Bai Xiaosheng and his companions meet with representatives from the Maiyous Family, Levante and Jim, to discuss Lorna's potential familial ties. Lorna is anxious but hopeful, while the Maiyous representatives seem to mistake Bai Xiaosheng for a trusted envoy of Mr. Anlos, discussing the matter as a significant family opportunity.

"Our Maiyous Family’s expedition to East Africa coincidentally missed some opportunities. This time, we want to seize this chance to advance hand in hand with the Anlos Family."

Jim, smiling from the side, interrupted, "With our two great families joining forces, I believe we will capture a larger market and reduce our common competitors."

Levante’s eyes shifted as he glanced at Jim, seemingly thinking that those words were somewhat premature, but he didn’t say much more, nor did he criticize Jim for interrupting.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at the two of them meaningfully.

Levante was relatively reserved, but Jim’s words were straightforward, showcasing the dominance of the Maiyous Family.

Reduce competitors?

Are they thinking of banding together with the Anlos Family to push Brady and Hogson out?

This ambition and appetite are indeed astounding.

But with the two strongest families in West Africa joining forces, they could really achieve that!

Maiyous defeated the strongest family in East Africa in business, and now wants to return here to consolidate their position. Are they really thinking of dominating the business world across the entire continent?

Surely not a regular family!

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying also understood the implications behind those words, and could not help but be amazed.

However, they were also thinking of another issue—

With just a few words at the beginning, without confirming Bai Xiaosheng’s identity and status, is it really appropriate to say this?

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s meaningful expression, Levante smiled and said, "Mr. Jim’s words were somewhat... overly straightforward, but they indeed represent our sentiments on this trip."

"Although I am merely a subordinate, within the Maiyous Family, I count as someone who can be recognized. Mr. Anlos knows of my arrival, so he must have sent someone of equal standing. In other words, treating Mr. Bai as a trusted confidant, relying heavily on him, speaking directly is not a big deal."

Levante spoke with a certain level of self-confidence.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng felt a stir and Red Lotus quickly researched Levante’s identity in his mind.

Indeed, a mere steward doesn’t rank on the list of notable figures within the Maiyous Family, but as long as there is any trace online, Red Lotus can find it and instantly eliminate irrelevant information.

In a moment, Bai Xiaosheng learned about Levante’s background.

This Levante is actually one of Maiyous’s personal stewards!

And then this Jim...

Bai Xiaosheng also checked him out.

The results of the search made Bai Xiaosheng raise his eyebrows slightly.

Jim is exactly one of Maiyous’s sons.

This is interesting, Maiyous sends his personal steward and son to acknowledge relatives?

Then Lorna’s identity is almost obvious!

This outcome corroborates what Levante said.

Anlos, knowing this steward personally came, certainly guessed everything, even predicted seven, eight tenths of a possible cooperative opportunity.

He surely sent trusted confidants to connect, fully authorized.

From this perspective, Levante’s thinking wasn’t wrong—delving directly into confidential matters would be no issue at all.

"Mr. Maiyous is currently well-known in East Africa, having just succeeded, yet not forgetting West African development, truly diligent and admirable," Bai Xiaosheng commented first.

Simultaneously, Bai Xiaosheng’s thoughts were turning.

Anlos had long known these, sending me to take over clearly to show he wasn’t holding back any secrets and placed all decision-making power in my hands.

Yet, couldn’t you have informed me of these beforehand? Bai Xiaosheng genuinely wanted to complain.

Levante was slightly surprised by Bai Xiaosheng’s random, superficial "compliment."

It sounded somewhat mocking, but could a servant dare to be so bold?

"So, what does the Anlos Family mean?" Jim on the side couldn’t help but ask.

Levante also looked at Bai Xiaosheng, waiting for an answer.

Watching these lively discussions, Lorna sat there somewhat dazed. No one had mentioned her from start to finish, as if she were an outsider.

Nevertheless, out of politeness, Lorna continued to maintain restraint.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Lorna, then turned to Levante and Jim, saying, "Before discussing those matters, we want to first understand Miss Lorna’s lineage."

Upon hearing this, Levante and Jim’s gaze turned meaningful.

In their perspective, the Anlos Family’s representative very likely wanted to first assess Miss Lorna’s value, perhaps to haggle when negotiating cooperation.

Levante smiled faintly, "I’m here personally, so Mr. Anlos must have a judgment. Yes, Miss Lorna is Mr. Maiyous’s flesh and blood!"

This sentence made Lorna tremble, meaning her biological father is still alive!

Levante continued, "Back then, her mother was Mr. Maiyous’s secretary. However, due to a... mistake that should not have existed, she became pregnant."

"Upon learning of Miss Lorna, Mr. Maiyous once arranged a handsome compensation for her mother, urging her to terminate the pregnancy."

"However, Miss Lorna’s mother was remarkable, managing to disappear beyond the Maiyous Family’s surveillance."

"Having been missing for so many years, Mr. Maiyous presumed she was gone. Until seeing news of Miss Lorna’s striking resemblance to her mother, even her small gestures the same. Mr. Maiyous realized Miss Lorna was alive!"

"Therefore, we’re here to bring Miss Lorna back, and grateful to the Anlos Family for your protective care."

"Mr. Maiyous also believes this represents a rare affinity and opportunity between the two great families. The Maiyous Family returning to West Africa requires strong support to eliminate others."
