At that moment, she immediately heard the sound of helicopter engines roaring, from afar over a dozen helicopters were flying towards them, each carrying a long white canvas behind them, used for mourning and expressing sorrow for the deceased.
These helicopters were also towing a large tourist yacht, slowly moving in this direction. And Richard was standing on the yacht, hands clasped behind his back, standing there proudly. Along the Willow Creek river, a black car was driving on the road, Darius and Edgar were sitting in that car. Looking at the riverbank after it had been demolished and relocated, Edgar laughed: "Grandpa, look at this, the entire area along Willow Creek has been demolished.And yet, today, Richard wants to hold a memorial ceremony for his brother. I wonder who gave him the courage to say such things, guessing today he won’t even be able to get close to the riverbank." Darius glanced over and sneered: "Such a loser like Richard shouldn’t be mentioned in the future.If you have too much free time, you should spend it learning more." "Yes, grandfather, I understand." As they drove on, Edgar suddenly pointed outside the car window and said: "Grandpa, look, why are there so many helicopters?" Darius looked out the car window to see dozens of helicopters in the sky, each with a long white canvas banner, as if mourning someone. "Could it be." Darius quickly shook his head and smiled disdainfully, he did not want to mention the name that disgusted him. "Grandpa, see what that is?" Darius squinted and saw a ship splitting the water, slowly approaching from afar. On the deck, a man was standing tall with his head held high. The wind blew through his hair, his stance proud. This figure was very familiar. Darius frowned, if the man he was thinking of was indeed the person in question, then the situation would be very troublesome. "Let's go over there and have a look." "Yes." The car drove into the blocked area and stopped about a hundred meters from the riverbank. Darius and Edgar got out of the car to observe. This time, they could clearly see that the man standing tall on the boat was none other than Richard, the very person they had always deemed worthless!!! "How could this be?" A great fear was slowly rising in Darius's heart. He had thought Richard was just bragging and could not possibly organize a memorial ceremony for Andrew. Who could have imagined that not only did Richard manage it, but he also did so on a grand and solemn scale? "Richard, how could he do this?" Darius was very confused, even feeling a bit regretful. He should not have severed ties with Richard that day, or at least should not have been so definitive about it. Edgar was so shocked by the scene before him that his eyes bulged and his mouth gaped open. Dozens of helicopters, a guest yacht running on schedule, and holding a memorial ceremony during such a sensitive time, even the James family could not have such great power. But someone they had looked down on like Richard had actually achieved it. "Am I seeing things?" At this moment, all the people around ran over to watch, their eyes bulging and mouths gaping open as well. "Which high-ranking official is here to hold a memorial ceremony?" "I don't know, but anyone who can create such a scene must be no ordinary person." "Today is the day of demolition and relocation, yet this dignitary shows no fear, boldly holding a memorial ceremony on the riverbank, truly impressive." Serena was the most terrified person here. She could never have imagined that the husband she always deemed worthless was actually so powerful. Tears filled Serena's eyes as she watched the yacht slowly approaching. After a while, the yacht also stopped. Richard descended the stairs, followed closely by a group of people from the boat, each carrying a large bouquet of flowers. They respectfully placed the fresh flowers in front of the grave and stood aside. Richard walked over to stand next to Serena, saying nothing, just silently standing with her in front of the grave. Serena had many questions she wanted to ask, but now was clearly not the right time, so she quietly stood beside him, paying respects to his brother. Suddenly. An SUV drove straight in, followed by three large trucks. Bang, bang, bang.The car doors were opened one by one, and a group of tall men holding various sharp weapons got out, easily numbering forty to fifty people.
