At this moment, the pilot of Sam’s private jet was preparing for takeoff at Aurous Airport.


    Upon receiving a call from Sam, he responded, “Young Master, I’m at the airport and ready for takeoff.”


    Sam quickly replied, “Hurry up! Tell the tower to dy the takeoff and bring the ne back to the business jet hangar. I need to get back to Eastcliff tonight.”


    Surprised, the pilot asked, “But you just arrived this morning. Didn’t you n to stay for several days? Why the sudden change?”


    Sam, feeling anxious, snapped, “That’s not your concern. Just wait for me at the hangar; I’m heading to the airport right now.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    The pilot quickly agreed, “Understood, Young Master. I’ll inform the tower to cancel the takeoff.”


    When Sam finally stepped out with a frustrated expression, Oscar, who had been waiting by the washroom door, greeted him politely, “Master Kilgore, how are you feeling?”


    “Not great!” Sam huffed. “Let your master know I’m going back to Eastcliff right now.”


    Oscar eximed in disbelief, “What? Master Kilgore, you’re leaving now? The banquet hasn’t even officially started yet!”


    “Enough with your nonsense!” Sam retorted, visibly upset. “Tell your old master that I came here today to present a valuable opportunity to the Moore family, but unfortunately, they were too arrogant to ept my goodwill!”


    With that, Sam strode past the banquet hall and exited the venue.


    Recognizing Sam’s anger, Oscar hurried back to the banquet hall to inform Lord Moore of his departure.


    Lord Moore’s expression showed a hint of regret upon hearing that Sam was leaving, but he quicklyposed himself and stated calmly, “If Master Kilgore wishes to leave, let him do so.”


    Reuben, taken aback, responded anxiously, “Grandpa, Master Kilgore came here today to discuss a potential coboration with us. How can you just let him go?”


    Lord Moore turned to Reuben and asked, “If he’s determined to leave, what’s the point of keeping him here?”


    “Oh my God…” Reuben eximed in frustration. “Grandpa, you’re usually so perceptive! Can’t you see what his real intentions are for visiting us today?”


    Jasmine interjected, shocked, “Reuben, how could you speak to Grandpa like that?”


    Having lost her parents in childhood, Jasmine viewed Lord Moore not just as her grandfather but also as a parent, making her intolerant of any disrespect towards him, especially from her cousin.


    Reuben red at Jasmine with irritation and replied regretfully, “Jasmine, don’t you see? The Kilgore family must have approached us because the Webb family is on the decline. With the top family in the South Region weakened, the Kilgore family likely wants to seize the opportunity. I believe he came to us to form a partnership. They would help us be the leading family in the South Region, and in return, we’d have a powerful ally in Eastcliff! It’s a win-win situation!”


    In truth, Lord Moore had already grasped Sam’s true intentions foring to Aurous Hill that day.


    A seasoned entrepreneur who built his empire from the ground up, he had a keen understanding of the shifting dynamics in the currentndscape, even in his old age.


    He realized that as the Webb family’s reputation and wealth continued to decline, the power dynamics among the prominent families in the South Region would inevitably change.


    The old guard would step back, making way for new leadership—a cycle that had persisted for centuries.


    However, he never imagined that the Moore family might have the chance to ascend as the new leaders among the families in the South Region.<fn0a10> Official source is FιndＮovel</fn0a10>


    While the Moore family held considerable influence in a smaller city like Aurous Hill, they remained rtively weak inparison to other families in the broader South Region.
