Old Wade, who had been feeling elated just moments ago, was taken aback by Grey's words. His eyes widened, and the wrinkles that had momentarily vanished appeared in an exaggerated manner. With a mix of disbelief and concern, he exclaimed, "What nonsense are you talking about, Grey? How can Jayson, a coward, challenge the Saint-Young master to a duel?"Old Wade desperately hoped that Grey was merely spouting nonsense rather than speaking the truth. But Grey, looking disheartened and upset, replied with a tinge of sorrow, "Grandpa, I swear I'm not lying. The news is spreading everywhere that the Saint family and Jayson have entered into a bet, and the prize is none other than Nissan Corporation."Old Wade's anger flared up even more, and he asked with a harsh tone, "And what has Jayson demanded if he emerges victorious?"Grey's face twisted with indignation as he recalled Jayson's audacious request. He responded with a fierce tone, "Grandpa, you won't believe the ridiculous demand that
Jayson was unaware that Grey and Old Wade were heading to the Wilson mansion. Instead, he had quickly hopped into his car and driven straight to the hospital to check on Jao and Sleepy Grandmaster's condition. As he arrived and stepped out of his car, he noticed Elena walking towards him. A shadow crossed Jayson's face, wondering why she was there. "Jayson," Elena called out to him, noticing his reluctance to approach her.Jayson's already somber expression darkened further upon hearing Elena's voice. With a deep frown etched on his face, he asked unhappily, "Elena, what are you doing here? Is your grandmother admitted to this hospital?"Elena shook her head and replied, "No, she's not here. If you want to see her, you'll have to visit the King's Hospital."Jayson stared at Elena with disbelief before reposting her question. "I'm not asking because I want to visit her. I want to know why you keep coming to this hospital," he clarified firmly."Jayson, can we have a conversation?" she
Before Old Wade and Grey could intervene, Elena had already dashed off. Old Wade watched her disappearing figure with a mix of concern and frustration, but he suppressed his anger and turned towards Mrs. Wilson."Madam Wilson, I believe you have the power to persuade Elena to change Jayson's mind about staking his properties. If he insists on jeopardizing himself, then so be it. We won't stand in his way of challenging the Saint Young master," Old Wade said, his expression darkening."You don't need to worry. I'll speak to Elena when she returns," Mrs. Wilson replied, offering a reassuring smile.Old Wade nodded, satisfied with her response. He added, "Mrs. Wilson, should we inherit Jayson's properties, you and your daughter will receive 50% of the proceeds."Mrs. Wilson smiled in acknowledgment but refrained from commenting further. She accompanied them to the door, engaging in a conversation about their strategies and how they would execute their plans.As Old Wade and Grey departed
Mrs. Wilson simmered with anger, caught off guard by Old Wade's abrupt hang-up. She clenched her teeth so tightly that they began to chatter. But then, her gaze fell upon Elena, and a spark of joy ignited in her eyes.Approaching Elena, Mrs. Wilson reached out and gently held her daughter's arms. Elena turned to her mother, her eyes brimming with tears. "Elena, I might have an idea to help you get Jayson back," Mrs. Wilson said, taking a deep breath.Elena's eyes widened with hope as she implored her mother, "Mom, please, tell me. What can I do to win Jayson back?""Elena, what if we reopen the divorce case and argue that Jayson has concealed his assets from you, intending to leave you with nothing after the divorce?" Mrs. Wilson proposed. Before she could finish her sentence, Elena sprang to her feet, cutting her mother off with a desperate cry, "Stop, Mom, please, just stop!"Mrs. Wilson was taken aback, staring at Elena in a daze. It was as if her daughter had transformed before he
Old Wade's face underwent a drastic transformation as Jayson called him that. He was at a loss for words, unsure of how to react. The media team surrounding him was momentarily stunned by the unexpected turn of events. However, they quickly regained their composure and sprang into action, swarming around Jayson, and bombarding him with a flurry of excited questions."Mr. Jayson, can you confirm that you are not actually a member of the Wade family?" one reporter asked eagerly."Until now, you were known as a trash, a penniless man. How did you suddenly become wealthy, like a protagonist from a novel?" another journalist inquired, barely able to contain their curiosity."Is it true that your ex-wife has been pleading with you to reconcile? Do you still have feelings for her?" yet another reporter chimed in, their voice filled with anticipation.Jayson remained composed amidst the frenzy of questions, calmly absorbing each inquiry. Without a hint of fluster, he simply nodded and replied
While Jayson was changing his contact details, his phone abruptly started ringing. Annoyed, he glanced at the caller ID and swiftly ended the call before powering off his phone."Having an excessive amount of money is nothing but trouble," Jayson muttered to himself, shaking his head. "Even those who despise you can suddenly become infatuated with you in the most inconvenient ways."After finalizing his new contact information and disposing of the old one, Jayson exited the phone store. To his dismay, he found Gabby and his entourage waiting for him outside, as if they had been anticipating his arrival.Jayson's expression turned grim. If he hadn't been preoccupied with the problems caused by those greedy families, he would have dealt with Gabby right then and there."Jayson, let's have a conversation," Gabby Willow asserted, taking a step forward with an air of arrogance.Jayson slipped his hand into his pocket, casting a brief glance at Gabby before retorting, "And who are you to de
Mrs. Wilson and Lucy seethed with anger as Jayson spoke to them condescendingly and insulted the Wilson family. The unexpected behaviour left them trembling with rage."Jayson, don't let your wealth make you arrogant. Remember, you were once a dog of the Wilson family, and when we told you to bark, you barked. Being rich doesn't give you the right to look down on us," Mrs. Wilson retorted, her face flushed with anger.But Jayson smirked and replied, "Fifty-three seconds gone."Mrs. Wilson and Lucy were taken aback by Jayson's response. Lucy glared at him and spoke icily, "Jayson, always remember this: no matter how wealthy you become, you will always be the Wilson family's dog.""A minute gone, four minutes counting," Jayson retorted, his smile widening.His words left Lucy and Mrs. Wilson flustered. They hadn't expected Jayson to mockingly count the minutes while they were engaged in their heated exchange.Mrs. Wilson composed herself and began, "Jayson, we came here today to discuss
"What are you doing here, Julius?" Jayson's voice thundered with anger as he confronted Julius.Julius, undeterred by Jayson's hostility, stood tall and replied with a confident air, "I'm here to inspect my soon-to-be new company. I believe in meticulous preparation, you see."Jayson's anger surged upon hearing Julius' arrogant words. He couldn't help but curse, "meticulous your head! Julius, Stop snooping around my property. Let me make it clear, you don't stand a chance against me. If you can't wait any longer, then let's settle this tomorrow."A gleam of delight sparkled in Julius' eyes. He had been searching for an opportunity to expedite the agreed-upon date with Jayson. He couldn't wait to seize control of Nissan Corporation.Julius responded with enthusiasm as if the person being scolded by Jayson wasn't himself. "Tomorrow it is, then."Observing the expression on Julius's face, Jayson struggled to restrain himself from resorting to violence; he couldn't comprehend why he harbo
