"Yes, it would be better, I'll be able to pay for my son's hospital bill and my hospital bill from it." The old woman said rather excitedly."Well then since that's the case, I'll give you six million." Eric smiled as he put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a card."Here's my card, withdraw six million and bring back the card to me. The password is 0000." Eric smiled as he gave the woman his card."Huh?"The woman froze as she couldn't believe her eyes. What the hell was she looking at? This was the legendary black card in front of her and yet she was seeing it.Even though she had seen a lot of black cards, the level of this one on the young man's hand was quite different and she had never seen it before. But then soon greed covered her eyes as the only thing she could think about was Money.Meanwhile, the still body on the floor beside her suddenly convulsed and trembled slightly. Just now, the old man lying on the floor had opened his eyes out of excitement hearing that Eric w
"So all that happened yesterday and you didn't inform me, brother." Emily rolled her eyes as she looked at Eric."Well, it was not my fault that you didn't know about it." Eric shrugged and got into the car."Well if you had not suddenly gone to Atlanta and then left me to come by myself, then I would have known about it." Emily rolled her eyes at Eric as she complained."Whatever." Eric sighed."Take me to the airport, I'm going back to Brooklyn," Eric said, getting into the car."Have you informed my sister-in-law?" Emily raised her brows looking at Eric."Nope, I didn't tell her, you help me tell her, what I need to do is urgent, so just take me to the airport, don't argue," Eric instructed."Fine," Emily muttered, not knowing what to say.She could tell when Eric was serious and when he was joking, so she knew that he was not joking.Eric on the other hand felt as though his insides were churning. He had received a call from Charlotte the night before that the geniuses he was look
"So do you want to know about the details of the mission?" Charlotte asked with a chuckle as she walked out of the airport. "I'm just going there as a support, why should I know about the details." Eric shrugged, feeling uninterested in knowing whatever Charlotte wanted to say. "Well since you don't want to appreciate my goodwill, I'll just leave you to your devices." Charlotte rolled her eyes at Eric. "What do you mean?" Eric froze, feeling that something was off. "Well, I was trying to help you create a chance so that you can get closer to her and then what you want to do would be a success without much stress and yet you were ignoring my intentions." Charlotte snorted, turning away from Eric. Eric's face darkened upon hearing this. At this moment, he realized that he might have worked into a trap that he knew not. Well, he was just going to consider it as a debt, he was going to have his revenge later. For now, he was going to go with whatever she wanted him to do. "Alright
(The Next Day)"So you know all that you'll do right?" Charlotte glanced at Eric skeptically."You've said this over a hundred times, even a donkey would know what to do, talk more or less to me." Eric couldn't help it anymore and blurted out, glaring at Charlotte."Fine, I'm sorry." Charlotte sighed.She was just worried that Eric was not going to go according to the plan that she gave him and would end up spoiling things.First, they were trying to make it known that the defense department was involved in it.It was a rule that the defense department of a particular country wouldn't participate in the killings or anything.They would offer protection to no one except the country and whatever was going to happen as long as it was not going to affect public peace or the country's security, they were not going to get involved with it.But that was just a rule, in reality, they were getting involved, but it had to be secretive as such, they had to make sure that everything went accordin
Eric arrived at the airport. Parked the car where the cab drivers would normally park theirs and strode into the airport.He was not going to wait for Sophia to come out of the airport before he was going to meet her, he was going to just make use of his chance to get close to her.He knew quite well that the enemies were on high alert and he was also on alert, his eyes scanning all around for those who would want to do something.Though he didn't spot anyone for the time being, he was sure that they were going to get impatient very soon.Besides, there was still a lot of time before the plane would arrive. Since that was the case, he was going to chat with the system for a while.Opening through the interface, Eric nodded in satisfaction, his points were now more than six million. He would be able to buy the next cultivation level above the nascent soul.[Ding! New mission available]The system's notification suddenly sounded in Eric's mind."Make Sophia your woman in two weeks!"Eri
"What the heck was happening, why didn't I notice them before?" Eric muttered under his breath looking around.His heart had already calmed and he was just a bit surprised at the moment. The airport was filled with cultivators ranging from the Qi Foundation to the Golden Core.Besides, they seemed to have a special way of hiding their powers, and even a Nascent soul wouldn't have been able to know.If not for the fact that the system helped Eric increase his strength, he was afraid that he would have not noticed."System, by chance, do you know the future?" Eric couldn't help but ask, the shock in his heart was yet to reduce."That's your business. You're still weak, and thus, even if I say it, you won't be able to understand." The system's harsh reply came just as Eric had expected.Eric shook his head and walked towards the place where he would meet Sophia. Since the stakes were extremely high, he had to make sure that he was the first to meet her, or else there would be a little bi
Get in Ma'am." Eric smiled, opening the door for Sophia.The smile on his face had not receded all along making Sophia wonder what was wrong.Eric, at the moment, couldn't help but sigh a bit in his heart. Wasn't Sophia a little bit naive?She had allowed him to take her home just like that. Well, it was not her fault; she had the belief that no one was going to harm her.Well, it was her luck that she met someone like him, or else it would have been a disaster.Getting into the car, he stared at Sophia and then with a polite voice, he asked."Where would you like me to take you to?""Just take me to the Tonks family residence directly.." Sophia thought for a while and replied...Eric nodded and then drove toward the location of the Tonks family villa.Just in case Sophia was not willing to go home, Charlotte had already prepared Eric for it and told him all the possible places she might want to visit.But Eric was quite lucky as Sophia just wanted to go home directly.Well, he was no
Immediately, Eric stripped on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop."Is there anything wrong?" He turned around asking Sophia, his voice trembling.Sophia squinted her brows staring at Eric. She had already seen what was happening and was sure that with the way Eric was driving, he would be able to keep the distance between them till they arrived at a safe place.He was just too good and his driving skills were rather unparalleled. Where she worked was an automobile company.Furthermore, with her interest in cars, she could be considered to be a bit of a racer. But when compared to Eric, she would be trash.If she was the one chasing after him in this situation, she was sure that she wouldn't be able to catch up with him.Could it be that Eric was one of them who was just trying to pretend and get close to her so he would be able to kill her in one swoop?But if that was the case, he should have already taken action. Besides, he was scared, though he was scared, he was still able to
