Chapter 96

Author's POV:

The atmosphere in the Huang Chenglong villa during dinnertime was thick with tension and resentment. The lavish dining room should have been a setting for familial warmth, but the scowls etched on each face spoke of jealousy and greed.

Huang Kun looked up from his plate, young eyes already shadowed with calculation. "Grandpa, what will happen now? We've waited so long to take over the Huang estate, but this...what's her name...Huang Yanyan girl comes and whisks it all away from us?"
