Do any of you know the owner of Mamy's? " Cyril had gathered a group of friends at the teahouse. Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, he asked with a serious expression.
"The owner of Mamy's? That guy who ruined your plans time and time again? Why, are you finally going to teach him a lesson? "A young man in a golden robe laughed.
"I heard that the owner of this restaurant earns a lot. His dishes are sold at sky-high prices, and the customers line up every day. He earns hundreds of thousands a day." Another person echoed with a hint of envy.
"Isn't it just a small restaurant? How dare he provoke our Young Master Cyril. Why don't we go to the restaurant and have a chat? We're not good at anything, but we're good at finding trouble. No matter how good the business is, we can still ruin it." A man with a bit of a ruffian smiled and looked at Cyril with a fawning look.
Everyone knew about the conflict between Cyril and Gloria, and the owner of Mamy's seemed to be on Gloria's side. Cyril had mentioned his name a few times.
Today, Cyril called everyone over and asked about the owner of Mamy's. Could it be that he was planning to make a move on him?
"I'm not looking for trouble with him today. I have something I need his help with." Cyril frowned.
"Ask him for help?" Everyone was a little surprised. Cyril actually wanted to ask the owner of a restaurant for help. Moreover, it was a guy who had always been on the opposite side of him?
"I have something I need his help with. Are any of you familiar with him?" Cyril nodded.
"Ever since I heard that you didn't get along with him, I haven't been to his restaurant. I don't even know what the owner looks like."
"I haven't been there either."
Everyone shook their heads.
"None of you know him?" Cyril frowned. It seemed that he couldn't rely on this group of fair-weather friends.
"Isn't your niece on good terms with him?" Someone reminded him.
Everyone glared at him. This guy really touched the pot that didn't boil. Cyril had been upset because of Gloria recently, and this guy actually wanted him to look for her.
Cyril fell into deep thought. Although it was embarrassing to ask Gloria for help, and he might not be able to get her help, she was the only person he could find at the moment. With his life at stake, dignity wasn't worth mentioning...
"Go ahead and enjoy your drinks. I have something to attend to, so I'll be taking my leave now." Cyril quickly strode toward the door, leaving everyone staring at one another in bewilderment.
"Cyril isn't really going to ask Gloria for help, is he?" someone whispered.

. "" I met an acquaintance on my way back, and he saw it with his own eyes. I'm afraid Cyril has gotten himself into a lot of trouble this time. " Mars nodded. He looked at Gloria, and said, "But this is actually a good thing for you, Young Mistress. Even if the matter is settled, Master's side should be more on your side."
Gloria shook her head with a worried expression, and said, "We're in big trouble, and we shouldn't be so calculative about personal gains and losses. If what you said is true, and Master Rom's followers might vent their anger on the Moreton Family because of Cyril, then this isn't just Cyril's problem alone. It concerns the safety of hundreds of people in the Moreton Family."
"I'm ashamed that Young Mistress can still think about the family at this time." Mars looked at Gloria with admiration, and then smilingly said, "However, Family Moreton has been in Chaos City for decades. They're not the four major families for nothing. The city lord's castle and the Gray Temple won't sit back and watch them do anything to Family Moreton. You don't have to worry too much."
Gloria nodded thoughtfully. Her influence on Family Moreton was not comprehensive enough. She said, "But the Marquis Family …"
"That's Bowen and his son's doing. They got into trouble with the city lord's castle and the Gray Temple. Bennett's matter is enough to make the Marquis Family suffer." Mars shook his head. "However, the father and son don't deserve to die. They will be released sooner or later. It's just that the Marquis Family won't be able to return to their former glory."
"We have to abide by the rules in Chaos City." Gloria nodded.
"Boss, there's someone outside who claims to be your uncle," the guard said to Gloria respectfully as he strode over.
"Uncle?" Gloria frowned, and doubtfully asked, "Could it be Cyril?"
Gloria pondered for a while, and said to the guard, "Bring him to the guest hall."
"Yes." The guard acknowledged and left.
"Could it be because of Master Rôme's matter? But I don't know that master, "Gloria said doubtfully after the guard left.
"He's most likely here to ask you for a favor. Listen to what he has to say. No matter what he says, don't agree to it in person." Mars was also a little surprised by Cyril's arrival.
"Alright." Gloria nodded. She really couldn't guess Cyril's motive for looking for her at this time.
…
Cyril followed the guard into the factory. He looked at the row upon row of factories, and felt a little uncomfortable.
He had just gone to the factory before Suede, and more than half of the workers there had moved to the new factory. Gloria was also at the new factory, so he came here again.
In just a few short months, Gloria had already upgraded to a second factory. She had spent money to buy a large piece of land in the northern part of the city. The factory was quite large, and it was more than 10 times larger than his blacksmith shop.
He wasn't sure about the current turnover of Suede, but from the feedback from his subordinates, Suede had already made a name for itself in Chaos City. The high prices didn't stop the women's enthusiasm at all, and they were often out of stock. They were known as the Mamy's of the clothing industry.
Many of the high-end custom-made orders that originally belonged to famous tailors had now been transferred to Suede. The factory was working day and night, but still couldn't meet the demand.
However, Gloria was now taking over the entire textile industry of Family Moreton, from the cotton farm to the fabric sales channels all over the Norland Continent. Years of accumulated problems, lengthy sales chains, and products that were gradually losing competitiveness had turned this industry, which used to be the backbone of Family Moreton, into a leech that clung to the entire family.
Geoffrey had tried to change this industry, but it ended in failure. There were too many people from Family Moreton in this industry, and the old people who had followed him in his business. The problem was very complicated, and there was almost no way to solve it.
Gloria was just a little girl who had just turned 18. What ability did she have to revive this industry that Geoffrey was about to abolish?
It's impossible. It doesn't exist. Cyril thought to himself. He tried to calm himself down, and took a deep breath to calm down. He began to think about how to ask for Gloria's help when he met her later.