Leading them were Brian and Eric. "What's going on here?" "Don't you know this place has been sealed off?" "Everyone, clear off now!" Eric's shout immediately broke the solemn atmosphere. Richard frowned, slowly turning to glance at Eric: "Today is my brother's birthday. I don't want to fight, so you better leave quickly. Whatever accounts you want to settle, just note them down. I'll deal with you slowly some other day." "When? Settle accounts?" Eric smirked, pointing towards the tall men holding weapons behind him: "Open your dog eyes and look, I brought people today. Richard, no matter how powerful you are, can you fight against ten, twenty, or thirty people alone?" "Just so you know, we are here for the demolition and relocation work. Today, we're not only going to drive you away but also demolish that grave." "In short, we're here to demolish Andrew's grave!" Hearing these words, Richard clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with murderous intent, angrier than he had ever been before. "Today is Andrew's birthday. I really didn't want to get angry." "But if you scum insist on courting death, I have no choice." Brian stepped forward, removing his sunglasses and blowing on them: "Richard, still spouting nonsense? Bringing a helicopter and a tourist yacht today, what good does that do? You only have twenty people here, and you think you can fight against me?" Richard laughed out loud: "There's something you might be mistaken about. These are just the appetizers. The real memorial ceremony officially begins now." No sooner had he finished speaking than many honking sounds were heard from afar.Then, a line of long, deep black Lincoln cars followed into the sealed area. Ten cars! Thirty cars! Fifty cars! A hundred cars! A hundred luxurious long Lincoln cars were entering, forming a huge circle, and just parking these supercars alone took almost an hour. Seeing the number of Lincolns here made Brian involuntarily swallow. Just one of these cars is worth over five million, and here there are a hundred of them, isn't that a value of five hundred million! Even if these cars do nothing, their mere presence is enough to oppress others breathlessly.
Then, the door of each car opened, and a man in a black suit stepped out.They seemed as if cast from the same mold, each standing upright and stern, their posture and movements perfectly synchronized, the hallmark of soldiers trained year-round.Tristan, standing to Richard's left, used his booming voice to command."Attention!"With a swish, several hundred soldiers snapped their fingers to their temples in unison.The scene was magnificent.Brian was so intimidated by this powerful display that he staggered and fell to the ground.Richard looked down at him."Brian, do you think I've brought enough people?"This wasn't just many, it was terrifying!One hundred Lincoln cars, three to four hundred well-trained subordinates, could a small Boss Arthur even make a dent?Seeing this scene, those who benefited fr
Roosevelt mocked: "You realize your mistake now? It's too late! I wonder why you had to specifically target this area for redevelopment in the last two days, even trying to persuade me to expedite the process. It turns out you and Brian were using the demolition and redevelopment plan to settle a personal vendetta, almost making me an accomplice.""Sebastian, you've got some nerve.Someone, come here and handcuff this scoundrel for me!""Yes!"In an instant, a group of police officers brought by Roosevelt with handcuffs rushed over, pinned Sebastian to the ground, and handcuffed him.Roosevelt turned to Richard, clasped his hands: "Mr. Richard, I am truly sorry. It is due to a leader like me being negligent that the Urban Construction Bureau was associated with such trash, causing the memorial for your deceased loved one to not proceed smoothly. I am really very sorry."Richard wave
Richard explained: "Actually, it's quite simple. Over the past few years in Rocky, I've served in the military, where we fought in many fierce battles. Once, we suffered a devastating defeat, and I managed to save a high-ranking general, who has now become a prominent figure. To repay me, he went out of his way to help me organize this event, even lending me personnel, cars, planes, and yachts. Everything has been smoothly arranged, allowing us to proceed without any hitches.""So that's how it is."At that moment, Serena finally understood that it was all thanks to Richard saving a high-ranking general during his time in the military.She felt a bit disappointed.If only!If Richard were that general, if all these resources weren't borrowed, how wonderful would that be?Seeing the disappointment on Serena's face, Richard knew what she was thinking.But now was not
