“Come on, I know Aurum County better than you. Why are you acting like a coward and being scared of everything? You two keep eating, and I’ll go take a look. If something’s off, I’ll come back right away.” Serena gestured at Isaac, asking him to relax. Then, she got up and left.“Why did Auntie Serena leave?” Isabella asked innocently with a spoon in her mouth.Isaac pursed his lips. “Your aunt wants to become a celebrity and is too impatient.”Meanwhile, Serena exited the hotel and immediately hailed a cab. She rattled off the address she was given and rushed over as if she was on fire.Serena got off at an office building in the middle of Aurum Boulevard. Then, she took the elevator to the 16th floor.When the elevator doors opened, she saw the senior talent scout she had met earlier today, Jaden Wells.“Serena, you’re here? Please, come in.” Jaden gave her a handsome smile, looking like a total gentleman.He brought Serena into the office. Inside, the lights were bright, and
Serena’s vision began to blur. When she saw Jaden walk toward her, she realized something was wrong.“Mr. Wells, what are you doing? W—What do you mean by ‘work for it’?”“Serena, I don’t want your money, so what do you think you can give me? If you pleasure me tonight, I’ll definitely make you into a household name. Come, let me kiss you!” Jaden said, leaning close to her.Serena struggled to stand, reaching out to push Jaden away, but her hands were powerless.“What are you doing? Don’t come near me,” Serena said fearfully, on the verge of tears, as she tried to stand and get away.Back then, she had the opportunity to get into an acting agency that matched her major, but the boss had also made this sort of request. It was why Serena had chosen to teach at a school instead.She had never thought she’d face the same thing again today at the hands of a man who was exceptionally sly.She couldn’t dodge Jaden’s hands and ended up getting caught by him.Jaden wrapped his hand arou
“Put this on. We can’t stay here long.” Isaac was expressionless.Seeing Isaac’s tanned skin and lean muscles, Serena blushed as her heart began to beat crazily. She suddenly pounced on Isaac.Isaac was stunned. He pushed Serena off and saw that her eyes were dazed and her face was flushed. He said in a low voice, “He gave you a date rape drug. Calm down.”He turned his head to find Isabella looking at him curiously with a wide gaze. Fuck, had she seen what happened just now?Serena seemed to have lost her rational thinking and once again pounced on him.Isaac raised his hand and gave her a karate chop on the neck, knocking her unconscious. Then, he carried her with one arm, held Isabella’s hand with the other, and walked out.Meanwhile, Jaden, who got slapped earlier, ran to the office downstairs. He nervously dialed a phone number.The line connected, and the person at the end of the line immediately began to chew his head off.“Jaden, you bastard, are you crazy? Why are you
“What are you doing?” Neptune’s eyes widened when he saw Jaden dangling from Isaac’s raised arm.Isaac turned around and walked briskly toward the floor-to-ceiling windows.Everyone’s eyes popped open.“N—Neptune, save me, save…”On the bed, Serena shivered violently as she watched Isaac use Jaden’s body to break a huge hole in the floor-to-ceiling windows.The breeze of the 23rd floor filled the room like water, blowing everyone’s hair into disarray.“I beg you. Please let me go. Sir, I was wrong. Please, I’m begging you!” Jaden could feel that his body was already hanging in mid-air. The fear of imminent death made his whole body shake violently.Isaac glared at him icily. “Pray that you won’t meet me again in your next life.”He released his hand, and Jaden’s body fell speedily. His loud yell slowly faded away.Neptune was dumbfounded, and so were his men behind him.D—Did this bastard just kill Jaden right in front of him?“Punk, I…”“Get the fuck out!” Isaac turned aro
Isaac could more or less guess why Diana was here.“Are you sure you want to arrest me?” Isaac asked.“Hmph, you’d better not be the one responsible for last night’s incident. Otherwise, you’re dead meat!” The arrogant look on Diana's face turned serious.She’d found out about this incident this morning. The subordinate of the Golden Boy of Aurum County, Jaden Wells, had fallen to his death from a tall building, and the CCTV footage showed that Isaac had been on the floor where the incident occurred.Just now, the provincial capital had sent out a confidential notice. The provincial capital was under a lot of pressure.Isaac got into the car, and Diana sat next to him.She had a great figure. The car bounced and shook, and for a hot minute, their bodies were about to touch.“Come here. I’ll tell you a secret.” Isaac turned to look at Diana. Her side profile was quite pretty.Because she had fallen for Isaac’s tricks twice already, she was on alert but still leaned over slowly.
The door locked with a click.Aidan turned around and grabbed a rubber baton from the corner of the room. It would hurt badly to get beaten with this, but it wouldn’t cause internal injuries.He slammed the baton in front of Isaac and shouted angrily, “Tell me, what were you doing at the Aurum County Ritz-Melody Hotel yesterday? What were you doing at 10.30 pm last night?”“Committing murder!” Isaac looked at Aidan with a slight smile.Aidan thought he had misheard. He furrowed his brows and screamed, “What did you just say? Say that again.”“I killed Jaden Wells,” Isaac reiterated.This time, it was Aidan who was stupefied. After so many years of being a law enforcement officer, it was his first time encountering such a person.Meanwhile, on the other side of the interrogation room, Diana, who was listening through an earpiece, was shocked.Although the CCTV in the interrogation room was turned off, the audio listening system was still running. She would never have thought tha
Aidan’s finger was already on the trigger, but when he heard the shout from outside, he paused.The chief secretary of the provincial capital, Louis Marsh? This name was a little familiar.He gritted his teeth and put his gun away. Then, he snarled at Isaac, “You dipshit, just wait. I’ll make sure you rot in prison.”The door opened with a click. Louis pushed up his glasses on his nose, and the first thing he saw was a bloody Aidan, whose forehead was sporting a huge bump.“Mr. Marsh…”As soon as Aidan began to speak, Louis pushed him away. “Move over.”“You must be Mr. Garten. Are you alright?” Louis asked, approaching Isaac carefully.Isaac turned to look at this man, who seemed to be around the same age as him, and said, “Luckily, I was built strong, or else I would’ve been beaten to death. You were just in time; the bullet hadn’t gone through my brain yet.”Louis’ hairs on his back all stood up instantly when he heard that.Before he came, his superior had specifically rem
The color drained from Aidan’s face. He stumbled backward two steps and almost fell.“Why? Are you doing this… because of him?” He suddenly remembered the person in the next interrogation room.As if regaining his senses, he ran out the door like a madman.Isaac was sitting on the metal chair, smoking. Aidan burst into the room, falling to his knees harshly. He bowed to him and sobbed loudly, “Mr. Garten, I was wrong. I’m sorry. I’m begging you to give me a chance.”When Diana and the other police officers standing outside saw this, their eyes almost fell out of their sockets. They couldn’t believe their eyes. “I have elderly parents and young children. I can’t get exiled to the extreme north.”Isaac leaned forward, grabbing Aidan’s chin. He stared him in the eye and said softly, “Am I not giving you a chance? Don’t be greedy; you should already be thanking God that you’re still allowed to breathe.”In the end, Isaac, flanked by Louis, went downstairs. Aidan was left behind in
