At this moment, Lord Webb was lying weakly in the ICU room of his luxurious mansion. Wires and cables scattered on his body like a million worms. The ECG monitor, blood pressure machine, blood oximeter, and so on were hooked to his body to monitor his condition round the clock. In fact, in order to sustain the old man’s condition, the doctors infused nutrient solutions through a tube and installed an oxygen inhalation system for him.The TikTok video was such a disastrous blow to Lord Webb that it triggered a severe heart attack instantly. Couple with his old age, he wasn’t physically and mentally strong enough to withstand the blow that he succumbed to a heart attack. It was fortunate that it didn’t escalate to a full-blown myocardial infarction.The old man was lying in bed, angrily cursing, when Donald, Sean, Kean, Derrick, and the rest of the family members came into the ICU room.“Those two shameless bastards, how dare they openly insult my family! If I don’t kill them, the W
Sean knew that his grandfather adored him since he was a kid. He burst into tears and quickly wiped his tears away and said firmly, “Grandpa, don’t worry about me, I can handle it. You must take care of yourself!”Lord Webb, similar to Lord Moore, was the face of the Webb family. Moreover, he was very influential and had very wide and diversified social connections. He had friends in politics, business, and even the underworld. This was not only due to his rich experience but also because he remained close and direct relationships with many people and had helped a lot of people in the process.If Lord Webb passed away, these people would not be respectful to the Webb family like they did now. By then, the family’s influence would inevitably decrease by a large margin.In addition, Lord Webb was very wise and nimble. He did not hold the power for too long, instead, he chose to retire and hand over the power to Donald. In this way, his descendants would not resent or disgust with hi
The Webb family quickly released a new house rule: ‘TikTik app is strictly prohibited within the compound of the Webb family mansion and will be considered a violation of the house rule and be punished with severe punishment!’Of course, the Webb family members adhered to the rule religiously because the video was a literal insult to their family. They wouldn’t want to watch it even if someone paid them to watch. However, the servants found the house rule repulsive.They were just working for the Webb family, they didn’t mind at all regarding the video that was transfixed in the app. On the contrary, they loved watching the video as it was very thrilling and exciting!This was mainly because the servants were subjected to a set of very strict and stern restrictions and regulations. There were many house rules that mainly controlled the servants which mostly would be punished physically or mentally once they violated the house rules.Because of the inhumane house rules, the se
Kian barged forward and started kicking and punching the driver!The driver yelled in pain, but he didn’t want to provoke Kian further, hence, he could only raise his arms to protect himself from the punches. When he couldn’t hold it anymore, he quickly pulled his pants up and ran out of the toilet, didn’t even bother to wipe his buttock first.Kian shouted behind him, “Hey, hey, f*ck! Don’t you dare run away from me! I’ll break your leg!”Once he took a step forward, he suddenly felt dizzy and whimpered softly, “Oh damn…”He knew that the time had come again!In an instant, Kian Webb’s consciousness was replaced by the disgusting desire. His eyes blinked ecstatically when he saw the filthy excretion that the driver didn’t manage to flush away. He ran back into the toilet, squatted down, reached into the toilet bowl, grabbed the excrement, and stuffed it into his mouth… A few servants glanced in confusion when they saw the driver running out of the toilet while holding his pants
Seventy men from Sudbury combed Aurous Hill, not leaving any missing sight.However, they could not find any clues regarding the whereabouts of Cain and Marcus. In fact, Cain and his family were in the car, leaving Aurous Hill and speeding towards the north. It was easy to catch a fish in a washbasin, but it was very difficult to find the precise fish in a freaking lake!Marcus was behind the wheels in the middle of the night, the lavish Mercedes Benz running wildly on the road. Suddenly, Cain’s phone rang.It was Cain’s neighbor who called. They retained a good relationship as they always hung out and had a drink or two together.Before they left town, he called his neighbor to ask him to take note in case there were any unusual activities around his house. So, when his neighbor called at a time like this, Cain assumed that there must be something happening at his house.Sure enough, as soon as he answered the call, the man on the other end of the line said in a low voice, “
Tyler, Reuben’s father, was also stunned as he watched the scene. He was even more depressed than Reuben. As an heir apparent, his biggest fear was that his father would stay alive too long.Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty held the reigns for 61 years, and Yinreng, the son of the emperor’s first spouse, was the crown prince for forty years. Eventually, the crown prince got tired of waiting for succession and challenged his father to abdicate his throne.As Lord Moore was still holding the majority power of the family, the longer he lived, the more miserable Tyler would be.If the old man lived for another ten years, he would be in his 70s already, how could he still be the head of the family?It was even possible that he would die before his father…Tyler felt dejected when he thought of it.Jasmine, however, was delighted as she watched her grandfather getting healthier and more energized than before.Seeing that the old man was showing some signs of fatigue, she quickly m
Early the next morning. Claire went to her office after eating breakfast.Jacob sat in the living room, sulking and glowering. He shot a silent and disdainful glare at Elaine when she walked into the living hall.When he thought about the two million dollars that Elaine lost in the silly mahjong game, the wrath of fury reignited inside him.He didn’t have much money himself. The two million dollars were the savings they had accumulated over the years, including the money that he earned from reselling the antique, but now, it had all gone down the drain.In fact, Jacob felt that he should pick up his old tricks and begin trading at Antique Street again, and thus, he asked Zachary to sell his antiques.Elaine pasted a sheepish smile on her face when she saw Jacob, feeling guilty and sorry, but Jacob treated her as if she was invisible.She dared not complain about it, so she turned to Charlie and chided agitatedly, “Hey, Charlie, since you have nothing to do around here, quickly
“Oh?! A very wealthy client?” Elaine asked in surprise.“Yes, we have an appointment at noon.”“That’s awesome!” Elaine shrieked in glee and said, “Hurry and go! Make more money while you’re at it, it’s best if you can earn enough for the furniture and appliances purchase!”“Hmm, I’ll see what I can do.”In truth, Charlie already had the plan sorted out. He planned to take out two million from his card to buy the furniture and claim that it was from the feng shui job.He didn’t want his wife to live in this dilapidated house anymore. Besides, their room was only a wall’s gap from Elaine’s, they even had to share a bathroom. It was getting quite annoying and irritating now.If they moved to the villa, they would occupy one floor while Jacob and Elaine stayed on a different floor. That way, they could reduce the chances of bumping into each other and the friction along the way.Therefore, he bluffed about the feng shui job, but his plan was to go to the bank after lunch with Lord
