Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 19: Veronica appointed
"Mr Landon, please go and inform the Samuel family of the latest news personally again. However, the project leader is Veronica. Remember, it's Veronica, not Jessica."After Uncle Landon left, Old Miriam sat alone in deep thought. Does Graymer Group know Veronica? How is that possible? But why did they specifically request that the project leader must be Veronica before agreeing to continue the partnership?---Jessica was feeling miserable at home. Not even Yanna Blanca and Samuel Jaymes could console her.They understood the frustration—no one could endure such a devastating setback. Just a moment ago, she had been on the brink of immense wealth, practically stepping into millionaire status. Once the project was successfully completed, she would have even had the opportunity to share in the Jaymes Family’s fortune with Derek.And now? Everything had collapsed.Ding Dong!"Open the door! It's Uncle Landon—I have good news!" came a voice from outside."Uncle Landon? Good news?" The th
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 20: Veronica bullied by Jessica
Veronica didn’t know what had happened. When she left the dormitory and went downstairs to see her sister and Rex, she subconsciously felt uneasy, especially when Jessica approached with a murderous aura—it was terrifying."Come on, what trick did you use? How did you snatch the project leader position from me? I never knew you had such skills after all these years. Have you grown up so much that your wings have hardened?""Sister, I... I don’t know what you’re talking about," Veronica quickly shook her head."You don’t know what I’m talking about? Hah! I can’t believe you’re still pretending in front of me. You’re now the project leader of the Jaymes Family and Graymer Group—don’t you know that?" Jessica sneered, her tone dripping with sarcasm. This girl was a master at acting innocent. How could she not know about such a huge development?"I really don’t know. After I left home, I met Brother Thomas. He sent me to school, and then you called me. How could I possibly know about this?

Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 22: Thomas being humiliated again
After a while, a young man dressed in a foreign style entered the private room with a bag slung over his back. He spoke in a language unfamiliar to them and greeted the people inside. As he glanced around, he noticed that all nine seats were occupied—there was no room for an extra chair.Jessica and Jayson immediately noticed the awkwardness of the situation."Thomas, get up and give my brother Jack a seat!" Jayson suddenly shouted at Thomas, who was focused on his meal."The poor guy… It's like he hasn’t eaten in ten years. If no one stops him, he’ll probably clear the table," Brian sneered sarcastically."Thomas, you've eaten enough, haven't you? Give Jack your seat. If you're still hungry, you can eat while standing. I'll ask the waiter to bring you a chair," Jessica added.In such gatherings, "fishing" meant standing on the side and eating whatever was left, typically reserved for those who didn’t have a proper seat. Among peers, this was highly disrespectful. Thomas's expression
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 23: Throw him out
23The next day, near noon, Thomas called Veronica in advance.To tell the truth, Veronica didn’t want Thomas to spend money, but she didn’t have any money herself. All the money she got from the previous project was with her parents and sister.But Thomas insisted on meeting her, so Veronica came. They agreed to meet at the school gate."Yo? Isn’t this Thomas? Do you think that’s your fiancée over there? Your fiancée seems quite fine with others. Are you still calm?"As soon as Thomas arrived, his classmate Liam Sofyan walked over, his voice full of surprise and mockery.At university, Thomas had a wife, which made him the subject of much gossip. His classmates, and even students from other classes, knew that he was a so-called "door-to-door son-in-law"—a man living off a woman’s family. They often teased him about it, but Thomas never paid attention to their words.However, hearing Liam's remark, he couldn't help but glance toward the school gate.Jessica was dressed very sexily tod
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 24: Plot Twist
24"Of course! Do you still doubt that we have no spending power?" Rex Xavier was not happy to hear this. He deliberately pulled up his sleeve to reveal the Longines watch on his wrist.Seeing this, the waiter smiled and made an inviting gesture toward Thomas Tudor. "Sir, this restaurant caters to high-end customers. To maintain an exclusive dining atmosphere and a premium experience, we do not allow outsiders to linger. If your presence makes our guests uncomfortable, it is considered our dereliction of duty."This was clearly an eviction order.The waiter was observant. By merely comparing appearances, he knew which side he should serve.Customers were like gods. Rex, Jessica Jaymes, and the waiters were particularly satisfied with this arrangement."You’ve gone too far!"Veronica, who had just stepped out of the bathroom, witnessed the scene and angrily stepped forward to defend Thomas."Elder sister, how can you do this? Thomas didn’t offend you, so why do you always pick on him?
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 25: Kneel!
