Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2197

Green was a former antique dealer, Eli used to work at Wemperson Financial, and Aite was the deputy manager at Wemperson Financial.

Interestingly, among these eight people, Eli and Aite were twins, with Eli being the older brother and Aite the younger brother.

According to their accounts, they all had enviable jobs before. Although Eli got his job at Wemperson Financial through his brother Aite, his salary was above average for his position and twice that of ordinary employees.

These eight people originally had good lives. However, after a financial crisis eight years ago, their lives changed drastically. All eight of them left their jobs, and through various circumstances, met and formed Mitch's exploration team.

A financial crisis causing eight people from different industries and social standings to simultaneously lose their jobs seemed almost impossible to Wilbur, so he did not fully believe their story. He suspected it was a fabricated lie, indicating they still had some reservations about him.

However, this did not bother Wilbur too much, as he had already identified a common thread from their stories.

Despite their different industries, all eight had jobs that allowed them to interact with upper-class society to some extent. Wilbur deduced that the information about the treasure hidden in Vicente Primeval Forest was likely overheard from these high-society interactions.

If it were just general knowledge about the treasure, it would not be worth seriously searching for the treasure, as many would know about it. The only plausible scenario was that they had obtained only a part of the information, and after further research, had pinpointed the location to Vicente Primeval Forest.

Members of Mitch’s exploration team exemplified this. They were unwilling to lead lives dominated by upper-class individuals while working hard for meager returns. No one wanted to accept that a single meal for someone else could equate to their entire year’s salary, especially an educated person.

Thus, they chose to leave their original jobs, form an exploration team, and venture into Vicente Primeval Forest to seek the legendary treasure. This quest for gold also served as a means to achieve a sense of inner pride and recognition.

Many people dream of striking it rich, but few achieve it. Some even neglect their basic living needs in pursuit of this dream.

The eight members of Mitch’s exploration team were such people. They once had excellent jobs but found themselves in their current state. Rather than being forced into desperation, they brought it upon themselves by not understanding the true meaning of life. Money did not represent all that was valuable in the world.
