“Tell her that I can give Garth Properties the opportunity of a lifetime,” Tristan said, closing his eyes with a grin.According to the intel he received, Isaac had been trying to get close to Allegra ever since he showed up in Cloud City.Tristan didn’t know the entire truth, but he was sure of one thing—considering Isaac’s ability to purchase the best villa with 70 million dollars in hard cash, it definitely wasn’t because he had fallen for this previously disfigured widow.Hence, this Allegra must be of utmost importance to Isaac. Just knowing this fact was good enough!Just as Tristan made Allegra his target, somewhere else on Mt. Equest, in the main building of the Azure Sect, the scent of candles filled up the tea room. Sitting at the head of the table was Reece, who wore a serious look on his face. To his left was the headmaster of Azure Sect, Luke, while the headmaster of Ingot Sect, Bruno Nau, sat to his left. On the other hand, the headmaster of the Holy Division, Alexi
Allegra didn’t know Tristan, but she’d definitely heard of Reddar Corporation.Now that Pegasus No. 1 had fallen into Reddar Corporation’s hands, they definitely couldn’t get it back anymore. But now, there was a turn in the road—she never would have thought that they would have the chance to collaborate.“Ms. Sawyer, call Ms. Danson. I’ll head over with her.”By then, Emily had already been successfully recruited as the deputy head of logistics and marketing at Garth Properties.Emily, dressed in business formal, entered the office and asked with a smile, “Ms. Booth, is there good news?”After listening to Allegra’s explanation, Emily furrowed her brows and said, “Um, have a meal with Tristan? Does Mr. Garten know about this?”“Why does he need to know? All he does is fight.” Allegra waved her hand impatiently. Then, she added, “Go get ready. Let’s meet up after an hour.”At that moment, Allegra’s phone went off. When she saw it was Isaac’s number, she put it to her ear and sai
It was widely known that the development of Pegasus No. 1 could easily reach a hundred billion dollars. Just 20 percent would be over 20 billion dollars. In Cloud City, it was definitely the biggest project to date.Allegra’s heart began to race, and her face turned a deeper shade of red. “Mr. Martin, by giving us 20 percent of the project, do you have any other requests?” she asked, slightly nervous.Finally, they’d arrived at the main point. Tristan raised his hand, and the waiter immediately brought over a box of cigars. He took one out, lit it, and took a puff. With a slight smile, he said, “I don’t have requests. If I had to name one, it would be to become good friends with you, Ms. Booth. What do you think?”Emily frowned minutely. Twenty billion dollars in exchange for friendship? Surely the Martins were not this foolish?Meanwhile, Allegra merely lowered her head in embarrassment. She covered her mouth and laughed, saying, “Mr. Martin, you’re young, successful, and funny as
“Isaac, are you out of your fucking mind? He came to talk about a collaboration.” Allegra couldn’t hold back her anger anymore. She ran up to Isaac and shoved him harshly.Then, she quickly went over to Tristan. When she saw the bright red handprint on his face and his ferocious expression, she immediately bowed in apology and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Martin. I’m sorry. Isaac really likes to hit…”At that moment, Isaac suddenly reached out and pulled Allegra into his arms. Staring at Tristan, he enunciated each word clearly, “If you dare hit on her, the consequences will be severe. I don’t care how powerful your family is.”Allegra tried to struggle free, but Isaac held onto her tightly. She couldn’t break free and began to hit him out of anxiety and fear.From behind, Emily watched everything unfold with a complicated look.“In that case, Ms. Booth, we’ll meet again soon.” Tristan didn’t have Kingston with him today, and he didn’t know the relationship between Cameron and Isaac. Aft
“No, over my dead body. This back alley barber has no right to…”Before Cameron could finish screaming, a sharp dagger was pressed to his throat. The pain from the sharp blade made him pause.“Keep squawking, and I’ll cut a hole in your throat,” Isaac said icily.The barber was shocked.“Sir, don’t be afraid. Just shave it all off.” Isaac forced Cameron, who didn’t dare move a muscle, into a seat.The old man’s skills were rather impressive. Although it only cost five dollars, in less than half an hour, there wasn’t a hair left on Cameron’s head. His crown shone under the sunlight.“Alright, all done. This little noggin is so shiny and smooth,” the barber said, chuckling and sighing with satisfaction.Cameron’s head felt airy. Seeing Isaac put away the dagger, he picked up a hand mirror and looked at himself. Then, he burst into loud tears. Furious, he pointed at Isaac and growled, “Garten, you bastard, I spent over three thousand dollars on my hairstyle, and you destroyed it wi
Long after Patrick left, Edward was still doing fist pumps in bed.The martial arts powerhouses of Mt. Equest actually wanted to work with the Gould family. He was going to make the Gould family the next Kenne family and the most powerful family in Southland!He immediately picked up his phone from his pillow and dialed Andrew’s number. Then, he said fervently, “Andy, listen closely. Sort out my discharge documents tomorrow and then prepare to host a banquet at home. Some important guests are coming.”After hanging up, Edward was so excited that he couldn’t sleep. At almost 11 pm that night, footsteps thudded outside his door.The door opened with a creak. A man wearing dark blue athletic wear and a baseball cap walked in. His face couldn’t be seen. Trailing after him was a sexy woman wearing a black leather top.“W—Who are you?” Edward looked at the two people with a nervous expression.The man in the cap lowered his head and said slowly, “You don’t need to know who I am. Now, I
Half an hour later, a black Land Rover stopped in the middle of a street full of bars. Isaac made a beeline to the door of a bar called The Charmers.It was easy to locate Cameron. After the Kenne family fell, Old Brooks’ men all came out of hiding. The very night Horace was shot and killed, Old Brooks brought a group of elites into the provincial capital and Aurum County.They took over the Kenne family’s territories in Aurum County seamlessly. Meanwhile, Cloud City had always belonged to them. Finding Mr. Hart Jr. in the nightlife scene merely took one phone call.In the most luxurious private room located on the second floor, a bunch of young men and women were swaying their bodies madly under the influence of alcohol and heavy metal music.Suddenly, the music went dead in the room, and the lights flicked on. The entire room went quiet.The young men and women turned to look at the door. Isaac had one of his hands on the switches, picking Cameron out from the crowd.“Hey, are
As soon as Isaac hung up the phone, the redhead began to ridicule him loudly, “Why do you even need an armored motorcade? Punk, do you think you’re some kind of fucking army general; asking for an armored motorcade over the phone?”“My father is an officer in the military district. You sure like to play pretend, moron, except you’re trying to fool the expert here,” a buff man said, laughing as he stepped forward. Then, he turned to Cameron and said, “Mr. Hart Jr., don’t worry. With one phone call from me, no one from the military would dare come.”Cameron nodded with a grin. Seeing Isaac’s serious expression, he couldn’t help but find the whole situation amusing.“Isaac, don’t you know that pretenders always get caught? That guy’s father manages the entire military district. Aren’t you just humiliating yourself?”The large group of young men and women burst into laughter. Right now, Isaac was nothing more than a clown in their eyes.“You have a little over ten minutes to call your
