Huh?The manager froze as she looked at Eric in shock. What the hell was this person saying? He'd better not be playing with her right?The sales girl attending to Eric also looked at him feeling shocked, what the hell was happening?"You do not even have the money to get one of the Villas, yet you want to get all seven, isn't your ambition a little bit too high into the sky?" The sales girl mocking Eric sneered, not minding the fact that the manager was there."We'll know if my ambition is high into the sky soon or not." Eric shrugged turning to the other sales girl,"Take this and pay. The password is four zeros." Eric said as he brought out his card.The sales girl looked dumbfoundedly at Eric and didn't know what to say, "Sir, if you want to buy the seven...""Don't worry, I don't care how much it costs, just hurry up and swipe the card." Eric waved his hand interrupting the girl."You still want to continue with your games?" The other sales girl sneered as she looked at Eric.In
"Here it is." Eric sighed as he looked at the huge Villa in front of him. Shaking his head, he pushed all thoughts to the back of his mind and wanted to knock.But before he could knock, the door swung open making Eric stop mid-air."Ohh, you here." Chole's cold voice came as she said blandly without any hint of respect, walking out of the door and looking at Eric who was standing at the door.Eric sucked in a cold breath as he looked at Chole. Wasn't that a little bit too informal? Even if he was going to become her bodyguard, at least, she had to respect him a little.With the way she was looking at him, it showed that she looked down on him which made Eric uncomfortable and annoyed. If he had known, even if it was a mission from the system, he would have rejected it.He was too angry to even admire her beauty or the clothes which she was wearing. If not for the fact that she was a lady, Eric would have rushed forward and punched her guts."Hey, what are you still standing there fo
Immediately, the security men playing games all stood up and rushed forward blocking off the men. At that moment, there was a smell of gunpowder in the air as both sides glanced at each other in hostility.Eric chuckled from where he sat as he watched the scene, it was none of his business anyway, so he was just going to watch a good show."Call out that bitch, or else I don't mind whacking you up to vent my anger." The young man sneered looking at the security men."We are sorry, but no one is going to call anyone. The Wallace group of companies is not a place for you to come and run amok." One of the security men replied firmly, glaring at the men holding batons without a hint of fear.They were all from the army and had retired for a reason or two, so they were not afraid of getting into a fight with the men."Hehehe.""I can see that you possess some confidence, but I don't care, get that bitch Natalie over, I need an explanation for what she did." The young man laughed as he dema
"Huh?"Everyone froze seeing Eric suddenly appear and block Leo's punch as though he was stopping two children from fighting."Who are you?" Leo frowned looking at Eric with a frown on his face."Don't worry, I'm not a big shot." Eric laughed as he left Leo's arms.To be honest, Eric was a little bit shocked in his heart, the explosive power contained in Leo's punch would have turned Natalie into a cripple if the punch had hit her. Besides, he was forced a few steps backward which showed how powerful it was."You should stand back, I'll help you take care of him." Eric chuckled, turning around to look at Natalie."I don't need your help." Natalie gritted her teeth as she muttered stubbornly."Is there a need to be stubborn?" Eric raised his brows feeling rather annoyed."That's none of your business, hurry up and move aside, I'll finish him off myself." Natalie snorted coldly as she attempted to shove Eric away."Are you a retard or what the heck are you?" Eric immediately got angry.
