Edward adjusted his tie and knocked on the office door.

Evelyn was dealing with some work. When she heard the knock on the door, she said softly, “Come in.”

When Edward entered the room, Evelyn looked up to glance at him and asked in slight surprise, “You are…?”

“How do you do, Ms. Benson? I’m Edward Wright, the sales manager of La Fleur Cosmetics. I’m representing my company today to sign the contract with you,” Edward said politely.

“I see.”

Evelyn realized what he was here for, and her attitude got much friendlier. “Have a seat, Mr. Wright.”

She got up and made a cup of expensive red tea for Edward.

Edward took a sip. The tea left a fragrance in his mouth, and he became even more arrogant.

Chase, oh, Chase. Edward had to thank him for this.

If it were not for Chase, Edward would never have gotten to taste such good tea or get the opportunity to see Evelyn Benson—one of South River City’s most beautiful women—up close.

Hahaha!

Evelyn soon brought out the contract she had p

    Just like that, Edward came out of Benson Group while in a daze.Riley, who was waiting at the door, ran over to him. “Edward, how was it? Did you sign the contract?”“Of course, he did! There’s nothing Edward can’t do!” Raymond and Anna began to fawn over him.An unpleasant expression appeared on Edward’s face as he said, “Um, I didn’t…”Huh?They were immediately stunned, and they felt as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water over them.Riley’s expression changed as she asked, “What happened?”“The CEO of Benson Group said she'll only sign with Chase. If it's not him, she won’t cooperate with us,” Edward said, too heartbroken for tears.“What?”The others gasped.Benson Group only wanted Chase?How was that possible?Raymond stammered, “E-Edward, w-what should we do? You’ve already fired Chase…”“We’ll talk about this later,” Edward said with a sigh. When he recalled that he would have to face Owen and the others soon, he felt his scalp tingling.Inside the o

    Edward did not know where to vent his anger, so he slapped Anna across the face.“Fuck! Didn’t you hear what Mr. Hudson said? We have to get Chase back or we’re all doomed!”When he thought of how arrogant he was when he fired Chase and how he had to humbly get him back, he felt utterly horrible.Huffing, he said, “Riley, you’re the only one with Chase’s number. Call him and ask him to come back now.”“Yeah, Riley. He likes you, right? As long as you ask him, he'll definitely come crawling back,” Raymond chimed in.Even though Riley was unwilling, she had no choice but to call Chase.“Sorry, the number you’ve dialed is turned off…” When Riley heard the automated voice message, her expression changed. “He turned off his phone.”“Let me try.” Edward asked for Chase’s number and called him.The call went through this time.Immediately, Edward put a smile on his face and said, “Hello, Chase. This is Edward…”Before he could finish, the person on the other end hung up.“That bast

    Everyone in the villa fell silent after hearing that voice.Did they hear him correctly?Did someone say he wanted to give Arthur an urn and funeral flowers on his birthday?Also, did that person tell Arthur to go to hell?Everyone, including Arthur and his family, turned around to look out of the villa with disbelief written across their faces.Then, they saw a man with a bronze mask swaggering into the villa.That man was Chase.In his hands were a black urn and a bouquet of lilies.Even though he was wearing a mask, the baleful look in his eyes was enough to make everyone in the room shudder.At that moment, Arthur narrowed his eyes, and his face displayed an intense murderous intent.It was that man from Green Hills Orphanage!He was finally here!Soon enough, the guests snapped back to reality and yelled at Chase, “Who are you? Get out!”Chase did not say anything. Instead, he walked slowly toward Arthur.“Stop right there! Or else, we'll kill you!” The Quaid seniors