Darius shook his head: "Edgar, you are confidently blind. You must understand that our James family is only second in the construction industry, let alone that our James family doesn't have any connections with the Urban Construction Bureau. Winning this bid will be very difficult for us.""Grandpa, don't worry, wait and see what happens later."Not long after, the organizer of the bid stepped onto the stage.Vance Reynolds, Deputy Director of the Urban Construction Bureau, cleared his throat, raised his glasses, and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon..."After rambling about a few meaningless things, he finally got to the main point."I believe everyone is eagerly anticipating this bidding plan. I will be in the office on the left in a moment. All those who want to participate in the bid, please come in and present your carefully prepared plan to me. I will make the best choice based on your plans
Late autumn.Dry leaves of gold fell on a broad shoulder.Richard Nicholas stood under the tree, facing the Faculty Office, learning Dream technology."Brother, they tried to harm me. I didn't live. I'm getting older."Two months First, the capital of Dream Science and Technology met. In the unresolvable incident, President Andrew Nicholas carries a massive debt of US$1.2 billion on his back, forced to mortgage the company for Sky Peak to Brian Arthur."Brother, I'm sorry, I have to go first..."Twelve states at night, Andrew Nicholas jumped off the roof and died. On the spot.He is a handsome, talented man famous in business circles, yet he says goodbye to the world like that.Which one? Is it to have one's head in one's pocket? There's a problem with this. It's like a battlefield. Andrew Nicholas is the object of a pitiful sacrifice.In the middle of a gIt's cold, Richard Nicholas takes a deep breath, heads up. Look up at the starry sky."Andrew, I'm sorry, I'm late. Don't worry, of
Eric Edward led the guards toward Richard Nicholas.Three meters.Two meters.One meter!In the nick of time only, a meter from Richard Nicholas. They haven't seen Richard yet. Nicholas heard an explosion when he did something. Two guards flew out in a flash.On the scene, immediately as silent as a sheet."What's going on? What just happened?""I don't know, A blink of an eye, the two of them went out and into a coma.”"Doing magic, what's the rule?"Eric Edward swallowed a sip of saliva, a feeling of fear flashed through his mind."This guy Loh, a monster?""Everybody, No, let's move on!"His guards glanced at each other and rushed forward, raising the electric stick to the head of the tree Richard Nicholas.Richard Nicholas threw his arms up, and a gust of wind swept them up.Then he suddenly lifted his foot, and then he couldn't see anything.Each of his names. All the guards were hit right in the stomach, and the "punching" sound was continuous. Come on.In a flash, Eyes, all gua
Edgar James said that Richard Nicholas was half-hearted, and there were no words to say, so he went on: "But that's okay, Nicholas Family, you have Science Dream. Even if you do, if it doesn't work, come back and starve."Speaking of which, Richard Nicholas looks a little different. Serena James is even angrier.The story of Science and Technology Dream so loud, Edgar James couldn't help but know that Andrew Nicholas jumped out and killed himself, and he said in front of everyone that he wanted to do it on purpose. Insult Richard Nicholas.Others have the kindness to remind them, "Edgar, what are you talking about? Science Dream is already Brian Arthur's. So, what's the Nicholas Family?""Oh, yes." Edgar James looked at Richard Nicholas, laughed, and said, "Sorry, I have a bad memory, so I forgot."He patted his chest and said, "But don't worry, even if you can't roll around, you won't starve to death. A brother like me will take care of you. I see. You're in pretty good shape if you
At this moment, Richard Nicholas' cell phone rang:"It's so embarrassing, and I'm going to pick up the phone."Richard Nicholas walked out the door, connected to the phone. The other end of the line goes to Vincent Scott's voice."Mr. Richard, the document has been passed down. He wants you tomorrow to take over as general manager of three regions and attend the inauguration ceremony."Richard Nicholas replied casually, "you know my personality, never liked such places, the post of minister. I can take charge, but the inauguration is over.""These are the rules of the superior, Mr. Richard, and it's not easy to cancel.""Then let you attend on my behalf.""This is not appropriate? The superior will disagree.""If you don't agree, don't let me take the position of curator anymore, pass my word on to them.""Mr. Richard, don't be angry. I'll go and repeat it."Richard Nicholas hung up the phone. He was about to return. Edgar James happily walked in."Oh, who's on the phone?""Friends."
