The day after Isaac got caught, William made his way overseas with a bottle of what he imed was a miracle elixir. He was in the Pord family''s study, passionately pitching his product. "This has passed all our clinical trials without a hitch! We guarantee full aftercare, and I truly believe it could revolutionize the medical industry, especially for those grappling with psychological issues. You know how much we''ve invested in healthcare upfront, so naturally, ites with a higher price tag. But I''m sure Mr. Angelo won''t have a problem with that."


    William was practically rubbing his hands together in excitement.


    Meanwhile, Kiran was at his desk, giving his secretary a rundown of tasks. "Move this week''s meeting up by two days. Get the finance team to hurry up with the reports. The g kicks off at eight the day after tomorrow, so remind them about the suits. Do I need to jot everything down for you?"


    "My apologies, Mr. Angelo."


    The secretaries were bustling around, handling various tasks.


    Kiran focused on his work but nced up when he noticed William standing there. With a frown, he asked, "Sorry, what did you say just now?"


    William''s enthusiasm deted a bit.


    Was Kiran ignoring him on purpose?


    Despite his thoughts, William kept a calm facade. "Mr. Angelo, you''re swamped with work, but these psychological issues shouldn''t be overlooked. Maybe you''d like to give ourtest product a try..."


    He gestured towards Kiran, hoping he''d take the bait.


    Kiran replied coolly, "I don''t have any psychological issues."


    "Come on, you can''t just decide that on your own. What if there''s something


    there? We should be objective about these things!"


    William looked intently at Kiran.


    Kiran put his files down, shot William a nce, and asked, "What''s your overseas address, Dr. William?"


    "120 Peace Avenue."


    "Expect a letter from ourwyers soon."


    With that, Kiran went back to his paperwork. "Take care."


    "..."


    William''s mood took a nosedive.


    Awyer''s letter? Seriously?


    William knew Kiran had his pride, but he still


    The elixir bottle on the


    desk, saying, "Give it a shot, M


    Angelo. I''m sure you''ll see its value!"


    With that, William cheerfully exited Kiran''s study.


    The secretaries also left to handle their duties.


    Kiran''s eyes lingered on the bottle.


    William had misjudged this time.


    There might be others who needed that elixir, but not him. He''d experienced its


    effects twenty years ago.


    "Hey, big brother!"


    Sandy burst in, catching Kiran deep in his work.


    Sandy was clearly buzzing with excitement Can you believe Sophie and Colby are still pursuing ultimate romance at their age? I dropped them off on the ind and slipped away. Who knows what they re getting up to... hehe."


    Over the years, Sandy had developed a mischievous streak, thanks to Jenna.


    Her interest in gossip was now off the charts.


    Seeing Sandy in such high spirits, Kiran''s expression softened. "Thinking about tying the knot?"


    "Not really."


    Sandy lounged on the sofa, saying, "I''m tired of the overseas elites. Can you line up some top-tier guys-for me, like Colby or Adler? I want someone impressive for when I do decide to settle down."
