The next morning, Bruce yawned while following Claudia on her way to school.

Unexpectedly, Zara's anger the night before turned out to be because the stocks she bought suddenly plummeted and caused her a huge loss.

However, Bruce is not entirely innocent either. Because Bruce made a fuss overseas, the domestic market was shaken. As a result of Bruce's actions, stock prices went up and down.

Yesterday evening, Bruce had advised on the current state of the stock market to calm Zara down. Bruce encouraged Zara to sell the stocks she held earlier. Zara then bought the stocks recommended by Bruce when the stock market opened the next day. Zara was initially a bit sceptical but eventually followed Bruce's advice.

Just as they finally arrived at school, Bruce faced another difficult problem. The next problem came from Donna Agnesia. Donna's angry gaze made Bruce feel uncomfortable.

Bruce awkwardly laughed as he greeted Donna and said, "Good morning, Donna."

"Go to hell!"

    Bruce continued to help Donna repeat the lesson for the rest of the day. Meanwhile, Claudia stood aside to keep an eye on them. However, Claudia only said a little during the whole activity. Donna asked what happened to Claudia, but the girl was reluctant to say anything.After class, Bruce drove Claudia home.The next day, Bruce was called into the office by Zara after class."Zara, the stocks you bought rose sharply this morning! That's very impressive.""I think Miss Zimmer bought $300 worth of shares, which means she earned more than $300 in the blink of an eye. That's almost the equivalent of our monthly salary!""Regarding the shares that Mr Elias had bought, there was no increase in price in the morning. On the contrary, it looks like the price will go down."When Zara entered the office, a group of teachers gathered around her to discuss the stock market. People were starting to take advantage of the price fluctuations.On the

    Bruce sped away in his Phaeton. It didn't take Bruce long before he parked his car outside a bar.The Premier Karaoke Place was the same bar where Bruce saved Donna earlier.However, Bruce couldn't understand why the bar always put up a "Closed" sign when Bruce visited.Of course, that sign didn't stop Bruce. Bruce pushed the door and stepped inside.No one else was around, just a waitress leaning against the counter and fiddling with her mobile phone looking bored."Sorry, our bar is closed for business tonight," muttered the waitress.A moment later, Bruce approached the waitress and hit the counter.PLUCK!"Is there a girl around here? Which room is the girl in?"Upon hearing the familiar-sounding voice and question, the waitress swallowed nervously and raised her head."Oh, shit. This guy again! How unlucky!" she cursed to herself."T-That question..."Fortunately, the waitress was the same perso

    Just then, a voice was heard from a private room. "A man should never make a woman cry."All the men in black around them were stunned. A hint of panic flashed in their eyes.Next, a silhouette loomed over one of the men. In an instant, the person broke the man's neck and took the gun from his hand.At that moment, the other men in black realised as they raised their guns at Bruce. Without caring whether their colleague in front of Bruce was alive or dead, they shot him without thinking.BANG! BANG! BANG!The other men in black collapsed to the floor. Bruce patted the man in front of him, who had been riddled with bullet wounds, and said, "Thanks, mate. Maybe you should be a better man in your next life.""W-where are you from?" Archie stammered as he stared at Bruce in surprise. Archie then glanced at the bloodstain seeping from the crack under the door."A-aren't you already dead?"Bruce just shrugged and shot the door frame.

    Looking at the crazy girl before him, Bruce furrowed his brows and gently patted Pierson's neck with his finger. Soon after, Pierson fell to the floor. However, there was still a flash of desperation in her eyes. "Give it to me. I beg you. Give me a little. Just a little. I-I'm suffering so much right now. As long as you give it to me, you can fuck me at will. I-I'm a student. Sir, you can play with me as much as you want. Please give it to me!" Pierson shouted, looking straight at the package Bruce was holding. Seeing Bruce remain indifferent, Pierson roared angrily, "Are you even a man? Don't men like to take advantage of women? What are you waiting for? Give me some, and I'll let you do whatever you want." "Calm down, Pierson. You have to stop." Claudia squatted down and held Pierson's twitching body. Claudia turned to Bruce and said, "What happened to him?" "The girl's drug addiction relapsed, but she won't be able to move after I patted her just now," Bruce replied, looking

    Seeing the two women crying on each other's shoulders, Bruce interjected, "Enough, go home and cry if you want. Crying in an atmosphere like this seems creepy, doesn't it?"As Claudia realised corpses surrounded her, she immediately grabbed Pierson's hand and said, "Let's go.""Go ahead. Take Pierson to your condo. I suggest you call your friend, Sarah, just in case the girl hasn't given up yet," Bruce said with sparkling eyes.Bruce looked at Archie, who was lying unconscious on the floor. Archie intended to dive in and drink the water. Not only did Archie want to get rid of the Jennings family, but he also wanted to get rid of Bruce.Archie would not dare to do such a thing. Therefore, Phoenix and the Waylen family are most likely behind it."I'd let you live a few more days, but you want to die badly. Since we've made such a fuss tonight, and I've decided to end this once and for all, why not speed it up?" Bruce thought."Sarah? You know

