Liao Qian: "Facebook has been watching you for a long time. Your account has been receiving large sums of money. It was Allen who was under pressure and used his reputation to vouch for you. You think you are powerful and influential every day, but in reality, Allen has done a lot behind the scenes."
Upon hearing this, M collapsed to the ground, her large eyes filled with guilt. Allen closed his eyes and refused to look at her. At this moment, M was no longer the imposing and shrewd woman she was in front of everyone; all she had was a disheveled state and deep remorse.
Allen: "Anyone among you who has the ability to lead the castle, step forward, and I'm willing to give you a chance."
The people in the castle looked at each other, no one daring to step forward, until a newly arrived pastry chef suddenly stood up.

Everyone: "Understood..."
Allen nodded to W with satisfaction. W would handle the rest well: handing over the work, reporting the accounts, covering up the deficit, and sending M to prison—everything would be done in an orderly manner.
