Henry Richard's ungrateful attitude drove Radley Lawrence mad. He whirled his hand around his mouth, trying to squeeze out a wicked smile:
- Can't you hear me when I say it? How about... Is there a problem with your listening level?
- I have wanted to see the pearl for the last seventy years!
Henry Richard pointed at the pearl with his hand, definitely asking. The corners of Radley Lawrence's lips immediately twitch. He looked at the staff next door, pouting his lips:
- I'm sorry! Our store does not allow direct viewing of pearls if scratches adversely affect the pearl's condition. You can look through the glass.
Henry Richard is a little unhappy to hear Radley Lawrence speak. He flung his face to the next stalls, smiling:
- What about the other guests? Are they violating store regulations, too?
Following Henry Richard's direction, Radley Lawrence saw that the remaining guests were given pearls for observation by the staff in charge. They held them, cherished them in their hands, and nodded in delight.
He was teased, however, still trying to look like he was scolded:
- No, no, you can't do it! Please go away!
Radley Lawrence thinks: pushing aside Henry Richard with his hand. This push by him almost made Henry Richard fall to the ground, making a fool of the people here.
Henry Richard put his hand around his collar, rolled his palm, held it up in front of his face, opened his mouth, and blew a puff.
- Are you saying I have no money?
Henry Richard's voice began to subside. He smiled faintly, raising his eyes more profound than the bottom of the sea and staring at Radley Lawrence. His breath began to grow heavy.
Hearing Henry Richard's question, Radley Lawrence only opened his mouth with a rude smile. He doesn't have to take any attitude so far. A poor, dirty man like Henry who dares to argue and demand. As the senior manager of the city's largest pearl shop, his role and relationship were also in the position of authority, such as how Radley Lawrence would let Henry Richard pass by without hesitation.
Bang!!!
Radley Lawrence swung his arm, directly punching Henry Richard's abdomen.
- Put your fucking eyes away! Don't look back at me like that! Get the fuck out of here before I call security!
Radley Lawrence's punch immediately caught the attention of the people around him. All stop every move, then the probe walks towards Henry Richard, pointing to the conversation. Everyone laughed at him, mocking Henry Richard without mercy.
With his hands behind his back, Radley Lawrence was increasingly pompous, walking around Henry Richard in the most voluptuous manner.
- You see, in this whole stall, is there anyone on your side?
Listening to him, all the employees and customers in the store turned their heads and did not hesitate to intervene. Henry Richard stood still, watching Radley Lawrence play his part as calmly as he could.
This place is so different from Lotus Flower. In his Lotus Flower empire, the people loved and united. The two words "unusual" were never allowed to exist in their way of life.
The more he think, the more Henry Richard felt sorry for Radley Lawrence with the people here. He sighed, utterly despondent at their contemptuous behavior.
- Hey, manager, I think you're a little out of line!
From behind, a girl dressed elegantly with a beautiful face gently parted the crowd. As soon as the girl's innocent gaze passed on Henry Richard, he suddenly felt something familiar.
- Everyone who comes to this store is a customer. You are an employee who needs to be responsible for respecting and meeting their requirements!
Radley Lawrence's expression immediately narrowed as the girl's voice rang out. Well, he's despised by a woman, pretending to be a man's self-respect.
Radley Lawrence did not say no, stepped up to the bar in front of the girl, then pushed her back with his hand.
Following the inertia, the girl lost her momentum and fell to the ground. Just as Henry Richard reacted quickly, he immediately reached out and pulled the girl firmly into his chest. The four eyes looked at each other, and the thought suddenly became complicated.
- Thank you.
The girl nodded gently toward Henry Richard. He didn't land, plodding towards Radley Lawrence, kicking his face hard. Radley Lawrence was lost, unable to resist. His mind immediately darkened and rolled a few turns on the ground.
This step by Henry Richard caused Radley Lawrence to ache to numb, fresh blood dripping from his nostrils, seeping into his mouth.
- Call security!