    Mandy looked curiously at the mask on Chase’s face. Then, acting as though she had been given an adrenaline shot, she started murmuring, “Masked man, you're making me want to arrest you more and more.“Then, I want to remove your mask and see what you look like!”When the man next to her heard this, his face twitched.Arrest him?How? With her beautiful long legs?An urgent yet powerful applause broke the silence. “Good. Very good!”Arthur stood up.As he clapped, he said, “You’re indeed the person we’ve spent the last 12 years looking for.“We've spent so much money to train these bodyguards in secret, and each of them can fight ten people by themselves with no problem. Yet, they’re nothing before you.“I have to admit that you’ve surprised me, you fugitive.”As Arthur spoke, he smiled at Chase as if nothing was wrong with the situation.Chase smirked, baring his teeth at Arthur. “Old Dog Arthur, they say that the good die young while the bad live long to bring trouble to e

    In the secret basement of Quaid Villa, Quinn slowly regained consciousness.After realizing that both her hands and feet were bound, she subconsciously wanted to scream. However, there was tape over her mouth, so she could not make any noises.‘I've been kidnapped!’ This thought flashed across Quinn’s head.The Quaids must have kidnapped her.Not only that, it was highly probable that they were the ones who arranged for the car crash. What did they want?She felt apprehensive and started struggling, but it was in vain.As she was about to fall into despair, she heard sounds behind her.Turning her head, she saw a woman with messy hair and a dirty face. She was wearing a hospital gown as she held a dirty doll. She was murmuring to herself in a corner. At the same time, she would drool from the corner of her mouth.“Hehe, Rocky, you have to be good. Miss Julia will take you to the doctor. We’re not afraid of getting shots, right?“Rocky, are you hungry? I’ll give you a piece o

    “What else can this be? It’s something that'll make her sleep.”The shirtless man replied subconsciously before abruptly turning around to look at Quinn. “Y-You’re awake!”He then quickly yelled outside the door, “Boss, tell Mr. Ferb that the woman is awake!”Not long after, a burly man pushed a young man into the room.The young man was in a wheelchair as all four of his limbs were in casts.As expected, it was Ferb.Quinn looked at him coldly. “Ferb, how dare your family kidnap me!”At this moment, Ferb was not as scholarly as before. He rebuked with a malicious look on his face, “You bitch, this is what you get after crossing me for that Collins kid.“Don’t worry, you'll be my woman after Grandpa’s party. I'll enjoy you slowly. I’d like to see if you can remain so cold and arrogant then! Right, I'll also kill that Collins kid before you.”“You’re insane!”Quinn turned pale with fright.“Yes, I am insane. I’ve become insane ever since that kid crippled all four of my limbs

    At this moment, everyone was shivering from fright. When they looked at Chase again, they felt as if they were looking at a dead man.The Quaids had laid out so many tricks just for one person.Surely, Chase was doomed.However, the man in question only sighed softly.“You beast, why are you sighing? Are you scared?”Horton, who was standing in the distance, smirked as he said, “If you kneel and cut off both of your arms, perhaps we can give you a quick death.”“That’s not enough. I learned a new way to torture people overseas. We can slowly cut away the flesh from all four of his limbs while he’s alive, leaving only his bones.”A cold voice was heard, and when everyone turned around, they saw someone pushing Ferb out.At this moment, Ferb looked bloodthirsty and was looking at Chase like a savage beast.Everyone felt their hearts turn cold once they heard that.That was the torture method of ancient times.Chase put his hands behind his back and said slowly, “You did so muc

    It did not explode or turn into dust. Instead, Chase had slapped his head into his chest.Louie's headless body then fell backward, completely motionless.Everyone was staring at the scene in front of them without moving.Louie was a martial arts master, yet his head was slapped into his chest by a single strike?“How is this possible?”Horton’s smile froze before he started roaring hysterically.Arthur’s face twitched, and his hands that were behind his back started shaking too.Ferb’s eyes were wide with disbelief, and he looked as though he had just seen a ghost.At the same time, Leo and Lance cried out sadly, “Louie!”Suddenly, they flew backward as they rushed toward the door.“Gosh, are they running away?”Everyone’s jaws were on the floor.It was only natural that the last two Hendersons wanted to run away. The moment their youngest brother died, they felt a huge wave crashing against their hearts.Louie was an inner strength martial artist and yet he was killed ju

