2024-01-04 11:56:56In a bar in the red district of Karnaan City.
Uncle Don had just finished his phone conversation with Bobby.
He was the leader of the Red Scorpion, one of the big mafia groups operating in Karnaan City.
“So, this time he wants me to get rid of a useless guy? How dare he insult me," said Uncle Don, then chuckled and drank his wine.
Bobby often asked for his help to do bad things in Karnaan City. And because he knew that Bobby’s father was a wealthy man, he always set high rates.
Usually, Bobby's requests were related to business matters; Bobby asked Uncle Don to mobilize his men to suppress or terrorize his business opponents, or to open a way for Bobby to develop his business.
But this time, Bobby asked him to finish off a man whose status was a trash son-in-law in the Robertson Family?
Uncle Don shook his head. He really wanted to punch Bobby because he felt insulted by him.
If the money Bobby had promised was not extraordinarily large, he would have refused his request.
“What's wrong, Uncle Don? Did the person who called you just now upset you?” asked a woman who was clinging to Uncle Don, deliberately pressing her boobs against his arm.
“Yeah, but he has a lot of money. So, never mind," said Uncle Don, drinking his wine again.
He then put his wine glass on the table in front of him, took out his cell phone, and made a phone call.
“Zake, come to the bar. I have a new mission for you," he said.
…
The next day, at the Robertson Family residence.
"You want to leave now?" Jade asked.
He and Tony were at the front. Tony had just gotten on the motorbike and was putting his helmet on his head.
“The earlier, the better. I have to get a new job as soon as possible so I can pay off my debt to my friends," said Tony after putting on his helmet.
Yesterday, he did tell the same lie to Jade. And to appease his beloved wife, now he went out early in the morning to look for work.
"But, will there be a problem? I mean, this motorbike hasn't been used for about two years. I think you should check with a repair shop first," said Jade.
The motorbike that Tony was riding was indeed an old one. Tony just fiddled with it and, finally, the engine could be started. However, Jade was worried that this old motorbike would act up and endanger her husband's life.
"Don’t worry, Jade. I'll stop by the repair shop," said Tony, starting the motorbike engine and getting ready to go.
"Okay then. Be careful," replied Jade.
Tony nodded. He drove the battered motorbike. The weird sound of the motorbike made Jade frown.
She hoped that Tony would actually stop by the repair shop first to check the condition of his father's motorbike.
"Jade, where is your husband going so early?" asked Josh who appeared and came down the stairs. In his hand, he held his car keys.
"Tony wants to look for a new job, Dad. He has to pay off his debt to his friends," answered Jade.
“Tch! That stupid son-in-law! How can he borrow two million dollars to pay off his debt to Bobby? That's just digging a hole to cover another one. I’ll smash him for sure if he gives us trouble in the future," Josh cursed, walking towards the garage.
Jade sighed. Tony had done what he could to settle things with Bobby. Why can't his family appreciate Tony's efforts just a little?
“Btw, Jade, if your husband comes home without a job, tell him that my friend is looking for a security guard to work at the factory. The salary isn't big, but at least he won’t be a complete burden on our family," said Josh after opening the garage door.
“Okay, Dad. I'll tell him later," Jade responded.
She sighed again. Security guard. So far Tony's work has always been related to the profession of guarding and securing things.
It would take decades for Tony to pay off his debt if the job he did was only a lowly job like that.
Sometimes Jade fantasized about her husband working for a big company, occupying a strategic position, and earning millions of dollars per month.
"Well, one day he might actually be in that position. Who knows," she muttered.
She then climbed up the stairs, back to her room.
…
Meanwhile, in front of a small repair shop, about five kilometers from the Robertson Family residence.
Tony sat waiting in a small chair, watching a female mechanic doing something to his father-in-law's battered motorbike.
A few dozen minutes ago, the motorbike suddenly broke down. The engine died and couldn't be started again.
Tony had to push the motorbike until he finally found this small workshop.
“Looks like it will take time. Are you in a hurry?” the female mechanic asked, without looking at Tony.
"No, I’m not. Just make sure this motorbike won't break down again later," answered Tony.
"I'll try my best. This is an old motorbike. Its condition is no longer so good."
“Yeah, just do what you can.”
Tony somewhat regretted riding that battered motorbike.
He was going to use a taxi, but his wife suddenly asked him to drive the motorbike to cut the cost.
That was the consequence that Tony had to bear for his lie.
And now, if he had to hail a taxi and leave his father-in-law's motorbike in this small repair shop, he was worried that he would only be able to take it back in the late afternoon.
He was heading to the military headquarters in the city. He promised to meet Mark there.
Yesterday morning before noon, after making a two million dollar transaction at the bank using his black card, Mark appeared again in front of him.
As on two previous occasions, he convinced Tony again that the country really needed him to win the ongoing war in the North.
Annoyed by Mark's persistence, Tony finally softened, saying that they could discuss this matter later at military headquarters.
That way, he could at least get Mark out of his way and give him time to sort things out with Bobby.
“Hey, you! Are you the one named Tony, the trash son-in-law of the Robertson Family?”
Someone suddenly asked that question out loud.
Tony turned to his right and found dozens of men with fierce faces staring at him and heading towards him.
Each of them carried weapons, both blunt and sharp.
Tony stood up. He didn't know who these people were, but he knew very well that they intended to cause damage and chaos.
"What’s wrong? Who are they?" asked the female mechanic. Now, even from her position, he could see those fierce-faced men.
“You just focus on repairing my motorbike. Let me handle them," said Tony.
What Tony just said made those people angry.
“Damn! He underestimated us, Boss!”
“We should give him a lesson so that he will know who he's dealing with!"
"Let's just finish him off, Boss! If necessary, we'll mutilate him!"
The man called Boss snorted and looked at Tony with burning eyes. He was like a bull ready to charge the bullfighter.
“Beat him!!!” shouted the Boss, and the fierce-faced men ran towards Tony, shouting and raising their weapons high.
But then…
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The first four men who tried to attack Tony were thrown into the street.

