They were utterly shocked by Mason’s words. However, they refused to believe him, dismissing his claim as complete nonsense. To them, Mason was simply pretending to be the head of the Gilbert family to intimidate them and instill fear.

But that would never happen. In fact, they were growing increasingly frustrated with everything Mason was saying.

“That’s impossible!” Jerry rejected the notion outright. Even though he knew the Gilbert family was highly secretive, the idea of Mason being their leader was absurd.

In their eyes, Mason was nothing more than a young man sent as an envoy of the Gilbert family.

They were convinced that he was merely carrying out an assigned task. And they had to admit—Mason had succeeded.

That was when they realized just how dangerous their situation had become. This could turn into a complete disaster for them.

Jerry and Damian exchanged glances, silently communicating. A single nod from Damian was enough for Jerry to understand. They had to escape before t

    Mason sat quietly, enjoying his meal. He brought the food to his mouth and chewed slowly.At that moment, Rudolf stood beside him, deep in thought over Mason’s earlier words.The man lowered his head slightly before speaking. “Master, were you serious about the great disaster that will strike the city of Bruges?” Rudolf looked at Mason intently.He had investigated the matter ever since receiving the information from his master. Now, he needed confirmation.Mason swallowed his food, nodded, and took a slow sip of his drink. “Yes. Just as I told you before.”His expression shifted after Rudolf brought up the subject. Even his appetite diminished slightly.Rudolf remained silent for a moment, but his gaze never left his master. “Master, I haven’t found any news about that.”He swallowed hard. “According to the data I’ve studied, nothing is going to happen,” he said in a quiet voice.“Master, all the information I gathered indicates that everything is fine. The weather, the winds—everyth

    Unconsciously, Mason had fallen asleep in the park. When he just woke up, Mason saw two police officers standing in front of him with cold expressions. The two officers seemed to want to intimidate him.Mason slowly got up. He looked at the two officers calmly.One of the officers played with the baton in his hand, his gaze scrutinizing Mason's appearance. He raised an eyebrow slightly and asked in a cold voice, “Why are you here?”“You should know that you can’t just sleep anywhere in the park,” the other officer emphasized.“Are you homeless?” After scanning Mason, the officer quickly corrected his statement. Mason didn’t look like a homeless person. His clothes were neat, and his hair was not messy. However, the officer continued his investigation. “Did you just take drugs?”They stared at him coldly, waiting for Mason's response.Mason shook his head slowly. “No. I just wanted to spend some time here,” he said calmly.At this moment, he realized that the two officers were very sus

    Mason had already prepared himself, knowing that the two officers were about to attack him. His eyes quickly darted to a stone beneath him. With swift movement, Mason silently picked it up.Just as one of the officers aimed his gun at him, Mason threw the stone with a quick motion.The movement was so fast that the officer didn’t even see it coming or have time to dodge. The stone hit the officer’s hand squarely, causing him to drop the gun."Ahhh..." the man screamed, feeling pain in his wrist. The stone had successfully injured his hand and caused intense pain.The officer immediately held his aching hand, realizing a little blood was starting to seep from the wound. This only fueled his anger even more. "Damn. How dare he do this!"His partner couldn’t accept the situation easily. He pointed at Mason and shouted, "What have you done?""You’ve just attacked a police officer. You’re truly disrespectful," the officer cursed at Mason.Meanwhile, the injured officer ignored the pain in

    The two police officers were still very doubtful of Mason, but they wanted to hear what Mason had to say.They both stood in front of Mason, blocking his way as he tried to leave. "Say what you need to say.""We want to hear it." Henry crossed his arms, giving a very serious look.Mason gave a faint grin, looking at the two officers casually. "Just leave everything regarding the pedophile case to me.""I'll find him quickly." Mason said it with full confidence. "I only need half a day to uncover everything."It wasn't something difficult for Mason to do. He could rely on himself, or even Rudolf, who had experience. That person would be found easily.However, after hearing Mason's seemingly casual statement, both officers became even more distrustful of him. They thought that Mason was underestimating such a serious matter and believed he was just playing around.The officer stared at Mason coldly. He slightly grinned. "Do you think this case will be easy to uncover?"They knew that pe

