The bones in Bill's limbs were shattered in this instant. They hung limp. Even a three-year-old could easily kill him right now."I've shredded the muscles and tendons in your limbs; don't even dream of recovery. I used a special technique, so not even Eason Norris will be able to save you. Get ready to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair," Marcus said coldly.Bill screamed. The excruciating pain almost made him pass out."I told you I wouldn't let you die so easily." Marcus sneered. "This is the price you have to pay for setting your sights on my woman. Now, tell me—where is Octavius?""He should be back at Forme Corporation," Bill said. He couldn't take the pain and hoped his truthfulness would make Marcus have mercy on him.Unfortunately, Marcus left the room without sparing him another glance. Bill was in despair.Octavius, who had headed back to Forme Corporation, called Bill when he figured it had been enough time for him to have his fun with Vivian. After all, he w

Before Lisa could say anything, Marcus agreed. "Deal!"His swift agreement made Lisa and Vivian exchange a look. Lisa dragged him aside and said grumpily, "Who said you could make that decision on our behalf?""Exactly!" Lincoln piped up. "You're just a matrilocal son-in-law. Who gave you the right to speak for us?""Relax, Mom, Dad." Marcus looked calm. "We'll definitely be able to attend the commander-in-chief's welcome party.""Do you think we can attend just because you say we can?" Lisa grumbled. "Who do you think we are, the commander-in-chief's special guests? How ridiculous!""Mom, Marcus was just trying to stand up for our family," Vivian said."As if!" Lisa looked murderous at the thought of being humiliated again. "I think he's just trying to make us look worse than we already do!"Vivian fell silent. She recently felt like there was something magical about Marcus. It was as if everything he said would somehow come true. Still, this was the commander-in-chief's welcom

Steven and Luna lost interest in making fun of Marcus and the others when they saw this. They quickly carried Heath, who'd fainted again, home.They didn't dare to tell Norman and Shirley the truth. Instead, they lied and said Heath was on a break. The rest of the family continued to sing Heath's praises.After all, Mike and Matilda had Zeke as their son-in-law. To the Childe family, Zeke was a member of the commander-in-chief's personal troops. Since Heath had managed to get into the boot camp, they couldn't let anyone know about him getting kicked out. He couldn't lose to Zeke.A few days later, Zeke had a break. He returned to the Childe residence for a short stay. Norman and Shirley were pleased to see him and had the rest of the family gather for a meal.It wasn't every day that the Childe family had both Zeke and Heath at home. Howard and Brad were already thinking of ways to suck up to them; Marcus and the others had yet to arrive."I'm really envious of you for getting int

"Is that how you treat regular citizens?" The staff's arrogance incensed Marcus further. "Anyway, you don't need to bother about who I am. I'm not gonna let this matter slide. I'd like to see whether Merania's citizens mean nothing to civil servants when compared to foreigners!""Well said, Marcus!" Even Lisa, who usually looked down on Marcus, looked approving."Man, you make it sound like you're my boss." The staff sneered. "Stop making yourself out to be some big shot when you're not. If you really were someone important, why would your mother-in-law need to wait in line to get some documents stamped?""So, you're saying the family members of important officials can enjoy special privileges? And so can foreigners? Who's brainwashed you guys to think like that?" Marcus pulled his phone out. "I'm not gonna waste my time on you. I'll have your boss speak to you.""The hell?" The staff couldn't help snickering when he saw this. "Are you actually gonna call my boss or something? He's

"Hey, did you get the job done?"Lewis asked a truck driver who came to report the situation inside an abandoned factory."I've confirmed it. Even if she's not dead, she will be crippled," the truck driver nodded and said."Great!" Lewis took out a stack of cash and handed it to the truck driver. "This is your reward. Use the money and go enjoy life in another city.""Thank you, Mr. Lewis!" The truck driver was full of joy after receiving the money. "Sure, Mr. Lewis! I'll leave Northfort immediately!"As the truck driver was walking outside, Lewis threw a dart that hit the truck driver's back. The truck driver fell and bled to death."Lewis, why did you kill him?" Davy was shocked."Dead men tell no tales," Lewis said calmly.Meanwhile, Marcus just drove past a traffic light. He received a call from Vivian and answered it. However, no one was speaking on the other end."Did something happen?" Marcus frowned. He turned the car around and rushed toward Vivian.Coincidentally, h
