A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 74 Midnight Bazaar and Fireworks Money

The four eventually made it to the ‘Happiness Restaurant, which was across the street from their hotel, For the locals, it had a long history. Many luxury cars were parked in front of the restaurant, and there was a long line of people waiting to eat there.

However, Tristan had reserved the beste room, so there was no need for them to queue. The ambiance was fantastic, and they could see the scenery outside the restaurant from inside the private room. A huge lake could be seen not far away, and the vast body of glistening blue water was exquisitely colored with shades of red by the setting sun.

At this time, William showed Tia the video

Thomas that they had taken carlier. Tia laughed boisterously after watching it. “Good! Thomas had been a pain on my father’s side for a long time, and it was his idea to marry me to Josh. He was an evil man through and through.”

William responded, “It seems that the Lloyds‘ situation is very complicated. How do you plan to deal with this matter?”

Tia scoffed upon hearing that. “I don’t need to deal with it. Tristan killed Thomas. If they had the guts, they would seek revenge on Tristan.”

William then asked about the situation of the Lloyd Family, and Tia replied truthfully. It turned out that the Lloyd Family was one of the four prestigious families in Justford, with assets totaling more than 30 billion. There were three wives, the eldest, the second, and the third.

Turner, the second wife’s son, had no social standing. Although he had put in a lot of effort since he was young, he received zero affirmation. In the end, he decided to live life however he wanted.

Ruby Jenkins, the eldest wife, wielded the most power. The Jenkins Family was wealthy and had a long history in Justford. Without their help, the Lloyds rise to power would not have been possible. As a result, Ruby held a unique position within the Lloyd Family, and Theodore, Tia’s grandfather, only valued her opinions.

Ruby gave birth to a daughter and two sons. They controlled the Lloyds‘ core industry, along with her younger brother and nephews, and were the true senior management of the Lloyd Family.

The third wife, in contrast, only had one daughter, who later got married and moved far away from the Lloyds. Suffice to say, she was somewhat of a wallflower.

According to Tia, the Jenkins were ‘foreign relatives‘ who were currently in control of the Lloyd Family, Turner had been silenced by said relatives, so he wouldn’t be able to achieve any great heights at all.

When William heard this, he finally realized why Turner was trying to find an alternative route. “Uncle Lloyd is trying to use the 1.5 billion as a chip in order to break free from his chains. That way, he wouldn’t have to bother with Ruby anymore, is that right?” he questioned.

Tia laughed. “It’s all thanks to my brother. What my dad and I tried to do was to work with Kane to complete the Ivory Dragon Cove/project.”