25Now, he could only try his best to make up for it. At the same time, he hoped that the latter adults would have enough money and would not hold a grudge against him for what had happened earlier."Jessica... or..." Rex Xavier said with a smile."No way! We have money. How much do we need? We'll pay it! But we will never give up our position!" Jessica Jaymes refused outright."Yes, how much more do we need? We'll pay for it!" Rex said coldly."It's not just about money. First, the location chosen by the guests cannot be changed at will. Second, the five premium card seats in the central area of the White Swan require ID verification for booking...""You came in and sat down directly. I assumed you knew the rules of our White Swan..." The waiter said, puzzled."ID verification? What kind of identification could those two possibly have? What a joke!" Jessica was furious. She stood up immediately, ready to storm over and confront Thomas Tudor, but the security personnel blocked her pat
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 26: Kneel down!
26"How dare you be fattening yourself? How dare you hide money? How dare you invite Thomas to dinner? Since when did you become so generous?" Magnolia gripped a belt in her hand, her face filled with anger."No… no, Thomas invited me. I don't have any money." Veronica’s legs went weak, her face as pale as paper. She was so terrified she could barely speak."Kneel down!" Yanna snapped, throwing the belt at Veronica. The impact left a red welt on her exposed arm, drawing blood."Thud!"Overwhelmed by the oppressive atmosphere, Veronica collapsed onto her knees at the doorway."Thomas invited you? You think I'm stupid? That man can barely feed himself! How could he possibly take you to White Swan for dinner, let alone book the Central No. 1 VIP table? You thought I wouldn’t find out? That meal cost at least $30,000!"Jessica added fuel to the fire, her words only making Yanna's fury worse.$30,000.That was how much this worthless girl spent?Yanna couldn’t hold back any longer. She gra

Chapter 43: Setting Veronica up
"As long as you cooperate with me fully, I don’t care about anything else. The Jaymes family is yours to handle!" Thomas smiled."Mr. Tudor, what’s the next step?" Julian stepped forward."It’s simple. Lock him up. Tomorrow, you drag him to the Jaymes family and make him spill the truth about Veronica. I want to see what Old Lady Jaymes’s stance is!" Thomas sneered.As he left Residence No. 13, Julian stayed behind to handle the fallout alone. West Street was Hans Matthew’s territory, and he wouldn’t let this slide easily. Though the Matthew family was insignificant to Thomas, Julian wasn’t in the same position. To Hans Matthew, Julian was just a small fry. If Hans decided to quietly take him out, Julian wouldn’t stand a chance.For now, Thomas prioritized Veronica’s situation and didn’t want to escalate things too far.Back at school, Veronica had been waiting for Thomas for a long time."Are you okay?" At the school gate, Veronica was so anxious she was on the verge of tears. It was
Chapter 42: "Your old girlfriend?"
Seeing the prize slip from his grasp, Gerald’s face went blank."Julian Vladimir! This is West Street! This is Brother Matthew’s territory! My territory! And I didn’t provoke you, did I? Why pick today of all days to stir up trouble with me? Are you serious?""Did that kid come to you?"Gerald Abraham pointed at Thomas. Did this trash actually have connections with Julian? Why didn’t Derek mention this?With a sharp smack, Julian Vladimir slapped him across the head."I’ve handled your West Street and East Street nonsense for too long but the useless thing you did is to crossed Mr. Tudor's way. I’m setting scores with you today. Your good days are over, I’m telling you!"In the past, Julian wouldn’t have dared cause trouble on West Street, but things were different now. Thomas intended to back him as the new kingpin of the area. Behind Thomas stood a giant like the Graymer Group. Julian Vladimir now had ten times the guts to turn against Hans Matthew. It all boiled down to one thing—w
Chapter 41: "Well, I’ll give you two choices too!"
Someone in the room immediately went out to guide Thomas and Veronica to the scene straight.Soon, Thomas opened the door and stepped inside. Gerald was surrounded by a row of younger brothers, exuding full momentum and pressure."Miss Jaymes, I went to your office this morning to talk. You didn’t agree. Now I’ve made you come to me in person, and you’ve agreed. I knew you were interested in me. Why should I bother with the effort?" Gerald’s face twisted into a mocking grin."If you hadn’t threatened me, how could I possibly come to discuss business with someone like you!" Veronica’s expression darkened."Ha ha ha, Miss Jaymes, you’ve got it wrong. You know who threatened you. I’m a serious businessman—I don’t do that sort of thing!" Gerald quickly waved his hand dismissively.All these schemes were orchestrated by Jessica and Derek Jaymes. In truth, Gerald hadn’t put in much effort himself. He hadn’t expected the younger generation of the Jaymes family to be so ruthless in their plot
Chapter 40: “My little lamb has finally arrived with her little man?”
"Everything is all right. She has promised to talk to Gerald Abraham face-to-face tonight. I threatened her with Thomas, but the girl naively agreed. Unexpectedly, Miss Ben let her remain chaste tonight, and the scandal spread all over the Charlottenberg District and X City!""Grandma doesn’t like Veronica originally. If this happens, she will be furious. Let’s add some oil and vinegar next to her. Isn’t that a good thing?" Jessica clapped her hands with a confident and happy smile."You’re right. Gerald has some influence on West Street, and after hearing about it this morning, he is very interested in that Veronica. He’s had this idea for a long time. I’m a little worn out. He immediately agreed to our plan. After all, he’s getting a big advantage for nothing. Veronica is fair-skinned, beautiful, and alluring, and Gerald himself is a hypocrite through and through!""When we get to West Street, it’s his territory. Veronica can’t escape. We’re ready for the follow-up work!" Derek, Ter
Chapter 39: But what's the plan with Veronica?