Their weapons were scattered in the street and on the sidewalk.Tony kicked away several weapons that were in his way. Now, he walked straight towards Zake.Seeing his men paralyzed so easily, Zake was furious. He clenched his fists tightly. He grinned and stared at Tony viciously."You bastard!

Go away."Selena looked confused. She looked at Uncle Don and looked at Tony again. Just looking at him, she knew, this Tony was not an ordinary person.'Dealing with him will be very troublesome. I'd better just go,' she thought.Even though she felt bad for Uncle Don, Selena headed towards the door.Tony stepped aside to give her the way. For a moment their eyes met again.

If you die, my monthly income will decrease drastically,' she thought again.Selena left. She walked quickly without looking back once.Meanwhile, Tony returned to the doorway. This time, he continued inside. Zake still stayed outside, not daring to show his nose in front of Uncle Don.“Uncle Don? That's what peop
THE GREAT GENERAL Strong and Feared
The Captain walked towards Tony while clenching his right hand into a fist. His eyes flashed with anger.Tony, meanwhile, just stared at him coldly. He didn't show any signs of running away or fighting."You bastard! Feel this!" shouted the Captain, throwing his fist as hard as he could.Just as his fist was about to hit Tony's jaw, his hand movement stopped. The Captain looked confused. Seconds later, he realized that Tony was holding his hand."I have nothing to do with you," Tony said coldly.He lowered the Captain's hand so hard, that the Captain staggered for a moment before standing up straight again.What was happening made the soldier on guard stunned.Captain Eric was known for having a high physical strength, which made him a feared figure in the Karnaan City military base.But just now, with great ease, the man who seemed to be an ordinary civilian blocked his attack and made him stagger for a moment.Did Captain Eric only use a little of his power, because all he was facin

Eric's jaw dropped. Did he mishear or something? No, he heard it right. Mark said that he would punish him. But why?“General Mark, what does this mean? Why did you suddenly slap me? And why should I be punished? What did I do wrong?” Eric protested.When he attacked Tony blindly earlier, he risked his pride as one of the soldiers with the best reputation at the military base.But now he would be punished, and that was announced in front of two junior soldiers and this troublesome civilian?Of course, he wouldn't accept that!"Captain Eric, are you challenging me?" Mark responded, looking at Eric sharply and coldly.Anyone with enough experience in life-and-death battles would be able to feel the oppressive aura emitting from Mark's body. Of course, Eric was among them.He immediately lowered his head and corrected his stance.“I dare not, General!” he said, realizing that he had offended the most important person in the Karnaan City military base."It's good that you're aware.

