Jerry sat calmly, savoring the wine in his hand. He leaned back and took a slow sip, relishing the rich taste. A smile spread across his wrinkled face. “This is truly exquisite.”His gaze swept over his companions seated before him. “The plan we’ve put in place—I’m certain it will succeed, and no one will ever know.”“This has been progressing smoothly. We’re going to reap a great fortune.” His laughter was met with the hearty chuckles of the others, who shared his confidence.One of his companions nodded in agreement. “You’re right. I’m sure this will work. And we’ll be profiting from not just one, but two of the most powerful families.”Several days later, beneath thousands of stars in the dark night sky, they enjoyed the sea breeze as it brushed against their faces.After leaning against the ship’s railing for a moment, Jerry made his way toward the table where his companions were seated.The table was lavishly set with a variety of fine dishes and drinks. Tonight, they were indulg

They were utterly shocked by Mason’s words. However, they refused to believe him, dismissing his claim as complete nonsense. To them, Mason was simply pretending to be the head of the Gilbert family to intimidate them and instill fear.But that would never happen. In fact, they were growing increasingly frustrated with everything Mason was saying.“That’s impossible!” Jerry rejected the notion outright. Even though he knew the Gilbert family was highly secretive, the idea of Mason being their leader was absurd.In their eyes, Mason was nothing more than a young man sent as an envoy of the Gilbert family.They were convinced that he was merely carrying out an assigned task. And they had to admit—Mason had succeeded.That was when they realized just how dangerous their situation had become. This could turn into a complete disaster for them.Jerry and Damian exchanged glances, silently communicating. A single nod from Damian was enough for Jerry to understand. They had to escape before t

Unconsciously, Mason had fallen asleep in the park. When he just woke up, Mason saw two police officers standing in front of him with cold expressions. The two officers seemed to want to intimidate him.Mason slowly got up. He looked at the two officers calmly.One of the officers played with the baton in his hand, his gaze scrutinizing Mason's appearance. He raised an eyebrow slightly and asked in a cold voice, “Why are you here?”“You should know that you can’t just sleep anywhere in the park,” the other officer emphasized.“Are you homeless?” After scanning Mason, the officer quickly corrected his statement. Mason didn’t look like a homeless person. His clothes were neat, and his hair was not messy. However, the officer continued his investigation. “Did you just take drugs?”They stared at him coldly, waiting for Mason's response.Mason shook his head slowly. “No. I just wanted to spend some time here,” he said calmly.At this moment, he realized that the two officers were very sus

The two police officers were still very doubtful of Mason, but they wanted to hear what Mason had to say.They both stood in front of Mason, blocking his way as he tried to leave. "Say what you need to say.""We want to hear it." Henry crossed his arms, giving a very serious look.Mason gave a faint grin, looking at the two officers casually. "Just leave everything regarding the pedophile case to me.""I'll find him quickly." Mason said it with full confidence. "I only need half a day to uncover everything."It wasn't something difficult for Mason to do. He could rely on himself, or even Rudolf, who had experience. That person would be found easily.However, after hearing Mason's seemingly casual statement, both officers became even more distrustful of him. They thought that Mason was underestimating such a serious matter and believed he was just playing around.The officer stared at Mason coldly. He slightly grinned. "Do you think this case will be easy to uncover?"They knew that pe

At this moment, Henry had finally managed to uncover the pedophilia case that had recently caused unrest among several parties.After receiving the documents from Mason, Henry felt that his work had become significantly smoother and easier to handle.Once he successfully apprehended the perpetrator, he earned recognition from his commander and praise from several colleagues. Naturally, this made Henry feel a great sense of satisfaction."After two long months, this case is finally over," he murmured softly.His thoughts drifted back to Mason. Of course, he couldn’t deny that all of this had only been possible because of the data Mason had provided.There was no doubt that the information had been highly accurate, making his job much easier. Once again, Mason’s words echoed in his mind.Henry fell silent for a moment, feeling a tinge of regret as he recalled how he had initially doubted Mason. In hindsight, he realized that if he had refused Mason’s documents back then, the case might
