THE GREAT GENERAL Josephine Was In Danger
“What the hell are you doing, Tony? Let go of James' hand!" exclaimed Josephine.Rose and the other man were stunned. Jay, although still standing where he was, was now looking at Tony tensely, ready to do something if Tony went too far.Luckily, that didn't happen. Tony released his grip on James' hand. James took two steps back and held his bruised wrist.“You bastard! How dare a security guard like you do this to me! Watch out! You will suffer the consequences!” James snapped.Tony stared back at James coldly. Dealing with an arrogant young guy like James was easy for him. But, right now, he should strongly suppress the urge that he felt."Are you okay, James?" Josephine asked, approaching James."Ah, it's okay..." replied James, although earlier he was wincing in pain. Even now, he still couldn't get rid of the pain from his face.“What the hell are you doing, Tony? These are my friends. They came with me. Now get out of our way. I'm a regular customer of this bar!” Josephine said
THE GREAT GENERAL Tony Saved Josephine, But...
James fell backward. Tony just kicked him in the chest."James, are you okay?" asked Rocky.Just as he turned to look at Tony again, Tony slapped him hard on the cheek.Not stopping there, he then grabbed Rocky's neck tightly."W-what do you want?" Rocky asked, struggling."She is my sister-in-law. Where do you think you're taking her, huh?" Tony asked back.Rocky didn't answer, Tony tightened his grip on Rocky's neck, making Rocky's face turn pale. His mouth was wide open as if his soul was going to leave his body."Hey, what the hell is happening here? How could a security guard do something like this to a bar customer?"The one who asked that question was Rose. She was standing a few dozen meters behind Tony.It seemed like she was recording what happened with his cell phone camera.Behind Rose, Jay walked towards her."Miss, please stop recording," Jay begged, trying to take Rose's cell phone but failing."No way! You should have asked that crazy security guard not to beat up my f
THE GREAT GENERAL How Tony Overcame Rose's Accusation?
Angie, the new manager of The Wild Deer, was in her room, responding to a complaint made by a bar customer named Rose. From the moment she started complaining, Rose was very emotional. Sometimes her tone was so high that Angie frowned and rubbed her temples. Just this morning she was appointed by Mr. Patrick to fill the vacant bar manager position, replacing Carl who was fired the night before. Who would have thought that she would already have to face a problem like this? The customer who complained repeatedly said that the security guard who beat her friends had to be punished, or even fired, if necessary. Angie didn't know who the security guard was. Presumably, the new guy who started working the night before. Later she would ask about this new guy's version once he appeared. Knock! Knock! "Come in," said Angie. The door to the room opened, and Tony, the new guy, came in. Angie asked Tony to sit on the empty chair provided, just to the right of the chair occupied by Rose. “
THE GREAT GENERAL Josephine Realized What Happened To Her
"W-what do you mean, Josephine?" Rose looked at Josephine worriedly."Oh, stop pretending you don't understand, Rose. I already know everything. I know James put something into my drink, and that's what made me lose consciousness," responded Josephine.Rose stared at her. Josephine knew that much? How could that be?In the bar security locker room earlier, while talking with Jay, Josephine was told what really happened. Jay even took Josephine to the surveillance room to check on what happened to her at the bar.There, Josephine saw everything. She couldn't believe that Rose, someone she considered her close friend, could do such a thing to her."What was your plan exactly, Rose? What do you guys want to do to me? Where did you guys want to take me?" joked Josephine."Josephine, calm down... It's... it's not what you think...""Just answer my question! What were you guys going to do to me?!"Rose remained silent. Suddenly, she couldn't move. It was difficult for her to even turn his h
THE GREAT GENERAL Jade's Wild Imagination
Early in the morning, like the day before, Tony arrived at his wife's family's house.Knowing that the front door would still be locked, Tony sat down in one of the chairs on the porch and leaned his head against the window.There was a loud crash when the back of his head hit the glass. This sound woke up someone who was lying on the living room sofa.Tony had just closed his eyes when he heard the sound of the door opening.He immediately turned around and found Josephine looking at him from behind the door."Come in," said Josephine.Tony looked at his sister-in-law questioningly. Josephine left the door open. Tony came in.At first, Tony thought Josephine was getting ready to jog as usual. However, it seemed still too early. The sky wasn't even bright yet.And when he saw Josephine climbing the stairs, a big question mark appeared in his mind. Was his sister-in-law waiting for his arrival?Tony turned to look at the long sofa in the living room. He imagined that his sister-in-law
THE GREAT GENERAL Came To Avenge
"Okay. I'll sleep outside," said Tony sadly. He tidied up the carpet he had laid out, and put the hard pillow back in its original place. While Tony was doing that, Jade looked away, lying on her side with her back to Tony. Guilt started to eat away at her. She shouldn't have shouted at Tony like that. Tony came out of the room. Jade turned towards the door, finding it tightly closed. The feeling of guilt grew stronger, making her chest tight. She knew she should have held Tony back and apologized for yelling at him. But rice had become mush. Jade remained on the bed, lying on her side looking at the curtain-covered window. When she closed her eyes, her tears dripped and flowed slowly. Meanwhile, Tony was now in the living room. He laid down on the long sofa there. He forgot to bring a blanket. Unlike in the bedroom, in the living room, the temperature was lower, and Tony wore a thin t-shirt and boxer above his knees. All night on guard outside the bar, now he sho
THE GREAT GENERAL Arm Wrestling With Your Life At Stake?
