The audience gazed at the massive display, visibly stunned. They were promised a glimpse of Ray, naked, and his attractive wife in a bikini, yet they were nowhere to be seen. Everyone was bewildered; what was happening? To their surprise, the person appearing on the screen was actually James , and the high-resolution LED screen showcased every detail of his nakedness.Suddenly, the screen flickered and changed to another scene - it displayed the chaos in the lobby of the Sunrise Heritage Resort. James realized that if he stepped out, he would only draw more attention to himself since the road outside the hotel was swarming with people. He promptly turned towards the hotel's front desk, seeking help.As the distinguished guests beneath the stage watched the video, they tried to stifle their laughter, but their trembling lips and eyes betrayed their amusement. Sarah, taken aback by the unexpected turn of events, closed her eyes in embarrassment. She tightly held Ray's hand and inquired,
"Are you not going to release my arm?" James's voice grew louder with agitation. He balled his hand into a fist and mustered all his might to strike the waitress. In a split second, a loud thud echoed as his punch landed on her nose, causing blood to spurt out. The waitress, a delicate young woman, turned pale with fear and stumbled before collapsing on the ground. James's face was smeared with her blood, but instead of cleaning himself, he knelt down and removed her coat. The guests below the stage scowled upon witnessing the scene on video. One of them even shouted at James, "What a scumbag! How could you hit such a pretty girl?" This triggered a wave of complaints from the other guests. Some tried to be polite while reproaching James, saying, "You were totally out of line, James. You could have just asked her for the coat. Why did you have to resort to violence?"As the events unfolded, some were unable to contain their anger and shouted out curses, threatening to harm the perpetra
Ray was accustomed to enduring Joanna's abusive behavior and had become indifferent to it, while Sarah felt uneasy. She glanced at him before taking out her keys to open the door. She planned to defend Ray's character to her mother and explain that he wasn't worthless. Not only did he help her avoid participating in the nude run, but he also got her invited to Mr. Garcia's welcome party. Ray was truthful, but no one seemed to believe him.Upon opening the door, Sarah was shocked by what she saw, and Ray was equally taken aback. "Mom, Dad! What's happening?" Sarah exclaimed after entering the living room. She looked at Ray for a moment before he silently closed the door, wondering what Joanna was so angry about.In the doorway, Jack knelt on a rough plank, with his glasses sent flying by Joanna, and his hair in disarray. Sophiawas not in a better situation as she knelt on the ground, with her slender legs stained with dirt. Although she did not appear to be in severe pain like her fath
The following day, Ray awoke to find himself lying on the ground. Blinking, he realized that Sarah had already left the room. After grabbing his phone, he logged into his account and was thrilled to see his bank balance. Overcome with excitement, he even kissed his phone. It was unbelievable - he was now a billionaire. In just two hours, he had earned 160 million. No doubt he was the best trader around, outdoing even the most skilled money-makers.Feeling pretty pleased with himself, Ray was suddenly interrupted by a loud knock on the door. A voice on the other side demanded that he get up and fetch breakfast. Irritated, Ray opened the door and faced Adeline, who shouted, "You're worthless! Go get us some breakfast!"Ray frowned and replied, "Adeline, I'm your brother-in-law. Show some respect, will you?"Sophiawas wearing a hip-high T-shirt that exposed her slender and fair legs. Ray usually found himself curious when she dressed like that, wondering if she was wearing underwear."Do
Upon catching Sarah's stare, Ryan sensed something was amiss. His fears were confirmed when she muttered, "I've never seen such a shameless man before." Ryan's hands trembled violently, causing most of the coffee that Monica had just given him to spill."You asshole!" exclaimed Sarah. This outburst prompted Monica to scowl at Sarah and reprimand her, "How dare you speak to your brother-in-law like that? Apologize to him right now!"Sarah refused to back down, raising her head in defiance. She locked eyes with Monica and argued, "Grandma, I'm not just shooting my mouth off. Ryan and Alicedidn't attend the welcome banquet that Oscorp Corporation hosted. And they've been lying to you about it while taking all the credit for James's downfall. Isn't that shameless? What did I say wrong?"Monica's eyes widened in shock. "What did you just say? Ryan and Alicedidn't go to the welcome banquet?"Without any hesitation, Sarah nodded firmly. "Yes, Grandma. I saw it with my own eyes. Aliceand Ryan
As Tristan and Alicebroached the topic, Monica's expression remained stoic, as though she had anticipated the conversation. "Jack, what's your plan with Joanna? We need to resolve this issue today," she demanded.Monica shifted her gaze towards Jack and Joanna. Jack appeared crestfallen, and after exchanging glances with his wife, he stood up. "Mom, could you grant us a few more days? We're trying to come up with a solution," he pleaded.Monica emitted a deep sigh and retorted, "Sit down. Joanna, you stand up and inform us about your plan. This mess is your doing, yet you've been hiding behind your husband. What have you got to say?"Joanna stood up in silence, her eyes brimming with tears. She whimpered, "I'm sorry, everyone. I was confused and wanted to make some money. I made a grave error and caused a significant loss for our business. I'm deeply sorry."Monica nodded her head and stated, "It takes courage to own up to your actions. What do you plan to do to rectify this?"As tear
