“How dare he?! How dare he do this?!”

“Thomas is just a son-in-law who relies on his wife. Who is he to act arrogantly in front of me? He is ridiculous! Darn it!”

Harvard slowly walked inside and said, “Grandpa, don’t get angry. Actually, this matter can still be solved.”

“Can it be solved? How can we solve this?”

Harvard then said, “Grandpa, although you let Emma enter the bid with her subsidiary company, you just agreed to it verbally. You didn’t even put it down in black and white. If you don’t want to honor it, what else can she do?

“Also, didn’t you also establish her subsidiary company? It is also a part of the Hill family! Even if Emma wants to take over the huge project alone, our family wouldn’t allow her!

“In other words, is Emma even capable of handling the project on her own? Without our family’s help, will she have any money, manpower, and technique? She has nothing! How can she carry out the project?”

When Richard listened to Harvard’s words, they made sense to him

    At night, after dinner, Johnson called Thomas over to sit next to him on the couch.“Thomas, do you know why I asked you to come over?”Thomas shook his head.Johnson scoffed and felt disappointed. “I called you here to remind you to find something to do when you’re free. Don’t keep wandering around and doing nothing. You can also see that Emma is a beautiful woman who has signed a big contract. She is becoming capable.“But what about you? You do nothing all day long, and you’re just relying on a woman. Does that make sense?“You’re totally not good enough for our Emma now!”Emma walked over, and she looked unhappy.“Dad, how could you criticize Thomas like that?”“Why can’t I say that?” Johnson seemed serious. “I’m stating facts. You are now the person in charge of the big project, and you’ll be earning a few hundred million dollars. You’re getting wealthy. Would a lousy man be suitable for you?”“Dad!”“Anyway, Thomas is not good for you at this point.” Johnson then pointe

    “How could they do this to me?“No way! I need to talk to them!”Thomas immediately pulled her. “You don’t have to.”“Why? Do we just abruptly give away the contract, which we’ve signed, to the family? Grandpa would rather give Jade the advantage to Jade than give me any benefits even though I was the one who secured the contract. He’s gone too far.”Thomas said, “Calm down first. You don’t have to feel anxious about this.”“Why?”“Because other than you, nobody from the Hill family can take this project.”Emma was stunned. “But, we’ve signed the contract. It’s too late for even the Urban Construction Bureau to regret it.”“Contract and real work are two different things.“Emma, don’t worry, you’ll carry out this project. Nobody can take it away from you.“Didn’t Grandpa grant you a two-day leave? That’s great. We can leave the city now. What about we take a flight and travel?”Emma was confused. “Um…” “Listen to me. Nothing will go wrong. Let’s go.”Thomas brought Emma w

    “I understand.” Richard appeared to be quite upset. He reached out to point at Harvard. “Give Emma a call. Ask her to come over immediately.”“I got it, Grandpa.”Beep!Beep!The call was finally picked up after it rang for almost one minute.Harvard was angry, and he fiercely said, “Emma, why did you take so long to answer the call? Hurry up and come to the company now.”In the end, a male voice was heard on the other end of the line. “Is that you, Harvard? Excuse me, Emma can’t go.”Everyone could hear that it was Thomas’ voice.“What do you mean?” Harvard asked.“Didn’t Grandpa give Emma two days of leave? So, I brought Emma to Santa Bay. We’re sunbathing on the beach now, therefore, we can’t go back immediately.”“How dare you!”Harvard was furious. They were still in the mood for sunbathing in Santa Bay at such a critical time?“Pass me the phone,” Richard yelled.He took the phone and intentionally suppressed his anger. “Stop playing, Thomas. We’re discussing the con

    She had finally forced her grandfather to surrender today.Two of them had fun for the whole day before they leisurely took a flight back to Southland City. By the time they returned, the sky had turned totally dark.Richard had purposely sent someone to the airport to pick them up and bring them back to the company. He was afraid that Thomas might cause a problem on the way again.When the two of them arrived in the meeting room, it was nearly 9.00 pm.The meeting room was full of people, and Cillian calmly made his way to the Hill family’s office building again.Richard sighed in relief. “So, can we officially start the meeting now?”Emma stood up and organized the proposal again before she talked about every detail. The meeting went on until 7.00 am the next day.The meeting was held for the whole night.After all the discussions were finished, Cillian kept complimenting Emma.“Well done! You’re impressive! I’ve indeed made the right decision to choose you.“Ms. Hill, I fe

