Chapter 1054

Author: Lord Leaf
At this moment, there was a man’s voice from the other end of the line. He was panting heavily while saying in a deliberately low voice, “Hey, quit the nonsense, will you? Just give him the money! Don’t let him ruin the moment!”

Joey suddenly became alert and asked, “Janice, why is there a man’s voice over there? Who are you with?”

“He’s my cousin! Didn’t I tell you that I injured my waist and am doing the physiotherapy in bed? I can’t get into the right posture, that’s why I’ve let him come and help me.”

Joey mumbled an ‘Oh’, remembering that she was doing exactly that when he called the other day, so he did not suspect anything.

Janice huffed in annoyance. “Okay, fine, I can’t talk right now, I’ll transfer the money to you right now.”

Joey shrieked gleefully and said, “Oh, thank you, Janice baby, thank you so much! I love you!”

“Okay, that’s enough, I’ll hang up now!”

After ending the call, she indeed transferred five hundred and twenty dollars to Joey as promised.

Overjoyed,

    Jayden was in the midst of being upset, but this deadbeat loser dared to challenge him while squatting in front of his car! Without a word, he lifted his leg and kicked Joey to the ground. Then, before Joey could turn around and get back up, he rushed to punch and kick him.Joey wailed in extreme pain and cursed angrily, “F*ck, why are you hitting me? Why? Did I offend you or something? Are you f*cking crazy?”Jayden threw a punch directly on his nose, causing his face to cover with his own blood, and cursed, “You’re the crazy one! Why did you squat in front of my car? And what’s with the tone that you talked to me with just now? You’ve earned yourself some beatings!”Then, he hurled a few more punches at Joey that Joey almost passed out in pain, his eyesight became starry and blurry.When Jayden’s men saw the fight, he got out of the car swiftly and joined his boss to beat Joey violently.It was bad enough for Joey to suffer from a single man’s punches and kicks, but he was in

    It was very disgusting as Joey’s blood was smeared all over his trousers!Annoyed and furious, Jayden kicked him away and shouted sternly, “Hey, stop it, f*ck! Are you f*cking crazy? Do you really want to die? When did my car become yours?! F*ck!”Joey thought that Jayden was also one of Max’s creditors who was trying to take the car away as collateral, so he desperately rushed forward again, clinging to Jayden’s leg, and shouting, “No, this car is mine! It’s mine! You can’t take it!”Jayden was extremely agitated by now. He grabbed Joey’s collar, slapped him multiple times, and cursed, “Are you F*cking crazy? Didn’t you see that I have the key? When did my car become yours?”Joey wailed loudly, “No! This is Max’s car! He owes me six hundred thousand dollars and I want to repay my debt with this car. No, you can’t drive it away! I’ll be so dead if you do!”“Motherf*cker!” Jayden punched him on his face again and shouted, “You really are out of your f*cking mind! Listen, this is my

    Finally, the whole deception unfolded in front of Joey’s eyes.As it turned out, not only was Max not as wealthy and successful as he had claimed he was but had also gotten into massive trouble.He had crashed Jayden’s Phaeton and urgently needed to compensate Jayden with a new car, so he had tricked him into investing six hundred thousand to the so-called get-rich-quick scheme that he constantly boasted about.The worst part now was that the b*stard was dead, which also meant that he wouldn’t see any of his money ever again.At this moment, his heart hurt so much. It hurt more than the physical pain he suffered.Jayden was a little relieved as Joey was not as insane as he had been earlier, and said, “So, now you know this car is mine and I can drive it without any issues, okay?”Although Jayden found Joey disdain, he knew it would be wiser for him to keep his distance away from him after seeing his crazy state.He’d seen a lot of people in the underworld after so many years, so