    A woman sobbed outside Joy nightclub in Carthage while forcefully pulling a man."Honey, please don't act like this, okay? Let's go home and enjoy our lives.""Enjoying our lives? I'm not willing to enjoy my life with you! I know; I was promoted to sergeant because of your girlfriend!""N-no, that's not true. I-I was forced.""Forced? Really? It doesn't seem like you were forced to sleep with that bastard.""Don't touch me!""Honey. Honey, please, I was wrong!""Hmph, scram! You're dirty. How dare you cheat on me?" The man violently pushed away the woman hugging him while drunk and entered the nightclub.Meanwhile, the woman squatted on the ground with tears streaming down her face. Hatred and regret filled her heart.The woman wondered who had sent the lewd video she shot with Austin to her husband.Everything was unexpected.

    BUCK!A loud noise was heard, and the door of the underground casino was kicked open.Giovio and his men rushed to grab their weapons while staring at the intruder, who exuded a terrifying aura.They were all experienced in fighting. Although deep down they were scared, they still faced it head-on."Who are you?" Giovio furrowed his brows."The one who will kill you all."After saying that, the man immediately attacked them, instantly knocking out two nearby punks with kicks and punches from him."Giovio, this is the guy who vandalised our place," shouted one of the men beside Giovio."He thinks we're stupid? Finish him." Giovio pointed his knife at Bruce."I'll give 1,500 dollars for every slash on his body and 10 thousand dollars for whoever can cut his body. Seventy-five thousand dollars for whoever finishes him off!"Although they heard that the man before him had already destroyed all their places in Carthage, they knew he was alone. For the promised money, some fearless thugs ru

    Giovio's heart was beating fast. When he looked out the window, Bruce had disappeared; all he could see was the Phaeton moving away.Giovio got out of the car and almost collapsed on the ground. Giovio leaned against his car, looking like a madman.Giovio sat on the ground and took out his mobile phone. Gritting his teeth, he dialled a number."Hello.""Mum, it's me. You must be very busy at home. Just sell the farm. Mum needs to rest. I-it's nothing. I-I'm fine here. They even increased my salary by five times for moving bricks."Saying that, Giovio's tears fell."Mum, there's a passbook under my bed at home. I'll tell you the password. There's some money in there. Mum, you can use it. I'm doing fine. It's just that the Field Supervisor saw that I was good at moving bricks, so they transferred me overseas to work there. I might not be able to come home for the next few years. Take good care of yourself. Okay, that's all. The site supervisor

    "You said your evidence was stored in a shopping mall in the centre of Carthage?" Bruce looked at the Masked Fox suspiciously.The woman nodded. "Yes. How can I take those things with me? Of course, I'll find a place to hide them."Bruce thought for a moment."Bruce, I think this woman might be lying to you," Derek said cautiously.Bruce looked at the Masked Fox again."Believe it or not, but I value my life very highly," the woman responded with a shrug."Sarah, wait here. You can call the police and have them come. I'll go with him to get the evidence." Bruce made a decision.The Masked Fox smiled and looked at Bruce. "Young man, aren't you afraid I will attack you if you go alone?""Before you attack, my sword will split your veins," Bruce replied coldly.Bruce pushed the Masked Fox out. There were several cars parked on the roadside by the men in black.Bruce casually found a car and threw the Masked Fox in th

    Roy continued to crawl on the ground. Roy did not have the courage of Dextor, who could kill everyone, including himself, and all he wanted to do right now was live.SLASH!Roy screamed in pain. There were four Soul Swords embedded in his thigh."Release me. Please let me go. Bruce, we are still family, after all." Roy prayed while crawling.Bruce moved his finger slightly, and four more Soul Swords pierced Roy's back."Family? Now you know that we're family? I haven't forgotten how you, the family, treated us, mother and daughter."A murderous aura and a cold feeling, at this moment, everything appeared in Bruce's mind. Four more Soul Swords were stuck on Roy's back."Ah, Bruce. I am guilty. I know I'm guilty; I'm just a dog from the Waylen family. That, those things are not what I want to do." Roy cried and shouted; he was scared.SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!Roy's arm was in pain as four Soul Swords were stabbed into h

    "At that time, you already knew that person was a fraud. Why didn't you expose that woman at that time?" Sarah asked in confusion.Bruce shrugged his shoulders. "Of course, I'm not sure if that woman is an imposter, and if she really is an imposter, and I expose her directly, won't you be in danger?"Bruce walked towards Roy."And I really couldn't find any clues at the time. I'm not sure who was trying to hurt Mr Maverick.""So, instead of looking around like a blind cat, I co-operated. After saving Sarah, I created a fake death scene."Bruce took out the Supreme Gold Card from Roy's pocket."Some things that are not yours will never be yours!" Bruce said indifferently."Son of a bitch!" Roy gritted his teeth, and his hand pulled a gun from his waist.Bruce's fingers moved slightly, and a cold light flashed.A hand holding a gun landed on the ground, and blood splattered all over the floor."Ah... my hand."

