*****At this moment, inside a VIP dining lounge within the restaurant, two assemblies of people were seated facing each other.On one side consisted of a middle-aged man, a middle-aged woman, and a young man with a self-assured expression on his face, while on the opposite side sat a middle-aged woman, an ordinary-looking lady, and two middle-aged men.One of these two men on the side of the table seemed prosperous and exuded an aura of arrogance, while the other middle-aged man appeared uneasy and anxious, portraying the aura of a low self-esteemed person, especially when he felt all the disdainful gazes directed at him in the booth.Before the two middle-aged men on this side of the long dining table entered, everyone was still all smiles and cheerfully discussing, but as soon as they arrived and the man with a modest appearance was spotted, the place fell into silence.The silence endured for several moments before finally, the middle-aged woman on the other side of the table spok
*****That evening, after Williams, Lucas, and Lucas’s father departed the restaurant in deep deep anger, Tenco started dialing the brother he hadn't contacted in years, trying to undo his mistakes.He rang his mobile phone repeatedly and without a single stop until the battery of his elder brother was depleted and the phone died.Furthermore, he drove his family of three to the residence where they knew Lucas's family resided back in the day. Regrettably for them, they were no longer living there, leaving Tenco and his family feeling completely helpless.This situation became even more challenging when Tenco's daughter wouldn't cease sobbing and holding her parents accountable for causing her Fiancée to terminate their engagement.Just like her father, who had persistently dialed his brother's number, Tenco's daughter also tried contacting her Fiancée. However, she was compelled to cease when her Fiancée blacklisted her number and her parent’s.After his daughter had cried for an ext
*****On that very night, following their departure from the restaurant where Lucas had invited him, Williams drove intending to pick up Dara from the hotel. However, the extraordinarily glamorous and meticulously made-up Dara he encountered enticed him to the extent that he was compelled to visit her secret sanctuary with his divine rod until they both released their heavenly essence.Little did the confused Williams know that Dara had only done what she did to get back at her family who had executed their plan.That's right, even though Williams remained oblivious to the situation, earlier that day, Sarah had gone to his restaurant and requested to switch places with Dara. The entire staff of the restaurant had been deeply and completely taken aback then, and Laura had to be called in to mediate the situation.The most amusing part was that Sarah had actually dared to act as if she were the boss in front of Laura, even claiming to be the owner's wife, while threatening that she wou
***** The following day, the entirety of Zed City was drenched completely in a jubilant ambiance, and everyone was unusually thrilled. Not only this, all the press, vloggers, bloggers, and news channels of the city had already filled the entire vicinity, covering all the ongoing events. Nearly all the inhabitants of the cities had risen early and tuned their televisions to their preferred channels. Expectedly, every single channel in the city was broadcasting the identical thing at present: the event occurring in Zed City that day. One might have assumed that what was unfolding in the city that day was related to the city as a whole or the country; however, that wasn’t the case. The city was suffused with a celebratory vibe merely because the patriarch of an A-ranked family was celebrating his birthday. That's right. Although the family to which this elderly man belonged wasn’t the only A-rank family in Zed city, and neither was the old man the first patriarch to be commemorat
*****"Damn! How did things easily spiral out of control to this extent?!"Greg was presently shouting frantically in his residence."Wasn’t the gathering something that was meant to be small with a few people invited? How could it have caused such a huge scene that would be witnessed across the city and beyond?"He continued yelling at the top of his lungs for a while before he eventually calmed down and started to breathe heavily, his hands clenched tightly into fists and his body began to emanate non-stop killing intent.Meanwhile, from the start, Ethan, the person who had come to report the current situation to Greg remained silent and nearly invisible at the side.He had stayed composed all along, starting from when Greg began to shout till he calmed down and began to exude a significant killing intent.He remained motionless like a statue.However, as soon as he sensed his master calming down considerably, Ethan finally spoke.“Master, I believe that the plan would still be succ
*****“Are you genuinely asking about my identity? Huh? Why don’t you come over to our place to ask the fellow there who brought the documents of this place to use as a wager?”This was what Williams heard as soon as he walked inside the house.He was immediately astounded by the disclosure he just heard, and it wasn’t only him, but Laura as well.Their mouths hung agape, but Williams soon returned to his senses and then glanced at the speaker. It was a man in a suit, whose age shouldn’t be above forty with his appearance. Behind the man stood two tough-looking men with tattoos all over their bodies.They emitted an air of intimidation, and from the look in their eyes, it was evident that they would resort to violence if whatever they were there to do didn't succeed.Done studying the intruders, Williams turned his gaze at the other group in the room, and he was immediately struck by a strong pity for them.Kneeling on the ground right now with their eyes crimson red probably from cr
***** There existed a highly frequented and popular gambling house in the lower echelon territory known as The Fortune's Palace. Although this gambling house was situated in lower-echelon territory, as previously mentioned, which means it couldn't rival those in the middle and upper-echelon territories, it was wealthy and powerful. In contrast to the numerous betting establishments in the other echelons, the lower echelons have only this one, which makes it extremely famous. Similar to every other betting establishment, this one was also akin to a hex upon the populace of the lower echelon residence. Once one ventured there and made even a single win, there was no turning back, and one would definitely lose more than what was won. If care is not taken, one might even become addicted to coming here to the point of losing every single thing one ever had. Perhaps it was that people hadn’t thought to this extent or that they’d thought it but just refused to accept the reality. This

Are you all right? Don’t tell me you’re having second thoughts already and want to back out.” The man in the formal attire, the captain was currently staring blankly at Williams with profound confusion and ridicule. While he didn’t comprehend why Williams was presently clenching his teeth angrily and balling his fists as if he had lost something immensely important, the man presumed it must be due to the gamble in which Williams was about to engage. He thought Williams was now regretful of his dec
