"Mr. Beech? What's the matter?" Tasha, noticing Walter's distraught look, rushed to his side to steady him.With a sharp crack, Walter struck her across the face. "You've destroyed me, you witch!""W—What happened, Mr. Beech?" Tasha's hand flew to her stinging cheek."The Beech family's deal for Mendorra Tower is dead in the water!" Walter's voice thundered through the room."It's all because of you, you troublemaker, that I got tangled up with him. You're a curse!""What!? Was it him?" At his words, Albert and the others gasped in unison.After a quick glance at each other, they bolted for the door. Even the dimmest among them could put two and two together. Howard was behind the Jenkins Group fiasco!Albert, sprinting down the hall, yelled at the top of his lungs to the employees."Move it, move it! Chase down Talia, bring her back, or kiss your jobs goodbye!"At his command, a dozen employees threw down their work and dashed for the stairs like their lives depended on it. W

"Yaneth Scott, we're not buddies, so zip it!" Talia frowned, her beauty marred by annoyance."Ha! Struck a nerve, did I? Are you mad because I'm right?" sneered Yaneth with a chilling laugh."Talia, who's this?" Howard asked, giving Yaneth a quick once-over before turning to Talia."She's Tasha's right-hand woman, the deputy manager of marketing," Talia replied."And who might this be? Your boyfriend?" Yaneth's eyes roamed over Howard, a warm thrill running through her.Howard was the epitome of her ideal man, from his handsome features to his impressive build. There was something about the regal way he carried himself that she found utterly captivating."Hi, I'm Yaneth. And you are?" she said, pausing to offer a hand with a sultry smile."You should apologize to Talia now, or you're going to be out of a job real soon," Howard said calmly.Yaneth paused, then let out a hearty laugh. "Well, aren't you funny? I like that," she said, her smile widening."You've got a minute to th

"What's all this about?" Talia gasped, taken aback by the sudden fuss."Talia, we messed up before. Just ease off and let it slide this time, okay? It won't happen again..." Kenneth chimed in."Look at me when you're talking!" Talia's brow creased, her gaze drifting involuntarily to Howard.She had a hunch that Howard was behind whatever was causing that stir."Talia, just say you'll forgive us, or Grandpa here will keep bowing and scraping..." Albert interjected, snatching a check for 700 thousand dollars from Kenneth."This is your cut of the dividends from that fifteen percent stake over the last five years. I'm handing it over now. Plus, you can return to the group tomorrow and step right into the Vice President of Marketing role."As he spoke, Tasha, lurking in the background, shot a venomous look their way, though she kept her composure."Speak. What's really going on?" Talia pressed, frowning deeper."Just take it, Talia," Howard urged with a casual smile, then turned to

Chapter 94

Walter's father had moved mountains to land that contract. He called in favors left and right, and shelled out a fortune to clinch it. If it fell through, Walter's world would come crashing down, and his father... Well, he would disown Walter, no doubt."Oh? The mighty Beech family comes crawling?" Howard's smirk was as icy as the Arctic."I... I'm truly sorry, I admit it. I'm begging you..." Walter's apologies spilled out in a torrent.After his plea, he scanned the room desperately. Spotting Tasha, he made a beeline for her. "Tasha, please, talk to Mr. Lincoln for me! Get him to forgive me...""Get out of my face, you loser!" Tasha's kick sent him sprawling.She was done with Walter. After all the time she had wasted on him, doing his bidding, and he had the gall to ask for her help? She was so angry that she could stab him!"Mr. Albert Jenkins, please, I'm begging you! Talk to Mr. Lincoln for me..." Walter turned to Albert, pleading for a lifeline."Mr. Beech, you truly disap

"If it hadn't been for Howard, I wouldn't have seen a dime," said Talia with a grateful smile, briefly recounting the events."Man, Howard, you're incredible. Who do you even know at Mendorra Tower?" Yuffie gaped at Howard in awe.Howard chuckled. "A department manager there is a buddy of mine.""Yeah, right," Yuffie shot back, her eyebrows arched in disbelief. "Since when does a department manager have the clout to flip a contract on and off like a light switch?"Howard just grinned and shrugged. "That's beyond me.""Thank you, Howard!" Kaylee chimed in, her voice steadying after a wave of emotion."It's nothing much.""I owe you an apology. I was out of line before. Please, don't hold it against me.""Mrs. Jenkins, please. If anyone should be saying sorry, it's me. I'm the one who got you into this mess," Howard replied earnestly. "But I promise you, no one's going to push you around anymore. Not on my watch.""I believe you!" Kaylee nodded emphatically."Let's catch up lat

