Chapter 78: With Me Here, Nothing Will Go Wrong
Alex exited the villa, a dark cloud of resentment trailing behind him. He paused, casting a venomous glance over his shoulder.
"Christopher... You’re aligning yourself with the academy, aren’t you? We’ll see how long that lasts when they turn their backs on you." He muttered, the words laced with a chilling promise, before striding towards his waiting car, Danzig and the bodyguards flanking him like shadows.

Inside the villa, the air crackled with tension. Ethan paced the living room, his brow furrowed with worry. Amara sat on the sofa, her face etched with concern. Katherine and Adonis exchanged anxious glances.
"Mum, Dad... There’s no need for you to worry so much. Alex can’t touch us, not with me here. Nothing bad will happen," Christopher reassured them, his voice calm but firm.
Ethan stopped pacing and sighed heavily. "What are you talking about, Christopher? You don’t understand the intricacies of business. We offended Alex today, and he won’t let it slide. He won’t attack us directly, of course, but he’ll target our businesses, and we’ll suffer heavy losses."
Christopher paused, his gaze thoughtful. "Dad, Michael is coming in three days. I’ll ask him to bring a business contract. What do you think?"
"Michael? Who’s Michael?" Ethan asked, his confusion evident.
"Dad, the Michael Christopher is referring to is Michael C+, the owner of Electroplus Enterprises, the number one business giant in electronics," Adonis interjected quickly.
Ethan’s eyes widened. "What?! How do you know him?" He turned to Christopher, his voice filled with disbelief.
Before Christopher could answer, Adonis stood up, his voice ringing with excitement. "Mum! Dad! And my beautiful little sister! Brother Christopher claims to be the boss of all companies whose names end with C+! That means Electroplus Enterprises C+ belongs to him!"
