"What? Alex blocked Jessica?" Henry exclaimed, incredulous."Then use another number to call.""I've tried, still doesn't work."Henry raised his voice:"Then it's not like he's blocking anyone; he's already changed his number; Jessica will probably know his new number. Let's make her talk."Hanging up, Henry looked again at the person in front of him, the mayor.o0oMrs. Andrew, after hanging up the phone, immediately went to Jessica's room; she knocked on the door and immediately received a reply from Jessica from inside."Let me go; what do you want? Are you crazy!?""Tell me Alex's phone number, and I'll let you go."Mrs. Andrew thought this intimidation would work, but unexpectedly Jessica shouted at her:"Don't know. But why drag Alex into this?"Jessica began to feel the gravity of the matter. She stood up and headed for the door."What crazy thing do you want to do again? Please forgive everyone, okay? I beg you always. Please stop."Jessica's attitude changed from harsh to he
Very cruel indeed!"Henry…" Alex mumbled the name under his breath and memorized it, then replied to the mayor:"Okay, thank you for this message.""Yes, Yes." After saying that, the mayor quickly hung up the phone. And Alex returned to his desk, picked up the phone, and dialed number one, calling Jowley."Hello, come to my office immediately.""Yes."Less than five minutes later, a knock was on the door from outside Alex's office. He stated:"Come in."Jowley entered, stoutly walking in front of Alex and bowing:"Hello, President. Do you have something to entrust?"Alex interlaced his ears, his face becoming heavier than ever:"I just received information tonight that Kimberlys people will destroy and burn the building materials our corporation has left in the slums. And I need you to confirm this information for me."Hearing Alex say that Jowley's face became more severe than ever. He listened silently to Alex's instructions:"Now you and some others go to the slums to scout the sit
In the distance, where the fire exploded, a reasonably long distance away, it was a residential area, then suddenly burst into flames, accompanied by a highly pitiful scream."Damned!" Alex mumbled, then, without thinking much, rushed towards it. Initially, he had calculated so carefully but still needed to correct things."Chairperson!""Alex!"Jowley, Isabel, and the people in the slums cried out and wanted to chase him but were immediately stopped by the security staff of the Forest Corporation.Then a few bodyguards in protective gear and the fire brigade also rushed towards that house.Alex, Fast, and Furious ran towards the houses, crying and screaming still coming from there. When he arrived, he saw a miserable woman holding a baby or two kneeling outside and crying, crying, and shouting.Alex went there and hurriedly asked:"How many people are inside right now?""Two people, my mother-in-law, and my youngest child, he is only five years old." The woman spoke in sobs; the two
"Miss Potts wanted to come and thank you, but I told you that you are now recovering from illness, unable to receive many people, and she also needs to take care of her family, so I stopped her."Miss Potts that Tom spoke of must have been the woman whose house was on fire that Alex had helped save her mother-in-law and son."Um, how are the son and her mother?""They suffered from smoke inhalation and 20% burns and are now in the ICU because the baby's lungs are also greatly affected.""Do they have Health insurance?""Yes." Tom Holland nodded."Then I will pay for the rest of the medical expenses."Alex said. And when the person opposite him heard that, he was shocked."You want to pay them?""Yes, because the cause of this fire is us anyway."Alex thinks it's probably because his men needed to scout the situation more carefully, leaving out explosives and incendiaries. Or the Kimberlys Corporation did something he didn't know about. But in general, the cause of this incident was al
"Oh really."Jack got up, and then Mrs. Andrew turned around and was about to go upstairs. But now she also has butterflies in her stomach; if she goes upstairs, she will have to open Jessica's room, and she fears Jack will ask her to lock Jessica's door again. But that was not the most troublesome thing because if Jessica opened the door now, she would scream and rush out; until then, everything would not be hidden anymore.Mrs. Andrew was walking while thinking, when at this moment, Jack suddenly said:"If you tell me the truth, I won't pursue this matter anymore; I will even help you take care of Grandma's place. You know, Grandma always trusts unconditionally."This sentence made Mrs. Andrew's footsteps stop, her hands constantly rubbing against each other. In her mind, at this moment, she always scolded Jack for being a pig. She also doesn't know what Jack wants; does he want to use this to threaten her?So Mrs. Andrew turned around and smiled and said:"What are you talking about
"It really is disgusting!" Henry was not satisfied with the images provided by the media. He turned off the iPad, then turned to Loki and said:"How much damage do they estimate? Is there a specific number yet?""According to my previous field survey, it was about five hundred million USD, but the actual amount is unknown. Because the destructive power of dynamite and fire can also have errors, it can't be what we calculate on paper."Loki's answer made Henry extremely impatient; he wanted to know immediately. Eager, Henry opened those rare photos in his heart again as if he felt something was wrong.At this time, the mayor on the opposite side saw Henry splitting his hair, afraid that he would find something; he spoke to distract Henry."General manager, what do we do next? Do you have any new plans yet? Oh yeah, how's the casino going? Has Mrs. Andrew won the scheme?"When it comes to the casino, Henry is upset again; he hasn't answered Mrs. Andrew's phone for a few days; I don't kn
"Stop it, Alex; I don't want to listen anymore. Then you will also lose and keep your first project from failing, lose the shareholders' trust, and you will not be able to sit in this position. Didn't what happened last night wake you up? It's definitely because those damn slum beggars did it. How much did we lose from that? Please stop before it's too late!"Still the same, a leopard can't change its spots. Alex was starting to feel impatient."If you don't want to hear it, why are you making me talk? You can listen to this through my assistant; through your assistant, you need to open up, and many people are willing to tell you. Dad, your personality is still the same; you are conservative and patriarchal and want everyone to do as you, please. You don't want anyone to be free, you always consider yourself a lord, and everyone is working for you, serving you. But no, I'm your child. I am not a slave; I am not your employee or assistant. And now I'm young, you know, it's right for yo
After exiting Mrs. Locke's garden, Jack was thrilled to bits; he took out his phone, went to his contacts, and dialed the number that had the name "Candy" on it with lots of hearts on the back.Less than a minute later, from the other side came a sweet female voice."Hello, darling, call me early today.""Good morning, bae, wish you a good morning, sweet, cool, everything goes smoothly, no frustration, no worries, wherever you go, the aura will come, it's hot, but it doesn't fall sweat, make-up doesn't get moldy, skin doesn't shed oil, eyebrows don't drift, eyeliner doesn't drift, eyelashes stick firmly, go shopping for discounted items, just sit around and play without work..."Jack was talking about a blue streak when from the other side, that girl had lost her patience; her voice was no longer as sweet as before."Okay, if you have something to say, say it. My head hurts."At this time, Jack revealed his true face; he smiled flatly, then said:"It's just… I'm out of money…"Just a