    Around 8.00 am in the morning, the Southland University of Foreign Studies’ north gate.Many supercars were parked by the road, and they were there to pick up young and beautiful girls.“Susan, I heard that your cousin’s coming to pick you up?”“Yeah.”“Your cousin’s a famous and beautiful woman in Southland. We finally have the honor of meeting her today.”Susan shook her head and turned around.Right then, a silver Lexus stopped at the roadside, and Susan immediately recognized it as her cousin’s car.“Emma!”She jogged over, but after the car door was opened, an unfamiliar man walked out of the car.“Who are you?”“I’m Thomas Mayo, your brother-in-law.”All of Susan’s friends came over, and they had a sardonic look on their faces.“Hey, Susan, why didn’t your cousin personally come? I think she doesn’t really care about you.”“I heard that your brother-in-law is a son-in-law who relies on his wife. She’s really showing you the greatest ‘respect’ by asking him to pick yo

    At that moment, a muscular and bald man with a tattoo of two dragons on his body and a height of 1.9 meters walked out from the crowd.He smirked and said, “Why? Is there anyone who doesn’t know me, Ballard, in Southland City?”“What conflict do you have with Susan?” Thomas asked.“Conflict?” Ballard took out an account book. “This girl borrowed twenty thousand dollars from me last month. She said that she would pay me back today, but she asked us to wait for her at the university’s east gate and ran away from the north gate. What do you think about that?”Thomas turned around, cast a glance at Susan in the car, and shook his head slightly.“I’ll help her return the twenty thousand dollars.”“Huh? What did you say?”Ballard laughed out loud, and about twenty other bald men also laughed. They stared at Thomas like he was stupid.“Are you a freaking idiot? She borrowed twenty thousand dollars, but you just want to return twenty thousand dollars? Do you think our group is a charit

    Ballard could not wrap his head around it at that moment. He was taken aback for a few seconds before he suddenly burst out laughing.“Hey, did you hear that?“This stupid guy just asked me for money. He wants me to pay him back one million per second.“Hey! I’m really scared.”Ballard poked Thomas’ head with his finger. “Hey lad, do you know how to spell the word ‘death’?”Thomas smiled faintly while he answered, “I don’t know how to spell. Why don’t you spell it for me?”“Let me teach you then!”Ballard raised his hand to slap Thomas, but before his hand landed, Thomas had held his finger.“Did you poke me with this finger just now?”Crack!His finger was bent back, and the bone was fractured.“Argh!” Ballard yelled, and he was in so much pain that his tears fell.Dush!Thomas then gave Ballard a kick in the belly and threw him onto the car opposite him.Ballard soon lay on the floor as he groaned in pain. “Kill him! Kill him now!”Susan was stunned. Was Thomas insane?

    Thomas reached out to her. “Have you borrowed money from any other people besides Ballard?”“Yeah, I have.”“Pass me your phone and tell me all the people whom you’ve borrowed money from.”“Okay.”Thomas took her phone, jotted down the names, and sent them to Samson. Then, he passed the phone back to Susan.“From now on, you’re no longer in debt.”“Huh? There are a few hundred thousand dollars in total. Have you paid all of it back?” Susan asked in shock.“Yeah.” Susan was completely stunned. This man was so astonishing to her.She had looked down on Thomas and attacked him with the most wicked words earlier. Yet, he was not angry now, and he had even helped her to pay back all her debts.He had repaid her outrage with goodwill.Susan really did not know how she should repay his kindness.“Why are you so good to me?”“Because you’re Emma’s cousin.”Thomas stepped on the accelerator, started the car, and left. Behind them, Ballard and his gang respectfully took a bow.“G

    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
