The people in The Serpents were filled with fear when they heard about Mateo's death. Even though they were no longer in Fabio's territory, they did not know about Joaqin's whereabouts, and there was no one to lead them now. Soon, Fabio sent someone over and took some of them back while the rest of them went into hiding. There were not many people left in The Serpents, and they were on the verge of disbanding.Meanwhile, in the hospital…Mateo’s men had all gathered in Joaqin’s ward. When Joaqin heard of Mateo’s death, he was filled with grief and hated himself for being powerless.Cameron and her men appeared in front of the ward, and the crowd in the ward all turned their heads to look at her.She stopped in front of Joaqin’s bed and said, “My father said he’ll give you an explanation regarding Mateo’s death.”Joaqin did not say anything, but the people in the ward were agitated. “Explanation? What kind of explanation? Mr. Southern Sr. said that he’d help us, but what happened
Mahina shook her head as she did not know anything either.The two walked out of the hospital and came to the front of the car. Cameron had just opened the door and got into the car when she saw another person in the rear seat and was startled. “Why are you here?”Waylon leaned against the car window with his hand propped against the side of his forehead and turned to look at her. “Donald is at the casino investigating the identity of the woman who revealed Andrei’s identity.”Cameron closed the car door, raised her eyebrows, and looked at him. “Are you worried about me?”He looked away and did not utter a single word.Mahina took a peek in the rearview mirror as she drove them away from the scene. ‘The young master and the eldest son of the Goldmanns really make a great couple.’She suddenly thought of why such gossip about the two of them would spread around. Anyone who saw the two of them together would most probably think so too.Cameron noticed her fixed gaze and patted
Donald turned around, walked behind the desk, sat down in the director's chair, and tapped his fingers against the table. “What about Neal Beck? Haven’t we sent someone to keep an eye on him?”“About this...” Chunky lowered his head. “That person hasn’t come back yet, and I’ve failed to get into contact with him.”All the items on the desk were instantly swept to the ground—the most direct eruption of emotions occurred without warning.Chunky did not dare to say a word. He did not even dare to breathe.His expression looked gloomy and sulky. “That useless piece of sh*t! It seems he’s been discovered.”“Even if he’s been discovered, no one will ever suspect you.”“Oh, really?” Donald glared at him. “Manuel has been exposed, and the Southern Clan knows that he and I are connected because of the account book, and it’s just a matter of time for them to start to suspect me.”Chunky was at a loss for words.Donald rubbed the bridge of his nose and leaned back into the chair. “That wo
‘Besides, do you really think he’ll be able to accept this sudden news?’Cameron crossed her arms and did not say anything.Sunny said earnestly, “Your Uncle Damian is just asking you to go and meet the girl, so just go. Moreover, the girl might not even like you, so just take it as a facade you have to play.”She turned around, walked to the door, stopped, turned around, and smirked. “Okay, I’ll go, but just in case I take a fancy to her, you’ll be the one who marries her since I don’t mind having a stepmother at my age.”“Get out!”At the same time as the book was thrown at her, Cameron quickly dashed out of the door, and the book could only hit the door.Sunny rubbed his forehead, which was throbbing.‘Why are everyone else’s daughters cute and graceful princesses, while mine is like a goon on the streets? All she knows is to piss me off.’…As night approached, the yellow street lamps lit up. The lights in the clubhouse flashed beautifully, creating an illusion of a linger
“Nice, that’s a very interesting name.” Buchanon nodded and poured her more liquor. “Since you claimed that you’re good at drinking, then accompany me to drink. As long as you can keep me entertained and delighted for the night, you’ll definitely get a huge tip at the end of today.”An imperceptible coldness surged from the bottom of Yanis’ eyes. “It’s my pleasure to be able to serve you tonight.”In the room, Buchanon had drunk several glasses of liquor in succession, and his cheeks were slightly flushed at the moment. He had been very grumpy all night and had been drinking in a hurry, so he was already almost completely drunk.Yanis’ expression remained unchanged. She took a glimpse at him through a sideways glance and saw that he was almost drunk, so she put down her glass. “Sir, do you have something on your mind? I wonder if I’ll be honored enough to be your listener for the night?”Buchanon had suppressed his dissatisfaction for a very long time and had drunk so much over the
Nollace sat in front of the laptop and started to decipher the folder using hacking tools. After half an hour, he finally cracked the password of the folder. He then skimmed through all the documents found inside the folder and narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw something.After a while, he took out the USB flash drive, turned off the laptop, got up, and left the room.Jake drove to the hotel’s parking lot and waited. Nollace took off his wig and got into the car.Jake took a glance in the rearview mirror.‘Jesus Christ! This man still looks so good even when he is dressing up as a woman. I guess he’s the one person in the world who can achieve this.’“You shouldn’t have exposed yourself, right?”Nollace rubbed off the makeup on his face. “He’s so drunk that even if he recalls what happened tonight, he may not remember who the lady is.”Jake drove away from the hotel. “Fabio assigned some of the management rights of the Parkin Chamber of Commerce to its branches. Buchanon mu
Daisie moved away. “You can’t hug me if you don’t explain.”Nollace was troubled because he didn’t know how to explain. There was a knock on the door, and Jake’s voice came from behind the door. “Mr. Beck, your bag of clothes was left in the car.”Nollce placed his hand on his forehead and walked to the door to get the bag from Jake. “Thanks.”After the door closed, Daisie took her bag and was going to leave when Nollace blocked the doorway. She mumbled, “Please move. I’m leaving.”Nollace was amused. “You’re really angry?”“I came to see you, but you treated me this way. You’ve changed, you *sshole.” She pushed him away and then grabbed the door handle, but Nollace handed the bag to her. “Do you want to take a look?”She turned back. “What’s that?”She took the bag and opened it. It was women’s clothes, a wig, perfume, and makeup.Daisie picked up the bottle of perfume and sniffed at it. It was the one on Nollace. She figured it out and looked at him in shock. “Are you… Ar
Sunny smiled. “It’s interesting to think that two girls are on a blind date.”Waylon looked back at the tea in his cup and smiled. “What will happen if the girl likes her?”Sunny waved his hand. “Don’t worry. It’s probably going to fail because of that outfit.”Waylon ran his finger over the brim of the cup and didn’t speak. Cameron waited there for a while until the door was opened, and a lady walked in. She wasn’t the prettiest, but she looked classy. The woman smiled. “Are you Mr. Southern?”Cameron crossed her fingers and rested her chin on them. “I am. Are you Minzy that Uncle Damian tried to introduce to me?” Minzy sat down and placed her bag on her side. “I’ve heard about you, but I imagined you differently.”Cameron smiled. “I get that a lot.” She pushed her hair back and leaned back on her chair. “It’s probably because I’m so hot.”Minzy looked uneasy but still had a smile on. “You’re so humorous.”Once the food was served, Cameron picked up her cutlery and went s
