Anna was so scared that her face turned pale. ‘I have never seen such an unhinged person?!’

The gangster pressed the dagger against her neck as if he was preparing to end her.

The police were also frightened, and all of them pointed their guns at the gangster, “Calm down, calm down, finding a compatible wife takes time and dedication.”

The gangster yelled, “I have been taking it slowly for forty years, and you still want me to take it slowly? I don’t care, I’d rather be a dead pair with this woman today. If I can’t find a wife alive, dying with an outstanding woman will be worth my while!”

Seeing that the sharp dagger was about to pierce Anna’s heart and take her life, a chopstick swished through the air and flew towards the gangster.

With a puff, the chopsticks pierced the back of the gangster’s hand abruptly, piercing his hand.

“Clink,” The dagger fell to the ground from the hand of the gangster.

The police rushed forward and forced the gangster to the ground.

“Don’t move!”

    ‘On the other hand, Anna still looks as beautiful as ever and even has a successful career, but she is undeniably still single. I am afraid that she would not be able to marry for the rest of her life.’In this way, Fleta felt that she had a slight advantage over Anna.They were once old classmates who had not seen each other for many years. They had not expected to meet again in such a place.Although this should be a joyful occasion, there was no smile on Anna’s face. She had abhorred Fleta for being a girl who despised the poor and curried favor with the rich.Fleta walked over and gazed at Anna. Then she looked at Thomas behind Anna and broke into a snigger.“Oh, Anna, I heard from an old classmate that you were still single. It seems to be fake news. Are you bringing your boyfriend out for shopping today?”Anna and Thomas were stunned at the same time.‘This is a big misunderstanding.’Before she could open her mouth and explain, Fleta said again, “But Anna, it’s not that

    Whenever women competed with each other, it would be a terrifying sight. Do not be deceived by Anna's aloof demeanor, for she was still a woman at heart. As a woman, she was no exception to having feminine characteristics. The two women, Anna and Fleta, kept picking outfits out non-stop. Whenever one picked out a piece, the other would choose another one which was even more expensive.As they competed over the prices for a few clothes among themselves, the outfits in their hands had reached over a hundred thousand dollars a piece. Those clothes were even more expensive than diamonds.Even though Anna was rather wealthy, she should not be this reckless either.However, her haughty personality would never allow her to lose face in this situation. She stood her ground and was determined to buy the pile of clothes in her hands. Fleta refused to admit defeat either, as she grabbed an armful of clothing. Each of them was a few hundred thousand dollars apiece, the cheapest being two

    “You!!!” Anna’s fists clenched tight. Now that it has come to this, she had no choice but to leave. Just then, Thomas coughed lightly. He fished out a Prosperous Gold Card from his pocket and passed it to Anna. “Of course the man is supposed to pay for the ladies’ clothing. Anna, you can just use my card.”“You?” Anna looked at Thomas, stunned. Fleta Poplar had insisted on misunderstanding and had thought that Thomas was Anna’s boyfriend anyway. To help Anna with her predicament, Thomas did not even care to explain and continue to lead her misunderstanding on. First, Fleta was dumbstruck, then she laughed out loud. “Hey, you village farmer. Can you stop acting the hero? Is that even a bank card? That is obviously a bathhouse entrance card! It’s better if you go back to your shower, stop acting all high and mighty here. Just in case your card doesn’t go through, you would just embarrass yourself.”Thomas chuckled and placed the card in Anna’s hand. Anna had never seen a Pr

    On the way back, Anna spent the whole time drowning in the euphoria from what had just happened. When she came back down from her high, she said to Thomas, “Thank you so much for your help this time. I will repay the money I owe back to you as soon as possible.”Thomas waved his hand. “You don't need to.”“Hm? You’re being so generous?”“You are Uncle Ben’s granddaughter. Uncle Ben had poured in so much blood and sweat for Shalom Technology. Every time I wanted to pay him for it, he would not accept it. So now I’m spending money on you, treat it as repayment to Uncle Ben.”Anna was a bit taken aback. She never thought that Thomas would turn out to be such a generous person. The rest of the journey was silent. When they returned to Shalom Technology, Thomas brought her to Ben. Then he went back to his own business. “Wait.”“Is there anything else?”Anna asked. “Do you really have nothing else to say to me?”Thomas laughed. “Nope.”“Are you not going to talk to me about… es

