"You know, all these years, I've been torn, not knowing whether to arrest him or not." The strong liquor quickly took effect. Liam swayed in her seat and suddenly leaned against Ricard, giggling. "But today, I'm not conflicted anymore. My dad handed over the leadership of Aishah to me. He told me there are many ways to promote good and eliminate evil. Aishah bans drugs and gambling in Mozzafiato's bars. What they do, even the police can't achieve!"

Ricard nodded, pouring himself a drink and looking at Liam in his arms. "I understand your reasoning, but why are you lying in my arms?"

"For indulgence, ha ha." Liam snuggled closer, her head resting on his chest. Her flat belly was just inches from his hand. If he wanted, he could wrap his arms around her slender waist at any moment.

The nightclub's music and flashing lights filled the air.

"Since I'm going to indulge, shouldn’t my first act of rebellion be finding a man?" Liam's arm draped around Ricard's neck, her eyes half-closed, star

    "What about acupuncture points?" Milan didn't feel Ricard was bragging. She had experienced his massage skills before."I know that too," Ricard replied casually. "Acupuncture points are the basics of traditional Chinese physical therapy.""That's strange," Milan muttered."What's strange?" Ricard asked."In theory, if you know these physical therapy methods, Jeannie shouldn't need to find doctors all over the place.""Doctors?" Ricard's face became tense. "What’s wrong with my wife?""Not your wife, it's Ngữ Lam's grandfather. Didn't you know?" Milan looked at Ricard, surprised."I didn't know," Ricard shook his head. "What's going on?"Milan sighed. "For years, Jeannie's grandfather has been seriously ill, with no cure in sight. Jeannie has been looking for doctors everywhere. I think you should go take a look. If you can cure her grandfather, she wouldn't be so tired now.""What exactly is going on?" Ricard set aside the cleaning cloth and stood up from the floor.Ricard had never

    "Jeannie, what's wrong?" Milan asked, confused."I... I don't know how to explain it to you. Let's get to the old estate first!" Jeannie stepped on the gas pedal, the car roaring as it sped towards the Demneri grand estate.Ricard looked at the grand estate with its mountains and water, understanding the Demneri family's status in Mozzafiato.Having such a grand estate in Mozzafiato wasn't just about money; it indicated other significant status.Following the butler along the main road, Ricard admired the lush greenery and blooming flowers on either side.Ricard saw a familiar face outside the main house.Karl smiled coldly at Ricard. "Ricard, the Demneri grand estate is not a place where you can just come and go as you please."Ricard clenched his fist. "If you want to be punched, just say so."Karl was stunned, then sneered. "Keep being arrogant. I want to see how you act after you leave the main house."Ricard was puzzled by Karl's words. Was he going to be kicked out after meeting

    These board members avoided Jeannie's gaze.Jeannie checked her watch. "Karl, according to the company's schedule, you shouldn't be here right now.""Hah!" Karl sneered. "President Demneri, instead of questioning me, you should go inside and see what trouble your 'good' husband has caused!"Has Ricard caused trouble?Jeannie felt a surge of anxiety, ignoring Karl, and quickly walked to the main house's entrance."Oh, President Demneri!" Karl called after her. "If you can't keep your chairmanship, you should step down soon, ha ha ha!"Jeannie knocked on the door of the main house."Sir, Miss Jeannie is here," the butler announced from inside.Jeannie stood nervously at the door, her anxiety growing, uncertain what trouble Ricard might have caused this time.After a long pause, there was no response from inside.Jeannie's heart pounded in her chest."Sir?" The butler knocked again."Let Jeannie in," Logan's weak voice came from inside.Jeannie muttered a silent prayer, then pushed the d