    In a villa on the city's outskirts, the morning light shines on the villa's roof."This is the first time I've felt so happy waking up in the morning, and with a glass of wine too. What a nice life." A young man in a nightgown holds a glass of red wine in his hand."Don't get too cocky, Lad. Everything is set. From now on, there is no more Mr. Maverick or Bruce in Carthage.""Everything in the underground world of Carthage is yours."Several figures walked out from behind. "But don't forget who gave you all this. Dextor, Mr Shelton."Roy narrowed his eyes and looked at Dextor in front of him. A smile appeared at the corner of Dextor's mouth as he raised the glass before Roy."Of course I understand. Without the Waylen family, I wouldn't have been able to take down my godfather.""It's all thanks to the Waylen family and Mr. Waylen," Dextor said in a flattering tone,"Feel free to let me know if you need anything!

    Bruce was surprised to see Sarah with a wicked smile on her face."Cough! Why? You..." Bruce vomited another mouthful of blood and instantly fell to the ground.In disgust, Sarah threw away the bloody dagger in her hand and walked to Roy's side while swaying her hips."Mission accomplished. That dagger I used was poisoned, so she can't show her skills now, no matter how strong they are.""You'll be poisoned to death in half an hour." Sarah smiled wickedly.Bruce looked at Sarah and said angrily, "You're not Sarah! Who the hell are you?""Ranked third in the Apol Slayer Ranking, Masked Fox.""Sarah" licked her lips and grabbed the back of her neck.A crack appeared in Sarah's skin. Then, Sarah's scalp and hair were removed. The real face under the mask was revealed. The person had short hair, a sharp nose, fair skin, and sly eyes."How, how did this happen? Where is Sarah?" Bruce gritted his teeth and roared."You

    "This is indeed too coincidental; could it be that someone..." Sarah muttered. Bruce raised his head and looked at the rehabilitation centre behind him."This is not possible. It must have been planned.""Someone got rid of all these people before we could get any information and left us with no leads!" Bruce clenched his fist.Now, all the clues that might have existed were gone. Even if Bruce believed in Mr Maverick, it was useless that he had no evidence to prove that Mr Maverick was not a drug dealer. The court needed evidence!"Then what should we do now?" asked Sarah. Bruce said nothing."Well... we haven't eaten since this morning. How about... let's eat something?" Sarah whispered.Bruce raised his head and walked while pushing his motorbike."Hey, where are you going?""Eat.""Who do you think is behind this? Everything is well planned; the person behind all this is not someone to be underestimated.""And I know Mr Maverick's influence very well. " While eating, Bruce frowned

I heard that something happened to the Sea Queen that you travelled on Yakut during a business trip!""Captain Johnson!" Everyone in the police station was surprised by Sarah's arrival.The two went to the innermost room of the police station where the prisoner was."Why is Mr Maverick still locked up at the police station?" asked Bruce.Bruce says the inmate must be transferred to prison after the first hearing."I heard that because Mr Maverick hasn't explained much, and the police still want to know how many drug dealers there are in Carthage, so he's locked up here for now."As Sarah explained, a gate blocked her way."Captain Johnson."

Did you not sleep well?""I woke up when you opened the door, Bruce. I have installed infrared alarm devices on the walls and all the gates of the welfare house. Once someone enters the welfare house, I will be alerted by the tablet."Leviathan took out a small tablet, which showed the display of some software.

    "Look out!" Bruce suddenly pushed Sarah away.BANG!The bullet hit the ground and left a hole."Again?" Sarah fell to the ground. Fortunately, Sarah quickly held her hands to the ground to balance herself. Otherwise, Sarah would have been injured.Saran wondered why people in Carthage could get guns so easily. Sarah had already experienced several gunshots in a day.BANG! BANG!There were two more shots. Despite the silencer, Bruce could still hear the gunshots faintly.Two Soul Swords appeared in Bruce's hands; then he parried the two incoming bullets—the impact produced sparks."There is one right in front, 1 o'clock direction.""One more at seven o'clock."Bruce confirmed the shooter's location through the bullet trajectory. Bruce looked to the side and kicked the wooden door next to him."Go in and hide inside. I'll get rid of them!" Bruce pushed Sarah into the room.BANG! BANG!Ther