    “Why did you suddenly...?”Anna lifted her head up high, conceited. “Don't be too happy just yet. Before I agree to help you, we need to lay down three basic rules to keep our promises and contracts straight. If you agree to my terms, then only will I stay.”“State your terms.”“First off, the reason I’m establishing this cultural entertainment industry to spread the American arts out far and wide, and also to gauge new talents so that I can spread influence in this field. I’m not here to help you defeat your rivals.”Thomas nodded, “I can accept that.”“Secondly, you may be a shareholder, but everything related to cultural arts entertainment will have to go through me first.”Thomas frowned. “How can this be?”Anna looked at Thomas. “What do you say?”Thomas nodded. “Agreed.”“Third, I need three hundred million dollars as my initial modal, and you'll need to procure two companies and establish Cultural Arts Entertainment’s own place.”For the third point, they would need at

    Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment was Thomas’s sincere remembrance towards his brother, Scott. For days on end, Thomas poured all his energy into the company. In all, he spent generously and procured two different companies, then he completed the amalgamation for them.Meanwhile, Cultural Arts Entertainment's base of operations started building up. The soonest completion date would be in a month. On Anna's side, she was working on two matters. The first was to open up distribution channels throughout Southland City so that they could prepare to launch their resources in the future; the second was to send out recruitment advertisements, to absorb gifted talents in the cultural entertainment industry. Everything was running magnificently in full swing. Although they had put a lot more modal in the early stages, all of it was worth it in Thomas's eyes. On this day, after finishing up, Thomas dragged his weary body back home. The second he stepped into the house,

    Johnson set aside his pride and begged, “Mr. Berko, please help me. I really don’t know what’s going on.”Garrick said, “How could you not know? I’ve asked about it. The Finance Department has produced proof that there were $30,000,000 in the card when it was taken out. I’ve also investigated the bank. There was no transfer record at all. That $30,000,000 is gone.”Johnson wanted to cry. Which part had gone wrong?How did he get involved in such an unfortunate event?Garrick cast a glance at Johnson and said, “Johnson, if you took the money, just take it out. Don’t try to have any bad intentions. You’re not lacking money either.”Johnson anxiously said, “Mr. Berko, what are you saying? I didn’t take the money!”“All right, you didn’t take it. Then, who took it? Johnson Hill, I’m telling you now, I can only cover for you momentarily. The company is asking us why the balance hasn’t been transferred yet. If we still don’t pay them tomorrow, our superiors will investigate.”Garrick

    The atmosphere in the house instantly froze.Emma and Felicia just frowned, as they thought that Thomas was overestimating himself and bluffing. However, Johnson responded differently.Johnson glared at Thomas angrily as he yelled, “Shut up! Don’t you think you’re more than embarrassing? It’s $30,000,000! Do you know what $30,000,000 looks like? You won’t be able to earn that amount in your lifetime!“Go back to your room now. I don’t want to see you.”Felicia immediately motioned at Thomas. “He’s angry now. You should go back to your room first.”Thomas did not say anything. His expression remained unchanged, and he walked into his bedroom indifferently.In the living room...Garrick smiled in contempt. “Johnson, I don’t want to criticize you, but what kind of son-in-law do you have? He’s so shameless, isn’t he? I actually asked your daughter to divorce him and marry my son. How great it would be if both our families become relatives. You won’t have to get angry like this too.”

With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally

    Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi

    It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible

    At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the

    Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’

    For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin

    How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the

    After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck

    “I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
