2025-01-25 18:01:42Garrett acted differently. Coming from a military background and under forty years old, he had been originally planned by his family to come to LA for experience.
He hadn’t expected to run into trouble in this small town, but he wasn’t panicked. In fact, he saw this as an opportunity to understand the inner workings of LA. That’s why he hadn’t said a word from beginning to end.
He remained calm because he had confidence in his identity.
What surprised him even more was that the young girl standing next to him seemed completely unfazed by the whole situation, as if nothing that happened could affect her.
"Fine, I’ll go with you."
Amelia was still smiling, her face extremely beautiful with a hint of wickedness.
"Take her too."
She raised her chin, looking toward the middle-aged woman who was trying to sneak away...
The people around looked at each other, thinking, "Didn’t they say they wouldn&r

"Yes, I’ve got it all down, Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know, I know. You’re busy, you’re busy!" Mary hung up the phone with a smile, eager to head over to the Milton family.Upon hearing the news, Jackson was stunned. "Her low-status relatives actually dared to attack the police?""Indeed, they’re acting so arrogantly," Mary laughed, finding it absurd. "What a lack of legal knowledge."Now, Mary didn’t have to worry about a thing. She’d already arranged everything, and that girl might even end up facing a prison sentence.Originally, she just wanted to teach her a lesson, but now it seemed more appropriate to let her face the full force of the law.Jackson pondered for a moment, then said, "Tell Z to take it easy. It's too tight right now. Just leave her a criminal record and make sure she loses her live stream account.""Let’s see how that little brat behaves," Mary sipped her tea, looking compl

"According to judicial regulations, using violence to coerce a confession carries a sentence of up to three years of imprisonment or detention."The interrogator suddenly turned to look at her!Amelia spoke nonchalantly, "I advise you not to act impulsively."The interrogator looked somewhat surprised. "You know the law?""In normal circumstances, recording a confession requires two law enforcement officers—one to record and one to question," Amelia looked at him, "But right now it’s just you. Have you thought about who will take the fall if something goes wrong?"Her voice was laced with a certain charm, making her words exceptionally persuasive."Of course, it will be someone like you, a small-time officer with no background, and the leaders will throw you under the bus."Hearing this, the interrogator hesitated.He had already heard about this case before he came in. Two "auxiliary police" had made the arrest, an

At the same time...In the city office hall, countless people were waiting.This wasn’t just any secretary, and especially since his surname was Rodriguez!Anyone who understood the ropes would know exactly what that meant!People from various departments had gathered, all waiting for the new leader to arrive and hold a meeting.On this day, even the streets were exceptionally clean.People waited and waited, straining their necks in anticipation, but no car appeared.Vice Mayor Jones, however, showed no signs of impatience. He had already changed the tea in his thermos several times.Finally! A car appeared in the distance!But it was moving very fast, not quite the style of Garrett, who was supposed to be here to assume office.As Vice Mayor Jones wondered about this, the driver of the red flag car suddenly opened the door and anxiously scanned the crowd. “Excuse me, who is Vice Mayor Jones?”

The Police Station really could pull off something like this.Of course, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble with big cases.But for smaller matters like Amelia’s, they could stretch things to make more money or settle them quietly.Sure enough, the interrogator who had been in charge earlier was gone.A more experienced officer was brought in, but he paid no attention to the two people with him. Instead, he addressed Amelia directly: “As a streamer, you must follow the law. Have you ever seen a well-known doctor treating patients online? In LA , the Remington family is known for their top-tier medical skills, but they don’t treat life and death as casually as you do!”Amelia raised her eyes, her gaze sharp and cold. “Top-tier hospitals, like military hospitals, have been offering online consultations for years. Specialists from all departments sit in to ensure that citizens across the country don’t have to

Garrett’s voice was cold: “Are you asking us to bribe you?”He knew LA was chaotic, but he never imagined that these people would dare to be so brazen!What had Vice Mayor Jones told him on the phone yesterday?He had claimed that LA had already solved these problems!Garrett clenched his fists. As far as he was concerned, everything here needed to be investigated!The experienced officer casually leaned back. “Accusing law enforcement of wrongdoing right off the bat? I don’t think we need to continue this interrogation!”With that, he put down his pen and stared at the three people.These three were difficult to handle. Even if they were interrogated together, there would be no result by nightfall.The officer’s gaze shifted, landing on Amelia. That was it.He didn’t believe that a young girl like her could withstand their methods of torture and forced confessions!

