Jacob had no intention of returning the money, and Andy chose not to confront the issue. He was busy managing the Innova Group and arranging his wedding with Elly. He wanted to provide a perfect ceremony, and it had to be done before Elly's bump became noticeable.

Andy kept the guest list small. He did not invite relatives from the Bikmans but invited quite a lot of employees from the Innova Group, Williams Corp., and Sonnex Corp.

"When are you two going to get your wedding done?" Pierce asked.

Even though Eric and Sylvia had been registered for several years and were about to have a child, they had not held a wedding yet.

Sylvia smiled. "There's no rush for now. Everyone has been quite busy recently."

She felt that Eric was not ready yet.

Pierce nodded. "If you can't find the time, let the Combat Department arrange it. They can organize a special wedding for you."

Eric was a Lieutenant General, and Sylvia was considered part of the Combat Department, so they were entitled to

    Pierce visited Salt City not only to attend Andy's wedding but also to explore the possibility of the Innova Group venturing into certain areas.Although there were domestic military-industrial enterprises, the costs were too high, the technological capabilities were limited, and the process of updates and upgrades was exceptionally slow.Products from a decade ago were still in use today. Although they emphasized that those devices were stable and reliable, why not pursue advancement if they had the capability? Eric was not well-versed in the production of military-grade products. However, he understood that military-grade electronics might not always be the most cutting-edge but were undoubtedly the most reliable. Civilian and military applications were entirely different. If the Innova Group were to take on this challenge, it could be considered crossing into another industry."Are you planning to entrust this business to the Innova Group?" Eric asked cautiously.He hesitated

    If Eric were to utilize his authority and connections, he could undoubtedly secure substantial orders for the Innova Group. The domestic market alone could bring a lot of profit to the Innova Group. However, Eric had refrained from doing so as he did not want the thing that Sylvia mentioned from happening.While initially presenting as a device manufacturer, the Innova Group had progressively transitioned to becoming a communication solution provider in recent years. After all, the production of devices was bound to reach a saturation point sooner or later, but solutions were always a valuable and huge market.Pierce chuckled. "It's all for the sake of information security. The Innova Group's technology and devices have been market-tested. In fact, the military has tested your equipment, and the testing team provided high praise. As for your concern, it's an even smaller issue. You just do what you have to do. You don't have to care about what other people say!" Sylvia glanced at E

    This was life. The poor had their struggles, and the wealthy had their worries. Eric did not exactly yearn for the days when he earned only 1,000 dollars a month, as that was the darkest chapter in his life that he had rather not revisit.The Innova Group had enough employees to handle all the projects, so Eric did not have to constantly supervise the operation.While Andy and Elly were still on their honeymoon, the care of the two children fell temporarily to Eric and Sylvia.In the evening, Eric even had to help his nephews with their homework, which he found less than enjoyable.When Cody said that they still had to review and correct their homework, Eric was irritated. He asked, "Honey, back when we were in elementary school, did the teacher not correct the homework themselves? Why do parents have to do it?"He was rather exasperated. It would be acceptable if parents merely had to check whether the child had completed the homework, but making parents review it was a bit too m

    After teaching the boys to finish their homework, Eric felt exhausted. They were just in elementary school, yet he felt some of the questions were deep.Instead of enhancing children's learning capabilities, the questions seemed more like brain teasers, playing around with words. How could elementary school children understand these things?...After sending the boys to school in the morning, Eric dropped Sylvia off at the Williams residence to keep her company while Eric went to work. After all, it was livelier at the Williams residence, and Sylvia was bored at home alone.When Eric arrived at the Innova Group, Jacob actually showed up for work! His injuries might have improved quite a bit, but it still wasn't time for him to return to work yet."What are you doing here? Are all your injuries healed? If something happens, who's going to be responsible?"Jacob smiled. "I'm here to work. If I don't work, I'll have to go hungry."Eric frowned. He had heard from Andy that Jacob had

    Jacob was asking for trouble. He was broke, so he had to settle all of his meals in the company's cafeteria. After lunch, he called Andy to ask for money.Unfortunately, Andy and Elly were enjoying their honeymoon, so Andy didn't answer his call. Andy also knew that Jacob was calling to ask for money.Since Jacob was penniless, he had no choice but to turn to Eric. After all, he wasn't familiar with the new security guard."Mr. Johnson!" He knocked on the door with a smile and entered Eric's office.Eric was preparing to take a nap.He glanced at Jacob and asked, "What's up?""Mr. Johnson, do you have some money on you?"He was feeling a bit embarrassed.Eric drove a pricey car, so Jacob thought that someone like him should have some money on him.Eric instantly knew what Jacob wanted to do. "You want to borrow money? I don't have any money."Jacob exclaimed, "Really, Mr. Johnson? My brother told me that your car costs a fortune, and you have a private plane. It costs million