THE GREAT GENERAL Incident of the First Day of Work
Late in the evening, Tony arrived at Josh's core family's house. Sasha, who happened to be sweeping the front yard, immediately shouted at him. “Where have you been, Tony? You've been wandering outside all day! At least make yourself useful by helping me with the housework!” “Sorry, Mom. I'm in a hurry.” "What did you say?!" Tony's short answer made Sasha annoyed and put her hands on her hips. But Tony ignored her. He rushed into the house. He was indeed in a hurry. Today he would start to work at a bar downtown and he had to fill in his roll call before seven. In a hurry, Tony, who was already in front of his bedroom door, immediately opened the door. He didn't know that Jade was currently inside, wearing only a towel. "Ah!" "Sorry." Tony immediately closed the door. Just now, he saw that the towel covering Jade's body had fallen because Jade was so shocked. At a glance, he could see his wife's sexy body. Unfortunately, even though they had slept in the same room f

Tony said to the woman."Thank you," said the woman before running, getting out of the toilet.Tony looked again at the man he had just punched. The man held his bleeding nose."Bastard! How dare you hit me! Who do you think you are, huh?” cursed the man.“I'm one of the security guards at this bar. It's my job to take action against people like you!" Tony replied.There was silence for a moment, then the man laughed."You're the new guy? This is your first night, huh?” he asked."Yes. So what?""You're dead! This will be your last night too!”The man was about to leave after saying that, but Tony grabbed his hand and held him back."What do you mean?" Tony asked.Flicking his hand until Tony's grip was released, the man answered, "I'm the manager on duty tonight. You've been messing with the wrong person!”The man left smiling like he had won.

Carl gaped at what Tony said, as did Patrick.Tony was still holding his cell phone. His eyes were fixed on Patrick, exuding high confidence.Frowning, Patrick took out his cell phone and checked what was on the screen.The wrinkles on his forehead increased. He found an incoming notification about the two billion dollar transaction that Tony mentioned.Patrick opened his m-banking to confirm whether the transaction had occurred or not.And apparently, it did happen. Two billion dollars. Such an amount of money just went into his bank account!Observing the changes in Patrick's expression, Carl, who had been filled with a bad feeling, became increasingly uncomfortable.“What's wrong, Mr. Patrick?” he asked, taking two steps forward while looking at Patrick seriously.Patrick turned to Carl, was silent for a moment, then answered, "Tony just transferred two billion dollars as he promised earlier."Boom!Carl's eyes widened. Then he looked at Tony. Disbelief was clear on his face. Is it

“Don't worry, Mr. Patrick. He just fainted," said Tony, turning briefly to Patrick who looked panicked.Patrick sighed. He had been worried that Tony had gone too far. If there was a murder in this bar, he would be done for."Later when he wakes up, he will immediately leave our bar. You agree, right?” Tony asked, looking at Patrick.“Oh, yeah. I agree. His attitude was outrageous. He crossed the line,” Patrick responded.“It's good if you agree. Now, let's talk about what I need to do in this bar.”Tony said that while sitting in the empty chair in front of Patrick's desk. With a curious expression, Patrick sat back in his chair.Tony explained what he had in his mind. He requested Patrick to keep his identity as the bar owner a secret from all bar employees, without exception.And he asked that his duties as a bar security guard not take up too much of his time and energy, because he had other things he had to take care of outside the bar.“Regarding my working hours, for example, w

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 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.

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.

Punishment and Decision
Bernard's face instantly turned pale. Tony intended to punish him? What kind of punishment did he mean?"You still remember everything you said in your daughter's hospital room, right, Mr. Valmont?" Tony asked, moving closer to Bernard.Bernard instinctively backed away. A heavy feeling of fear enveloped him.How could he not? Right now, in front of him, Tony's figure suddenly looked bigger, and it was because Tony was letting some of his war god aura out of his body, blazing like a black fire.And not only that, Tony's gaze was so cold. He looked like a cold-blooded killer ready to kill his target."W-w-which one? W-w-what did I say to you back then?"Suddenly, Bernard started to stammer. He was surprised himself when he heard his voice.Tony smiled, but his gaze remained cold. He said, "Well, whether you remember it or not, it doesn't matter. It won't change anything. Right now, here, I'm going to give you the punishment you deserve."Bernard's eyes widened. He saw the black flames

