"Go ahead and call the cops! Let's see if they show up.""I recall there's a police station less than a mile away. If they cared, why aren't they here yet?"The oil thieves sounded very arrogant.The security guard panicked when he heard this. When these oil thieves came the last time, he was beaten up badly for trying to stop them. Now that they came again, he did not act rashly, but instead called the cops first.Twenty minutes had passed since he called the cops. He figured that the police ought to be arriving anytime soon, hence why he stepped forward to stop them.The security guard only realized this after they reminded him.They were right—the police station was very close. Logically speaking, the police should have arrived long ago."I don't mind telling you this. We've bribed all the police officers in this area. Even if you call the cops, nobody will care.""Why should you care if the police don't? What is it that you want? This oilfield doesn't belong to your family.
The men who hopped off the trucks didn’t say a word. They cranked their barrels, and pulled their triggers. These were clearly heartless killers who wouldn’t even blink when they killed.The sound of shotguns could be heard. A rain of bullets was fired at Frederick.He sneered. In the next moment, the whole world seemed to stand still.The security guard closed his eyes, thinking he was about to die. However, he did not feel any pain. When he opened his eyes, his jaw dropped at the sight before him.The bullets stopped midair.Meanwhile, the killers and the oil thieves were equally dumbfounded, so much so that they could not make a sound. It was as if somebody was strangling their necks."Go!" Frederick shouted.The bullets returned to where they came from.Pfft, pfft, pfft!A series of muffled sounds and miserable screams could be heard. The killers and oil thieves were all killed by the bullets.The security guard was terrified, and collapsed on the ground.Frederick was t
“Don't worry. I'm here. No one can destroy this oilfield," Frederick said with a nod.The security guard looked up at Frederick in disbelief. "Who exactly are you?" "I told you. I'm the owner of this oilfield." Frederick laughed."But isn't this oilfield owned by the Whalens?"Clearly, the security guard didn’t take Frederick seriously when he said this oilfield belonged to him. Like everyone else, he thought Frederick was making it up."The Whalens lost the oilfield to me. Otherwise, why would their management team withdraw completely?" Frederick explained.The security guard's jaw dropped. This was the largest oilfield ever discovered in Drakonia. It was literally priceless.What kind of bet did they make to lose such a big oilfield?"It doesn't matter. You should hurry up and run. Even if you're the owner of this oilfield, Lone Wolf is fully capable of preventing the site from opening. Although the oil thieves are blatantly stealing from us, we'd only try to make them leave
Lone Wolf froze for a moment before frowning intensely and turning to look at his subordinates behind him.“I'm sure you didn't instruct them to steal oil. You might not even know about it. However, the Lone Wolf organization has grown too big. Once something goes beyond your control, it may result in a huge disaster," Frederick explained.Back when he helped Rocky to reclaim the underground forces, he borrowed manpower from Lone Wolf. There were hundreds of those fierce fighters who could easily overpower the major underground forces in Mirage City."I kicked you because of your dereliction of duty. Now, leave with your men and clean up the mess!" Frederick shouted.Lone Wolf took a deep breath and stood up. “Boss, I understand!”He looked like he could kill someone.There were a few people in the crowd whose foreheads were covered in sweat. Their faces turned pale."Are you relieved now? Lone Wolf won't return to cause trouble again."Frederick looked at the downtrodden secur
"I still don't know your name."Frederick reached out to the security guard, and smiled."It’s Danial Zeller."Danial grabbed Frederick's hand tightly. Frederick pulled him off the ground."In that case, I'll leave the oilfield in your hands. Three generations of your family have dedicated your lives to this industry. I'm sure you know many people share the same ambitions. I believe you'll be able to form a complete team to continue developing the oilfield," Frederick said.Danial felt immense pressure. At the same time, he also felt energized."I'll do my best!" Danial nodded with a serious look on his face.The next day, Frederick signed a contract with Danial and completely entrusted the oilfield to him.At night, Frederick arrived at Celia's house.This was the first time he went to her house.Frederick's eyes snapped wide open as soon as the door was opened. Inside, Celia had on a flight attendant's uniform. She bowed deeply to him, revealing her cleavage."Hello, sir.
Frederick stopped walking, and looked at them."You can ask your master if I'm still a loser or not."He pointed at Garry."He already secured the position as the deputy general manager of Soar Group, but he lost the job which would have given him an annual salary of several millions just because I said so," Frederick said calmly.Winnie frowned a little when she heard the word 'master'. As for Andy and Ashton, they were stunned for a moment—then, they burst into laughter.Frederick was truly interesting. He actually said something like that! Who did he think he was? Did he make Garry lose his job because of something he said? Was he even capable of that?However, after laughing for a while, the two sensed something was amiss.Garry's expression had turned dark.They were both shocked. Was Frederick telling the truth?Garry took a deep breath, and forced a smile upon his face."That's right. He's telling the truth. Our classmate is doing very well now. You probably don't kn
“The manager here knows my dad. I'll call him to get us the best room. Mr. Lester, are you fine with that?" Garry said, shooting a provocative at Frederick.By then, Frederick already guessed what Garry was up to. However, he didn’t care."Suit yourself," he said with a blank expression.Garry smirked, and dialed the manager's number. Soon, Empire Club's manager came to greet them."Garry, have you returned to Mirage? I met with your dad a while ago. He talked about you," Empire Club's manager said, smiling when he saw Garry."Yeah. I came to support your business as soon as I returned, Mr. Hewitt." Garry chuckled."Just come right in next time. I'll arrange something for you!" The manager patted Garry on his shoulder. He owned shares in Empire Club."Mr. Hewitt, would you be able to get us the best room here?" Garry asked.The manager was stunned when he heard this. "Sure, we still have the Imperial Room, but—"Garry cut him off before he could finish his sentence. "Mr. Hewit
Where did this madman come from?He immediately offered 30 million!Sean thought he was a bad enough black sheep in the family, but someone else was worse than him."Psycho! You can have this room!" Sean cursed, and walked away."Since you made the bid, make sure you can afford to pay 30 million. Otherwise, it won't just be a disgrace to you. If you can't pay up, Empire Club won't let you off the hook!" Garry said. "Is 30 million a lot? Besides, why were you so quiet when the bid reached 10 million? If you don't have what it takes, don't act like such a big shot! Shut the hell up, pauper!" Frederick said. He smirked, and retrieved his debit card. He swiped it, and entered his passcode."Transaction of 30 million is complete!" announced the point-of-sale device.For a while, the people in the room were silent. Did Frederick really just spend 30 million like it was nothing?"Mr. Lester, you sure act differently now that you're with a rich roman," Ashton said enviously."Mr. H