Jack was trembling with fear, his mind racing as he lunged towards Tristan, desperate to snatch the phone away from him. "Tristan, wait! The discussion isn't over yet. Please, just put the phone down and think about this for a moment. Put yourself in my shoes."Tristan smirked as he dodged Jack's attack. "I'm not being insensitive, Uncle Jack. Your wife and daughter have gone too far. Joanna stole the money, and Sarah insulted Ryan. They deserve to be punished. They deserve to rot in prison."Despite his anger, Jack forced himself to put on a false smile. "I apologize for their behavior. Sarah and Ray are ignorant, and I'll make sure to discipline them. But please, don't make that phone call."Tristan felt a rush of satisfaction as he watched Jack's family groveling at his feet, begging and crying for mercy. Even Sarah, who had always been at odds with him, was on her knees. But he wasn't satisfied yet. He wanted toWith a menacing stare, Tristan directed his attention to Sarah and de
Despite his efforts to evade them, Joanna and Sophia managed to hold onto Ray tightly. He felt dejected as he watched his in-game character get killed by his opponent wielding a gun. "I know how to help Sarah seal the deal and secure the contract. Let me take the lead. I need to play another round for revenge," he said. Sophia snatched Ray's phone and sneered, "You have a plan? That's bullshit! Lillian told me you used to wear my dad's old clothes. Aren't you ashamed? You're leeching off my sister, and now you're trying to manipulate her?" Ray glared at her and freed himself from her grasp. "Believe it or not, I don't have to explain anything to you. And yes, I chose to wear your father's hand-me-down clothes. Your sister's income is hard-earned, and I wanted to save some money for her. Is there something wrong with that?" Sophia was taken aback. She looked at Ray in disbelief, not knowing what to say. How could a grown man be so shameless? He made it sound as if being "feckless"
Tristan froze, looking desperately at Alice and Ryan for help.The couple was so frustrated that it was as if their family had just died.Unable to turn a blind eye to Tristan, Ryan said, "Tristan is the leader of the Peters Corporation . It would hurt his reputation and the company's image."Sophia sneered, "Urgh! My dad just begged you and wanted to apologize on behalf of Sarah . Even if he made such a compromise, you turned him down and wouldn't back down!""Now we have the Oscorp Corporation 's contract, and we won. It's Tristan's turn to apologize. How dare you say it will hurt his reputation! What about Sarah 's reputation? Is she just so trivial that everyone could trample on her dignity?This is a blatant double standard!Ryan, you son of a bitch!"Sophia knocked Keenan's socks off.She was not only a doer but also very articulate!Ryan shut up like a clam, not knowing how to fight back.Damian, who had always been tolerant, couldn't stand it this time. He said to Monica, "Mo
Sternly, Sarah snapped, "Get the hell out of here! Didn't I tell you to stay home? Why did you have to come? Do you think this is not humiliating enough?"Ray grinned, "I was the one that encouraged you to take the bet. How can I let you deal with this alone? As your husband, I had to come."Sarah Frowned. "Stop saying you are my husband. I haven't admitted it. Get lost! This has nothing to do with you."Still wearing a grin, Ray shook his head. "Kneeling is fun. How can I miss it? I'm not going!"Furious, Sarah wanted to smash her head against a wall. She must have been blind to take this dimwit as a husband. She had asked him to stay home to spare him the humiliation. In the end, he insisted on coming along and suffering the humiliation with her.Before she said anything else, Tristan came over, grabbed Keenan's arm as if he was afraid Ray would run away, and laughed, "Good for you, Keenan! I have to admit you have balls! Since you are already here, you're not going anywhere! Go joi
"Sarah, don't do it!"Sophia held Sarah in tears.Sobbing, Colette kept slapping herself."Sarah, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have invested in bitcoin. I shouldn't have embezzled money fromthe company. I want to kneel in your stead, but they won't let me. Your father already tried."She slapped herself again and again.Every time she finished a sentence, she would slap herself in the face once. She was sincerely remorseful, but besides slapping herself, she could do nothing for her daughter.Sophia walked to her and said in tears,"Mom, stop! Your face is swollen.Sarah wouldn't want you to hurt yourself ...Sarah tried her best to smile at Colette. "Mom, nobody is perfect. It's only human to make mistakes. But you must learn from this. Always do the right thing in the future.'Wiping her tears, Colette promised,"Yes, I will. It won't happen again."Gritting her teeth, Sarah forced herself to walk on towards Ryan, who sat not far from her.It was not until then that Co
