"Why are they waiting for me?" Timothy asked."The Reginald family said they received some information and want to tell you in person," Zack replied.Timothy raised an eyebrow. He hadn't planned on going, but Zack's words piqued his curiosity.Suddenly, his phone rang. When Timothy saw the caller ID, he couldn't help but smile and answered with a grin, "Hey, Darling. What's up?"On the other end, Mavis felt a shiver run down her spine. She pouted and chastised, "Can you talk like a normal person? Do you always have to sound so sleazy?""How am I sleazy? We're engaged, which means we're basically married. I think calling you 'Darling' is perfectly acceptable, isn't it?""No, it isn't! We're just engaged and not married yet. If you want to get married, you'll need to earn ten billion dollars first. Also, let me remind you that a few days have passed from the agreed date whereby you promised to earn 100 million dollars. How much have you made so far?"Timothy yawned lazily. "Making
"Welcome, Mr. Yeager!" Timothy glanced around stoically and waved his hand. "Get up, all of you. Who's in charge here?"A middle-aged man with a buzz cut and dressed in a luxurious suit stepped forward. He greeted Timothy respectfully, "Mr. Yeager, I'm Calvin Reginald, the current head of the family. If you have any orders, just let me know."Timothy nodded. "I heard you have something to tell me. What is it?"Calvin turned and signaled to several bodyguards dressed in black. In the next moment, the guards dragged out a man whose face was covered in blood."Mr. Yeager, this man was the intermediary between the Reginald family and Norgon. So, he has information about Norgon," Calvin reported.Timothy narrowed his eyes. A wave of chilling pressure radiated from him and enveloped the man.The man trembled violently and collapsed to the ground. He felt as if he had been plunged into a freezing abyss. His breathing became labored, and it seemed like his body was about to give out
Timothy turned his head and saw Cassian behind him. Cassian was dressed in a white casual suit. His hair was neatly styled, and he wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His features were sharp and handsome, and he held a champagne glass in his hand with a smile.Timothy glanced at Cassian and took in the insincere smile on his face. He smiled back mockingly and said, "Why… If it isn't Mr. Kramer? What's the matter? Do you need something from me?"Cassian scrutinized Timothy from head to toe and frowned slightly. Timothy's cheap outfit was completely out of place there. Moreover, what was he even doing here?Although Cassian regarded Timothy with disdain, he kept a polite smile on his face. "Timothy, there's an important event here today. People who have no business here aren't allowed to enter."Timothy scratched his head and grinned. "Sorry, but I'm not just anyone. My wife is here, and she asked me to come."With that, Timothy didn't even look back and strode confidently toward
Mavis felt an overwhelming urge to cry. She shouldn't have asked Timothy to come over. She glanced at his dirty coat, torn jeans, and the expression on his face, which only magnified her exasperationMany of the guests present also noticed Timothy, and without exception, they all frowned slightly. Although they didn't say anything, their eyes showed obvious disdain. Mavis' face turned bright red with embarrassment. She wished she could hide herself in a hole.Just then, a gentlemanly figure holding a glass of champagne walked over elegantly. Cassian had a polite smile on his face as he said, "Mavis, I had been busy downstairs and didn't have a chance to greet you. It's only been a few days since I last saw you, but you've become even more beautiful since then." Mavis smiled slightly and replied, "You're too kind, Mr. Kramer. There are plenty of ladies here today far more beautiful than me. It's young and talented people like you who are truly rare." A proud smile stretched
Mavis noticed Isabelle approaching too, which caused her to frown.The scene of Isabelle mocking and humiliating her in the courtyard that day was still vivid in her mind. Moreover, there had always been disputes among the prominent families.She and Isabelle had never gotten along, and she couldn't figure out what Isabelle wanted now.While Mavis was deep in thought, Isabelle had already strutted over in her high heels. She was dressed in a diamond-embellished hollowed-out strap dress that left her shoulders bare. Her long, wavy hair cascaded over her shoulders, and she carried a white handbag. From head to toe, she exuded a distinguished elegance.Mavis' frown deepened. As their gazes met, a subtle tension seemed to fill the air.Mavis stayed silent, while Isabelle's beautiful eyes sparkled. She smiled warmly and greeted, "Ms. Jefferson, how have you been lately?"Mavis smiled slightly and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Ms. Barton. I've been doing very well."Isabelle
Timothy casually lit a cigarette. After a moment of silence, he smiled faintly and comforted Mavis. "Don't be so pessimistic. The outcome hasn't been decided yet. Don't worry. I have a feeling that this order will be yours."Mavis was stunned and looked at Timothy skeptically. "Why do you say that?"Timothy grinned cheekily and replied, "It is because your husband is blessed with good luck. If I say this order will be yours, it will definitely be yours."Mavis rolled her eyes. She had thought Timothy would say something of some value, but it turned out to be another instance of his unfounded rambling.She sighed softly, feeling a bit sorrowful inside. Other women found reliable men who could lend a hand when they were in trouble. But why did she end up with someone like him?While Mavis was lost in thought and dismayed, she didn't notice some "waiters" gradually closing in around her.But of course, their subtle movements didn't go unnoticed by Timothy.In recent years, Timothy