    "What do you intend to do?" Chase's expression grew wary.He fixed his gaze on the figure slowly approaching him. The man stopped just three feet away, his eyes narrowing as if he were trying to piece together a memory."Your aura… It feels familiar, as if I've encountered it before," Jaden murmured. His brows furrowed as he struggled to recall the sensation. Suddenly, his eyes widened in shock."Could it be…" His voice trembled with a trace of fear. "You're Chase, the last remnant of the Collins family?"Chase smirked coldly. "Since you already know, there's no need for pretense. I came to your pharmacy today to seek justice—nothing more."Narrowing his eyes, Chase released a chilling aura that pressed down on Jaden like a crushing wave.Jaden's body trembled uncontrollably, unable to withstand the overwhelming pressure. He fell to his knees in an instant.Ryker, who was standing nearby, was dumbfounded. His father was the commanding steward of the pharmacy, yet he had just kne

    "I…" The guards hesitated.The commotion had spiraled out of control, casting a negative light on the pharmacy. They dared not intervene recklessly now.Ryker, however, was furious. "How dare you?! This is not a place for you to act out!"He lunged toward Chase, only to be stopped by the guards. "Sir, we urge you not to get involved!""I'm the steward of this pharmacy! If such chaos occurs on my watch, none of you will escape punishment!" Ryker declared coldly.The pharmacy was owned by the Larsen family and managed directly under Ryker's authority."Mr. Larsen, this Chase fellow is a Pill Refiner. We can't afford to provoke him.""Yes, he's a Pill Refiner!"Several guards quickly defended Chase, fearing Ryker's wrath might end up implicating them.Hearing this, Ryker paused for a moment, then burst out laughing. "So, you're a Pill Refiner?"I think you're just a con artist! How could a mere nobody like you know anything about refining pills? To me, it seems you're pretending

    The pharmacy attendants scoffed and sneered at the scene.Chase paid no attention to their foolishness. Without hesitation, he freed Myra from her restraints and supported her as they moved away from the commotion.During their brief confrontation earlier, Chase had already assessed Myra's condition. Her injuries were severe—her Sea of True Energy was shattered, her bones were fractured, her organs were damaged, and her foundation was nearly destroyed.If he had not arrived in time, her life would have been at serious risk.As Chase used his skills to heal Myra, he noticed something peculiar. He could detect a faint yet familiar aura on her.The realization sent shockwaves through his mind."Myra, what on earth happened to you?" he murmured softly while brushing her hair gently.At that moment, he sensed movement from the pharmacy.Turning around, Chase spotted Ryker walking toward him with an air of arrogance. The youth's eyes narrowed into slits, as though nothing in the worl

    "Huh?"Hearing this, the young attendants in the pharmacy were stunned.This pharmacy belonged to the renowned Valley of the Medicine King within the martial arts domain. It was said to be backed by a martial monarch, a saintly master of both medicine and martial arts!The so-called Dr. Larsen was a descendant of the Larsen family. He was celebrated for his extraordinary knowledge of medicine and unparalleled medical skills."Where did this brat come from, causing trouble and disturbing the peace? Get out of here before I lose my patience!"A young man dressed in a blue brocade robe glared at Chase, scolding him harshly. This young man looked to be around 17 and had a handsome and refined appearance. He exuded an elegance befitting a noble scion.However, his expression was icy, and his eyes were sharp, reflecting intense malice and murderous intent."Mr. Larsen, you don't need to concern yourself regarding this matter. Please forgive him," said the green-robed guard captain out

    Chase unsheathed his sword and struck with precision. A flash of sword light, sharp and unstoppable, swept through the air and pierced one attacker's chest."What?!"The remaining two were stunned, unable to believe the boy before them was far more formidable than they had anticipated."Die!"One of them charged forward, swinging a blade that sent a dazzling crescent of energy hurtling toward Chase's throat. Meanwhile, the other flanked him, launching a sneak attack.The two attackers coordinated flawlessly, their strikes merciless and intent on ending Chase's life.Chase raised his sword to block the fatal blow, then countered with a swift thrust.Blood sprayed as the one attempting a sneak attack failed to react in time, and his heart was pierced. He collapsed in a lifeless heap.Chase smirked coldly, withdrawing his sword as he stepped back. His gaze swept over the two corpses, and he shook his head.These black-clad men were weak—far inferior to Bryson. Their techniques we

