last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Dave Cameron was too shocked when Artis casually remarked that he would be investing $6 billion instead of the $3 billion he had actually asked…

And so, he had only been partially listening when Artis had placed his condition. But as soon as he realized that it was regarding a construction company, he had no reason to object!

After all, why would he stand in his own way of getting such a substantial sum of money and almost doubling the scale of his legacy project?

So, he quickly agreed without hesitating even for a moment, eagerly shaking Artis' hand.

"Everything will be as per your wishes, Mr. Hardy! Please be rest assured, you will be consulted every step of the way."

"Then, let's call it a deal, Dr. Cameron."

Artis suggested, prompting Dave to pick up the glasses of champagne from a nearby waiter's tray, and handing one. All the guests were looking on in awe as the two parties toasted to their project.

It was rare that Dave Cameron left Artis' side for more than a few moments for

    Chad finally managed to stand on his own two feet, supported by Dante, and he lunged straight at Artis."Do you even know what you have done–""I told you more than enough times now! Stay away from my wife, what don't you understand?"Artis growled threateningly before Chad could even finish his sentence, making him take a few steps back. Dante barely managed to hold him back, as the blood spurted out of his nose. But Chad was seething with fury, and he was even more enraged to witness the lack of remorse from Artis. Ignoring the blood trickling down his face, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number while glaring at Artis menacingly. "Jimmy," he spat into the phone, "I need you to handle something for me. Come over to the Victorian Grande hotel; there's a situation that requires your… expertise."Artis, unfazed by Chad's ominous call, maintained a calm demeanor. He looked Chad directly in the eye and remarked, "Interesting, is this what you label an attack? A single punch from

    "Chad, please listen to me, at least you should listen to me! Please don't…""Alright, then."Chad suddenly broke his silence and spoke up, making Scarlet stop abruptly in the middle of her pleas.Instead, she was looking at his face in disbelief and hope, until she finally found the words to express herself. "Then, do you agree? Will you really let–"Before she could even finish her question, Chad began to speak over her;"I will let him go, but I have a condition."He had barely finished his sentence before Scarlet hurriedly answered;"Yes, anything! Anything you say, it is acceptable to me–""Oh, darling… don't you know, you should never agree to a bargain you don't even know the terms of? But anyway, I have no doubt that you can fulfill it, if you wish… come on, let's have dinner first. And then, we will discuss your little request in private, maybe we can even go back to my place? What do you say…?"Scarlet's expressions accurately conveyed her shock and incredulity on hearing h

    "Listen, mister! I have already tolerated your disrespectful behavior for long enough. How can you even imagine insulting a person of his stature? In any case, causing a ruckus within the hotel premises is not something we take lightly. So this is your last warning before I get you thrown out."Jessica gave Chad a stern warning, leaving him seething. He wanted to reply with harsh words, but she didn't even give him a chance to say a single word before turning to face Artis."Mr. Hardy, please let me know if you face any further problems because of this person. I will promptly instruct the security to kick him out.""Thanks a lot, Miss–""Stop! Stop this nonsense right now! What is happening over here? Have I just stepped into a parallel universe or something? What do you mean, you will kick ME out, on his word? Is there some misunderstanding–"Before Chad could continue his rant any further, he was interrupted by the sound of his phone ringing for the third time. "Who the hell is it…

    "What consequences? Artis, what are you talking about, does this have anything to do with you?" Scarlet had been watching the live reports of the ongoing events at the Berhans family, on the television in the hotel lobby. At first, she had allowed the waiter to escort her to the table, but as soon as she had heard the commotion outside, she had rushed out.However, she still remembered his promise of telling her everything later, and that's why she had been observing the situation from afar. Artis didn't seem to be in any danger till now. So, her attention had been diverted by the news headlines running on the television screen.But the moment she saw Chad kneeling on the ground and begging for Artis' mercy, she could not stop herself from running over and asking him this. On the other hand, Artis looked at Scarlet with a mix of exhaustion and resolve, and took a deep breath before recounting the encounter with Chad since she left."Nothing, things just got too heated with Chad, a

    "What… hospital? Why is dad in the hospital?!" Scarlet's panicked shriek echoed in the hotel corridor, making Artis alert.Her complexion became progressively paler as Mia said something on the other end, and she looked at Artis with hesitant eyes while cutting the call with shaking hands."Dad… he had a heart attack, they have taken him to the hospital."No matter what his personal feelings regarding Mark Silverman were, Artis still recognized how important he was as Scarlet's dad, and he immediately stepped in to support her."Honey, don't worry. Let's go to the hospital right away, nothing will happen to Mark, okay? Come on, I'll take you to meet him…"___Fifteen minutes later, Scarlet and Artis were rushing towards her father's room. Artis, sensing the gravity of the situation, stayed close, his concern towards his wife evident. However, before they could enter, Hena emerged from the room, with her eyes bloodshot due to her tears. "Artis! Why is he here?" Hena's voice was sha

