This was the first time Eric had heard of a father asking back the money he gave to support his children.

Karen chimed in. "Before, Craig supported her with food and clothes. Now that he's struggling, she should support him. Otherwise, we'll be here every day! We'll see if she can run the store or not!"

Eric was left without words, and Andy was surprised.

"Seriously?" Andy said, "You're asking for money from Elly? I thought you were already divorced?"

"And who are you?" Craig snarled as he glared at Andy. "Whether or not we've gotten a divorce is none of your business!"

Andy scratched his nose and said, "Me? I'm Elly's boyfriend."

Eric was at a loss for words, while Craig was stunned momentarily.

In the next moment, Craig barked, "I knew it! I knew she was up for no good! How dare she accuse me of cheating on her while she's seeing a man behind my back? This is why she divorced me! Fucking slut!"

Craig cursed angrily, but Andy stepped up and punched him before he could say mor

    Andy just wanted to help Eric but did not expect Karen to turn her target to him.Eric tried to suppress his laughter but to no avail. Andy looked at Peter and the others helplessly and asked, "Are you guys not going to do anything about her?" The Huntsmans remained unperturbed. They were there for money today and would not go back empty-handed.Andy sighed. "Alright then. You made me do this."With that, he lifted his foot and kicked Karen away."How dare you kick her?!" Karen's son-in-law jumped in.Andy glanced at him and pointed to the surveillance camera across the street. "Look there, there's a camera. I don't even know her, and she's grabbing my leg. This is called self-defense, you understand?"I've never seen someone as shameless as you guys. Forget it. This won't lead to any result."The Huntsman were delighted, thinking Andy would ask Elly to give them money. However, they did not expect Andy to take out his phone and call 911. "Hello, police? There's someone caus

    After Elly finished doing Big Sis's makeup, she received a call from the police station. Craig had been officially detained. Shortly afterward, a police officer came to her door, handing her 300 dollars as compensation for the four tires. If she refused this money, Craig would face an even longer detention.Elly sighed in relief, finally able to enjoy some peaceful time. Big Sis had kept her promise and sent two of her henchmen to watch over the beauty salon's surroundings.-The weekend flew by, and Eric delivered lunch to Sylvia on Monday afternoon as usual. The key technical staff at Innova had been trained and could now handle many issues independently, reducing Eric's workload significantly."Maybe you shouldn't bring lunch anymore?" Sylvia said as she ate, looking at Eric. "I promise to have lunch and leave work on time from now on. I don't want to inconvenience you."She felt a bit embarrassed. Having the same man deliver her lunch every day during work hours made her f

    Eric's nausea grew more intense. "Hold on!"He covered his mouth and hurried to the restroom, with Jasmine following closely.Inside, Eric vomited up his lunch."What's wrong, Eric?" she asked.Jasmine stepped closer to pat his back, but he pushed her away. "Stay back! Don't come closer!"After vomiting, he rinsed his mouth and washed his face with tap water. When he turned around, he noticed Jasmine was still there!"What do you want?!" he snapped, clearly irritated by Jasmine.Jasmine had a plan when she came here. Today, she wore a short skirt with black stockings that looked alluring. She believed Eric wouldn't be able to resist. With this in mind, she extended her leg and said, "I don't believe you have zero interest in me."Claiming he had no interest at all would be untrue. The allure of black stockings was powerful. Eric did glance down briefly. Nevertheless, she couldn't match Sylvia in terms of beauty. He gazed at Jasmine seriously and explained, "Jasmine, let me

    "You're hardcore, Eric!" Andy exclaimed.He couldn't believe Eric had managed to send Jasmine away with a bank card containing only 10 dollars. He wondered how Jasmine would react when she saw the account balance.Eric asked, "Andy, can I borrow money from the company account?"He was utterly broke. The bank card with the compensation money from his hometown's land was still with his sister. Sylvia had given him a bank card when they got married, but he stubbornly refused to accept it.After starting Innova Tech, he invested 10,000 dollars as initial capital and spent the rest over the past month.Andy widened his eyes in shock. "Eric, seriously? You are driving a Mercedes-Benz S-Class and want to borrow from the company?"Eric didn't seem short on funds, no matter how he looked at it. He hadn't even put a license plate on his car yet."I'm dead serious," Eric replied. "The car was a gift from Sylvia. You know my situation. Even if we split the profits at the end of the year, I

