Just moments ago, during the repeated resurrection process, two points on Maverick's face on the frontal temple collapsed first.It meant that they were the points that would activate the immortality technique in humans.However, relying solely on these two points was insufficient for full activation. So, he found some more points.Those points added up to 13!Then he remembered the Geronimo Thirteen Needles, which was said in ancient times to be capable of resurrecting the dead with the 13th needle.There was no way Chad's master, Rowan, was unaware of that needle.He probably never passed it on to anyone because, as Bernard mentioned, immortality was a cursed thing.Chad removed his rubber gloves and straightened his clothes before leaving the basement for the living room.Marilyn quickly lay back down, pretending to be unconscious.Chad had no idea Marilyn was pretending.Meanwhile, Matilda was taken aback by the chaos at the hospital after leaving One Green Hills Manor.
John smiled as he watched his sister drive away from the villa and told Celine, "Of course, Joe Willow is richer than her. I've known him for over a year, and he's very generous."Celine was overjoyed to hear that, but she still asked, "Ask him if he can add another two million to it. After all, this is for ten percent ownership of the Bellenuite Group."With both arms in plaster casts, John struggled to pick up the phone but confidently replied, "It shouldn't be a problem. I'll just give him a call."However, just as John was about to dial the number, Celine interrupted him, saying, "It is already past eleven. Call him tomorrow!"John thought about it and put down the phone, saying, "Sure! He told me that Bellenuite Group is valued at only a few hundred million dollars. It's not worth much. If we convert our shares into cash, we'd only get a few million dollars."Celine listened to her son and could not help but say, "Now that you put it that way, I see why your sister is always
After ten years, Snow had finally returned!"Welcome home, my little sister," Chad whispered into Marilyn's ear. Then he got up and handed Marilyn her phone before leaving.Chad finally confirmed Marilyn was his sister, Snow.When he returned to the living room, he noticed Hogan, who had been busy all night, coming out of the basement."Chief, I've already made the specimens and sealed the basement!""Okay."Before walking outside, Chad said, "I'm leaving. Please send Marilyn home when she wakes up!"After leaving the villa, Chad stayed in the neighborhood. He went to Villa No. 26 instead.He was there to meet Fifi, the country's top superstar. She used to stay on Temple Road as well.When Chad was seven years old, Fifi left Temple Road with her parents. At the time, Fifi was 12 years old.However, Fifi would return to Temple Road every five years.Fifi had a strange illness that required treatment every five years.Five years ago, Chad visited Fifi and treated her in her h
Two hours later, Fifi's first day of treatment ended.Fifi's skin was slightly reddened after the massage, and the blush on her cheeks added to her undeniable charm.She wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Can't you be gentler? It has been five years since we started this!"Chad thought Fifi used those words on purpose. He turned his head to speak to her. "Stay in Bloomington for the next month. This treatment may take longer than expected."Fifi adjusted her clothes and said, "I don't want to stay here. Can I return to Temple Road with you?"Chad walked away and opened the door. He said, "That's up to you, but you should avoid consuming any cold dishes for now.""Got it!" Fifi replied lazily, hugging Chad from behind and pressing firmly against his back."Fifi, don't do this," Chad said softly while holding Fifi's hand.However, Fifi tightened her grip and said lazily, "This is my home. What's it to you?"Neither said anything. A few minutes later, Fifi let go of Cha
Ryan noticed him walk in and quickly stood up to greet the man.After all, he was Meran Heartweld, the geomancer of Fearsome Mountain, and his master was a famous geomancer in the country.After exchanging pleasantries, Ryan moved on to the main topic, discussing Lumigen Pharmaceuticals' intention to demolish Temple Road, as well as the turmoil at Bloomington Hospital and the pressure it put on the demolition.Then Chad, Ryan, Zach, and Meran's meeting began.After learning theMeran responded decisively, "Who's saying that we can't demolish Temple Road? Of course, we can, but we can't demolish these structures!"Everyone was surprised by the conclusion, but Chad finally understood why when he heard Meran's words.Meran said that the seven places that could not be demolished were the Hall of Herbs, Patriot Hall, Treasure Trove, Mystery Tower, House of Stars, Cloth Alley, and the Peak Institute.Those seven locations were spread across Temple Road and formed the shape of a dragon'
After being dragged back by Celine, Joe pretended to be impatient and said, "You asked me for 14 million, and I only accepted it because of John. After all, we're good friends, and this is nothing compared to that. If you want more, you're attempting to rob me."Celine was flustered. She never imagined that Bellenuite and Lumigen's collaboration would hit such a stumbling block.Even though Celine did not understand business, she understood the concept of scapegoating.So, Celine said, "It's a blessing that John knows you, but what we hold in our hands are the Bellenuite's original shares. Can't you add a bit more just as a bonus?"Joe sneered internally. He knew that not even 140 million dollars would be enough to pay for ten percent of Bellenuite's original shares.However, Matilda's parents did not understand that and were in a hurry to cash out. It was simply hilarious.However, he deliberately maintained a difficult expression as he said, "Fourteen million is already a risky
Joe nodded. He smiled as he took out a thick stack of contracts and had the three of them sign it.After that, he gave the Sach family a 1.4 million dollar check, agreeing that the remaining balance would be paid in full over three months before bidding them all farewell.They had no idea that Joe had called Jojo immediately after leaving them."Jojo, it's done! Now, we just need to seal the deal with Bellenuite's official seal."Jojo had just moved into the CFO's office. Aside from the fact that she was not the company's controlling shareholder, she owned roughly half of it at the time.Jojo was ecstatic when she heard that. So, she asked, "How much did you spend on those shares?"Joe sneered and said, "Everyone except Matilda in that family is a fool. I promised them 16 million, but they only received 1.4 million. I will only give them the rest of that money if it is absolutely necessary!"Jojo was not surprised at all. That was how business people were. They would not pay unl
Ayo's words caused Matilda to panic. She rushed toward them and said, "We can't stop the cooperation. Bellenuite can bear the full cost of relocation and demolition. I request that the demolition of Temple Road begins immediately!"Matilda was anxious. Lumigen and Bloomington's city hall could wait, but Bellenuite could not.Bellenutie had already staked its future success on its collaboration with Lumigen. The group would suffer tens of thousands of dollars in losses with each day of delay.Meanwhile, Zach and Ryan were considering their own prospects. They needed to ensure that Lumigen relented so that they could maintain their advantage.Lumigen wanted the initiative as well, and Ayo would not give in so easily, so the next step would undoubtedly be a drawn-out battle.Neither side considered Bellenuite's fate.The only thing that could be said was that Bellenuite had unintentionally entered into what should have been a battle between two nations.As a result, both sides disl
