He thought to himself, “Today is indeed my lucky day! As soon as these two women are brought over, I’ll execute both of them at the specified location. After that, I can escape overseas by boat! I’ll live my future days freely!” As he thought of this, he stole a glance at Helen and Sophie. He could not help but mumble to himself, “These two babes are indeed very beautiful! I’ve never seen such beautiful women in my f*cking life! Helen looks mature and alluring, her beauty is comparable to the Hong Kong artists in the 90's century! Meanwhile, Sophie is young and gorgeous. She’s definitely the most stunning lady among the rest! What a waste to simply kill them off!”Just then, the police spoke using a loudspeaker from the outside, “Listen here, Zakir. You’ve been surrounded by the police! Give up resisting and surrender yourself. You can still possibly get a more lenient treatment if you do so!” Zakir snorted. He simply walked toward the window, opened it, and scolded coldly, “Wh

Indeed, not everyone could afford a Rolls Royce. There were only about tens of Rolls Royces in Aurous Hill. Moreover, a majority of them had been used for many years.A Rolls Royce which had been used many times was not really that expensive. They had been transferred over to many owners, and eventually served as the wedding car for the youngsters to show off. As such, not many people could actually afford a decent Rolls Royce. Chief Whiteford used to have a thought of getting a used Rolls Royce from a wedding studio. After all, if anything were to happen to the car, the cost of bearing the damages of a used car would not be that costly. On second thought, he changed his mind again and thought to himself, ‘Zakir is a fugitive who is highly aware of himself being under investigation. As such, he is not someone to be fooled around with. Getting that jinx out of Treasure Pavilion is a task of paramount importance at this crucial moment. Better yet, out of A

Isaac smiled as he said, “Don’t mention it. We’ve known each other for a long time. Spill it out. What’s the matter?”Chief Whiteford explained to him, “Isaac, something big has happened at Treasure Pavilion. An A-class fugitive is holding more than a hundred people hostage. Furthermore, that fellow is strapped with explosive substances. Now, he’s asking for a Rolls Royce for his escape. We can only fulfill his request!” Chief Whiteford then continued, “Not many people own a Rolls Royce in Aurous Hill. You’re the only one who has the most Rolls Royces, thus, I would like to seek your help to handle the urgent matter!”Isaac cried out in shock, “Treasure Pavilion? Are you sure it’s at Treasure Pavilion?” “Yes!” Chief Whiteford hurriedly replied, “I’m outside of Treasure Pavilion right now. The city has, by all means, transferred a majority of the police manpower over here…”Isaac could not help but say, “I’ve just walked out from Treasure Pavilion ten or twenty minutes ago…”

Upon listening to Charlie’s analysis, Isaac couldn’t help but nodded and said, “It is indeed strange. Normally speaking, normal people should be trying to escape as far as possible, and only a fool would run toward a building when being chased.”Charlie hummed in agreement and said, “Since Zakir is a long-running fugitive on the most wanted list, it is impossible for him to make such a silly mistake, or he would have been caught long ago. This is why I speculate that he deliberately wants to get into the Treasure Pavilion!”“He wants to get into the Treasure Pavilion on purpose…” Isaac muttered to himself, puzzled. “What does he want to do there? They do not hold any big auctions, just the judicial auction today, auctioning houses, cars, and so on. It doesn’t make sense for him to steal those things!”Charlie laughed and said, “Don’t forget that he entered the Treasure Pavilion after being pursued by the police, or should I say, he deliberately ran into the Treasure Pavilion as the

