"Are you all dumb! Can't you hear my question! Doesn't it deserve an answer?" Emilio yelled out yet he got no answer.

He thereafter narrowed his eyes as he looked at them threateningly. “I want to hear the truth! If I find out someone is lying to me, you’ll be kicked out of the family immediately!”

Listening to this, everyone panicked. But after racking their brains for a long time, they still couldn’t think of an instance where they had offended someone.

After about an hour that the whole family had arrived, Emilio suddenly noticed that someone was absent.

“Where’s Micheal? Wasn’t he informed of the meeting?” Emilio questioned while looking at Esteban with displeasure.

Esteban hurriedly said, “I was about to report to you. But since everyone is gathered here for the meeting, I can’t say it out loud…”

Emilio’s face turned gloomy. “Speak. We’re all family, so there’s nothing you have to hide.”

Esteban glanced around at the crowd listening attentively and sighed. “Micheal is in the hosp

    "Dad! You slapped me! Why?" Sam's father was dumbfounded by the sudden slap, and it took him a long time to react. He clamped his hand against his mouth and then, he exclaimed, “Dad, why did you hit me?! I am a victim for crying out loud! That riff raff almost made me lose my life. You are supposed to support me instead of hitting me."Emilio however scoffed and said coldly, “Hit you? I really wish I could strangle you to death! You son of a bitch, tell me, what have you done out there?! You know nothing more than causing trouble, then you end up bringing all back to me…" he paused before he continued. "You could remain silent if you have a death wish but if you do not, then start talking now!"Mr Solano was naturally displeased. “What could I have done dad? I did nothing at all. You need to trust me. I would never in my life try to disappoint you." "This isn't your first, so keep talking right now, let me know where you pulled the wrong button before you end up wrecking all that I e

    The next morning, Brenda’s eyelashes moved slightly, and she, who had slept through the entire night, slowly opened her eyes.However, she didn’t wake up to the warm bedroom she was familiar with but a luxuriously decorated room completely new to her.Brenda’s heart dropped. The last image she saw before losing her consciousness was the scene of her discussing the cooperation with Micheal Solano of Avery Media last night. After which, she downed a glass of champagne and then… she blacked out."Have I…no ooo…." Her eyes dropped to the duvet, she didn't care to reason about something else before she burst out.At that point, her expression changed drastically, and she screamed with her head in her hands!The door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a figure hurriedly rushed in. “Brenda, what’s wrong?”Hearing Derek’s familiar voice, tears welled up in Brenda’s eyes, and she immediately jumped into his arms. She hugged him tightly and burst into tears.Derek hurriedly embraced Bren

    When Brenda heard what Derek said, her face was full of shock. All of a sudden, Brenda was flustered. She only raised her head to say to Derek apologetically after a long while, “I… I am sorry to disappoint you Derek, but honestly speaking, I really don't feel attached to you anymore." she saw his gaze fall but then she placed her palm on his and said. "For now Derek, I wish to achieve so many things, before you know! Getting hooked on anyone again."She noticed his expression was still pale and then she said again. "Back then, we were so young and deeply in love, Derek. I don't think we knew where we were going yet. But it's different now, who knows if fate chooses that we end up together then we would."Derek shook his head and said softly, “It’s okay. It’s my business that I like you. You don’t need to feel pressured. Just treat me as an ordinary friend. But I'm not forcing you to fall in love with me at all, don't get me wrong."At Derek’s kind and understanding words, Brenda wa

    Morphie really deserved to be slapped for smearing her!After being slapped, Morphie looked at Brenda in disbelief, he was still stunned and had had no idea that in his wildest dream, his sister would ever get to him not to talk of slapping him. But there he was holding tight to his cheek."What the fuck!" he stuck his hand back to his cheek, still feeling the intensity coming from it. On the other way round, Brenda was in no way guilty at all.Unless, she also was a bit surprised on how she had managed to do that. But then she had no regrets whatsoever.For several years, she had always been on the receiving side, she had been the victim, and he had gotten so used to bullying her just because she was always against him and Mrs Reid. However she never thought that she would dare to slap him! However, he was in no placa going to take the insult. In a twinkle he suddenly yelled out. "Fuck! You are crazy! And have no respect." "Have you forgotten your place? You belong to the slums,

    As soon as Mrs Reid saw Brenda and Derek enter, she immediately turned gloomy.“If you have anything to say, hurry up and say it. Leave immediately after you finish,” Mrs Reid said coldly without hiding the disdain she had for them.Although Brenda had already prepared herself for this, she still felt rather uncomfortable.She had always respected Mrs Reid even though they had their differences, but then she was hoping that she would have really changed in the last few days.As thought, she was cold and indifferent toward her as though they were strangers, and of course, even more distant than strangers.Bearing with the unhappiness, she courageously said. "Mrs Reid, do you have any knowledge that your son was willing to talk me into signing an agreement with Avery Media in the name of Reid group?"Mrs Reid was shocked to hear her words. Her tongue was stuck to her throat. Truly she never knew about it, but then in the faze of supporting her loved son, she thought about something. “Th

