This old man has such a difficult appetite to please.

Roxy Jenkins muttered to herself, looking at the elderly man in front of her, whose face had aged but his body still robust.

"My plan cannot be disrupted. Roxy, you grew up under my watch, you should know my temper."

Luke Perkins allowed Roxy Jenkins to dismiss the others, giving her ample respect.

In his heart, these two were the ones who would inherit his business. Even though he was willing to turn a blind eye to certain matters, he didn't want them to think that he was completely oblivious and cause more disruptions to his plan.

Luke Perkins' stubbornness was perhaps due to this - his invincibility in the marketplace came from his carefully calculated steps and far-sightedness.

Planning and strategizing were things he did when he was younger; now that he was older, he preferred controlling and manipulating situations.