    A police officer placed his phone against his left ear, his sharp gaze accompanied by a cold expression.At this moment, he was calling his colleague. He had been waiting there for some time, yet until now, he still hadn’t seen their faces return.As soon as the call connected, the officer immediately spoke, “Are you not doing your job?” His tone was firm, emphasizing his words. He felt annoyed, believing that his colleague was not properly handling the task.They had already wasted a lot of time trying to uncover this issue. Yet even now, there were no signs that they were truly making progress in solving the case.A sigh came from the other end of the phone. “I’ve done my job,” Hendry replied coldly.The man felt slightly frustrated with his colleague. He should have understood that uncovering this case was not an easy task. At this moment, Hendry was almost certain that his partner was deliberately hiding something.“It would be better if you stopped nagging and pressuring me like

    At this moment, Henry had finally managed to uncover the pedophilia case that had recently caused unrest among several parties.After receiving the documents from Mason, Henry felt that his work had become significantly smoother and easier to handle.Once he successfully apprehended the perpetrator, he earned recognition from his commander and praise from several colleagues. Naturally, this made Henry feel a great sense of satisfaction."After two long months, this case is finally over," he murmured softly.His thoughts drifted back to Mason. Of course, he couldn’t deny that all of this had only been possible because of the data Mason had provided.There was no doubt that the information had been highly accurate, making his job much easier. Once again, Mason’s words echoed in his mind.Henry fell silent for a moment, feeling a tinge of regret as he recalled how he had initially doubted Mason. In hindsight, he realized that if he had refused Mason’s documents back then, the case might

    A man named Justin sat across from Mason, observing the changes in him with a pleased expression.A smile formed on Justin’s lips as he took a sip of the drink that had been served. “It’s been such a long time since we last met.”Justin couldn’t even remember exactly when they had last seen each other, but he did recall Selena’s displeased expression whenever they did.Setting his glass down on the table, Justin suddenly recalled something. His gaze returned to Mason, and he furrowed his brows. “I heard that you and Selena are divorced.”He had heard the news quite some time ago, and now that they had met, he didn’t want to miss the chance to confirm it.Mason nodded as he took a sip of his coffee. He couldn’t deny that his life had been much more peaceful since their separation.“Oh, really?” Justin raised an eyebrow. He had initially been skeptical about the news, but hearing Mason confirm it made him recall something else.After Selena announced their divorce, Justin had also come

    It was clear that Justin’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he gazed at his car.He kept running his hand over the vehicle with pride. To him, owning a car was a huge achievement. At that moment, his gaze shifted back to Mason. He wasn’t sure if Mason had a car or not, but all he wanted was to share his happiness with him.A silver car stood parked in front of them. It was a transport vehicle, likely used for work. Mason could tell that Justin had bought it for practical purposes.“I’m really happy that I was able to buy this car. Isn’t it amazing?” Justin looked at Mason with joy. He had saved up for months to afford it.Mason understood. He knew that Justin had always lived a modest life. To someone like him, even an ordinary car felt like a luxury.Justin had no idea that Mason could easily buy thousands of cars like this. But Mason didn’t want to ruin his friend’s happiness by saying anything insensitive.Instead, Mason nodded. “Yes, this is incredible. You did a great job buying

Since earlier he had been very angry with everything Mason said.Johnson thought Mason was a shameless man. Even after everyone doubted him, he still insisted on saying that he was the man who donated the 200 million dollars."Are you going to say now that the name Mason written in front is you?" Johnson laughed again very loudly. "Everyone knows that you are from that city, and even though they have the Gilbert family, that family is nothing compared to us."Johnson showed himself full of confidence.

It was very doubtful when Mason who arrived from a city that had just experienced a major fire could donate 200 million dollars.Johnson immediately stood up and stared at Mason very seriously. "Say it again, it seems I heard wrong, did he just say that he would donate 200 million dollars?" Johnson said it in a loud voice.The man really hoped that everyone would immediately say that he had heard wrong.After that the man spoke again. "Repeat what you just said? Do you want to say that you want to donate 200,000 dollars?" the man confirmed it to Mason.Yes, it would make much more sense if Amazon only donated $200,000.“It seems like I’m ringing at most.