In the circle, Mia had always maintained an image of a humble, orphaned girl.This was to emphasize her talent.Even when Jackson came looking for her, she claimed he was just a distant relative.Jackson had relied on this daughter to become a small contractor.Everyone’s impression of her stemmed from her perceived innocence and politeness, and she was seen as somewhat pitiful.As a young person new to the capital, she was in need of help, and some older people just wanted to assist her.However, no one expected that she was actually backed by the Crawford family!Now, it was clear that the Crawford family wanted to distance themselves from the Adler family ’s troubles and had cast her aside.Scholars exchanged glances, silently distancing themselves from her.Evelyn was still conducting investigations in LA . Adler had been very influential in the capital’s circles, but now he wasn’t even allowe

“You can’t arrest him, no matter what!” Even the usually calm Vice Mayor Jones was riled up, his temper flaring.Michael was quite unique in this situation. He looked at Director Johnson and said, "Director Johnson, you know how diligent I usually am."At this moment, Caleb didn't want to hear any more of it. "Enough, Michael! Take him away!"He had originally planned to tidy up things before the new Secretary-General arrived, trying to cover up as much as he could and making sure everything was in order. He’d even given some tips here and there.As long as the water was deep enough, Garrett wouldn’t be able to find anything, and the new official wouldn't be able to make a big show.But now! This was practically giving the other side a reason to conduct a thorough investigation!He couldn’t let Michael talk any longer!The interrogators had already begun their actions. But just then, standing in the

Now, the middle-aged woman has already collapsed.When she took the money, she didn't say anything about Mr. Jones, or about any secretaries.She's uneducated and doesn't understand some of these terms.But she's not stupid!Anyone who can make Director Michael kowtow and beg to kneel down must be a big shot!How dare she speak up? She just wanted to leave while the gods were fighting.But unfortunately, this girl stood in a position that blocked her way, whether intentionally or unintentionally!The middle-aged woman looked at Amelia with reluctance!Amelia's words carried a hint of laughter: "The plaintiff is here, and I, the defendant, am also here. Mr. Johnson, Vice Mayor Jones, and Garrett to join in the trial together."Together?!Caleb feared this situation the most!If they really tried it together, nothing would be hidden anymore!Garrett glanced at him, with a natural aura of authority: "What does Vice Mayor Jones think?"He wanted to know how deep the waters of LA really were.Whether

Elijah gestured: He’s not bad!“Being praised by you is never a good thing,” Amelia said lazily.Now that the person had been saved, she had no reason to linger. She glanced at Scarface. “Second Uncle, shall we go for a stroll outside?”“Sure, let’s go.”As they were leaving, Scarface didn’t forget to warn Master Dawnshade. “Anything goes when making money in the vintage shop, but if you dare to harm people, be prepared to face the law.”Master Dawnshade chuckled lightly. “Mr. Lott, I only guide those who are fated. It seems that from now on, fate no longer binds us.”“Master Dawnshade.” Amelia toyed with a purple jade pendant and suddenly looked up. “You’re talking about fate with my second uncle? Then let me ask you, do you follow Daoism or Buddhism?”“Buddhism? That doesn’t seem right. After all, you are deeply entangled in worldly affairs, far from the purity of Buddhist practice.”“Then is it Daoism? But Daoist teachings focus on self-cultivation, not guiding others. There’s no n

Master Dawnshade looked at Scarface. “Hey, you’re a veteran in the antique trade. Divination, character interpretation, and object selection all rely on trust. If you don’t believe, then please, feel free to go ahead.”Scarface had already seen through Master Dawnshade. He chuckled carelessly. “Don’t try to pressure me with industry rules. Divination is about mutual consent. Especially in the vintage shop—if both the buyer and seller agree, no one else has a say. Mr. Fisher hasn’t even complained about the price yet, Master Dawnshade, why are you in such a hurry?”“If this deal goes through for my niece, I’ll give you a ten percent cut. After all, the transaction is happening in your place.”That was reasonable.That’s how things worked in the vintage shop.Of course, Rowan was happy to proceed. He picked up a brush and casually wrote a character.The young attendant was fuming but had no choice.Master Dawnshade, however, glanced at the character and surprisingly agreed to let Amelia

Spencer’s expression turned cold. "You’re mistaken. Not all people in New York know each other.""Bro!" Rowan nudged him. "You just focus on getting your fortune read. Don't get involved in my business."Spencer’s voice was icy. "So, you’re just going to make friends with some commoner?"Scarface, though wary of escalating the conflict, knew exactly where he stood. "By that logic, I, Scarface, shouldn't be here either, huh? Since the Fisher family is so high and mighty."The current position of the Fisher family patriarch meant that they had to avoid drawing too much attention.Spencer understood this. Hearing Scarface's words, he clenched his fist in frustration but softened his tone. "Grandpa Oak, you misunderstand. We’re all the same. I never saw you as an outsider."That was a concession.Scarface let it go at that. "Then I’ll take that as a misunderstanding. You two young masters carry on. I’ll take my niece to look around.""Wait." Amelia’s gaze landed on Rowan’s waist, and she