A Man With Integrity
Jessica parked her car outside the hospital. With a firm and forceful gesture, Jessica asked Tony to get into her car first. Tony did so with a bored face. Jessica got in through the right door and then closed the car door and locked it."Remember, like I said earlier, this will be our last conversation. So, whatever it is you want to talk to me about, I suggest you finish it right now," Tony said.Jessica turned to look at Tony, finding Tony staring straight ahead. He didn't seem interested in listening to anything she was going to say.But Jessica didn't care. She had wanted to discuss this for a long time. This was the best moment she had so far."As you might have guessed, this is about Michelle," Jessica began."The other day I told you that she tried to end her life by throwing herself into the sea, right? Well, she almost succeeded."I say 'almost' because her heart did stop beating for a few moments. Luckily, with my basic medical knowledge, I managed to give her artificial re

This Is Insane!
Bernard Valmont was truly shocked to hear what Tony said. He fell silent for a moment, stunned and looking stupid. But then, he thought that Tony was just bluffing him, because when he thought about it again, what Tony said didn't make sense. So he smirked and laughed. “You bastard! You're trying to play me, huh! How dare you! You think I believe your bullshit?” Bernard scoffed. Tony raised one eyebrow, looking at Bernard strangely. He released his grip on Bernard's left shoulder and pushed Bernard's back with his foot. Bernard fell and his forehead briefly touched the dry and slightly hot hospital floor. "Shit! You're a fucking bastard! You fucking crossed the line, you know that?!" Bernard cursed, glaring at Tony with a flushed face. Of course, Tony didn't care. He just smirked slightly at the corner of his lips. He rubbed the soles of his shoes as if he had just stepped on dog poop. Seeing what Tony was doing, Bernard was really furious. Holding his leg that Tony had broke

Arrghh! My Leg!
Even though Bernard had given his orders clearly, none of the police officers approached. They remained in their respective positions, as if they were waiting for the real order. Of course, this made Bernard unhappy. Would these cops only arrest Tony if the one giving them the order was their commander? It was ridiculous if that was the case! Sweep! Bernard pulled back his robe, taking out the pistol he had hidden under it. He cocked the pistol, then pointed it at Tony. "It's okay if you don't want to arrest him right away. I'll cripple him so he can't escape when your commander arrives," Bernard sneered. Jessica turned and looked at Bernard anxiously. She didn't know Bernard Valmont, but it seemed like he was crazy enough. He could actually shoot Tony in front of these cops. Sometimes people who are too rich can act irrationally and not think about the consequences of what they do. "Tony..." Before Jessica could finish her sentence, Tony suddenly stepped forward, acting

Shit! We're Too Late!
Tony couldn't believe his eyes. Jessica was standing there, and the way she’d walked straight up to him after stepping off the elevator told him she was here for him. “Tony, there’s something you need to know,” Jessica said, her voice serious. Tony stared at her, trying to process this sudden appearance. “Ma’am, please back away. We’re trying to secure this individual. He’s dangerous,” one of the security guards surrounding Tony said. Jessica glanced at the guard coldly, then ignored him. “Ma’am, please stop right there!” another guard warned. She ignored him again. One of the guards was reassigned from guarding Tony to blocking Jessica. This time, her progress stopped. “Ma’am, for your own safety, please stop approaching and let us—” Whack! Before the guard could finish his sentence, Jessica unleashed a lightning-fast kick, a move straight out of a taekwondo textbook, that landed squarely on his neck. The guard crumpled to the ground, unconscious. The other four

It's Going To Happen Soon
Tony slammed the door shut. For a split second, Bernard caught a glimpse of a pair of legs sprawled across the doorway. Two of Bernard's personal bodyguards were stationed outside Erina's room. It seemed Tony had taken them both down, likely knocking one unconscious. Bernard wondered what was going through Tony's mind when he decided to take out his guards. After all, they were in a hospital. "Don't play coy, Mr. Valmont. You know why I'm here," Tony said, glancing briefly at Erina lying on the hospital bed before locking eyes with Bernard again. "Well, it seems you've figured it all out. Honestly, I'm surprised to see you show up at the hospital. I guess I underestimated you, Tony," Bernard admitted. Bernard stood up, facing Tony. His hands were clasped behind his back, his chest puffed out. One hand held a phone. "You're Erina's father? Am I right?" Tony asked. "You're correct. Erina is my only daughter, my only child. And now she's lying here unconscious, because someo
