Chapter 210 A Different Kind of New Year 

After Sierra and the others left, Evan slowly stepped out from behind the pillar

His gaze lingered in the direction their car had disappeared, then drifted down to the groceries in his hands

With an empty expression, he turned and began walking home

Who would have thought

Evan Xander, once the pride of the Xander family, now had to save every penny just to survive

He had barely taken a few steps when a car pulled up beside him

The window rolled down, revealing Kason’s face

Evan.” 

Kason greeted him with a casual smile

Evan’s face twisted

Anger burned in his chest, but beneath it, shame festered

Xander Group’s downfall was no accident. The Richardson family had been one of the first to sink their teeth in

As soon as his family was in trouble, the Richardsons had pounced, crushing Xander Group’s stock value and buying up shares at rockbottom prices

Kason was one of the people responsible for destroying his family 

And now, he was here

No doubt to rub salt in the wound

Evan refused to entertain him

He kept his head downland continued walking, refusing to give Kason the satisfaction of a reaction

But then- 

“I heard you’re looking for a job?” 

Evan’s jaw clenched

He didn’t believe for a second that Kason would actually help him

It was just another way to humiliate him

e was sure of it

He 

Until Kason said- 

My lab needs people. Want to join?” 

Evan stopped in his tracks

He told himself Kason was toying with him

But his feet wouldn’t move forward

His reputation was ruined

No one in the field would touch him

Chapter 210 A Different Kind of New Year 

Finished 

Not because of the lab incident 

His mentor knew that mess had been mostly Yaron’s doing. Evan’s mistake was trusting the wrong person 

But turning on his own sister

That was something else entirely

It wasn’t about science

It was about character

His mentor had made it clearEvan was no longer welcome

And with that, his last bridge was burned

He had already accepted that his future in the industry was over

He was even prepared to take a lowlevel job just to survive

But now Kason was offering him a place in a lab

How could he not waver

But he wasn’t stupid

What’s the catch?he asked cautiously

Early on New Year’s Eve, Sierra’s phone rang

Johnathan

You’re up early.” 

She glanced at the clock. It was barely past seven

I have to head to the family estate soon. Won’t have time to call you later, so I figured I’d do it now. Did you get everything for the celebration?” 

As he spoke, he got into the car

The main house was in the mountains 

Personal vehicles weren’t allowed inside

Everyone had to transfer to estateapproved transportation at the base

Once inside, every move he made would be scrutinized

Just thinking about it was exhausting

Sierra had no idea what he was dealing with

She casually told him about their plansgrocery shopping, decorating, cooking

And yes, as he listened, Johnathan felt his tension ease

For a while, they talked as if it were just another day

But soon, his car slowed to a stop

I’m here,he said. I’ll call you tonight if I can. Tell your grandmother I said hello.” 

Alright 

Chapter 210 A Different Kind of New Year 

Johnathan had only ever mentioned his mother

Never 

anyone else

She had no idea what his family was like

After hanging up, Johnathan adjusted his clothes and put on his glasses

In an instant, he transformed

Gone was the casual ease from their call

Now, he exuded polished refinement

As he made his way toward the estate, the greetings began

Mr. Bradley, good morning!” 

Morning, Mr. Bradley!” 

This was a place where tradition reigned

Hierarchy was everything

Johnathan acknowledged them all with a polite nod

Respectful, yet distant

Bradley’s back?” 

More voices called our 

He responded with a flawless smile

Back home, Sierra and Dickson had been busy decorating

They put up paper cuttings, couplets, and hung decorations

The atmosphere was festive, warm.. 

Sierra’s grandmother watched, nodding in approval

Even with just the three of them, it felt like a real celebration

At noon, Sierra and Dickson cooked eight dishes together

She poured a small glass of wine for each of them

Let’s have a drink Pasta for dinner later 

Dickson’s eyes reddened slightly

Since his sister went to prison, he hadn’t celebrated New Year’s 

For years, New Year’s Eve had been just him and his mother, sitting in silence

He never expected to have his family around this year

The siblings chatted as they ate, making sure Sierra’s grandmother was entertained

She smiled so much her cheeks hurt

Before they knew it, night had fallen

Sierra and Dickson were preparing pasta when her grandmother suddenly spoke.
