Chapter 97 - 96: Don’t Take Advantage of Kindness
Michael Fuller gritted his teeth: "The downfall of the Fuller Family does you no good either. If you get bullied in the Gardiner Family, what will you do?"
"In these past three years, even without the downfall, I didn’t see you helping me with anything. In your eyes, I’m nothing but a sacrifice in a marriage-for-benefits exchange. The downfall of the Fuller Family, your downfall, both are a result of your own doing."
Florence Fuller didn’t see the need to perform some kind of dutiful daughter role for him. She stood up: "I’ll have my secretary draft a new stock transfer agreement with you. If you want to see the future of the Fuller Clan, you’ll need to relinquish the holdings in your hand. Think carefully."
After saying this, she took the signed divorce agreement from Michael and left first.
Michael Fuller’s expression turned grim and heavy.

Leapstride Equestrian Club.
Inside the semi-enclosed arena, a strong, black horse was being led at a leisurely pace around the field.
The black horse’s coat was shiny, with a fine head and high neck. Its limbs were strong, and its steps light and graceful—it was a prized Akhal-Teke horse. The man leading the horse had a tall and upright figure, and the black equestrian attire outlined his broad shoulders and narrow waist. He led the horse with a composed and noble demeanor, as the horse hung its head and followed at a gentle pace.
"Mr. Harper."
The stable staff ran quickly towards him: "The person has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Ethan Harper turned and looked towards the lounge on the upper floor ahead. Through the glass windows, even from a distance, the gazes of the two men locked, both sharp and intense, silently igniting sparks of conflict.
