"Hehe, punk, you must be wondering why I'm calling you instead of Luna Sears. Do you remember what happened not long ago?" A slightly arrogant voice came through Christopher Yard's ear. This voice belonged to Morton Goodman, the one who had been threatening him before. Christopher Yard narrowed his eyes slightly. According to reason, it should be Luna Sears who was being targeted, not him. In The Serenade, his apparent identity was indeed a small Mr. Cook. But recently, someone had been specifically targeting him. If the Gu family was involved with Morton Goodman, and Morton Goodman came to find him, Christopher Yard had no doubt about it, especially since Morton Goodman had been trying to deal with him all along. "Speak up, what do you want?" Christopher Yard sneered. For now, let's not talk about Noah Turner. Even if it was Luna Sears, he knew quite a few upper-class individuals, such as Mr. Reynolds from last time, which definitely included certain officials. Christopher Yard didn't believe that Luna Sears would just surrender. Of course, Christopher Yard was prepared to take responsibility for this matter. After all, it was because of him that this happened. Moreover, he didn't have a good impression of those who dared to obstruct him from earning a thumbs-up. Upon hearing this, Morton Goodman on the other end showed a mysterious smile. "I don't want to do anything. Just tell Luna Sears about the written agreement for the demolition. Let her come. Of course, it would be best if you come too. Come tomorrow, and I will inform Luna Sears of the location. Someone from Wanbao Real Estate wants to meet you." Morton Goodman seemed to know Christopher Yard's identity and hung up the phone directly after speaking. Taking a deep breath, Christopher Yard's grip on the phone tightened slightly. It seemed that Morton Goodman thought he had everything under control. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so confident. However, Morton Goodman thought he had his ways, having already cooperated with the Gu family. Christopher Yard also had his own methods. Who would intimidate whom in the end was another matter. After hanging up the phone, Christopher Yard was about to say something, but before he could speak, Luna Sears's face showed a slightly anxious expression. "Are the people from the Gu family really targeting your company?" Christopher Yard was stunned by her words, then sighed and shook his head. "I'm afraid the Gu family is just a pawn in their hands. Behind the Gu family, there are probably more important people. I don't know why they are targeting me either!" Listening to Luna Sears and Christopher Yard talk for so long, Scarlett Sparks couldn't help but pout. "That Morton Goodman, I think I know him. He called me last time, asking for a Hundred Tonics Nourishing Soup, and it seems like I rejected him twice..." Scarlett Sparks flashed a slightly embarrassed smile and then glanced around, feeling a bit guilty as she looked at Christopher Yard and Luna Sears. Hearing this, Christopher Yard found it amusing. So Morton Goodman had already taken offense to The Serenade back then. He waved his hand dismissively, "It's alright, what's done is done. We're already at odds with each other." After understanding the situation, Luna Sears didn't continue speaking. It seemed like she had thought of something, and the anxious expression on her face disappeared, returning to calmness. After discussing with Luna Sears, they decided to go together tomorrow. Luna Sears knew that Christopher Yard had connections with some influential people, so she didn't refuse his suggestion and nodded in agreement. After Scarlett Sparks left, Christopher Yard left The Serenade and went straight to National Art Limited. He had just received a text message from Harold Myers, saying that he happened to be free today and could discuss a potential collaboration with Overmind Company. Naturally, Christopher Yard wouldn't refuse such an opportunity. After collaborating with Harold Myers, he would no longer need to ask him for help. As partners, Harold Myers would also have an obligation to protect the company's interests. "Is Shuying feeling better now?" When he arrived at the company and saw Harold Myers, Christopher Yard asked. Harold Myers's face lit up at the question and he smiled, "Since Divine Doctor Yard helped Jefferey Reed and brought Shuying back, she has been much better. She often says she misses you." Christopher Yard shook his head. The old man's words earlier were probably partly true, but the last sentence was likely made up. Chloe Stevens had such thin skin, it would be strange for her to frequently say such things to him. "Well, I'll make time to visit her. I'll bring her a gift." Christopher Yard thought about how much Harold Myers had helped him recently and decided to do something in return."That's great! Shuying will be so happy if she knows you're coming." Harold Myers was now excited, and as he spoke, his smile revealed even more wrinkles, as if he was happier than making money. After asking about Chloe Stevens' safety, Christopher Yard nodded in relief when he learned that Harold Myers had provided comprehensive protection for her. In Brandon Sandler's office, Christopher Yard handed the contract prepared by Brandon Sandler to Harold Myers. However, to Christopher Yard's astonishment, Harold Myers didn't even bother to look at it and simply signed the contract. "Are you sure you don't want to take a look? Aren't you afraid that I might harm you?" Christopher Yard said helplessly, surprised by Harold Myers' unconditional trust in him. Harold Myers shook his head. The reason he chose to trust Christopher Yard unconditionally was because of Christopher Yard's previous act of risking his life to save Chloe Stevens. Think about it, why would a man risk his life to rescue a girl if he didn't care about her deeply? Previously, Harold Myers had thought of Christopher Yard as someone capable but not trustworthy.Now, Harold Myers believed that Christopher Yard was truly trustworthy, especially since Christopher Yard needed his help. There was no need for Christopher Yard to play any tricks, as it would only lead to more harm than good. What Harold Myers saw was the person Christopher Yard truly was. Christopher Yard was momentarily stunned, and for the first time, he felt a sense of admiration for Harold Myers. He used to doubt Harold Myers' self-made success, but now he believed it. A man with such courage was rare in the whole of Madrila. "Mr. Fang, I think I've found the right person to cooperate with this time," Christopher Yard said seriously. His expression became slightly more solemn. In the business world, he knew that Harold Myers was his senior, and in that regard, he truly respected him.
