"Natasha?" When Hector looked carefully, he was instantly agitated. "Kate Harmon! Don't do anything stupid! She's your cousin!""What cousin? She's just a bitch!" Kate yelled. She added, "She has always liked to compete against me since we were kids. It remains the same even to this day. "Whenever there was something good at home, you always gave it all to her. I could only use whatever that was left. What right did you have to do that? How am I inferior to her?""Kate, I have never been biased toward any of you. Natasha worked hard for her success today. Both of you started with the same resources." Hector said sincerely. In fact, he gave more resources to Kate than he did to his daughter."Nonsense! Do you think I'll believe your bullshit? If you weren't secretly helping her and providing her with all kinds of assistance, how could Natasha be better than I am?" Kate snorted. From her point of view, Hector had used his status as the family's patriarch to pave the way for Na
Suddenly, Kate raised her hand and struck Hector's neck with the knife's sheath. He immediately passed out after that."Now that Dustin has the treasure map, it's time to settle our scores," Vlad said with a sinister grin. He added, "I'll send someone after him."Kate narrowed her eyes. "No need to go through the trouble. Instead of chasing him down, let's make him come to us willingly.""Oh? Do you have a plan?" he asked curiously."Just watch." She approached Natasha and tore her nightgown with little explanation.Vlad's desire intensified as he saw Natasha's exposed skin and alluring lingerie. He found her irresistible."Hang her up. I want to record a video," Kate said and took her phone out. "Oh, and stand beside her for a photo. It'll spice things up.""Sure thing!" He grinned and instructed someone to hang Natasha on a pillar. Then, he grabbed a strand of her hair and sniffed it with uncontrollable desire."Perfect." Kate was satisfied with the video she recorded. Th
The next morning, Zephyr Lodge was bustling with activity. It was Dustin's birthday!Everyone in the Kirin gang was taking it seriously. They had sent out invitations a few days ago for a big party.The Kirin gang had been in charge of the Millsburg underworld for a long time, with Dustin being known as the King of the Underworld. Today, he was receiving birthday wishes from various factions. Even those who weren't on the guest list hurried to send gifts.Meanwhile, Dustin was meditating in the main room of the villa. However, an urgent knock interrupted his mediation. "What's going on?" He opened the door and found Cornelius standing there."Sir Rhys, we've got a problem!" Cornelius said seriously.He went on, "Early this morning, a group of unknown martial artists broke into Ms. Harmon's villa. We had our men for her protection, but they killed all our men. And now, Ms. Harmon is missing. She might have been kidnapped!""What?" Dustin's expression changed. "How did this h
In Balerno, Tyler was unmatched among the younger generation. Everyone believed that with him leading the way, the Grant family would become even more influential and ultimately rule over Balerno.When Tyler's engagement was announced, it drew attention from all the folks in Millsburg. Not only that, but important people like leaders, merchants, and the rich from all major cities in Balerno also came to show their respect.As dawn approached, the Grant mansion was bustling with guests.In the meeting room, Tyler sat at the center, calm amidst the grandeur. To his sides were key members of the Grant family — uncles, aunts, cousins — all lowering their status, hardly daring to make a sound.When Tyler became General Lionheart and took over as the family patriarch from Arthur Grant, his grandfather, some elder members of the family weren't happy. They argued Tyler lacked experience and qualifications. But within three days, those who opposed him met unfortunate ends, and none of the
"Tyler! Get your ass out here, now!"A sudden shout echoed through the entire Grant mansion. It was as loud as the thunder that boomed in the sky. The voice carried an intent to harm and endless fury."Who's causing all this commotion?""Someone's causing trouble in the mansion? Catch them!""This is unbelievable!"Following a short moment of quiet, the meeting room burst into an uproar. The Grant family members were furious and upset. Nobody had ever dared to be so bold toward them, especially openly disrespecting Tyler like this. It was unacceptable!"Dustin has completely lost control!" Kate's face turned serious. She knew Dustin was coming. Still, she didn't expect him to be so bold, shouting before he even entered."Kate, is this the problem you mentioned?" Tyler frowned for a moment but quickly composed himself, not showing anger."Ty, honestly, Dustin has the treasure map. Everything will be fine if we capture him!" she said with a forced smile."You're quite daring
With a serious look on his face, Vlad commanded his martial artist masters to advance."Clear the way! I'll handle this!" Suddenly, a large, muscular man sprang into action. He charged at Dustin with unstoppable determination. In the middle of his charge, he unleashed a powerful punch known as the "Mad Bull Fist"."Fergus Zane doesn't mess around; he pulled off his best move right from the start.""I couldn't even block that punch; how can that skinny guy stand a chance?""If this kid goes down to Fergus' special move, he's in for some tough luck."The martial artists chuckled, clearly entertained by the unfolding scene.Among them, Fergus wasn't the strongest, but he had a respectable reputation. Going up against him meant trouble for most ordinary martial artists."Get lost!" Dustin paid no attention to the muscular man's attack. He delivered a mighty punch of his own and striked first.The muscular man's body burst like a watermelon hit by a cannonball, disintegrating in
Dustin's gaze sent a chilling fear through Vlad's core. Vlad had thought his plans were foolproof, but Dustin's strength shattered those hopes."Let them go, or face the consequences," Dustin warned, projecting a menacing presence."No way!" Vlad, furious, pulled out a gun and aimed at Dustin. But before he could react, Dustin disappeared and reappeared before him."You—" Vlad was startled, and Dustin grabbed his wrist, snapping it violently."Ah!"The gun dropped from Vlad's hand, and a strong hand gripped his throat, silencing him. His face turned red as he struggled in vain, his feet off the ground."Where's Natasha?" Dustin's expression turned fierce, his presence overwhelming."Let … let me go … or you won't leave here alive!" Vlad desperately threatened."I'm asking you, where is Natasha?" Dustin increased the pressure on Vlad's throat, making it hard for him to breathe. Vlad's face turned purple, and he began to kick wildly."Stop!"At that moment, key members of the
The crowd had never seen such a bold move. In broad daylight, Dustin daringly stormed into the Grant mansion and captured Vlad. It was a risky move, like walking a tightrope without a safety net.Vlad sneered, "Hey, brat! Can you see that? You're surrounded. My family's soldiers are standing all around. What makes you think you can take me on?"He continued to taunt, "If you want to live, let go and surrender. Kneel and beg for mercy. Maybe then, I'll spare you.""You want trouble?" Dustin grabbed Vlad by the neck and slowly lifted him with a chilling glare."What, you dare touch me?" Vlad sneered.He remained fearless and taunted, "If you touch me, you'll die, and your family and friends will suffer the same fate."He continued, "Oh, and your woman, she's in my basement. If anything happens to me, my men will rape her. Come on! Test me. Let's see if you can handle the consequences."Vlad laughed arrogantly. He seemed confident that personal courage could do nothing against ov
