Keegan, who was next to the guardrail, was angry and anxious when he saw that no one had come forward to give him a hand even after a long time. He could only put his leg down on his own.In order to preserve his own image and reputation. Keegan could only look up at the sky and pound on his own chest before he paused and said, “Oh God! Why do I have such a heartless daughter?!”After saying that, he fell to the ground and fainted. The students who were watching the scene were all taken aback. After that, they looked at Sienna in accusation as they said—“Oh my God, you’re so heartless! You actually made your own father so angry to such an extent! Sienna, you’re too cold-blooded!”“That’s right! I also heard that this is not the first time. Sienna also made her father so angry that he vomited blood and was hospitalized the last time!”“Why is everyone still standing in a daze? Hurry up and call an ambulance!”No one noticed that Sienna had already stepped forward amidst the com
What?Keegan’s heart skipped a beat, and he instantly had a bad premonition.He immediately grabbed the cell phone handed to him by the bodyguard and saw that the headline above was the scene where he was causing a fiasco at school. He did not know whether the person who had secretly filmed the scene had the intention to smear his name or not, but it so happened that the person had captured all of his most hideous expressions!It was as if those ugly pictures alone were not enough as the full version of the video was also uploaded below!What was even more amazing was that the headline of this news read: ‘The wealthy businessman, Keegan Lang, is in arrears in payment for migrant workers, and he even caused a commotion at his daughter’s school by threatening to jump off a building!’This news, coupled with the video of the scene as evidence, caused Keegan to feel as if he had been stripped naked and had no reputation or honor left!How could he hold his head up high and be left wi
When Keegan finally contacted the media, the other party hung up on him directly on the grounds that he was busy. He obviously did not intend to withdraw this groundbreaking news.Keegan was so angry that he smashed several things after he had returned to the villa, before he finally gave up.“I’m so damned furious! They’ve even made my picture into an emoji. This is slander! They are smearing my name and reputation on purpose!”Clara did not dare to say a word out of fear that Keegan would release his anger on her. She simply came up with an excuse and returned to her room.Not long after, the sound of a car engine came from outside. It was Jaime who was back.Keegan came back to his senses, hurried over to Jaime, and said earnestly, “Jaime, you’re back. Help me to think of a way to suppress this goddamned news about me!” Jaime glanced at him indifferently, and the joy or anger in his eyes was indistinguishable. However, there was a hint of oppression coming from him as he said
Clara was admiring her fresh manicure. There was an ambitious, indifferent, and mean look in her eyes, which was completely opposite of her usual simple and kind appearance. However, this scene was not seen by anyone.Soon, the family doctor came.Clara had a worried expression as she made way for the doctor. After the doctor was done examining Keegan, she asked with flushed red eyes, “Doctor, how’s my father? Is he going to be fine?”When the doctor saw the girl crying miserably in front of him, he suddenly felt a little emotional. There were three sons and a daughter in the Lang family, but all of them were not as filial as Keegan’s adopted daughter who was in front of him now. He said, “Don’t worry. Mr. Lang had simply fainted due to anger and anxiety. It’s no big deal. He simply needs to rest. I’ll prescribe some medicine for his qi and liver, and he will be fine after taking it for two days.”“Thank you, Doctor.”Clara wiped her tears away.Keegan woke up leisurely not l
“But…”Clara bit her lips, and she wanted to say something else. However, Keegan cut her off and said, “You should keep it properly. It’s yours if I say it’s yours. Okay, my dear daughter, go back to your room. I want to rest now.”“Okay.”Her efforts were not in vain. Her ‘filial piety’ had been greatly rewarded.Clara picked up the jewelry box and smiled sweetly as she said, “Thank you, Dad.”“Go, go.”Keegan waved his hand.After Clara left, the door was closed again. When no one else was around, Keegan took out the envelope in the jewelry box, opened it, and a black card fell out. There was a balance of one billion dollars in the card!In addition to this black card, there was a piece of paper in the envelope which was a handwritten letter.It was a letter written by his wife; the mother of his youngest daughter, Sienna.The letter was probably written to inform them that the black card with one billion dollars and the whole set of expensive sapphire jewelry were all do
9:00 pm sharp.The Universal Atrium closed on time.Hunter, Monki, and the others sent the experiencers, who were reluctant to leave and were still thinking of going through the experience again, away. After that, they closed the door and calculated their business income for the day.The place was popular, and their income was high every day.“What is our goal?” Hunter cleared his throat and asked loudly. All the subordinates answered in unison, “Work hard to make more money so that the boss becomes the topmost wealthy person!”Yes! Today, they were one step closer to this dream!Hunter stretched his body in satisfaction, then patted the shoulder of a buddy next to him and said, “Monki and I will stay back to clean up today. You guys have worked hard. Go and rest!”The entire building was now theirs. They had expanded the area of the science and technology atrium downstairs, and the top two floors were their rest area. A group of subordinates chatted and laughed amongst them
Monki and Hunter sneered. They were not kind people, and in the early years when they often went to war, what kind of difficult people had they not encountered then? Even if these people’s mouths were sealed tightly, they could still pry them open!Monki picked up a can of gasoline next to him and found that there was still some leftover gasoline in it. He was very happy as he poured the gasoline on one of the arsonists before he threatened casually, “You only have three seconds to consider. I’ll set you on fire if you don’t say anything.” The lighter lid was opened, and a small flame emerged after a click.How could a man who was covered in gasoline dare to gamble with his own life? He hurriedly shouted, “I’ll speak up! I’ll tell you everything! Keegan Lang sent us here. He said that he would give each of us two hundred thousand dollars if we set this place on fire! We were simply instructed to do so!”Monki and Hunter looked at each other. Since the Universal Atrium had been ext
Travis swallowed his saliva. He was obviously somewhat tempted, but he was not a fool. How could there be such a good thing for no reason?Out of caution, he asked, “Dad, what is it you want me to do?”Keegan said faintly, “Take the blame on my behalf.”“What?”Travis raised his voice and stepped back fearfully. What a joke! Although he was ignorant and only knew how to waste his life away, he did not want to go to prison for his stepfather with whom he was not even related by blood!His life would be over if this was a murder charge!It was not worth it!Travis stepped back and said, “Dad, I think that it’s more appropriate for your youngest son to do such a thing. I’m so much worse compared to Jonas. So, why don’t you ask him to come over instead?”It was not that this thought had not crossed Keegan’s mind. However, since he had a stepson who could take the blame for him, why would he get his own son to take the blame for him instead?Keegan was patient as he persevered