    "You..."Bryson's pupils contracted, his eyes brimming with terror and regret.Chase's expression remained cold. "It's over."Turning his gaze toward an elder in a black robe who had appeared unnoticed, he asked, "Were you sent to silence me?"With an arrogant look on his face, the elder sneered, "Surrender willingly and perhaps you'll suffer a little less."Chase's body erupted with thunderous lightning, illuminating him like a God of Thunder descending upon the mortal realm. With a powerful motion, he hurled Bryson's lifeless body aside.The black-robed elder coughed up blood as he staggered back several steps, his eyes filled with shock. Meanwhile, Bryson's body lay crumpled where it had landed, now lifeless."What overwhelming strength!" The elder's eyes narrowed, but he quickly composed himself and scoffed. "I admit I underestimated you. But don't think for a second that you can defeat me!"With those words, the elder's figure shot toward Chase. His right palm sliced thr

    Hearing this, Bryson let out a cold laugh. "Oh? Myra Wallace is a direct descendant of the Kollins family? This won't be an easy task.""Don't worry," Bentley reassured him. "As long as you handle this, the rewards will far exceed your expectations."Bryson remained silent for a long while, then sighed and nodded. "Fine, I'll do it.""Thank you, Mr. Cabral," Bentley said gratefully."You're certain she's just a normal woman?" Bryson asked with a frown.Bentley nodded firmly. "Absolutely. From what I've gathered, she's just an ordinary person.""Very well. In that case, I'll prepare my men. Wait for my signal," Bryson replied, standing up and walking out of the hall.He headed directly toward the inner yard, moving without interruption until he entered a luxurious palace."Bryson?" A stunning young woman in a red dress was playing the cello. Hearing his footsteps, she quickly turned around.Seeing that it was him, her cheeks flushed with a shy, charming smile. "Bryson, what b

    "Who sent you?" Chase asked in a deep voice."W-We were sent by World Villa. I-It was the Supreme Elder who ordered us to find you," the burly man stammered. His face was pale with fear. He was desperately trying not to say the wrong thing and provoke Chase's wrath."World Villa?" Chase narrowed his eyes. A cold glint flashed within them.He feared no one. However, Myra was in a weakened state, and he did not want her entangled in further trouble.Moreover, it was clear that World Villa was targeting him specifically. Chase resolved not to bring additional danger to Myra.After a moment of contemplation, he decided to show mercy—for now."Get out of here!" he barked. "And tell your boss this, I'll settle this score sooner or later.""Y-Yes, of course! Thank you for your mercy!""Thank you! Thank you!"The three martial monarchs bowed repeatedly before fleeing in disgrace.Meanwhile, Chase remained in place, lost in thought."Chase, are you worried that World Villa will trace

    Myra nodded obediently. Then, she took out a pendant and handed it to Chase with a solemn expression. "Chase, keep this emerald pendant safe. It'll protect you.""Oh?" Chase raised an eyebrow.The pendant was clear, almost transparent. A faint flame seemed to flicker within it, radiating a searing heat."This is incredible," Chase remarked in admiration.Then, a cold gleam flashed through his eyes, sending a chill down Myra's spine."This pendant is the only keepsake left to me by my family. I can't lose it," Myra said seriously. "But I'm giving it to you now!"Chase shook his head. "This pendant is far too valuable. I can't accept it."Myra quickly waved her hands. "No, no, it's not some treasure. If you encounter danger, just crush it.""If that's the case, I won't decline," Chase replied with a slight nod and put the pendant away.Seeing him accept it, Myra sighed in relief, and her gaze softened with affection.…The next morning, Chase slowly opened his eyes as sunlight
