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
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 27: Diamond Card. Balance: Zero Dollars
"Quickly call the boss back and receive him personally. The big customer is here again!"With that, Zira quickly put down her work and called the boss."Thomas, we don’t have the money to wait. I'm not in a hurry. Let's come back in a few days…" When she arrived at the pawn area, Veronica's palms and back were sweating. She couldn't help slowing down her steps."Who told you I had no money?" Thomas looked back and saw the nervousness in Veronica's eyes. After thinking about it, he decided to reassure her. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a card. "What do you think this is? This is the Diamond Membership Card of Lierre Pavilion.""Diamond card?""You… you're a diamond member here?"Veronica's jaw nearly dropped."Of course. Can you relax now?" Thomas rolled his eyes."But… but how do you have this? I heard that Diamond Membership here requires 300,000 or 500,000 to qualify! That's an astronomical amount!" Although Veronica had never personally interacted with the membership se
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 28: You must be Mr. Tudor?
"Hahaha, this is hilarious. Where did you pick up that card? Do you really think an empty card can buy anything? I was wondering how you could afford a diamond card. Turns out, you just picked up a useless one. There's no money in it—how do you plan to pay?"Justin and his wife were both overjoyed. When they first saw Thomas just now, they were actually shocked, thinking they had provoked someone important. But who knew he was just a paper tiger? Showing off with an empty card—how ridiculous. This time, he was completely exposed."I forgot to top it up…!" Thomas scratched his head. The last time he bought the bronze bracelet, he had spent one million, leaving no balance on the card."Forgot to load it? Like you could even afford to!""Why haven't you kicked him out yet? Isn't it obvious? This guy is a broke fraud!" Mrs. Justin sneered, her voice laced with contempt."I… our boss is here. Let her handle this!" The servant, caught in the middle, hesitated. But just then, she happened to
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 29: Party Day
"You know you're poor, yet you still spend money indiscriminately? More than one million, huh? Why not buy a house instead? Property prices have skyrocketed over the past two years!" Veronica scolded, stamping her foot in frustration."Ah, let's talk about houses later. Life is long, and I have to take things one step at a time!" Then Thomas took two steps forward, grabbed her small hand, pulled out the jade bracelet, and placed it on her fair wrist. "In the entire Jaymes family, you're the only one who's truly been good to me. For three years, I've seen it all. Sometimes, I can't help but wonder… why you didn't grow up so quickly so I can choose you as my fiancée instead?""Silly you! Three years ago, I was only fifteen! Do you want to break the law?" Veronica blushed, smiling as she playfully scolded him.Looking at her smile, Thomas couldn't help but laugh. Yes, she was only fifteen back then. But this year… she was turning eighteen. In just three days, it would be her eighteenth b
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 30: Birthday Party Day
"What nonsense are you talking about, Dad? How could you be mistaken? Jayson told me beforehand that he would host my birthday party at the Grande Golden Palace and that it would be a big and mysterious surprise. Besides, April 24 isn’t my birthday. Which other girl in Charlottenberg District shares the same birthday as me?""If there was, wouldn’t we have heard about it years ago? Wouldn’t I already know?" Jessica Jaymes pursed her lips, her father’s words making her unhappy—like he was pouring cold water on her excitement.Why was Jayson’s grand surprise being questioned? There weren’t many coincidences in this world. The Grande Golden Palace and April 24—who else could the main character of this event be besides her?"Well, as it happens, the 24th is also Veronica’s birthday. She’s just turning 18. It wouldn’t be right to favor one over the other. How about we arrange a separate birthday meal for her?" Samuel Watson asked, looking at his wife and daughter."A separate birthday meal
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 31: Confusion on who rent the place
31Thomas arrived early at the Grande Golden Palace. After making all the necessary preparations, he waited anxiously for a long time. However, instead of waiting for Veronica, he ended up waiting for Jessica.Jessica looked stunning today. She wore a low-cut mermaid dress, high-heeled shoes with diamond-encrusted uppers, and carried a luxurious Chanel bag. Walking behind her were her roommates, Maoza and Tiara.Though Jessica was the main attraction today, Maoza and Tiara had also dressed up lavishly, basking in the admiration and envy of the crowd. They strutted into the Grande Golden Palace like princesses, their vanity greatly satisfied by the attention.Admiring the grand spectacle, Maoza couldn't help but sigh in awe."Jessica, Rex is so good to you! He actually booked the entire Grande Golden Palace for your birthday. If I had a boyfriend like Rex, I'd wake up smiling every single day!"Jessica pursed her red lips in satisfaction, feeling content. The best decision she ever mad
Once Broken, Now Unstoppable Chapter 32: "Actually, I’m the one who booked the Grande Golden Palace."
32Rex wanted to say something more, but Jessica didn’t give him a chance at all and directly took his arm."Rex, let's go in quickly. I can't wait to get to the star-viewing platform and see Serra Larissa sing!""Okay… okay!"Rex responded somewhat stiffly. At this moment, telling the truth was out of the question.After all, Jessica had brought so many friends. If he admitted the truth now, Jessica's pride would take a hit, and he'd end up humiliated as well.His only choice was to play dumb and find a way to sneak into the observatory once inside.As they were about to go in, a figure suddenly stepped into their line of sight and appeared in front of everyone.It was Veronica."Thomas, sis, you’re all here!" Seeing Thomas and Jessica, Veronica greeted them somewhat nervously.Thomas smiled. "Veronica, you finally made it. I've been waiting for you. Let’s go inside!""Go in? Go where?" Before Veronica could respond, Jessica interjected with a sharp tone."I mean, Thomas, do you have

