“How dare you say that with such certainty?”

Katherine finally spoke up, stepping forward to address Monica.

Hearing this, Monica’s expression turned slightly awkward.

Clearly, this was a sensitive issue for her, but it seemed Katherine, despite sensing the sensitivity, still expected an answer from Monica.

Sensing the tension, Justin intervened:

“Well, being in the military, it’s not uncommon to know a thing or two about these matters.”

“So... they’ve been setting me up from the beginning, haven’t they? To separate me from Julie.”

Mr. Thomas couldn’t believe it.

He had been played from the start, manipulated by those two girls.

Now, thinking back, he wanted nothing more than to tear apart the innocent façade those two had portrayed.

He slapped his own head in frustration, berating himself, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been so... greedy, Julie wouldn’t have been taken.”

“What are you talking about!?”

Laura, as if catching onto something, lunged forward, grabbing her husband by the

    “Justin...”Monica gently touched his shoulder as she noticed him, deep in thought. Justin snapped out of his reverie and said, “They must have just left or are still at the airport. Monica, help me check the airports in the city to see if there are any flights with unusual numbers.”“Yes...”Monica replied, but before she could finish, Justin suddenly interjected, “No, let me go with you. This is urgent; we can’t delay any longer.”Justin tried to keep himself calm. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.Typically, he wouldn’t panic or lose control in a crisis, but now that his daughter was directly involved, it was difficult for him to remain composed.“This kid... leave his name and contact number. I’ll get in touch with him later.”“Okay.”One of Justin’s bodyguards approached, took the contact information from the boy, and escorted him home.As Justin turned to head towards his car, a hand grabbed him, accompanied by a stern voice.“Justin, what’s going on?”It was Katherine,

    Justin’s actions, while normal to him, always left others breathless.Monica couldn’t count how many times she had witnessed such scenes.And now she sensed Justin was about to do something unsafe again.“It’s okay, trust me, at this moment, remember that I’m your lord.”Having said that, without waiting for Monica to respond or say anything else, he directly climbed up and successfully sat in the driver’s seat.The driver, seeing him like this, was a bit startled and asked, “My Lord, what are you doing?”“Move to the back seat. Let me take the wheel.”At that moment, the cars in front moved at a faster pace. The road cleared up, and there was space.The cars behind honked impatiently, prompting their driver to speed up at a steady pace.Now on the highway, Justin couldn’t stop to switch seats. Moreover, it would take time.So it was best to change seats while the car was still moving. A dual-purpose action, just like that.“Hurry up!” Justin urged.“Yes, sir.”Justin reached confiden

    Justin quickly made his way to the security checkpoint leading to the special airport area.As he approached, he couldn’t help but notice the increased security measures in place.The area is strictly guarded, with armed security forces stationed at every corner.Metal detectors and X-ray machines are scanning each passenger and luggage to ensure no threats can get through.Everywhere, security personnel were distributed in a circle, seemingly unwilling to let a single ant enter.As Justin stepped closer, he felt the security guard’s eyes on him.Their attitudes change, becoming more alert and alert. His presence had aroused suspicion among them.“Ask.” A person stepped forward and stopped him.“This is a restricted area, as long as unauthorized people may not enter. Please go.”Justin knew he couldn’t use negotiation or any other violent method to get in here. So he went straight to the point:“Let’s have a battle. I’ll go in based on my ability.”His somewhat arrogant statement surp

    “Hurry, we have little time left.”Justin said, then he and Monica quickly passed the security gate and rushed inside.This airport is surrounded by sturdy fences and strict security measures. The buildings are tall and impressive, reflecting the power of the place. The runways and landing strips are large and carefully maintained to ensure absolute safety for flights. Signs and logistics systems are equipped with modern equipment, helping to ensure smooth and safe movement of aircraft.Besides, there is a special area reserved for military flights and high-ranking officials. This area is strictly protected and does not allow access from the outside. The waiting and reception rooms are luxurious and classy, providing all the amenities for officials and leaders.This special runway is not only a place reserved for military flights and high-ranking officials, but is also equipped with strict security and control systems. Planes taking off and landing here are carefully controlled to ens

