Glancing at the remaining third of his cigar, Alexander extinguished it in the ashtray.Stretching with a smile, he said, "Austin, this is one of the few things I can help you with. The rest of the path, you'll have to walk on your own. The Campbells aren't as simple as you think. Even your father probably finds it tough at times."Rubbing his face, Alexander's expression returned to its usual sternness. "It's about time I headed back to Grave Prison. Otherwise, those little brats will start causing trouble again."His casual words carried an undeniable confidence that seemed insurmountable.……The next morning, sunlight bathed the earth, bringing new life.Everything appeared as usual.Light and darkness might not coexist, but that didn't mean the dark web's upheaval wouldn't ripple into the realm of light.At the Emerson Residence in the capital.Terry woke up as usual, donned his robe, and stood revitalized in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, taking in the entire Emers

"Ugh!"Overcome with rage, Terry suddenly threw his head back and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.Bang!Hearing the commotion, the middle-aged man outside, Scott, kicked open the door.Seeing Terry vomiting blood, Scott rushed over in a panic to support him. "Terry, calm down. You're hurting yourself with all this anger."Terry's pale face was full of despair."How can I not be furious with the Shadow Web Syndicate's actions? What is going on?"Scott quickly explained, "Last night, a huge piece of news broke on the dark web, causing an uproar that still hasn't settled."His expression grew more fearful."Apparently, the Grim Reaper, who holds the top spot on the Shadow Web Syndicate's Death List, has returned. He bypassed them to impose his will, shocking the entire dark web and forcing them to cancel the assassination order on Austin."Terry's body shook, his face contorting in rage once again.He wasn't very familiar with the dark web.In fact

In his anguished roar, Terry's body convulsed again.Blood poured from his mouth as he went limp, unable to stay upright in the chair, and slid to the floor."Terry!" Scott was terrified, his fear palpable."Revenge, I… I must get revenge! The Emersons and Austin...will never coexist!"With a mournful howl, Terry's eyes rolled back, and he passed out.Scott collapsed to the floor in shock, feeling a profound sense of despair.The arrival of the Grim Reaper canceled the assassination order on Austin and caused the Shadow Web Syndicate to confiscate the Emersons' 10 billion dollars.Calling it a disastrous loss doesn't even begin to describe this calamity.He knew the Emersons would face an enormous nightmare without their 10 billion dollars and no result to show for it.In his fear and hopelessness, Scott also felt a pang of regret.How much better would it have been if the Emersons had never posted that assassination order on the Shadow Web Syndicate?Even in decline, the Em

When he left the Campbell residence, Walter had told Austin about the possibility.But Austin never expected the cancellation to come so quickly!In just one night, the storm had calmed.For almost a month, the Shadow Web Syndicate's assassination order had hung over him like a sword, making it impossible for him to find peace, leaving him constantly anxious.Now, finally, the clouds had parted to reveal a clear sky.Overwhelmed with joy, Austin's eyes began to sparkle.He took a deep breath, the first truly deep breath he'd taken in nearly a month.Then, he let out a relieved smile. "How did the Shadow Web Syndicate cancel the order?"Just like that?!Ezra, Aldus, and Raquel were stunned.Austin's reaction was far too calm.For nearly a month, they had all been living under the shadow of the assassination threat, their nerves stretched to the limit.They had expected Austin to jump with joy upon hearing the news.But now..."What's wrong?" Austin asked, puzzled, as he lo

Especially Aldus and Raquel felt an immense sense of awe toward Austin at that moment.Austin's connections and hidden cards were truly unfathomable!How could someone with such deep ties to the Grim Reaper of the Shadow Web Syndicate have ended up in such a dire situation before?"Alright, everyone, get back to work. Now that the assassination threat is over, there's a lot we need to get moving on without delay," Austin said, snapping out of his thoughts and waving his hand to dismiss the astonished Ezra, Aldus, and Raquel.He didn't voice his suspicion that Alexander might be the Grim Reaper.Alexander had snuck into the Campbell residence covertly, even killing Nether to help Walter, without ever revealing his presence.Such secrecy indicated that Alexander didn't want anyone to know his true identity.Whether or not it was Alexander who pressured the Shadow Web Syndicate into canceling the order, Austin saw no need to share his suspicions.If Alexander had left Grave Prison

Roaring...In the sky, helicopter rotors thundered, whipping up gusts of wind.What astonished Austin was that there weren't just one but three helicopters!Each helicopter was suspending a giant, container-like box.The helicopters hovered above, slowly lowering the boxes with cables.The scene was incredibly dramatic, drawing a crowd of onlookers who gasped in amazement.After all, aside from Walter's bodyguard team, the security team at Tetra Club rarely saw such a spectacleAustin was stunned. "Is this really a gift? Are you sure they're not moving house?""Just a small gesture. Mr. Walter has always been generous, especially with his son, daughter-in-law, and future grandchild," Ezra said, his face beaming with pride."In fact, I think Mr. Walter is being a bit stingy. He's far more generous when he's doing business outside.""Sending oil fields?" Austin recalled Ezra mentioning Walter's extravagant gifts in the past."Exactly," Ezra nodded.In Austin's arms, Cecily wa

The middle-aged person hesitated, pointing at the list."There's more on here...""Stop!"Austin's face darkened as he quickly interrupted. "It doesn't matter what's left, just don't read it!""Well, alright then."The middle-aged man, somewhat reluctantly, handed the list over to Austin with respect.Austin didn't even glance at it. He quickly scanned the crowd, who were already pale and silent from shock and waved his hand. "Sorry for the disturbance, everyone. You can all disperse now."He no longer cared about the stone-faced onlookers and hurriedly instructed Ezra and the middle-aged man to handle the exchange.Then, he and Cecily hurried back to the main house.Once seated, Cecily was still in a daze. "Honey, Dad is incredibly generous! I've never seen anyone give gifts like this in my entire life. It feels like a dream.""I haven't even heard of anything like this, let alone seen it." Austin scratched his head helplessly.He now finally believed Ezra's story about Walte
Winner Takes All Chapter 725
With the Campbells' reputation for vast wealth, lavish gift-giving was indeed normal.Ten or even a hundred billion might seem like little. However, there still needed to be a legitimate reason for such actions.Walter could justify giving 10 billion as pocket money to assuage his guilt.But a hundred billion would be harder to explain away without drawing unwanted attention within the Campbells.Cecily's pregnancy provided the perfect excuse for Walter.Even if it seemed a bit "forced," it was certainly more plausible than calling it pocket money.After visiting the Campbell residence, Austin clearly understood the family's internal conflicts.Dorothy held a high position, exerting pressure as an elder. Meanwhile, the power-holding peers formed various factions, with undercurrents of rivalry.The Campbells were unlike other wealthy families where the head's word was law.Ezra nodded approvingly, smiling. "Exactly. With the one-year deadline approaching, you're at a disadvanta
