With the collapse of the illegal business circle in Reddof, the biggest obstacle to business progress in the area vanished. In just a few weeks, invitations for investors began pouring in. Billy and his associates had always made investing in Reddof difficult. They disrupted businesses, created problems, and forced people to either sell or give up. As a result, no one dared invest in the area. But now, things were starting to change. With no more interference, the opportunity to start businesses and grow in Reddof was greater than ever. Paulo had already spread the word that he welcomed anyone to start a business in Reddof and guaranteed that no one would cause them any trouble. Paulo's name carried a lot of weight now. The legal side had the government's backing, while the illegal business circle had someone keeping an eye on them—Dixon. This ensured that all investments and development would run smoothly. Reddof became a top investment choice overnight. Plus, the city already ha
Lewo instantly understood what was going on and just gave a sly smirk. A moment later, the contract was laid out in front of Sonny. After carefully reviewing it, Sonny realized in his heart that this contract was practically robbing his family's assets. But he had no other choice. Sonny signed it and sealed it with both the company stamp and his personal seal. "From now on, Hamilton Group is mine," Lewo said, satisfied. "Everything that used to belong to Hamilton Group is now mine." Lewo burst into laughter. "HAHAHA! Go back and tell your dad. Take the money and enjoy his retirement. It’s more than enough for you both to live comfortably without worrying about money." Hamilton Group was worth hundreds of millions, but Steven had sold it for only $80 million—a huge and painful loss. But at this point, Steven had no other options. If he stayed in Reddof, there would be nowhere else for him to go, and he risked being crushed by Dixon. It was better to take the money and flee, loo
"There's work to do," Dixon said to Paulo. *** At the factory, in the supervisor's office, Roger was tied to a chair. His hands and feet were bound tightly, and his mouth was gagged with a cloth. Yet, he made loud noises, struggling to break free. "Shut up! If you keep making noise, I'll cut out your tongue!" snapped Sadam, the leader of the group. His sharp gaze was fixed on Roger. "I'm waiting for the CEO of Hamilton Group to come talk to me. Lewo wants this place. Even if he can’t get all of it, he's still after it." Not long after, Diana arrived at the factory and went straight to the supervisor’s office. Outside, Roger’s secretary looked anxious. "CEO Diana, they're inside!" the secretary said, his voice trembling, on the verge of tears. "Should we call the police?" "No," Diana shook her head. "I'll go in and assess the situation first." When Diana saw the injured security guards, their faces bruised from being beaten, she felt powerless. "CEO Diana, these men are
Dixon pulled Diana into the car. “Why are you so stubborn?” Why did she insist on solving everything on her own? Diana didn’t respond. “If anything happens to you, I’ll lose my mind.” He didn’t tell Diana that if something happened to her, the entire Reddof area would plunge into chaos from his fury. *** At the supervisor’s office, screams of agony echoed. The door was sealed tightly, and Sadam realized in despair how soundproof the room was. Paulo sat calmly, his cold gaze fixed on the men before him. “You’ve got some nerve causing trouble here! Did you think the Hamilton Group would just back down?” Despite his bleeding wounds, Sadam remained defiant. “Once Boss Lewo arrives, you’re all dead!” Paulo chuckled softly and gave a slight nod to Gobu. Gobu stepped forward, grabbed Sadam by the hair, and slapped him repeatedly until a few of his teeth fell out. “Lewo is trash!” Gobu snarled. “If he bothers Diana again, I’ll crush him!” Sadam and his men were filled
Lewo lowered the wine glass in his hand. “How many people did he bring?” “Just a dozen,” his subordinate answered hesitantly. Lewo paused for a moment, wondering if he had misheard. He had gathered three hundred men. “Just a dozen?” Lewo smirked coldly. “He really dares to show up with so few men? Does he think I won’t touch him?” He gave a sharp instruction, “Have them wait in the small room. I’ll deal with them when I’m finished here.” He wasn’t actually busy—this was just a tactic to show Paulo that his status was far below his. For Lewo, this meeting was a chance to make Paulo submit. As Lewo poured himself another glass of wine, thinking of what demands to make, someone kicked the door open. “What the hell?!” Lewo roared. Paulo strolled in with a calm smile. “Your men said you were busy, so I thought I’d check for myself. Turns out you were just busy drinking wine?” he mocked. Lewo’s anger flared. “Do you tired of living, Paulo?” Paulo remained composed. “We’r
Dixon stood in front of Lewo, his demeanor cold and steady. "You should make the call," he said directly, skipping any formalities. Lewo frowned. "Call who?" "Use the phone with only one number saved in it," Dixon replied calmly. Lewo immediately felt uneasy. That number belonged to a woman he had hidden away, and no one knew about her. "Who the hell are you?" Lewo asked, his voice tight with panic. Dixon remained unfazed. "Make the call now. I hope you're not too late." Lewo’s heart pounded wildly, feeling like it would burst from his chest. Reluctantly, filled with suspicion, he grabbed the phone and dialed. After two rings, a soft female voice answered on the other end. “Why are you calling again? I was taking a nap with our son.” Lewo let out a relieved sigh, but before he could say anything, Dixon interjected, “Tell her to look out the bedroom window.” Though filled with resentment, Lewo complied. “Babe, could you check the window real quick?” "Why?" she asked, confus
Who did it?” “I don’t know, but they say it’s connected to Reddof. Lewo had his eyes on assets there, and now he’s dead.” The room fell silent. After a long pause, Nico spoke. “It must’ve been Paulo and his gang. Boss, we shouldn’t act yet. Let’s dig for more information.” “Lewo’s men in the north have disappeared too. For now, we can’t touch Reddof.” Everyone exchanged serious glances. “What about Master Nom’s reaction?” someone asked. A powerful figure had suddenly emerged in Reddof, clearing out illegal business circles and wiping out Lewo overnight. This wasn’t a minor issue. If this was a battle between major forces, continuing the fight wouldn’t be an option. “Master Nom hasn’t interfered for ten years, but everyone in Umamo still listens to him,” Topan said. “He stays quiet to avoid trouble, but he’ll still take his cut.” For years, Master Nom didn’t care about anything happening within the illegal circles. Even if the bosses clashed, they’d still look to him to mediat
The salesperson was stunned. "A new car...?" he murmured in disbelief. He was dumbfounded. Do rich people buy cars like they buy vegetables? "Don’t you have something better?" Dixon asked, seeing the salesperson still confused. "Oh, of course! Would you like another from the 5 Series?" he asked enthusiastically. "No, that's too low. Do you have anything more premium?" Dixon asked, shaking his head. "If it's too cheap, don't bother showing it to me." The salesperson swallowed nervously, feeling tense. Diana was surprised, and so was Gobu. "The latest 7 Series, the M760Li. It's a high-performance luxury car!" the salesperson exclaimed, his voice trembling. "How much is it?" Diana and Gobu asked in unison. "Around 100 million dollars," the salesperson replied. Upon hearing the price, Diana fell silent in disbelief, while Gobu held his breath. Everyone in the showroom was now looking at Dixon with admiration and envy. "Is there something more expensive?" Dixon aske
