Oops, I've Been Exposed/Lorelei Thunder
Their whole family would starve! Behind Trudy, Brutus was mad as well. "Six million dollars for a membership card? That's daylight robbery! Are you running a restaurant or a scam syndicate?"The host frowned and explained, "This is the rule set by Royal Delicacies. If you find it steep, you may choose a lower-level membership and will still be eligible to dine here. The only difference is the treatment you'll receive.""A lower level? How much is that? Never mind, I'll register for the lowest level. How much does that cost?" Trudy asked."One million dollars," the host answered."And you bloody deny being a scam syndicate? One million dollars is enough for our family expenses for years!" Trudy cursed ungraciously.The host finally lost his patience and said, "That's the yearly minimum spending in our restaurant. If you can't achieve that, your membership will be canceled. "Please leave if you're not registering for the membership. Don't get in the way of our usual operations."

If Brutus had encountered this in the past, he wouldn't have hesitated to start a fistfight with Woody. However, considering that there were so many wealthy guests around, starting a fight would only tarnish their family and Pamela's reputation, so he kept his anger away.But unbeknownst to him, this had saved his life instead. After all, even if he started a fight with ten people against Woody, he would still be on the losing end."Woody, do you even compare to us?" Brutus arrogantly was acting like a person of authority. "Kurt is a silver member of this restaurant, and that makes us Royal Delicacies' esteemed guests."Trudy put on a haughty face and belittled Woody too, saying, "Only members are allowed to enter. Even the lowest membership, the bronze card, cost one million dollars. Do you have that much money?"Woody gave her a shrug. "I didn't bring my cards when I left the house."Dickson laughed loudly and chimed in, "Even if you did, do you have one million dollars in you

The manager's words shocked everyone present. Did he just say that Woody was the new owner of Royal Delicacies?"Are you kidding? It's impossible that he's your boss. Did you mistake him for someone else?" Trudy was unable to accept this. In her opinion, Woody was supposed to be the trash at the lowest level of society. Only with this in mind could she feel superior to him and forever trample him beneath her feet.The manager snorted. "Even if I don't recognize my family members, I'd definitely remember my boss' face.""Yes, Mr. Henderson is our new boss," the host chirped in.In order to avoid the same fake card incident from occurring again, Helen had sent Woody's picture to all the employees in the morning and asked them to remember his face.Then, in the afternoon, when the employees returned to work, all the leaders from each department checked on whether or not everyone had recognized Woody. And anyone who couldn't remember his face would face three days of bonus deduc

Woody's kindness was mistaken as ill-intentions instead. But nevertheless, his conscience was clear. And since they didn't appreciate his advice, he wasn't going to waste his breath on them."This way to your dedicated elevator, sir," the manager said, showing the way.After that, Woody quickly left the York family behind. "Just look at how arrogant he is!" Kurt started talking bad about Woody. "That guy just doesn't want to see you guys do well. He's just a sour grape."Initially, Kurt had wanted to take advantage of his status as a silver member to put Woody down and impress the Yorks. But to his dismay, Woody was now the boss of Royal Delicacies."We know all too well how much Woody is worth," Trudy said. "Don't worry, Kurt. We won't believe his lies."A smile appeared on Kurt's face as he said, "I trust that everyone has the most basic judgment and will not believe the words of a despicable man."Brutus frowned. "Say, how did Woody become the boss of Royal Delicacies? Cou

Pausing, Kurt pretended to give it some thought before lifting his head and saying, "5%.""What? That's too little! We're talking about 20 million dollars here. And it's all cold, hard cash!" Trudy exclaimed with wide eyes.Kurt furrowed his brows. "That's quite a lot. But don't forget that just the prescription alone is worth hundreds of millions. Also, the channels that we've worked hard to build over the years, sales, and others are all intangible assets."Taking my relationship with Pamela into consideration, I'm offering you this much. If it were someone else, I wouldn't even offer them 4%."I have no idea what my father will say about me doing this, but I'm pretty sure that he'll call me a wastrel."Pamela and Miriam exchanged a look. It was true that the market value of Donnel Corporations was around one billion dollars. Hence, 20 million dollars for 5% of its share was a reasonable number.And considering the influence after the new drug was launched in addition to the

