Austin tilted his brows as he saw the wall slide open, revealing an lift.The lift exuded a soft brilliance that was comfortable to the eyes, and under the lead of James, the duo entered the lift.Checking that Austin was beside him, James set the floor number of where they were headed before retracting his hands.After a few minutes of uneventful silence, Austin felt the lift come to a halt as its door opened to the new floor.Still following James like a curious, obedient kid, Austin walked into the new floor. As soon as he stepped his feet to the floor, though… he froze.His eyes swept through the surroundings, his eyes twitching with mixed feelings.''This house won't stop surprising me, eh?'' He clicked his tongue, his eyes stuck on the fleet of cars.Contrary to what he imagined, James actually brought him to one of the private garages, and the car line-ups were breathtaking.''Thirty cars?'' Austin said in a hushed tone.''And what's up with the limited editions, good God.'' He

“Just watch how I handle this, eyesore,'' Alice, Austin's former mother-in-law said.After punching the phone screen a few times, she brought it to her ears, her face a shade of contempt and anticipation.Fortunately for her, whoever she was trying to call didn't disappoint as they answered after the second beep *Hello, Mr Thomas.'' Alice mustered a smile, caressing her short hair.“Yes, I was caught up in a tiny inconvenience, I don't know if you could be of assistance.'' she squeezed her face still maintaining her crooked smile.“Oh, what's that? And you can just call me Thomas,'' the voice from the other end said, his tone unreadable.“Ah… alright Thomas,'' she gulped in between giggles, her eyes glaring at Austin in disdain.“I fell into the hands of some damn scammers. Honestly, I didn't see this coming, and, and… they just ran away with quite a huge amount of money.'' Alice complained, her forehead creasing in annoyance.“Oh, which scanner is that?'' Thomas asked, his voice ree

The biting words stuck on Austin like a maggot. Yet, he didn't react.He watched as Alice led the nob, her shoulders raised, beaming with utter confidence.He shook his head, seeing her swift change in attitude. Even though she hadn't acted dejectedly that much previously, she still didn't dare enter the company, despite the support of the protesters. Moreover, she never had the thought of leading these people.However, things were different, she now had the support of a rich, young man. With him by her side, not only was Alice confident of getting a refund, but also thought of getting even more. Maybe if Thomas pressured them enough, they would vomit their money alongside damages.“Tsk.'' She clicked her tongue, her eyes looking rueful.“Money is absolute power when he speaks everyone obeys, without questioning.'' Her face reddened, picturing some scenes in her head.She couldn't help but wonder how sweet it would've been if her husband was a tycoon like Thomas, the CEO of an old mon

“Otherwise, you'll be shown your place.'' The husky, sinister voice clapped in Thomas' ears, making him shudder as his eyes turned towards the direction of the voice.“Huh?'' His eyes narrowed to a slit, as he saw the approaching figures from the upper floor.“Who are you?'' he asked, his domineering voice forever present.“Hmph.” Raphael snorted as he escorted the mafia boss down to the reception where the commotion was unfolding.“I'm asking again, who are you, or until I smack something in your ears.“ Thomas became agitated, his eyes turning murderous.The three reps, on the other hand, who Thomas mistook for the owners of the insurance company, heaved a sigh of relief.“Sir, you're here.'' They all bowed as Raphael's figure entered their view.They also glanced at the other person beside him, and they couldn't help but throw a questioning look at their boss.However, Raphael brushed past them, ignoring their gazes.Jacob, the mafia boss also ignored them and approached Thomas bef

Austin dashed forward at an inhuman speed as he grabbed Alice before anyone could even realize what just transpired.Jacob paused, seeing the gentleman in the corner flicker before returning to his original position with the bitch he was about to stump to death “Huh?'' He knitted his brows as his eyes remained fixed on Austin.The others had yet to realize what happened and the sound of clashes, and meat pounding against meat resonated in the room.After a few moments of clashes, the wall was brought down, and one could see a couple of hefty men flung out of the company, their bodies crashing into the ground.The elderly people who stood before the main entrance, waiting anxiously to see how the scene unfold, gasped, their faces drained of colour.Without them even realizing, they took a few steps back, distancing themselves from the unconscious men on the ground.Back in the room, Raphael also rose, seeing that the fight had escalated more than what he anticipated.“Mi-mister, will