The rest of the staff urgently shouted. The situation at this time became highly panicked.
- How dare you hit me?
Radley Lawrence wiped his mouth with his hand, realizing that his nose had been crushed and that Henry Richard's shoes had cut a long way on his cold cheek.
Henry Richard always used to put a razor under his thick base for self-defense. Therefore, with only the last kick, Radley Lawrence was naturally seriously injured.
- How dare you hit a woman? What a shame!
Henry Richard Grasped his teeth, gently stroking his hair. His eyes became more and more dangerous, making his opponent temporarily shiver.
Now, Radley Lawrence discovered that he had accidentally confessed to someone who was no joke. The guards quickly surrounded Henry Richard. Everyone was aggressive, waiting for orders to come in and teach him a lesson.
The situation became highly chaotic. Both sides attacked and threatened each other. After the last counterattack, Radley Lawrence was also more frightened.
- Radley Lawrence, what's going on?
From the top floor, a tall figure quickly came down. After receiving the news, the pearl shop manager rushed to find out.
Radley Lawrence noticed that his rescue had arrived and hurried to his feet, hurriedly making an announcement:
- Mr. Enda Douglas has no money to come here and ask for pearls. I'm warning you, and you're playing a game of defiance!
- You shut up! I extracted the camera, and you were the one who started the fight!
Enda Douglas gave a voice's rest, slapping Radley Lawrence's cheek with his hand. The evidence was right in front of his eyes, and he dared to deny it.
Fearful Radley Lawrence, at once, bowed his head, unable to speak again.
- Sir, I'm very sorry that our staff was rude to you. As compensation, our store will give you a fifty percent discount on this transaction.
Enda Douglas' sincere attitude also made Henry Richard feel more comfortable. He glanced sideways at Radley Lawrence with a pale smile on his lips. Henry Richard pointed to the pearl and coldly replied:
- Get me this jewel. You don't need a discount, and you swipe the card!
Henry Richard put his hand in his pocket, took out his black card, and gave it to Enda Douglas. Enda Douglas politely picked it up, then asked the other staff to wrap it carefully. Because pearls are precious, their wrapping moves are also slow.
As soon as the employee brought Henry Richard's black card to pay for it, the long-running number line on the computer screen surprised them, and they could not believe what their eyes saw.
The balance on Henry Richard's black card has reached fifteen figures. Indeed, it is impossible to judge others by their appearance alone.
After about half a voice, the pearl belonged to Henry Richard with a lifetime of up to seventy years. He picked up the small box, carefully grasped the handle, then sauntered in front of the respectful eyes of many people.
Henry Richard had just walked a few steps and saw the girl who had helped him standing right before him. Now, he can look at his face very closely. Purely beautiful appearance, long hair hanging over bare shoulders, aristocratic manners, may have come from a family.
Henry Richard wanted to thank you for what happened before. He gently stroked his hair and walked in front of her with a friendly smile:
- Hello. I appreciate your help.
Hearing that, the girl leaned her head back to look at him, her face as beautiful as if she were not smiling, indifferently to reply:
- Oh, I'm just itching to see what he's doing!
The girl turned away and was immediately stopped by Henry Richard standing up.
- Hey, girl! May I have your name, please?
Henry Richard's standing posture is very unkind right now. He raised his hands in front of her, and his lips grew sensibly. If outsiders look at him, he will think he is an eager thug trying to seduce and tease the girl.
- Get out, of course!
The girl gritted her teeth.
The more proud Henry Richard was, the more teasing he became. He won't let him go if he can't ask his name today.
The girl raised her lips in a cold smile, then used her strength to contract her legs and stepped on Henry Richard's foot hard. Despite the pain, Henry Richard tried to remain calm as best he could. He let her do whatever he wanted on her feet, and his eyes never left her. She shouted:
- Get out!
After nearly ten minutes of no one giving in, Henry Richard finally let her go. He closed his hand and scratched his nose, a little disappointed:
- Thank you anyway!