In the Peters's, he living room was packed with people. The seats were arranged as usual. On the sofa was the white-haired Monica.The only difference about this meeting was that next to her, besides Alice and Ryan, there were also three young policemen in uniform and a middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses.As soon as Sarah and her family walked in, Tristan rose and began introducing the outsiders to them."Let me introduce you to each other.These are the police officers from the police station whose jurisdiction the Peters Realty is in. This is Director Blount."Seeing that Sarah and her family were all silent, Tristan got even cockier.Pointing at the middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses, he continued,"This is Mr. Dower, a barrister adept at handling financial disputes. He has never lost in a single lawsuit."Tristan squinted at Sarah and her family as if demanding if they were afraid or not.Sarah hated him, but there was nothing she could do. Of course, she knew why he was d
Sarah put down her fork and said,"Rest assured. Nobody is running away.My family and I will be there." "Good. You have 30 minutes. If you're not here by then, all the other Peters and I will go to your home." Tristan let out a sneer.Colette and Jack paced back and forth anxiously. What should they do?Without the contract, not only would Tristan take their shares, but Sarah would have to kneel before Ryan.Sarah was a tough girl with strong self-esteem. How was she supposed to live with such shame? She would try to kill herself again.Sophia had a stupid idea. "Sarah, why don't you run? To any city but here.Don't come back again. It's just a bet.They can't call the police or have you arrested anyway."Sarah shook her head. "No. Since I didn't die yesterday, it means even God thinks I should apologize to Ryan."Ray didn't understand. "Why run? I told you I would handle this. Do my words mean nothing to you? I will get the contract. Don't you believe me atall?"Sarah looked at hi
Ray was confused. He was dreaming of consummating their marriage before waking up.Maybe dreams were affected by subconsciousness. Bizarrely, in the dream, the face of the woman under him was vague. He wasn't sure whether it was Sarah.So, when he heard her voice, he felt guilty. Disturbed in a sound sleep, he was in a daze for a slip second."What? I am dead?" he asked in reply.As it grew brighter outside, Sarah saw she was in a ward and realized she hadbeen saved and was not dead.After waking up, she was mad and hated Ray for being ungrateful.But when she saw how silly he looked, she felt like laughing out loud.To stifle her laughter, she stared at him with wide eyes; her face turned red from exertion.Yet, still, she failed and burst out laughing.Ray scratched his head and regained his senses. "Sarah, you're awake! This is great!"Sarah snorted and turned around."Why did you save me? Why didn't you let me die? Do you want to see me kneeling before that weasel Ryan? Or do you
Humans always like to explore the unknown. Without curiosity, modern science wouldn't have made so much progress; penicillin wouldn't have been discovered, and rockets wouldn't have been built or sent into space.Ray was no exception. He was curious where the faint strange smell came from.But he couldn't see. And his hands couldn't move. What could he do to find out?Almost subconsciously, he stuck out his tongue.He licked hard. What the hell?Ray finally knew why her underwear tasted salty.The girl sitting on his face also realized what was going on. She screamed and jumped up, blushing.The pretty girl from the dancing school, who was about five foot eight, clenched her legs and covered her skirt with her hands."He ... he bit me! No, he licked me!"The girl sitting on his crotch also got from Ray as quickly as she could.She was equally blushing from embarrassment. She even looked again at his belly, where she had stayed.The three girls had agreed to hit him together, but that
Ray was startled. He hurriedly stood up to drive Sophia out. "Get out.1 asked you to come to visit your sister, not to kick the door!"As soon as he came to Sophia , he frowned at the stench of alcohol from the three girls. "Did you just bathe in alcohol? Get out of here. The stench Will upset your sister."Sophia glared at Ray. "Fair enough.But if only you come with me and tell me what happened."in case she would make trouble again, Ray walked out of the ward with the three of them and closed the door behind him."Calm down. Your sister is fine. She will be discharged from hospital as soon as she woke up."Sophia was relieved. Then she asked why Sarah committed suicide. Ray had no choice but to tell the truth.The more Sophia heard, the angrier she got. In the end, gritting her teeth, she cursed, "You idiot! Not only are you useless, but you encouraged my sister to bet with Tristan, claiming that you had a way to help her get the contract.But what did you do in the end?Nothi
Brooks broke Milo's arm with just onehit..But it needed two to three hits when itcame to the lower leg.The crowd flew away after the police car pulled out, so no one could see the scene except for a shrill howl from a distance.Milo fainted after three of his limbs were broken. It was the brain that shut down compulsively to protect itself.Even so, his last leg was also broken.The bodyguards of the Garcia family used to be special forces soldiers or mercenaries. A bloody scene in average persons' eyes was small fry to them.After that, they turned to deal with Sofia, who fornicated with Darren.She was scared out of her pants whenBrooks raised the baseball bat to her."I confess! I hit Mr. Garcia with my hands. I didn't kick him!"Brooks frowned, "Now it's too late."Sounds of beating came.The bodyguards of the Garcia family never had compassion and tenderness toward women.They did what they said.After that, Sophia also fell into a swoon like Milo.Brooks waved his hand, "Th
