Reginald only managed to come this far because of his cruel and merciless methods.He had used countless shady tactics in all those years of his constant fights with Jacob.At least to Reginald, Jacob was the only person who could compete with him in the real estate industry of this city!But this time, Austin had popped out from nowhere and caused such a ruckus at his construction site.This was a direct confrontation!Even Jacob wouldn't dare to do that!Austin suddenly raised his right hand, stopping Reginald."Mr. Pearson, I'm sorry for breaking your cousin's leg, but the blood from him and your subordinates soiled my suit. Shouldn't you compensate me for that first?"His voice was calm as if he truly cared about that suit.Reginald was a little stunned.Austin was being too arrogant!After a short pause, Reginald suddenly laughed.Then, he lifted his hands and clapped thrice.In an instant, the young men standing behind Reginald and at the entrance gathered around Aus

"I-I'll pay… Stop. Just stop it…"Reginald was trembling all over, and he was drenched in sweat as he roared in pain.He was seriously scared now.He was terrified at Austin's cruelty and decisiveness.He had no doubts that if he kept being stubborn, Austin might do something even more outrageous.Austin was crazy!"This wouldn't have happened if you had compensated me sooner." Austin sneered.Then, he removed the knife from Reginald's thigh.Reginald screamed in distress, and his pained cries were heard. "W-Why the hell did you take it out?""Well, I'll just put it back in."Reginald's body turned stiff as he stared dumbfoundedly at the small knife, which had returned to its previous place in his thigh.The fighters were all stunned at the sight.This was inhumane!Austin calmly wiped his bloody hands on Reginald's suit.Then, he said calmly, "Mr. Pearson, I'm not here just to get compensation for my suit. I also have something else to tell you. Raquel is under me, so ke

Someone kicked open the door to Vista Room.In an instant, everyone turned their attention to the entrance.Austin was surprised to find that the intruder was none other than Wolf!"Mr. Campbell!"Wolf's expression shifted when he saw the situation in Vista Room. However, instead of stepping forward, he shouted at Reginald."Reginald, Jacob wants me to relay a message. You'll die if you overestimate yourself!"Reginald felt like he had been struck by thunder. The fierce look on his face instantly turned into fear.Austin's words just now had already caused him to waver.Now, Wolf's appearance and words were like cold water splashing onto his fire of rage. His anger was completely gone.He thought, "Damn it… Did I really offend the wrong person this time?"Just when Reginald was hesitating, Austin suddenly reached up and slapped the barrel away from his head. Sneering, he said, "I'm walking out of this door right now. If you want to shoot, go ahead!"With that, he walked outs

When she saw Austin coming back, she walked up to him.Taking the jacket from Austin, she complained, "You're working too hard every single day. Can't you be a little nicer to yourself?""I was just busy at work." Smiling, Austin rubbed his tummy. "Mom, are there leftovers from the dinner Raquel made for you? I haven't had dinner.""No, but I can make some tomato pasta for you."Dahlia smiled as she said.Austin didn't stop her. Since young, his favorite food was the tomato pasta his mother made.Austin hadn't eaten it in a long time, not ever since Dahlia fell ill.Making tomato pasta wasn't too difficult, so it wouldn't worsen Dahlia's current condition.Still, Austin rolled up his sleeves an

As for the identity problem, Austin had to help Wolf with it.Wolf didn't mind which job he was assigned to. After all, his real goal was to follow Austin.

But they knew that Austin had personally recommended Wolf, so they didn't have any complaints.The punch instantly caused the atmosphere to turn tense.At the same time, the onlookers shouted in surprise as well."He's too arrogant. Does he think that he owns this place or something?""Hey, didn't you hear what he said? He's the brother-in-law of Dominion's Mr. Campbell, haha… Seriously?"Everyone knows about Mr. Campbell's divorce, and he even showed off his love for his new girlfriend during the Hydra Gardens pre-sales."The Welches' reputation is already ruined, but he's here to disgrace himself even more."Someone else said, "Right, I watched the news too. The Welches are so shameless! This guy is in his 20s, right? He's like one of those immature teenagers!"As Harvey listened to the discussions of the people around him, hi

Austin never expected that Nancy would come back.As he returned to the Tetra Club, he remained sullen, his eyes dark with unresolved anger.Seeing Austin like this, Cecily felt a pang of sadness.She gently tried to comfort him, "It's all in the past now, isn't it? I'm here with you, and we have our baby on the way.""I can't just let it go," Austin shook his head."The best I can do is not seek revenge against them, but to truly forgive and forget—I can't do that."The actions of Nancy's family were still fresh in his memory.Austin wasn't someone who sought revenge for every slight, but he was far from the kind of person who could simply forgive and forget, moving on with a carefree "Hallelujah."Dahlia's despair as she lay in bed, the arrogance and cruelty of the Welch family…In the eyes of the Welch family, Dahlia's life wasn't worth as much as Harvey's wedding.Even when the time had passed and he was about to finally be happy with Cecily, the Welch family not only dem

After leaving this city, Nancy put in a tremendous amount of effort to "rebirth" herself.Meeting Ethan had shown her a different side of life.While he wasn't part of the uppermost echelons of wealth and power, he had enough. Most importantly, he treated her with the utmost respect.She understood Ethan's background, which made that respect all the more valuable.A man of his stature could have any woman he wanted in his bed the same night.Yet Ethan had shown her incredible patience, making her question whether the rumors about him were true.Tonight, returning to this city was her way of bidding farewell to the past and embracing the future.After all, people need to look forward, don't they?Meanwhile, Ethan was feeling more dejected than he'd ever been.Lying in his luxurious bed in Brook Villa, he couldn't sleep, tossing and turning restlessly.He had hoped to establish a connection with Austin.

