Chapter 671 Stomach Problems

Gonzalec knew that the medicine wouldn't cause any side effects, but he wouldn't tell them the truth because of Williams orders. He said while stroking his head, "I heard my grandfather say that there will be side effects if the vermin is not used well." This made Lucian glance at Devon, and she immediately asked, "Is there an antidote for it?" "There should be. It was made by my grandfather, so he should know about it, and I have to ask him first," he answered, deliberately pretending to know nothing, and then asked, "Who had side effects from the vermin?" "The guest who bought the medicine has some symptoms after taking the medicine, so I'm here to inquire about it." "The side-effects are life-threatening! Are you sure it's side effects from the vermin?" He asked.  "I'm not completely sure," Devon was anxious when he heard that. Even though he didn't intend to talk, he immediately said, "Can you describe the specific symptoms of the side effects?"

Chapter 672 The Rich Are Different

Marcus agreed with a smile on his face, and William instructed Silas, "It looks like Devon still has his guard up because he's arranging for someone to accompany Gonzalec to visit his grandfather. Get ahead of them and ask his grandfather about the blood vermin first, then we'll wait for them." "Okay, I'll arrange it right away!" Silas nodded and then asked him, "Mr. Howard, Devon definitely wants to use the blood vermin against you. The name itself sounds so nasty, so it should be something really bad. You have to be careful to not come into contact with it... Should I ask Gonzalec's grandfather to give them a fake one?" William shook his head and said, "No, it has to be real! It won't be fun if it's fake! All you need to do is ask him about the details of the blood vermin and it'll be fine." Seeing Valeria's worried face, he reached out to hold her hand, "Don't worry, I was unaware of Natasya's schemes back then, so she had the opportunity to take advantage of me. N

Chapter 673 You'll Ruin Your Eyes

Paisley did not know anything about what had happened to Hardy. When she received the call, she was still sleeping soundly under her blanket. Hearing that he was in the police station, she immediately woke up and called Bevan. However, Bevan's phone was confiscated, so he could not be reached.  She had no choice but to call the Acma Corporation's lawyer and asked him to go to the police station immediately. She arrived one step ahead of him. When she saw Hardy, who was red with embarrassment and fury, she took a step back in fright.  "Brother? Why are you so in a mess?"  After being brought to the police station, Hardy had lost all of his dignity. Seeing his sister, he asked eagerly, "Where is Bevan? Where the hell did he go? Why didn't he come with you?" "I couldn't reach him through his phone, and I don't know where he is." Hearing her explanation, he was sure that something had happened to him, so he said in a hoarse voice, "Call the l

Chapter 674 Compromise

Seeing Hardy vomiting out a mouthful of blood, Paisley screamed in shock. Hardy, on the other hand, felt his thoughts clearing up, and he could think better. Just now, his mind was clouded with anger, but felt much better now that he had spat out the blood.  Hardy realized that being stubborn wouldn't do him any good. If the disgusting video of him was spread to the public, his whole life would be over, and his father would never let him continue to be the president of the Acma Corporation.  He was not the only son of the Anthony family. His brothers had always been targeting his position with hostility. In his current position, he could do whatever he wanted. However, if he lost his reputation and power, he would be left with nothing. When the time comes, nothing would be able to save him.  After thinking it through, he sighed in relief and said to Paisley, "Call Talitha and tell her that I agree to all of her requirements!" "Brother!" She did

Chapter 675 Determined to Not Anger Her

Not long after Acma Corporation's statement had been released, Devon called an acquaintance of his to release Hardy and his men. Hardy sighed pitifully after leaving the police station, "I swear that I will get my revenge on Devon and his family one day!" After he said that, he was frightened by his reflection on the car window, "This... I..." His face, which he had always been proud of, was smeared with paint like a clown's. This was how he looked like the whole time in the police station! No wonder his interrogators gave him weird looks. When he thought of the video on Paisley's phone of him being humiliated by those old women, he fainted due to his intense anger.  Hearing that Hardy had passed out, William burst into laughter. "He couldn't stand this little bit of humiliation? Speaking of which, I even held back this time! If I were to spread those videos online, he would probably die from embarrassment!" "There's a saying that evil people have lo

