“What?” When Richard heard her words, he felt surprised but happy. His tone was filled with excitement. He chuckled as he said, “They want Thomas to pay $900,000,000? Haha, how can this be?”

“Grandpa, Thomas doesn’t have that amount of money. Could you help pay off the debt?”

Richard immediately became serious. “Emma, are you joking? It’s $900,000,000, not $900. How could I have so much money?”

Didn’t we get $3,000,000,000 worth of investments yesterday?”

“That’s the startup fund for the construction project. It’s not for paying back your husband’s debt!”

“But, the construction project actually just needs $300,000,000 for a start. You can use the remaining to help Thomas. We’ll pay it back in the future.”

“Pay it back? How can you pay it back?” Richard said with contempt. “The poor Thomas will never be able to return it. I’m not so silly to take out the money and pay the debt off for him. If the Top Ten Companies ask about the money, how will I explain it to them?”

    It was time to use him after Thomas had kept him in his contacts for a long time. It was Ballard’s turn to show up.Thomas made the call in front of Sick Tiger to make Ballard bring a few people over and help handle some small issues.Sick Tiger scoffed. “Are you bringing people over? Haha! Let me tell you, you’re in my hands, and it’s useless even if you call anyone here. Who wouldn’t respect me in Southland City?”Thomas hung up. He stood still while he waited quietly.Emma was worried, and she muttered to herself, “Who will Thomas call over?”Johnson chuckled. “He’s a famous poor person, who can he call over? He’s so good at putting on airs.”Within ten minutes, three white vans drove over.When the doors opened, a group of bald men got out of the vehicles, and every one of them was holding a weapon.Sick Tiger initially felt a little frightened when he saw this. However, when he saw that one of the people who arrived was Ballard, he subconsciously sighed in relief.He smil

    Ballard lifted Sick Tiger up and carried him up to Thomas. He pressed him down so that he would be kneeling on the floor.“Hurry up and apologize to my boss.”Sick Tiger stammered, and he could not say it.“Do you still want to be beaten up?”“No, I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” Sick Tiger looked up at Thomas and fearfully said, “Boss, please forgive me. Please ignore me. Please, could you just spare me? I guarantee that I won’t come and make a scene at your house again, or I’ll be killed by a thunder strike.”Anyway, Sick Tiger was just someone else’s tool. He was not the person behind the whole thing, so Thomas did not bother to be petty with him either.“Get out of here now.”“Oh, I’m leaving now. We’re leaving now.”Sick Tiger quickly crawled out of the spot. He brought his people with him and drove away from the house. He dared not stay at the house at all.On the spot, Ballard chuckled as he said, “Boss, what do you think of my performance?”Thomas rubbed his nose and coughed. “

    188 Woody Avenue, the branch of Union Bank of Switzerland in the Southland district.Thomas walked pridefully into the bank and directly made his way to the VIP lane.“Welcome. May I know…” The representative smiled faintly as he walked forward. People who were able to use the VIP lane in the Union Bank of Switzerland were usually wealthy. So, representatives like them always welcomed them with smiling faces and dared not neglect the clients at all.However, when he saw Thomas’ cheap clothes and noticed that Thomas was not even accompanied by any bodyguard or assistant, his face immediately darkened.“Excuse me, this is the VIP lane. Someone like you should come over here.“If you want to handle business, please go to the counter at the side.”There were always people who carelessly used the wrong lane. They were ordinary members, but they would go through the VIP lane. So, the representative always needed to differentiate whether the person was a real VIP client or he had just