    "Hahahah, oh sure, why not! That's what I am totally willing to believe, because apparently, my own daughter thinks I'm a lunatic! Do you seriously expect me to believe that?"Hena, fueled by her determination to disapprove of Artis, turned her attention to him and sneered, "Let's see, Artis. Since my daughter is genuinely trying to convince me about your so called wealthy family, then why don't you empty out your pockets?""Excuse me? Did you just ask me to–""Come on, we don't have all day! Just empty your pockets, what don't you understand? I also want to see this proof to satisfy my curiosity! After all, which wealthy family will allow their son to step out without a single penny? But I bet you have nothing to show, do you?"Artis, maintaining his composure, stood silently, his expression revealing how much difficulty he was facing while controlling his outburst. Scarlet, caught between her husband and mother, attempted to diffuse the tension. "Mom, what is this behavior? Why ar

Although her cheek was already wet due to tears; this time, her tears were not because of her rage– rather, they had appeared because of the deep emotional wounds inflicted by her mother.For a few minutes, she was unable to say anything, processing the shock of the slal. But on the other hand, Artis, witnessing Scarlet's vulnerability, could no longer stand by as a silent spectator. His protective instincts kicked into gear, and he finally broke his silence to confront Hena;"Are you in control of your senses or not?! How can you just slap her like this–""Shut up!" Hena glared at him, while seething in anger."She is my daughter, and I can do as I please! Dammit–""Excuse me! You have exploited her enough as it is.

Her mom's sharp tone blared through the speakers as soon as she received the call;"Your dad is coming home tomorrow. And if you don't want the whole world to know what an ungrateful little weasel you are, you better come by around noon and sign the papers, the lawyers will be here too.""Mom, I won't –""No! I won't hear any of your excuses. Mark's health is already in bad condition, and I am telling you, Scarlet! If something happens to your dad just because you are being such a brat, I will never forgive you!"With this warning, Hena cut the call, shaking Scarlet from the core.

    As soon as the bell rang, Artis opened the door, only to find a dejected Scarlet stepping into their home. The concern in his eyes didn't go unnoticed, and he immediately moved towards her."Hey, what happened?" Artis asked, his voice laced with genuine worry. "You look upset."Scarlet attempted to dismiss his concern with a forced smile. "It's just a work- related thing, nothing major."Artis, however, wasn't easily convinced. He could read Scarlet well, and her attempts to downplay the situation only heightened his curiosity."Come on, honey. You know you can tell me anything." Artis insisted, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. "I hate seeing you like this."Despite Artis's caring nature, Scarlet remained guarded."No, I already told you. It's just some misunderstanding at work. I can handle it on my own."Artis's protective instincts started kicking in, as he made her sit on the couch. "Scarlet, we are a team. If something's bothering you, let me help."Scarlet, appreciating

    As Artis and Scarlet embarked on the journey home after visiting her father at the hospital, the car became a witness to the intimate conversation between them. After holding herself back for the entire day, Scarlet's curiosity about the undisclosed wealth of her family bubbled to the surface, and she gently questioned him regarding his family dynamics. Artis could also understand that she had received quite a shock after coming to know this information, and he patiently tried to answer her questions without giving away too much at the same time. However, their conversation took a more serious turn as Scarlet expressed a concern which she had tried to suppress ever since he had told her about the reason for leaving his family."Artis, you said that you had left them because you didn't agree with a marriage that they had arranged for you. What if… what if they are still resentful because of that? What if we go and meet them, and your parents don't approve of me?"Leaning back in the

The crowd shifted its anger towards Chad;"He fooled us all with his fake tears and displays of generosity!""I can't believe we fell for his lies, he manipulated us all!""People like him who bully others and then act like victims are a disgrace to the community!"The collective resentment built up as the crowd vented its frustration, realizing the extent of Chad's betrayal."Fool me once, shame on you!""We trusted him and demanded justice for him, and in return, he betrayed us!""I feel so cheated! We won't let you get away with this!""Kick him out! We don't want him here anymore!""Let's make sure everyone knows the truth abo

    CHAPTER 134 FRAUD COUPLE

    In the middle of this drama, a reporter also happened to arrive on the scene, with his full camera crew, making people think that the media had also been alerted about this scene because of the involvement of the heir of such a high profile family. But little did everyone know that this reporter had been tipped off by Chad himself, even before he had confronted Artis and Scarlet. He was fully prepared for both possibilities: if Artis agreed to give a statement, then this reporter would immediately rush to the scene and take his interview ; and if he refused, then too, Chad would get the chance to exploit this drama for a sensational news story. The atmosphere became charged with anticipation as the reporter, armed with a microphone, waded through the crowd to confront Artis and Scarlet.The reporter, with a cunning glint in his eye, addressed them;"Artis Hardy and Scarlet Silverman, the alleged fraud couple! What do you have to say about these damning accusations? Is it true that

You're nothing but opportunistic leeches!""I doubt that all that success of the Silverman family is also built on lies, wasn't it? They really think everyone is a fool!""This poor guy deserves better friends than you two!""Look at them, acting innocent now. Just own up to your shameful acts!""These people are nothing but social climbers! They pretend to be friends with someone until they have squeezed the last drop of profit from them, and then forget about the ones who supported them!"Scarlet's eyes were filled with tears now, because her attempts to explain were being drowned out by the overwhelming chorus of disapproval, again and again.
