Ophelia was barely hanging on; her heart was racing like it might explode. The veins on her forehead were

throbbing, and she didn't even have the strength to make a fist

She opened her mouth, but her throat was so tight that she couldn't make any sound.

The woman, clutching her chest, slowly moved closer. She sail, Please, Ms. Spencer"

In the banquet hall, Xander formally introduced Noah as the next president to everyone.

One remarked, "As expected, Mr. West's son is truly exceptional

Another person chimed in. "He definitely lives up to being Mr. West's son."

Praises were everywhere, with speople trying to curry favor while others were envious.

Noah was dressed in a black suit with perfect proportions; when he kept his mouth closed, his natural charisma

and strong presence were undeniable

But his frequent eye blinking, noticeable only to Kenneth, showed his lack of confidence. Noah wished it would all

end soon.

Luckily, Xander only let Noah be in the spotlight without giving him a chance to speak; otherwise, Noah might

have embarrassed himself.

Kenneth glanced at his watch and frowned, noticing there wasn'emuch traffic near the restrooms. He thought,

'Why hasn't Ophelia cout yet? He turned and headed to the restroom.

Phoebe asked, "Kenneth, where are you headed? What about Ophelia?" She stepped in Kenneth's path and

glanced behind him

Kenneth gave Phoebe a cold glance, examining her for a couple of seconds. He pressed his tongue against his

molars, then ignored her and strode towards the restrooms. Kenneth shouted, "Are you inside. Ophelia?"

The bathroom was silent, with no response.

Kenneth didn't care if anyone was inside; he opened each door to check. He called, "Elia.."

The entire bathroom emply.

Kenneth clenched his bark teeth, his jaw muscles twitching slightly, with a hidden fury in his eyes. He turned

around and headed back to the ballroom

Everyone watched as an enraged Kenneth grabbed Phoebe by the neck.

Kenneth asked, "Phoebe, where's Ophelia? Didn't | warn you? How dared you mess with my people? Have you

considered the consequences?"

Phoebe said, "Kenneth, w-what are you talking about? 1-1 don't understand." She instinctively tightened her grip

on Kenneth's arm, her pale face quickly turning red

As her breath becweaker, her grip loosened. For a moment she believed Kenneth, who was out of mind,

might strangle ber. She called, "Kenneth..."

Kenneth suddenly let go of Phoebe.

Feeling dizzy, Phoebe twisted her ankle and fell onto the table beside her, pulling the tablecloth with her. Glasses

and desserts clattered to the floor along with the tablecloth. The noise was so loud it attracted the attention of

the entire hallmom.

Kenneth took out a gray handkerchief and wiped his hands that had touched Phoebe.

ware

Seeing this, Phoebe looked hurt, her chest aching badly. With jears in her eyes, she asked, "Cough, cough...

Kenneth, why are you treatinglike this?"

Kenneth shot Phoebe a cold glance, his face full of disdain. He threw the handkerchief he used onto the floor and

stepped on it with his polished black leather shoe. Phoebe said. "Kenneth. | love you. But it doesn't mean you

can trample all over my feelings like this?"

The entire hall was so quiet one could hear a pin drop. Kenneth reputation was known to sand witnessed by

others, leaving no one brave enough to step forward. Kenneth said, "Sparethe disgust. His voice was icy cold

as he instructed the bodyguard, "Take her back and ask the Davidson family how much her life is worth." At the

mention of the Davidson family, Xander glanced at Noah beside him. Seeing that Noah had no reaction, Xander

slowly stepped forward.

As the president, it was essential for Xander to find out what was happening in situations like this. After all, when

Kenneth, got angry, the entire Heloria would feel the tremor. Xander called. "Kenneth"

Kenneth ignored Xander and looked toward Victor on the second floor. He let out a cold chuckle and said. The

military defense system isn't that impressive. He was mocking Victor. Xander's face darkened, wondering what

this meant. He asked, What's happened, Kenneth? Let's go upstairs to talk."

"No need Kenneth said as he turned and left the banquet hall.

The bodyguards behind him held Phoebe by her arms.

Phoebe asked, "Kenneth, do you really have to treatlike this?

Just as they left the banquet hall and before going down the stairs, Ray and Eric hurried to stand in front of

Kenneth, taking two steps at a time.

Ray glanced at the banquet hall, not understanding what was happening. He didn't see Ophelia, but he noticed

the bodyguards dragging Phoebe out.

Feeling a bad premonition, he lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Sinclair, the cargo at Nirvana Harbor was

intercepted"

Kenneth's eyes were cold and unfathomably deep. He thought, Good. | knew who did it. He instructed, "Find

Jonathan's Jocation

Hearing Jonathan's name, Ray's heart skipped a beat, and his expression showed slight discomfort. He said. "Mr.

Sinclair, actually, Mrs. Sinclair had a brief encounter with Mr. Davidson before

Kenneth narrowed his eyes. He immediately turned his gaze to Ray, his expression fierce as if he was ready to

eat someone alive. He asked, "Why didn't you mention this earlier?"

Ray swallowed and lowered his head.

Eric said. "Elia isn't a criminal, and you're not her father, so why should Ray report everything about Elia to you?

You never seem to believe that Elia can take care of herself. Didn't she do dine all those years without you? Eric's

eyes were full of confusion, his hands in his pockets, showing no fear of Kenneth.

Ray frowned as he noticed Kenneth's increasingly grim expressip. He led pulled Eric aside and said, "Shut up."

Then he said to Kenneth. "Mr. Sinclair, I'll take the punishment willingly. Eric doesn't know any better, please

don't take it

out on him.

"Why should there be punishment for something so trivial? Erie said, sounding like a child who didn't understand.

"Are you out of your mind? Ray asked as his eyes flashed a warning.

Eric glanced disdainfully at Ray, but he had no intention of stopping. He continued, "Someone kidnapped Elia,

and it's no coincidence that a shipment was intercepted at Nirvana Harbor

"It's an attempt to throw you into chaos. If you rush to rescue Elia now, you are just falling into their trap. You

must have faith in Elia

"She's the type of person who hates causing trouble for others and wouldn't want to be your weak spot. That last

part was directed at Kenneth

On the other side, inside a vintage mansion hidden among tall green plants, Ophelia was led by a woman into a

dimly lit study

The tone of the study was incredibly oppressive, and a man was sitting on an armchair. He was dressed in a gray

suit, with the collar of his black shirt set with a blue gem that gleamed even in the low light. He held a black cat

in his arms. And there was a distinctive dimple on his slightly raised chin.

The woman said, "Mr. Davidson, the person has been brought in

Ophelia watched the figure from a distance. She thought, Mr. Davidson? He is the second son of the Davidson

family, Jonathan

Ophelia couldn't speak now; her arms and legs felt as limp as jelly. Seeing Jonathan sent a wave of unease

through her heart. She wondered, "Why did he bring her here!