The bar erupted when Hammond Starkluson's name was mentioned.Who didn't know him? He was one of the richest people in Karnaan City. His big companies were everywhere. No one dared to mess with him.But Tony barely reacted. He still just looked at Rodrigo lazily.“Raise your hands and kneel! Now!" Rodrigo exclaimed.Tony ignored him. He then said this in a challenging tone:“I don't know what you mean. Avenge for what? What did I do wrong to Mr. Hammond? I've never even met him. Or does this have something to do with that bastard Bobby whose arm I broke?”“Watch your mouth, bastard! You don't want the bullet in my gun to lodge in your chest!" snapped Rodrigo.Earlier the bar was full of roar. But now, hardly anyone made any sound. Their eyes were all on Tony and Rodrigo.“Raise your hands and kneel! This is my final warning!" Rodrigo snapped Tony again.Tony remained where he was, showing no signs that he would do what Rodrigo asked.People started to worry. They were worried that the
THE GREAT GENERAL Arm Wrestling With Your Life At Stake?
Tony just broke Rodrigo's right wrist. Of course, this stunned everyone in the bar.Rodrigo's men responded by pointing their guns again, this time at Tony.Seeing the Devil Sharks mafia pointing their guns, the Red Scorpion mafia did the same.The situation at the bar became tense again. Will a shootout eventually happen?“Control your men, Rod! You lost! Accept the consequences!” Uncle Don warned Rodrigo.Rodrigo, who was still moaning in pain, opened his eyes and turned to his men."P-p-put your guns down... Don't do... anything... stupid..." he said.The Demon Shark mobsters looked at each other in confusion. A moment later, they did what their boss ordered.Uncle Don turned to look at his subordinates, asking them to do the same.The tension subsided again. The bar customers breathed a sigh of relief.“Now, I suggest you take your people away. Don't ever enter this bar again. You're still lucky the bar owner doesn't sue you to pay any compensation. You fired at least three bullet

The Truth
Jade looked into Tony's eyes and smiled. Her chest felt warm. This warmth undoubtedly came from the united support of her husband and his family. She had never felt this happy before."Okay. We'll live here," she said, still smiling.Tony's eyes sparkled, and his smile widened. Jade felt her chest grow even warmer."In that case, let's move in tonight. We'll bring our clothes and belongings from the house. What do you think? Or are you too tired after a full day at work? I can handle it tomorrow. Just give me a list of what needs to be brought," Tony said.Jade shook her head. "Tonight is fine. I'm not too tired. Just a little hungry," she replied."Ah, then let's eat first. I'll cook something for you. Do you two want to join us for dinner, Dad, Josephine?" Tony glanced at his father-in-law and sister-in-law."What are you planning to cook, Tony?" Josephine asked. "I'm a bit hungry too."Tony opened the fridge and checked its contents. He nodded and told Josephine what he could whip
Just The Two of Us
Tony led Jade to his apartment. Jade was confused, but when they entered the apartment complex, she was floored, having never been to this notoriously luxurious and upscale apartment complex before. Tony, however, seemed perfectly at ease in the environment.They stopped in front of the entrance to one of the units. Tony took out his access card and opened the door, further bewildering Jade. In her mind, she tried to guess what he was trying to show her.“Come in, Jade,” Tony said.Jade stepped into the apartment, but questioned, “What’s this, Tony?”Tony didn’t rush his answer. He first closed the door and locked it. Then he stretched both of his arms wide and said, “Starting today, we’ll live here. I think it’s the perfect time for us to physically distance ourselves from your family. Besides, Grandma doesn’t consider you her granddaughter anymore, right?”He finished his words with a smile. Jade didn’t smile back. She was still confused, struggling to process her current situat
Thank You, Dad
At the PLS Group headquarters, just after lunch break...Jade had just returned to her office. Before she could even sit down, her phone rang. She frowned when she saw who was calling."Hello, Dad?"[Jade, why didn’t you tell me about something this important?]Jade froze for a moment, unsure what Josh was referring to."About what, Dad?"[About this insane bet between you and your mom.]Jade’s eyes widened slightly. Now she knew where this conversation was headed."Did Grandma call you, Dad?"[She came to the office to discuss it with me. You have no idea how shocked I was when I heard she’s planning to remove your name from the family registry.]Jade went silent again. She tried to imagine the conversation between her father and grandmother. A question popped into her mind: how had her father responded to Grandma’s complaint?[You’re crazy, Jade. You’re crazy for risking something this big. Do you no longer want to be part of the Robertson family, huh?]Jade sighed. Honestly, she wa
Tell Me The Truth, Tony
Two nurses assisted the doctor as he examined Michelle. His face was a mask of bewilderment. He had treated Michelle when she was rushed to the emergency room, and he was certain - based on his medical knowledge - that she should still be in a coma for months, even years. Now, she was awake and seemingly fine. Her heart rate and blood pressure were normal. The only thing amiss was the faint paleness of her complexion.To be sure of Michelle’s condition, he performed the examination three times. The two nurses who were assisting him exchanged glances, just as baffled as the doctor. In fact, everyone in the room was confused, except Tony.Tony stood with his back against the wall, to the right of the doorway. His arms were folded across his chest, and his head was slightly bowed, but his eyes were fixed on the patient's bed.“This is a miracle. The patient has truly overcome the critical phase. I’m not sure exactly what happened while she was in a coma, but she’s basically recovered.
