Harper stood angrily behind the door that was shut, locked, and bolted up from the inside.Serena hadn’t planned on coming home that night. She thought she would just tell her mother over the phone and let them think that she was going to be working overseas for some time. She’d come home maybe once or twice a year during festive celebrations, and that would be it.But after thinking for a while, she decided she wouldn’t want her parents to worry and overthink, so she’d made the trip home.However, as soon as she’d finished explaining to them, her father turned to her with the strictest expression on his face as berated her for getting involved with the wrong kind of people. He fiercely refused to let her go to Cantonne. She was just going to end up getting sold for her organs. He just knew it.Also, who did she think Nick Charter was?Nick Charter was one of the biggest celebrities he’d ever known. He wasn’t someone that Serena would ever be able to talk to, let alone sign on as an ac

After hanging up, Edward called Margaret and Andrew immediately. Then, he went upstairs and knocked on his daughter’s door.By the time Margaret and Andrew arrived with their suitcases in a hustle, Edward and his family had already finished packing.“Edward, why did you ask us to pack our bags and come here at this hour?” Margaret was surprised to see them like this.Edward gave a mean smile. “Margaret. Andy. Would you like to watch that jerk, Isaac’s death firsthand?”Margaret was stunned. Then, she nodded immediately. “Of course! But who is capable of that feat? I’d like nothing better than to see him tortured to death.”Although Isaac had been proven innocent, Edward had talked Margaret into believing that Isaac was behind the car accident that had almost taken her life.Andrew frowned and hesitated slightly. He met Edward’s eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, “Me too, obviously.”“Great. Then, let’s get going; it’s a show you’ll surely remember for eternity. When we return, n

The Neal family, Jordyn, Edward, and Old Brooks—none of them was aware that Isaac was scheming to replace Old Brooks while having grilled duck breasts with his daughter.Meanwhile, Edward and his family arrived at Seascape International Airport. Two MPVs picked them up and headed for a luxury hotel.Edward spotted Jordyn on a sofa once he entered the hotel. The cold woman was standing behind him.Edward walked up to him hastily and said respectfully, “Sir, I’ve brought my family here.”“Are Allegra’s mother and brother here too?” Jordyn nodded and scanned the people registering at the counter.“I followed your instructions and brought them along. They can’t wait to see Isaac die before their eyes!”“That’s for sure.” Jordyn nodded. “Alright. Go and have some rest. Someone will come to get you later.”Edward hesitated before asking, “Sir, is that jerk Isaac really coming to Eastwell?” “How can he not when Allegra’s in our hands?” Jordyn smirked and went toward an elevator for r

Hibiscus Pavilion ceased operation for the night. Old Brooks gathered all the heads and those ranked above on the fifth floor for an urgent briefing.He told them he was going out of town with Isaac and wasn’t sure when he would return. In his absence, his cousin, Zephyr Brooks, would be managing all his businesses and related affairs in Southland in his place.Those who had been with him from the start weren’t satisfied. Zephyr had joined much later. Even though he was Old Brooks’ cousin, it wasn’t acceptable for him to move up the ladder before them.However, they were aware of the events that led to Old Brooks’ title as “King of the Underground World”. So, when Old Brooks used Isaac as an excuse, no one dared to display dissatisfaction.After Old Brooks left with one of his trusted subordinates, Zephyr immediately took his place in his office.He drank a lot of liquor that night and even called two girls into the office.Squeals of laughter were heard coming from the office fr

Everyone had their guard up. Holden and the rest looked up with a clear intent to kill.Isaac and Beefy Bob leaped when the helicopter was 65 feet above the ground.There were dull thuds as they landed. Isaac and Beefy Bob straightened up and stood back to back as they scrutinized the Eastwell elite soldiers and the Neals.The helicopter left swiftly. Holden pointed at Isaac condescendingly and hollered, “Isaac Garten! Coming here when there are only two of you? Do you really think of yourself as invincible, or have you gone nuts?”“Holden Neal, I’ve made my point clear to Glenn. Did he fail to relay my message, or are you yearning for death?” Isaac calmly looked over at Holden.He saw Jordyn and the Goulds out of the corner of his eyes.“So, you’re Logan Owens’ son. Who could have known that you'd be such a troublemaker when I left you out that day!” Isaac’s eyes were burning with murderous intent.Jordyn snorted. “Isaac, you murdered my family. I can’t live on with dignity if
