"At this point, sighing is useless. I heard that Pinnacle Dynamics is recruiting a new director for the project development department. If someone from our Harris family can secure this position, we won't have to worry about project issues anymore." "You're right, we have many talented people in our family, everyone should try their luck at that corporation." Caroline said. "Exactly, I'll also give it a shot." Christian added. "Good, I have great confidence in the abilities of our descendants. As long as someone from the Harris family can infiltrate Pinnacle Dynamics, whoever it is will be a hero of our family. Whether we can become a prestigious family depends on that person!" Mr. Harris declared. ... Meanwhile, the Lopez and Miller families were also holding emergency family meetings to devise strategies to cope with the unfavorable situation. Since Conrad had offended a mysterious figure, leading to the dismissal of his uncle Everett and the termination of cooperation with Pin
Caroline and Christian were still outside the corporation building, sneering as they saw Lauren emerge as if in a trance. "I told you so, they wouldn't hire anyone from the Harris family. It's just embarrassing." Christian remarked. "Anderson, I thought you'd predict correctly again, but alas, you miscalculated this time! Dreaming about us begging you? Wake up!" Caroline scoffed mockingly. Then, they abruptly turned and left in their car. Anderson noticed Lauren's dazed state and frowned. Could Hannah have opposed him and recruited someone else? "Lauren, what happened? Weren't you accepted?" Anderson inquired urgently. "I got accepted!" Lauren slowly regained her composure, expressing her excitement. "So, you got in, but you still can't believe it's true, can you?" Anderson was momentarily speechless. "It feels like a dream, unreal." Lauren said. "Great, now that you're in at Pinnacle Dynamics, let's go home and celebrate!" Anderson suggested. "I can start working tomorrow, yo
"Kelly, what’s wrong? You seem surprised..." Lauren asked. "Lauren, are you really taking Anderson to the party?" Kelly was still in shock. "Yes, is there a problem? Can’t I bring my husband to a party?" Lauren queried. "Of course, it’s fine. Everyone brings their loved ones. I’m just surprised; don’t you usually feel embarrassed about him and hide him away at home? Why are you suddenly going out with him today?" Kelly remarked. "I’ve changed my mind about him, don’t worry about it." Lauren said. "Wow, right. It seems this Anderson is quite talented in other aspects!" Kelly commented. "What do you mean? What other aspects?" Lauren genuinely wanted to hear her best friend’s assessment of her husband. "First off, he’s handsome and tall, and his body looks pretty decent. Then look at his deep, melancholic eyes; it feels like they're hiding something." Kelly said. Being a novelist, she had a particularly rich imagination, often imagining those around her as mysterious and significa
Everyone knew Judith had always been at odds with Lauren since university, and she only wanted to flaunt her boyfriend to provoke Lauren. In terms of wealth, Lauren's husband might not be as affluent as Judith's boyfriend, but Lauren's prestigious family background was superior. A Harris family business was stronger than a thousand nightclubs. The comparison seemed somewhat mismatched. Though the Harris family wasn’t the strongest in Lightharbor, being just a second-tier family, this backing was still more solid than anyone else present. Judith didn’t even seem to realize this. Wasn’t she aware of her own shamelessness? Judith's introduction of her boyfriend didn’t garner much reaction, leaving her displeased. After all these years, even when Lauren had fallen into such dire straits, Judith still couldn’t surpass her, which was very frustrating. So, she added: "My boyfriend also owns a lot of guns. In the future, if anyone gets bullied, you can contact me." Hearing this, many peopl
No one dared to think that a famously useless man would talk back to Dennis in such a confrontational manner! Lauren couldn't believe her seemingly weak husband dared to stand up for her. But what he said was incredibly arrogant! Dennis's face suddenly turned very dark and coldly said: "Would you like to drink this glass for your wife?" Dennis had long heard about Anderson's uselessness and saw no need to respect him. "Drink with you? You’re not worthy." Anderson coldly replied. Who was he to drink with such people? Ridiculous! Everyone was shocked and terrified, unable to believe their ears that someone like Anderson would dare say Dennis was not worthy to drink with him! It was insane! So arrogant! Lauren and Kelly's eyes widened as they looked at Anderson, wondering when this weak and useless man had become so bold. Was he drunk and delirious? "You... well done!" Dennis gritted his teeth. The atmosphere suddenly became incredibly tense, and everyone seemed to hear the beatin
"Lauren’s husband showed no respect for you at all. He doesn’t take you seriously. You should teach them a lesson, show them what manners are! Otherwise, they will never respect you!" Judith, not wanting to let Lauren and her husband off the hook, began inciting Dennis. "Of course, I’ll teach them a lesson. You don’t need to say much." Dennis said irritably. "Good. Lauren just likes to pretend to be noble. It would be better if someone ruins her, let's see if she can still act high and mighty." Judith had seen Dennis being charmed by Lauren and was burning with jealousy. "Alright, I understand." Dennis responded and began to call some of his men. Judith also stepped out, taking the opportunity to use the restroom. … In the banquet hall… "Lauren's husband was very disrespectful to Dennis. Dennis wouldn’t be calling his gang now, would he?" A former student worriedly said. "It’s possible. Someone as fierce as Dennis, being scorned like that, surely won’t stay quiet. Only God knows