    Jacob hesitated before saying, "Actually, that money... was all spent on Ava."Eric was stunned.He thought Jacob must have spent some money on Ava but didn't expect him to spend over 30,000 dollars on her!Even Elly hadn't spent more than 1,000 dollars on herself. She had some bags that cost a few hundred dollars, but with Andy's income, he could easily afford such an expense.Eric looked Jacob up and down. He was wearing sportswear and canvas shoes, probably costing him less than 30 dollars in total. He couldn't help but marvel at Jacob's generosity.Jacob smiled at Eric. "Mr. Johnson, the 50 bucks..."Eric smiled and pushed the money toward Jacob. "Take it.""Thank you, Mr. Johnson!" Eric assumed Jacob would be thrifty. To his surprise, Jacob hailed a taxi directly to his residence after dining at Innova Group in the afternoon.-A little after 2:00 p.m., Max's teacher called Eric and asked him to come to the school. Before Andy and Elly left for their honeymoon, they had

    Unbeknownst to Lora, she had encountered a tough opponent.When it came to reasoning, Eric hadn't feared anyone yet. "Guardians have their responsibilities, and teachers have theirs. Saying that if guardians aren't responsible, teachers can shirk their responsibilities is just shifting the blame."Teachers and guardians should cooperate with each other, accompanying the students in their growth, shouldn't they? Just because you've encountered irresponsible guardians, does that mean you can neglect the students?"Lora was dumbfounded. She should be saying this to guardians, yet Eric turned the tables against her. She was at a loss for words again.Eric continued. "I know a teacher's job is demanding. You have to prepare lessons regularly and continue learning, but these aren't excuses."In the students' minds, what the teacher says is much more effective than what parents say. Parents can repeat something ten times, and the child may not remember. However, if the teacher teaches it

    Lora nodded. "Of course, I know. All the teachers know that the Innova Group has established an education fund specifically to help those impoverished students."Eric said, "The Innova Group is estimated to have a revenue of 110 billion this year, and it will increase next year."One of the co-founders and CEOs of the Innova Group is Max's stepfather. As far as I know, his stepfather treats Max very well. So, Ms. Kensington, are you still worried about Max's future?"Lora was stunned.She had seen Andy pick up Max before but never thought he was the CEO of the Innova Group. Whenever Andy came to pick up Max, he would park the car far away, mainly because the school was crowded during school hours. More importantly, it was for safety.Eric's words made her uncomfortable, leaving her at a loss. But she was stubborn."As you said, he is his stepfather!" she said.Eric smiled. "Ms. Kensington, I also happen to be one of the co-founders of and CIO of the Innova Group. As his uncle, w

    In terms of innate talent, Eric was unparalleled, having reached the pinnacle of martial arts. With a single punch, he sent the 'God' flying."Good!" Stealthbane shouted with excitement.The ultimate enemy had finally been defeated, bringing peace to the world. Eric sighed in relief.However, in the next moment, the 'God' stood up again. Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he revealed a bloodthirsty smile. "You have successfully enraged me!"Everyone braced for a potential massacre, but instead, the enemy turned and fled.Could Eric let him escape?"Chase him!" Stealthbane commanded.Allowing this foe to escape would spell endless trouble.A group of people pursued the enemy, who soon reappeared clad in iron armor."Not seen this before, have you?" The 'God' seemed to have recovered somewhat. "Did you think I only research viruses? Wrong! I control global resources and global wealth!"This is our newly developed Doomforge Exosuit which amplifies a person's battle prowess tenfol

    The sturdy floor lay in utter disarray.In desperation, Ruth shouted, "Eric, don't give him any more chances! Finish him off swiftly, or we'll face endless trouble!"Eric was well aware of this logic. As he fought, he said, "He's incredibly strong. Taking him down quickly isn't possible! We must fight to the death!"Eric had never feared battle. Besides, this might very well be his final fight.Their fists clashed fiercely.The 'God' also noticed that Eric was growing more formidable as the battle progressed."How do you have so much strength? Wouldn't it be better if we joined forces to control the world? We could have anything we desire!"All the world's wealth, women, and resources would be ours to enjoy. Why won't you listen to reason?" he roared.Eric's momentum didn't falter. "I don't share your grand ambitions. I just want a simple life with a job that pays 1,000 dollars a month and a warm home with my wife and kids. But you, you've disturbed my peace!"The 'God' was fu

    The 'God' grew more courageous as the battle raged on, causing Stealthbane to worry incessantly.In another high-stakes clash, Eric and his opponent both retreated. Eric sensed his opponent's growing strength, finding it rather peculiar.The 'God' clenched his fist. "I must thank you! My techniques were slightly incomplete, but I've managed to fill the gaps through this battle!"Eric marveled at his opponent's genius. To mend something incomplete was indeed a rare talent.Despite Eric training with the complete manual, he could only match the 'God' blow for blow. This person was terrifying!The opponent's confidence soared. Although Eric had trained with the full manual, the 'God' felt his innate talent far surpassed Eric's. If he could match Eric with an incomplete manual, now that he had perfected it, wouldn't he be unbeatable?"I thought you had potential and considered inviting you to share this world with me," the 'God' said, his tone turning icy. "But now, I see it's unnece

