Tanner placed the five-figure watch on the table. It was exquisite!

"Oh my god, it’s a Patek Philippe. This watch costs a hundred thousand dollars, enough to buy a luxury car. I can’t even imagine having something that expensive!" Jenny exclaimed in envy.

"Did you see that? My boyfriend's watch is worth five figures. Do you still doubt his capabilities?" May said arrogantly.

Why was Elio picking fights all over the place? He was hopeless! Evelyn looked at Elio angrily and scolded, "Can you keep your mouth shut for once?"

Elio appeased his angry wife with a smile. "Don’t worry, it's just a bet to lighten the mood. I’ll raise the stakes." He raised his arm, took off his watch, and placed it in front of him as well.

May glanced at the watch with its strange design and snorted. "I bet you bought that watch from a street stall, right? It's worth twenty dollars at most. So much for matching the stakes! I’d say you’re taking advantage of the wager."

Her best friend really misunderstood

    “Fine, I accept your watch as your wager," Tanner declared.Elio smirked. "Unfortunately, your watch is the one that isn’t up to par. Considering the difference in value, I’d be at a disadvantage if I accepted the bet like this.”Jenny and May looked at each other. Elio was really arrogant. How could he say that Patek Philippe was not good enough? He was out of his mind!"Don’t act like you’re so great! I know you’re Yvonne’s little boy toy. How shameless must you be to show off the watch that woman bought for you?" May was about to go crazy with envy and hatred.Elio frowned. "Watch your mouth and stop spouting nonsense. I can walk with my head held high, it's none of your business who bought me the watch. If you can afford to match the stakes, then do it. If you can't, then forget it. Don't slander me."Tanner's face darkened. He pushed his car keys forward and said coldly, "There's nothing I can't afford. The Patek Philippe watch and a Mercedes G63 worth over two hundred thousa

    Back in the private room, Tanner was livid. He drained his glass of red wine and slammed it onto the table. "Bastard, just you wait! I'll teach you to challenge me!"May hurriedly comforted him. "Honey, don't lower yourself to his level. Once you land the project, just make him fulfill his promise."Jenny giggled. "Exactly! I can’t wait to make him run around Cloudsea Square naked. It’ll be the talk of the town!”Meanwhile, the BMW X5 was speeding along the street. Evelyn's face was dark with rage. "It's all your fault. Mr. Foster wanted to collaborate with my advertising company! He has a huge project to rebuild the slums, but now his offer might fall through because of you!”"Can't you tell that he has ulterior motives?" Elio frowned. A man's intuition was very accurate. He would not allow anyone to covet his wife."Business is business. I don't care what his motives are, but your actions have affected my company's interests! I told you not to come over, but you never listen." E

    “Yes, that's exactly it. Looks like we feel the same way." Elio muttered almost to himself, "Evelyn has always been so cold to me, like an iceberg that will never melt. However, I just can't let go of her. It’s so strange."Sunny listened quietly, finding it difficult to understand. Why didn’t Evelyn cherish Elio? Her boss was the best man in the world!"I don’t think you should worry too much, sir. The madam was just confused for a moment. I’m sure she’ll come to understand you in time.”His assistant’s gentle words of comfort lightened Elio's mood considerably. He finally managed to smile again. "I hope so. Ahh, let’s leave it up to fate and not think too much about it. Sorry to make you come all the way here in the middle of the night. Why don’t I treat you to supper to return the favor?"Sunny blushed. "It’s the least I should do. There’s no need to thank me. I’ll always be here when you need me."Elio was very touched by her simple words. He nodded with a smile and pointed at

    How could Elio let these insolent fools off so easily? He grabbed the thin man's hand with a vice-like grip before dislocating the man’s wrist.The thin man cried out in pain, his face contorted as he fell back. The burly man and the others were all shocked by Elio’s ruthlessness. The next second, they cursed and rushed at him in unison."Everyone, we gotta teach that insolent punk a lesson!”"Beat his teeth out! Let’s all get him together!"These spoilsports had completely ruined the nice mood they had going at the barbeque. Elio frowned and lunged at the crowd, kicking the burly man in the lead.The burly man cried out in pain, falling onto a table behind him. The table crashed to the ground, and two of the man’s ribs were broken. He grimaced in pain.The other ruffians were equally unlucky. Elio beat them to the ground in no time at all, leaving them bruised or injured. All of them groaned in pain.Elio looked at them coldly. "Get lost, or I'll kill you.""Shut your mouth, p

    Stunned, Fatso cried out, "Bryson, why did you hit me?""Shut up!" Bryson roared, shutting Fatso up. The latter could not understand what was going on.The onlookers were also stunned. What happened? Why would Bryson slap Fatso? Shouldn't he have attacked the kid instead?Bryson approached Elio and bowed to him, saying in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Master Rinz. I didn't know it was you. My foolish subordinates offended you, and for that, they deserve to die. You can punish them however you want."Everyone was flabbergasted. Bryson ruled over swathes of Southshire with a machete, yet here he was kowtowing to a young man! What was going on?Only Bryson himself knew that Elio was the devil incarnate. If he dared to offend him, he would probably end up in a worse state than Tiger. In order to maintain all his limbs, he did not dare to disrespect Elio for even a second. Elio smiled and nodded. "A wise man knows when to lower his head. Not bad. Have a drink on me. Excuse me, another lar