    Justin stood in front of the plane and reached out to touch it.The old fighter plane rests in the airport's corner, with its surface oxidized and scratched from time and battle.The fuselage is covered with a layer of cold gray paint. The color has faded because of time.On the fuselage, scratches and wounds from previous battles clearly appeared, representing past battles.The plane’s wings, which seemed to have lost their former shine, were now just a layer of rusted metal.The wings bend in an irregular shape, but still reflect the majesty and strength of the aircraft. Inside, the engines and systems are outdated and marred by age.Inside the cockpit, darkness covered the space, with only odd light coming from small gaps.The driver’s seat and dashboard have deteriorated, but still keep the majesty and flexibility of the wartime era.“Lord…”“Justin…”Both Monica and Caesar now seemed to guess what Justin was about to do. They wanted to stop him even though they knew that the prob

    “Okay, thank you.”“My lord, what do you plan to do?”“An act of friendship first.” Justin spoke softly. He didn’t know whether or not Caesar heard. But at this time, he disconnected from Caesar.The reason he did this was that he currently needed to connect with another party.Justin turned on his transmitter. The crackling sounds showed he had not yet received the signal from the plane on the other side. Until the sounds gradually became clearer.“MZ5044, please listen.” A man’s voice rang out.Immediately after that, Justin lowered his voice and tried to speak in a nasal voice so as not to be detected:“Hello, I am currently having fuel problems and can I please land on your plane?”Justin’s offer was passed on. On the other side, after listening, an employee immediately turned and said to a man sitting nearby smoking a cigar:“Major General, there is a plane requesting to land on our plane.”“Shoot down.” That man spoke coldly.After hearing this, the aircraft staff couldn’t help

    “Who’s in charge here?! The King has entrusted me with full control of this ship. Whatever I say goes, understood? Furthermore, look at that old airplane. It must be the enemy deliberately approaching us. On board now is Lord Justin’s daughter, remember? If the enemy infiltrates here and our mission fails, will you be able to bear the responsibility!?”The lieutenant roared, his eyes fierce and his face as sinister as a demon from hell about to claim lives.The other soldiers bowed their heads, shrinking back, quickly obeying.Since a while ago, he had always brought up the matter of Justin’s daughter being on the aircraft to intimidate others. But in truth, there was no emotion in his eyes. The lieutenant’s hands moved swiftly across the control panel, while his face betrayed a calculating expression.“Hurry, use self-propelled missiles, take down that strange aircraft and return to our country. Don’t let it obstruct us any longer.”“Yes, sir.”The soldier, hesitating slightly, press

    When the aircraft had descended to a certain altitude that Justin deemed appropriate, he hoicked the control stick, causing it to stall.He keenly felt the sinister wind currents below the ravine, akin to demonic hands trying to drag him down to hell.But Justin refused to give in. He wrestled with them. And finally, Justin pulled the nose of his aircraft up, bringing it back to a horizontal trajectory.However, he didn’t command the aircraft to ascend at this moment. At the last moment, he released the throttle, and the aircraft plunged towards the wall of the mountain in front of him.A sense of freedom ignited in his heart.The missile still relentlessly pursued him from behind.“Now’s the time,” Justin growled as the nose of the aircraft was just half a meter away from the mountain wall ahead, and a collision seemed imminent. He continued to pull the control stick, successfully forming a parabolic path, soaring upwards.In the last moments, the self-propelled missile couldn’t adju