"If you still have the strength, wait for my people to come, then we'll go back and teach her a lesson." Dennis said. Hearing Dennis say this, the former classmates began to sweat. It turned out Dennis had really called for backup! They were unsure whether he was doing this to deal with Anderson or to bully the woman. "Alright, we'll wait for your people to come and then give her another lesson." Judith shouted to show her strength in front of her classmates. Hearing her nasty words, the others were horrified. Judith had changed, becoming increasingly outrageous and cruel. They felt it would be best to avoid any future contact with her. A classmate, not wanting to hear any more of Judith's vile words, changed the topic and said to Lauren: "Lauren, I heard you’re planning a wedding on the 14th, right? I’ll definitely send my best wishes." "You didn’t invite us to drink when you got married three years ago, don’t forget us this time!" A former male classmate said. "Alright, thank y
Anderson frowned, a murderous intent rising within him. Why would this scar-faced man harbor grudges against Judith and Dennis, and dare to lay a hand on his wife? Outrageous!"We have nothing to do with this, why are you taking us?" Lauren said."Because you two are friends of these people. They dared to hit my woman, just taking their lives isn't enough to quench my anger, so you two must pay along with them." Edwin coldly stated.Here, only Lauren and Kelly were the most beautiful, and Edwin harbored a sick desire to capture them for his twisted games. Even though Camille was Edwin's mistress, she dared not object if he wanted to take Lauren and Kelly. Men like Edwin had countless women; she was just one of many mistresses.Edwin's men started moving towards Lauren and Kelly. Seeing the situation turning grim, the former male students immediately surrounded them to provide protection."Stop causing trouble! Or we'll fight you to the end!" Duncan, the class president, said decisivel
Seeing Youssef lunging, Anderson swung a heavy punch right in the middle of his forehead."Ah…" Youssef screamed and was thrown backward."Bang…" His back hit the wall with a loud thud.Then his body slid down the wall to the floor, blood staining a section of the wall.Now his face was pale, devoid of any blood, lying crumpled on the ground like a dying dog, completely motionless.Catching sight of Anderson's swinging fist, the boss of the Fierce Tiger gang lay sprawled on the ground, Kelly was stunned!She thought to herself, Anderson, always regarded as ineffective, was a man of many secrets. It was unfortunate that Lauren was not here to witness her husband's fierce and heroic demeanor.In the eyes of many, the force of the Fierce Tiger gang was immensely fearsome, but in front of Anderson, they seemed just like a bunch of bugs, easily squashed.When she first heard that Mr. Timothy had been killed by this criminal gang, she thought Anderson had no chance of avenging his father. Y
Gregory was a three-star lieutenant. Someone like him couldn’t possibly accompany Anderson to such a dangerous place without bringing some backup!With this thought, Kelly felt much calmer."Want to come here for revenge? How many people did you bring?" Youssef asked arrogantly."To deal with small fries like you, why would we need many people to make a scene? Just the two of us are more than enough." Anderson said coldly.Kelly was surprised to hear this. How could Anderson and Gregory dare to enter the den of the Fierce Tiger gang alone without reinforcements? Were they too arrogant?"Haha, you two nobodies dare to invade my territory without help, truly as bold as if you were deaf to the danger! Your arrogance is irritating! If you want to die that badly, I'll grant your wish!" Youssef said, laughing maniacally."Let’s see who dies first! I will turn your Wonderland into a living hell." Anderson smirked."Fine! If you're capable, come here and kill me!" Youssef, wanting no more idl
"What have you brought me here for??" Kelly had never heard of any Wonderland Club, but as soon as she was brought in, she smelled the strong smoke and heard loud voices, guessing this was certainly not a good place."What for? Obviously, to have you work for us later on." Youssef sneered."Dream on, I'd rather die than work in a filthy place like this!" Kelly angrily responded."Of course, you wouldn't want to work here just yet, but after my guys record a few intimate videos between us, you’ll have to obey." Youssef laughed, clearly pleased with himself."I have no quarrel with you people, why do you want to harm me?" Kelly realized she was about to be violated and was completely cornered, but still wanted to try to prolong the conversation to look for a way to escape, so she continued to find something to ask Youssef.Kelly could never have imagined that she would end up in this den of evil; this was truly a horrifying disaster for her."True, there's no grievance between us, but m
