After breakfast, Justin took the girls shopping around Metropolis Central. As they left the hotel, Sydney Rice advised the girls to wear disguises. Justin scoffed and they went out openly, soon learning the grave error of that decision. Swarms of fans mobbed Sydney Rice, begging for autographs and photos. Justin was reduced to a bodyguard, miserable from the chaos.Returning at last, exhausted with their shopping bags, Sydney's social media had already exploded with speculation about her new boyfriend after fan photos circulated. She boldly confirmed the relationship and posted sweet couple selfies with Justin, igniting even more frenzy. Entertainment reporters swarmed the hotel. The group hid in their room, unable to withstand the madness outside. Sydney's company called repeatedly, unsure how to handle the scandalous news and its impact on their top star's career. But as Sydney was the CEO, they didn't dare react too harshly, politely discussing options instead.Sydney dismissed th
Then Ava stepped forward and said, "Dear, don't be upset. Do you remember what today is? It's the day we first met at the mall. That's when we saw each other and decided to be together. You spent a lot to help me out of difficulty, and from that point, I started liking you more and more. Now it's been exactly one year, so today is the anniversary of when we first met. The girls and I discussed commemorating the day we each first met you every year from now on. What do you think?"Seeing the girls' delighted faces, Justin's uneasiness vanished. He got up and pinched each girl's nose playfully, eliciting protests all around. "Since you ladies have decided, do I have a say? Fine, from now on we'll have a party every year today, counting this as the first one. What are you waiting for? Cut the cake!"Justin and the girls reveled until late into the night. At first still energetic, eventually everyone grew tired, lying on the hill gazing at the sunset, then stargazing."System, can you d
They set off. Outside, paparazzi hounded as usual, but strict precautions and Mr. Martin's bodyguards prevented chaos and potential disaster. After sneaking from the hotel, the girls were exhausted, only Justin still energetic as a cultivator. They arrived at the magnificent Rain's Pavilion headquarters, far grander than Nova City's. "Brother, take a look - not bad, right?""Not bad at all! As expected of your flagship. Very nice." Justin commented while walking around. The décor was tasteful and stylish - calligraphy and paintings by celebrities and masters on the lobby walls, a custom rockery fountain lending refined elegance.Mr. Martin led them to the supreme suite, everything plated in gold. At his signal, servers swarmed to take orders and arrange tables and cutlery, attending to the guests."Order whatever you like, don't be shy. I'm loaded - as long as you're happy. Go all out!"Mr. Martin enthusiastically ordered the most expensive items without hesitation, then passed th
"Hahaha! What enmity lies between us that I should oppose you so? I merely accepted a contract on your head. Kneel now, let me remove that head for my client, and our families can remain at peace. I swear no harm will come to your women if I can deliver your head. That is all I want." "Hmm, let me guess - the Greens or the Lees put a price on my head, or perhaps both families combined their resources. Am I close?""The Greens? The Lees? Don't insult me. Even all their wealth could not purchase my skills. But you need not dig further. I value my reputation in this business. We deal in secrets and trust. Now, any final words for your women? If not, I must act.""Excellent. It has been too long since I've met a worthy foe. Unless I misjudge, you are a cultivator too? Let us test our skills then. My master taught me techniques I've waited long to try. Today seems an opportune time to practice on you.""Foolish arrogance! I've butchered countless cultivators in the Hell's Arena, even for
"Hey, I said you didn't have to kneel if you didn't want to. But did you have to go straight to knives and guns? I hate when people threaten my loved ones, and I really hate having guns pointed at my head. You just ticked both those boxes, so sorry, but now you get a one-way ticket to hell."With a casual wave, an invisible force ripped the Desert Eagle from the stunned brute's hand. The man gaped in bewilderment, never having witnessed something so freakish and bizarre. He had seen many powerful fighters, but never someone so freakishly monstrous. His only thought now was to flee. This target was too freaky to handle. Though his line of work prized success, living to fight another day was the greatest fortune. Even if he could somehow kill Justin in a death match, he'd be dead himself - unable to enjoy the spoils."Run? Can you escape?" Justin scoffed coldly before flashing forward and punching the thug back. The brute crashed into some chemical containers, causing their contents to
Now that the motives behind these shadowy forces were clear, Justin was ready to make moves against them unreservedly. These consortiums owned listed companies, and more than just one each. Fine. If such small losses were already too much for you to bear, then let's make your losses even bigger.Justin notified Sky Finance Corporation about this. Upon receiving the news, Cameron West and his team were extremely excited. They had already made a lot of money last time, and had been waiting eagerly for Justin's reply, hoping for another chance to showcase their skills. But they had waited so long without any news.Now the news was finally here. How could they not be delighted? However, when they heard that their targets were several major foreign consortiums, they grew hesitant. After all, the scale this time was truly massive. Even though they were capable of dealing with a single group, facing multiple powerful enemies simultaneously was beyond their courage, especially when these enem
Justin waved his hand grandly at the girls behind him, "Alright, go ahead and pick whatever you like without worry. We have plenty of time today, take it slow."The girls rolled their eyes at him, then followed the staff inside to start selecting. Each girl was assigned a staff member, who would explain the design concept and details of each gown they passed, including the meaning embodied in them. The girls listened with great interest - this wedding was a momentous occasion in life, so they had to be attentive and careful at every step.&nbs
Of course, these matters were handled by Mr. Martin, who spared no effort to curry favor with Justin. And Justin did like the scenery on the little island. So when he saw the photos, he agreed to the purchase without hesitation. With Mr. Martin personally leading people to handle it, progress went smoothly. The island was acquired with barely any effort. Now with the island, it naturally needed a name. Since it was bought for their wedding, it would bear witness to the fruits of their love. So Justin named it Love Island right there - a rather cheesy name, but full of meaning for them. When Justin proposed this, the girls readily agreed.The venue was settled. As for the wedding preparations, Mr. Martin had arran
