Harper broke out in cold sweat upon hearing that.He was horrified and secretly thought, ‘Quinn is leaving? If she leaves, won’t Master and Finley’s plan be in vain?!’As Homer’s most trusted assistant, Harper knew almost everything about Homer. When Finley had secretly flown to New York, Harper was the one who had gone to JFK to take him back to the Fox family.Harper was well-aware of Homer’s plan today, so he could not allow Quinn to leave just yet. He tried to stall them, and he said, “No signal? That’s impossible! Is there a misunderstanding here?”Charlie firmly said, “Our bodyguards told us that the walkie-talkie and phone signals suddenly disappeared, which was very weird. They’ve just left to inform the bodyguards outside. They’ll come and take Miss Golding away soon.”With that being said, Charlie put on a stern face and explained, “Even if this is a misunderstanding, we can’t risk Miss Golding’s safety! Please understand!”Harper hurriedly said, “Umm... Please stay cal

He had no idea what the ninjas were doing, but he could not allow Quinn to just leave like that. Otherwise, it would be hard for him to find another chance like this again!He could barely think rationally, and he called Harper at once, “Let’s go! You’re coming with me!”Homer only cared about making Quinn stay. He would think of a way to contact the group of ninjas later and see if things could be salvaged. He never considered that this might be a trap against him.After all, he was in the Fox family’s territory. He was not worried about any danger here. Homer wanted to keep his deeds discrete, so the fewer people who knew about this, the better. Thus, he hurriedly rushed to the lounge with only Harper.Homer soon arrived at the guest lounge and saw Quinn standing in front of the room accompanied by Charlie and the others.Homer knew Quinn intended to leave, so he asked, “Oh, Miss Golding, what’s wrong? Why do you want to leave so suddenly? I’m going up on stage to give a speec

Nathaniel Luke, president of the New York Oskian Chamber of Commerce, had just finished his speech and was about to pass the stage to Homer when there was a sudden commotion.Charlie’s yell had attracted the attention of the Fox family’s men and hotel staff, and they went over only to witness a horrifying scene in front of the guest lounge.Quinn’s six bodyguards had been killed and had died on the spot. Homer’s assistant, Harper Saw, had also been brutally killed and had died on the scene too.Worst of all, their young master, Homer, was missing.Homer’s few bodyguards were so frightened and fell to the ground at once. They could not believe that their young master was missing from his family-owned hotel.Among them, there was a middle-aged man named Becker Quill. Becker was also a martial arts master who was responsible for protecting Homer’s safety. He was Jordan’s bodyguard, Jarvis Yant’s junior.However, Homer had never regarded him as his own ever since he had been assigned

Charlie added, “I’ll keep the door closed from now on to keep Miss Golding safe! I’ll only open the door when the police arrive!”After that, Charlie slammed the door shut.Subsequently, the other bodyguards from the security company that was working with Quinn also rushed in, and they were all shocked to see their six companions’ deaths and demanded an explanation from the hotel.The hotel manager soon received the news and quickly rushed over, and the panic-stricken manager tried hard to appease the bodyguards. If the news got to the police, it would become a big scandal for the Fox family. No one dared to bear this responsibility.However, these bodyguards did not know how to work around the matter. When they saw that someone was dead, they immediately called the police.The hotel manager saw that things were getting out of control, so he hurriedly left the crowd and contacted Homer’s father, Xavion Fox, at once.When Xavion received the call from the manager, he was entertain

‘That’s impossible!’ was Xavion’s first thought upon hearing the mention of the Japanese ninjas.He used to let his men deal with the Japanese ninjas before. In his opinion, the Japanese ninjas would never dare to go against the Fox family. Why would they kidnap his son?!With that thought in mind, Xavion looked at Becker and asked coldly, “Are you sure it’s the Japanese ninjas?”“I’m sure!” Becker explained, “Only the Japanese still use hidden weapons like shuriken. It's their tradition to use such poison that kills the victim immediately.”Xavion questioned, “Doesn’t Oskia also have this throwing weapon with poison that kills immediately?”Becker hurriedly said, “Master, Oskia has it, but only in the bast. There were indeed these weapons in martial arts a long time ago, however, during the Boxer Rebellion era, these throwing weapons basically ceased to exist after their defeat. Only martial arts remained in practice. Therefore, these despicable means of hurting people are not se