    Sylvia had worried that Eric might develop feelings for her or just be interested in her wealth and background. However, after spending over two months together, she realized she had grown used to having Eric around.She didn't dare think about how upset Eric would be when he discovered she had been deceiving him all along. The more one cared about something, the more one feared losing it. She had made an effort to discover Eric's good qualities, and although she hadn't found many, she noticed his genuineness. Just as Sylvia was lost in her thoughts, Eric emerged from the kitchen, carrying dishes."Hello? Knock, knock. Wakey, wakey. It's time to eat," Eric called out.Sylvia sat across from Eric, her lips tightly pressed together. When Eric glanced her way, she said, "Eric, I have a question for you.""Of course, fire away," Eric replied."Well," Sylvia hesitated, "imagine, hypothetically speaking, if I were hiding something from you, how would you react?"She was curious

    Andy seemed to sense it, but he chose to ignore the feeling.Today, Big Sis brought some friends along to help with the business.When Eric saw Sylvia assisting Elly, he pulled Andy to the side with an exasperated expression. "What's going on with you? I treat you like a brother, and now you're pursuing my sister?"Andy grinned playfully. "Well, brothers-in-law are like brothers, too."Eric rolled his eyes and said, "Given my sister's situation, you should save your efforts. You two just aren't a suitable match!"Andy was single, and his sister had two sons. They just weren't compatible.Andy waved it off. "No worries. Relationships take time to develop."Eric was baffled. He couldn't grasp what Andy saw in his sister.Andy was younger than Eric and now his business partner. He didn't have to worry about finding a wife.Changing the topic, Andy asked, "Let's talk about something else. Have you heard back from the equipment manufacturers regarding your suggestions?"Eric shook

    Elly pursed her lips, feeling that it was unjust for Blake. Richard's family was wealthy, so affording the treatment shouldn't have been an issue.-Later that afternoon, Richard and his family arrived, except for Eric and Elly's paternal grandmother, Alyssa Irwin.Richard patted his stomach, "Blake, none of us have had lunch yet."Blake replied, "I've asked Elly to prepare extra lunch dishes. We can warm them up upstairs."Their expressions soured upon learning it was leftovers."Blake, we traveled all the way to the city," Richard exclaimed. "You can't expect us to eat leftovers! At the very least, take us out for a proper meal!"The others nodded in agreement.Blake's frowed. "Back in our hometown, we managed well with simple meals like cabbage and chicken soup. Your lives have improved recently, and you're already complaining? If you're hungry, eat. If not, don't."It was already 1:00 p.m., and they hadn't eaten yet?Blake understood their intentions, but he had no patien

    Sylvia sneered. "Isn't it convenient timing?"Eric frowned, finding it strange, too. But his concern for his grandmother made him push aside his suspicion.Sylvia continued. "Remember last time when Mayor Jenkins asked us to return? I overheard your uncle asking him to return to him 20,000 dollars, which happens to match our donation. Then there's the missing certificate and the over 7,000 dollars he pocketed. It's raising questions about Grandma's illness. "The motive seems simple. They want the land compensation money. My hunch is they'll keep coming back, maybe even demand another 10,000 dollars in a few days, until they've emptied the pot."Eric frowned. Sylvia's argument had merit. Given what had happened in their hometown, Jared and Richard seemed capable of such actions.He suggested, "Let's visit the hospital later. We can ask the doctor whether it's true or not."Sylvia smiled and shook her head, "They've even prepared a fake medical diagnosis. Asking the doctor would b

    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