    The sudden incident left Jeannie terrified. Even after the bicycle was hit, she hadn’t recovered.Ricard comforted Jeannie and then angrily walked to the driver's seat of the BMW, shouting, "What kind of driving is this? Didn’t you see the red light?""What's the rush? What's the rush?" The car door opened, and the young man stepped out slowly, "I didn't hit anyone. Just compensate you, right? How much do you want? Three thousand yuan enough?"The young man pulled out three thousand yuan from his pocket and threw it on the car's hood. Before Ricard could respond, he added another three thousand: "If it's not enough, here’s six thousand, okay?"Ricard took a deep breath, "This is not about money. I need your attitude, apologize to us!""Apologize? You must be joking. I didn't hit you. You just want money, right? Fine, here's ten thousand yuan. Is that enough?" The young man threw another stack of money on the hood.He then glanced at Jeannie, trying to gauge her reaction, but she didn'

    The staff's words made Jeannie unconsciously look at Ricard.Although they had registered their marriage more than a month ago and even took wedding photos, their relationship had always been lukewarm. Now, suddenly being called Ricard's girlfriend, Jeannie's heart skipped a beat, and even the tension of the impending bungee jump was pushed aside."Hey, man, come here. What are you hiding from? Your girlfriend dares to jump, and you're hiding behind her. Come and hold her tightly." The staff urged, waving at Ricard.Of course, Ricard didn't refuse the staff's suggestion to jump while holding Jeannie, cheerfully running over.Jeannie looked at Ricard in front of her, seeming a bit hesitant: "Didn't we buy two separate tickets? Can't we jump one at a time?""That's right, a couple's ticket. Come here and stand firm, put on the equipment, and don't mess around." The staff said while fitting the equipment on Jeannie and Ricard. The eighty-meter-high jump platform had a hot wind blowing in

    “Sure.” Ricard didn't hesitate to hand the Coca-Cola to Jeannie.Jeannie looked at the dark carbonated drink in her hand. There were many things she always wanted to try: singing wildly, acting cute like other girls, playing with social media apps, buying her favorite snacks. But due to her family's strict upbringing, she never did anything too extreme. She never went to karaoke to sing loudly, never bought a pile of snacks, never bought a bunch of cold drinks in the summer. She always maintained a calm and mature demeanor, drinking a hot cup of tea at the company every day. Sometimes she would see others with a cold drink and feel a desire to take a sip, but she feared that doing so would shatter the dignified image she had built in front of her employees. Although she appeared to have many things, she had never experienced things that were easily within reach for ordinary people.Like Coca-Cola. When she was young, her family didn't let her touch these carbonated drinks. As she grew

    For Ricard, physical endurance wasn’t an issue. Cycling seventy kilometers, even carrying Jeannie, was no problem for him. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, making the time fly by.Two hours passed unnoticed. The midday sun blazed overhead, heating the road. Ricard cycled along the highway, enjoying occasional shade from roadside trees."President Demneri, are you thirsty? I’ll buy us some drinks." Ricard stopped at a roadside stall, buying two cold Coca-Colas."Why Coca-Cola?" Jeannie asked, puzzled.“For the refreshing taste.” Ricard took a gulp, letting out a satisfied “Ah.”“I’ll have water instead.” Jeannie placed the Coke on the counter, opting for a bottle of mineral water.Ricard gallantly opened the bottle for her, and Jeannie took small sips.Ricard could tell Jeannie was very thirsty, but she still drank slowly, a habit from childhood.“Alright, let’s go. Only twenty kilometers left. If I speed up, we can reach Haihu soon and enjoy the afternoon there.”Ricard resume

    Ricard heard the cheers and smiled, looking at the woman standing at the microphone with pride. This was his wife, capable and talented! With a few short sentences, she had inspired everyone’s enthusiasm. The employees' attitude towards work could indeed shape the future development of the company.Irena, who had just been fired, had packed her belongings and quietly left through the side entrance of the company. Seeing Maria with a large rose pinned to her chest, standing at the front of the company and receiving praise, made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She had heard everything Jeannie said over the microphone. Five hundred thousand, even split between two, was still two hundred and fifty thousand each! Why should Maria get that money?Irena glared at the company's main entrance with resentment. If it weren’t for Maria and that damned new hire, today’s events wouldn't have involved her!Irena took a deep breath, trying to console herself. Even if Maria got two hundred and fifty

