At nightfall, the dutiful Christopher arrived at the Iverson Manor to have dinner with Lance.

The once lively banquet table was now desolate and quiet, with only the two of them remaining.

During the meal, Christopher told Lance about the Thompson family's situation. Lance slapped his thigh, laughing heartily. "Haha! I wondered why Wyatt hasn't been attending any events lately. Turns out, he is sick and in the ICU! He used to brag about his health to me. What a joke! With so many women around him, who wouldn't be worn out?"

Christopher lowered his eyes and sipped on his water.

"My good son, you have brought me fantastic news!" Lance laughed, raising his glass toward him. "With Wyatt down, the Thompson family and KS Group must be in chaos, trying to keep up appearances and stay calm. If we can finish off Asher as well, KS Group will be left without a leader. We will have the chance to avenge ourselves and wipe away our past humiliations!"

At that moment, a voice interrupted, "Dad! The opportunity has come for our Iverson Group!"

James, who had not shown his face in a long time, walked quickly into the dining room. Despite his efforts to restrain his expression, his lips twitched with excitement.

"James, what are you up to now?" Lance had completely lost faith in him and waved his hand impatiently. "I told you, you do not need to handle Iverson's affairs anymore. Christopher is enough. Also, have you packed your things? When are you planning to go and take over the branch in the Philippines?"