    Derek was angered, and at the same time, he was sorry for Brenda. Each time, she felt pitiable for her so called family, she ended up on the receiving end while they behaved like she actually meant nothing to them."You are a bastard. If that's what you wish to know so you can get your freaking cursed hands away from this family. Your dad got you for a mistress, and I had to take you in like my child. No wonder you are so different from Morphie. He is my child but you! You are a bastard." Those words kept coming back into her head and she couldn't help it each time. She had to hold tight to her brain like she was freezing out. At this point, Derek knew all he had to do was to comfort her. She already had enough insults from her so-called family.“Forget it, Brenda. You’ve already done enough for them. They just don’t know any better. From now on, regardless of their outcome, it’s all because of their own choices,” Derek said."Yes Brenda, just get the hell out of here with your pover

    Derek growled within himself, just that one voice which could stop him had spoken again, and he dared not go against it. Brenda's voice was the only one capable of stopping him from anything she intended doing. And now that she had once again spoken up, he had no choice but to obey.Since Brenda had spoken up, Derek would naturally give in on her account.Besides, he didn’t necessarily need the Solano family to disappear completely from Mrs Reid, all he needed was them to completely disappear from the city. Any deal they had with the Solanos was none of his concern as long as they never bothered him and his wife.Derek said coldly, “If not for my wife’s kindhearted nature, I definitely wouldn’t have spared your family. However, you must remember that if you provoke my family and me or commit those heinous acts again, your family can just wait to perish!”Esteban bowed repeatedly and thanked him. “Thank you for your magnanimity. We will remember your kindness!”Derek looked at Esteba

    With those eyes of cruelty, it was sure that Esteban was really up to something. On the other hand, at the Solano's family’s main residence, Emilio was completely worried.Everything that had happened at that time, ranging from the company's seized to his sick son in the hospital. All of this was actually taking a toll on him, but he couldn't help it.He paced forth and back in the room, while he seemed to be waiting for either a phone call or a text message.Suddenly, after about half an hour, the phone beside him chimed loud enough.The anxiety that had obviously beclouded him didn't give him the opportunity to waste a single time before he grabbed the phone from where it lay.“How is it?” Emilio asked impatiently as soon as the call connected.“Good news! Apart from the brothel, and the entertainment joints ordered to cease operations permanently, Avery media is allowed to resume operations. However, we have to pay a large fine…” said a messenger on the other end of the line.“That

The slightest movement made him feel intense pain in his stomach.For the past few decades of his life, Perry had never been beaten up like this or suffered such a huge loss before!If Derek could still leave Perry ’s turf under the siege of so many bodyguards, Perry would be thoroughly embarrassed!The ten-odd bodyguards and Perry ’s personal bodyguard acknowledged and immediately surrounded Derek.Derek smiled coldly and raised his leg to kick the bald bodyguard who rushed in front of him, sending him flying!“Ah!” The bald bodyguard let out a miserable cry as his body was propelled upward be

    “No!” Perry refused resolutely. “This isn’t a small business. We’ve monopolised it in Dominican! If I recommend some clients to you, won’t I be giving my family a competitor for no reason?”Derek shook his head. “I naturally won’t run this business in Dominican and become your competitor.”After giving it some thought, Perry still didn’t believe Derek. “Your roots are all in Dominican. Why should I believe that you would leave this place and go elsewhere to run this business.”Derek shrugged. “It’s up to you to believe me or not. Mr. Perry, please get your facts right. I’m doing you a favour by asking you to recommend clients to me. To put it bluntly, the Bathhouse is in my hands now, and so are those beautiful women. Even if I take over the business directly now, what can you do for me?”Derek's words made Perry’s face turn gloomy again.But this was really what the current situation was like. Since that bastard manager had presumptuously sold the Bathhouse, Derek was the dominant p

    Perry’s face was naturally extremely gloomy at this point.Derek was clearly trying to intimidate him!It was just an ordinary dice, but the power that emerged from Derek’s hand when he threw it was not inferior to the power contained in a bullet shot from a gun!Besides, the dice Derek shot had landed near Perry’s head. If Derek had intended to kill Perry, he would have probably been shot in the head by now!At the thought of this, Perry felt his entire body’s hair stand on end, and cold sweat rapidly seeped out of his pores, making him chilly all over.And Perry’s elite bodyguard was also overwhelmed with shock.As a bodyguard, he should protect his employer’s safety in any emergency situation.But the speed of the dice Derek shot out just now was so quick that it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. In fact, he only figured out what happened after hearing the terse and sharp sound of the dice shuttling through the air, followed by the loud bang.He couldn’t even react in time, let alon

