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

Get him! Take down this bastard!

    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

    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

    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,

    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
