"Sooner or later, I will find the evidence I need," Lily said, moving closer to her. "In the following month, don't let me catch you making any mistakes."

Josie was feeling down. She had long lost interest in wasting time with such people. Unfortunately, competitive individuals like them could be found everywhere in the world.

Meanwhile, Lachlan had already entered the hotel where the event was being held. The staff explained, "Mr. Peeple is indeed here, but he has made it clear in advance that his visit to Sumanthova is a private one, and he will not be seeing any guests."

Lachlan furrowed his brow. "Stardust just won the championship, generating a huge return for his company. Why wouldn't he want to meet me?"

The staff member was very patient. "It's a private trip. Perhaps a meeting will be arranged to discuss cooperation for the next quarter after he returns to the country."

Lachlan was still rather upset. He had great confidence in his own businesses and carried a certain degree of pride. He found it hard to accept that he had been turned away by the other party.

However, his journey to success required patience. He nodded, handing over an invitation letter. "Please pass this on to Mr. Peeple. Stardust's home team arena has been established in Wavery. If he has the time, he is welcome to attend the games at any time."

The staff complied.

Meanwhile, Grape was brought into the back garden of the venue. The place was indeed vast, with picturesque scenery, attracting many of the competitors who had come to participate.

"Michael, you seem distracted. Is there something important on your mind?" a team member asked with concern.

Lachlan's words lingered in Michael's mind, but he had no authority to interfere with the team's personnel changes. Michael was somewhat worried, shaking his head.

At that moment, Grape was stepping on the lawn with her little legs, walking unsteadily. "Mikey, I have some candy for you. My mommy says that eating candy makes you feel better." As she spoke, she slipped a grape-flavored candy into his hand.

Finally, Michael smiled, gently pinching Grape's face. "You're such a good girl. Thank you, Grape."

Those boys were still teenagers themselves, inexperienced in handling children. Fortunately, Grape was well-behaved. She sat quietly in her seat for over an hour without complaining of boredom. But it seemed she couldn't hold it in any longer. She tugged at Michael's finger and said, "Mikey, I need to use the restroom."

Michael paused for a moment, then looked towards the women's restroom, exchanging a glance with his teammates. "Should the child go to the ladies' room? We're all guys here... What should we do?" Grape furrowed her tiny eyebrows tightly. "I really need to go."

"Damn!" A teammate quickly picked her up as a group of people rushed towards the ladies' restroom. "Hold on, Grape."

Following closely behind, Michael suggested, "Why don't we find a lady to accompany her? A waitress? A staff member?"

Grape cried out, "I can't hold it any longer!"

Several people had already arrived at the entrance of the women's restroom, yet not a single one dared to enter, exchanging uneasy glances.

For the past couple of days, Helena had been staying in the hotel. Overwhelmed by boredom, she had heard about an event taking place and decided to check it out. Unexpectedly, as she turned a corner, she stumbled upon such a ridiculous scene.

"You all..." Helena stepped forward, thinking she must be mistaken. "Are you members of Stardust?"

It was quite peculiar to see a few young boys carrying a little girl.

Nobody in the crowd actually knew her, but seeing her recognize them, they quickly nodded. "You're a fan, aren't you?"

Eager for an answer, Helena pursed her lips. "I guess so."

"Great!" They quickly handed Grape to Helena. "Please, could you take her to the restroom?"

Helena lowered her gaze to meet the child's eyes, and a spark ignited in both of their eyes.

"Grape?"

"Ms. Swear Words!"