Hansen and his fellow police officers were on pins and needles as they waited for Isaac’s Rolls Royce to arrive. Although Isaac came as soon as he could, they couldn’t help but be anxious due to the critical and urgent state of the ongoing situation.Therefore, he said in a hurry, “Mr. Cameron, thank God you’re finally here! Do you think it’s convenient for you to enter the perimeter? If it is, please drive directly to the main entrance of Treasure Pavilion. Otherwise, I’ll drive the car inside myself.”Isaac turned around and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Wade, what do you think?”Charlie wanted to go in and see what exactly was going on, so he said, “Just drive inside directly.”Isaac immediately said to Hansen, “Chief Whiteford, I’ll drive the car in myself.”“Okay!” Hansen nodded and quickly asked again, “Mr. Cameron, how much fuel is left in the car? Zakir requested to have a full tank. If it’s not full, I’ll ask someone to siphon some from the other cars to fill yours up.”Isa

As Zakir ordered Isaac and Charlie to leave, the first thought that flashed across Isaac’s mind was, ‘I wonder if the young master would be willing to leave?’‘Moreover, I wonder if he will directly make a move on Zakir? With his ability, there wouldn't even be ashes left if he used Thunder Order on Zakir.’‘Even if he is not willing to make a move in front of so many people, with his divine and powerful ability, it’s easy for him to deal with Zakir, right?’Therefore, he immediately looked at Charlie, intending to see what kind of decision Charlie would make.To his surprise, Charlie just waved at him and said, “Hurry up and let’s get out of here.”With that, he turned around and walked away first.Isaac froze in bewilderment before coming back to his senses and hurriedly following Charlie.After the two of them had left the Treasure Pavilion, Hansen approached him and said gratefully, “Oh, Mr. Cameron, thank you so much! Shall I assign someone to send you and this gentleman ba

If the other party did not reply, Zakir could only continue to stay in the Treasure Pavilion. He could only leave when he received the “Amen” reply from the other party.Now that they had given him a clear reply, Zakir had no intentions of delaying things any further. He looked at the crowd in the hall holding their heads down and squatting, and he said coldly, “They have prepared the car I asked for, so it’s time for me to leave. Thank you all for your cooperation. You’ll be free when I leave.”The hundred or so people breathed a sigh of relief as soon as they heard this. Reassured smiles appeared on everyone’s faces.Oskia’s safety was so good that most people would never encounter such a thing in their lifetime. Even if they did, it would be the ultimate good luck for them to come out of it unscathed.Hence, at this moment, everyone completely relaxed and waited anxiously for the ferocious criminal to leave. Then, they would be able to get out of this crisis safely.At this mom

The moment Zakir announced the fate of Helen and Sophie, everyone else finally let out a sigh of relief.They were completely safe now!However, Sophie slumped into a state of extreme desperation. She did not understand why Zakir would choose her mother and herself from more than a hundred people here.But on second thought, she couldn’t help but think, ‘I’m not trying to brag, but if he considers all the people here in terms of appearance and beauty, Mom and I are indeed the more outstanding ones among them all…’‘This Zakir not only looks tough, but he is also a little lecherous. It is reasonable for him to pick Mom and me among so many people…’‘However, I don’t know if he has any other malicious intentions besides wanting us to be his hostages…’At this point, she looked somewhat nervously at her mother.Meeting her daughter’s gaze, Helen gently patted her hand and whispered comfortingly, “Sophie, don’t worry, I’ll be there with you. I’ll protect you no matter what happens.”

No one except Raymond expected that the terms would be agreed upon so quickly.He was utterly confident in his judgment and even more so in his value appraisal.He was convinced that once they had a good look, any one of these collectors who could afford twenty million wouldn't miss this bargain.After all, an opportunity to secure an item worth millions more than the price they paid was very rare.In fact, when the other nine collectors heard that the first collector was buying it, it was only to be expected even if it left them all gloomy. They had all held the bronze sculpture in their hands—they knew it was definitely worth that much.However, no one in the room was more shocked than Trippy.He looked utterly flabbergasted, his eyes wide and bulging as he stared at the bronze sculpture while asking himself the same question repeatedly.Was that crap really worth twenty million? How?!While Trippy was still stunned, Raymond had already sent his payment details to the first

Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"

While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav

Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo
