At the same time, in Oskiatown, New York.Janusâs restaurant was doing well because it was lunchtime. Him and his staff were busy going around to and fro as they served the customers. All the while, Janus had been quietly looking out the door.Ever since this morning, he noticed something strange. There was always a random car parked across the road in front of the shop. To top it off, the other party had changed four cars and parked at different spots. Although they were parked differently, Janus knew they could all see the main entrance of his restaurant.This knowledge made him a little anxious. He was restless.He knew the New York police must be after him.Being targeted by the police made Janus even more nervous. Meanwhile, one of his staff noticed that he had been acting strangely. âWhatâs the matter, sir?ââIâm fineâĶâ Janus replied. âGet on with your work and just let me be.âThe staff member nodded. âIf youâre tired, take a break. I can work alone.â Janus was pleased

Angus was shocked, not expecting these words from Janus. âJanusâĶ W-Why are you returning to Hong Kong? That Shawn guy will kill you!âJanus smiled. âBack then, I extended my stay in the United States through illegal means. Iâm an illegal immigrant. Now that the police have found me, it wonât be long before they deport me. Even if I donât want to leave, I donât have control over my circumstances.â Angus blurted out, âEven so, you canât just sit here and wait until youâre deported! Why donât you leave New York and hide somewhere else?ââNo need.â Janus shook his hand, indifferent. âIâve been hiding for two decades. If I continue, Iâll just hate myself more.âAfter that, he looked at Angus and said seriously, âIâve always wanted to go back, but I never had the courage. Iâll take this opportunity to return. Consider this something that helped me make a decision.âAngus was nervous. âYou can still live if you hide. What if that Shawn guy doesnât want to let you go? If you go back, you

Afternoon soon came. In order to avoid arriving at the concert at the same time as Keithâs family, Charlie brought Claire to the concert hall ahead of schedule.Many fans had gathered inside and outside the concert venue, waiting anxiously for the concert to begin. It was not admission time yet, so these fans caused a traffic jam at the venue.Fortunately, the venue had a VIP lane with special security personnel in charge of maintaining order outside. Therefore, this place was free from fan disturbance.Charlie informed Quinnâs agent Dorothy about his and Claireâs arrival in advance. As his car arrived at the entrance of the VIP lane, the security allowed them to pass after checking the license plate.The VIP was a tunnel road going downwards. As the car entered the straight road, it would then drive to the stadiumâs underground parking. From the entrance, one could see the light on the opposite side. The entrance of the VIP area was in the middle of this passage.The VIP lane wa

âItâs fine. Donât worry about it,â Dorothy said. âMaster Wade has helped us so much. Weâre the ones who troubled him.âThen, Dorothy deliberately added, âWe mustâve caused a lot of trouble for making Master Wade drop by New York frequently to help with our Feng Shui issues. Weâre so sorry to disturb your time together. I hope you donât mind, Mrs. Wade.âClaire, however, didnât understand the implication behind Dorothyâs words. âItâs alright, Miss Chan. This is my husbandâs job. Itâs all within his responsibility.â Dorothy smiled and nodded softly. She had a lot of meaningful things she wished to tell Claire, but she knew she shouldnât go overboard in Charlieâs presence. Therefore, she stopped before she spoke too much.She said with a smile, âMaster Wade, Mrs. Wade. Please come with me. Iâll take you to the VIP room.â Charlie noticed what Dorothy was trying to do, but as she knew when to stop, he let her behavior slide. He only said indifferently, âThank you, Miss Chan.ââYouâr

Charlie knew that Dorothy was implicitly reminding Claire not to go out if possible. As for Charlie, he wouldnât go out unless necessary in order to avoid meeting the Ackers.Despite that, how could Claire understand Dorothyâs subtle hint? She said almost immediately, âDonât worry, Miss Chan. We wonât go anywhere.â Dorothy smiled and checked the time. Finally, she said, âOther VIP guests are arriving soon. Theyâll be in the room next door. Theyâll arrive in ten minutes, and Iâll be attending to them soon. Iâll excuse myself first so I wonât interrupt you two.âClaire nodded. âSure. Go ahead, Miss Chan. Donât worry about us.ââAlright.â Dorothy nodded. Before she left, she said to Charlie, âMr. Wade, Iâll be leaving.â After Dorothy left, Charlie sat absentmindedly on the sofa in the living area. The thought of his grandparents arriving in ten minutes made him restless. Claire noticed that something was wrong with him. Charlie was acting strange. She sat beside him and asked wit

