Twenty minutes later, he parked the car near the main company.

Thomas walked to the company’s building, and from far away, he saw Emma standing at the entrance while waiting. At the same time, a man was standing beside her, and he would lean close to Emma at times.

Emma clearly had a scornful expression, and she moved to the side.

Yet, the man would shamelessly take one step forward. He continuously kept a very close distance with Emma, while his eyes eagerly stuck to her.

Thomas frowned, and a glint of anger flashed across his eyes.

“Thomas, you’re here!” Seeing that Thomas was there, Emma seemed to have found her savior. She immediately ran over and held Thomas’ arm.

The man cast a glance at Thomas and sneered as if he looked down on Thomas.

“Is this your husband who relies on you, Thomas Mayo?” the man asked.

Emma looked unhappy and coldly answered, “This is my husband, Thomas. He purposely came to pick me up. Mr. Chapman, you can leave now.”

“Who is he?” Thomas asked in a

    Neil stared at Thomas and said, “Oh, I got it. You’re going to take the subway with Ms. Hill, aren’t you? That’s right. A subway costs billions of dollars, and it’s seriously more expensive than my BMW X6. Haha!“But… this is peak off-office hour. Thomas, you’re asking your gorgeous wife to take the congested subway with those men. Don’t you feel sorry for her?“You’re a man. Can’t you have dignity as a man?”Thomas’ expression did not change. He did not look at Neil at all as he silently took out his car key.“Emma, let’s go.”“Okay!”Thomas held Emma’s hand and left.Neil spat at the back. “Loser, how dare you pretend in front of me? Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror and see what the heck you are?”He took out his BMW key. When he walked over and opened his car door, he heard some screams from the back.“Hmm?”Neil turned back to take a look. He realized that a group of women had suddenly gathered at the roadside. They were staring at a car like fangirls.“Is th

    He had even sarcastically said that Thomas was a poor guy earlier, but he was the embarrassed one now.That aside, he still did not understand how a man who relied on his wife could drive such a good car?Was it a rental car?It was impossible.Where could you rent a limited-edition Rolls Royce?Did Emma buy this car?That was even more impossible. How could Emma be so capable? Even Richard could not afford it.Besides, even if you had the money, you might not be able to buy such a car. Without a particular status, the manufacturer would not sell the car to you.Thomas reached out to take Neil’s name card. Then he smiled and said, “Mr. Chapman, this is so flattering. You even purposely ran over and gave me a name card. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it.”Neil wanted to hide under the ground.He initially wanted to flatter a big shot, send a name card, and give him a good impression. Maybe they would have a chance for future collaboration.Who would have thought that Thomas would be

    When they got back home, Emma’s heart nearly pounded out of her chest. As soon as the car stopped, she pushed open the door and ran out.Thomas smirked while he walked behind her.The two of them walked into the house successively.When Felicia saw Emma look like a mess, she asked, “Emma, what’s wrong with you?”Emma pouted. “Thomas bullied me!”“Huh? Why did he bully you?”“He just bullied me. He drove the car so fast. I was extremely scared.”Felicia rolled her eyes at Thomas. “You… Why did you drive so fast? What if an accident happened?”Johnson walked out of the house. “You’re a woman. Why are you saying such a bad thing? Why would they get into an accident? The kids are just having fun to strengthen their bond. Do you understand that?”Emma was quite speechless as she glanced at Johnson.Johnson had been very obedient to Thomas recently. He would agree with whatever Thomas said, so Emma was helpless.Just as the family planned to get ready and have dinner, they heard a

    “I still want to scold him even if God gets mad!” Johnson angrily said, “He doesn’t treat me like his son, and he has also set my daughter up. He even insulted Thomas previously. Why should I still acknowledge him as my father? If I didn’t care about Emma’s status as the person-in-charge of the project, I would’ve broken my relationship with that senile old man.”The more Johnson spoke, the angrier he got, so he kept using vulgar words.Felicia helplessly shook her head while she sighed at the side.At that moment, Thomas smiled as he walked over and said, “It’s all right, just go. Isn’t it okay if I go with Emma?”The three of them looked at Thomas at the same time.“Really?” Emma asked.“Of course. I can just apply for a two-day leave, right? How can I be at ease when my beautiful wife goes out alone with another man?”Emma showed a smile on her face right then.She pouted and said, “That’s not a bad idea.”Johnson said, “Yes, this is the solution. Let Tom and Emma go togeth