You're Very Demanding, Aren't You?
The next morning, Tony secretly followed Jade to the PLS Group headquarters. Making sure his wife didn’t realize she was being tailed, he pulled into the parking lot reserved for the directors and executives. As soon as he parked, he called Hayley.[Good morning, Mr. Tony. Is there anything I can do for you?]"Hayley, can we talk for a bit? I’m on my way to your office now.”[Of course sir. Is there anything you want me to prepare?]“No, I just want to discuss a few things with you concerning my wife’s first few days at the company. I'll explain the details when I arrive in your office.”[Of course, sir. Understood.]Tony ended the call. He was now standing in front of the automatic doors of the lobby.When the doors opened, the receptionist realized the man about to enter was the company’s owner. She immediately stood up and bowed her head in deference.“I’m going to the CEO’s office. Don’t tell anyone, especially my wife, " Tony said.The receptionist nodded. Tony didn’t n
My Decision Won't Change
Tony and Jade, who were close to the bedroom door, stopped walking and turned their bodies 45 degrees, turning to look at Tiffany with confused faces."What do you mean, Grandma?" Tony asked, raising one eyebrow."I said you can't leave until I tell you my decision," Tiffany replied."What other decision is there? Isn't it clear?"Tony turned his body until he was fully facing Tiffany. Jade did the same as her husband."Starting tomorrow, Jade will be working at PLS Group and holding a strategic position. She proved to you that she can handle your challenge. And she has told you that she rejects your offer and request to help manage your family business. Up to this point, everything should be clear, right?"Tony said it in a slightly raised and arrogant tone. His facial expression and gaze showed that he was quite annoyed.Tiffany glanced at Tony for a moment, then turned her eyes back to Jade and asked, "Are you sure about this decision, Jade? Are you sure you want to rebel like this
I Win The Bet
Tiffany was in her room, sitting in her wheelchair facing the window.The window curtains were pulled back halfway, making sunlight from outside enter her room, some of it hitting her face.It was clear that Tiffany was seriously thinking about something.Knock! Knock!"They are here, Madam," said Catherine, her loyal maid, from outside the room."Bring them in," said Tiffany.The bedroom door was opened and pushed inward, and Catherine entered followed by Jade and then Tony. Slowly, Tiffany turned her head and turned her wheelchair. Catherine quickly approached Tiffany and helped her so that she and her wheelchair were now fully facing Jade.Jade was currently wearing an office suit that made her look stunning in Tiffany's eyes. A knee-length cream-colored skirt, a tight white inner combined with a blazer that was also cream-colored. Jade's glasses, as well as her hair, which was mostly tied in a ponytail at the back, made her look intelligent."Grandma," Jade greeted, nodding.Tiffa
Jade's Mixed Feeling
Jade stepped out of Hayley's office with mixed feelings. On the one hand, she felt a satisfying joy at finding herself now working at a giant company like PLS Group, holding a strategic position. On the other hand, she was worried, this sudden good thing felt like the beginning of bad things that would come to her later.After all, wasn't this illogical? Was she really recruited by Hayley to be the head of a new division at PLS Group that handles web novels? Wasn't she just having a beautiful dream right now?Those feelings and thoughts were still circling her as she descended in the elevator. After the elevator arrived on the ground floor and the door opened, she paused for two seconds before finally stepping out. It felt like part of her consciousness was wandering off somewhere.In the lobby, near the reception desk, Jade saw Tony. Her husband seemed to be waiting for her. Immediately, she quickened her pace, approaching Tony."How was it? Everything good?" Tony asked casually, rai
Something Good
The next day, at Vermaen Hospital..."Are you ready?" Tony asked, having just entered Josephine's hospital room."Just a minute. I'll have a drink first," Jade replied, taking her tumbler from the bedside table and gulping it down."Where are you two going anyway?" Josephine asked; in the patient's bed, she was sitting with her back leaning against the headboard, playing a game on her phone."Watch out, don't drag my daughter into trouble again!" Sasha said sharply.Tony smirked slightly, saying, "You guys can relax. Today, I'm going to take Jade to a good place. Later this afternoon when she sees you again here, you'll hear good news from her directly."Jade had finished drinking and was now closing her tumbler. She glanced at Tony with the corner of her eye. Her face was full of questions."Well, whatever it is, be careful. You know what I mean, Tony?" Josephine said.Tony didn't answer, just raised one eyebrow."Alright, let's go. It's getting late. Don't let us be late," Jade said