    Fatso and the others knelt outside the barbecue shop for the entire night. When the sun came up, they struggled to get up, but all of them fell without exception. Their legs were jelly, and they took ages to get up. Ignoring the whispering onlookers, they hurriedly got into their car and left.The next morning, Elio specially put on a snow-white shirt, a smart pair of trousers, and branded leather shoes. He brought Sunny and Ron to the signing ceremony, where they would officially take charge of the Cloudsea shanty town renovation project.The participants at the ceremony were all heavyweights. Other than the official representatives, there was also the chairman of the Xever Group, Shaw Maine. Uncle Shaw was the guarantor, so he would take joint responsibility if the Evamor Group could not complete the project on time or up to the required standards.Elio wore sunglasses the entire time, hiding his identity. Ron signed the deal as the representative of the Evamor Group. After the ce

    When Evelyn thought about what happened, she was so mad she could hardly speak. Her face was icy with anger as she said, "I can't believe you have the guts to bring that up. Just yesterday, Mr. Foster said he'd work with us on a huge project, but you ruined everything. Mom's right to call you bad luck; you're always messing things up."Elio just smirked and said, "You really think he was being nice? He just wanted to get to know you better. And anyway, that project's already been taken care of, and it's got nothing to do with Luxe Land Properties."Evelyn's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you just making this up? That can't be true.""It's the honest truth. My boss, the big boss of Evamor Group, and my best friend got the project. I'm here to help you two work together. Opportunities like this don't come around twice, so think about it," Elio said, trying to sound serious."Is that for real?" Evelyn's heart skipped a beat. That was a golden chance for Skybound Advertising. The proje

    Oh no, Elio thought to himself, sneaking a peek at his wife. Yvonne was talking so loud without a care; Evelyn definitely heard her!Just as he feared, Evelyn looked at him like she could see right through him. The smile on her pretty face was gone, replaced by a look so icy it could freeze him solid. She looked like she wanted to kick him right out of the car.He had a beautiful wife at home, and yet he was out causing trouble. This was really bad!"Why are you telling me this?" Elio asked, his voice full of worry."Aren't you coming to check on me? What's keeping you so busy? It's been so hard even to see you," Yvonne complained. It had been days since they last saw each other at the Orchid Harmony Club."We'll talk later when I'm not so busy. I've got to go now," Elio said quickly, afraid she might say something else embarrassing, and hung up the phone."Well, I'm done waiting for you. Hurry up, don't waste any more time. I'll drive you there," Evelyn said with an icy tone."

    "What?" Charlie's anger boiled over, his face turning bright red as he yelled, "This is too much! I want to see your chairman! He needs to apologize, or he'll regret it when I trash this place!"Laird gave a cold snort, grabbed the ready walkie-talkie, and called out, "Security, get in here, quick! We've got someone trying to wreck the place."In a flash, four security guards in black suits rushed into the room, grabbed Charlie, and marched him right out the door.The poor Jones family heir thought he could throw his weight around, but instead, he got a beating from the guards and ended up tossed outside, his suit torn and his face a mess of bruises.He tried to get up, wanting to shout insults, but the angry stares from the guards scared him silent. He scrambled into his Audi and sped away.Afterward, General Manager Howe filled in the chairman on what had happened. Elio could not help but feel a rush of glee.

    That night, the news about the Aerin Group taking on the shanty town makeover project was all over the Cloudsea TV show. It shook up the whole business world in the city. Bosses from real estate and construction companies were all on the phone, trying to get the scoop.The Aerin Group was pretty new and not well-known in Cloudsea. Now, all of a sudden, it was the talk of the town. The big project that everyone wanted had somehow ended up with them, and it was really weird.The project to fix up the old town was massive, and lots of companies wanted to work on it. If they got even a piece of the job, they would be rolling in dough. So, they all rushed to make connections, hoping to meet with the big boss of Evamor Group to talk business.What surprised all the big shots was that nobody knew a thing about the boss of Evamor. It was like a big secret. Clearly, that person liked staying out of the spotlight, pulling strings from behind the curtain.Who would have guessed that this amaz

    York nodded non-stop, apologizing. "Got it. Please forgive me. I'm really sorry."With the bill canceled, Elio felt they had done enough. "Let's call it even. Time to go."They walked out, heads high, leaving the staff and the hostesses in awe. York sat on the couch, face grim, and gulped down the fake Louis XIII. It was liquor from some other brand, cleverly resealed to look like the fancy stuff. It tasted pretty good, and hardly anyone could tell it was not the real deal. However, somehow, that kid figured it out. Who was he, anyway?York was fuming. Ever since his shop opened, he had sold bottle after bottle of this top-notch liquor to all sorts of important people, and no one had ever called him out. Now, some nobody had caught him."That little troublemaker, causing a scene in my shop," he grumbled. "Just you wait. I'll take care of you."As the boss was getting worked up and ready to get even, one of the girls spoke up, "That Mr. Rinz seems pretty impressive. I heard he even

