Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 258
Both Derek and Tony were standing by the card table, each holding a dice cup and a dice.“Since you also choose to shake it yourself, how about we have the dealer be the judge of this game? We’ll start shaking, stop, and then open the cup at the same time. How does that sound?” Tony said confidently as he tossed away the dice in his hand.“No problem.” Derek nodded.The dealer took a deep breath, stood between the two of them, and then swung her hand down. “One, two, three, begin!”Derek and Tony simultaneously threw their dice into their dice cup and then started shaking.Amid the sounds of dice rapidly knocking against the walls of the dice cups, everyone held their breath and listened carefully to the movement.Everyone in the room except for the two beautiful women, Brenda and Ava, and Derek were subordinates of Tony.Listening to the sound to determine the number of points on a dice was an extremely important thing to do when it came to dice shaking, so they naturally dared not m

“Ah!”Tony’s sudden outrage and accusation of Derek cheating really caught Brenda and Ava off guard, and they shrieked.But Derek wasn’t surprised.He had long seen that people like Tony were the kind of people who couldn’t afford to lose.It was his turf in the first place, and he was accompanied by a lot of his henchmen and subordinates. Even if he refused to comply and admit defeat, no one would dare to say anything.Unfortunately, Derek wasn’t the type to be frightened by a tiny pistol.“Heh.” Derek suddenly chuckled when he thought of something.This was one of the few times a gun had been pointed at him in the short period of time since he returned to Dominican.Now, in front of him, Tony also dared to aim a gun at him.“Hmph, you can still laugh out loud even when being held at gunpoint. I have to admit that I really admire your courage.”Tony held the pistol and pointed it at Derek’s head with a triumphant expression, as if he was already confident of winning. He was relishing
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 260
Derek’s words were like a boulder thrown into a lake.Stunned by his words, they looked at each other and were at a loss for how to react.As the person Derek was pointing his finger at, Tony nearly exploded with rage!“Bastard! I think you’re tired of living! Damn it. I wanted to give you a chance and groom you because you’re quite capable, but since you don’t know any better, go to hell!”Then his finger moved on the trigger, ready to shoot Derek!Suddenly, a cold and sharp blade was pressed against Tony’s neck.“Stop, don’t move.” A deep but familiar voice rang beside Tony’s ear.As expected, Tony didn’t dare to move. As someone who had been involved with gangs for years, he could tell just from the feeling of the cold and sharp blade being pressed against the artery of his neck that it must be an extremely sharp dagger!He could even sense the chilliness coming from the blade. It was as if the dagger would slit his throat as long as he breathed a little harder!Now, Tony didn’t eve
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 261
All of Tony’s underlings looked at the dice stuck in the wall with astonishment all over their faces. Seeing that the dice had pierced through Tony’s wrist and bore a hole in it, they huddled in the corner, not daring to breathe.Blade reacted very quickly. After seeing that Tony had been subdued by a tiny dice that Derek threw, he quickly stepped forward, grabbed the dagger with resentment in his eyes, and then ruthlessly and accurately slashed Tony’s wrist!“Waahhh!” Tony shrieked miserably as his entire right hand was severed by the sharp dagger!His severed hand fell to the ground, and fresh blood immediately gushed out of his wrist. There was instantly a pool of blood.The underlings began shuddering in fear, feeling intimidated by Blade’s ruthlessness.Due to the intense and excruciating pain in his wrist, Tony’s eyes rolled backwards uncontrollably, and he passed out in pain.But his miserable shriek had already penetrated through the walls of the room and spread outside.The p

Blade was instantly on cloud nine. Derek’s words meant that he would officially become the person in charge of Small Bean Bar.The series of events that happened in Small Bean Bar today had once again proven Derek’s absolute strength and power!Blade had always been a clear-headed person who was good at analyzing the pros and cons of every matter. He was certain that as long as he was subordinate to Derek, his future achievements would definitely be far beyond Small Bean Bar!On the other hand, among the people standing at the corner, there were some who didn’t agree with Derek and simply sneered at him contemptuously.A bearded middle-aged man walked out from the crowd and shouted, “Punk, I don’t know who you are, but Tony is still the owner of Small Bean Bar! He isn’t dead yet. Who are you to appoint a new owner?”Jeff Colby a powerful figure in Small Bean Bar who was second only to Tony.Jeff was not actually that loyal to Tony. But rather, he was incredibly displeased with the fac
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 263
As soon as Derek walked out, a slender figure suddenly leaped into his arms and hugged his waist tightly.With a trace of shock on his face, Derek gaped a little, dumbfounded for a moment.He never expected that Brenda would leap into his embrace and hug him tightly in front of everyone!After being dumbfounded for a while, Derek finally snapped back to his senses. His heart was full of joy and sweetness.He reached his hands out and gently put them around Brenda’s waist while patting her back comfortingly.He could find Clarine with an apologetic look, on the other hand, after Ava saw what Brenda was doing, she was even more certain that Brenda’s relationship with him was extraordinary, unlike what she had thought previously.Is he the one people always regarded as the loser son in law? Ava thought to herself.The people around were still surrounding Derek. Many of them wanted to ask him what happened in the room and who the final winner of the gamble was, which was their greatest co
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 264
Upon hearing Ava’s question, Derek shook his head while driving. “I won’t do anything for him, of course. They had a minor internal conflict just now, and it escalated into a scuffle, so I came out.”Ava nodded. “That sounds much more plausible. That scoundrel Tony Zander gets up to heinous misdeeds all day, so you mustn’t work for him. Evildoers will never end up well! But you must have offended him by running away just like that, right? Why don’t I put in a good word for you in front of my dad and ask him to help you?”Ava raised her chin arrogantly, as if to say, ‘Quick, come beg me, and I’ll help you talk to my dad’. She should have looked obnoxious, but she surprisingly didn’t seem detestable when doing this. Derek just found her eccentric."Your dad?" Derek said in surprise."Yes, my dad. Mr Colby. A very important person in society.""One word from him is enough." Ava insisted.However, Derek smiled to himself and thought. If he were that important, there was no way he wouldn't
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 265
Ever since Ava mentioned her dad’s name, Derek had looked at her with the personality of a weak and spoiled daughter of a rich man, who worked with the intention of building a name for herself.However, his speculations seemed wrong with her actions.“Ava, the current situation you are in is quite dangerous. Why not stay at my place for the time being? I have a lot of rooms to keep you comfortable.” Brenda suggested in concern...Ava smiled and shook her head to turn down Brenda’s kind offer. “Thanks, maam but there are numbers of security guards in the villa. I’ll be safe once I go inside. I’ll be alright. Thanks for caring, boss.”Brenda thought about it and felt that she was right. Since Ava was already at the doorstep of her own home, Brenda merely reminded, “Be careful then. Ask your dad to assign a few elite bodyguards to protect you in case those crooks get up to more malice and try to harm you.”Ava nodded. “Alright, I will.”Then she turned and said to Derek, “Thank you so m

W-what’s going on?The ten-odd bodyguards who barged in glared at Derek like he was a great enemy.On the ground, Perry gritted his teeth resentfully as he struggled to raise his head to look at the bodyguards and ordered, “Kill… kill him!”The punch Derek threw at his abdomen left Perry in so much pain that he was on the verge of throwing up all the food he had eaten for the past few days. 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

CHAPTER 291
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

CHAPTER 290
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

CHAPTER 286
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

CHAPTER 285
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