Julian was overjoyed when he heard this. Others didn’t know what Thomas Tudor could do and assumed he was just an orphan and a failure. However, Julian understood that this was the cruel role the boss of the Graymer Group had carefully crafted for him—to live and serve as entertainment. Though the other party’s remark seemed exaggerated, Julian was willing to take the risk.Besides, the Pearl Group alone was not an entity he could afford to cross.“Leave your contact information so I can let you know when to prepare your little brother!” Thomas knocked on the table.At that moment, he no longer displayed the submissive demeanor he’d shown within the Jaymes family. The three-year marriage hasn't lowered his pride despite all the humiliation; instead, it had made him more reserved and calculating.When leaving, Thomas didn’t allow Julian to see him off. As he reached the first floor, he spotted several familiar faces approaching.Justin, Xavier, and Brian.These three were Rex Xavier’s
Chapter 38: I Await your orders!
"I'm waiting for your news!"Thomas left the Pearl Group, worried about Veronica at the same time.The Jaymes family was truly heartless. Like a snake swallowing an elephant, their business was booming, yet they still wanted to exploit Veronica for more profit. Derek Jaymes dared to set his sights on Veronica—Thomas had made up his mind to make him regret it.Soon, news came from the Pearl Group. Fredrick had arranged everything and told Thomas to meet a powerful figure in Charlottenberg District’s underworld—a man named Julian Vladimir, the dominant force in the area.Thomas kept a low profile, instructing Fredrick not to fully reveal his identity. The situation was volatile, and exposure could lead to unnecessary trouble.He took a bus to G Building on Flower Street, Charlottenberg District. This area, also known as Entertainment Street, was notorious for its chaos. The streets were filled with local ruffians and hooligans, tattooed with dragons and phoenixes, puffing on small cigar
Chapter 37: Young Master, if you give the word...
"huh? Lose money? What do you mean by that?" Thomas was very curious."Our group recently received a new order and imported a special drug for lung cancer from abroad. The effect is surprisingly good, but the price is outrageous. The production cost is only 100 per box, but after distribution and logistics, our procurement cost is 5,000 per box. By the time we supply it to hospitals or partners, the price is 10,000. After multiple layers of price increases, the final price in the hands of patients is around 30,000 per box this the detailed calculation for how it will go but do you know?Guess what Miss Veronica said?" Fred asked with a sly smile which turn into a light chuckle before he took a breath, calming himself down and speak."Haha, she insisted that the patients couldn't afford such expensive medication and asked us to supply it to her at just 5,500 per box!""After factoring in channel tariffs, labor, and miscellaneous costs, our group wouldn't even make a profit. But since s
Chapter 36: Veronica feeling pressured
"If you get more money back in the company, you'll have to be greedy and take them. Otherwise, how do you think you'll get rich? If you really return the money, your grandmother might finally look at you differently, won't she? Also, Veronica, if we find out that you gave the money to Thomas again, don’t blame us for breaking your leg!" Yanna weighed the thorned cane in her hand.Veronica couldn't sleep until midnight. Her legs burned with pain. Even though she had treated them with alcohol and covered them with bandages, the agony wouldn't subside.She had always thought that Thomas would never bully her, that he would respect her but now it was her own family that did so.She didn't know what kind of dream she had that night, but when she woke up, her mouth was curled downward.Remembering the project meeting scheduled for today, she forced herself to get up early, washed up, and headed straight to the company office.The pricing for the new anti-cancer drug had yet to be finalized.
Chapter 35: Veronica in a complicated situation
"Just picking up trash. The family took pity on you and gave you some responsibility, and you think you're amazing? Skimming off the top and giving it to Thomas Tudor to waste, huh? That broke bastard can afford to take you to the Grande Golden Palace to watch the stars? How much did you give him?""Speak!" Jessica Jaymes grabbed the whip. Each strike left a fresh, bloody wound on Veronica’s legs, and soon, her calf was covered in blood.Tears welled in Veronica’s eyes, but she clenched her teeth and refused to make a sound."I didn’t give him money. I didn’t take anything, and I had no idea he booked the observatory to celebrate my birthday! I didn’t know…!""Shut the hell up! You didn’t know?" Jessica snarled, then kicked her in the stomach. Veronica stumbled backward, crashing against the door."That’s enough. Consider this a warning. From now on, any money you siphon off better go straight into our accounts, or next time, it won’t just be a beating!" Samuel said, glancing at the d