    Jeannie was driving when she received a call from Serena, who said the shareholders had requested a meeting.When Jeannie entered the Demneri Corporation conference room, it was already full.Her two cousins, Karl and Daniel, sat at the head of the table, and the major shareholders of Demneri Corporation were also present. The lead lawyer held a document and stood in the conference room.Seeing the scene before her, Jeannie smiled slightly. "Is everyone here? Then let's begin."She walked to the chairman's seat, pulled out the chair, and sat down.The shareholders exchanged glances, and one spoke first."According to statistics, Demneri Corporation's profit margin this month is..."Not far from the city's ring road, there was a large industrial area that had declined in recent years. Many factories had closed, leaving behind some scrap machinery, occasionally visited by scavengers. Most of the removable parts had been taken.In an old workshop, screams occasionally echoed.Jordanne, c

    Karl smirked as she approached. "Demneri, have you forgotten that this seat is no longer yours?"Jeannie stopped in front of Karl. "Who said I wanted the Chairman's seat?"After speaking, Jeannie pulled out the Chairman of the Board's chair and sat down under the astonished gazes of everyone in the room.Karl, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, jumped up and shouted, "Jeannie, what are you doing? This isn't your seat!""Ha ha, Karl, how unfortunate. This seat is indeed mine."Everyone in the room could see the large words on the document Jeannie pulled out.Share Transfer Agreement!Those six red words were imprinted deeply in their eyes.At this moment, the meeting room door opened, and Logan, dressed in a suit, walked in from outside."Chairman of the Board!" a shareholder stood up straight upon seeing Logan and greeted him."Chairman of the Board, you... you can walk now..." someone stammered, incredulous."Grandfather, you!" Karl stared wide-eyed at Logan, feeling a bit fl

    Despite four Mozzafiato needles being inserted into the patient's body, there was no reaction.The doctor's frown deepened. He had practiced medicine for decades and encountered many cases of unconsciousness, but none were as mysterious as this.At this moment, a voice from the crowd reached the doctor's ears."You used the Shenting, Touwei, Chengjiang, and Baihui points, hoping to stimulate the brain's nerves and wake him up. But this person is in a state of apparent death. Even with acupuncture, he won't react."The doctor looked up, seeing a young man in a white tank top and pink shorts, holding a bag and speaking slowly."How do you know he is in a state of apparent death?" the doctor asked, not dismissing the young man's words as nonsense, realizing that someone who didn't understand wouldn't know about the points he used."It's clear you only checked his pulse and pupils but forgot that traditional Chinese medicine says everything is connected. His pupils are contracted, and he

    Ricard looked over to see several security guards blocking the entrance, and the shouts were coming from a well-dressed woman.The guards looked at each other awkwardly, unsure of what to do."Ma'am, our Chairman has a policy that if you want to see her, you need to make an appointment," one guard, who looked like the team leader, said."An appointment? I need an appointment to see her? You dogs get out of my way!" The middle-aged woman shouted, pushing the guard in front of her.Ricard frowned. Isn't this Karl's mother? Is she here to cause trouble?Ricard had already been briefed about the events at Demneri Corporation the previous day.Due to charges of commercial and financial fraud, Karl had been taken into custody, and Demneri's legal team had sued him. If nothing unexpected happened, Karl would be sentenced to at least ten years, effectively ruining his life."Get out of my way! I don't want to talk to you minions!" Karl's mother continued to shout, barging into the lobby."You

    Director Portelli, seeing that Jeannie and Ricard knew each other, breathed a sigh of relief. This meant he wouldn't be held responsible."Secretary Serena, tell everyone to disperse. Clear the area," Jeannie waved her hand.Serena nodded.The crowd outside the security room was cleared away by Serena, and Director Portelli returned to his post.After everyone left, Jeannie looked at Ricard and asked, "Why did you go to my grandfather and have him arrange for you to join the company?""Because I want to see you every day," Ricard said straightforwardly, flashing his white teeth.Jeannie was taken aback, then burst into laughter. "Such a smooth talker. Fine, since you're here, but you shouldn't stay as the Deputy Head of Security. You might not learn anything useful. I'll speak with Director Portelli. You should go to the Business Department first. I'm free these days, so I'll take you to get familiar with things.""Okay!" Ricard replied enthusiastically.Jeannie didn't say much more t

    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. She knew the v

    "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
