Sophia was shocked. She only knew that Quinton had helped Stanley take down Blade, but she was not aware that he was still in Cethos.

Quinton replied, “I can save on flight tickets if I take your plane out of the country.”

He boarded the plane as if he still had something to say to her. However, Michael stretched out a slender arm and blocked him fiercely. “Your room is on that side.”

As he spoke, he pointed to a remote corner of the plane. He had arranged a room and a seat for Quinton. Thus, Quinton could only reluctantly take his luggage and head toward his seat.

After that, he led Sophia to their room. Despite the existence of a hindrance like Quinton, it couldn’t stop his long-awaited plans to join the mile high club. As the oxygen content at such a high altitude was much lower than on the surface, one’s blood vessels would dilate, making them more prone to arousal. For that reason, it was the best time to have sex. I’m going to join the mile-high club!

Sophia felt that it was rather embarrassing to be playing these tricks despite being an old married couple. Still, we’re already here, and the game is set. It’s a waste not to enjoy ourselves; we might as well do it. After making love for a long time, she became tired and lay on the bed to rest.

Getting out of bed, Michael went to get some water in his birthday suit. When he came back, he noticed a project proposal lying on her work table. It was titled ‘Proposal to Develop Pet Luxury Goods in Cooperation With the Ronney Group’.

The Yard Family?” Upon seeing the words ‘the Ronney Family’, he scowled fiercely with a trace of

disgusted expression on his face as he stared at the words ‘Ronney Group’ was as if he had swallowed a dead

financial conglomerate. Its strength was comparable to that of the Michel Group. The family behind the Ronney Group was a Cethosian family—the Yard Family—that was said to be an ancient family that migrated from Cethos. They fared the best out of all the Cethosians that had migrated abroad—so much so that they controlled the parliament of the country they were located in. Moreover, they operated many luxury brands. For example, L/K was one

 

Ronney Group to develop a series of pet luxury goods. For that reason, she was going abroad to officially discuss this business plan. If the discussion went smoothly, Pourl would officially take its first steps into the international market. However, Cooper had shown a similar expression of disgust when he heard that she was going

only had that one word to describe it. He lightly dropped the cooperation proposal on the table. Climbing into bed, he hugged her close and gave her a lecture on the origins of the Ronney Family and the Yard Family. “The Yard Family originated from the river basin of the Lombardi River in Cethos. They claim to be descendants of Lady Lombardi, who was part of the former imperial family which established imperial power and ruled over Cethos more than 700 years ago. Their regime lasted for more than 300 years. At the time, Cethos’ borders were vast, and it was rich in natural resources. It was the richest country in the world. However, the last emperor of the Ronney Family 300 years ago was unspeakably brutal. As a result, the peasants raised an army, started a revolt, and built the previous dynasty. Before the peasant army invaded the capital, a total of 100,000 civil and military officials of the Yard Family and the imperial court entered the sea by way of the Lombardi River and escaped overseas. Back then, the Yard Family monopolized the most advanced textile and porcelain technology in the world. It was the private property of the imperial family. Even now, that technology is lost to Cethos. Using these technologies, they created a stable foothold for themselves abroad, became a hegemon, and took control of the

of the previous dynasty and the declining state of Cethos. Claiming that they were the legitimate Cethos imperial family, they colluded with foreigners to invade Cethos in an attempt to seize the country and restore it.” As he spoke, his expression was full of hatred. “Back when the Eight-Nation Alliance and the Eleven-Nation Alliance invaded Cethos, they were manipulated by the Yard Family from the shadows. They held power in various countries’ parliaments and did not hesitate to work with foreigners to regain

At the time, the foreigners had invaded the capital city of the previous dynasty. They even stole the Imperial Seal of Cethos. Therefore, the regime of the former dynasty collapsed, and Cethos was completely subjugated. Thinking that their chance was here, the Yard Family was about to return in force when the people rose up in resistance. The unprecedented

years, the Yard Family slowly began to re-establish contact with Cethos, bit by bit, following economic globalization. As such, several brands managed to enter the country. Retaking the country was impossible now, and the Yard Family had firmly established themselves overseas anyway. However, they were not willing to give up on the Cethosian market.
