"Very well, since Brother Justin is so gracious, I shall gratefully accept. Rest assured, we will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an answer as soon as possible, to restore your reputation and show the public that you were wrongly accused.""Then I have Big Bro Sean to thank. Now that we've detained David Green, the Green Family will surely catch wind of it and come make trouble for you. If it ever becomes too much, just call me - this is my mess, after all. I'll feel awful if Big Bro gets implicated because of me," Justin added considerately.Hearing Justin's concern warmed Director Sean's heart. He had known from the call that he was dealing with someone influential, and helping Justin was risky, yet he gritted his teeth and came anyway. Hearing Justin's words now, he felt immensely relieved. With Justin handling things, he had nothing to fear.With the threat neutralized, Justin was in high spirits. Just then, a female officer rushed in looking frantic. Clearly somet
"Bullshit loopholes! As if I'd believe that crap, clearly the System just wants to bully me! Spouting such righteous nonsense, utterly disgusting!" Justin cursed inwardly.But with the mission already issued, willing or not, he had no choice but to accept. Considering all factors, he really felt like he'd been played.Right on cue, Director Sean came in to request his help, buttering him up profusely.Left with no option, Justin agreed to assist this once.Delighted, Director Sean immediately entrusted him with the mission, even offering a $100,000 reward if successful. Justin truly cared nothing for such small change, but how could he turn down that carrot when coerced by the stick?After getting Justin's agreement, Director Sean led him out to rejoin the others, who were shocked to see a group emerge from the side room having overheard their confidential discussion. But Director Sean explained Justin could be trusted, and they accepted it, though Michelle still glared daggers at Jus
Seeing her puff up her cheeks indignantly, Justin couldn't help bursting into laughter. Haha, this little girl was just too amusing. Not only was her angry, puffy-cheeked expression kind of cute like a little dumpling, but her outburst over being called little was also funny.Justin looked her up and down roguishly, stroking his chin before murmuring, "Mm, you're right, not little at all. Quite big indeed."Both girls felt something was off with those words. Mia knew Justin's character, and that he was about to start teasing the poor girl again. So she couldn't help pinching his waist, making him grimace in pain but force himself to bear it. He didn't scream like a pig just to save face in front of his woman. After all, kneeling before the keyboard tonight was unavoidable.Michelle also sensed the aggression in Justin's gaze. She immediately covered her chest and lifted her leg to kick him.You couldn't tell from her petite body, but her leg strength and technique were formidable. She
As Michelle ate, she also told Justin about the intel she had gathered. Justin nodded and decided to bring his "secretary" along tonight to witness it, as well as his bodyguard Blood Wolf for protection. Blood Wolf's skills had grown tremendously now. Sneak attacks and assassinations were his specialty. His disguise skills were also top-notch - after altering someone's appearance, even those closest to them wouldn't recognize the person.Just as Justin finished making arrangements and prepared to continue sparring wits with the girl, a man in a tailored suit walked unsteadily by, holding a glass of red wine and looking rather genteel.In fact, he had been eyeing the two stunning beauties for a while now. How could such exquisite girls sit with another man when he only got to look on? So he boldly approached, thinking he might get lucky today."Hello ladies, I'm Oliver Crawford, general manager of Universal Corporation. It's serendipitous meeting you two here today. May I have the hon
Upon hearing this, Justin shuddered involuntarily. He didn't believe for a second this violent woman would give him any sort of pleasurable massage. If it really happened, he'd likely be unable to get out of bed tomorrow, if not from broken legs then broken arms! That woman was always so vicious."Now, now, darling, don't be rash. You really think I'm dumb enough to not see through this guy's attempt to seduce you by treating us to dinner? Do you?""So you have another underhanded scheme brewing, don't you? You're always full of nasty tricks. Out with it, tell me your plan!" Hearing this, Mia's eyes lit up instantly. A sly look also appeared on her face.Justin deliberately tried to keep up the suspense. As he watched the man's departing figure, he said mysteriously, "It's unspeakable, simply unspeakable." "Out with it!" Mia's fiery temper flared up again. Strangely, she was becoming more masculine in certain ways lately.Seeing her like this, Justin couldn't help but shudder again.
"Oh my, what a promising and compassionate young master, so accomplished at such a young age! A dragon among men indeed!""Of course! He's the boss of Universal Corporation, so young and rich, and handsome too! I just wonder if he's married. If not, I'll talk to my daughter when I get home and have her seize this chance. She's over 30 but still quite a looker.""My daughter's over 40 and still not married. I'm even more anxious than you all. No one try to compete with me. This young master is already my predetermined son-in-law. I'll go propose a marriage alliance with his family when I get home!""You...you all!"Oliver Crawford was so angry he spat blood, feelings of aggrievement beyond description. He pointed a trembling finger at Justin, unable to articulate himself clearly due to sheer rage."Oh dear, Young Master Oliver, these are all my friends. Didn't you say I could bring some friends to dine together? Let's head in now then. I'm quite hungry myself. We'd best hurry. My favor
With so many diners, the restaurant hall was nearly filled to capacity. It took several rounds of servings before they finished."You little punk, I'll remember you. Just you wait, after these people leave, I'll make sure you pay."Oliver Crawford clambered up from the floor and glared murderously at Justin as he spat out."No rush, my 450 friends have only just started eating. Why so impatient to talk about leaving? You seemed quite generous before, how come you're so miserly now?"Thud! Oliver Crawford knelt on the ground. That was 450 people! How much would it cost to feed them all today?Of course, his family circumstances were indeed comfortable, with monthly allowances of tens of thousands. But in order to show off, he had ordered the restaurant's most premium dishes, costing over ten thousand dollars for just one table. Now with at least two hundred tables for 450 people, that was over two million dollars! Equivalent to his entire year's allowance gone in one night. If he spent
They snagged seats at the back just as the lights dimmed, signaling the start of the proceedings. All eyes turned eagerly to the stage as a woman in a scarlet cheongsam slinked into the spotlight. Wolf whistles and leers erupted from the crowd at the arrival of the ravishing hostess. With beauty approaching Mia's level yet an added bewitching allure, she captivated the room instantly. Her figure had been honed to perfection, every movement emanating sensual grace. Small wonder all men present were entranced, even those accompanied by ladies.Justin couldn't help but look twice, earning a sharp jab in the ribs from both sides. He quickly turned apology to the girls, lest he be dragged out by the ear.In a siren's voice, the woman purred, "Thank you all for coming. I will be your hostess this evening. Let's begin, shall we? Our first item up for bid..."A hush fell over the zealous bidders, necks craned for a glimpse at the coveted first lot.The first item up for auction was a bronze p