Darius shook his head: "Edgar, you are confidently blind. You must understand that our James family is only second in the construction industry, let alone that our James family doesn't have any connections with the Urban Construction Bureau. Winning this bid will be very difficult for us.""Grandpa, don't worry, wait and see what happens later."Not long after, the organizer of the bid stepped onto the stage.Vance Reynolds, Deputy Director of the Urban Construction Bureau, cleared his throat, raised his glasses, and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon..."After rambling about a few meaningless things, he finally got to the main point."I believe everyone is eagerly anticipating this bidding plan.

Five days later? By the bank of Willow Creek?Confused, Marsha asked: "Really? You're going to attend Richard's ghost brother's memorial ceremony?""Spit on that! Who would watch such ghostly nonsense?"Edgar rolled his eyes at her: "I'm here for the demolition and relocation project happening in five days!""Oh?"Edgar further explained: "I don't know why, but the demolition and relocation project along Willow Creek has been progressing very fast these days.""In five days, the demolition and relocation work will conclude, and a ceremony to call for cooperation on the redevelopment project will be held on-site. If our James family can collaborate with them, we'll surely make a huge profit!""Elder sister, I'm not deceiving you, not just me, but even our grandfather must personally attend in five days."Time swiftly passed, and five days flew by.This morning, Serena woke up very early, dressed in a black suit.After all, attending a memorial ceremony, one should dress properly, not to
Edric advised: "The James family highly values the individual capabilities of each person. If you still had your former status, or if the Science - Technology Dream still belonged to the Nicholas family, you wouldn't need to say a word; there would be a bunch of people proactively calling you, expressing their desire to attend this ritual.""Currently, no one will pay attention to you like this, so you should save this effort."Richard let out a bitter laugh: "If they don't want to pay attention, that's their business, but whether or not to inform them is ours.""Moreover, I also want to see what kind of attitude the James family will have towards me.""Haizzz, if you want to call, then just call."The first number Richard dialed was the mobile number of Mr. Darius, the head of the James family."Hello? Who is this?""Uncle, it's your nephew Richard."Darius hesitated for a moment: "Is this Richard? Do you need anything from me?""I wanted to inform you that in five days, it will be m
When he was in front of everyone being taken away, everyone instinctively bowed their heads and couldn't look because they feared they would be the next Drake Thomas. Vincent Scott said: "Actually, I know everyone below has a financial problem. I advise people to be a little more respectful from now on. Otherwise, Drake Thomas's results are the result of everyone! The thoughts based on giving gifts close to the relationship, I advise everyone to wake up. The general manager won't like it. You brought all the goods today. Take them all back. One in charge doesn't have to do so this time. If there's another time, I'll never spare you!" People immediately bowed their heads, were frightened, and did not dare to breathe loudly. Finally, Vincent Scott lifted a few bottles of GRAClANO: "Comrade Edric James, another may bring back the offering, but your offering I will take it on behalf of the general manager." "It's my pleasure," said Edric James with a smile. Vincent Scott nodded: "You'
"You tell me, they're all Water Ice people. Why is the difference so big?""It seems this is Water Ice deliberately, using a torn man as a cushion to highlight Drake Thomas.""That's right."Drake Thomas' face was full of joy, and he put the key in the box to hand over to the host.The host carefully placed this box in the middle, which was Drake Thomas' gift. Although the smallest, the location is the most visible.Drake Thomas returned to his seat and crossed his legs."Mr. James, how's my gift?"Edric James's face was pale, and his head bowed silently."Haha ha ha ha, why didn't you all like fighting with me before? Now let me see how you still fight with me. Edric James, I tell you that I will be promoted to Vice-Chief this time, which you will soon be leaving. You must be the same person as Ha's dead son-in-law.."Faced with Drake Thomas's teasing, Edric James failed to refute half of the sentence.He lost to all the attendants.Serena James was so angry that her whole body tremb
