Vulcan Empire Chapter 11
Lionel said with a smile, "Mr. Zachary Simmons, I plan to take you, Melissa, Mr. Kevin Simmons, and Mrs. Fanny with me tomorrow night."Zachary, Kevin, Fanny, and Melissa were overjoyed, "Lionel, thank you so much.""Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Melissa, I want to go too," Melissa's older brother and the Simmons family's eldest heir, Zander Simmons, quickly said."Dad, I want to go too," James quickly chimed in.They all did not want to miss a billion-dollar family dinner party.Zachary looked at Lionel and requested, "Lionel, can you get another silver invitation card?""Lionel, please get another silver invitation card. My big brother wants to go too," Melissa said coquettishly.Lionel thought disdainfully, 'Do you think silver invitation cards are sold in the supermarket and available for anyone to get?' However, to make himself seem capable, he did not refuse but said, "Silver invitation cards are very hard to get, but I'll try my best." He then took out his phone and made a call. S

After dinner, Dustin, Rosalie, and Queenie packed their bags and left the Simmons Residence, returning to their house. Rosalie wanted Howard and Maybelle to move in with them, but they were reluctant to leave the Simmons Residence, believing that moving out would mean they would lose the inheritance to the Simmons family's fortune.The night passed peacefully.Around 6 PM the next day, Dustin drove Queenie, Rosalie, Howard, and Maybelle to Holt Residence with Rosalie's second-hand car."Are you sure you have an invitation to the Holt family's party?" Maybelle asked worriedly. She did not trust Dustin much.Dustin reassured her, "Maybelle, don't worry. I can get you all inside."Rosalie chimed in, "Mom, trust Dustin. He would never lie to us."Maybelle said gloomily, "Dustin, I'll trust you this once. If you trick us, you'll divorce Rosalie tomorrow."Around 7, Dustin arrived with the four at the entrance to the Holt family's mansion. The mansion was brightly lit, with luxury car

Lionel looked at the wealthy heirs who were defending him and said excitedly, "Mr. Swazzen, Mr. Zingster, and Mr. Thompstone, long time no see. This punk is just a son-in-law of the Simmons family. He's also a jobless loser. He somehow stole a golden invitation card and came to join the Holt family's birthday party. Isn't that despicable?""I thought he was some prestigious heir. Turns out he's just a freeloading son-in-law. No wonder he's so pathetic." The group of heirs was disdainful.Once they learned that Dustin had no background, they became even more brazen, ready to beat him up at any moment. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong was their nature.Zachary, Melissa, and the rest of the Simmons family were excited to see the usually arrogant heirs supporting Lionel. "Lionel's amazing." They thought they could join high society as long as they followed Lionel, so they decided to make him a son-in-law of the Simmons family no matter what it took.However, Howard and Maybelle

The crowd turned their heads to see Sebastian hurrying over expressionlessly.Chester hurried forward to greet him, "Uncle, you're here."Lionel followed closely, respectfully nodding to Sebastian. "Hello, Mr. Sebastian Holt. I'm Lionel Walsh from Walsh Group. We met at the charity gala last time. I wonder if you remember me."Zachary was unwilling to be outdone. "Sebastian, I'm Zachary Simmons from Simmons Group. I once had coffee with your father."Sebastian ignored them, glaring at Chester and chiding, "Do you know what you're doing? Why are you arbitrarily kicking out my guests?"Seeing Sebastian's expression, Chester became uneasy and quickly explained, "Uncle, this guy isn't a guest. He stole a golden invitation card and sneaked in to freeload. What's even more ridiculous is that he claimed you gave it to him.""I did personally give Mr. Summers his invitation card. Do you have a problem with that?" Sebastian asked sternly."How is that possible? He's just a worthless lose

