“Nothing. She just told me to treat you well,” Xavier answered. He wasn’t afraid of Kiki’s threats at all. He just wasn’t sure if he was more important to Yvette or if Kiki was more important to her. Then, Yvette realized Kiki was most likely feeling restless after hearing what she had said last night.
“The pierogies are ready. Go have some now.” After saying that, she looked in the direction Kiki had driven off, a warm feeling spreading through her.
While they were eating, Xavier told Yvette that he had started a new company. Kiki’s visit that day made him realize he couldn’t keep pretending to be broke. So, he had to put an end to the lie. “What kind of company is it?” she asked.
“A foreign trading company.”
Previously, Titan Corporation had slowly became greater because Xavier had started doing foreign trades.
She remembered how tough it had been when he had first started dealing with foreign business partners. Everyone had picked on him for being young.
Some people had even boldly snatched his business. Those who couldn’t do it would use dirty tricks and send someone to end his life.
“Are you confident about this?” If Xavier hadn’t lost his memories, she wouldn’t be worried at all.
His hand froze for a moment as he held his spoon. “Of course.” Then, he realized that she might be worried about him, so he added, “Mark will help me again.” “That’s good.”
Meanwhile, Noah couldn’t help feeling jealous as he watched the two of them happily chatting. “Mom, when I grow up, I’ll start a company as well.”
Actually, he had a secret all along, and he had never told Yvette about it. He was worried that she wouldn’t let him continue with it if she learned about it.
She smiled and said, “Alright. I’m sure you’ll be a great boss one day.”
“Yeah.” He nodded. As expected, a child like him was easy to coax.
Just as they were happily having the pierogies, an uninvited guest came in and gave out various instructions. “Place the vases here. Get rid of the flowers there…”
An elderly man with gray hair and a suit was assigning tasks to the workers. Yvette hadn’t seen him for a long time. “What are you doing, Luther?”
There were three main butlers in the Lane family, and Luther was one of them. He was the main butler assigned to take care of Shannon’s family.
Last year, Xavier had sent his daughter, Lynn, abroad after discovering how she had humiliated Yvette. Ever since then, Luther had been laying low. In every gathering the Lane family had, he would just do his job properly.
“Madam Shannon told me to redecorate the place for Christmas, Mrs. Lane. The redecoration inside is just the beginning.” When he.

After he was done explaining, he started giving out commands again. He was ready to change the entire look of the mansion. Yvette knew Shannon was doing it on purpose
after she had offended the latter last night.
Since he said the redecoration was just the beginning, that meant Shannon was going to change the people living there next.
Yvette didn’t care, and she just continued having the pierogies with Noah and Xavier.
However, Xavier put down his cutlery. “Luther.”
Hearing his cold voice, Luther’s fear resurfaced once more. He stood still and said, “Yes, Mr. Lane?”
“Return the place to how it was before,” Xavier said. He might not be the head of the Lane family anymore, but Luther still couldn’t help being afraid when facing him. Luther bit the bullet and said, “Mr. Lane, these are Madam Shannon’s orders.”
Lynn had been forced to suffer in another country because of Yvette and Xavier. Since he finally had a chance to get his revenge, there was no way he would let it go that easily.
