As soon as these words were spoken, Matthew’s face immediately darkened, and his beard visibly
twitched.
Before he had a chance to speak, Darren, standing behind him, stepped forward. With furrowed brows
and a stern face, he indignantly began to chastise Neera.
“How audacious! Mr. Lozano has promised the Gordon family so many benefits, even allowing an
exceptional promotion for you to the second elder seat. This is an extraordinary favor toward the
Gordon family. Yet, you are so ungrateful and dare to refuse Mr. Lozano. Do you not know what’s best
for you?”
Matthew remained silent with a stern face.
Upon hearing these words, Neera suddenly burst into laughter.
Her beautiful eyes lifted as she shifted her gaze from Matthew to Darren.
“What’s best for me? Mr. Torres, aren’t your words a bit too harsh? Mr. Lozano merely extended an
invitation to the Gordon family. As far as I know, it’s not a strict rule that I accept it, right? So according
to your logic, this is not an invitation, but a mandatory request that the Gordon family must agree to, is
that correct?”
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Matthew, a decent smile still hanging on her lips. She
asked him, “Don’t you agree, Mr. Lozano?”
Matthew’s mouth twitched slightly. There was a hint of annoyance in his dark eyes, but he had no
choice but to correct himself. “Indeed, it is an invitation. The Bartitsu Guild has no intention of forcing
the Gordon family to accept, nor do they have the right to do so.”
“Exactly. That’s more like it.” Neera nodded. “I knew it. How could the Bartitsu Guild be so
unreasonable, resorting to such forceful tactics? As expected, you truly understands the greater good,
Mr. Lozano.”
Then, with a swift change of topic, she steered the conversation back to Darren.
“However, what surprised me was you, Mr. Torres. Previously, you seemed refined and courteous,
giving the impression of a reasonable person. But why did you change so drastically just now,
becoming so brash and unreasonable? Is it because Mr. Lozano is here, so you’re acting arrogantly
with the support of a powerful man like him?”
Darren’s face turned beet red in an instant, the blush spreading all the way down to his neck. He was
overwhelmed with embarrassment and indignation.
“Ms. Garcia, you… you need to be careful with your words and actions,” he said through gritted teeth,
struggling to squeeze out these words after a long silence.
Neera chuckled lightly, looking at him with great interest.
“Be careful with my words and actions? Mr. Torres, I didn’t expect you to turn into a great educator. I
am quite curious, though. Among all of us here, who should really be careful with their words and
actions? Wasn’t it you who misspoke just now? Mr. Torres, I think it would be best if you don’t forget
your place. You’re just an assistant to the vice president, so why are you acting more important than,
the vice president himself? Even Mr. Lozano hasn’t said anything yet, so why are you in such a hurry to
speak up? Could it be that you think you can speak for Mr. Lozano?”

the vice president himselt? Even Mr. Lozano hasn’t said anything yet, so why are you in such a hurry to
speak up? Could it be that you think you can speak for Mr. Lozano?”
“I” Darren’s neck stiffened. He glanced at Matthew, ultimately failing to utter a complete sentence.
Neera continued to tease him calmly, “Since you can’t, then it’s best you just stand quietly behind Mr.
Lozano. Do what he asks of you only after you receive the order. Otherwise, if you overdo it, we might
start thinking that you’re the vice president of the Bartitsu Guild.”
Darren’s face was flushed with a mix of red and blue. He gritted his teeth and defended himself, “I’m
just standing up for Mr. Lozano. He was kind to the Gordon family, but you guys just don’t appreciate
it!'”
Neera’s attractive lips curled upward, her smile carrying a hint of indifference. Her voice, too, was
tinged with a touch of coldness.
“Who says that the Gordon family must be grateful for others’ kindness? What, is it implied that the
Gordon family relies on the charity of others?”
“You-”
“Also, Mr. Torres, even though you are favored by Mr. Lozano, I am still the ninth elder of the Bartitsu
Guild. No matter how you look at it, my position is above yours. I am polite to you on a daily basis
because I respect Mr. Lozano and you as well. However, this does not mean you can disrespect me or
criticize me. What, do you think the Gordon family is a force under the Bartitsu Guild, and thus became
your subordinates? Or your servants? Who gave you such audacity? Even the vice president treats me
with utmost respect. Are you implying that your status is higher than Mr. Lozano’s? You dare to show
off and act aggressively in front of Mr. Lozano. Do you disregard everyone in the Bartitsu Guild?”
After she finished speaking, her gaze became sharp as she stared directly at Matthew.
She didn’t speak to him but just looked at him, her gaze cold and indifferent.
Darren was so taken aback that he couldn’t utter a word. He became somewhat anxious and quickly
tried to explain himself to Matthew.
“Mr. Lozano, please don’t listen to her nonsense. I don’t mean that. I really am doing this for you…”
The corner of Matthew’s mouth twitched slightly. His face was stern, and his eyes were dark. There
was no telling what he was thinking.
After a few seconds, he suddenly barked, “How dare you! Apologize to Ms. Garcia right now! Who gave
you the right to speak!”
Darren was stunned, his face changing colors several times. He found himself at a loss for a good
while.
He didn’t want to apologize, of course. But when the vice president had spoken in such a manner, had
no choice but to swallow his pride.
