Upon seeing Romeo and Harlow, Lachlan and Miranda were momentarily stunned. Lachlan furrowed his brows, staring coldly at the two of them. Miranda simply nodded in acknowledgement, saying "Romeo, what brings you here?"

Romeo and Harlow exchanged a glance before revealing a hint of frustration and reluctance. Then Romeo forced out a smile and said, "Miranda, we heard about your factory's completion ceremony today so we came to congratulate you!"

Harlow chimed in, "We're family after all! We can't just ignore each other forever right? We've decided to make amends with you guys. You wouldn't turn us away would you?" She even looked at Lachlan with a cautious smile.

Hearing this, Miranda looked at the father-daughter duo incredulously. Mason beside her thought he misheard something as he asked quizzically.

Lachlan gave them both an inscrutable look without speaking; he wanted to see what they were up to.

Finally Romeo sighed heavily, "We've thought it through. We know we can't beat you guys." He gestured towards Lachlan who was too powerful for them to handle.

"We're not stupid either," added Harlow pitifully while looking at him.

"So how about let bygones be bygones since I'm your uncle Romeo? Your aunt is already behind the bars. Let's not end things on bad terms."

Harlow continued pleading, "Please forgive us brother-in-law! Can't we just give up now? You have such great power and connections... we surrender." She then waved her hand signaling for their gifts which were placed among the others outside the factory gates.

"Ha ha! Just some congratulatory gifts. Please accept them," said Romeo laughing heartily.

Miranda smiled back politely saying, "Uncle Romeo, that's very kind of you."

"It's nothing really," replied Romeo still smiling warmly.

Lachlan remained silent throughout it all; he knew this wasn't over yet but didn't want any more conflict right now.

"Everyone who came today brought something, we can't show up empty-handed, right? Haha..." Romeo waved his hand and laughed.

Miranda nodded. "Then you and Harlow should go in quickly. Stay here for lunch."

Romeo and Harlow exchanged a glance and smiled. "Sure thing."

With that, the two were led inside by the designated host.

At this moment, Lachlan looked at the two with suspicion in his eyes.

"Hey bro-in-law, you're really awesome! You finally got Romeo and Harlow to submit!" Mason approached him with a thumbs-up.

Miranda's eyes wandered over to Lachlan as she gave him a faint glance.

Lachlan chuckled under his breath as he subconsciously glanced at the gifts given by Romeo and Harlow.

From start to finish, he never believed that these two would truly want to make amends. So he had been on guard against them all along.

His eyes filled with dragon energy suddenly flickered as a cold smile crossed his face. So that was how it was!

"Lachlan, what's wrong?" Miranda couldn't help but ask when she saw Lachlan's expression change.

"It's nothing." Lachlan shook his head calmly.

A moment later, after receiving today's guests, Lachlan and Miranda returned to the factory area. Because this place was too far from the city, to avoid unnecessary travel, Miranda arranged to host the guests at the company cafeteria this noon.

Of course, the meal served was not an ordinary employee's meal; instead, Miranda brought in chefs from the Golden Family Grand Hotel.

At this moment, as they walked back, Miranda expressed her doubts, "I really didn't expect Romeo and Harlow to want to reconcile. As far as I know, they recently established a company called Lowe Light Pharmaceuticals. I also received information that they have submitted four drug approvals to medical agencies, clearly the generic versions of Lowe's Scar Removal Cream and Love Light, among other medicines! The way they are going about it seems like a direct challenge to Lowe's Pharmaceutical! Their factory area has just been completed, and when I first heard this news, I almost wanted to blow up their factory buildings just to vent my frustration. But today, Romeo and Harlow actually came to congratulate me and offer gifts. I wonder what they're really up to."

Lachlan chuckled lightly, "It definitely isn't good medicine! A leopard can't change its spots; how could these two possibly have good intentions?"

Upon hearing this, Miranda responded with a questioning, "Hmm? Do you know what their purpose is?"

Lachlan grinned mysteriously at her and replied, "I won't tell you yet! Just leave it to me. I'll give you a surprise when the time comes."

Miranda glared at Lachlan and snorted irritably. "What kind of surprise could you possibly give me? Forget it!"

This jerk was still playing games with her? What kind of surprise could he possibly have for her anyway? He should explain those photos to her first before making any promises.

The employee cafeteria was filled with tables today.

Romeo and Harlow sat there, both wearing displeased expressions on their faces.

"What is this crap? They're actually entertaining guests here in the cafeteria like they don't have any class," Harlow muttered sarcastically.

"Am I supposed to eat in the cafeteria too?" she added snidely.

"Alright, we're not here to eat anyway," Romeo tried to calm his daughter down. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "We didn't slip up earlier did we?"

"I don't think so! I bet Miranda and Lachlan are feeling pretty smug right now," Harlow replied confidently.

"They probably think we bowed down to them or something. They're probably laughing behind our backs!"

Harlow shook her head disdainfully while Romeo sneered coldly. "Let them be smug all they want! They'll be crying soon enough."

At that moment, Harlow looked over at Lachlan with a sly expression on her face as she said cunningly, "Dad, honestly what worries me most is Lachlan. He is so shrewd; I'm afraid he might catch onto something."

"Just in case," she continued confidently while looking back at Romeo again. "I'll go put on an act for him myself just to make sure he doesn't suspect anything!"

"Oh really?" Romeo raised an eyebrow curiously as he asked his daughter how she planned on doing that.

"Don't worry about it Dad; leave it all up to me! I've got everything under control!" Harlow chuckled playfully while flashing him a mischievous grin.