Chapter 676 Snooping Around

William knew that he couldn't ask too much because he faked his amnesia, if he did, people would suspect him. But he couldn't not do anything about it. He subtly hinted Sammuel, trusting that he was loyal to Fandrey, so he would relay his message with full accuracy. Then, Fandrey will make the inferences himself.  As he thought about it, he looked at Sammuel and said, "You know that Natasya's uncle is in jail and waiting for his death sentence, right?" "I know, I heard that Declan has done many evil deeds to bear these consequences." "That's true, Devon has been working with Raelyn's company to smuggle and sell illegal drugs here, and those drugs are a menace to society." "Illegal drugs? What kinds?" Sammuel's heart thumped. It was impossible for William to ask about the Floyd family's business for no reason, let alone randomly mentioning the illegal drugs, so he immediately asked. "I don't know what kind of illegal drugs they are, but I know that th

Chapter 677 Turn Over A New Leaf

"Stop!" Veronica abruptly interrupted her, "Angel, you can't talk nonsense like this, This is a big deal. If your grandfather finds out that you've been eavesdropping on him, he'll scold you to death." Angel looked at her serious expression and immediately defended herself, "I wasn't eavesdropping! I just happened to hear it. Besides, I'm only telling you, you won't snitch on me to grandpa, right?" "Of course not, but you can't repeat this behavior in the future, understand?" Veronica warned. "I won't, but Mom, I really want to go back and take care of William, but grandpa won't let me. What should I do?" "My child, what are you thinking? William is part of the Howard family, and they aren't just any ordinary family, there are probably many people taking care of him right now. Why would he need you?" "That's different, the people in the Howard family probably don't treat him as well as us. Besides, Natasya keeps on seducing him. Her whole family is suspici

Chapter 678 Loud Discussion

Silas reached home at dawn the next day and reported everything to William.  "Did Gonzalec and Devon's men came back as well?" William asked. "They came back on the same flight as me. They're probably on the way to meet Devon with the blood vermin and croton antidote," Silas answered with a smile. "That's good! We're finally getting to the interesting part," William smiled and dismissed Silas because he was worried that he would be too tired, "You've worked hard, so you can go and rest!" "I'm not tired, I already rested on the plane," Silas replied, "Sir William, do you want me to go to the hospital to inquire about it?" "You don't have to, I'll arrange someone else to do it." Since William insisted that he rested, he left.  William called Bobby and said, "Arrange two people to go to the hospital to check out the situation." As he was on the phone, Valeria rubbed her eyes and opened the door, "Honey, what are you doing again?" "You'

Chapter 679 Blocking Our Way

News of Natasya with an upset stomach spread like wildfire and ruined her reputation. By the time she woke up, everyone already knew about it. Someone had written a specific headline that went like, "Natasya, self-proclaimed to be the prettiest person in Ruthorham, now the sh*ttiest person in Ruthorham," the same headline was published everywhere.  Beautiful pictures of her were used, but people edited it with pictures of feces to make it disgusting and funny.  The title "Sh*ttiest person in Ruthorham" pushed her fame to new heights, and her reputation was completely destroyed. When Valeria saw the title, she wheezed while laughing. William held her in his arms and massaged her stomach, "Alright, cut it out, if you continue laughing like this, it will hurt the baby." "No, it won't. If I'm happy, the baby will be happy too. Hahaha, I feel so good!" She still couldn't control herself, "Hubby, did you get someone to come up with the nickname "Sh*t

Chapter 680 Not Ordinary People

Abbie got in the car and started the engine. Then, she spat fiercely, "We have such bad luck! If you hadn't stopped me back there, I would have beaten Talitha up!" "You can't hit her! She's pregnant now. If something bad happened to her child, it would be your fault, and we're still waiting to use her pregnancy to make trouble!" Valeria smiled. "Ah, you stopped me because of that?" Abbie came to a realization, "I was wondering why you were so calm when you saw them, you must have really fought the urge to hit that b*tch!" "Yes, I wanted to hit both her and her sister, but I can't be impulsive in order for my plan to succeed. It just began, so I can't mess it up." They laughed and chatted all the way until they reached the famous Spanish restaurant in B City. It was noontime for lunch, so the traffic outside was very congested. After a little while, Abbie found an empty spot to park her car and pulled Valeria straight to the restaurant. The private room the