"I fucking hate this," Eric muttered angrily under his breath as he played a game on his phone.This was already the third day since he had been Chole's bodyguard, for the past three days, he had been quite idle and had not been able to anywhere or do anything.As for the situation in Cisco, everything had been stabilized, he was still considering what kind of product they would produce next, so he wasn't in a hurry.As for Chole, she was still as cold as ever, and then Natalie, ever since the incident he had not seen her again.Thinking about all this, Eric shook his head as he couldn't see any hope of completing the mission. Besides, the system had not made things easy for him and would always diss him at every given chance.As a result, Eric felt that he had grown old in these three days. Dealing with those two women was a hassle in the first place, and then the system wouldn't let him rest, constantly reminding him to pick up girls.Ring! Ring!Just then Eric's phone rang making h
"Huh?"Both Eric and Evelyn froze hearing what the person on the other end said."Tell me, what's the description of the car?" Evelyn soon calmed and asked."It's two black Mercedes Benz, with a plate number of, AYR-554D and VYD-663S." The voice on the other end replied.Just then, two black cars passed by the two in a very fast manner, immediately, Evelyn looked out to check the plate number of the car at the back and then saw it was one of what the officer had called."I'll call you back!" Evelyn immediately ended the call as she stepped on the brakes forcefully bringing the car to a stop, at the same time stepping hard on the accelerator which performed a clean drift as the car turned around.Soon, the Lamborghini dashed forward, chasing after the two Mercedes Benz. At the moment, Evelyn couldn't care less about anything as her sight was on the two cars which were some distance away from them.Eric frowned as he looked at the cars in front, the two had the plate number the officer
Eric stepped hard on the accelerator of the Lambo, and immediately, it shot forward at a high speed covering hundreds of meters in seconds.In a short while, the Lambo had almost caught up to the second car. The driver of the other car was also rather skilled, so it wasn't that easy for Eric to catch up.Coupled with the other cars on the road, there was no way he was going to be able to catch up to the car, though he might still catch up, it would be something hard.If not for the fact that Eric had a very good understanding of cars, a lot of accidents would have happened as the other driver kept putting Eric in danger."Isn't there a way to catch up with them?" Eric racked his brain as he began to think about what he was going to do about it. The other party's driver was also quite skilled as a result. It wouldn't be easy to catch up. He had to look for a way to catch up to them.The race between the two cars continued as both cars drove recklessly and dangerously on the road leavi
Eric jumped out of the car, opened the driver's door, and pulled out the driver, then he tore the shirt of the driver and used it to tie the place he shot on his thigh to prevent further bleeding.Afterward, Eric stood up and walked towards the car and dragged the remaining men out of the car, disarmed them before throwing them to a corner. Walking towards the first unlucky one he had thrown out of the car, he smiled and grabbed him to join the latter as he had fainted.At that moment, the whole place was silent as everyone watched Eric. It was as though they were watching a movie scene live.From the time Eric had ripped off the door of the Benz, to disarming the criminals and all other things he did."Phew! That was close," Eric sighed, wiping away the sweat on his face.Turning around, he looked at the disfigured Lambo not far from him and couldn't help but smile bitterly.This was bad, that tyrannosaurus of a woman was probably going to have his head. How was he going to pacify he
In less than five minutes, Eric got to the Villa where he was going. At the moment, he was standing on the rooftop of another Villa observing the Villa.After a while, he leaped off the roof and landed softly. If he was to stay too long, he would be discovered and that was not what he wanted.All that he wanted was just to do what he came to do without any problems.Eric sighed and looked at the Villa with a sigh. Though he didn't see anyone outside the Villa, he could tell that there was security all around.At the same time, he was feeling lazy and was not willing to confirm his theory.So he just stood at a corner observing the Villa. He still had a lot of time, so there was no need to rush.He didn't know what the patrol would end, but that didn't mean he cared. If things proved to be rocky, he was just going to head to a hotel and sneak in.Or he could go to any other place to spend the night. From the rules, everywhere was to be shut down once it was seven.Activities could stil
"We've arrived at the estate." The driver said, breaking the silence in the car after a long while."Good." Eric stretched and opened the car door, alighting from the car."Sir, here's your money." Eric gave the man one of the notes that had been exchanged at the airport."Young man, I don't think I have changed. Your money is only a hundred Draco, and yet you're giving me a five hundred Draco." He smiled bitterly."You should just accept it, I don't have another." Eric smiled bitterly and pushed the money into the man's hands then walked off even before he could say anything.Soon, the sound of the taxi leaving the Vicinity could be heard and Eric couldn't help but sigh in relief.Looking at his watch, he realized that there were just ten minutes left till seven.Though he was in an estate, he was not sure what could happen and thus could only thread carefully.He couldn't be too rash in his decision, also, he didn't know what the security of the place he was going to look like.Aft
