Clack!Mandy Zimmer stepped back when she pulled an exquisite firearm from her bag.The firearm was around the size of her lip gloss. There was only a single bullet loaded inside, but this was her only way to protect herself.“Oh!“A gun?!The Contractor whistled after seeing the firearm. He was not shocked or fearful at all.“It’d be easy for someone like you to get a legal document for that…“But that’s not the only thing you need.“Without long and intensive training, you can’t hit me with that bullet.“Besides, the police would be going after you first if you do pull the trigger.”The Contractor fiercely reached out for the firearm.Naturally, he did not expect Mandy to dare shoot him.Even if she did, he would not be too surprised.The Contractor was just about to reach Mandy’s tender hand…When a Rolls Royce Phantom instantly stopped in front of him.Two G-Wagons were also seen protecting the front and back of the car.The car doors opened at the same time.A cal
“Do you think you can just come and go as you please?”The man calmly smiled when he blew a puff of smoke.At the same time, the man with strong legs fiercely pounced forward, kicking the Contractor in an instant.The Contractor tried to defend himself but was just a little late.His body trembled when he was sent flying into the truck’s container.The container instantly dented as blood gushed out of the Contractor’s orifices. It was an extremely wretched sight.“I’m Evermore’s Contractor! Since you’re from the top ten families, you should understand what that name means!The Contractor showed a shocked expression.“Do you understand the consequences of doing something like this?!“Even if you’re from the top ten families, you won’t get out of this unscathed!”The man in a gray-striped suit flicked the ash off his cigar before smiling faintly.“Nobody in Wolsing has the right to talk that way to me, Hector Thompson!”‘Hector Thompson?!‘One of the Four Young Masters of Wo
It seemed like Hector Thompson saw through everything in Mandy Zimmer’s mind after seeing the look on her face.“It’s not our first time seeing each other, Ms. Mandy,” he said, smiling faintly.“That said, we didn’t get to know each other on a deeper level since we both were partnered.“I was interested in you when the Jean family held a cocktail party at the Wolsing Hotel. I tried inviting you for a movie together…“But I stopped bugging you after you rejected me thrice.“After all, decency is crucial to us from the top ten families.“You should know that I wouldn’t try to earn a woman’s heart by orchestrating that big of a show.“After all, I have a high status. I can’t afford to embarrass myself like this.“If you still don’t believe me…Hector opened something on his phone before throwing it on the table.“Have a look at this.”Mandy instinctively glanced at the screen before seeing Hector’s schedule. Judging from the schedule, he was supposed to attend a launch conferen
In sweltering weather, a middle-aged woman with a mink fur coat covered in all sorts of jewelry quickly entered.A pure young woman was following behind her.The middle-aged woman completely ignored Hector Thompson when she rushed towards Mandy Zimmer.“Are you alright, my dear?“I heard you got in trouble before I bought anything at the Olden Trade!“Which bastard did this to you?!“You’re the head of the ninth branch!“You’re also managing the Jean family’s affairs in Wolsing!“They’re going against the entire family doing this!“They must have a death wish!”The person was none other than Lilian Yates. Xynthia Zimmer was the one following behind.Mandy gave Xynthia a look after seeing Lilian’s face.“Don’t worry, Mother. I’m fine.“It’s just a car accident.”Hector’s eyes lit up instantly before faintly smiling while stepping forward.“Ms. Mandy’s okay, Aunty.“My lawyers will take care of the accident.”“You?Lilian showed a demanding expression.“Speak! Were you
Hector Thompson smiled faintly.“Sorry, Aunty.“The people did give me the title…“But I’m just an ordinary man.“In a place like Wolsing, almost everyone here is a billionaire.“This is embarrassing…”“No! Not at all!Lilian Yates was smiling from ear to ear.“Fate will always bring people together, right? Besides, the internet says your net worth is billions of dollars!”Hector chuckled.“That’s because of the family. I’d be lucky even to have a billion to my name.”“What a bright young man you are!”Lilian’s eyes lit up. She has nothing but admiration for top-rated young masters like Hector.More importantly, she would be in the country’s top-rated circle if Mandy Zimmer were to marry him.After all, Lilian had lived in debauchery since she arrived in Wolsing for a few days. She ate meals worth a few thousand dollars in a private clubhouse and shopped in places with bags worth a hundred times more than that. There was simply no way for her to go back.More importantly
“You can’t go, Mother!”Mandy Zimmer spoke sternly after waiting for Hector Thompson to leave.She knew exactly what her mother was planning.Nobody knew if Hector mentioned the loan intentionally…But Mandy knew her mother would spend it all in a heartbeat.“Not only are you not listening to me, you’re even trying to babysit me?!Lilian Yates held her waist with a fierce expression.“Did that bastard contact you again?!“Let me tell you something! It doesn’t matter if he’s a prince or a CEO!“The top ten families and the five hidden families are the country’s top-rated circles!“You’re the head of the Jean family’s ninth branch! You’re also in charge of the family’s business in Wolsing!“You’re only allowed to talk to people like Young Master Hector!“Do you understand me?!”Mandy frowned.“That’s my business, Mother.“Besides, Hector might not be as good as you think.“He was probably the one who orchestrated the entire accident.“That’s why…”“He did?Lilian scoff
“What do you mean?Mandy Zimmer froze.“The company doesn’t even have that much money left?“There were still millions of dollars’ worth of surplus, right?”“There’s something you don’t know, Ms. Mandy. The wages for the workers at the construction site and the payment for supplies are due this month.“That said, the presale certificates for the commercial buildings haven’t been issued yet.“We can’t sell the buildings because of that.“And since we’ve been spending all that money without any cash flow, it’s only natural that we’re low on funds.“Besides, Aunty Lilian also spent millions of dollars in company funds last month.“If we wire her another 1.5 million now, we wouldn’t be able to explain this to the higher-ups once the accounting department finds out about this.”Naturally, the Jean family’s ninth branch was in charge of the real estate business in Wolsing.That said, because of the country’s economic trend and rapid development of technology, traditional housing h
A long-awaited call finally came when Harvey York finished his matters.Harvey looked at the number on the screen when he froze momentarily.“It’s been a while, Yvonne.”“The outskirts must be real fun, huh?”Yvonne Xavier spoke in a playful yet angsty tone.It was only normal. Yvonne had been handling Harvey’s matters in South Light, the Golden Sands, and Mordu.Yvonne was a reliable help, but even she was utterly swamped by all the work thrown at her.Harvey gave an awkward chuckle.“It’s alright. Thanks for helping me out with everything.“I’ll head over to you in two days. Are you in Mordu or South Light right now?”“Neither. I’m in Wolsing,” replied Yvonne quietly.“Wolsing? What are you doing there for?”Harvey froze. He never asked Yvonne to go there in the first place.“Did you think I wanted to come?Yvonne heaved a sigh.“You should know you’re one of the board members of Country H Commercial Group, right?”“Am I?Harvey seemed confused.“I’m a part of the g
