Mack was infuriated by his words. "If you want to leave, fine. But give me five million kyrts, and findesse to treat Felipe''s heart condition Then I''ll let you go immediately!


    Do you think our Cherry family is dependent on you, that we can''t do withour you Even for a heart transnt, there we plenty of underground organ dealers in the back market. As long as you pay, there''s nothing you can''t buy


    Mack spoke with confidence. He only valued Cassian because of the blood rtion between Cascian and Felipe. This connection would minimize the risk of rejection during the heart transnt.


    "I just need to pay and find a doctor to treat Felipe, and then you''ll let me go? Camian''s eyes shifted thoughtfully it seemed as though he was weighing his options. He prided himself on his cleverness, unlike the primary personality, that arrogant fool, and he certainly wouldn''t make a deal that ended in a loss.


    Before Mack could respond, Felipe scoffed, "Who gave you the confidence to think you can afford five million kyrter If you coulde up with that amount, anything would be possible!"


    He thought, ''Putting aside finding a skilled doctor, Cassian can''t evennd a proper job in Forreb. How could be possiblye up with five million kyrts?


    "You must have seen how the Sutton family''s daughter values me, thinking you could also get her 15 million dors in engagement gifts. People like you aren''t even qualified to be a son-inw?"


    Felipe was still excited about getting engaged to the Sutton family''s daughter, but he couldn''t have imagined that the person he was supposed to marry wasn''t her. As for the 1.5 million in engagement gifts, it wasn''t meant for him either.


    The truth was, Mack had never considered the possibility of someone being interested in Cassian and mistakenly assumed Felipe had earned Julio''s favor.


    At that moment, the doorbell of the Cherry family''s vi rang. "Mr. Cherry, the butler from the Barrera family, has arrived, the servant immediately reported to everyone after recognizing the visitor.


    "The butler from the Barrera family?" Mack looked surprised. Just as he was about to ask for more details, he saw a farmiliar figure approaching. Startled, he quickly stood up to greet them. "Isn''t this the butler from the Barrera family? What brings you here?"


    He couldn''t help but wonder, The Barrera family is a prestigious and well-known family in Frihamen City. Why would they send a butler here?


    "Mr. Dangelo and Mr. Brecken Barrera sent me to deliver gifts to the son of Tuesday. Edward Byrne''s words made everyone instinctively turn their gaze toward Felipe.


    He couldn''t make sense of it. The Cherry family had no connection with the Barreras, so the sudden delivery of gifts seemed unusual. Perhaps someone in the Barrera family had taken an interest in Felipe.


    Dangelo only had one grandson, but the attention might havee from a youngdy in a coteral branch of the family. The Barrera family was a powerful and influential household, with many coteral rtives. Even if the interest didn''te from a direct heiress, anyone from that lineage still held a status far beyond that of an average family.


    Mack looked like a starving wolf catching sight of prey, his excitement barely contained as he pressed on eagerly. "What made Mr. Barrera send a gift to Felipe? Has he taken a liking to him?"


    Edward felt a flicker of disdain, though his expression remainedposed. With a polite smile, he replied courteously. "You''ve misunderstood. Mr. Barrera is delivering this gift for Mr. Cherry''s fiancée."


    He didn''t know Tuesday''s son''s name, but since she had married into the Cherry family, it was safe to assume her son also carried the Cherry name.

    "Mr. Cherry''s fiancée is a remarkable woman-both beautiful and aplished, he said respectfully. Even Mr. Barrera has expressed interest in building a connection with her, so he asked me to deliver this modest gift. As soon as Edward finished speaking, he gestured behind him.


    Immediately, several bodyguards stepped forward, each carrying a gift box. In full view of the Cherry family, they opened the boxes individually, inside exquisite jewelry, rare herbs, and other luxury items worth at least 30 thousand dors-the final box contained neatly stacked bundles of thick and substantial cash


    Mack stared in stunned silence, his eyes wide and his breathing growing rapid as he took in the sight. After delivering the congrattory gifts, Edward didn''t linger. He turned to leave with his men with the same calmposure, leaving the Cherry family in disbelief.


    Mack hurried forward to inspect the gifts, his entire body excitedly trembling. "The Barrera family!" he eximed. "These are gifts from the Barrera family!"