    He stared coldly at the representative by the side. “You can pack your stuff and leave.”“Please don’t, Mr. Smith. I…” “Why? Do you want me to send you off?”The representative dared not say anything else. He obediently packed his stuff and left. He had nothing to say about his ending, and all he could only blame it on the fact that he had been too arrogant.If he had been a little polite, he would not have ended up being fired. He just needed to speak normally.Brian could not be bothered with the representative anymore. He led Thomas to go through the VIP lane and come to the premium VIP room, which was the noblest room inside the bank.The room had the highest privacy, so they did not have to worry if any secret was going to be leaked out at all.Brian invited Thomas to take his seat before he asked, “Mr. Mayo, what is it for you to personally come to me this time?”Thomas said, “I’m here to take back my card. It has been so many years. It should have some money, right?”B

    When Thomas heard it, he also subconsciously became shocked. He knew he had money in his card, but he did not expect there to be so much money.Even if he had trained himself up for not expressing his emotions after getting involved in wars throughout the years, he still could not help but open his mouth widely in shock at this time.He smiled awkwardly as he said, “Mr. Smith, thank you for managing it for me these years. Honestly, I know nothing about finance. If you didn’t help me, my money would’ve been just ‘dead money.’”Brian felt flattered. “Mr. Mayo, you don’t have to be so polite like this. Not to mention that I just help you manage your finances, I’ll also be willing to even if I have to give my life to you.”“Ehem, that’s too much.”Brian continued to say, “Mr. Mayo, you can keep this card, and you can use it at any time. Meanwhile, you can still let me manage your assets. In that case, I can guarantee you to have continuous income. The ‘dead money’ will come ‘alive’ th

    After Emma hung up, she was confused as she put on her shoes, drove, and rushed to Coffee and Dream Cafe. Just as she parked her car, she saw Johnson walking over.“Dad, why did you ask me to come here?”Johnson sized Emma up and nodded. “Good, you look quite decent now. Come with me.”He also did not explain as he pulled Emma’s arm and walked into the coffee shop. Then, he arranged for her to sit in the private room.A man with middle-length hair sat opposite of Emma, and he looked pretty artistic. The man was not old as he looked in his late twenties.Johnson introduced, “Emma, this is Mr. Becko whom I have mentioned to you before. He’s my director’s son. His name is Jeffy Becko. Have a good time chatting.”Emma was stunned. What on earth was going on now?She was called over in a daze, and she had to talk to a strange man? What could she talk about?Jeffy stared at Emma carefully and nodded.“Well, you’re quite good-looking. Your figure is also pretty. You match my beauty s

    Jeffy firmly believed that she would agree to marry him as this was an absolutely good opportunity. She could marry into a wealthy family, and she could also get rid of the huge debt disputes.Only a fool would turn him down.But… Emma smiled faintly as she shook her head and pushed the cheque back to him. “I’m sorry. If I need to spend the rest of my life with an uncultured person like you, I rather commit suicide with the huge debt.”What she meant was that death was better than being with him.Jeffy was angry. He tore the cheque into pieces, stood up, and fiercely said, “I gave you the chance because you look quite decent. But, you’re so ungrateful. You want more, do you? Do you think I really like you? Just go kill yourself with your lousy husband!”Johnson wanted to stop Jeffy, but Jeffy pushed him away.He pointed at Johnson and said, “Old man, do you still want to work for my father? Haha! Just wait to be fired!”Jeffy angrily slammed the door and left.In the private

    Even if they had to prepare a proper proposal, they were also unable to do so. They could not say they were paying the debt with their whole life, could they? Besides, it was very unlikely for them to pay off the $900,000,000 debt in their life.While they stammered, Clarus glanced around before he asked, “Where’s the debtor, Thomas Mayo?”When he mentioned Thomas, Johnson became furious. “I have no idea where that brat is.”“You don’t know?” Clarus coldly said, “Don’t ever think that you’ll be able to run away. If you dare to run away with the debt, that will worsen the situation. You’d better turn Thomas in now, or all of you have to report yourselves in the police station today.”“You…” Johnson gritted his teeth, and he did not know what he should say. Thomas left very early, and he also did not say where he went. Most importantly, his phone had been shut down. How were they going to look for him?Johnson even suspected that Thomas might have really run away.If Thomas ran a

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