"Shit!" Eric cursed angrily under his breath raising his hands to check the time on his watch only to see that it was almost seven.He had been trying to stop a taxi for the past thirty minutes, but it was all futile.All the taxis he flagged would stop at first, but then after hearing where he was going, they would decline.Though he felt that it was because the place was too far, he could tell that there was another reason.What was he going to do? With the weird rule of the country, he was going to have to step back into the hotel.He didn't want to spend the night and just wanted to get to what he wanted. Finish it up and then leave the country.Though he was not scared of breaking the rules of the country as he was confident in his strength, at the same time, he was not willing to be caught in the mess.After all, it was none of his problems. He wouldn't have known that such was happening if it was not for the idiot who called Sophia.Eric sighed and looked around. The street was
"Good morning sir." Michael's old voice came from the other end of the phone just as the call was connected."Good morning," Eric replied he was not used to formalities and thus just went straight to the point."What about the ticket, has it been bought?" Eric inquired."Yeah, I have bought it. Also, I happen to have a friend at the airport. I'll give him a call right now, and he will direct you on the rest." Micheal answered."Thanks for the trouble." Eric smiled and ended the call.Stepping hard on the accelerator, the car dashed forward heading toward the airport. He planned to go and come back that very day, though he was sure that was not possible, he was still going to go home.If they were to text him, he was going to lie to them. There was no need for them to worry.All he hoped was that what he was going to do was going to be successful, or else it was going to be quite a hassle if it wasn't.Soon, Eric arrived at the airport. Looking for a spot to park his car, Eric walked
(The Next Day)"Are you sure the head of the police would not be annoyed?" Charlotte asked as she turned to look at Eric with a slight frown on her face."Why should she get annoyed?" Eric shrugged, getting into the car.Everyone had already gone to work except for Aunt Mary who was always at home.For some unknown reason, Charlotte happened to sleep more than she was supposed to and thus woke up late.Eric wouldn't have woken up early if it was not for Emily who barged into the room and complained that he was to get a car for Emily.Chloe's workplace and Emily's workplace were quite a distance from each other.So because they didn't want to disturb Eric, Emily was the one taking them all to work.Natalie had a car, and Evelyn refused to take the car Chloe offered her.After all, it was Eric who had given it to her. So the lazy girl stormed to Eric's room that morning and demanded that he get Emily a car.As for Sophia, Eric's company was just right before they got to Chloe's company,
"You don't have to look so nervous, it's not as though I want to gobble you up." Eric chuckled, stepping into the house and glancing at Sophia, who seemed rather nervous, though she was trying her best to hide it."I'm not nervous." Sophia immediately denied it and walked back to the cushion, still struggling to hide her nervousness.She had been thinking about how to get Eric to notice her, she didn't know that he already did notice her and was coming already.Also, she didn't want the others to see Eric here; after all, what was a man with two girlfriends doing in the house of a single lady like her? That was going to arouse a lot of suspicion and she didn't want something like that."So you've been wanting to talk to me, what do you want to tell me?" Eric broke the silence and stared at Sophia who appeared to be lost in her thoughts."Well...." Sophia stuttered, not knowing what to say."I...." She continued to play with her fingers as she struggled to spill out the words.It was a
"What are you doing here?" Evelyn turned around, looking at Eric who had just walked into her room."Should I go back instead?" Eric asked, turning around to leave."I didn't say that, I was just asking what you wanted." Evelyn sighed, face palming not knowing what to do to Eric."What do husband and wife do together, alone and at night?" Eric grinned, walking towards Evelyn who was sitting on a chair with a lot of paperwork, intending to grope her from behind."I hope you remember that this room is soundproof right." Evelyn chuckled as she placed something on the table, which made Eric stop in his tracks."But this ain't fair." Eric sighed, feeling rather disgruntled."This world ain't fine baby." Evelyn grinned, turning around to look at Eric."So what do you want?" Evelyn asked, her voice finally turned serious as she looked at Eric."I know you have many questions, you can ask." Eric sighed and sat on the bed, staring at Evelyn who was now looking at him."Well...." Evelyn stutter
"Did you just say you were the target of an assassination?" Evelyn broke the silence as she asked, staring at Eric."Yeah, someone wanted my head back then. So I was almost assassinated when I went to Brooklyn." Eric replied, seemingly not noticing their expressions."Are you alright? Hope you were not injured?" Chole asked this time as she looked at Eric."You guys don't need to worry; it's been quite a while, even the incident, so there's no need to panic." Eric waved his hands and sat on the empty chair while pulling Charlotte to sit on the other chair.At the moment, there was no space on the dining table, and if anyone were to walk into the house, then they would have to wait till they finished eating."Aunt Mary, what do we have to eat tonight?" Eric changed the topic, looking at Aunt Mary who was now looking at him with a smile on her face.They had all kinda agreed in their hearts not to worry about Eric. He was a cultivator, after all, and they knew how powerful he was.They
"I never knew you were this rich!" Charlotte turned to look at Eric as he drove into the estate.Eric glanced at Charlotte and didn't say anything. He knew well that she was just being sarcastic, so there was no need to reply to her. If he did, he would just be looking for trouble.Also, he had been thinking of a way to convince Emily not to say too much because he knew she was the only one who was going to get inquisitive.The others were likely not to ask questions, but Emily was unbridled and was going to ask some questions.Driving into the garage, Eric parked the car and alighted alongside Charlotte. They had been stuck in traffic, or else they would have gotten home quite a long time."Why do you look so nervous, you look like you are trying to hide something?" Charlotte squinted her brows as she looked at Eric who was deep in thought as they walked into the house."It's nothing much, you don't have to worry." Eric shook his head, still wondering what he was going to say to Emil
