****”At the same time, on the road right now, Ethan’s mother wouldn’t cease crying as she gazed at her pitiful-looking son and husband who were beside herself.Her husband hadn’t regained consciousness from fainting earlier, and her son, he appeared like someone who had lost his spirit right now.“It was that bastard, Williams’ fault! It was his fault! Boohoo! Why hadn’t I given him poison back then and let him perish?! Why didn’t I bother dispatching an assassin after him after he was chased away?!! Boohoo!!”She continued bawling intensely and pitifully, however, hearing her expressions of sorrow would only cause discomfort to anyone listening, or so did the driver steering the car right now feel.He couldn’t help but swallow hard while gripping the steering wheel tightly, his hands and body already covered in sweat despite the full air conditioner blowing in the car.Suddenly, as he was too nervous, he collided with a pothole, causing the car to shake slightly.“BASTARD!!! ARE YOU
*****As Williams entered the lavishly adorned and stunning hall, everyone was already showering the elderly man with various birthday greetings and blessings.It was only Grace and the bodyguard in Chinese garment, who stood behind the smiling celebrant at the forefront of the hall facing the crowd, and Greg who stood assertively at the forefront of the assembly who noticed him.Winking playfully at Grace, deliberately to infuriate Greg, which he successfully did, Williams eventually moved to a corner in the hall and took his seat, then he began to admire the artistry done to the hall.By the time he finished, everyone was still busy flattering the elderly man. Helplessly, Williams could only gaze and listen to what was being expressed.Before long, he was bored helplessly but could do nothing.It wasn’t until after an eternity did the assembly eventually finished greeting the elderly man while introducing themselves, something Williams found as nothing but insincerity; then it was
*****Currently, Greg was seething intensely at a side, and the look he was giving Williams at this moment was brimming with killing intent.He despised Williams so much with all his fervor and everything he possessed.‘This stupid bastard, I would have already obtained what I want by now if not for him! How dare he!!’If only glares alone could kill, Williams would have already perished over and over again by now, but unfortunately, Williams was presently acting as though he had no inkling that someone, or rather, two individuals were glaring at him.The first individual was, of course, Greg, as already mentioned, but the second individual was a stunning and graceful-looking goddess.Her eyes had never shifted away from Williams since she arrived with her grandfather, but Williams continued disregarding her and acted as though he couldn't sense her presence.Williams was currently beside the two elderly gentlemen, the leader of the Harrison family and the old man Pu who had invited h
***** “Sir, don’t worry. Didn’t Grace still have me, I promise with everything I am and have that I would help out with this!” Everyone, “_” ‘Who is this person, and what does he think he possesses to make such a huge promise?’ They stared blankly at Greg as though he was a fool. It was only Williams and Grace who quickly comprehended what was happening, and then Grace’s expression went several times paler than it already was. She began to shiver intensely, but she still looked hopefully at her grandfather. However… she lost all expectation the next moment, as her grandfather was currently looking appreciatively at Greg. “This Bastard!” Williams cursed Greg with his teeth clenched when he saw the playful smile the other party was giving him when the old man looked in Grace’s direction. Williams was so furious that he couldn’t help but clench his fist hysterically, wishing to punch off the stupid grin on Greg and Grace’s uncle’s faces. Just at this moment, the old man gazed at
*****Everyone's eyes widened with shock as they stared open-mouthed as the bullet rushed toward William.It was as though time had suddenly frozen in the hall, and right now, everyone's first thought was to escape from the scene, fearing that the bullet might mistakenly rush at them. However, since in reality, the speed of the bullet was so fast beyond what eyes could monitor, everything happened in the blink of an eye, and then the place became utterly quiet.All eyes suddenly turned in Williams’ direction, gazing blankly at him with their mouths still wide open and waiting for him to fall.Even Sophia, who had been staring hatefully and disdainfully at Williams since she got there couldn't help but stare dumbly at him, her face becoming pale. It was only Grace who had covered her mouth right now while shivering slowly. She appeared utterly terrified, as though she had just witnessed her greatest nightmare.The silence was so profound that the sound of everybody's disorganized brea
*****“You!”The Aged master of the Harrison Family suddenly pointed at Stones, his eyes flashing with so much coldness that caused everybody around him to start shivering.“For this deed you have committed, firing a shot at someone who I’ve just declared to be a friend of my Harrison family, without any fear for me! You have hereby been disowned by the Harrison family. Not only that, from now on, your presence must not be sighted anywhere close to Zed City again, otherwise, don’t blame me for what would happen to you.”Feeling the deep concealed anger that seemed to have the power of destroying heaven and earth in the icy voice of the old man, everybody swallowed hard, and then some people gazed pitifully at Stones, who had already turned utterly pale.Although none of them was familiar with the old man at all, even they realized that he wasn’t joking at all.Stones couldn’t react.With his countenance as pale as a sheet of paper, he gazed soullessly at his father who had just finishe

***** “Which bastard was it?!” Williams suddenly bellowed. “Was it that scoundrel, Greg, or that stupid uncle and his family?!!!” Following this, Williams became so frustrated and furious to the extent that he couldn't help but chuckle coldly in the car. “You all should blame your unfortunate lives for daring to choose this time to confront me.” Uttering this with gritted teeth, Williams pushed open his wing door and stepped out. He then gazed at his front, which was currently filled with men in casual wear, glaring coldly at him. Blocking the road with their cars, they were more than forty men, appearing very formidable—several times more than Marcus. Maybe Williams would have already detected that something was amiss before arriving, given the deserted highway. However, he had been so engrossed in the system's announcement at that moment that he remained oblivious to his surroundings. “Who sent you guys?!” With his voice filled to the brim with endless coldness and concealed
