Chad also remembered that there was an old man beside Travis who was a martial arts expert. Travis called him Uncle Bernard."Is that him?"Chad's taxi drove out of Bloomington's bustling urban area and arrived at his destination an hour later.Even though they had left the noisy city, the manor remained lively after dark.Those who lived in the area were extremely wealthy. Few people even knew they lived there.The true nature of the wealthy was to be extravagant only when required. Otherwise, they were no different from regular people.Furthermore, just entering the manor required a special password. Otherwise, even the president could be unable to enter.Chad stepped off at the entrance and tapped the NFC before the gate opened.He entered the area, and a shared car parked along the road flashed at him.Chad got into the car and stated which manor he wanted to visit. The car then took the predetermined route.They were at One Green Hills Manor, which housed the world's mos
"Security! Over here! Someone has trespassed the manor. Didn't you realize that?"Two security guards heard her and went to her on the e-bikes they used for patrolling.The guards knew almost every owner, but they were unfamiliar with Chad.One of the guards said sternly, "Sir, please show us your access card!"Chad shook his phone. "I use the NFC in my phone to unlock the door."The middle-aged security guard saw Chad's phone and scoffed."Sir, this is One Green Hills Manor. Not the trashy villas outside. The owners here aren't allowed to add the access card to the NFC on mobile phones."Chad was startled. Back then, when someone gifted him with Villa No. 3, he was also given a phone.That person claimed the phone was the access card. Furthermore, the phone was in good working order, and Chad had not changed it since then.Matilda was furious when she saw Chad being exposed."Let's see what else you have to say. Aren't you going to admit that you followed me here?"Chad fel
Chad was the cause of Travis and Marilyn's breakup. Travis was concerned that he could not find an opportunity to take revenge.When Travis saw Marilyn standing next to Chad, he decided to exact revenge for all their feuds.After all, that was Travis' territory. He was the local bully.Chad looked at Marilyn, surprised. "Didn't you break up with Travis already?"Marilyn glared at Yara. "It was Yara who lured me here. She wanted to make me get back together with Travis!"Yara teased her. "Well, you're the perfect match for my brother—"Before Yara completed her sentence, Chad interrupted her. "I don't think they suit each other!"Yara was startled. Feeling offended, she frowned at Marilyn.Chad patted Marilyn on her head and said affectionately, "From now on, you'll follow me. I'll take you home later.""Okay!" Marilyn answered obediently. Chad patted her on the head, and she felt loved. She even thought it seemed familiar.Chad unabashedly took Marilyn's hand and began conver
Mr. Davidson was no ordinary man. Everyone who could interact with Travis had a similar background.His name was Astro Davidson. He was born into a militant family—the Davidsons. The Davidson family was said to be responsible for half of the Hacniane Trio Rangers.Astro was there with his brother, Magnum Davidson, but Magnum had already gone somewhere with Miles.When Astro saw Suri, he constantly coaxed her into drinking, hoping to get her drunk and take advantage of her.Then, when he saw Suri being intimate with Chad, he wanted to cause trouble for Chad."You piece of trash! Let go of Suri! She's mine!"Astro had gotten drunk and was slurring his words.Suri got excited when she heard what Astro had said. She drew Yara away and curled into Chad's arms."I love men who live off women, especially Dr. Jennings. I want to marry him! I don't like men like you, Mr. Davidson. You're too skinny!"Everyone exclaimed. Yara was frozen, too.However, the show did not stop there!"Sur
The villa was completely silent. Everyone stood as still as a statue, staring at Chad.Ivy was from the Hawthorne family in Shotham.Suri was the owner of Glory Investment Group.Fifi was an A-list celebrity.Finally, Yara was a powerful figure in Harmony Entertainment Media, second only to Miles.Chad's ex-wife was not only a stunning woman, but she also founded Bellenuite Group, which had a market value of hundreds of millions of dollars.Marrying one of those ladies would be a blessing for any wealthy man.However, four ladies fought over Chad after his divorce from Matilda.Astro was shocked and frustrated.Many attractive women attended Travis' birthday banquet, but they appeared ordinary, and Astro was unimpressed.No one dared to speak while Ivy, Suri, and Fifi waited for Chad to make a decision.Yara's eyes welled with tears as she quietly waited for Chad."I…"Everyone looked at Chad as he spoke, curious about his decision."I don't wanna get married now!"Chad
Ivy would not leave Chad alone. She tried to convince Chad to marry her."Chad, tell me! When are you going to marry me?"However, Chad blew a fuse. "Shut up!"Ivy froze in shock. She did not understand why Chad was so angry.Her eyes welled up, and she said defeatedly, "Chad, I will not do that again. I—""I said, shut up! Do you hear me?"Chad was genuinely frantic. He did not notice how Marilyn vanished.Or, rather, he wondered who could have kidnapped Marilyn without his knowledge!Bill noticed Chad acting out of character and quickly pulled Ivy to his side.Ivy cried and threw herself into Bill's arms. "Bill, what happened to Chad?"Bill said sternly, "I think something happened to Marilyn. Let's not cause more trouble, okay?"Ivy stopped crying when she realized what had made Chad so angry.Marilyn looked too much like Snow, who meant a lot to Chad.For that reason, Ivy had never seen Marilyn as a romantic rival.Chad stared at Marilyn's phone as a shiver ran down h
Maverick Timber was a descendant of the Floodgates.The Floodgates had a significant impact outside of the country. They held many territories around the world.When civilians in their area of territory required protection, they would first turn to them.Even when Harmony Entertainment Media sought to enter the international market, they required assistance from the Floodgates.Attending Travis' birthday banquet was only the second reason Maverick visited the country. His primary goal was to collect protection money from Miles!Maverick looked at Chad with a smirk and said to Travis, "I like the girl called Marilyn. I'll give you a discount of three million dollars!"Travis laughed. "Thank you, Mr. Timber. You must enjoy yourself tonight!"Maverick sniggered. "Where's the fun if it's only me? Mr. Norman, Mr. Davidson, please join me when I've found a place. Let's go all out! Even if she dies, I will be sure to clean up the mess!"Travis turned toward Chad. Then, he laughed scor
Hogan slapped him with the back of his hand when Maverick approached the yard.It was a loud slap. Maverick lost his balance and nearly fell.The people in the villa were shocked.The residents knew that One Green Hill Manor was the most expensive villa neighborhood. They did not expect its property manager to be so aggressive.After hitting Maverick, he looked at the shared car that drove over.He said, "Get in! Someone wants to meet you!"Maverick had no choice but to do as Hogan said.At the same time, Travis, who was in the villa's living room, was extremely frustrated."I've never seen any property like this," Astro said sarcastically, seemingly addressing Maverick and Travis. "That's a first. This is no different from underground gangs.If I were a property owner here, I would definitely take action to get the property manager out of here!"During all of that, no one noticed when Chad had left.Only Ivy saw Chad leave. She wanted to follow him but was stopped by the prop