In a large room at the end of the corridor, a man with a thick beard sat next to four other men.He was the leader of the Fierce Tiger gang, one of those involved in killing Timothy, the very man Anderson was searching for.Suddenly, several thugs pushed Kelly into the room, one of them excitedly said: "Brother Thu, look what we've just caught, a beautiful girl right off the street.""Good, quickly take off her hood and let me see." Youssef commanded.The subordinate immediately removed Kelly’s hood.As the hood came off, Kelly realized she was in a large, sealed room. A man with a scruffy beard stared intently at her, and a few other men in black stood around him.Kelly quickly grasped the gravity of her situation; she was terrified, trembling all over, and tried to scream, but her mouth was still taped shut.Kelly had never seen Youssef before; she did not know he was the notorious leader of the Fierce Tiger gang, also the murderer of Timothy – Anderson’s foster father.Youssef cold
But Anderson quickly waved his hand to cut him off: "Enough! No need to discuss it further! I've made my decision. Just follow it!""Understood, General Campbell!" Gregory had no choice but to comply with Anderson's plan."Moreover, to catch the big fish, I can't let anyone find out my true identity. So, tell the task force to alter my personal records." Anderson said."What exactly should we do, sir?" Gregory asked, frowning."It's not complicated, just ask the higher-ups to encrypt my information at the highest level and only show on the public records that I'm a regular special forces soldier." Anderson explained."Got it! I'll get right on it." Gregory said, then hurried off.At the same time, Tobias Obrien, Chairman of the City Law Council, received a call from the Cruz family asking him to investigate Anderson's identity.Tobias Obrien couldn't refuse a request from the wealthiest family in the city, so he personally looked into Anderson's records.After some research, he discov
"What is it? Tell me now!!" Anderson urged, anxious."I just received a confidential document sent from higher up." Gregory said."What confidential document?" Anderson asked, surprised."Our superiors also realize that this city of Lightharbor is too chaotic and facing many issues. Many people in key positions within the city's leadership are corrupt and of poor character. Therefore, our superiors have decided to establish a secret investigative commission." Gregory explained."So, it's about that. But I'm just a man who's been at war all year round, what does that have to do with me?" Anderson asked."It does! It's directly related to you. The higher-ups know that you are originally from Lightharbor, born and raised here. Currently, you are on leave at home. Therefore, they have appointed you as the head of the investigation team." Gregory revealed."What? I still have to work during my vacation? How can this still be called a vacation?" Anderson grimaced, clearly displeased."Broth
Anderson almost fell over backward, shocked that his kind and gentle Lauren could entertain such violent thoughts!"You're even considering hiring the underworld?" Anderson couldn't believe his ears."It's just a plan, don't shout about it!" Lauren whispered, regretting her slip of the tongue."The underworld or hired goons are unreliable, don't be deceived by them." Anderson said, starting to sweat. The Sentry Dragon Warrior was right in front of her, and she was still thinking of hiring assassins?"I'm just worried that if you keep acting rashly like you did this afternoon, you'll find yourself in danger sooner or later. Hiring assassins is the best way to both get revenge and avoid those bad situations." Lauren argued, clearly unhappy with Anderson's disapproval."Don't worry about revenge. This place is full of villains. You never know when you might be deceived. Hiring assassins really isn't a good idea!" Anderson said calmly."Fine! Then I won't interfere in this matter anymore.
As soon as the two left, the Cruz residence quickly descended into chaos. Tucker Cruz and Norman were both severely injured and immediately taken to the hospital for treatment.The guests invited to the party were terrified by Anderson's astounding power, and they were also shocked by his words as he prepared to leave. No one dared stay at the Cruz house any longer, to avoid getting involved.Ultimately, Mrs. Cruz's celebration was completely ruined by Anderson, with the masters injured and the grandson crippled. All the guests fled in fear.Anderson had indeed instilled immense fear and hatred throughout the entire Cruz family.After things settled down a bit, Mrs. Cruz immediately organized a family meeting to discuss countermeasures for the next seven days.......On the way back, Gregory asked confusedly: "Mr. Campbell! Was it okay for us to spare Tucker Cruz today and cause such chaos at the Cruz's? Why did you suddenly change your mind to let him live another seven days?""Soone
He knew Norman's strength, a man with fists as hard as iron. Since knowing him, Tucker had never seen him defeated by any opponent.Norman still couldn't find any opening in Anderson, but he couldn't just stand there forever, so he rushed towards Anderson's right side to punch him first.Immediately, quick as a gust of wind, Anderson moved aside to dodge the punch, while delivering a punch of his own to Norman's body!"Thump-----" the sound of the fist colliding with the body was distinctly audible.Followed by the sound of breaking bone "Crack----".Norman was suddenly pushed back, his right arm bending unnaturally.Meanwhile, Anderson still stood still, his right foot still stepping on Tucker, without any signs of being disturbed!Norman staggered back seven or eight steps before managing to stop himself with his feet.At this point, Norman's face turned pale. Apart from the broken bone in his right arm, his fingers were also broken. A part of the bone at the elbow protruded, and hi
