This inevitably led to various speculations. What was the connection between the Feynmans, the money laundering station, and the underground arena in King City? Things had become more complicated and tricky with the Larsons gone and the Feynmans about to meet their downfall.-At King City Bank.Miller reported back to Pierce. His expression turned grim after learning that the Feynmans and King City's underground arena were involved in this matter."Big Boss, should we investigate the Feynmans?" Miller asked.It would be ridiculous to say the Feynmans were not involved in this matter since the money laundering station was established in the basement of one of their clubs.Pierce shook his head. "Let's not alert them for now. These elite families are not easy to deal with. If the Feynmans learn we're investigating them, it will be even harder to deal with them later."He hadn't forgotten the incident with the Larsons, which nearly delivered a heavy blow to the Combat Department.
The Montgomerys hadn't received much information, so the incident at King City Bank hadn't been exposed to the public yet."Why are you back?" Sylvia was curious when she saw Eric return. She thought Eric would have to stay at King City Bank to handle affairs there. From Nigel's actions, it was evident that the bank was involved in many shady dealings.Eric sat down and said, "Big Boss and the others took over. Ruth is also there. I have other tasks in the morning, so I came back to rest."Sylvia nodded."Apart from Sylvia, does anyone in our family have savings in King City Bank?" Eric asked.Grace sighed. "We don't, but a few of our family's bodyguards have some money there. I had them counted in the afternoon. If they can't withdraw money from King City Bank for the next three days, we will provide them with the money. They can return it when the bank's money becomes available."Grace had everything thought out. She knew that the Montgomery bodyguards were equally deserving.
The Combat Department's workload suddenly spiked.Pierce not only had to grapple with the aftermath left by King City Bank but also had to dispatch people to maintain order outside the bank.Glancing downstairs, Ruth couldn't help but frown. "So many people have arrived? The news has spread too quickly!"Without the Combat Department's constraints, information was only natural to spread rapidly. After the exposure of the incident at King City Bank, depositors swarmed in to retrieve their money."There's nothing wrong with people coming to take back their money. After all, most of them are just ordinary people who have worked hard for decades. The money in their accounts is their entire savings. How are they supposed to live if they can't get back their money?" Pierce said.Ruth sighed. They could only sympathize with the bank tellers as their workload would be overwhelming starting today.Although King City Bank had announced that it would not go bankrupt and withdrawals and tran
Julius was in the process of getting dressed.Following the revelation of the incident at King City Bank, he finally received some positive news—Montgomery Corp. had agreed to lend them money.Nera assisted Julius with his attire."Julius, take a deep breath. Life throws challenges at us, but didn't Montgomery Corp. assure us of financial assistance? We will surely navigate through this crisis," she comforted.Although Julius nodded, a troubled expression lingered on his face. The challenges the Hernandezes faced were more intricate than a simple loan.Once dressed, Julius prepared to leave, but Eric and Sylvia unexpectedly arrived.Nera swiftly served them coffee, pondering the reason for Eric's sudden visit. After all, he hadn't visited the Hernandezes since Javier's arrest.Addressing Julius calmly, Eric asked, "I heard Mr. Hernandez caused a stir at King City Bank today?"His words carried a hint of resentment.Sylvia and Nera remained silent, realizing that what seemed li
After a prolonged silence, Eric affirmed, "Yes, he is indeed my biological father, and nothing more. He was afraid of Javier and avoided coming to me. But what about Mom? I can't shake the feeling that Mom made a mistake by choosing him back then. If it weren't for him, would she have suffered so much?"Recalling his mother's plight, Eric felt that his own experiences were trivial. Despite being from a prestigious family, she was all alone in King City. Without Alexander, Eric wouldn't even dare to consider if his mother would still be alive. His identity would have remained a mystery if Grace had not sought him in Salt City.As such, Eric harbored deep resentment toward Julius."So many years have passed, and Mom hasn't found a partner. But what about him?" he said, then laughed sarcastically, "He married the eldest daughter of the Calles family. You know, I mentioned all that earlier simply because I have shares in Hernandes Corp. My money!"Sylvia couldn't help but chuckle. "You
Eric experienced Sylvia's captivating singing for the first time."Eric, now that Sylvia has sung, it's your turn to perform," Seraphine declared.Eric waved his hand hastily. "Please spare me the embarrassment. I'm tone-deaf. Let's not subject your ears to that."Despite Eric's protests, Seraphine was determined to hear him sing. However, their attention shifted as the door swung open, revealing two men.One of them smirked and remarked, "Seraphine, it's unusual to find you in a place like this. Why keep us in the dark about your presence?"Seraphine furrowed her brow and crossed her arms. "Marcus Calles, Charlie Lynar, did your parents not teach you to knock before entering someone's room?!"Marcus chuckled, joining Charlie at the table. He glanced at the beer and commented, "I heard the Montgomerys struck it rich, yet you're drinking this swill. Running short on cash? Let me know. I have plenty."He glanced at Eric and Sylvester before shifting his focus to Sylvia. "Seraphine
After confronting Charlie, Seraphine grabbed another beer bottle and turned to Marcus. "Do you also want to join in the fun?"Marcus recoiled in fear, glancing at Seraphine before hastily leaving with Charlie."Why did you hit them?" Sylvester questioned.Although Marcus and Charlie were annoying, resorting to violence seemed excessive."Marcus' aunt, Nera Calles, married Julius Hernandez. Rumor has it that he never touched her at all. Their marriage is merely a transaction."Back then, the Calles family was nothing more than a second-tier family in King City. They rose to first-rate status with the Hernandezes' assistance. Now that the Hernandezes are facing difficulties, it's the Montgomerys providing support. Aunt Grace wouldn't have led a difficult life if it weren't for the Calles."As for Charlie, did you know his second uncle wanted to marry Aunt Grace in the past? That jerk tried to take advantage of her and ended up losing his penis!"Sylvester nearly choked on his beer
Sylvester kept going, delivering a resounding slap to Charlie that sent the bandage covering his head flying.Meanwhile, Sylvia efficiently took down the group of people, dusting off her hands with a dissatisfied look."Not a single decent fighter among them," she remarked.Sylvester seized Charlie, shouting, "You, how dare you curse at my girlfriend?!"Seraphine was captivated. Initially, she was drawn to Sylvester's good looks, but his defense of her completely won her over.Charlie's mouth bled. Even with Sylvester holding back, it was too much for the playboy. The slap nearly knocked him unconscious, and he struggled to speak, spitting out a few teeth. Marcus trembled, afraid to utter a word."Sylvester, give him a few more slaps! He deserves a lesson!" Seraphine excitedly shouted.Seraphine had not seen Sylvester fight before. Although she acknowledged fighting was not commendable, she found him impressively cool.Sylvester was about to slap Charlie again, but the nightc
