"Dear, guests. Welcome to the annual New Year's banquet of the great Richards Manor. Richards Manor is the pride of A City..." Earl McAdams had a clear, booming voice, and spoke proudly and passionately. He talked about the bright lights that shone on the Central Island. Among the silent crowd, a few staff members dressed in black clothes and name cards walked out from the backstage. Very soon, they approached Earl. The crowd was shocked. "Earl McAdams, please come with us." Someone who looked like the leader said in a calm manner as he showed Earl McAdams his work permit. Earl was stunned by the sudden turn of events. He furrowed his brows slightly, and was just about to get angry when he peered at the person's work permit. In an instant, his face turned as pale as snow and his hands began to tremble. He could no longer stand still. "Take him." The leader ordered the two staff members behind him who were dressed in black suits. The two s
"I guess that's true." Hansen said coldly after listening to Norton challenging it multiple times. "Moreover, when I first heard that it was the Pranica car that had killed Javon, I thought you were the one who killed him. After all, you hated Jenna and Javon very much at that time." Norton recalled hinting to Jenna that Hansen was involved in her father's death, in hopes that Jenna would leave Hansen and hate him after she learnt about the news. Who would've known that she didn't believe him at all, and never broke up with Hansen. Instead, they were even closer and in love. Now that he thought about it, Jenna really loved Hansen, and she trusted him out of love. However, now it seemed that it was truly someone else who had killed Javon Murphy. Hansen's bright eyes were filled with rage. It seemed that the two of them had been fooled by someone else. It was evident that the mastermind behind all of this had taken the opportunity to kill Javon after they found ou
"Aunt Ella, where's your Young Madam?" Hansen roared. Aunt Ella ran up to him nervously, and said softly, "Young Master, Young Madam had already left." "What? She left? Who allowed her to leave?" Hansen was shocked upon hearing that. His furious expression was frightening. "This..." Aunt Ella didn't know what to do. She advised softly with a low voice, "Young Master, you're going to marry Aria soon. I can't bear seeing her being stuck here. It's too painful for her." Aunt Ella said with tears in her eyes. "Nonsense, This is absurd." Hansen was so angry that he shouted. All of a sudden, a thought flashed across his mind, and his face turned pale. He remembered Alvin's words. Jonas was going to harm Rayan, and she had definitely gone to look for him. Before she got into his car the night before, he heard her say that she would go and look for him the next day. She was in danger. He sped out of the room immediately. As he ran, he
Hansen saw the frightening figure of a white shirt faintly among the green leaves, and his heart started to palpitate. His eyes were wide open, and he was very nervous. The muzzle of a black gun was pointed towards Jenna's back. He was so shocked that he yelled out, "Jenna, be careful." As he shouted, a gunshot boomed through the air, and a bullet was shot towards Jenna's back. "How dare you seduce my man. Go to hell." The fire in Hilda's heart was set ablaze. She shifted the gun from Rayan to Jenna, and pulled the trigger. Rayan had gone through gunfights before as well, and Hansen's scream alerted him. He lifted his head, and spotted the bullet speeding towards Jenna. In an instant, he pulled Jenna into his embrace and turned around, trying to avoid the bullet. However, Hilda's shot was incredibly precise. So, he wasn't able to dodge the shot. The bullet pierced his left chest. "Rayan!" Jenna screamed in shock. "Jenna!" Rayan called out
The phone rang, and Hansen picked it up. His brows furrowed into a straight line. "Come home with me now." He hung up the phone and instructed Jenna right away. "No, Hansen, I have to watch over him. He's injured because of me. I have to stay here and take care of him." she said repeatedly, shaking her head. Hansen's expression changed, and he extended his arm to grab her hand. Jenna looked up at Hansen with her pitiful gaze. Her eyes were bright but full of helplessness. The tenderness in her watery eyes was a huge blow to his heart. His heart softened. He no longer dared to intimidate her with brute force. After a long while, he sighed heavily and said, "Fine, you can watch over him, but make sure that you get enough rest. Remember, you're a pregnant woman." He instructed her with a darkened face. Then, he turned around and left the hospital. In the hall of the Ink Garden, all the doors and windows were shut tightly. There wasn't a sing
No crime will ever go unpunished. Earl McAdams forgot that a woman named Vivian Delia resided among the Richards family. Ever since she was a child, that woman was no ordinary woman, she had already noticed everything that was happening. When Hansen was about to capture Brock alive, she made Christopher rush over to stop him. That way, Brock was able to show his true self, and they succeeded in helping Norton shake off the identity of a scapegoat. If Hansen had captured Brock alive at that time, all the crimes would've been pushed to Norton, and Brock would've never known that Sheldon was involved as well. Earl sat in the interrogation room. He recalled that day, when it was Vivian's birthday, and she only invited him and Jenna into her room. When he went in, she looked very pleasant, and decisively agreed to let Aria stay in Richards Manor. Now that he thought of it, he realized that it was just her strategy to delay their attacks. Once Aria resided at Richards
In the Emerald Garden, General Delia and Claude Richards sat on the Italian leather couch in the living room, with different expressions on their faces. His second wife, Maria Clancy, sat next to him with a dejected look. Her face was full of sorrow, and her eyes were red and swollen, filled with despair. His first wife, on the other hand, looked very calm. The corners of her mouth had curved into a mocking smile. The servants served them some tea, and then left quietly. "General Delia, please have some tea." Claude was knowledgeable, and knew that he was the one at fault. In a situation like that, he had no choice but to speak apologetically and humbly. General Delia's face was stiff, and his expression was as cold as ice. He snorted lightly, and accepted the teacup that Claude had handed to him. Then, he lifted the cover of the cup, blew onto the tea lightly, and took a small sip. The aroma of the tea diffused into the depths of his heart, and his expres
"Speak. Tell me your name, who you are, and what you've done," Hansen barked at him sternly. Hansen barely returned to the company for the past few days. He and Jordan spent the nights interrogating about what had happened in Richards Group mansion. These people had already confessed the truth. The reason why they held the meeting this day was to let everyone know the truth behind the matter and some untold things. They even specially invited several reliable media for that. When the time came, they would unravel some things to the public and display to others how fair and just the Richards Group was in handing matters. Raising his head, the young man cleared his throat. He then introduced himself, "My name is Mattias Forbes and I started a private security service company. Three years ago, an exceedingly noble lady had approached me and gave me five hundred thousand dollars to sleep with a woman at Zevery Hotel. As long as I slept with her, the money would be mine. At that