The man who kicked Timothy's leg felt as if he had kicked a steel beam. Timothy remained unfazed and unaffected. He, on the other hand, was in excruciating pain!The two men immediately sensed that something was wrong. Just then, a sinister laugh rang out."Having fun?"Their hearts missed a beat as they turned to look at Timothy, only to meet his cold and piercing gaze. They instantly felt an ominous sense of danger and tried to retreat, but Timothy's hands shot out like a vice and grabbed both of them by the throats. He lifted them up and smashed them onto the table full of wine and various food.The table was overturned, and the sound of bottles and dishes shattering rang out as the floor was instantly covered in broken glass and tableware. The loud noise immediately drew the attention of most people in the hall. Many pairs of eyes turned toward the commotion.The rest of Cassian's men exchanged glances, stunned by the scene before them. None of them had expected Timothy to
The woman who arrived was none other than Hannah Simpson, Zack's secretary. She was one of the highest-ranking figures in the Lormford Chamber of Commerce, second only to Zack himself.When Mavis saw Hannah's arrival, her expression turned into one of fright. She quickly pushed through the crowd and hurried over to Timothy. "You should leave now!" she whispered urgently.Timothy glanced at Mavis, confused. "Why should I leave?"Mavis was so anxious that she stomped her foot. "Don't ask so many questions! Just go when I tell you to! "Hannah is the secretary to the president of the Lormford Chamber of Commerce. She has an odd temper and can't tolerate the slightest flaw. Since you made such a mess here, she'll definitely come after you!"Timothy snorted coldly. "I wasn't the one causing trouble, so why would she come after me? I'm not leaving. I'd like to see what she'd do to me.""Timothy!" Mavis' chest heaved up and down out of sheer anger. She bit her lip and was almost on th
Timothy remained silent and enjoyed the show. Cecilia knelt and looked up with a sensuous gaze. She bit her red lip and asked, "Master, do you want me?"Timothy's expression was one of amusement, and his emotions remained inscrutable to Cecilia. She slowly reached out and touched Timothy's belt. As she observed the changes before her, her eyes were filled with shock. She gasped subtly, swallowing hard. The comparison between Leon and Timothy was like night and day.Her cheeks flushed as she looked up at Timothy, her eyes full of astonishment. It wasn't for any reason other than the fact that Timothy was… simply too overwhelming. She had dated several guys and had seen plenty, but none could compare to Timothy. Her hands trembled as she tried to undo his belt. Her throat felt dry, and she licked her lips nervously. She made a few attempts but ultimately failed. A light sheen of sweat formed on her face.Timothy continued to watch her, feeling amused as she knelt in front of him
"Time to die." A whisper, like the voice of death, echoed in Leon's ear. Just as he was about to speak, Timothy's hand moved in front of him—a simple, light swipe.Leon's body froze instantly. Seconds later, his lifeless body collapsed to the floor. Cecilia looked at Leon's body and let out a hysterical scream. Leon's face was gone—his entire face was gone! Where his face used to be was now a flat, bone-smooth surface, as if it had been cut by a saw. The cut was so clean and smooth that it looked terrifyingly unreal. It was a gruesome sight.Cecilia had never witnessed something so horrifying. After her scream, her voice was caught in her throat as fear consumed her. Her stomach churned, and she couldn't hold back as she vomited. She slid down to the floor, looking disheveled. She looked at Timothy with tears welling up in her eyes. Her face was absolutely pale as she sobbed, shaking like a leaf. "Please… Please spare me… I'm begging you…"Timothy's eyes darkened, a bloodt
Leon's expression was twisted in anger as he shouted, "Did you think I'm powerless against the likes of you? Raise your hands and get on your knees!"Timothy wasn't the least bit surprised. He stared at Leon with deep, intense eyes. "Put the gun down. I don't like being aimed at."Leon cocked the gun and loaded it with a click. His finger rested on the trigger as he sneered. "You're still acting tough at a time like this. I'll admit that you're gutsy, but you must die here today."Timothy shook his head with a regretful expression. "I told you I don't like being aimed at. Put the gun down. If I'm in a good mood, I might spare your life. But if you don't put it down in three seconds, I'll have no choice but to send you to hell.""Send me to hell? You don't have what it takes! I've been with Blackgeld for years. I've seen it all," Leon responded.Timothy's expression shifted as he asked, "Has someone in Blackgeld been planning to kidnap Mavis Jefferson, the CEO of Jefferson Group, l