    York asked with a friendly smile, "I don't think I've met this young man before. Can someone introduce him?"Yvonne replied with a grin, "This is Mr. Rinz, a dear friend of ours. He's the one who wanted to meet you."York did not know Elio's story, and he looked like an average guy. However, he had ordered three bottles of the fancy Louis XIII cognac and seemed to be friends with some pretty important people, including a famous TV beauty. York could not help but be impressed."Really? I'm super honored and happy to meet you, Mr. Rinz. Hope you'll come to hang out with us more," York said with a big smile. He's the kind of guy who knew just what to say and was ready to shake hands, showing lots of respect. However, Elio did not reach out his hand at all, which made York's smile disappear, and he felt really annoyed inside.Elio just frowned and said, "I think once is enough for this place." Yvonne and the others exchanged puzzled looks. They had no clue why Elio was upset and wh

    "You think you can hit me and get away with it? I could ruin your family in an instant. Now, get out of here, do you hear me?" Tanner yelled at her."You..." Fear flickered in May's eyes. She was too scared to argue, worried about what he might do to her.Jenny let out a sigh, went over to help her friend up, and whispered, "Let's just go. We can't stand up to him. We've just got to deal with this bad luck."May knew the truth. She and Jenny might come from money, but they were nothing compared to Tanner's powerful family. What could she do? If she pushed him too far, she was afraid he might make her disappear for good.May had no choice but to follow her best friend, looking all messy and upset. She did not think she would end up like that, feeling so angry. She was mad at Tanner for messing with her feelings and even madder at Elio, thinking he had a big part in her troubles.The room was super quiet; no one wanted to talk. Tanner was in a bad mood—he got tricked by someone not

    As Evelyn's figure vanished from view, May frowned deeply and sneered, "She's so hopeless. She can't even handle her husband. Being a woman like that is just embarrassing.""Come on, don't be so hard on her," Jenny said. "Evelyn's got guts. She was ready to divorce Elio to stand up for what's right. Friends like her are rare.""Hmph, what good does that do? She still didn't get the stuff back. I really thought she could handle that jerk, but it was a waste," May said, not hiding her scorn."May, just a heads-up," Jenny lowered her voice, "the divorce might be good for Evelyn, but it puts you at risk. I've noticed Tanner looking her way a lot. Be careful."May felt a chill, sensing trouble, but she pushed back, "No way. Tanner told me he only loves me. You're just worrying too much."Jenny could tell what her best friend was thinking but kept it to herself. "Okay, let's just say I didn't mention anything. Let's head back."In the private room, Tanner was eager to hear the news. Wh

    Jenny and May were shocked, staring at each other and not knowing what to do.The couple was at a breaking point. May felt a rush of panic. Did that mean she would never get back the fancy watch and the big Benz? She quickly pulled on Evelyn's arm, trying to tell her friend not to say things she could not take back. However, it was too late."That's for the best," Evelyn snapped. "From now on, we're nothing to each other.""Let's just hope we're both happy from here on out," Elio said, trying to sound indifferent. However, inside, it felt like a thousand needles were poking his heart.Evelyn did not look back. She turned and walked away fast, a cold air swirling around her.Jenny and May ran after her, calling out, "Evelyn, wait up!""Don't leave, wait for us!"Evelyn felt a heavy sadness. They had been married for three years, together every day. To say she felt nothing would be a lie. Even though she never really respected Elio, going their separate ways was still hard to take

    The Seven Fairies Team was a tough bunch, and except for Helen, each one had fought their way to success in the cutthroat world of business. They were not about to let anyone push them around.With a loud "smack," Jenny's cheek stung from a fierce slap. She let out a sharp cry and glared at Yvonne. "Ouch! How dare you hit me?""You insult us, and you think a slap is too much?" Yvonne spat back, her teeth clenched in anger.May was not lucky, either. She, too, got slapped, leaving a bright red mark on her face. Lydia, who did it, shouted at her, "Who are you calling names, huh?"Jenny and May were no pushovers, but now, with their cheeks burning from the slaps and surrounded by a group of fierce-looking girls, they were boiling with rage inside. Yet, they did not dare to strike back, appearing utterly defeated and powerless.It was not the super-tough opponents they needed to worry about. It was the teammates who messed everything up!Evelyn had been sure she could get back those

    The women finally got it—the beautiful woman was Elio's wife. Yarely and the others stood up for a better look.A bunch of girls with eyes as wide as saucers were watching everything unfold, each one silently agreeing that Evelyn was the picture of perfection. It was no surprise that Master Rinz could keep his cool, even with all those stunning girls around him.Evelyn scanned the room, and it hit her—they were all gorgeous girls, and Elio was the only boy. It was just like the old saying: he was the lone rooster in the henhouse.When Yvonne tried to be friendly, Evelyn was not having any of it. She huffed, "Forget it. I just need to talk to Elio about something private. I'll be out of your hair in no time."That made Evelyn seem super stuck-up and hard to talk to. Yarely and the others felt put off, so they just sat back down on the couch.They were all tough cookies, top dogs in their own right.
