Rodrick was sweating profusely. He kept signaling at Arian and even walked toward him."Rodrick, come and sit by me. Isaac, you too!" said Ethan abruptly. Rodrick halted.Arian's eyelid twitched furiously—he understood Ethan's intention immediately.Nevertheless, this matter had to be handled impartially.Arian's subordinate forwarded the email to the technical department, and they received the results within half an hour.Arian answered his phone with a frown. Then he shut his eyes and sighed. He walked to Ethan and whispered, "Mr. Grannel, we've got the results. The voice belonged to Rodrick, and the one he spoke to was someone on his security force team."Ethan waved, and Arian took a few steps backward."Isaac, do me a favor and allow me to handle this issue. Alright?"Rodrick's face paled. He trembled and looked at Ethan, horrified."That depends on your course of action." Isaac smiled.Ethan gestured, and one of the men in suits briskly stepped forward, taking out a not

One of the youngsters roared and darted toward her, grabbing her hair with one hand and smashing her ribs with the hammer in his other hand.Crack!The beggar shrieked and coughed up blood, her body slumping to the ground."You're insane! She's just a beggar. What would we do if she dies?" The other thief reprimanded him."Who'll care about a beggar? What could I have done? She ruined our plans!""C'mon, let's go." The other thief heard footsteps approaching and anxiously grabbed his accomplice as they fled.Two security guards jogged over. They were dumbfounded when they saw the beggar curled up on the ground and the broken car window.Just then, Allegra and Emily exited the elevator in the underground garage, having finished their meeting. They saw the figure on the ground.Allegra was stunned. She trotted over."Miss Booth, th—there were thieves after your car."Allegra ignored him. She squatted by the beggar, her hand trembling as she swept her greasy hair aside. She jolt

"What's the good news, Dad?" asked Allegra."The Association of Fashion Designers is organizing an entrepreneurs summit at Sunton. It's a nationwide forum for the industry! I just received the invitation! It's for a few days, and I can take two family members on the trip with me."At the dining table, Eugene looked troubled. "But what should I do with the invitation for family members?""Take Mom with you. She's been unwell these days," said Allegra as she served Isabella's food.Isaac frowned slightly. "Where's the location?""At Sunton, beside Westlake. I heard the scenery is remarkable," said Eugene, clearly excited. Suddenly, he looked at Isaac and said, "Isaac, perhaps you and Ally can go with me. Take it as a vacation.""Who's going to look after Isabella if he goes? I can't go either. Just take Mom with you!" Allegra glanced at Isaac."I'll have to join the meeting, and your mom doesn't really speak to me. Sigh. Or maybe you can go with your mom, Ally? Everything's paid f

"Ugh! Please, I beg you. I won't do it again. I won't. Please…"Seeing Elio's terrified expression, Beefy Bob hurled him onto the ground and glared at the two subordinates. They were so scared that they fell to their knees.Beefy Bob bent down and grabbed the throat of the man who'd spoken earlier. He said coldly, "You sent those men after Allegra, didn't you?"Crack!Beefy Bob broke his neck before he could answer.Elio's legs gave way, and he crashed onto the floor. The surviving subordinate lost control of his bowels, wetting his pants as he covered his mouth, horrified."This is a warning for you. Do anything stupid, and you'll end up like that guy." Beefy Bob shot Elio a glance and left.Nearly five minutes passed before Elio regained his senses, glowering. He mumbled, "Bastard. You should've killed me. Now, it's my turn."He pulled out his phone, hands shaking, and called a number. "Uncle Witt, I want to hire the best fighters from Canaan Sect. Yes, someone attempted to m

"A—Ally has been kidnapped! You were still asleep then!" Margaret cried.The fuck?Eugene was wide awake at once. "Quick, call the police! I'll call Isaac!"Then, Eugene rushed inside and hurriedly dialed Isaac's number.Isaac answered the call at once. Eugene said shakily, "Isaac, A—Ally…""I know. I'm already on the way to the airport. Please take care of yourselves; I'll handle the rest." Isaac hung up afterward."Fuck, we'd just arrived, and now this happened. We should've just listened to Isaac," Eugene said angrily as he slapped the table in frustration.In a mansion close to Westlake, Beefy Bob was all tied up like a hog as three elders transported him into the living hall. There was still blood trickling from his lips.Elio was sitting on the couch with his legs propped up. He laughed at Beefy Bob and pointed upstairs, saying, "Your boss' little wifey is in my room right now. I'm not going to kill you. I'm just putting you in the room next to mine. There's a one-way mirror in t