    Stealthbane even felt that Eric might not be a match for the "God."The power was overwhelming.The terrifying aura was enough to crush everything. To an ordinary person, this was a real deity—the strength possessed had already transcended human limits.Eric made his move with a burst of speed. The clash of their fists created a thunderous explosion, and the sound was so intense that Stealthbane felt his eardrums might shatter.This was a battle of the highest caliber, one that even a legend like Stealthbane could not hope to join.Seeing the two evenly matched, Stealthbane sighed in relief. At least there was a chance that the strongest combatants were neutralizing each other. The outcome was still uncertain.Eric shook his aching fist, his expression grave. The opponent's strength was as he had anticipated. If the ultimate boss of the Luminous did not possess such combat power, it would be absurd.Clearly, this "God" had also gauged Eric's strength.He extended a hand toward

    Stealthbane knew that the figure facing them must be the ultimate leader of the Luminous.Suddenly, he no longer wanted to die. If he could hold on just a little longer, it would all be over."Mr. Johnson, these people don't seem ordinary. Could that leader be the ultimate figure of the Luminous? Are we about to complete the game?" he whispered.To him, this mission to the Ark felt like a game: defeat the final boss, and victory is achieved."If I'm not mistaken, it should be. This person gives me... a sense of danger," Eric said.Upon hearing this, Stealthbane felt reassured.Just a sense? That meant the problem wasn't too grave!The leader on the opposite side turned to Eric. "I didn't expect you to make it this far. I underestimated your strength, believing my Ark was impregnable, that no enemy could breach it. But why are you so persistent? Why such determination?"He suddenly screamed in a fit of hysteria, "I have so many people! Such a grand scheme! It has all succeeded!

    Brent shouted desperately, "After you get on your knees, they'll kill you all, and we won't survive either! Kill them! Kill them all!"He understood the situation with stark clarity. Kneeling meant certain death. If they had to die anyway, fighting back would be their only chance of survival.Eric sighed. "Mr. Rogers, in the end, it was we who implicated you. But this place must be eradicated, and the Luminous must be destroyed as well! Everyone, attack!"As the battle commenced, the masked man immediately struck Brent with a punch.Eric charged in. "Die!"He knew that Brent was unlikely to survive. This punch was his way of avenging Brent.The masked man spun around, trying to block Eric's punch. But the speed of the blow was too much—the gust of wind from the punch arrived before the fist did.It was an instant kill.The masked man had no time to react before Eric's punch collided with his chest. The terrifying force shattered the mask on the man's face, revealing an unfamili

    Stealthbane was blinded by rage. He was killing anyone in sight, his fury unrelenting. They had ventured deep into enemy territory, where every encounter seemed to be with an adversary.Eric and his team from the Combat Department showed no mercy.Yet even Stealthbane's resolve was wearing thin."I can't kill them all! It feels like every master in the world is concentrated here!" he shouted in frustration.He felt the number of people he had brought was insufficient. If he had brought a few thousand more, he might have been able to overrun the place.Stealthbane was overwhelmed by the sheer horror of their situation. Fortunately, they had arrived. If anyone else had come, they would have met their end here.The numbers of the masters seemed endless."Damn it!" Stealthbane cursed angrily. "There are too many of them, and they're all exceptionally powerful. What kind of game is this?"He was tempted to retreat, but where could he go?Eric sent an enemy flying, pushing forward

    "I was opposed to coming in from the start, but as you all know, the Rogers family is extremely complex. If we hadn't entered, I might have ended up dead. At least if the virus isn't a threat, that's something!" Brent poured himself a cup of coffee and continued. "These people are ruthless! They want to kill everyone outside the Ark and establish a new order, managed by a select few. It's insane!"You don't need to tell me—I know you're here to kill them."He then pulled a small token from his pocket. "This is our Rogers family's privilege here. It allows us to move freely between different levels. With this, you can go anywhere!"Stealthbane grabbed it eagerly. "Why didn't you mention this earlier? Things will go much smoother with this!"Brent sighed. "Once you've handled everything, could you take me out with you? I really don't want to stay in this dreadful place any longer.""Sure!" Eric nodded. "We'll definitely call you when we leave. For now, we're heading out."Brent e

    Everything was ready, but they couldn't just walk in.Ruth instructed the Combat Department to conduct a three-day intensive training for everyone, focusing on coordinated combat.-After three days, the forces led by Stealthbane moved out, first dismantling the outer defenses of the Ark. This was their specialty!A large group of several hundred arrived in front of the Ark's entrance. At first glance, it resembled a mountain.Jack scratched his head and said, "Is this the gate? I don't see any door."The Holy Templar's people arrived as well. St. Pius said, "Everyone, don't rush. Wait for two minutes. Once the gate opens, we need to get in quickly. I have other plans inside, but once we're in, it's going to be a life-or-death battle! No one should show any mercy!"Stealthbane flexed his fists and replied, "Do I look like a good guy to you? Just watch me deal with them!"No sooner had he spoken than there was a tremendous roar. The ground shook, and the door of the Ark swung
