Harvard’s mind buzzed. He sat in his chair while he calculated his profit and loss.

If he accepted the coordinator’s suggestion, he could get the factory as compensation, but he would lose the possibility of getting back the purchasing fund. But, if he insisted on getting back the purchasing fund, he might not get anything.

He was in a dilemma with these two options.

After Harvard felt hesitant for a long while, he chose to surrender.

“Okay, I accept the suggestion.”

If he accepted the suggestion, he could at least get a factory. He could think of a way to sell it or do whatever to the factory. At least, he could have one room for maneuver, and it was better than getting nothing.

This was the best ending at the moment.

After he left the court, Harvard gloomily went back to his office. Stanley immediately came over and asked, “Mr. Hill, what’s wrong? Is the Urban Construction Bureau suing us?”

Harvard shook his head.

“They aren’t suing us?” Stanley curiously asked, “So, what’s

    “Hey, that’s really good news. This time, you’ve profited from the misfortune. With Ted’s factory, you don’t need to be troubled with raw materials. If you manage it well, you can manufacture, promote, and use it for yourself. It’s worth it.”Harvard also thought the same.With the factory, Harvard had more power, and he also had more confidence to compete with Lucas.Sometimes misfortune was really a blessing in disguise.Harvard paused for a while before he asked the question that he was very concerned about. “Um, I want to ask you something.”“What is it?”“Thomas, are you the person who helped me to get through this difficulty?”There was silence on the other end of the call for a few seconds before Thomas’ cheerful chuckling could be heard.“Harvard, I’m not the one who helped you this time. It’s fate. You’re pretty lucky, so you’re able to turn danger into a fortune. But, you have to be careful. If this thing happens again, you might not be as lucky as this time.”Harvar

    In the old Hill family home, the housekeeper led Thomas into the reception room, and he took his seat.After a while, Richard walked inside with a tray. There were two teacups and a teapot on the tray.Thomas quickly stood up.“Hey, please have a seat.” Richard invited Thomas to sit down. Then, he placed a teacup in front of Thomas and personally poured him a cup of tea.Thomas stared at the tea and did not move for a long time.Richard sat down and chuckled as he asked, “Why aren’t you drinking it? Are you afraid that my tea is poisonous?”Thomas chuckled. “I’m not afraid that it’s poisonous. But, I can’t accept this reward without deserving it. Why do you suddenly want to treat me to some tea?”Richard nodded. “Okay. If I don’t say it, I guess you won’t drink the tea at ease. I treat you to the tea because I want to thank you for your effort. Thank you for helping my disappointing grandson, Harvard.”When he said that, Thomas instantly understood.He picked up the teacup and

    Thomas drank the last sip of the tea. “It looks like we’ve helped Harvard on the surface, but it’s actually very destructive to him.“A spoiled kid will not grow up maturely.“If he wants to grow, he has to experience obstacles and difficulties. If we want to train Harvard to become the head of the Hill family and make him independent, we have to let him experience more obstacles and encounter various problems.“For example, Lucas taught Harvard a lesson this time. If this kind of thing happens again, I believe that Harvard will be extremely careful and cautious, and he will not be deceived again.”Richard finally understood Thomas’s intention.Thomas did not indulge Lucas and Jade. Instead, he was keeping them to train Harvard so that Harvard could encounter different kinds of difficulties and improve himself in the shortest time.In this case, after Harvard became the head of the family, he could also hold the position firmly.Richard was deeply convinced.He showed his thumb

    After a long time, Richard raised his head and stared at Thomas. He unhappily asked, “Thomas, I really don’t understand. Why do you want me to do it… such a shameful thing?”Thomas chuckled.“Yes, you’re father, and my father in-law is your son. It looks like it’s troubling you if I ask you to sing a song to wish him.“But after all, you’re his father.“Isn’t it a righteous thing for the father to pamper the son? Let alone to sing a song, even if the father has to get the moon or sacrifice his life for the son, it’s also a piece of cake.”Richard still did not feel satisfied. “This sounds right, but you also know our relationship. He doesn’t consider me his father anymore.”“Mr. Hill, it’s better to make friends than make rivals, not to mention that both of you are father and son. Listen to me, take this opportunity to reconcile with my father in-law on his birthday.”After Thomas advised Richard for a long time, he still did not turn Thomas down in the end. He nodded to agree w

