"What''s going on?"


    Liza looked around, and her gazended on a huge pendulum clock on the wall.


    It gave a low, echoing chime. Debra looked over and saw it struck eight at night.


    A beam of light shone down onto a sofa on the second floor. Sitting on it was a masked man.


    Debra stared at him and had an oddly familiar feeling.


    Erica had the same feeling. "This guy..."


    "Wee to the party. I am the Lowe Group''s new president."


    The voice was so familiar that both Debra and Erica froze in shock.


    Liza patted them on the shoulder. "Is that Andrew''s brother? Did I hear wrong?"


    She didn''t know what was going on, but the new president turned out to be Jordan.


    Just a few days ago, when they saw the news, he hadn''t said anything.


    On the second floor, Jordan removed his mask, revealing a frosty face.


    Everyone stared at him in surprise because Jordan had disappeared from Seamar City for an entire year.


    He used to be reckless andzy. Somehow, he became the new president of the Lowe Group.


    It was incredible, given the fact that the Potters and the Lowes had always been rivals.


    "Jordan Potter? How could it be him?"


    "What''s going on? Did the Potter family take over the Lowe Group?"


    "I heard Jordan went missing for a year. How did he suddenly be the president of the Lowe Group?"


    The voices of doubt filled the air.


    Jordan stated, "I am Jordan, the new president of the Lowe Group. Also, 1 no longer have any ties with the Potter family." Content belo


    Debra couldn''t help butpare the Jordan from her previous life to the one before her now.


    In her past life, it would have taken


    Jordan several more years to


    Vol


    be the ruthless head of the Potter family. But now, everything seemed to have changed.


    Her mind was in turmoil. She didn''t know what had driven him to sever ties with the Potter family.


    Beside her, Erica was furious. "That brat. What''s he up to? I''m going to teach him a lesson."


    Debra quickly stopped her. "Hold on. There are guards around here. At least 30 of them are on both floors. Forget getting close to Jordan, we couldn''t even get near the second floor."


    Debra signaled her to look over. Eight were guarding the stairwell, and a dozen more were standing behind Jordan.


    Erica furrowed her brow. "He was faking it all this time, taking over the Lowe Group without even telling us."


    "There may be more to it. Perhaps, this is part of Andrew''s n," Debra said, trying to reassure her.


    Erica fell silent because it could be the case. She just didn''t understand why he was keeping it from them.


    Just as the three of them were unsure of what to do next, Barton burst into the hall.
