Instead, they split all the illegal transactions and gave them to those seemingly unrelated puppet gangs below. In secret, they continuously pushed those gangs to expand their influence in New York and even across the entire East Coast, aiming to increase their power and overall illegal income.Meanwhile, the Zanos’ public face, led by this generation's head of the family, Antonio, was doing its best to whitewash its identity and ingratiate itself with high society. Antonio knew very well that the higher echelons of society needed tools like the mafia. However, their hypocrisy meant they wouldn't allow any open cooperation with the mafia. This meant that for a mafia family to get their attention, the first thing they needed to do was to cleanse themselves.To put it simply, what high society needed now wasn't something hidden under the bed, like a night pot. They needed something they could openly display in the bathroom, which was clean and odorless like a toilet.Traditional maf

At the same time, Charlie drove the inconspicuous Chevrolet, carrying the nervous Angus, to the outskirts of Zano Manor. From the outside, they could see that Zano Manor was very lively at the moment. The entire estate was brightly lit with a large number of mafia members in black suits standing straight on both sides of the entrance, seemingly waiting for some important person.Upon seeing this from afar, Charlie couldn't help but smile and say, “Looks like we've come at the right time. The Zanos family seems to be having some major event.”Angus swallowed nervously and asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, there are at least a few hundred people here at first glance. Are we really going in to cause trouble?”Charlie smiled and said, “Didn't I say we're going to put on a show for them? Just follow me later. I'll signal to you to give you instructions later.”He then added, “But if you're really worried, I can go in alone.”Angus spoke up without hesitation and said, “Mr. Wade, I am worried

The girl inside said helplessly, “Okay, you're right. Now, please leave first. I need some time to freshen up and get dressed!”Antonio said coldly, “I'll give you ten minutes. I'll wait here for you.”The girl had no choice but to say, “As you wish. If you're willing to wait, no one's stopping you.”Antonio chuckled coldly and warned, “Jilian, I advise you not to try to climb out the window to escape because I've already arranged for someone to watch outside your window. Once you climb out, they'll catch you and take you to the airport directly!”The girl was instantly furious. “You jerk!”Antonio, unperturbed by his daughter's insults, smiled and said, “Remember, Jilian, Sicilian girls live for their family for life! Betraying the family would be a disgrace to me. I would rather send you to Sicily and have you shear sheep for life than let you become a disgrace to the family.”The girl screamed hysterically, “Antonio Zano! I hate you!”Antonio said, “You can hate me, Jilian, b

After he was done speaking, he turned on the headlights and stepped on the accelerator to drive out.Meanwhile, inside the black sedan, Jilian, who was dressed in a white evening gown, drove the car out in a hurry. Earlier, she had deliberately damaged her dress and used that as an excuse to slip away from the main hall. She found this black sedan in the yard with its keys still in it.At this moment, Jilian had no idea where to go. She only wanted to escape quickly before anyone noticed her absence and reacted. However, just as she nervously drove the car out of the estate, a Chevrolet suddenly appeared at the entrance of the manor.She instinctively tried to brake, but for some reason, despite all her efforts, she couldn't push the brake pedal down even a bit. Unbeknownst to Jilian, this moment was exactly what Charlie had been waiting for.Regardless of who was driving, Charlie had used his Reiki to block the brake pedal and the steering wheel, making the car unable to slow do

“Extort?!”When Charlie heard this, he got angry and blurted out, “I was merely driving by here. I didn't offend anyone and was suddenly hit by this girl's car. It is natural for me to ask for compensation. How can you say I am extorting her? Don't bully the minority with your numbers, and don't think that I am afraid of you because of your numbers!”The mafia member immediately took out a pistol from his waist, pointed it at Charlie's head, and said coldly, “Get out now! If you speak more gibberish, I will shoot you to death!”Charlie said angrily, “Damn it! You are really capable. You want to shoot me in public?”At this time, Angus pushed open the passenger door of the Chevrolet, holding up the phone in his hand as he said loudly, “Mr. Charlie, I have called the police!”Charlie nodded with satisfaction, looked at the members of the mafia, and said coldly, “Aren't you going to shoot me? Come on, shoot me right here!”As he spoke, Charlie pointed to his forehead and said, “Shoo

There was no way he would let such a good opportunity slip by.So, he stubbornly said, “I want cash, and I'm waiting right here. If you don't give me the money, I'll wait for the police to arrive!”Jilian looked nervous and desperate as she pleaded bitterly, “Sir, please take me away from here, and I'll give you two hundred thousand US dollars!”Charlie remained unmoved as he insisted, “I want cash, and I want it now!”Jilian was on the verge of tears as she anxiously looked back toward the estate, fearing her father might come chasing after her. However, Charlie didn't give her any chance.At that moment, a tall, stout man in a suit hurriedly approached with a large group behind him. Jilian fell into despair when she saw this because the man in the front of the group was her father, Antonio.Antonio was furious and alarmed. He never expected that just moments after Jilian had accidentally damaged her dress and was supposedly mending it, he would receive reports that she had cras

Antonio's mouth twitched twice when he heard Charlie's offer.He clenched his teeth and forced a smile as he said, “Okay, you are really capable of extorting the mafia!”Charlie asked curiously, “Hey! Are you a mafia member?”Antonio sneered, “What? You just realized?”After saying that, he put the one thousand US dollars back into his wallet and said to Charlie with a look of arrogance, “Since you know my identity, you still have time to get out now.”Charlie said disdainfully, “Are you still asleep? You want to get rid of me without paying me?”Antonio clenched his teeth and said, “Young lad, if you can't grasp the opportunity given to you, don't blame me for being rude to you!”After that, he ordered his men, “Break his legs for me and then drive him a hundred miles away. Hurry up, the VIP is coming soon.”Several men immediately rubbed their hands and walked toward Charlie.At this time, the sound of sirens sounded, and several police cars drove up quickly.After the car

He couldn't believe he was being extorted right at his own doorstep.The critical thing was, he had no way out now.At that moment, his trusted aide approached quietly and said, “Mr. Zano, the VIP is about to arrive.”Antonio instantly felt nervous. He didn't want the VIP to arrive and find him arguing with someone at his doorstep.The main issue was his daughter crashing her car into someone else's car and him refusing to compensate the other party, which was embarrassing.He had no other choice but to nod and pull his henchman over, personally removing the pistol from his waist before he threw it on the ground. He then pushed the henchman toward the police, saying, “Take him away.”After that, he looked at Charlie and said, “You want a hundred thousand US dollars, right? Wait here. I'll get someone to get it for you.”The police officer was stunned to hear this and blurted out, “You're asking him for a hundred thousand US dollars?”Charlie said matter-of-factly, “That’s right

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