At this time, Charlieâs attention was almost entirely focused on his grandparents, who were just separated from him by a wall.He heard Dorothy saying respectfully to his grandmother, âLady Acker, you donât have to be so polite with me. You are Quinnâs grandmother, and it is our honor to have you and Lord Acker come to attend Quinnâs concert!âLady Acker smiled and said, âNana is now the most famous Oskian celebrity in the world. It is an honor for us to be able to come to her concert.âLord Acker, who was aside, could not help but sigh as he said, âMiss Golding is indeed the light of the Oskians seeing as she could have such a strong appeal and can even bring her concert to the United States.âLady Acker chided gently, âWhy are you calling her Miss Golding?! She is your future granddaughter-in-law. Donât refer to her in such a formal manner. Her name is Nana.âLord Acker laughed heartily and said, âYes, yes, Honey. You are right to criticize me.âDorothy could not help but sigh

This also made Charlie a little more cautious. He didn't have to step out of this door as long as the performance was not over.Meanwhile, inside the private room next door.Lord Acker and Lady Acker were sitting on the sofa. Christian and his wife were next to the elderly couple, and Kaeden, Jaxson and his wife, as well as Charlieâs youngest aunt, Lulu, were all sitting opposite them.As for Merlin, he headed straight to the bar and poured himself a glass of whisky. After that, he sat on the long footstool at the bar as he drank by himself.In addition to the four Acker siblings and Charlieâs three uncles and aunts, both of Kaedenâs sons, Jaxsonâs eldest daughter, and Luluâs twelve-year-old daughter had also come together with them tonight.These juniors were all Charlieâs cousins, and they were also Quinnâs fans. Hence, they had followed their family all the way here from Los Angeles. Both of Christianâs daughters liked Quinn very much. However, it was just that his eldest dau

When Christian heard the news, he too became instantly happy, and he smiled brightly as he said, âNo wonder youâre f*cking grinning from ear to ear. So, it turns out that youâre going to be a grandfather!ââThatâs right!â Merlin said excitedly, âThe old ancestors say that family is the closest thing to our heart, and it turns out to be really true! The moment my daughter said that she was pregnant, I do not want to stay in New York for another f*cking minute. I want to fly over tonight and give them a surprise!âChristian laughed and said, âOh, so you know how to surprise your wife and kid? Not bad, thereâs progress!âAfter saying that, Christian then said, âAlright, donât waste your time here anymore. Iâll ask the crew to get ready, and you can go to the airport now!âMerlin hurriedly said, âNo, no, no. Iâve already agreed to accompany Lord Acker and Lady Acker to watch the concert. I cannot leave as soon as Iâve arrived. I am not in such a hurry to leave, and it will not be too l

As soon as Jacob sent the voice message, Mr. Bay called.Jacob quickly answered, asking nervously, "How are things over there, Mr. Bay?""How, you askâĶ?" Mr. Bay sighed in exasperation. "The entire Calligraphy and Painting Association was demanding your dismissal as soon as Zachary Evans posted his statement, thinking that you have no business being the administrative vice president let alone have a place in the association."Even those officials came asking me questions, and you know how they areâgossipers, every last one of them, always finding out about the juicy stuff instantly even if it's really no big deal. The only excuse I have to stop them is that we don't have the facts, but this issue still needs to be taken care of."So, be straight with me. Were you a part of this? If you don't, do you have any definitive evidence that can refute Zachary's claims?""IâĶ UhâĶ" Jacob stammered, unable to answer.He certainly wanted to say no, but he had no evidence to back himself up.

Jacob bellowed furiously, "Raymond Cole made over 19 million dollars! From my bronze sculpture! Yet you're telling me to refund that 300 thousand too?! You're just fucking with me, aren't you?!""Well, if you don't like it, just do what you like, then," Zachary replied calmly and quickly hung up before Jacob could answer.Jacob was left twitching and shaking endlessly, and there was no telling if it was from rage or fear.Beside him, Elaine quickly asked, "What did Zachary say, dear? Can he get that bronze sculpture back?"Caught by surprise at her question, Jacob flinched, and his phone slipped out of his grasp.As it seemed to hover in the air, he tried to catch it twice but failed, but Elaine managed to grab it.It was then that she noticed that he was sweating all over his face, and she promptly asked, "What's wrong, dear?"Coming to his senses, Jacob's eyes went wide with rage. "Zachary is trying to kill me! He leaked the whole thing to his Twitter pageâit's like he's pulli

Jacob turned his phone's loudspeaker on before switching panels to Twitter.He was already shocked to find dozens of people directly messaging him, and he was naturally curious why so many of them were looking for him while he was on his trip to Dubai.However, he had no time to find out as he promptly tapped on his social feed, and it took much swiping to reach Zachary's apology post.He tapped on it, scanning through it just before he went dizzy, the world spinning around him while a dull hum rang in his ears.Never would he have expected Zachary to spill the beans, leaking every detail including Jacob's name and contact information. What was that if not mutual destruction?!Absolutely furious, he bellowed at Zachary again, "What the fuck is this?! Are you trying to kill me, posting this shit?!""I'm sorry, Mr. Wilson, but I've come to understand how grave of a mistake I've made," Zachary calmly replied. "I've actually visited Treasure Measure earlier to apologize to Mr. Cole