The river breeze was cool, and the lights reflected on the water flickered softly.The figure in front of them wore a long black coat, standing quietly by the railing. Her fair, delicate profile, partially obscured by a few strands of windblown hair, carried a hint of melancholy."Sir, Mrs. Campbell, is something wrong?" Aldus noticed the change and quickly stepped forward to inquire."Let's go home," Austin suddenly said, his previously cheerful expression now somber, with a touch of disdain.Go home? They had just arrived.Aldus was surprised and quickly followed Austin's gaze. When he saw what Austin was looking at, he immediately understood.Without a word, he turned to leave with Austin.But a soft hand gently grabbed Austin's arm."It's been so many years, aren't you going to say hello?" Cecily asked."I have no desire to greet her," Austin said, his disdain clear and unhidden.Three years of marriage, filled with nothing but pain.Even when Dahlia was gravely ill, Nan

After a busy day, just as Austin was about to finish up, a new invitation appeared on his desk."Who delivered this?" Austin asked."Ethan," Wolf replied.Austin chuckled, didn't bother opening the invitation, and instead tossed it directly into the trash."I've got to get home to Cecily."When he returned to the Bamboo Parlor at Tetra Club, Raquel had already prepared a delicious dinner.The dishes were beautifully presented, with vibrant colors and enticing aromas.After dinner, Austin and Ezra stepped out into the courtyard."Mr. Lockwood, any news from the Campbells about my dad?" Austin asked, the text message from Walter still weighing heavily on his mind.Considering the Campbells' efforts to find Walter, and given their intelligence resources, they should have been some leads by now.But Ezra shook his head. "Nothing, Not a trace.""The Campbells' intelligence network has never been this weak, has it?" Austin frowned, speaking in a low tone.Ezra gave a wry smile. "

"Childhood?"Austin stopped his workout, wiped the sweat from his face, and smiled bitterly.His childhood had been bleak.Only Dahlia had brought some light into the darkness.Seeing Austin's pained smile, Aldus immediately realized his mistake.He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Sir. I spoke without thinking. You don't need to answer that.""It's fine," Austin replied, gesturing towards a nearby bench, and inviting Aldus to sit with him.Once they were seated, Austin slowly began to speak. "There's not much to tell about my childhood. It was mostly just being called an 'illegitimate child' and living day to day, never knowing where my next meal would come from."If it weren't for my mom fighting tooth and nail to raise me, I'd probably be dead by now."With just a few simple words, he conveyed a world of suffering.Aldus felt a wave of guilt. He had only been trying to find clues from Austin's past that might explain his exceptional combat instincts and incredible physical

Austin's gaze softened as warmth flooded his heart.Who hasn't longed for a light left on just for them in a sea of lights? But in reality, how many actually have that?Cecily did that for him.Given her background, the fact that she went to such lengths truly surprised Austin.In the three years he spent in the past, he had never experienced something like this.His nose tingled with emotion as he pulled Cecily into his arms, speaking softly, "Thank you. Marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life.""Alright, alright, I asked Raquel to prepare breakfast earlier this morning. You go to the dining room, and I'll have her bring it over," Cecily said as she gently slipped out of Austin's embrace, her graceful smile lighting up her eyes."Doesn't Bamboo Parlor have a kitchen?" Austin asked, curious.Cecily gave him a playful look. "The chairs in the living room are so hard, and you spent the whole night on one—how could you have slept well? If Raquel had been clattering around

The room fell into a heavy silence."Deactivating the phone number… was Dad trying to prevent me from tracking his location?" Austin murmured with a frown.Ezra pondered for a moment, his voice low and serious. "Perhaps he was more concerned about someone else tracking him."Austin's eyes widened in realization.Of course—if Walter could send him a message to let him know he was safe, he wouldn't be worried about Austin tracking himDeactivating the phone was likely to prevent others from tracing his location."But who is he trying to avoid?"Ezra shook his head, remaining silent.Having followed Walter for many years, he knew the man's temperament and habits. But this time, he was truly baffled.He couldn't even begin to piece together a clue.Taking a deep breath, Ezra forced a bitter smile. "I'm afraid I'm at a loss this time, sir. There's no sign of anything unusual from the Campbells either."This statement only deepened Austin's confusion.If there were anyone who cou

Austin knocked softly on the door.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of shuffling from inside.Ezra opened the door, his face full of curiosity. "Sir, what's going on?"Austin quickly made a shushing gesture, worried about disturbing Cecily.Then he gently pushed Ezra back into the room."Sorry to bother you so late, Mr. Lockwood," Austin said.Ezra smiled. "It's no trouble at all. The older you get, the less you need. I was just reading."Austin glanced at the book on Ezra's bedside table and couldn't help but feel a bit exasperated.This old rascal!Ezra blushed and quickly shoved the book under his pillow.Austin sat on the bed and pulled up the text message from Walter, showing it to Ezra."I just received this message."When Ezra read the text, his eyes lit up with a sharp gleam, and he was overjoyed. "This is from Mr. Walter!"Austin nodded, his expression serious. "But I've sent several messages back, and there's been no reply. I called twice—once it was immedi
