"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

    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

    "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

    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

    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

    "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

    "Is there such a thing? The drug dealer on West Street? Isn’t that Hans Matthew’s man, Gerald Abraham?" Grandma guessed the identity of the other party directly.The biggest drug dealer on all of West Street was Gerald Abraham. That guy was notorious for reselling drugs. He had been caught several times for dealing in counterfeit drugs, but then he gradually cleaned up his act. Now he resells rare, genuine drugs at exorbitant prices and has reaped substantial profits from this trade.Old lady Jaymes despises this man. After all, his existence has caused significant losses to the interests of the Jaymes family. She never imagined that Veronica would have any contact with someone like him."It’s him. Gerald Abraham has been scheming against my Jaymes family and secretly manipulating our Jaymes channel. Veronica colluded with him. His intentions are despicable!" Teressa, little by little, seemed to have fully aligned herself with the Jaymes family."Is there some misunderstanding?" Heari

    They’ve truly lost all dignity. At such a young age, they harbor such ruthless hearts. The Jaymes family raised her for so long, and she still wants to sabotage them?"You spent the night at Residence 13 last night, didn’t you?" Old lady Jaymes asked, enunciating each word carefully."No, I didn’t. I went back to the dormitory. My roommate can vouch for me. Thomas Tudor escorted me back. He can confirm it too. The school has surveillance footage—if you don’t believe me, you can check it!" Veronica pressed her lips together tightly and defended herself."Thomas Tudor?""I know, Grandma. It must be Thomas Tudor. He must have put her up to it. Do you think we got rid of that weakling Thomas Tudor? Does he hate our Jaymes family now? It just so happens that Veronica listens to him and naturally becomes his pawn to retaliate against us!" Jessica Jaymes suddenly spoke up, as if struck by a revelation.Kill two birds with one stone. Jessica Jaymes was practically applauding her own clevernes

    Thinking that this was the person closest to her day and night, Veronica felt a chill run down her spine."Grandma, you have to believe me—this snake-hearted woman! She stole my project leader position and tried every means to frame me. She wants me to fall completely out of favor in this family. I don’t want to live!" Jessica burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably. She collapsed beside the leg of old Mirriam Jaymes, looking utterly pitiful.But now, with old lady Jaymes’ sharp intellect, how could she not piece together the whole story? From the moment Julian escorted Gerald to their Jaymes family, it was clear that things were far from simple. After Gerald presented those call records, even without listening to the recording, old lady Jaymes had already surmised most of it—eight or nine parts out of ten.Jessica was indeed desperate for the position of project leader, but old lady Jaymes hadn’t expected her to resort to such extreme measures."All right, I’ll judge the situation o

    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

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.

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.

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

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.

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 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.