In Xavion’s opinion, Homer probably wanted to take the opportunity to pursue Quinn. That explained why he had made such a strange arrangement and had not expected the Japanese ninjas to seize the opportunity.In that instance, he could not help but suspect Quinn’s relation to this incident. Was she behind it?With that thought in mind, he told the hotel manager, “Tell Miss Golding to open the door! I have something to ask her!”The hotel manager hurriedly said, “Master, Miss Golding’s men said that they would only open the door when the police arrive.”“Nonsense!” Xavion’s anger grew and became unstoppable. “Does she know that she’s in the Fox family’s territory?!”After that, he took a step forward and kicked the lounge door. He shouted, “Open the door!” Charlie called out from inside, “We’ll only talk to the police. Anyone unrelated to the police should stay away! The farther the rude guys go, the better!” Xavion was shaking in a fury. The fact that his son was missing alrea

Charlie could sense Xavion’s extremely unfriendly gaze, and he casually glanced at him with his peripheral gaze and noticed that Xavion resembled Jordan a lot.Based on the conversation he had overheard from inside earlier, he could be sure that this man was Homer’s father, Xavion Fox.Xavion was burning in savage fury, and as his eyes met Charlies, he barked with the authority of a man who was not to be crossed, “I told you to open the door just now! Why didn’t you open it?!”Charlie said in exasperation, “I don’t even know you. How would I know who you are? I don’t believe in anyone but the police in such an emergency!”Xavion said menacingly, “I am Xavion Fox from the Fox family! Have you ever heard of my name?”Charlie shook his head, “I’m sorry. I just came from Oskia, and I’ve never heard your name before. Besides, your priority now is to find your son. There’s no need to show your authority to me here, right? If you have so much free time, why don’t you search for your son

After a short pause, Merlin added, “Bring in all the staff here tonight for investigation. Check if the number of personnel is the same, and let the staff identify if there are any missing people!”The police officers immediately got to work. After that, Merlin said to Charlie, “You’re most likely the only witnesses at the scene. You didn’t witness the full incident, but you’ll be a great help in solving this case. We’ll need to trouble you to follow us to the police station to make a statement later.”Charlie said, “Miss Golding is a public figure. If she’s seen going in and out of the police station at this time, I’m afraid the media here will try to fabricate fake news to gain attention. It'll be inconvenient.”Having said that, Charlie suggested, “How about this. We’ll go back to the hotel first. You may come to the hotel to meet us for the statement later. We’ll give you our full cooperation.”Merlin nodded and said, “That will do. Once I’m done with the crime scene, I’ll visi

As Ian Cash's trio turned and left Treasure Measure, Trippy was still standing there, staring blankly as they headed off to the distance, utterly dispirited.Seeing that, Raymond returned his phone and said coolly, "We had agreed on some ground rules, but not only did you break them, you even tried to sabotage me.""Since you refuse to be honorable, you can't blame me for being cold—starting now, we shall have nothing to do with each other. We'll be strangers even if we bump into each other."Trippy was already choking, and he snatched his phone back before dashing out of Treasure Measure, calling Mick Crane as soon as he left.Mick had just arrived at Vintage Deluxe and hadn't even sat down when Trippy called, and he asked as soon as he answered, "How did it go? What did you find out?"However, Trippy was so exasperated he burst into tears right then, "M-Mr. Crane… My dear Mr. Crane…"Mick was left reeling from shock, and he promptly snapped, "Can't you fucking talk? Why are you

Seeing that the transaction was complete and that the bargain deal had been taken, the other collectors all excused themselves and left.As for Ian, once he had bagged the bronze sculpture, he nodded at Raymond. "I apologize for leaving early, Mr. Cole, but I must return to Eastcliff. However, you can contact me again should you pick up another treasure. I'm quite a spendthrift, and I pay up right away if the item is good and the price is right."Raymond smiled. "Very well. I shall contact you first the next time I get something good."Ian nodded and was ready to leave with his two friends when Trippy chased after them."Please, Mr. Cash!" He cried urgently, his anxiety overcoming him. "You shouldn't buy that! It's a forgery!"Ian frowned at him. "Are you trying to sabotage Mr. Cole? Aren't you supposed to be his friend?""Hell, no!" Trippy promptly replied. "I'm no friend of his—I'm just here to watch, but I didn't think he dared to trick you for 20 million! I can't bear to see

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
