"One billion!"Silence hung in the air.Helena was stunned for a few seconds.She looked at Layla in disbelief, then turned to Jayden, who looked equally flabbergasted. "H-honey… I didn't hear her wrongly, did I? Did Layla say… one billion?""You didn't hear her wrongly. It was one billion." Jayden
"Sir, what can I do for you today?" The female teller at the third counter asked."I'd like to withdraw some money. While you're at it, get me a new card and transfer the money in there," Sean said."Alright, sir. How much do you need to withdraw?""One billion.""One billion?" The teller was shocke
Gregory arrived at the scene very quickly.There were about ten security guards following him.Helena was surprised to see what was happening. "Honey, even the general manager has arrived. He can't be a big client, can he?""I'm not sure…" Jayden shook his head. However, it must be important if the
In the security room, Layla looked anxious as she watched Sean, who was surrounded by a bunch of security guards.Gregory stared unpleasantly at Sean. "Young man, I advise you not to act tough. Tell me the truth. How did you get this black gold card?""I told you. It's mine," Sean said calmly. "You
"Yes, Mr. Watson!" Gregory was rooted to the spot with fear.He broke out into a cold sweat. He rushed over to Sean and fell on his knees. "Mr. Lakeworth, forgive me! This is gross negligence on my part, and I should have believed what you said! Please give me a chance! I was wrong! I know I was wr
"Sean, are you really the holder of the black gold card?"On their way to the Sun Garden Hotel, Layla looked at Sean in awe. He was the representative of Skye City, and now he was also the holder of a black gold card.Sean's identity was clearly beyond what she had ever imagined!After all, in the
Layla's heart fluttered.She hadn't expected Sean to say that.Her lips pressed together slightly as she looked at him. "Thank you, Sean."He smiled gently.Then he seemed to think of something and asked, "Oh right, Dr. Turner. You said that if I went to the reunion with you, then you would tell me
"Quickly, hold your breaths and hide your presence!" Amelia instructed in a low voice.Everyone suppressed their breaths and hid in the bushes.In the sky, a swoosh echoed, and tracking waves radiated through the air. Upon failing to detect the presence of any vital energy, they quickly left.After
"What? Did you say that Grandma and the others are here?" Selene's heart skipped a beat."Yes! Hide yourself!" Sean said urgently.Suddenly, they heard a swoosh, and before they could move a muscle, the sounds of wind breaking resounded in the forest. The strongest presence amongst them had already
"First time?" Startled, Sean then realized what she was speaking about and chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, it was. What's the matter?""That explains it." Selene had a confident look on her face, as if she were now sure of something. "What do you mean?" Sean asked, puzzled."That explains why there's su
"Would you like to expose Zephyr's scheme?" Sean asked in a deep voice when he saw the iciness in Selene's eyes."Yes." Selene nodded. The disgust she held for Zephyr was undisguised in her tone."The Ten Great Families are still in the dark; even if both of us combine forces, we're far from being Z
