"I've heard some rumors about this, and now that I'm back, I plan to take care of these moles," Timothy said. "So far, only the Norgon has been exposed, but I'm sure others are hiding in the shadows." He continued, "You can't reveal my identity to anyone yet. I don't want anything to interfere with my business. Do you understand?"Zack nodded respectfully. "Understood, Mr. Yeager!""Alright, that's about it. I came to meet you mainly for those two matters. I'll contact you if anything else arises."With that, Timothy stood up and walked out of the office. Meanwhile, Zack watched his retreating figure with admiration.He could tell Timothy wasn't an average man from his words. Caelumis was bound to succeed with someone like him in charge.Without wasting time, Zack instantly assigned his subordinates to investigate Tiana's accident and searched for the medicinal ingredients Timothy needed.As night fell, Lormford City gradually came to life, its street aglow with sparkling light
Cora and Joseph remained still.Cora's expression changed from fear to confusion, skepticism, and eventually disbelief. Her voice trembled as she asked, "Tiana, what did you just say? Can you say it again? I can't believe it."With tears running down her face, Tiana repeated, "Mom, I can feel my leg again!"Hearing her words made Cora and Joseph burst into tears. It had been three years since Tiana's leg was paralyzed after that accident.In those three years, she had lost sensation in her leg. Every doctor had deemed her leg beyond hope, stating that it was entirely impossible to be treated.Yet, she could suddenly feel her leg again, which meant there was a chance for recovery.Cora held Tiana tightly, her voice choked with passion as she sobbed, "There's hope for you, Tiana!"Joseph wiped away his tears and patted Timothy on the shoulder. "Good job, son!"Timothy grinned and looked at Tiana. "I've already asked someone to look for the medicinal ingredients. Once they arrive,
Timothy swallowed the words at the tip of his mouth when he saw the smiles on his parents' faces.Cora was beaming with excitement, a feeling she hadn't experienced in a long time.Her son had returned home safely, had a fiancée, had excellent medical skills, and almost had a job. Meanwhile, there was hope for her daughter's leg to be treated.Suddenly, life seemed full of hope, and the wrinkles on her face seemed to disappear.The light in the hall was dim, and Timothy glanced at his surroundings. The walls were dirty, the floor cracked, the windows were drafty, and the roof leaked. The entire house was damp and dreary.He couldn't help but frown and ponder momentarily before saying, "Mom, Dad, you should start packing. We'll find a time to move out of here."The elderly couple was taken aback. "Move out? Where will we move? We don't have a house."Timothy smiled and answered, "I have a house big enough for all of us. Besides, the environment is much better than here. This old
"If you have anything to say, just say it, darling. There's no need to be so serious," Timothy teased with a cheeky grin.Mavis' face flushed bright crimson as she gritted her teeth in frustration. Her eyes were full of embarrassment and rage as she warned, "Timothy, for the last time, stop calling me darling!""You told me this afternoon that if you lost, I can call you darling. You're the CEO of a large corporation like Jefferson Group, but you can't keep your promises?"His words made her expression tightened. After a few seconds of silence, she reluctantly gave in. "You can call me that in private, but don't do it in public."Timothy silently chuckled. He hadn't expected the proud woman to give in. After all, she was pretty stubborn.He didn't want to push his luck and agreed happily. "No problem, darling! Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"When he stressed the word "darling", Mavis felt extremely uncomfortable. The feeling of being called that by a man who used to pic
Mavis sneered. "You'll never get to kiss me, so get ready to run naked. I'll send you my account number later. I can't wait to see how you plan to impress me." With that, she hung up the phone.A few seconds later, Timothy's phone chimed with a message from her that included her account number.He smiled mischievously and thought, "Mavis, just wait and see how I'll make you regret being so aloof tonight. My kisses will melt away that cold front you've been putting up."He glanced back at the dimly lit courtyard, then quietly slipped away. At the street corner, he rubbed his palms together and pondered how to make money.Timothy wasn't short of money. His card balance could buy several islands in a medium-sized country. Although he could just have someone transfer the money to Mavis, he found that idea too boring. Since he had nothing else to do after returning to Lormford City, he decided to have some fun.Suddenly, an idea struck him. He flicked the ash from his cigarette and h
The black Range Rover pulled up in front of Timothy and instantly grabbed the crowd's attention.The car door opened to reveal a pair of perfectly smooth, fair legs in high heels. Timothy looked at the sheer, nude stockings that accentuated every flawless detail. It was a breathtaking sight.Yvonne soon stepped out. Her dark hair cascaded gracefully, and her eyebrows and eyes held a classic beauty. She exuded a refined sophistication that sharply contrasted with the imposing black Range Rover she had just exited.Timothy's eyes twitched in surprise because her beauty rivaled Mavis'. He was sitting on a stool with a cigarette dangling from his mouth. One of his legs casually crossed over the other, and his eyes narrowed. His gaze roamed over Yvonne with an unabashed gaze.The nearby stall owners swallowed nervously, looking at her with intense fascination and desire. Seeing Timothy's indifferent attitude only made their jealousy more apparent.Yvonne calmly glanced at him. She fr
"What's wrong with being a creep? A creep who doesn't want to recharge isn't worth the title." Timothy dropped his playful grin and said seriously, "Okay, I'm done messing around. What's the matter?"Yvonne frowned and sized him up. "There's something strange happening at my home. I need someone to check it out. Is this your area of expertise?"He observed her closely and noticed a strange emotion in her eyes. So, he said thoughtfully, "I didn't notice it before, but now I've got a pretty good idea of what's been bothering you."She frowned and eyed him suspiciously. "Why do you sound like a fraud? What did you see?"Timothy cleared his throat and said earnestly, "Have you been waking up between 3:00 am and 4:00 am? Do you feel anxious and out of breath?"Maybe you've also been feeling dizzy. And I'm guessing you've also had some health issues like missing your period for a couple of months and dealing with random illnesses?"Yvonne's face went through a series of emotions as she
The courtyard exuded timeless charm. Its meticulous design featured lush greenery and trees, creating a natural screen. Pavilions were added to the tranquil atmosphere to give the space an almost enchanted feel.Timothy immediately sensed that this place was extraordinary. As he took in the scene, he noticed the stone lions at the entrance and the dragon's blood tree in the courtyard, valued at around seven million dollars.His heart skipped a beat. It was exactly as he had suspected; this place was indeed a hidden gem. Living here would not only benefit his health but could also extend his lifespan. He glanced at Yvonne with renewed interest and realized her background must be just as impressive.On the contrary, she quietly observed him, and her heart skipped a beat. Given his shabby appearance, she expected him to be nervous, uneasy, or slightly intimidated by the luxurious surroundings.But she saw none of that in him. Instead, he appeared calm and indifferent. Her instincts
