HappyNovelChapter 1224 Chapter 1224: On the Klein Group's top floor, Malachi noticed Andrew glance at the time, then calmly set down his work to log into the NCI network. The network allowed those who weren't competing to watch the event as spectators. Malachi's eyes gleamed with admiration.
Their CEO must be scouting for fresh talent to recruit! What foresight! Malachi focused on the screen, eager to see which potential winner would catch his boss's eye.

"Wishing Fisher Bay and..." Everyone froze, staring in disbelief at the sudden announcement. Then, confusion set in. How had this project- once dismissed as a failure-suddenly transformed into a goldmine? Hadn't Fisher Bay been written off, with no one believing it could ever be saved? Panic spread as people scrambled to process what had just happened. Yet, none of them noticed the staggering rise in J's assets, pushing them to the top of the leaderboard.
Meanwhile, Lilian, who had been pushed down to second place, hadn't even settled into the spot before Healy surged ahead, claiming second place.
The leaderboard update was final. From top to bottom, the new ranks were: “J," "Healy," "Lilian." "Mr. Welch, look! You surpassed Lilian!" The butler, practically glowing with excitement, pointed at the screen. Healy's eyes lit up. J had done exactly what they'd promised! Without wasting a second, Healy turned to Lilian. His alliance with J, which had drained all his energy, was finally paying off. He'd won. He could finally hold his head high.
Healy smirked.

J's demand for Fisher Bay's development rights hadn't been an act to please her-J's ultimate goal had always been Fisher Bay! But she had let herself be misled. With Healy's words ringing in her ears, Lilian's fingers tightened into fists. J had outsmarted her, betrayed her, and helped Healy get ahead. This was no longer just a rivalry-it was personal. From this moment on, she wouldn't rest until she had taken down J.
The people around her, sensing the heavy tension in the air, began to edge away quietly, too afraid to make a sound.
Sphones were positioned nearby, live streaming the scene, the screens flooded with demands for Lilian to fulfill her bet. Seeing this, Lilian raised her hand in fury and smashed the laptop, clearly enraged.
"How could something as insignificant as a virtual ranking makeleave Estresa with mym entire family?'re truly naive! My family remains in Estresa because of its power. This little schwith you and J? It's not over! We'll settle it in the real world." With that, Lilian turned to leave.
"Wait! You agreed to a bet with Mr. Welch. Today, you even cto flaunt your win in front of our house, ΟΠΙ but now that you'vexost, you want to back out? Do you think the Welch family's front door is your personal stage, where you can cand go as you please?" The butler, his voice filled with indignation, blocked her path. Chapter 1224
