Isaac called Tara out to talk. Although this 18-year-old girl never had formal education, her clear gaze showed a maturity far exceeded those of her peers.No one knew what Isaac said to Tara, but after a while, Tara went back inside, crying.“Beefy Bob, come here. Let’s give the father and daughter some time alone!” Isaac shouted from the doorway.Soon enough, an intense debate ensued inside, followed by Tara’s cries. Beefy Bob stood at the door, smoking; from time to time, he would turn his head to look inside the house. Looking at Isaac’s perfect composure, he felt his heart beat like a drum.Not long after, the door opened. Tara walked out and said, “Isaac, my father has agreed.”“Tara, thank you for trusting me. I won’t let you down.” Seeing Tara’s look of worry, Isaac patted her shoulder.It was already midnight when they made their way back to Cloud City. Beefy Bob turned his head and asked, “Isaac, what did you say to Tara?”“I told her that after we cure her parents’ af

Stephan’s eyes brightened when he saw these five uniformed men with epaulets on their shoulders and serious looks on their faces.“This is army veteran Stephan Rochat.” Beefy Bob pointed at him.A middle-aged man glanced at Stephan, frowning. Then, he stood at attention and gave Stephan a military salute.“Mr. Rochat, we are members of the Special Investigation Unit from the military court of Northland. We require your cooperation.”Stephan stood up, returned the salute, and limped over to give this officer a firm handshake. Nodding, he said, “I will cooperate.”Less than 20 minutes later, the investigation was over. Beefy Bob nodded toward Isaac and said softly, “Isaac, the arrest list has already been confirmed. There are a total of 86 people who were the backbone supporting the Kenne family. It may take up to two hours for the others to come from Northland. I’m worried the Kenne family will catch wind of this and run,” he expressed his concern.At that moment, Harry walked ove

Right then, Stephan couldn’t hold back anymore. Trembling from head to toe, he stared at Horace with red eyes and roared angrily, “Horace, you piece of shit, do you not remember us? Do you not remember my wife, Carly Vaness? You were the one who crippled my legs.”Carly was shaking, her eyes filled with terror. Occasionally, she would sneak a glance at Horace before immediately burying her face in her daughter’s body, gripping her daughter’s arms so tightly that her knuckles turned white from the sheer force of her grip.When Horace heard this, he looked at Stephan coldly.“Haha, of course I remember. So what? This is my home. Do you think you can take revenge on me just because you followed Isaac here? What a joke.” Horace was brimming with arrogance. “Isaac, didn’t you say you’d make my entire family disappear from Aurum County? Come on, then. I’d like to see you try. If you don’t kill me today, then I’ll kill you tomorrow, and the entire Cloud City will fall into my family’s hand

When Isaac halted his car at the entrance of a neighborhood in Aurum County, two armed guards stopped him.Those living in this neighborhood were all big shots in Southland. Hence, the security here was considered the strictest in the entire province. Isaac was here as a visitor, so naturally, he wouldn’t force his way in. Nonetheless, he quickly spotted Louis jogging over to him.Louis gave him directions—he drove past villa after villa before stopping at the very last one. It was the residence of Connor Hart, the governor of Southland.According to Louis, Mr. Hart had come here two years ago from the provincial capital and had a very powerful background.A man in his fifties wearing a white shirt and a knitted vest stood on the steps. He gave Isaac a slight smile.When Louis saw that his boss had personally come outside to welcome his visitor, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately jogged over.He had worked for Mr. Hart for two years, and he had never seen him come outsi

Seeing his son’s appearance, Connor felt his heart break. He pointed at Isaac and huffily said, “Didn’t you say you couldn’t find a job? Well, I found you one. From now on, you’ll be his personal assistant.”Cameron’s mouth twitched. He stepped forward and regarded Isaac with a scrutinizing, unsatisfied gaze.“Dad, you want me to be this guy’s personal assistant? Are you joking?” Cameron complained loudly. Clearly, he didn’t have a good opinion of his new boss.At that moment, Isaac grabbed Cameron’s right index finger with his right hand. In a cold voice, he said, “Didn’t anyone tell you that pointing at your boss like this is disrespectful?”“What the fuck? How dare you lay a hand on me? You sure have the guts…” Before he could finish his sentence, Isaac bent his finger to the right.Cameron let out a yelp as a sharp pain radiated from his index finger. He knelt on the floor, his face filled with agony.Connor’s expression changed, but he still stopped himself from saying anyth