Within hours, Jacob and Elaine's flight had landed at Dubai International Airport, and the first thing he did was turn off his phone's flight mode.Then, staring at the upper right corner, he waited for the phone to find a network signal.He had connected to international data roaming, and within a few dozen seconds, he was connected to the internet.Once he did, a ton of notifications popped up on his phone, but he didn't care to check any of them and instead opened his contacts and called Zachary.Zachary was in his office, ready to do his usual rounds inspecting Don Albert's premises.While he had indeed completely lost his reputation at Aurous Hill's Antique Street after pinning that post on top of his social page and was given plenty of weird looks by people around him, he didn't care because he knew how to prioritize.Right now, the most important thing that he had to do was put all his body and spirit into his work and not get distracted by anything else.Only then could

The man who had called out to him shrugged. "Zachary posted it on his account. Check it out yourself!"Mick promptly tapped out of his message editor, refreshed his social feed, and immediately saw Zachary's apology post.Once he tapped on it and read it, he almost had a stroke and was cursing before he knew it, "Fuck technology! It's like a self-exploding truck! Fuck you, Zachary Evans, blowing yourself up before I could end you! What a bitch!" Naturally, the post also made Jacob infamous.The Calligraphy and Painting Association more or less had a stake in the antique trade, and the members were shocked that Jacob was involved in such a scandal.Within minutes, word reached Mr. Bay, leaving him pacing around in his office anxiously.Mr. Bay was eager to suck up to Jacob too, which was why he had intended to let Jacob inherit his position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association after he was promoted.But while he thought it was as good as done, he didn't expec

With that in mind, Raymond quickly understood what had happenedâCharlie must have been informed of the entire story and was intent on teaching Zachary, Mick Crane, and Jacob a lesson.Hence, he smiled at Zachary, "You really didn't have to apologize about that. I should be thanking you gentlemen since business isn't exactly booming in Antique Street, and I couldn't ask for more, opening up with such a grand deal."Zachary felt like he had been slapped in the face, but he was also relieved that Raymond wasn't pressing the issue, so he said earnestly, "Don't worry, Mr. ColeâI won't ever meddle with your business or conspire against you again. However, I won't hesitate to answer if you ever call on me!"Also, you have nothing to worry aboutâwe will return the full amount of the 300 thousand we got from you. Please forgive us and don't charge us with anything elseâĶ"Raymond pulled him to his feet, smiling as he said, "After a conflict comes friendship. Do drop by more often if you have

At the moment, Treasure Measure was congested as crowds of people were there to congratulate Raymond on his new business or ask for appraisals of their items.Zachary stood at the door, hesitating for a moment before steeling himself and entering.Many in Aurous Hill's Antique Streett knew him and also knew that he wasn't the man he was before, so many greeted him the instant he entered, each person more respectful the next.Zachary was left sweating, only realizing then that he had really messed up and didn't deserve the privilege that Master Wade and Don Albert had given him.His eyes fixed on Raymond, and he went over, feeling very embarrassed.Seeing him, Raymond presumed that he was going to do it himself after his men had failed to recover the bronze sculpture, and he asked warily, "To what do I owe the pleasure, Zachary?"Zachary suddenly dropped to one knee, exclaiming in regret, "Mr. Cole, I'm sorry!"Raymond was frowning as he thought Zachary was up to more tricks, but

Mick was utterly hopeful as he watched the Moore Group human resource manager return, believing that he had turned things around.However, as soon as the human resource manager sat down, he immediately said, "Apologies, Mr. Crane. It seems that it's not just the significant losses you've incurred for the companyâyou are now also found guilty of personal misconduct, specifically unethical business stratagems. As per the company's wishes, your labor contract is terminated immediately."Mick certainly didn't think that telling the truth had failed to resolve the significant losses part, and he was now slapped with personal misconduct on top of that.Bracing himself, he asked the human resource manager, "But what did Ms. Moore say? She's close friends with Don Albert, and everyone involved in this are friends, anywayâĶ"The human resource manager shook his head and said coolly, "Save your breath, Mr. Crane. The issue has been decided without grounds for further discussion. The notice of

With those words, Mick whipped out his phone, holding it in front of the Moore Group human resource manager and showing his chat records with Zachary as well as the script he had sent."I know words don't mean much, but here's the chat records between myself and Zachary Evans! See for yourself!"At this point, Mick had to do whatever he could.After all, Don Albert was a friend of Jasmine Moore, and the chat records would prove that he hadn't made a blunder and was merely following a staged act that Zachary had planned.From a certain point of view, he was implicating Zachary and Don Albertas as well, but he really had no choice but to bet everything on it.The human resource manager was actually frowning after seeing the chat records too, surprised that something like this had happened, with Don Albert's henchman being involved too.Eyeing Mick, he said, "Hold on. I'll make a call."Seeing that the human resource manager was taking him seriously, Mick felt hope once more as the
