With that, the bigwigs waved each other goodbye and left Marley Hotel in their respective limousines.
In the blink of an eye, only Stanley, Andrew, Jeffred, Paige, and the Wynns—who crumbled to the
ground—were left in the spacious banquet hall.
Seeing how desolation now ruled the banquet hall’s initially lively atmosphere, Stanley got so
exasperated that he simply wished he could kill the Wynns. He glared daggers at Elijah, saying, “I
invited you guys here to meet Ares with the best of intentions, and you guys had to ruin my dinner!”
At this moment, the Wynns were already reduced to despair. With those bigwigs teaming up to punish
Clark Corporation, the company would surely be toast overnight, and the Wynns would be reduced
from a second-class family to an average well-to-do family. No, perhaps we won’t even make it as a
well-to-do family! They were so overwhelmed with regret that Stanley’s casual word of reproach could
no longer stir their emotions in the slightest.
Clarence let out a sigh before asking Henry, “Dad, what should we do about this…”
“What should we do…” Henry coughed heavily for a moment. Then, he said weakly, “What else can we
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdo? Those people aren’t gonna let off our family unless we can get Ares to forgive us!”
When Alex heard this, his eyes lit up at once. He suggested in a quavering voice, “Grandpa, Dad, let’s
find Ares and do everything possible to ask for his forgiveness… Perhaps Clark Corporation can still be
saved!”
“That’s a good idea…” Clarence let out a sigh. “But how are we gonna find him? How can we find such
a big gun easily?”
“Just pull a few strings and check the surveillance footage!” Alex pointed at the surveillance camera
outside the window. “This is the downtown area, where every nook and cranny is under surveillance!
As long as we carefully check the surveillance footage starting from the moment Ares left the parking
lot, we’ll surely find him!”
Upon listening to their conversation, Paige suddenly hit upon a strange idea. Could that lunatic old man
really be Ares? She recalled what Kingsley had said to the old man:
“Don’t worry, the entire Wynn Family will apologize to you!”
Wasn’t the situation right now developing in the way he had described? She had a flash of inspiration.
Don’t tell me… Kingsley is the real Ares?
As soon as the idea crossed her mind, she immediately shook her head. How can Kingsley possibly be
Ares, the God of War? He was Serena’s younger brother at the orphanage. And besides, he’s only
about four years my senior? How could he possibly be able to make numerous great achievements in
battle?
Just as her thoughts were in a whirl, the Wynns had made their resolution; they helped each other up
and were about to leave.
“Wait a minute!” Paige suddenly recalled that she hadn’t passed on the last sentence in the text
message sent to her by Lev. She said to a despondent Andrew standing nearby, “Young Master
Andrew, the order I just received contains a quote that’s directed toward you by Ares.”
Stanley and Andrew’s eyes widened simultaneously when they heard this. “What?!”
Trembling all over with excitement, Andrew asked, “W-What did he say…”
Stressing each word, Paige said, “Ares wants to say that he intended to tell you Boris Oakley’s
whereabouts tonight. Unfortunately, however, Alex kept him from doing that.” Then, she turned around

with a wave of her hand. “Alright, now that my mission today is over, just deal with the rest by
yourselves.”
“Uh… I gotta go, too…” Seeing how Andrew’s eyes were flashing fire, Jeffred gave a shiver. “President
Kean, let’s keep in touch…” Before his voice could fade, he had run out of the banquet hall in a flash.
Crack… Andrew cracked his knuckles while staring hard at Alex with bloodshot eyes. If looks could kill,
the latter might have been cut to pieces by this moment. Andrew’s lifetime career was tied to this time’s
academic forum, and he had never had a good night’s sleep for almost a month in order to search for
Boris. However, Alex angered Ares, the God of War. Not only did the Kean Family lose the opportunity
to enjoy a meteoric rise, but his career and his life were both ruined as a result!
At this moment, Andrew was so overwhelmed with hatred that he wished he could eat Alex alive.
Seeing how Andrew looked like he wanted to eat him alive, Alex took two steps back in fright. He asked
in fear, “Y-Young Master Andrew, what are you doing…”
“What am I doing?!” Andrew sneered. Then, taking a deep breath, he yelled, “Guys, cripple him!”