"He is indeed very good-looking," Amelia said casually, about to leave.On the other side, Spencer, who was about to have his fortune told through calligraphy, glanced over and slightly narrowed his eyes. "Miss, you should be more polite when you speak. This is New York."Amelia chuckled. "Is this gentleman trying to teach me how to behave?"Spencer looked at her. She was undeniably beautiful, but what kind of attitude was this?Did Scarface never teach her the unspoken rules of the New York elite?"Scarface, handle this as you see fit," Spencer said indifferently. He couldn't be bothered with this any further. In his eyes, she was just an outsider.His younger brother had only looked at her a few times, yet she was putting on airs.Hah, the disdain on Spencer's face was obvious.Rowan, on the other hand, realized he had gone too far. "Ah, my bad, my bad, Miss. I was just joking. I didn't expect you and your fiancé to be so close. You're a pure love warrior, huh?"Amelia could tell th

Scarface was floored!She had done it on purpose—deliberately leading the conversation toward academics to expose that Master Dawnshade couldn’t predict a thing!He had spent no less than a million at Master Dawnshade’s place over the past year.How did it come to this?!Scarface forced himself to stay calm.Master Dawnshade was still looking at him. "Sir Jonathan?"Sir Jonathan, my ass! Scarface’s eyes widened fiercely. "Not buying!"The elder's expression stiffened—he clearly hadn’t expected this outcome.Just then, laughter sounded behind Scarface."Grandpa Oak, you’re really turning your back now? Not even giving Master Dawnshade some face?"The group strolled in, dressed in the latest fashion, all wearing high-end brands.Each had a distinct style—some with dyed hair, others with striking good looks—but they all had one thing in common: their privileged backgrounds.Elijah found this quite intriguing—he was always sharp when it came to money.He glanced at Amelia, as if asking,

Curse Others, Curse Yourself?!Scarface gasped sharply.Better not stay in the capital?!Could Master Dawnshade have foreseen that the person he brought was actually the seventh young lady the Cromwell family just reclaimed?Scarface opened his mouth, about to speak, but Amelia beat him to it:"Master, may I ask if there is a way to resolve this?""It is very difficult to resolve." The elderly man looked compassionate. "Some suffering is beyond your control. You lacked love since childhood, rarely understood by others, leading to resentment."Amelia spun the teacup in her fingers, her smile faint. "Resentment?""Yes," the old man looked at her. "Your suffering stems from resentment—you are unaware of it yet unable to break free. You wonder why others have what you lack."Elijah, listening at the side, was growing impatient, his tiger-like eyes narrowing dangerously.Yet Amelia merely sighed lazily, her tone indifferent:"Someone read my fortune before. He told me that my blessings are

Scarface initially wanted to dismiss her as someone from a "small place" with limited knowledge.But seeing her composed and confident demeanor, he couldn’t help but second-guess himself.Regardless of what others thought, if Mr.Cromwell acknowledged her, then she was legitimate—end of story.Scarface reassured himself with this thought.Amelia remained as poised as ever, her refined presence standing out, but she showed no interest in discussing Mr. Cromwell."We’re here." Scarface lifted his heels slightly to get a better look. "As expected, there's a queue."The crowd was sizable. The line of appointments stretched from inside the store all the way out onto the street.The storefront had a traditional aesthetic, filled with an array of antique treasures.A man walked out holding a slip of paper, beaming with joy. "The master said that if I follow this prescription, I’m guaranteed to have a son!""The master even knew you were trying for a child?!" someone nearby exclaimed in amazem

"Miss Amelia, first time here?"The man was talkative, speaking in a pure New York accent."You can call me Scarface."As soon as he finished speaking, someone from a nearby stall called out, "Sir Jonathan, you're here! I’ve got some good stuff today!""I’ll take a look later." Scarface nodded, exuding an air of authority."Alright! I’ll keep it reserved for you!"Amelia’s smile was subtle. "Sir Jonathan?"Scarface fanned himself leisurely. "It’s just a name folks in the trade gave me out of respect. You know, I go by Scarface."Then, he turned back to business. "Mr. Cromwell mentioned that Miss Amelia is looking for some mountain stones and special artifacts? Any specific requirements for quality?""Not really." Amelia replied while shifting her gaze to Elijah.Elijah seemed right at home in the vintage shop, his sharp eyes scanning the stalls before slightly pursing his lips.Amelia brought him here as her personal scanner. His eyes could help her locate valuable items with remarkab

Amelia had a lot on her mind—things she needed to sort through.She wanted to clarify everything before telling him.But Carl was sharp and always caught onto the key points. “You think I’ll be in danger on the highway?”“Yes.” Amelia met his gaze directly.Carl looked into her eyes and laughed softly. “I’ll listen to everything you say.”That made Amelia’s expression shift slightly. “Then be careful of the people around you.”“Understood.” Carl tucked her long hair behind her ear. “Do you need my help with the Cromwell family? After all, I’ve lived in New York longer than you and know more than you do.”Amelia didn’t hesitate. “I do need you to set up a meeting with a designer.”“Who?” Carl asked.Amelia handed him a business card. “A foreign designer—Kogawa Takeda.”Carl’s expression darkened. “Another Kogawa family member?”“You know him? That makes things easier.” Amelia spoke casually. “He designed the Cromwell family’s old residence. I think he did a good job, so I want to ask a
