Dreamboat and my guesthouse helped me carn a lot of money.
But that wasn’t enough for me.
I took some money to buy stocks.
Someone might think that was a risky move.
But in reality, I entered this circle with my father when I wast twelve.
Before marrying Corey, my dream was to become a successful business tycoon.
Over the years, I used my money to generate more money.
Later, I gritted my teeth and acquired several major companies of my Colton family.
I wanted to regain the old glory of my parents.
But I kept a low profile. People in the circle knew that I did a lot, but they hadn’t been able to find any information about me.
Not long ago, I heard from a friend that there would be a business exchange meeting in Capital.
an opportunity for me.
my second–handed man.
Mia had also grown quite a bit. She became livelier and more energetic, and she grew clingier to me.
She lacked maternal love in her life.
I also liked to have a lovely girl beside me.
Therefore, I chose to take Brian and Mia with me when I traveled to Capital.
Before leaving, I heard that Brian didn’t even sleep well all night.
Looking at the prominent exhaustion under his eyes, I couldn’t help
but chuckle.
“Don’t be nervous. It’s just a business exchange meeting. It’s time for our Dreamboat to shine in front of others.”

I smiled again and pinched Mia’s check.
“Maybe Brian will find you a wife on this trip.”
I caught a glimpse of the hope in Brian’s eyes, fading little by little.
He pursed his lips, and his hands resting on his knees clenched. slightly. He looked somewhat dejected.
I sighed silently.
I couldn’t help it. I had way passed the age of having fantasies about love.
If Brian confessed his love to me, I would probably disappoint
him.
Brian was indeed a great guy.
I just didn’t like him.
When I returned to Capital, the first I did was to attend a class
reunion.
It had been more than ten years since I last participated.
Many people heard about what happened to my family.
Although people in the circle did indeed judge others based on

My primary purpose was to collect as much information as possible.
I intended to set up the headquarters of Dreamboat in Capital.
But I had been away for so long, and the situation was not clear for
- me.
In addition, I was also thinking about rebuilding my family’s business empire.
I needed to know my enemies before I defeate
them.
After all, the people who appeared at this class reunion represented half of Capital’s elites.
After some small talk, the host for this class reunion was also
decided.
The most influential person, Ms. Quinn from the Quinn family, in the present was only sitting in the chair next to the main seats.
