NovelEnglishChapter 0556 I The Zadras' charity dinner began promptly at seven p.m. the next evening, The Johansson Grand Hotel, the north's crown jewel with its seven-star status, was packed with the elite. Everyone qualified to attend that gala was a prominent figure from the north. Even average second-rate families did not reach the participation threshold. Only the top and second-tier elite families of the past could be at that gala, with seating arrangements determined by their family's wealth.
The Xanthos family was, of course, present.
Even with Ywain gone and the Callie Group out of their hands, their coffers were still brimming with billions—a cut above the competition.
"Mister Kane, you made it!"

She saw Caleb and Antoand I rushed over, her voice barely above a whisper, "This party has news written all I over it. Franklin has been talking tough, / and he might cafter you!" i Caleb's stride broke for a moment, and he chuckled dryly.
Franklin? A mere noble offspring was hardly a concern. He would not bat an eyelash at Franklin, let alone the entire Zadra family.
"My brother says the Black Maple Organization's leader, that enigmatic master, might just be a Zadra." Callie spilled the beans, her voice filled with urgency. "Mister Kane, you need to watch your back. Have you seen what that master could do with the Heavenly Silence Melody? Even Alex may not stand a chance if he's out for blood!"
The Heavenly Silence Melody? Caleb's hand instinctively moved to his chest, and a steely resolve flashed-across his face.
I If the Black Maple's master were truly I from the Zadra family, that would be a stroke of luck! Should he dare to strike, it would be the ideal tto clear the slate of all past and present scores! "Mister Kane!" A few steps away, a group approached with purpose. The man in the lead was built like a tank and wore a sleek black robe. He was accompanied by the Foster family's young hotshot—Raidon. It was none other than the Foster family's leader, Geoff! He took a quick look at the hotel entrance before facing Caleb, his smile more of a grimace. "Why is Alexander not with you? Raidon mentioned a misunderstanding between him and Alexander. It appears
"that today is the perfect day to set things right." A misunderstanding? Caleb could not help but chuckle.
I The whole incident at Xanthos Industrial I Park, where Alexander ordered the janitors to throw Raidon in the trash, was the talk of the town up north. Caleb knew the score.
Raidon was the architect of his own humiliation! Alexander is a rising star, not at all like my boy. They might share a last name, but that's where the similarities end." Caleb remained stoic, deftly steering the conversation away before turning to Raidon and softly saying, "I heard about your beef with Alexander Kane.
"You know, it's better to bury the hatchet than to let bad blood brew. Find a chance to make amends, to downsize a mountain
to amolehill. If you keep this grudge burning, it won't do the Foster family any favors!" 'Are you sticking up for Alexander?!" A thought crossed Raidon's mind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI Raidon's jaw clenched in rage, his face a mask of defiance. "Mister Kane, after 15 years with my aunt, don't you understand how the Fosters operate? Nobody can push us around, not even the Kanes! "You can play dumb all you want, but I know Alexander is your kid! Just wait till I get my shot. I'll—" Whack! A slap cout of nowhere, stinging Raidon's cheek mercilessly! "Raidon!" Geoff's hand slowly retracted as he stared at Raidon's red mark, his voice icy. "The head of the Kane family is part of our family! Watch your mouth and show
I srespect." "You shall serve him drinks tonight—a I way of apology." - He had to serve Caleb drinks? I Raidon gritted his teeth and swallowed I his pride. He refused to cross Geoff. He contained his rage and bowed deeply to Caleb. "Mister Kane, my apologies!" "Let it go." Caleb dismissed it with a nonchalant wave, nodded to Callie, and then walked beside Geoff, slowly approaching the hotel lobby.
Little did anyone know...
As Caleb and Geoff crossed the threshold into the grand lobby, Franklin was already there, rooted to the spot and staring at them. He quietly pressed the button on his earpiece.
I "Caleb and Geoff are here. Tto make
I our move."
