\u201cYou!\u201d Natasha raised a hand to slap Adriana, but Curtis stood up with a chilling presence, so she held back. \u201cAdriana, just you wait.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Jones, the Joneses are practically bankrupt, yet you\u2019re here threatening me? Maybe you should spend more time figuring out which married man to cozy up to next. Let\u2019s be real, you\u2019ve never had any morals.\u201d Adriana shot her a sarcastic look.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natasha shook with rage. She\u2019d never imagined Adriana could still be so cocky at this point.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana, I hope you die a horrible death!\u201d Natasha shouted and stormed off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe looks like a total clown,\u201d Adriana muttered under her breath.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis gave a slight nod.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThese people aren\u2019t bad,\u201d Adriana said, glancing at the business cards in Curtis\u2019s hand. \u201cThey genuinely want to work with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis nodded again. \u201cSometimes you have to hit rock bottom to see who\u2019s truly there for you \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
The ones willing to help him now were the ones worth trusting in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sure, business is all about profit, but if someone can keep a shred of decency in the middle of it all, that\u2019s rare.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou sure you want to keep going?\u201d Ronan asked quietly once everyone else was gone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis handed him the cards. \u201cAinsworth Group is at a turning point. Picking the right partners matters more than ever. The wrong person could ruin everything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ronan smirked. That\u2019s Mr. Lincoln for you. He never takes risks he can\u2019t handle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They\u2019d both been humiliated all day, but at least they could spot the worthwhile partners in the crowd. \u201cMr. Lincoln, just keep up the struggling\u2013underdog act. It works for you.\u201d Ronan grinned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis\u2019s startup was catching everyone\u2019s attention, which made it easier for Ainsworth Group to rise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ronan couldn\u2019t help but think Curtis was a genius.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He played his role perfectly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy wife\u2019s acting isn\u2019t great, though. I\u2019ll have to coach her.\u201d Curtis pulled Adriana close. \u201cThat\u2019s it for tonight, Mr. Fowler. We\u2019re heading out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana followed Curtis out and whispered, \u201cSorry, they were too much\u2013putting you down while worshiping the Ainsworth Group\u2019s CEO. I just couldn\u2019t take it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curtis just smiled. \u201cWhat\u2019s funnier\u2013hearing them insult me or praise me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana tried not to laugh. \u201cBoth \u2026 \u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now she wondered what Danielle\u2019s and Nicole\u2019s faces would look like if they found out who Curtis really\u00a0<\/p>\n
was.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Curtis!\u201d As soon as they left the ballroom, Curtis\u2019s assistant hurried over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Curtis, Mr. Harold collapsed and was taken to the hospital. Michael was the only one with him when it happened, but no one knows what they said. Whatever it was, it triggered Mr. Harold\u2026\u2018\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis\u2019s expression darkened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u0f0b\u0f0b\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShould I book tickets to Harborton?\u201d the assistant asked quietly. \u201cThe whole family is waiting outside the hospital\u2019s emergency room for the will.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harold had already added Denton to the Lincolns\u2018 family records and officially named him the future heir of the Lincoln Group, but the family\u2019s assets and everything else still hadn\u2019t been divided up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now that Harold\u2019s life was hanging by a thread, everyone in the Lincoln Family was getting restless. They all wanted a piece of the pie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis was silent for a while, then nodded. \u201cYou booked the flights already?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The assistant nodded. \u201cEverything\u2019s set.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis turned to Adriana. \u201cCome back to Harborton with me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Whatever happened, Harold was still his grandfather\u2014the man who raised him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She also understood why Curtis always went easy on Denton, He remembered everything Harold had done for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis had grown up in a broken home, with a cold mother and a terrible father. Without his grandfather, he wouldn\u2019t have survived.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harborton.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Curtis and Adriana arrived at the hospital, the Lincoln family\u2019s relatives were already arguing\u00a0<\/p>\n
outside the ICU.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone claimed to have contributed the\u00a0<\/p>\n
most to the Lincoln Group and family.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had no respect for Denton, who was now named as the official heir. As a student himself, Denton had no way to hold them back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHarold collapsed before he could write a will. That means Michael\u2019s in charge now, so you better be fair about it, Michael.\u201d Since Curtis was no longer running the Lincoln Group, everyone treated him like he\u2019d already been expelled from the family.\u00a0<\/p>\n
All this time, everyone had been sucking up to Michael and his wife Juliet, and it\u2019d gone to their heads.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton stood on the sidelines, furious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
While Harold fought for his life in the ICU, everyone else was already scheming for their share.\u00a0<\/p>\n