Rosalie saw that the emerald cross pendant was of high quality and exquisite craftsmanship, indicating it was an expensive luxury item. She quickly said, "Mr. Holt, this is too valuable. We can't accept it."Sebastian smiled and replied, "It's nothing. Mr. Summers is my savior. Giving his daughter a pendant is nothing."Dustin had brought down Flynn Real Estate, indirectly avenging the Holt family and granting them the development rights to Southkey Plaza, significantly boosting Holt Group's influence. In a way, Dustin was indeed Holt Group's savior.Dustin said, "Rosalie, since it's a gift from Mr. Holt, accept it."Howard and Maybelle also advised, "Yeah, Rosalie. It's rare for Mr. Holt to give Queenie a gift. How can we refuse?" They also realized the pendant was worth at least 45 thousand dollars, so they did not want to let it go.Rosalie had no choice but to thank Sebastian and accept the emerald cross pendant.Dustin glanced at Sebastian and said, "Mr. Holt, you can go abo

Lionel spoke with an icy tone, saying, "Have someone from the Serpent Gang take care of him."Zachary, Melissa, and the rest felt a chill run down their spines.Although the Serpent Gang was a small-time group in Oceania, they had a reputation for their viciousness.Their leader, Tri-Serpent, was particularly known for his cruelty and twisted nature.Anyone unfortunate enough to be captured by Tri-Serpent would endure unimaginable torment until their demise.If the Serpent Gang targeted Dustin, he would be utterly defenseless.Melissa stared at Lionel in astonishment, her eyes wide. "Lionel, do you actually know Tri-Serpent, the leader of the Serpent Gang?"Lionel boasted with a smirk, "Absolutely, we're close. We hang out and have drinks together all the time."Melissa exclaimed with excitement, "That's incredible! Call him immediately, have him snatch that loser Dustin, and make sure that mean girl Rosalie gets what she deserves too.""Wait a second, it's late. Tri-Serpent i

By three in the afternoon, the Simmons family received news of the Rostin Advertising Agency securing a major contract with the Holt Group.Upon hearing this, Zachary promptly called for a meeting with the key individuals at the Simmons Group.The Simmons Group was a prominent family business, and all the top positions were held by family members."I'm sure you're all aware of Rosalie obtaining the Holt Group's business for the Southkey Plaza," Zachary stated from his position at the head of the table, addressing Melissa and the others."Yeah, we heard. It's probably because Mr. Holt is repaying a favor to that loser Dustin by giving it to Rosalie," the executives grumbled.Zachary's expression turned serious. "If Rosalie succeeds with this deal, she'll become incredibly influential, and she won't even give us a second thought at the Simmons Group."He paused, then continued, "Do any of you want that to happen?""No way," Melissa exclaimed, rising to her feet.Zachary nodded. "

Melissa grinned with delight. "Grandpa, this is nothing. My future father-in-law is a real powerhouse. The Walsh family is destined to become a ten-billion-dollar dynasty sooner or later."Zachary got straight to the point. "Melissa, give Lionel a call. Have Mr. Walsh inform Mr. Wilson to block Grand Horizon Bank from granting a loan to Rosalie."Melissa swiftly replied, "No problem at all."She took out her phone and dialed a number.After ending the call, Zachary, eager for an update, inquired, "Melissa, what did Lionel say? Is he going to contact Mr. Wilson for us?"Melissa grinned even wider. "He said yes. He assured me that he'll ensure Rosalie doesn't receive the loan. He even mentioned that if our Simmons family ever needs a loan from Grand Horizon Bank, it's a piece of cake."Zachary's heart raced with excitement. "Seriously? That's incredible!"The Simmons Group had been facing a roadblock as they could not secure a large enough loan from the banks, which hindered their

