Luna was moved by Axel’s words. First of all, Axel’s words made sense. Second of all, she was in need of funding for the project, even more so when a few of her friends had either rejected her or were unable to help her. If she missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to proceed with the project. “Luna, why are you still hesitating?” Axel stood on his feet with a dash of impatience on his face. “I’m telling you this out of goodwill and you… Forget it.” He then headed towards the exit. “Wait!” Luna fell for the temptation in the end. She said, “Axel, thank you. I’ll go prepare the funds. Please help me process the necessary documents and procedures.” “Alright!” A hint of viciousness flashed in Axel’s eyes. As a matter of fact, the Cloverfields had lost almost all their money and would be announcing their bankruptcy in a few days. As for being listed publicly, it was impossible. His father told him to borrow some money from his friends or whoever and get r
Andrius frowned. “Frank, listen to me. Do not buy the shares from the Cloverfields.” He had just met Marcus, the mayor. The Cloverfields had sustained a major loss and had filed for bankruptcy. How could they get publicly listed while facing a devastating financial crisis? They were trying to cheat people’s money and flee the city! Fatty Frank was discouraged. “Boss, why?” Andrius explained, “The Cloverfields are going bankrupt soon, so this is just a trap. They intentionally leaked the news and let people think this is a great opportunity. When they get the money, they will flee the city.” “That’s impossible!” Fatty Frank confidently explained, “The Cloverfields are doing great! They even went on national television a few years ago, and their businesses are doing well! How can they be facing bankruptcy?” Andrius could not be bothered to explain further. He simply said, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you.” Fatty Frank hesitated. He admired Andrius who was the best fight
Halle knew that Andrius must have insider news on the matter, so she called him. “Andrius, Luna is going to buy the Cloverfields’ company shares. She told me you said that the Cloverfields can’t even save themselves. Are you serious?” “Of course.” Andrius sounded firm. “I got the news from Marcus. The company has been losing money for a while now. They are planning to get whatever money they can and leave the city.” Halle believed him. The mayor, Marcus, was Andrius’ ex-subordinate, so it was impossible for him to make such a low mistake. If Andrius said the Cloverfields would be over soon, they would be over soon. Anxious, Halle asked, “Then, what should we do? Luna insists on buying the shares, I tried talking to her, but it didn’t work.” “We’ll cross the bridge when we come to it.” Andrius was helpless as well. He made it clear to Luna, yet she insisted on jumping into the trap. What else could he do about it? The night went by quietly. The next day, while Andriu
“Get out of my face!” Rainbow lost her patience, but her shout did not startle or frighten the gangster. Instead, it piqued his interest even more. “Feisty! I like a feisty girl.” He sized Rainbow up with an invasive gaze. If he could get her in his bed, they would have wild sex tonight. “Babe, I have never heard of a woman not spreading her legs for money. It’s not enough, is it?”Before Rainbow could say anything, the gangster pulled out another stack of bills from his car. “Twenty grand, enough? It’s considered quite high around here. With this price, I can get myself a lesser-known fashion model.” Rainbow glanced at her watch. The person who should be picking her up was not in sight yet, and she was being annoyed by the gangster, so she was forced to move away from the spot. As she dragged her luggage away with her, the gangster stopped her once more. “Come on, babe. Don’t go. Twenty grand ain’t enough? Damn, girl, you’ve got a big appetite. Okay, how about fifty gra
The gangster grinned wickedly when he sensed how weak Garren was. “Classmate? You better f*ck off before I f*ck you up. Do you know who I am?” Garren was frightened. He asked timidly, “W-who are you?” “I’m in the Empire.” As the gangster grinned, the flaps on his cheeks widened, making him look vicious. He raised his arm to display the dragon tattoo on it and said, “See this? They call me Dragon.” “Y-you are Dragon of the Empire?” Garren was frightened, and even his voice trembled.Dragon of the Empire was a man with a notorious reputation. He had a hundred men under his command. He would either bring his men out to cause problems or stay at the club, the Empire, to fool around with women. There was once when a few drunkards caused a scene at the Empire, and on the next day, they were all murdered, dismembered, and tossed into the river. “Now you know who I am, get the hell out of my face, or do you want me to f*ck you up?” Dragon said with a grin. Garren’s expression sh
Garren wanted to reason with Andrius, but when he saw Dragon and his men, he lost his courage. He quickly fled back to his car before Dragon could notice him. He stayed in the car and observed what would happen next. “Punk.” Dragon stared at Andrius viciously. He grinned to show his terrible and yellowish teeth and bellowed, “We meet again so soon.” Andrius grunted. “A good dog won’t obstruct the way.” “You piece of sh*t! You're making things worse for you and you’re asking for it!” Dragon was infuriated. He roared, “Get him and rip him to pieces!” As soon as his voice subsided, his men jumped on him. The intimidating scene shocked Rainbow. Andrius pulled her behind him and said to her, “Stay here. Don’t move. They won’t be able to hurt you.” He was ready for a fight, but then a unified march approached them. Andrius looked in that direction and saw a battalion of soldiers, armed with loaded guns. Dragon’s men were stunned and petrified on the spot. Some of them tried t
What was going on? Was Andrius having lunch with a general? It seemed like the general treated him with respect and courtesy as well. Was Rainbow mistaken? She could not believe her eyes, so she rubbed them, but she heard Andrius saying, “Stop rubbing your eyes. You are not hallucinating.” Rainbow looked excited and awkward at the same time. “You, me. I… You…” “What?” Andrius pointed at Noir and introduced him, “He’s Noir.” Andrius then explained, “This is Rainbow Conery, Luna’s cousin. She’s here to study, and she seems to be a military otaku.” “Hi! Hi! Nice to meet you!” When Noir heard Rainbow was a military otaku, he got up and saluted her formally before he stretched his hand out for a handshake. Rainbow was thrilled. She shook his hand lightly because her hand was shaking. “Join us.” Noir pulled the chair beside Andrius and signaled Rainbow to sit down. Rainbow was flattered. She looked at Noir excitedly, “I… Can I really sit down and have lunch with you?”
A pair of fair and long legs stepped out of the car. The woman then walked over to Andrius with a soft smile. It was Suletta, the granddaughter of the old man that Andrius had saved the other day. The old man was Anthony Henderson, the richest man in Sumeria. When Suletta saw Andrius doing laborious work and moving luggage around, she was shocked. “Mr. Moonshade, thank you for saving my grandfather yesterday. If not for you, my grandfather might not have made it.” Andrius recognized her, but since he was in the middle of moving Rainbow’s luggage, he simply hummed a reply and did not extend the conversation. “Mr. Moonshade, you’ve done our family a great deed by saving my grandfather! Tell me how we should reward you.” Suletta somehow looked proud when she made the offer. Whatever Andrius requested, the Hendersons could make it happen. Andrius said, “It’s a doctor’s duty to save people. If you really want to thank me, a simple ‘thank you’ is more than enough.” Sulette