    When Perry saw how bold and fearless Derek was, his facial muscles twitched a little as he gritted his teeth with great resentment and viciousness in his eyes.With a hypocritical grin, he said, “Hehe, why would I do that? Since I invited you here, I naturally have something to discuss with you.”He thought he had hidden his intentions well. But being a sharp and shrewd person, Derek had long seen through Perry.“Mr. Perry, don’t beat around the bush with me. If you have anything to say, just say it.” Derek couldn’t be bothered to exchange hypocritical pleasantries with him. He simply leaned against the couch and got straight to the point.Seeing Derek taking the lead in the conversation, Perry was displeased, and his face immediately turned dark.He waved his hand, and the few scantily clad beauties sitting beside him immediately walked out of the room.Soon, only Derek, Perry, and a burly man who followed Perry wherever he went were the only ones left in the large private room.Dere

    Derek frowned.He didn’t expect Aiden to die despite being in police custody.But there were definitely potential loopholes everywhere. If it was really the doing of the force that Derek guessed, the police would likely be defenceless and unable to guard against their actions.But Aiden’s death was not in vain. At the very least, Derek was now certain that the mastermind who instigated Aiden was more likely than not same person who sent the photographer.Otherwise, Aiden wouldn’t have died so easily.“Okay, I know.”Derek was about to hang up the phone when he noticed in the rearview mirror that there were several inconspicuous cars tailing his car. Their intentions were unclear, but he knew that they had to be up to no good.He frowned. They’re really everywhere. How annoying!He wondered who sent these people to tail him.With a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, Derek hung up the phone and quickly made another call. “Come to Clarine's apartment, I will send you an address.”Der

    Derek couldn't tell who it was yet, but he knew he would find out.With a sharp and cold gaze in his eyes, Derek raised his head and looked distantly in the direction of the DC. “Hmph, I don’t care who you really are. As long as you dare to reach your hand here, I don’t mind chopping it off!”When Derek reached the amusement park entrance, he saw Clarine waiting here for him worriedly.“Derek, did you get what you went for? Did you find everything?” she asked curiously.Derek raised his arm with two paper bags and said with a faint smile, “I got them. Fortunately, there was no queue.Clarine grinned and teased, “It turns out you really are caring.”Derek smiled. He merely nodded and said, “Yeah, so you have to be like me as well. In the meantime, it's getting late, let's go home.”Clarine nodded happily. Soon, the two of them got into Lucas’s car and sped off.…At this moment, in a luxurious villa in Dominican.A young man in his twenties was reclining on a soft leather sofa with a s

    Derek was still trying to figure out who it was, but then he scurried away quickly. But after covering only a short distance, he discovered that a tall and phantom-like figure had appeared in front of him to block him from leaving.“Still trying to run, huh?”The young man was flabbergasted because the person in front of him was the same person he had been secretly snapping photos of!A few seconds ago, this person was clearly more than meters behind him, yet he was standing in front of him in the blink of an eye. How did he do it?!Having been discovered and even stopped by the person he was secretly snapping photos of, the young man got a little nervous and gritted his teeth. He then barked in a menacing voice, “Why are you stopping me? Get lost!”Derek sneered and pointed at the camera the young man was holding. He asked indifferently, “You’ve been tailing me all afternoon, so you must have taken a lot of pictures, right? Did you think no one could discover you when you’re so clums

    In fact, Derek could have chosen not to catch Aiden and let him fall to his death just now, as he ought to reap what he sowed.But the words Aiden said earlier made Derek suspect that someone was instigating him. So Derek caught him and allowed him to stay alive to interrogate him and find out more from him.But the matter of Aiden taking Clarinet hostage and trying to jump off the building with her had alarmed almost all the police systems in the city. Many reporters had also hurried over with their cameras and equipment to get the first hand news scoop.In such a situation, Derek naturally couldn’t interrogate Aiden personally. He simply handed Aiden over to the special police officers for them to investigate.The chief special police officer nodded and instructed his subordinates to send Aiden to the hospital. After Aiden came to, they would bring him in for interrogation immediately.Of course, as the parties involved in the incident, Derek and Clarine had to make a mandatory trip

    Clarine watched as Derek vanished from the edge of the roof and screamed at the top of her lungs uncontrollably, “Derek!”Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she started bawling loudly, feeling as if her heart was being stabbed by daggers.In contrast, Aiden laughed out loud in great excitement. “Hahaha! What a dimwit. I managed to kill him so easily! I’m going to get rich again soon. Hahaha!”The police on the rooftop of the building couldn’t stop Derek in time and could only watch as he jumped off the building. They all shouted in horror and regret.At the same time, the crowd of onlookers on the ground also shrieked loudly in amazement.When Aiden heard the commotion at the bottom of the building, he guffawed hysterically with great smugness. Then he grabbed Clarine by the collar and looked at the ground to admire the scene of Derek’s badly mangled flesh after he fell off the building.Suddenly, there was a major change!A pair of hands suddenly reached over from the
