Over ten minutes later, the two arrived at a large square.The closely packed stalls were adorned with twinkling lanterns, carrying a nostalgic atmosphere.Many customers surrounded each stall."It's bustling, but not as much as before. I remember the last time I came here, it was so crowded, just like an anthill!"Adela looked at the scene and reminisced, a faint smile appearing on her lips."When was the last time you came here?""Probably about ten years ago." Adela said without thinking.Jonathan glanced at her, raising his eyebrows slightly: "Ten years ago?"Adela nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, I came with my father… Don't say more. Let me treat you to some grilled food! When my father was alive, he loved grilled food and beer the most. Last time, my father secretly took me here without telling my mother."Adela pulled Jonathan towards a grilled food stall. Following her, Jonathan finally understood why Adela had called him out so late.It turned out that she was missing someone.As

"Mr. Wang, if you can't progress with Adela, don't leave her to cease! If you don't like Adela, you must prefer a different type of girl, right? What do you think of Mr. Dermot's sister?"At this point, Leighton said: "Mr. Wang, just look at Mr. Dermot's sister. She's stunning, and she comes from a wealthy family as well. I think the two of you would make a great couple! Why not think about it? Adela with Mr. Dermot as one pair, and you with Miss Lydia as another - it would be perfect!""Uncle, will you stop it!" Adela could no longer keep her calm upon hearing his vulgar matchmaking attempts.However, Lydia nodded as if she was considering something and said: "I think it's a good idea!""The Harris family? I don't like him, so stop daydreaming." Adela said, her anger flaring."Are you upset? Even though I'm not a kingpin in San Diego, I'm not that insignificant either. Jonathan, don't refuse a toast or be forced to drink a penalty! I know you're arrogant because you have money, but l

Two o’clock in the afternoon.Jonathan arrived punctually at the CAB club, where a staff member led him to Jacob’s office.The other man had been waiting for quite some time.“The ocean’s waves push forward, one after another. Seeing Mr. Wang’s demeanor, all I can think is that I’m getting old. The future still belongs to young men like you.” he said.Jacob smiled and stood up to greet him, extending a hand and saying: “Please, have a seat!”Jonathan responded with a beaming smile: “Of course, not a problem.”Jonathan stared intently at Jacob while Jacob glared back at him angrily. Their eyes locked, neither willing to back down or show any sign of weakness.People can also have a rebellious streak.Perhaps Jacob didn’t have strong feelings for Lydia, only having her bear a son.The child growing inside Lydia was the essence of him bloodline.After a while, Jonathan suddenly burst out laughing, breaking the silence.He said: “With Jacob’s current status, there’s no need to fear Whelan

At this point, Jonathan opened the bottle and took a sniff.Jonathan frowned slightly: "Sedatives mixed with aphrodisiacs."Yikes!Esther's face turned pale.She knew who it was.But she couldn't believe that person would stoop so low!"Jonathan, this matter doesn't concern you, so don't ask too much. I'll handle it myself."It seemed that person had an unusual background, so Esther didn't want Jonathan to get involved.Jonathan didn't want to dig deeper, so he nodded and stood up: "It's getting late, Ms. Esther. If fate allows, we'll meet again."After Jonathan left, Esther murmured: "He said he's my die-hard fan, but as soon as he hears about trouble, he runs away."Although Esther seemed annoyed, she wasn't too upset, as this was a common occurrence.Moreover, if it weren't for Jonathan, she would have been in grave danger this time.Drinking bottled water could have had dire consequences.She couldn't believe Knox would be so audacious. After failing to win her heart multiple time

Handing over San Diego and all its industries?Knox's mouth dropped open, unable to comprehend the situation.The most crucial aspect was that Knox recognized Jonathan's status could make Mr. Lewis - who was incredibly influential, force him to be deferential.He had also heard of the organization called Top-Sky House.Damn, it!To retaliate against someone with such a terrifying background was a challenge. Knox should consider himself lucky if he wasn't targeted for revenge!Jonathan glanced at Jacob and slowly lit a cigarette. Holding it between his fingers, he spoke harmlessly: "Jacob, don't forget. If you lose, you must return everything you took from Top-Sky House, and I will also take your legs. Is kneeling really that important compared to spending the rest of your life in a wheelchair?"Bang!Suddenly remembering the price of losing included his legs, Jacob's face involuntarily turned extremely grim."You...you shouldn't bully others too much!"Jonathan's smile deepened as he