In an instant, a feeling of imminent danger gripped everyone in the vicinity. It was as if a sharp blade had been pressed against their throats, causing their breath to hitch and their bodies to quiver.Tri-Serpant rose to his feet and bellowed, "What are you all waiting for? Get him! Take down this bastard! Whoever succeeds will be promoted to my right-hand man and receive a reward of $15,000!"Upon hearing the enticing promise of such a generous reward, the dozens of Serpent Gang thugs regained their courage. They shouted in unison, charging at Dustin with raised fists, underestimating him due to their overwhelming numbers.Undeterred by their assault, Dustin gently laid Rosalie on the ground and swiftly retrieved silver needles to administer acupuncture. In a matter of moments, he managed to staunch the bleeding from Rosalie's head.Meanwhile, the Serpent Gang thugs closed in on him. Leading the charge was a hulking figure resembling a gorilla, aiming a powerful punch straight a

For a moment, both Tri-Serpent and Lionel were stunned. They had not expected Rosalie to attempt suicide by smashing her head against the wall. She was determined, that's for sure!However, they felt no sympathy nor any sadness. Their only concern was that her death would prevent them from further torturing her.They wanted to see her suffer and get a satisfactory revenge.Lionel blurted, "That bitch got off too easy."Tri-Serpent, the calmest among them, said, "Don't worry. She won't die just from hitting the wall. At most, she's concussed and unconscious."He waved his hand and sneered. "Guys, keep going. Dead or alive, we won't let her off.""Yes, boss!" The dozens of Serpent Gang thugs responded, approaching Rosalie once again with creepy grins. "Hey, beautiful, no one can save you today."They were heartless and did not care about Rosalie's injury.Rosalie was not unconscious but had a concussion, making her too weak to stand.As she saw the thugs approaching, she

The man in the villa was the leader of the Serpent Gang, known as the "Tri-Serpent."After Lionel and Tri-Serpent finished their glasses of red wine, four thugs entered the room, bringing in Rosalie who was tied up.Lionel commanded, "Untie her."The four thugs followed his orders and released Rosalie from the ropes.Once she was free, Rosalie glared at Lionel with intense anger. "Lionel, so it was you all along!"Lionel sneered at her, "Now you see the difference between you two and me? Don't think that saving Mr. Holt makes you part of our circle."Hmph, you and your husband are nothing compared to me. I can easily destroy both of you."Go ahead, call that useless Dustin and ask Sebastian for help. Let's see if he can save you now."Lionel believed that even Sebastian would not dare to anger the Serpent Gang.Tri-Serpent glanced at Rosalie and asked, "Miss Simmons, do you know why we brought you here?"Rosalie snorted. "What do you want?"Tri-Serpent responded with a sinis

Rosalie could not believe her luck. It felt like a dream that she had effortlessly obtained a 30 million dollar loan from Grand Horizon Bank, and the money was transferred right away.Once she got back to the office, she called Dustin. "Dustin, I managed to secure a 30 million dollar loan from Grand Horizon Bank.""That's amazing, Rosalie! I always knew you could do it."Rosalie sighed. "I don't think it was all me. Everything went so smoothly, as if someone was secretly helping me.""If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Holt might have had a hand in it. I heard that Mr. Lawson from Grand Horizon Bank owes Mr. Holt a big favor," Dustin suggested, trying to shift any suspicion away from himself."I see. No wonder Grand Horizon Bank treated me as their Prestige VIP. Sigh, we owe Mr. Holt another huge favor. Dustin, Mr. Holt has helped us so much already. We shouldn't trouble him anymore. We must be content with what we have," Rosalie said, feeling bad."No problem. By the way, Rosalie, can you

Melissa interjected, "That's right, Mr. Wilson. Simon and the others made a mistake and confused Rosalie was me. You should talk to him about it. And by the way, Simon is not qualified to be the director of Grand Horizon Bank. You should let him go."Gary responded without emotion, "Simon is our exceptional director at Grand Horizon Bank. Do you really think you have the power to fire him? Who do you think you are? And when were you given the authority to meddle in our bank's affairs?"Lionel, displaying both ignorance and arrogance, said, "Mr. Wilson, if you do me this favor today, I'll put in a good word for you with my dad. The Walsh family will be forever grateful."Gary was left speechless. He had encountered many individuals who overestimated themselves, but never someone as audacious as Lionel."George means nothing to me. Why would I need to seek his favor?""He's just someone who flatters me and follows me around. He would never disobey me. If I asked him to kneel, he wou

