Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1043

Don't even try to doubt the 'bespoke' claim here. Let me educate you on this man's god-tier fashion taste.

Picture 1: A custom handmade suit from a luxury brand exclusively tailored for European royalty. The price tag is astronomical. It screams quiet luxury. In a word: Expensive!

Picture 2: A top-tier luxury label, the absolute favorite of old-money billionaires. A bespoke suit from them takes six months to craft by hand. Guess the price? You can't, because mere mortals like us don't even qualify to ask.

Anyway, back to the main point. Let's keep analyzing.

Point 3: I am declaring right now that this man is the elusive partner of our beloved hacker god, Li.

Fight me if you want, but bring facts.

Here's my reasoning. I've already ruled out his identity at the launch event—he wasn't Lillionix staff, and he wasn't media.

Security at the Lillionix Grand Launch was airtight.

No one walked in without a thorough background check.

So, who is this VIP who doesn't belong to either camp?

How did he get a front-row seat if he wasn't media or staff?

Pay attention, because I'm not just making wild guesses.

I ran the plates on the car he arrived in today. It's registered under the exact same name as the Rolls-Royce that Li has been spotted in multiple times.

The registered owner isn't a total ghost—it's Ethan Hayes, a VP at Lillionix.

A quick deep dive into Ethan shows he's a heavyweight who has managed massive corporate acquisitions. He's a shark.

But I digress. Let's sideline Mr. Hayes for a second.

The connection is obvious: The mystery man in these photos is directly linked to Li.

Meanwhile, Lillian was the undeniable star of the day. With her true identity revealed, everyone wanted to be in her orbit.

Her status, combined with her stunning looks, made her an absolute magnet.

Entrepreneurs who usually couldn't get past her receptionist were practically tripping over themselves to network with her, seeing this as their golden ticket.

Vice Chancellor Rhodes tried to lead Sebastian over to her, but the crowd was a solid wall of bodies. It was too embarrassing to push through.

"Mr. Blake, look at Ms. Mercer's popularity. It's off the charts.

How about this? I'll arrange for the two of you to be seated together at the VIP luncheon. That way, you'll have plenty of time to talk. Sound good?"

Sebastian's eyes immediately lit up.

It was exactly the kind of opportunity he had been desperate for!