33Manager Kim frowned and stopped in front."Please calm down, Miss Jaymes!""I'm calm, now get lost for me!" Jessica snapped, her anger spilling over in foul language. "We were the ones who booked the Grande Golden Palace! So why the hell are these two fools allowed in?!""Miss Jaymes, who told you that you booked the Grande Golden Palace?" Manager Kim's face remained expressionless."Rex!" Jessica screamed.Rex Xavier trembled and stepped forward, his face drained of all color."Rex, are you dumb?!" Jessica yelled angrily. "Tell him right now that you're the one who actually booked the Grande Golden Palace!""Jessica, actually...""Actually what? Spit it out!""In truth... I didn’t book the Grande Golden Palace." Rex gritted his teeth and forced the words out. "The only surprise I prepared for you was a six-carat diamond ring."Boom!Jessica stood there, frozen, her mind blank.A moment later, she erupted in a hysterical scream. "Rex, stop joking! This isn't funny!""Jessica, I'm n

Chapter 90: Ursus joined the team.
Baldie Lowe stared at the man seated across from him in the dimly lit backroom of a nondescript San Francisco bar. The faint hum of the city’s nightlife filtered through the walls, but in here, the air was thick with tension. Baldie, a hulking figure with a shaved head and a reputation for ruthless deals in the city’s underground, felt his pulse quicken. The man before him—Thomas Tudor, known to most as a low-profile entrepreneur who’d married into a modest clan family and is useless and even got divorce and done dirty by his wife—was not what he seemed. “You’re sharper than you look, Lowe,” Thomas said, leaning back in his chair, his voice calm but laced with authority. His dark modest shirt was tailored but understated, a deliberate choice to avoid flaunting the wealth. “You must have thousands of questions right now.”Baldie’s throat tightened. He nodded, unable to speak. The Tudor family was a colossus—old money, global reach, with investments spanning tech, real estate, and shad
Chapter 89: Tempering Justice with Mercy
Chapter 89: Tempering Justice with Mercy Karen Blanca walked up to her sister and Veronica and gave a respectful bow. “Sister and niece, I'm greeting you as your younger sister and aunt.”Yanna Blanca was the Blanca family's eldest daughter and used to hold a significant position within the family. Later on, she married Samuel Jaymes.Because Samuel Jaymes was looked down upon by the Jaymes family, the Blanca family started looking down on Yanna Blanca too.Then, Thomas Tudor married into their family. This caused everyone to look down on her even more until he divorced Jessica.But now, Yanna Blanca was being treated as the eldest sister once again. She was overwhelmed with emotions.But the moment Karen Blanca's family left, Yanna Blanca's heart started aching for that margin of money.She started to blame Thomas Tudor. “Why did you throw that punch? Look, because of that punch, our family lost 30,000 dollars for no good reason.”Veronica quickly stood up for Thomas Tudor. “Mom, I'
Chapter 88: Fired
Chapter 88: Fired"Ms. Carter, right? One billion—I want to withdraw it right now. If you don't have enough cash here, you'd better call your superiors and get them to send it over now. I want cash." Thomas Tudor placed his Peregrine card in Ms. Carter's hand.In an instant, Ms. Carter was on the verge of tears. A billion dollars. It's true that a Peregrine card holder can choose to withdraw any amount at any branch, but I don't want that branch to be my branch. This is because I would have to take full responsibility for whatever happened in that case. Perhaps they won't just fire me for losing this Peregrine card holder. In fact, they might even kill me. I would be blacklisted from the finance industry from then on.In fact, Ms. Carter was even worried that they might simply kill her because of their fear of Thomas Tudor.Slap!Ms. Carter landed a slap on the manager's face. "Scram! You're fired! Get lost! Don't you dare to show up here again!"The branch head's furious roar attract
Chapter 87: I Want to Withdraw One Billion Dollars
Chapter 87: I Want to Withdraw One Billion DollarsUpon reaching the bank, Thomas Tudor spotted the long lines at the counter. Hence, he headed for the ATM.However, he could only withdraw 700 dollars at once.As he withdrew his money, he grumbled about how troublesome this whole process was.Finally, he managed to withdraw 7,000 dollars after ten withdrawals.But as he tried to repeat the same process for the eleventh time, he could no longer do so.'Er…' Thomas Tudor was confused. 'What bad luck! Is the machine down? Or is there no more money in the machine?'“Sir, can you come over and take a look at this machine? Is something wrong?” Even after analyzing the machine for a while, he still had no idea what was wrong. As such, he looked for the manager.The manager seemed to have nothing to do as he sat there, munching on some nuts.He was annoyed that Thomas Tudor had called him over. Nonetheless, he had no choice but to go over since a customer had called for him.After several tes
Chapter 86: You're in no place to speak
Chapter 86: You're in no place to speakYanna Blanca tried to diffuse the situation, but her sister wasn't buying it. “An emergency? Do you mean that we can punch others during emergencies? Do you mean that it would've been fine if he killed my son since it was an emergency? Your family has to take responsibility for this. Your family will have to pay for Weston's medical fees.”Nonetheless, Yanna Blanca was reluctant to ruin her relationship with her sister. “How much do you want?”“30,000.” However, it seemed like Yanna Blanca had underestimated just how shameless her sister was.She asked for 30,000 dollars! Yanna Blanca's face turned ghostly pale.Even Samuel Jaymes pointed at Karen. “You—you! This woman…”“What’s wrong? Do you mean that you're not going to give us the money after hitting my son? Fine, I’ll go to the Pearl Group and ask the Grandma of the Jaymes family for money.”Of course, Karen was all too clear that her family , especially due to Watson, wasn't well-liked by t

