Thomas smiled and said, “Stellar Jewelers is a world-famous brand and cares about the word ‘credibility’ the most. If your superiors in the Milan headquarters or the Southland District regional office knew that you are destroying the reputation of Stellar Jewelers to sell your counterfeit items, what would your superiors think of you?”‘Seriously?‘If he can say things like this, he must know the operation of Stellar Jewelers quite well.‘So what?’If Mr. McCain dared to make this move, he must have someone on his back and he was not afraid of being sued at all.He said disdainfully, “Since you mentioned that, just go ahead to sue me. Do you want me to tell you the number of the Complaints Line? You can call now.”Before Thomas managed to speak up, someone from behind shouted, “If you are capable, just do it!”Mr. McCain snorted coldly, “Secretary, give them the number."His secretary immediately came over and notified the number of the Complaints Line to the protestors at the
Mr. McCain and Raymond glanced at each other, and they were tacitly showing their treacherous smiles.At this time, Emma came over and said, “Can you show me the invoices and receipts?”“Yes.”Raymond passed them over to Emma.Emma was a top executive of Hill Manufacturing Company, and she was very proficient in this kind of aspect. She could tell whether the documents were fakes or not at a glance.After inspecting carefully, Emma sighed.“They are truly fake documents.”At this time, the middle-aged men and women had become even more untenable. They pointed at Raymond’s nose and screamed, and even wanted to rush over to give Raymond two big slaps.Luckily, the security guards immediately rushed in to grab hold of the woman’s hand and took her away directly.“Erm, can you look at what kind of place this is? How dare you try to create trouble? You got the guts!”Raymond reprimanded everyone, “Now that the truth has come out. All of you are holding fake invoices and receipts t
The people on the site were trying to suppress their anger, but they were helpless.However, Thomas was indifferent and calmly said, “When I said that I will be helping you to get a full refund, I am sure I’ll be doing it. It doesn’t matter whether there’s any evidence or not. You have my word and you will get your refund back!”Raymond gazed at Thomas like an idiot, ‘Whoa, why? Do you think you are some kind of a great God?”Before his words faded away, a silver BMW was approaching them slowly and stopped at the side of the road.Then, an old gentleman got out of the car.When this person emerged in front of everyone, Raymond and Mr. McCain were shocked at the same time. The two of them hurriedly threw away their cigarette butts and stood respectfully.This person was exactly Liam Quinn, the deputy director of Stellar Jewelers for the Southland District branch!“Mr. Quinn, why are you here?” Raymond asked politely.Liam Quinn maintained his composure while walking towards them
Mr. McCain quickly tugged Raymond’s sleeve to ask him to speak up for him. Raymond could not understand what was going on. He just thought that Liam was just momentarily angry, and that was why he gave such a harsh punishment. He put on a smile and said, “Mr. Quinn, honestly—”But before he finished speaking, Liam immediately cut him off. “Raymond Dunkley!”“Urk. What is it, Mr. Quinn?”“You’re the department director of Stellar Jewellers in Southland District, but you showed favoritism when you employed your staff, and you let him humiliate and go up against our superior! You’re a bastard! You are unable to manage your subordinates, and you’re fired too. Now, I will remove you from your position as the department director. Go with him to the finance department, get your money, and leave.”‘What?’Raymond did not know what he should say. He was different from Mr. McCain. At most, Mr. McCain was just the manager of a branch. Any other person could take his place. In truth, he
Everything was within his control. Raymond asked, “Just who are you?”“I’m Thomas Mayo. I’m normal person defending rights.”“Thomas Mayo?” Raymond tried to recall who he was, and suddenly, he widened his eyes. He found the name familiar but also alien. As a department director, he received a notice not long ago, and it mainly stated that there was a change in positions in Stellar Jewellers. The owner of the family had been changed from the old lady to the eldest son. There were also a few postscripts in the notice, stating that a man named Thomas Mayo had joined the board of directors with an exception to the rules and obtained thirty percent of the company’s shares. Thomas Mayo! This was the man, Thomas Mayo!He had only ever heard of his name, but never saw him in person, that was why Raymond could not recognize Thomas. Of course, he did not expect that he would be this unlucky. He had worked together with his nephew to scam people, but they had ended up scamming Thomas’s
As a submissive housewife, Felicia Musk had not enjoyed such an experience before. But today, this experience totally lifted her spirits.Brandishing the hammer like a descended god of war, she frantically hammered the counter, venting all her frustrations.Emmy was afraid that her mother would accidentally hurt herself, hence she hurried forward and told her to take it easy.Thomas Mayo stood here, smirking.Liam Quinn came over and stood beside Thomas. He said softly, “Mr. Mayo, Milan headquarters have decided to expand in Southland District to strengthen the brand. The owner will be here in person soon. I hope that you can provide some suggestions for the layout of Stellar Jewellers in Southland District when the time comes.”Thomas replied softly, “I understand. I will help him when he’s here.”“I thank you in advance on behalf of the owner.”“We’re all family here, there’s no need to be so courteous.”Felicia got her reimbursement after hammering away and left with a conte
The question was...Thomas said, “Filming a movie takes time and effort. If we were to wait for it to be done, it would be too late, right?”Anna said, “Rest assured, we will add more directors and screenwriters immediately to work on the scriptwriting. At the same time, the completed parts can be filmed as well, then we can compile and edit them at the end.”“Although some varied quality is to be expected, we are not focusing on the content but on what it is for. We are to earn as much as we can from this for the sake of charity.”Thomas nodded. “Alright then, let’s do it your way.”After the discussion, everyone went to work on their respective tasks.Shalom Technology launched their brand new rehabilitation product immediately, while Scott’s Remembrance Culture Arts Entertainment worked on the scriptwriting at full speed. They also ensured the well-known actors would participate too.Everything progressed at a huge scale.An operation of such scale could not stop any rumours
Shalom Technology’s newly released rehabilitation equipment became a hit in the market in the next couple of days. A huge number of the injured’s family members hurried to shops that sold the equipment to assist the recovery of their loved ones.Shalom Technology did not only donate, they too provided the public with the needed equipment. This news made it into numerous news and entertainment media and was highly acclaimed.For the past few days, not only Thomas took responsibility in the management matters of Southland District, he too had been monitoring the performance of Shalom Technology. Even though they did not profit during this period of time, but they managed to increase their reputation.It could not be denied that a successful enterprise need a good reputation.Once this was established, everything that Shalom Technology developed in the future would be well received by the public.As Thomas and Ben both discussed their next steps in the office, the receptionist came i
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
