After listening to Yuhiko Ito’s insights, Charlie felt a sense of admiration for him. It became clear that Yuhiko possessed a broad perspective and had the ability to manage his own greed, avoiding being overly ambitious or aggressive. If he were part of a more ambitious and greedy n, it’s likely that things would escte quickly, with power ys on both sides.


    On one hand, they would aggressively suppress other families within the country, aiming to seize their share and be dominant. On the other hand, they would need to coborate with significant overseas families to quickly expand their profit avenues and foster rapid development.


    However, Yuhiko Ito had a keen awareness of the surrounding circumstances and the potential threats involved. The Banks Family, without a doubt, operated as a predatory entity. Such a familycks moral integrity and basic human decency, making it imperative to remain vignt when engaging with them, as they could easily turn against you.


    Aligning oneself with thepetitors of the Banks Family essentially ces you in direct opposition to them, which amplifies the risks. In light of this, it might be wiser to focus on internal growth rather than external alliances.


    Ito Emi recognized her brother’s concerns and perspective, responding earnestly: “Brother, I see your point. Emi has been too naive to grasp this level of understanding.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Yuhiko Ito gestured dismissively: “Your thoughts are perfectly reasonable. Starting a business often resembles a gamble. You can either keep betting small amounts with the hope of a spectacr future, or, after umting some resources, learn to assess the situation and make informed decisions.”


    He continued, reflecting somberly: “Had it not been for tonight, I might have shared your viewpoint. I would have seized the opportunity to make a bold move. However, after experiencing a significant setback, I came to appreciate the value of life and the essence of simply being alive. When I nearly lost Nanako, that realization hit even harder…”


    “Thus, I feel the need to adopt a more cautious approach now; stability has be my top priority.”


    Emi Ito nodded in agreement, taking her brother’s words to heart.


    At that moment, Yuhiko Ito turned his gaze toward Nanako Ito, speaking earnestly: “Nanako, now that you’ve recovered, it’s important for you to stay in Tokyo with Odosan.”


    Nanako Ito hesitated for a moment.


    She cherished her life in Kyoto and was reluctant to leave.


    However, recognizing the gravity of the current situation and that her personal preferences had to take a backseat, she quickly replied: “Alright, Odosan, I will stay with you!”


    Yuhiko Ito exined: “Keeping you in Tokyo will not only allow us to be together, but it will also give you a chance to engage with the family business and start your preparation for session.”


    Nanako Ito responded anxiously, “Odosan, Ick experience in managing a family business. Isn’t this a bit premature?”


    Yuhiko Ito nodded thoughtfully, stating: “Yes, it is slightly early, but the current circumstances are unusual. With my mobility impaired, it will be increasingly challenging for me to manage things…”


    He sighed, a hint of loneliness in his voice: “Moreover, being disabled means I’m not fit to represent the family publicly, which could damage our family’s image.”<fn0a9b> This text is hosted at f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fn0a9b>


    “Therefore, you need to prepare to step into my shoes. At the very least, you will need to present the external image of the Ito family and eventually represent us in public.”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