The girl walked directly past him. She waited for five paces away from Henry Richard, and then she said:
- Layla Smith!
Layla Smith? Is that girl named Layla Smith?
Henry Richard muttered in his mouth, then looked at her shadow, his lips twitching slightly.
When he got back, Walter's villa was closed. The deep dark sky finally rained heavily, pouring water on Henry Richard's shoulders. He pressed the doorbell with his hand, but butler Raymond hurriedly covered his umbrella.
- Master Walter, you're going on business?
Henry Richard laughed, didn't answer, and quickly scrambled inside. Clara Walter was asleep a long time ago. Perhaps, the incident that happened before made her wary of him, and the door was also strengthened.
Henry Richard put the pearl box on the table, took off his shirt, and rested. Tomorrow they'll be at the longevity party, afraid those rich people will undoubtedly continue to play tricks on him.
That Henry Richard didn't worry too much. He sees them as flies swarming around, shaking their hands and chasing them straight away.
After a good night's sleep, Henry Richard woke up at eight o'clock the following day. He stretched his shoulders, adjusted his hair, picked a nice, agile suit, and walked downstairs. Clara Walter and her parents were waiting in the living room. As soon as she saw him, Clara Walter immediately raised her hand, pointing to Henry Richard's accusation: - Father, you must help me. Last night, he dared to sneak into my room and steal more than a million dollars in cash. Mr. Walter's usual gentle face has fallen into disrepair. So far, he hates people who are petty thieves. Therefore, as soon as he opened his eyes, hearing Clara Walter sobbingly confessing to his husband, Walter was distraught. He pointed down to the empty seat next to Clara Walter, raising his face to Henry Richard: - Sit down! Henry Richard was still bewildered, unable to understand what had happened. Clara Walter went on to say aloud: - At 7:00 last night, he smashed my door and forced me to give him the money. I d
Boom!!He had just finished speaking. A tremendous amount of power knocked down the warehouse door, and the smoke flew around.Henry Richard stared at the people in front of him, his face cold and cold:- Let's see how long you can laugh!Henry Richard looked at the waste bucket that was still right next to Leighton Mark, stepped directly up to the barrier in front of him, then grabbed the waste bucket and collapsed on Leighton Mark's head.- Damn it, Henry Richard! What are you doing?Leighton Mark had just finished speaking, and before he could be determined, he was immediately punched hard in the stomach by Henry Richard's stiff feet. The pain immediately spread, causing him to get dizzy and fall flat.- That's the question I should be asking you. How was it? Not a horrible taste of waste, is it?The people next to me didn't dare to speak up. They couldn't believe Henry Richard was so weak, so weak, so insignificant, and now he knows martial arts, and he's become a completely diffe
Clara Walter took the paper suspiciously, still grumbling:- what are you going to do again?However, as soon as she read the first lines, Clara Walter's eyes suddenly darkened.- What? A divorce application?Her shocked the whole family, including Walter, who could not believe his ears. Mrs. Walter rushed to her daughter's side and snatched the divorce papers back.So far, Henry Richard doesn't have to pretend. He smiled faintly, his handsome face having ten wicked parts:- That's right, you're not blind! Clara Walter, let's get a divorce!Henry Richard... How dare he divorce?Clara Walter grinned at her belly like she heard Henry Richard's joke in her ear. However, his attitude towards him was extremely calm and a bit of a joke. Henry Richard is trying to tease Clara Walter, to turn her around like a pinwheel in the palm of his hand.Mr. Walter is the calmest man. He called Henry Richard up to stand beside him, earnestly asking him again:- Do you want a divorce?Henry Richard immed
