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
Centra's Somme City International Airport in Murica was heavily guarded."What big shot is coming that a hundred thousand troops are deployed to receive them?""I heard it's the head of Vulcan Empire.""The legendary Vulcan? No wonder they made it so grand!"The crowd watching from a distance got excited immediately.To the public, Vulcan's status was on par with the leaders of powerful countries. Vulcan Empire was another name for the Vulcan Group, which was so powerful that it could influence the world's economy and politics. Hence, people dubbed it an empire.Although Vulcan Empire had branches all over the globe, its headquarters' location remained unknown. The chairman of Vulcan Empire was especially mysterious—no one knew his real name, his looks, or his age. The only thing the world knew was his nickname—Vulcan.At the airport, Supreme Four—Wardraco, Skywolfe, Scarletto, and Hawkden, watched the plane slowly descend with excitement. They were happy about Vulcan's return.Vulcan
Today was the 65th birthday of the Summers family's matriarch, Lillian. That evening, a grand birthday party was held at the Summers Residence, attended by at least half of Somme City's upper-class society.Around 8 PM, the previously bustling hall suddenly quieted down. Lillian slowly walked out, dressed to the nines, accompanied by a handsome and dignified young man."Madam Summers, I wish you happiness and health." The guests came forward to wish Lillian well."Thank you. Thank you." Lillian smiled and nodded slowly to the crowd."I present a coffin, wishing Madam Summers little happiness and imminent death." The untimely voice of a young man suddenly rang out.A huge wooden coffin then flew into the hall, landing heavily on the ground. Everyone's expressions instantly changed. Sending a coffin to Lillian's birthday party was equivalent to cursing her to die soon. They wondered who was bold enough to stir up trouble at Lillian's party.Lillian's face turned livid. Soon after, a h
After leaving the Summers Residence, Dustin got into Mateo's car. "Head to Oceania."As Mateo drove, he said, "Boss, I've arranged everything in Murica. Samuel Lonne is the head of our branch here. I've already informed him, and he'll be at your service from now on. He'll arrive in Oceania from Capital City in a few days."After a pause, Mateo continued, "Also, Tygan Donald, the leader of one of Oceania's top underworld organizations, Tygan Gang, is aware of your arrival. He's on standby 24/7 to help you."Dustin nodded. "Good." He did not say more but gazed out of the car window at the luminous moon in the night sky. A rare gentleness flickered in his eyes. "Rosalie, I'm back. You've suffered so much over the years. From now on, I won't let anyone bully you or look down on you. I'll make you happy every day, show you the finest in the world, and make you the happiest woman."Six years ago, Dustin was betrayed and hunted down by Lillian. Due to his loyal bodyguard's sacrifice, he narro
Maryanne could not bear it any longer. Her body trembled as if poisoned, and she eventually slumped to the ground.Dustin glared at Maryanne, his face terrifyingly angry. "You wet Queenie's pants with water, didn't you? You monster, there's no justice in this world if I don't kill you." With that, he lifted his right foot and ruthlessly stomped on Maryanne's left leg, instantly breaking it.Maryanne let out a piercing scream like a pig getting slaughtered."Don't kill me, I beg you. Don't kill me. It's Ms. Melissa Simmons who forced me to do this," Maryanne pleaded in panic.The second daughter of the Simmons family was called Melissa Simmons. She was the daughter of Rosalie's uncle, Kevin Simmons. The head of the Simmons family, Zachary Simmons, liked her very much. Jealous that Rosalie was not only prettier than herself but also better in every way, Melissa had bullied Rosalie since childhood. Now, she did not even spare Queenie."Queenie hadn't wet her pants for three days, so I cou
Dustin took Queenie into the family restaurant. The restaurant was large and divided into two sections—one half was the dining area, and the other half was a playground. Its main attraction to children was its complete playing facilities.After finding a seat, Dustin looked at Queenie and said, "Queenie, order whatever you like."Queenie happily picked out her favorite foods. After finishing her meal, Queenie pointed to a ball pool in the playground and said, "Dad, I want to play over there."Dustin nodded. "Okay, go ahead. I'll wait here for you. You can play for as long as you want."Queenie cheered as she ran toward the ball pool.Just then, Mateo called and told Dustin that the house was ready and sent over the address and the electronic lock's password. Initially, Mateo wanted to pick them up, but Dustin declined. Dustin finished checking the address and password and suddenly heard Queenie's cries. Startled, he rushed to the ball pool.Standing beside the ball pool, an elegantly d
Yvonne pointed at Dustin. "Flynn, that's the jerk."Flynn glared maliciously at Dustin and went over aggressively with his four black-clad bodyguards.Frightened, Queenie hid behind Dustin. "Dad, the bad guys are here."Dustin gently patted her head and comforted her, "Queenie, I'm here. Don't be afraid. I'll protect you."Queenie stopped being afraid. "I believe in you. You're the best."Children always thought fathers to be invincible.A crowd of onlookers, who had come with their children, gathered around. They recognized Flynn and thought Dustin was doomed."That guy's got the nerve to slap Mr. Langdon's wife.""Yeah, I've heard Mr. Langdon has connections in both the underworld and the legitimate world. Offending him never ends well.""Oh, this is reality. Ordinary people can't fight against the rich and powerful."Flynn closed in, stopping about three paces away. He glared at Dustin and said icily. "Punk, you're pretty arrogant to dare to hit my wife."Dustin replied flatly, "I w
Willy's words were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, instantly stunning Flynn. Flynn muttered to himself, "Impossible. It's impossible."Dustin said flatly, "To me, nothing in this world is impossible."Flynn finally snapped out of his daze and looked at Dustin with shock. "Was it really you? How did you do it? Who are you?" He had refused to believe that Dustin could bankrupt him, but he had no choice but to believe when the truth was before him."Darling, is it true that Flynn Real Estate has gone bankrupt? How is that possible?" Yvonne's expression changed dramatically. She could not believe it and was unable to accept it."What? Is Flynn Real Estate, one of the top ten billion-dollar companies in Oceania, really bankrupt?"The other onlookers were equally shocked. Flynn Real Estate was a behemoth in Oceania, yet the seemingly inconspicuous Dustin brought it down in just one minute. It was miraculous. They could not help but be filled with respect as they looked at Dustin as if he w
