In the chairman's office today, Lance nearly wrecked his entire office in front of his two remaining sons.

"Was your brain eaten by a dog or something? Forced demolitions are illegal in our country, and yet you dared to do it overseas! Do you think there are no police or governments in other countries?!" Lance gritted his teeth and jabbed James' forehead with his finger angrily, forcing him to retreat step by step. "You pig brain! You're even dumber than a pig! Are you trying to drag the Iverson family down even more?!" Christopher stood to the side, lightly adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses and smiling sinisterly.

James' face turned red with shand anger, his dignity completely destroyed by his father's scolding. But he refused to accept it and angrily said, "Dad! We were set up by Asher! The land he transferred towas problematic from the start! He set a trap for me!" Lance frowned deeply upon hearing this.

"James, it's not your first day in the business world. Before signing the contract, didn't you send someone to conduct an on-site inspection?" Christopher asked, shaking his head in disbelief.

"Why did you just take Asher's word for it? Do you trust him that much?" James glared at him with rage. His gums ached from clenching his teeth so tightly. He had been too eager to gain credit in front of his father. In his desperation to outshine Christopher, it led him to make such a rookie mistake and fall into Asher's trap.

How could the Thompson family give away such valuable land just because of a mere secretary? James thought bitterly, 'If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. The slice of heavenly pie could very well be a deadly trap!' "Christopher is right. Did you not use your brain at all? No wonder you've been the CEO for so many years and still can't compete with that kid from the Thompson family!" What Christopher said caused Lance's resentment toward his eldest son to grow even stronger.

"James, it's not a big deal that the land Asher transferred to you has issues. You could have ctoor Dad to discuss it. I've investigated that land Building a resort isn't the best option. It would be better to build a golf course to serve the high-end political and business elites ofTerranova. This would greatly benefit Iverson Group's future development and networking in Terranova." Christopher sighed helplessly. "Unfortunately, you never trust me. You always assI'm out to harm you. Although we're not born from the smother, we're still brothers. Why would I want to harm you?" James glared at his feigned innocent face, almost bursting with rage. 'This evil bastard, who has already forced Astrid and Charles to death, still has the audacity to play the pity card.' "Everything I do is for this family, for I the Iverson Group. So, James, I hope you won't act on your own in the future. You should discuss Vene strategies with us more often. This way, we won't be so passive against the Thompson family." S "Why didn't you tellearlier if you had already investigated that land?!" James roared angrily at Christopher, his embarrassment turning into rage. "I know exactly what you're up to! You're just trying to humiliate me. You just want to see the whole Iverson family fall into chaos! Christopher, you're truly cunning! The last person who wants the Iverson Group to thrive is you!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lance's eyes blazed with anger. He raised his arm and slapped James hard across the face. "Idiot! Even at this moment, you're still trying to make excuses and accuse Christopher?!" James clutched his swollen face, filled with disbelief and anger. "Dad... Are you blind?! Can't you see who is truly loyal to you and who genuinely wants the best for Iverson Group? Can't you see at all?!" "I only judge based on the results! Since Christopher returned from Sentania, he has helpedcountless times and resolved numerous problems for the Iverson Group. I've seen it all with my own eyes!" Lance pointed at James' face with resentment. "As for you, not only did you fail to save Charles, but you also repeatedly made wrong decisions and caused trouble for the Iverson Group! You're nothing but a useless fool!"