Upon hearing Rosalie openly insult her, Melissa felt deeply offended, and anger surged through her. She yelled, "Simon, what are you waiting for? Remove this woman from here! She is not the true VIP and has no right to be the Prestige VIP of Grand Horizon Bank."Simon firmly replied, "I'm sorry, but I was instructed to assist Miss Rosalie. As for you, Melissa, I don't know who you are."Lionel glared and shouted, "You fool, can't you understand basic English? How can you be the director of Grand Horizon Bank if you don't comprehend what I'm saying? I've already told you multiple times that you have attended the wrong person!"After a brief pause, Lionel explained, "My dad called Mr. Wilson and asked Grand Horizon Bank to treat Melissa as the Prestige VIP. However, he accidentally mentioned Rosalie instead of Melissa. Do you understand now?"Simon replied, "I'm sorry, I still don't understand. It's because Miss Rosalie is our Prestige VIP, not because of the Deputy General Manager's
Vulcan Empire Chapter 24
Simon was slightly taken aback. "Miss Rosalie, isn't 7.5 million dollars too low? You should consider going for 150 million dollars."Rosalie pondered for a moment and replied, "Alright, I'll settle for 30 million dollars then. That should be sufficient."Simon nodded in agreement. "Very well."He admired Rosalie's honesty. If it were someone like Melissa, they would have opted for the full 1.5 billion dollars instead of settling for less.Soon, Rosalie finished signing the agreement.Shortly after, she received a notification from the bank confirming the deposited funds.Rosalie was astonished.Was this the legendary instant transfer service?The VIP treatment truly lived up to its reputation.Just as Rosalie finished signing the agreement, Lionel, who had received a call from Melissa, finally arrived in his car.Melissa rushed over to greet him. "Lionel, you made it."Lionel replied, his expression darkening, "Has that bitch Rosalie left yet?"Melissa shook her head. "Not

Before long, Zachary, Melissa, and the others were all escorted out of Grand Horizon Bank.Apart from feeling embarrassed, they were also furious at being treated this way.They were convinced that Simon had made a mistake."Melissa, what's happening? Why did Simon recognize Rosalie as the top VIP instead?" Zachary asked, clearly frustrated.Melissa responded with determination, "They must have made an error. I guess when my father-in-law informed Mr. Wilson, he accidentally mentioned me as Rosalie. Damn it! That woman ended up getting an advantage."Zachary nodded in agreement. "That's highly likely. You should call Lionel right away and have him come here to expose Rosalie, so she won't get the loan."Melissa felt even more anxious than Zachary, so she wasted no time and swiftly pulled out her phone to make the call.After escorting the members of the Simmons family out, Simon approached Rosalie with utmost respect and inquired, "Are you Miss Rosalie Simmons?"Rosalie nodded,
Vulcan Empire Chapter 22
Simon's expression grew cold as he asked, "Who are you?"In that instant, when he realized she was not Rosalie, all his respect disappeared.Melissa beamed with pride and said, "I'm Melissa, Lionel's girlfriend. You know, Lionel from the Walsh Group? They're worth a hundred million dollars!"Simon understood the situation clearly. Lionel was merely a small player in a not-so-prominent company.He knew he had gotten the wrong person."What's the last part of your phone number?" Simon asked.Melissa gave him a perplexed look and responded, "Eight nine zero. Why? Don't you remember my number? We just spoke on the phone recently."Simon groaned internally. He had dialed the wrong number. He intended to call Rosalie, whose number ended with eight six zero, but he had mistakenly pressed eight nine zero."Alright, Mr. Lawson, let's not waste any more time. We urgently need to sign that contract. The Simmons family wants to borrow 1.5 billion dollars. I'm supposed to meet Lionel at fiv