Leon laughed heartily and reached out to grope Cecilia's ample bosom. She let out a soft moan, squeezing her legs together instinctively as arousal traveled up her body. She wrapped herself around Leon like a snake, her eyes seductive as she bit her lip.She whispered, "Leon, I want it again. Come and give it to me."Leon's eyes became bloodshot. "Oh, you little vixen. It seems like you're not satiated yet. I'll make sure you get more than you bargained for today!" He flipped over, positioning himself on top of Cecilia. Just as they were about to enjoy their moment, a knock came from outside. "Hey, open up. Don't be a coward," Timothy called out.Leon shouted mockingly, "Idiot, did you think I'd be stupid enough to just stand where I was and wait for you? You've taken the bait. You're dead meat now!"Outside, Timothy shrugged helplessly and said, "If you open the door now and apologize on your knees, I'll leave your corpse intact. If you don't, things won't end well for you whe
Cecilia stared in disbelief at the man downstairs. It was like something straight out of a movie, yet it was happening vividly right before her eyes. She had never imagined that in real life, someone could actually take on dozens, or even hundreds of men alone. Timothy demonstrated what it meant to be fiercely skilled. Those thugs wielding machetes and clubs became nothing more than straw men in front of him. Every punch, every kick, every movement of his body became a deadly weapon. No one could get close to him. It was as if he had some kind of sixth sense for dodging attacks. He consistently slipped away just before the weapons could land. Timothy moved effortlessly with a relaxed expression. Every one of his moves was fluid and purposeful. One thug after another fell. They were reduced to nothing more than bouncy balls in the courtyard, as they were sent flying in all directions by Timothy's kicks. With each casual slap or kick, someone would be launched through the air.
At that moment, Leon was just done having his way with Cecilia in a luxurious villa. Cecilia lay naked on the bed, her face flushed. Her fair, long legs were posed seductively. Leon, breathing heavily, touched Cecilia's smooth bottom and grinned wickedly. "Babe, you've gotten even better. I almost couldn't handle you."Cecilia looked at him with a seductive gaze, tracing circles on his chest with her finger as she said sweetly, "Leon, I have my eye on a new bag recently. It's so pretty. I want it so badly.""If you want it, just buy it. How much is it?"Cecilia's face lit up, and she replied coquettishly, "It's around 80 thousand dollars."Leon, puffing on a cigar, scoffed. "80 thousand? That's nothing."He got up and walked to the safe in the corner of the bedroom. Then, he entered the code. Cecilia looked over and was stunned. The safe was full of cash and gold bars! Her heart raced as she also saw a gun inside. It was the first time in her life she had seen one, and she was
The store assistant became excited and recounted, "It was a young man, and he just left the store. He didn't dress well and didn't look wealthy. But he came in, barely glanced around, and bought a bracelet. "That bracelet was close to three million dollars, and he bought it right away! We've been in business for several years. This is the first time I've seen someone who keeps such a low profile."Susan was stunned, and Jason was equally shocked. He looked at Susan, swallowed hard, and stammered, "Could it be… Timothy?"Beside him, Susan did her best to suppress the shock she was feeling and asked the store assistant, "Can you describe what he looked like and what he was wearing?"The store assistant described him briefly, and Susan was absolutely flabbergasted. The person she described was indeed Timothy!She felt like she'd just been struck by a bolt of lightning that left her head buzzing. She couldn't believe that Timothy had bought a bracelet that was about three million dol
Susan had broken up with Timothy and cheated on him back then because he was poor. If Timothy was rich now, it would be a bitter pill to swallow for her. But on the other hand, she felt something for Timothy deep in her heart. It was a kind of feeling that she couldn't quite place her finger on. After all, she had genuinely loved Timothy back then. She ultimately left him because he was dirt poor. If he was rich now, wasn't there a possibility for them to rekindle their relationship?Susan refused to believe that Timothy had no lingering feelings for her at all. Back then, he had been so deeply in love with her. In the present time, it didn't seem like he had a girlfriend or a woman by his side. Even if he did, she was probably nowhere as good as her.Those two conflicting thoughts occupied Susan's mind. As such, a conflicted expression appeared on her beautiful, delicate face. Timothy had no idea what was going through Susan's mind at that moment. If he knew, he would have tol
Susan bit her lip, and a complicated expression appeared on her face. Since she and Timothy had been in a relationship in the past, meeting again at this moment was somewhat awkward. After a brief silence, Susan bit her lip again and forced a smile at Timothy. "We meet again. Are you shopping at the mall too? What a coincidence."Timothy shrugged. "It's not a pleasant coincidence, though. After all, someone here clearly doesn't welcome my presence."Without a doubt, he was referring to Jason. Jason's expression soured in response. He glared at Timothy and scoffed coldly as he said mockingly, "It's good that you know. Indeed, I don't wish to see your face. Running into you brings bad luck."He looked Timothy up and down before sneering again, remarking, "It's not that I have bad luck—it's this place. How could someone as broke as you even think of coming here?"Susan tugged at Jason's hand and said with a frown, "Jason, we're all classmates here. Is it necessary to be so harsh w
