"We are not friends. I don't owe you anything, and I won't be paying for your meal. So either step aside and get out of my way, or I will make you move by force.”Layla moved out of the way and Mira left with Ansel.There was nothing they could do now, Layla breathed down deeply and saw Gina shaking nervously.Layla walked back to meet the waiter, she thought of words to say but she didn't know how to start the conversation.There was no money in her bank account since her family's company was at the verge of going bankrupt.She was only wearing the fancy clothes because she didn't want her friends to think of her as poor.The only person who could save them out of this situation was Gina.Layla's words were like honey, her voice dripping with saccharine sweetness as she turned to Gina. "Hey, I'm so sorry, but I seem to have left my credit card at home. I know this is a bit of a hassle, but do you think you could cover the bill for us both? I'll pay you back as soon as I can, I promis
Two days passed within a blink of an eye and Ansel spent them creating pills.He made sure that he created enough, especially since the amount of sick people who came into the medical room was high.Smith even told Ansel that more people were waiting outside for treatments.He was starting to get tired but he allowed them in and began treating them.The ones whose conditions were severe were cured by using his acupuncture technique.Ansel treated them all while Smith did small tasks like bringing the drugs and helping Ansel whenever he needed his help.Now he was down to his final patient and Ansel pulled out the needles.He cleaned them and disinfected them before placing them in his bag."Try to rest a little. I have given you a drug that would help with the migraine and body pains."Ansel said with a yawn.The old worker thanked Ansel and then walked out of the medical room.At this point, it was already four pm in the evening and he knew it was time to leave.After saying goodbye t
Ansel didn't expect that Vinny would take it so seriously, he was surprised when he saw the expectant look on his face."And what do I get if I win?" Ansel asked, his eyes waiting for answers.Vinny liked Ansel's confidence, he didn't know if Ansel would stand a chance to win but he decided to give Ansel a reason to accept."I will introduce you to people you never knew existed."Ansel thought about it for a while, that wasn't a bad idea and he could actually get to meet more people who could prove useful to him."I'm in" Ansel agreed and the table was cleared.The two sat down across each other, with their hands resting on the table.When Mr Crowley saw how Vinny looked at him expectantly, he had no choice but to be the referee."3,2,1, start" Mr Crowley shouted and both Ansel and Vinny concentrated.Ansel didn't add much force yet, since Vinny was a man in his sixties, he knew that he would get tired soon.However, Vinny was not planning to lose, he made sure to use his strength and
"That was a fair game, Ansel. I will give you what I promised." Vinny said with a smile, even though he had just lost.Now, he was even more interested in Ansel.How can a young boy like Ansel be this strong?"Thank you, Vinny. You were also not a bad player." Ansel gave a cold laugh, his gaze fell on the ground and he saw the pieces of wood on the floor.With a proud smirk on his face, Ansel checked his wristwatch and saw that it was getting late.He stood up to leave but surprisingly, Vinny was following him behind."I'm going to keep to my promise. Follow me Ansel." Vinny said as they walked, soon he led the way and walked toward a different section of the bar.There was a huge door in front of them and Vinny swiped his card so effortlessly, as if he had been doing it for long.The door creaked as it opened and Ansel couldn't help but gasp quietly.It was a different place and he had never seen a place like this.Inside the place looked a lot like a different VVIP room.The men sit
Ansel narrowly avoided Vinny's strike, but as he looked down at his chest, he noticed a small scratch that had been left behind by the attack. That only meant that if Ansel did not move out of the way then he would have definitely passed out with just that one move.One thing was now sure, Vinny was strong.However, Ansel wasn't the type to give up, his gaze bore into Vinny's.They both stared at each other for a while.Ansel launched himself towards Vinny, his body becoming a blur as he closed the distance between them in the blink of an eye. Mid-air, he twisted his body and spun, his feet pivoting as he faced Vinny from the opposite direction. Like a bolt of lightning, he struck, delivering his signature move, "The Two-Way Flash," with devastating force. When he regained his step, his smile disappeared the moment he found that not only had Vinny avoided his attack but he had also left his original position.Ansel turned around quickly, he searched the room and found Vinny standin
Inside his room, Ansel opened the group chat.There were just eight members in the group, including Vinny.One level A ranker, three level B rankers and three level C rankers.When Ansel saw how quiet the group was, he decided to type a message.[Hello members]Ansel hit the send button and soon someone began to type, he saw that it was Vinny and quickly saved his number.He also made sure to save everyone's number.Vinny went on to introduce Ansel to the group members and they all welcomed Ansel warmly.Everyone was active in the group except the only level A ranker.When Ansel saw the names of the companies that they all owned, he thought it would be a great idea to invest in some of their companies and become a shareholder.And so when he finished chatting in the group, he forwarded the list of companies to Samantha and instructed her to invest in the companies.He saw Samantha typing almost immediately and so he waited to read what she had to say before leaving for the restroom.[
"That's good news," Ansel said with a gentle smile.Even though Thora announced that she was planning to work with KG group, she didn't think that she would actually succeed.She tried her best to not show her nervousness in the presence of everyone.Chris, grand aunt, Mira and the rest of the family members' mouths were wide open in shock.KG group was an international company and they had three thousand companies all over the world.They had just recently settled in the city and with their reputation, it would be difficult to get as much as a contract with them.It was rumored that they only accept foreign workers in the company and highly skilled people.Her chances of signing a contract with them was close to zero.However, KG group made an announcement some few days ago and showed their interest in signing a contract with one of the companies in the city.Thora thought that this was their only chance but after hearing the rumors of their rejection, she was starting to feel like t
Chris's tone was one of feigned concern as he finally tore his gaze from his plate, directing it toward Thora with a furrowed brow. "Thora, you're not attending the KG company any longer? Have you changed your mind about signing with them? You seemed quite enthusiastic about it before." Thora nodded her head and they all went quiet, didn't she mention earlier that she was excited to try her luck?Was she really going to give up?Ansel was the most shocked, he didn't want his wife to give up just yet."C'mon, Thora, I believe in you. My wife is a survivor and she always goes for what she wants. You are a winner, Thora. Don't give up" Ansel said in a soothing voice, he met Thora's gaze and then she looked away."I'm afraid that the Castillo group doesn't have what it takes. If I go on with this then I will only bring shame to the family. Chris was right" Thora said, her voice threatening to shake.She took in a deep breath and then breathed out slowly."So you just want to give up? Oh