    Neil brought Thomas and Emma to a black sedan.“Everyone, it’s still very early now. Let me bring you to lunch. We’ll rest for a while, then go for a discussion with the other party in the afternoon.”“Okay.”Emma was really hungry, so she did not reject it.The three of them arrived at the entrance of the biggest hotel in the Rock District, the I-Heart Hotel.They entered the hotel one after another and sat in the seats that had been booked in advance.Neil took the menu and let Emma order whatever she wanted. It was his treat.He looked like a “gentleman” all the way and did not show any intention to overstep his boundary. That made Emma feel like she did not know him well.‘Perhaps because Thomas taught him a lesson yesterday, he’s behaving himself now?’ Emma wondered without speaking.After they ordered a table of dishes, they started eating.While they ate, they saw a host in a professional suit and tie who walked onto the stage at the center of the hotel. He adjusted th

    She did not have any resistance to the jade necklace. Together with the background story, Emma could not wait to buy it immediately.However, she knew that the necklace must be very expensive.Up to one hundred customers in the room looked pretty rich, so it would not be Emma’s turn.Neil could tell what she was thinking, so he purposely asked, “Ms. Hill, I can tell that you seem to like the necklace very much, huh?”Emma had initially wanted to deny it, but she really could not do it!She did not answer, and it meant that she had silently admitted to it because she really liked the necklace.It was easier to handle the situation since she liked it!Neil chuckled and said, “Beautiful flowers fit pretty women. You’re such a charming woman, so of course, it is only fitting that such a poignant necklace suit a gorgeous woman like you. Since you like it, I’ll buy it for you.”“Huh?”Emma wrapped her mind around it at that moment. She had been set up.It was true that she liked it

    Everyone looked at Neil in surprise. It was $9,000,000, not $90. How could he just say that number? He did not even blink at all.He was a rich guy.He was definitely a rich guy.“Tsk! Rich guys are really incredible. He’s spending $9,000,000 to buy a necklace. We’re really incomparable.”“Perhaps it’s for his true love. Otherwise, why would he spend so much money?”“The woman who managed to get this necklace must have really been blessed with luck.”While everyone flattered him, Neil looked extremely happy, and he raised his head very high.Emma, who was sitting across from him, covered her face with her hands. She was afraid that others would misunderstand her for having any relationship with Neil.Meanwhile, Thomas was still calmly having his lunch.Emma secretly cursed. ‘Your wife is going to be taken by another man. How can you still continue eating?’The host on the stage said, “This sir is incredible. He has directly raised the price by $1,000,000. The starting price i

    “He dares to compete with Mr. Jenkins. He must be very rich.”“In my opinion, he likes the woman so much that he would rather take the risk to buy the necklace.”Eddie was stunned for a while. Was there someone who dared to compete with him?Haha! He casually said, “Fifteen million dollars. I want it!”He directly added $4,500,000!Eddie did not want to show Neil any respect as he planned to shut Neil up with one price.Neil shook his head and smiled bitterly. It looked like Eddie had to get the necklace, so he could not get it.Actually, it was already a little hard for Neil to spend $9,000,000, let alone $15,000,000. He could not afford it at all.Even if he took that money out, Eddie could still raise the price easily. He had no chance of winning at all.In the end, Neil shook his head. “I’m not following up.”Everyone sighed and looked away.That ending was what they had expected.Neil apologized as he said, “Ms. Hill, I’m really sorry. As long as it’s something Mr. J

    No one knew how far down the title Emperor of Luck was inherited.They had finally caught Luck.Following that, Eric leaped into action and reeled in his haul as fast as he could. 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