The palace Lotus Flower is spacious. Its objects are finely carved and gold-plated, its people are crowded, and it's right arm is tattooed with the Phoenix bird, the symbol of the Lotus Flower empire.Returning to his place in charge this time, Henry Richard felt extraordinarily relaxed and relieved. He walked straight into the room, hitting a good deep sleep. However, because he was sleeping in the car earlier, Henry Richard only slept for a moment and woke up.Mr. Conal has been standing by waiting for him. As soon as he opened his eyes, Conal Joshua bowed his head with reverence:- Master, a lady Smith here!Layla Smith?She couldn't wait, came here to see him right away?Henry Richard, changing his clothes, asked in question:- Was she alone?- Yes, Lady Smith is with five other men!Conal Joshua answered quickly.Henry Richard frowned his eyebrows tightly. His button-up movement also stopped. His sharp eyes grew more and more silent.Layla Smith is standing in front of the God of
Layla couldn't believe what she was hearing. She was so astonished that her eyes went wide, and she stared at Henry without blinking."Henry, are you... are you serious?"He tilted his head slightly, looking at her with a half-closed eye:"Is there a problem with your listening comprehension? Or else, get going, I will devour you right here and now!"Layla's tears of joy fell. With Henry's help, the journey to find her father would be much smoother.Actually, Henry was not as tyrannical as rumored. He no longer forced Layla to offer herself to him, instead, he changed his mind and wholeheartedly helped her.When Henry was young, Barrett was the one who saved his life. At the age of ten, Henry nearly drowned in a lake. Thanks to Barrett William's rescue, Henry survived.He owed Barrett a debt, so he would repay it to his daughter in the most worthy way.After Layla left, Henry quickly entered the bathroom, pouring cold water over his body to clear his mind."Layla?!"Mervyn had been pa
Henry's destination was a condominium area reserved for the Armstrong family. Though called a condominium, the Armstrongs lived concentrated in a forest, clearing trees, flattening the jungle to transform it into their own condominium.Mentioning the Armstrong family refers to the famous real estate trading corporation in the country. However, this group was secretly transporting opium, importing banned substances, growing richer and richer. Henry, although aware, chose to turn a blind eye as Lotus Flower has a rule not to intervene in the affairs of the wealthy.However, the Armstrongs made a grave mistake by offending Henry and the Lotus Flower. Henry's working principle is water does not interfere with well water. But if they have offended him, they will surely meet a tragic end.The head of the Armstrong family is Stephen Armstrong, the CEO of the Vomart conglomerate. Upon hearing that Henry himself was coming, he merely sneered. If it comes to age, Henry is still a full ten years
Suddenly, Henry's composed face became inscrutably deep. He walked towards his car, stretched his shoulders gently, then raised his face to ask his subordinate standing at attention beside him:"Is everything arranged properly?"The subordinate immediately nodded vigorously:"All set, Young Master!"Henry didn't drive away immediately. He leaned back in his seat, curled his lips into a silent chuckle, occasionally glancing at a timer.Stephen, indulging with two girls in the bedroom, suddenly received news that Henry's convoy hadn't left yet. Curious and furious, he hurriedly dressed, intending to go outside and confront them. Suddenly, a major incident occurred at the mansion next door to the Armstrongs.The sound of an explosion thundered through the air, dust and smoke filled the atmosphere, and flames engulfed an area in bright red fire. The large mansion was instantly blown to pieces, bricks and soil scattered in disarray. The fire spread to the remaining Armstrong mansions, caus
Henry scuffed his feet against the plane's side, speaking sarcastically. Layla, sitting in the row behind, stood up, stepped next to him, and softly asked:"From here to Mountainview's prime location, how much more time do we need?"Henry glanced at Layla, thought for a moment, then answered:"Seven days, six nights. If I remember correctly. That's if the path is clear, and the weather doesn't mock us like this!"Following his gaze, Mervyn and Conal also looked out of the airplane window. The dark forests, with trees as tall as five-story buildings and dense foliage, seemed like they wanted to engulf everything within.Layla shivered involuntarily, her hands clutching tightly onto the small, now yellowed photograph of her father.The heavy rain poured down for more than an hour before it stopped. By the time the weather cleared, it had already turned dark. They all decided to spend the night on the plane and start heading into the Mountainview forest early the next morning.Santiago W