"Thanks a bunch, Mr. Troy!" replied Jolie with a seductive smile.She was a sight to behold with her upper half adorned in a plunging sweater, complemented by a white gold necklace that graced her neck. Her lower half was encased in form-fitting jeans, showcasing her voluptuous figure."Jolie, isn't your club opening next month?" another suave gentleman inquired, his gaze lingering as he gulped."You're right, Mr. Abbott. Make sure you're there for the grand opening!" Jolie answered with a playful grin."Wouldn't miss it for the world!" he declared, nodding emphatically. "I'll sign up for the top-tier membership right away. I'll be there daily, just to see you, Jolie!"Jolie's laughter was light and infectious. "I appreciate it, Mr. Abbott!""Jolie, it's been just a month, but you look even more radiant!" A lady adorned in jewels approached with her wine glass. "Seems like Yadon and Quentin have been keeping busy!""Madam Carlson, you're the one who's ageless!" Jolie chuckled, t

"Uh-oh." Jolie's face turned to stone as she witnessed the audacity before her.For five years, no one dared to cross her like that. They were flying too close to the sun!In her mind, she had already sealed their fate. Whatever their reasons, they had signed their death warrants by challenging her."These idiots are looking for an early grave!" The black-suited bodyguards hesitated before he lunged at the pair with a flick of their electric batons.Thud! Thud! Thud!The eight bodyguards were downed in a heartbeat—sprawled on the floor, heaving and gasping for air.The crowd gasped. The display of skill was nothing short of impressive."Outrageous! Who do you think you are?! And do you even know where you stand?" The sycophantic young man pointed at them, his voice thundering with rage. "Disappear now, or you'll wish you had!"Whoosh!Before he could finish, a swift breeze from Howard's fingertips sent the young man's index finger tumbling to the ground, blood jetting out in a

Jolie leveled the gun at Howard's brow. "Think you're hot stuff, huh? Let's see you strut now!""Think these guns are your ticket to safety?" Howard's face was the picture of serenity."You're pushing it, big time!" Jolie was irked by Howard's unflappable demeanor under the gunpoint. She then warned, "Apologize now, or it's a one-way trip to hell for you!""Given your bravado, I'll grant you one shot," Howard said, his voice as detached as ice."You're clueless about your own mortality!" Jolie, teetering on the edge of fury, glared and squeezed the trigger.Bang!The gunshot reverberated across the courtyard. A collective gasp rippled through the crowd, their faces morphing with fear once more.Jolie dared to attempt murder in full view of an audience—utterly brazen!However, in the next instant, everyone's faces registered pure shock.Clink!The bullet, as if bewitched, plummeted to the ground mere inches from Howard, ringing out with a metallic ping.What in the world!?

Aaron glanced at Howard and his companion before hitting the answer button on his phone.Whatever was said on the other end knocked the wind out of him. In less than two minutes, he collapsed to the ground and turned pale out of sheer panic.How on earth had he gotten on the Shadow Sect's radar? He knew, right then and there, that he was done for.Given his past deeds, even if he managed to stay alive, he would likely spend the rest of his days behind bars."Try to do better in your next life," Howard said with an indifferent look, then turned and headed for the car.Yoel, with the still-unconscious Jolie in tow, did not waste any time following him.40 minutes later, they were at Saint Mount Cemetery.Yoel dumped Jolie unceremoniously in front of Howard's foster father's gravestone and gave her a couple of sharp slaps to the face.Waking up, Jolie's eyes fluttered open. "Where am I?"As her gaze fell on the gravestone, she screamed, "What the hell?! Why'd you drag me to a gra

Chapter 100

Jolie's scream echoed Howard's grim promise, but it was cut short. A spray of blood misted in front of the tombstone before silence returned.Howard's eyes brimmed with tears, his voice thick with emotion. "Dad, Jolie's gone to make her peace with you. Whether you forgive her, well, that's your call."Also, tonight, I'm bringing everyone involved in that mess to say they're sorry." He straightened up, bowed three times with deep reverence, and then gave his next order.When he returned to the car, Howard's gaze was steely as he addressed Yoel, "Let the Judge know, we're heading to the Austins'.""Got it!" Yoel replied, his nod full of gravity.…At six o'clock, the Austin mansion was tense. The ashen-face Terry sat on the couch, surrounded by the family's inner circle."Any word on Lucas, little bro?" Terry's voice was heavy with concern."Nothing." Vonn shook his head. "Been calling since yesterday. No answer.""I've had people check his usual spots, too. No sign of him, and