Two points led Helen to have such a guess. Firstly, using recuperating as an excuse, Logan had returned to Kingsvale only to suddenly die from a serious illness soon after.According to the news that the Business Association of Darea had released, Logan had sustained serious injuries from the kidnapping episode in Tiusto and had succumbed to them after his return to Kingsvale.However, Helen was acutely aware that Logan was brought back to life by Woody because she was there when it happened.After all, when the Majestic Ruler appeared, even death ran away in fear. Not even death could take the life of a person Woody had saved.In addition, given Logan's age and physical condition, it wouldn't be an issue for him to live to his 70s or 80s.So, Logan's strange death and the Business Association's deliberate effort to hide the truth afterward were enough to spark various guesses.Secondly, the president of the Business Association of Darea, Brayden, knew Woody as well. Back the

Although Marie dressed in professional office attire, her eyes had a clear and innocent light that couldn't be found in those who already had working experience."My mother doesn't need these tablets anymore, so I'm here to return them," she said.Instantly, Kurt put on a sad face and asked, "Did your mother pass away?"As long as a patient was still alive, their families wouldn't stop the medication easily. The Donnels had made a fortune out of selling the tablets, and they'd mostly made use of their kindness as a tactic similar to moral coercion.As the boss, Kurt was familiar with this marketing method that bankrupted many. And in the end, not only did their loved ones pass away, but the ones who were left behind had to continue suffering to pay their debts."It's not like that. My mother was hospitalized and is taking a prescription from the hospital. So, there's no need for these anymore." Marie lifted the bags in her hands and continued, "Besides the three boxes that were

"What should I tell you, Marie? Remember this lesson and don't act so recklessly again."Outside the police station, Marcus smiled bitterly and offered his sincere advice. "You're lucky this time because the upper management from the company knows the sheriff here. That's why he did us a favor and didn't press charges against you."If it had happened at any other time, you'd definitely be held for a while. You're still so young. Leaving a criminal record will not be helpful for your future development."Marie lowered her head with reddened eyes. "Thank you, Mr. Landon. I'll keep this in mind."Marcus sighed. He also felt that it was unfair to Marie. "Was this worth it over a few boxes of medication?" The police had told him clearly that some people in the queue had wanted to buy the drug from Marie, but she'd insisted on returning them and had even claimed that the drug was problematic. How else would the other party react?What was the point of returning an item? The final

"Don't forget that many people let their guards down at crucial times and slip into complacency. We shouldn't make the same mistake twice," Timothy said.Only then did Kurt become serious. He then picked up his phone and said, "I'll give Officer Roberts a call right now so that he can increase the punishment for that girl. "After that, we can use this incident to generate publicity and strengthen our buyers' confidence. At the same time, it can serve as a warning to the person who started the rumors. "With all that done, no one will dare to spout nonsense again."Timothy nodded in agreement. "That's a great idea! You've improved a lot to be able to turn the tables in our favor like this!"Satisfied and smug, Kurt returned the compliment, saying, "All thanks to your guidance, Dad!" Then, he made the call. "Hello, Officer Roberts. I think holding her up for seven days is too lenient. Let's make it 15 days… What did you say?"Kurt's face fell, and he raised his voice, "You re

When Marie left Woody's place to walk to the bus stop, the sky was already dark outside. Suddenly, she felt a chilly breeze on her back and subconsciously spun her head back to take a look.But upon seeing that there was nothing behind her, she shook her head and sniggered at herself. Why was she being so sensitive anyway?Perhaps the experience at the police station earlier had stressed her out, or maybe it was because of the dark and cold night.After Marie hopped onto the bus and left, the sound of a motorbike roaring to life echoed from behind the bushes, and a motorbike slowly rolled out.Then, two men in full helmets rode the motorbikes and followed the bus.Marie and Cassandra were renting a small flat that was built in the last century. Although they'd previously owned a house, they had to sell it to treat Cassandra's illness. So, the flat on the fourth floor with one bedroom and one living room was their current rental.Right after Marie unlocked her door, a figure
