When they besieged the Larsons that night, Dante attacked her, and her injuries still hadn't fully healed."He went toward the Montgomerys," Ruth said.Upon hearing this, the white-haired elder said, "He dares not go to the McClains and even less to the Combat Department. So he can only go to the Montgomerys to get his revenge. This is perfect. I can use this opportunity to see if he can withstand a few moves from Eric."He had never seen Eric before, and Pierce had mentioned Eric multiple times in front of him. For him, Pierce was already considered a genius among geniuses, and he found it hard to believe there was someone even more talented than Pierce.Dante was planning retaliation. He couldn't do anything to Ruth for now, but he believed he could deal with Sylvia. He hated both women but chose the weaker target.He still didn't know that Eric had returned to the country. Dante planned to get his revenge first and then find a way to escape the country overnight, just like Eric
Eric said, "Uncle Alexander, I'm not very familiar with Jessica. I can't guarantee anything about this. It might be more appropriate for my mom to handle it."After successfully matchmaking several couples, Alexander considered involving Eric. Now, hearing Eric's words, he thought Grace might indeed be more suitable for the task.He looked at Grace, and she smiled. "We should first ask for Sean's opinion."Feeling the gaze, Sean quickly found an excuse to leave. Alexander could not help but sigh.Over the years, with Grace handling many things, he did not have to worry much. The only thing he worried about was Sean now."Being part of a wealthy family doesn't necessarily mean everything is good..." Alexander lamented.As the family chatted, a sudden shout echoed, "Sylvia! Come out and face me! Let's settle the score between us!"The guards were on high alert when they saw Dante swagger into the Montgomery residence.Sylvia wanted to face Dante, but Eric knew that Dante was desp
They all knew Eric possessed remarkable martial arts skills, but now he faced Dante, a seasoned Lieutenant General of the Combat Department.Just a month ago, Dante had successfully framed legendary figures like Pierce and Shadow. Dante was undoubtedly formidable, yet he was unable to withstand a single punch from Eric.He flew dozens of meters before crashing to the ground, blood spurting from his mouth, unable to raise his arm.Pierce and his group arrived at that moment. Witnessing Dante lying on the ground coughing blood, even Pierce couldn't help but be astonished. They were only two or three minutes behind Dante, yet Eric had already taken care of him.After the initial shock, Pierce waved his hand and ordered, "Take Dante away!"Since a major threat had been neutralized, Pierce felt relieved. Dante had colluded with Shadow, and the latter held evidence against him. If Shadow decided to use this leverage later, the consequences would be unimaginable.As Dante was taken away
After spending several months abroad, Eric had no major concerns but did find himself thinking about certain people.The following day, after a gathering with Pierce and the members of the Combat Department, Eric made preparations to return to Salt City.While in Phoenix City, aside from missing Sylvia, Eric also longed to be with his aging parents in Nutikiville. Despite their occasional visits, time constraints prevented him from spending as much time with them as he wished.Eric and Sylvia extended their stay in King City for a few days due to Seraphine and Sylvester's visit.-Before Sylvia departed King City, she left a few key executives to manage ongoing projects, and both she and Eric returned to Salt City.Eric's parents had already returned to Nutikiville a few days earlier.For the older generation, the comfort of staying in their hometown was unparalleled. They had spent the majority of their lives there, so the sentimental attachment was too strong to break.Upon t
"What do you mean?" Richard asked. Placing his hand on Delilah's forehead, he pressed on, "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if he's wealthy, he won't give us a penny!""Oh my god, you're such an idiot!" Delilah retorted. "Didn't you just say he was wanted? There's a lot of money for providing information about wanted criminals!"While talking, she pulled out her phone and called the police.Once the call connected, she hurried back into the house, shouting excitedly, "The wanted fugitive you're looking for has come to Nutikiville! He's killing chickens at home now!"Her excitement was palpable. The thought of the thick stack of money awaiting her barely allowed her to calm down.After the call, Delilah clutched her phone tightly, exclaiming, "We're going to be rich! We're really going to be rich, Richard!"Richard felt a surge of happiness, though a pang of regret hit him for not considering this earlier. If the funds arrived later, Delilah was unlikely to share a single
Gritting her teeth in resentment, Delilah looked at the two police officers and said, "Officers, are you sure? Weren't you constantly searching for him the past few days? Why aren't you pursuing him anymore?"The police officer chuckled and replied, "Yes, I'm certain. The warrant against him was revoked a few days ago. He's no longer a wanted fugitive, and there's no so-called reward."Delilah was stunned.The officers didn't say much and left after informing Delilah that Eric was no longer wanted.Sylvia took a bite of the carrot and asked, "Eric, why were the police at Delilah's house?"Eric glanced at the two police officers leaving in their car. "Who cares? What they do has nothing to do with us anyway."He had heard about the incident of Delilah and Richard throwing cow dung. It was quite ridiculous. Even though they were close relatives, they always found ways to make things difficult for him.-In the afternoon, Hank and his wife also came for lunch."This is great!" Ha
The reason for agreeing to meet Jasmine was that they had been in a relationship for nearly nine years.In the office, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Jasmine occasionally glanced at Eric. In her heart, she wondered if Sylvia's position would have been hers if she had not had not cheated on Eric and dumped him two years ago.However, she had no idea that Sylvia was the Williams heiress, let alone that Eric and Sylvia were high school classmates.Jasmine's face showed signs of hardships during this time."So, what's the matter? Why did you look for me?" Eric asked.Sylvia also stared at Jasmine. She knew why Eric had called her over. Neither of them were the type to cling to grudges, and they had forgiven Jasmine after so long had passed.In Sylvia's view, it seemed unlikely that Eric would rekindle a past relationship that had yielded no results for nine years."Well, I..." Jasmine bit her lip. "I want to borrow some money from you. Eric, you know my situation. I don't have
Eric and Sylvia resumed their normal lives. Regarding the matter with Jasmine, after borrowing money from them, she stopped bothering Eric and Sylvia.One day, Pierce called, asking Eric and Sylvia to go to King City. The issue involving Dante had officially concluded. Following Eric's altercation with him at the Montgomery residence, Dante was incapacitated. Even if he recovered, his martial prowess was gone.While not sentenced to death, Dante would spend the rest of his life in prison."Do I get a reward too?" Sylvia asked, pleasantly surprised that the Combat Department would acknowledge her.Eric smiled. "Why not? You're the reason Ruth, Big Boss, and I are here. Your contributions are indispensable. We admire your courage and determination. Even when Big Boss was captured and Ruth and I fled to Phoenix City, you still had the guts to stand up to Dante. So, of course, you're getting a reward."Sylvia played a truly vital role in this event. After receiving various items from