Chapter 85: Mocking Him“Oh, oh. Right, I remember. Veronica's sister being Jessica Right, you're Thomas Tudor. Come take a look, everyone; he's a celebrity in this small town.” Baldie Lowe pointed at Thomas Tudor and said to his subordinates, “Take a good look. He's even more famous than your Brother Baldie in San Francisco. He's the useless matrilocal son-in-law of the Jaymes family, Thomas Tudor.”In an instant, all the muscular men in the room were bent over in laughter.Thomas Tudor shrugged indifferently. “If you have nothing else, you can bring him out. Of course, those are his parents. If you want to bring them along too, you're welcome to do so. However, this is our room. Don't blame me for getting rough if you don't leave.”Pfft!Baldie Lowe chuckled.His subordinates followed suit. They all looked at Thomas Tudor as though they were looking at a joke.“How bold of you to say that you'll get rough with us. Come on; let's see what you've got.”Just then, Weston Shaw took adva

Chapter 84: ThiefSlap!A resounding slap landed on Karen son's face, it was so powerful he didn't know who slapped him as he felt the world spin and he stumbled back to his butt.Veronica Blanca wanted to get up, but Thomas Tudor stopped her. In the end, she sat back down.“I'll fight it out with you since you dare to step on my son!” Karen James was an unreasonable person to begin with. Now that someone was stepping on her son, she rushed forward without any thought.But another muscular man pushed her back into her seat.Everyone froze.“Boss, what did my son do? How did he offend you guys?” Larry Shaw was still sober and not drunk. As such, he stood up, wanting to learn about what had happened.The bald man slammed a wallet onto the table. “Your son stole my wallet. How do you think I should handle this?”“My son stole your wallet?” Larry Shaw was dumbfounded.“Dad, don't listen to their nonsense. I was in the toilet, and the wallet was on the basin. Finders keepers, so I took it.

Chapter 83: Gangs after himLarry Shaw had wanted to defend his son, but with hard evidence in front of him, there was nothing else he could say. “That… Boss, it's true that my son was wrong, but you said that you know the Tudor family. We're from the Tudor family! We'll apologize to you. Why don't you sit down and have a meal with us? Let's put this behind us. What do you think about that?”The bald man sneered.All his subordinates followed suit. They all stared at Larry Shaw as though he was a fool.“Put this behind us? And you even dare to mention the Jaymes family? Why don't you ask Derek Jaymes whether he dares to say such a thing to me!”'The Jaymes family is no more than a second-tier family in San Francisco.'Thomas Tudor had already recognized the bald man—Baldie Lowe from the Lowe family. Although it wasn't a top-tier family, the Lowe family was still more renowned and powerful than the Jaymes family.“I won't beat around the bush. I had 30,000 dollars in this wallet, so ei

Chapter 82: Ordering Expensive MealsBut seeing that Karen James wasn't one to be trifled with, she eventually gave up that thought.“This, this, that, and that. We'll have five kilograms of each.”Adding everything together, Karen James had ordered more than a dozen different types of seafood. She then left while complaining. “Sigh, a four-star hotel is a four-star hotel. It's nothing like a five-star hotel; their seafood selection is so small.”The waitress watched Karen James walk away, resisting the urge to punch the latter.Within the private room.Veronica quickly ordered a few dishes.But by the time the waitress served the dishes, Karen James's family still hadn't arrived yet.“Don't tell me that they left.” Yanna Blanca was a little worried. After all, it was her younger sister that they were talking about. If my sister really has left, that will be a little embarrassing for me.“So be it. Let's just eat.” Veronica’s mood wasn't the slightest bit affected by Karen James's fam