    Jeannie chuckled lightly. "In the end, you're still trying to comfort me, but in your own unique way.""Am I? Ha ha." Ricard laughed heartily, ruffling his hair. "Sit down." Jeannie gestured to Ricard.Ricard did not stand on ceremony, sprawling comfortably on the sofa.Jeannie poured him a cup of tea, an unprecedented gesture from her. This act made Ricard feel both pampered and uneasy. "No, no!" Ricard quickly stopped her."What's the matter? Are you mocking me?" Jeannie shot Ricard a sharp look. "A man who can easily get the head of the largest corporation in France to come to Supperazza to sign a contract can’t accept a cup of tea from me?"Ricard gave a wry smile. Initially, he hadn't planned to let Jeannie know about Eugene, but with today's events, including Prince Charles’s presence, there was no way to keep it hidden.After pouring the tea, Jeannie sat down opposite Ricard, lightly rubbing her forehead. "As usual, explain.""Ah… I saved Eugene’s life once, and since then he’s

    When Eugene heard that Jeannie was Ricard's wife, his expression immediately turned respectful. "Lovely lady, forgive me for saying, but you truly are the most beautiful angel I've ever met.""Uncle Eugene is the manager of the Zefiro Group, the largest financial group in France," Prince Charles reintroduced Eugene to Jeannie.Although Prince Charles didn't use flowery language or mention astronomical wealth, saying it was the largest in France was enough for Jeannie to understand the significance of the old man standing before her. A man like this could hardly be someone Ricard found to collude in defrauding the company.Outside the reception room, Naccy and her group waited for the outcome.Jeannie quickly exited the reception room, and they all looked at her, awaiting a response.Jeannie scanned the group and spoke, "Director Naccy, this has been a misunderstanding. Mr. Eugene is indeed the partner Ricard found.""How can that be?" Naccy's first reaction was disbelief. How could so

    "Mr. Eugene, please wait. I'll go get Ricard.""No need," Eugene called Maria back. "Ricard entrusted this deal to me. If you don't sign it, I'll refuse to cooperate.""What?""Girl, how your company distributes the bonus between you and Ricard is none of my business. You can discuss it with your boss later. For now, go get the contract."The sudden success of the deal and the enormous bonus were overwhelming for Maria. It took her a while to process it.As Maria left the reception room to get the contract, her face still showed signs of disbelief.Everyone in the business department saw Maria's expression. When she left the reception room, they all started talking."What's wrong? Couldn't close the deal?""She looks like she failed.""She's a rookie trying to handle a deal herself. What did you expect?"Kristy and others showed disdain. "No," Maria waved her hands. "The deal is done. The client agreed to sign the contract.""Signed?" Kristy's eyes widened in disbelief.

    "Three... hundred thousand?" Maria's eyes glazed over at the number. Her family was ordinary, and her parents had worked hard their whole lives without saving that much money. Three hundred thousand was enough to buy a house in Supperazza, enough for someone unemployed to live comfortably for years, or to buy a BMW. For Maria, three hundred thousand was an unimaginable fortune.Hearing Eugene say that this deal alone could yield a bonus of three hundred thousand made Maria feel like she was dreaming. "Girl, so, will you sign the contract, or do I need to call Ricard?"Maria swallowed hard, stammering, "I... I..."Hearing Maria's response, Eugene felt a bit disappointed. He understood that three hundred thousand might not mean much to him, but it could change an ordinary person's life. With three hundred thousand, they could buy a big house, a luxury car."I... I need to call Ricard and ask him to treat me to a good meal. Three hundred thousand is a lot! Mr. Eugene, please wait a momen
