“Please, just give me one more chance! I promise to turn over a new leaf and lead the Weller family responsibly,” Harvey pleaded, his forehead nearly touching the floor.
The two elders exchanged glances, their eyes burning with a desire to punish him severely. However, there was no escaping the reality–Harvey was Kane’s only heir.
If they removed him, the Weller family would need to choose a new head, and frankly, there was not anyone else who seemed even remotely suitable.
Though Harvey was reckless and immoral, he had proven competent as the family leader. The recent surge in profits from their wellness products was his doing, helping to pull the family out of a dire financial crisis.
“Fine, get up,” Ian said in frustration. It was as if he speaking to an utter disappointment. “Having someone like you as head of the family is a disgrace, but it’s our misfortune, not yours.”
Ted gritted his teeth. “But listen carefully, you pathetic fool. You may remain as the family head, but your disgraceful relationship with Serena ends now. If we ever find out that you continued this filth, it won’t just be Serena who pays the price–you’ll both die!”
Harvey nodded fervently. “Rest assured. I’ll cut all ties with Serena immediately. I swear I’ll never see her again.”
The elders gave their orders. “Take Serena to the late patriarch’s grave. She will serve as a mourner for three years, and under no circumstances is she to leave before then.”
As Serena was dragged away, her face streaked with tears, Harvey lowered his gaze. His heart was full of regret—not for his actions, but for losing his “delightfully indulgent” Serena.
Ian scowled. “The Weller family is already on the brink of ruin, ridiculed by everyone. Harvey, as head of the family, it’s your job to restore our reputation. If you fail, we’ll have no choice but to replace you!
Ted snorted. “I’ve come out of seclusion stronger than ever, having reached the senior grandmaster level. The Weller family will no longer tolerate shame or weakness. From now on, we’ll crush anyone who stands in our way–including that little punk Andrew. I’ll kill him with one strike if I must.”
Harvey’s expression brightened with glee. “You’ve reached the senior grandmaster

level? That’s incredible! This changes everything. With your strength, the Weller family can dominate without resistance!”
“Wow, this Weller family scandal is absolutely insane!” Andrew chuckled, sitting comfortably in Lauren’s office as he scrolled through the internet, where the Weller family’s disgrace had gone viral.
Eunice, Lauren’s secretary, scoffed. “Serves them right. What goes around, comes around. That Harvey is being torn to shreds online!”
Lauren smiled. “I can’t imagine how Harvey will ever show his face in public again after this.”
Eunice rolled her eyes. “How? He’ll probably skulk around like a rat in the gutter, avoiding everyone!”
Lauren’s gaze shifted briefly to Andrew, her expression unreadable. Then, she instructed Eunice, “The morning meeting is about to start. Go get everything ready. I need to have a word with Mr. Lloyd.”
Eunice blushed. While she was reluctant, she stood and left the room. She could not help feeling awkward whenever she thought about Lauren and Andrew having their private chats–they always seemed far too cozy.
As the door shut behind her, Lauren turned to Andrew, her expression serious. “Dr. Lloyd, tell me the truth. Did Mr. Yates send you to infiltrate Rhodes Corporation and target me?”