    “How do you define a rich person? This is how you do it!”These senior family members kept complimenting Thomas. They complimented all aspects they could, like his ability, character, and appearance. This made Thomas very embarrassed. He sat on the chair and lowered his head. He almost did not have the courage to look around.Thomas had been through a lot of hardships, but his only weakness might be that he felt shy when he was complimented by these senior family members. This made him feel more awkward than when he was insulted.Emma nudged Thomas. She giggled and said, “Are you feeling shy? It’s unlike you.”Thomas shrugged helplessly. He could not say anything.Emma chuckled and said, “You usually don’t care about anything. No matter how people insult and scold you, you don’t mind it. Why do you suddenly care about that today? Haha!” Thomas ignored Emma when she teased him. He quietly turned around. When Emma saw that Thomas was behaving like a child, she grinned more bri

    Harvard sat next to Thomas. Then, he took out an exquisite rectangular black box from his coat and handed it over.“Uncle Johnson, this is the present I bought for you. Please accept it.”“Oh, what’s this?”Johnson took it, and he opened the box in front of people. Inside the box was an exquisite vintage ink pen.Judging from its color, he could tell that it was very expensive.“Um, Harvard, this pen isn’t cheap, right? It cost you a lot of money, didn’t it?”Harvard said, “Eh, it’s just a pen. It didn’t cost me a lot. The more important thing is that you like calligraphy, Uncle Johnson. With this ink pen, you can write better if you use just a bit more strength when you write.”Felicia shook her head. “Harvard, you might be disappointed. He likes calligraphy, but his handwriting is really unpleasant.”Johnson rolled his eyes at her. “What are you talking about? You talkative woman. When men are talking, women should not interrupt.”Felicia chuckled, and she ignored him.The

    Everyone was fascinated by Alexander’s singing, and they clapped to praise him. It was totally worth it to hear Alexander sing live!But, Johnson was not happy no matter what.Alexander was invited by Lucas. The better he sang, the more Lucas shone, and the worse Thomas appeared.This dinner was held so that he could show off Thomas, but Lucas stole the thunder. What the heck was going on?Therefore, even though Johnson liked Alexander, he could not get happy no matter what.Twenty minutes later, Alexander finally finished his performance. He got off the stage and went to rest.The loud applause showed the audience’s enthusiasm and their affection for this first-class celebrity. At this time, Lucas looked at Johnson with the ghost of a smile, and he asked, “How’s the performance, Uncle Johnson?”Johnson scoffed. “Not bad.”“Not bad? Haha, Uncle Johnson, you sound so arrogant, don’t you? Mr. Kaufman is the best opera singer in the world. Is he just ‘not bad’ for you?”Johnson

    Everyone in the room was shocked. All of them just stood and watched. Nobody dared to sit down.Even if the people could not respond quickly, they were also able to recognize the opera singer on the stage. But, all of them were puzzled as to why Mr. Hill Sr. would come.Everyone knew that Mr. Hill Sr. and Johnson were father and son, but their relationship was extremely bad.It was not as if they could not reconcile. They just did not want to get along with each other as both of them did not want to see each other.With that sort of relationship, why would Mr. Hill Sr. set aside his dignity and come over?But Johnson was the one who was the most surprised. He was so stunned that he got up. When he saw his father on the stage, he seemed to be slightly dazed, as if he was dreaming.This was impossible. Why would his father come over?This was surreal.He rubbed his eyes, and he confirmed what he was seeing was real, not his hallucination.As he watched, his eyes became a little

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