    Then, the man turned away and walked off, ignoring him.Limping, Joey tried to catch up and cursed behind him, “Hey, b*stard, give me back my money! Hey! I’ll f*cking kill you!”“Crazy!”The man cursed, climbed onto his tow truck, and left.Joey glared furiously at the tow truck as it had gone far. He certainly couldn’t catch up with his truck and his anger was slowly replaced by deep despair again.His current main and urgent concern was how to handle the five hundred thousand dollar debt.He felt like his world was crumbling down on him.At this moment, he thought of Janice, his girlfriend. Joey was an orphan with no parents and relatives to rely on. When he and Janice became a couple, he had automatically assumed her as his only relative.Now that he encountered such a major setback and in desperation, his only hope was to see his beloved woman and anticipate the comfort and warmth she would offer him.Hence, he wiped his messy face with his shirt, limped to the community

    Laying on the ground weakly, Joey stared at the taxi driver who walked towards him with his fearsome look. His arrogant expression when he threatened the driver had long diminished.He grimaced in despair and pleaded, “Boss, I just went bankrupt, I am penniless and I have a lot of debts! And I was beaten up too! Please, I really have no money to pay you, please let me go!”The driver growled furiously, “Do you think you’re the only one with a debt?! Do you think I would still drive a taxi if I were rich? Do you think that forty-five dollars is easy money? It can fill my stomach for two days, for f*ck’s sake! Hurry up and pay me!”Joey wailed in desperation, “Boss, I really have no money nor any valuables on me. Please have mercy and let me go!”“Argh, drop the act! I’ll call the police if you don’t pay up!”Joey struggled to get on his knees and cried, “Boss, I really don’t have any money even if you want to kill me right now! Please, I beg you, please let me go! Is it not enough

    When he came to his girlfriend’s house, he knocked on the door but no one came to open the door.He didn’t know that Janice, his girlfriend, was in her room right now, doing the deed intimately with one of her clients who had bought fake cigarettes from her.He tried calling Janice, but she didn’t answer. He thought that she must be asleep, so he went to the flower vase beside the door and found the key.He had coincidentally discovered this secret by chance. One time, he saw Janice’s mother hiding the key under the vase. He assumed that elders tended to be forgetful, so she had placed a spare key there just in case.Thanks to her, it provided convenient access to Joey.After taking the key, Joey unlocked the door and entered the simple front yard of the house.As he approached the house, he found that the door to the house was closed but not locked, so he pushed the door open and walked in.While passing through the living room, there was suddenly an abrupt and strange noise co

    Joey struggled to get up. He glared at the man and woman on the bed, his eyes fuming with extreme rage and resentment.How dare they flirt at each other right in front of him! Didn’t they feel ashamed? Did they even see his existence?!He had accumulated overwhelming negative energy today that he desperately hoped for some comfort from Janice as he was on the verge of collapse.However, before arriving at Janice’s house, he had been physically and verbally abused by the taxi driver. He even had to kneel and kowtow to him.This incident had pushed him to the very brink of collapse.Unexpectedly, a bigger bomb awaited him. He never would have imagined that his beloved woman would betray him!He went madly insane at this very moment.He no longer thought about the debts that were crushing him right now, nor the humiliation and beating he had suffered today. All he could think of was how to make the two shameless people pay the price!Thus, he crawled to the kitchen and grabbed the

    Five minutes later, Joey took out his phone and dialed 911. “Hello, I want to surrender myself?”The person on the other end of the line hurriedly asked, “What happened? Why do you want to surrender?”Joey said emotionlessly, “I just killed someone…”“Where are you now? Are they dead?”“Yes!” Joey glanced at Janice again, and then slowly stated Janice’s address into the phone.Ten minutes later, two police cars and an ambulance arrived at Janice’s house almost at the same time.The police rushed in with the doctor. The police apprehended Joey and handcuffed him before allowing the doctor to check on the two victims.The doctor quickly announced that both victims were dead.The police immediately took Joey into the police car and formally arrested him.Sitting in the police car, Joey was very calm and indifferent. He knew that this was the end of his life anyway, it didn’t matter whether he lived or died.Although he didn’t show any expression on his face, his heart still hurt

    Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

    Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

    Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

    The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

    It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

    Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

    Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

    "But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom

    "Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
