In the tense auction room, Kerry had to take the brunt of Taylor McGills' taunting. Although she tried to attract attention by showing off her heritage and wealth, the harsh reality of the McGills family's downfall made her efforts backfire on her.Everyone in the auction hall fell silent. Spontaneously, they turned around and saw the young man with the voice. He hadn't attracted much attention during the gathering in the lobby earlier. But now he stood, looking authoritative while smiling coldly.If the others wondered, "Who is that young man? His face is a bit unfamiliar, but I've seen him before, either on television or online."This was not the case with Kerry. This girl was instantly infuriated. Kerry bedfellows arrogantly, while showing off the jewelry in her hands - looking tacky in excess."Taylor McGills. Don't you be so presumptuous. You're nothing! Just a poor scion who was kicked out of our McGilss Family! You have no right to bid here!" Kerry's voice sounded so domineerin
After the van crossed his car, there were sounds of yelling and shouting.Five black-clad figures slipped down the street, getting out of a van without a license plate. They were all complete with black coats that rustled in the wind, face-covering cloaks, or plain black masks. They were sturdy, like martial artists, moving swiftly with shiny daggers in their hands reflected in the sunlight. Seen from a distance, their movements are agile, just like athletes.On that afternoon, the sky was still lingering in the twilight, the sunlight flooding the quiet street where Taylor was overtaken by a black van driven by the mysterious group.The five figures surrounded Taylor's BMW M8. One walked stylishly toward the door where Taylor was sitting as the driver.*Knock - knock - knock*The leader of the group, a man's voice, knocked on Taylor's car window."Get out," he said sternly.He launched the dagger in his hand, then made a twisting motion like a dagger dance. It looked terrifying, as if
"Gabriel Rogers! I knew it would be you!" Taylor's voice sounded mocking.Meanwhile, the man called Gabriel looked terrified. He tried to creep backward haltingly while his dislocated leg was giving him unspeakable pain, evident on his cold sweaty face."What are you going to do? I'll say it again... I'm Gabriel Rogers, the young master of the Rogers Group. Don't try to hurt me!" Gabriel tried to threaten Taylor, but there was fear in his voice."Are you trying to scare me? Don't you know that I'm a needle stick expert!" said Taylor as he pulled out three silver needles tucked between his fists. Her fists looked like the werewolf fangs in Wolverine's version of needles.Taylor sticks out his fist with the three needles, swinging it repeatedly. He is trying to scare Gabriel Rogers, just like Gabriel's gesture when he first stood at his car window.Gabriel's face grew pale. The combination of pain from the sprain, plus fear, made him tremble even more."J-don't try to act rashly towards
After ending the fight on Ox Road by rendering five of the Rogers family helpless, Taylor went home with a happy heart. "Just a bunch of rice barrels; how dare they get in my way with the intention of robbing and harming me!" snorted Taylor coldly.He entered the elite housing complex - Green Hill Estate- late.Every time he fingered the beautiful bag marked "Stevens Auction Institute," Taylor's heart was warm."This Lingzhu mushroom will be very useful for developing a new type of perfume. There will be a lot of people hunting for my perfume designs, so wealth and fame will be imminent!"Remembering this kind of fame, Taylor suddenly remembered the possibility of replica perfumes coming out from competitors, which would decrease the selling value of him product. "But if I want a different parfume, my Alchemy skills need to be at Grade A in order to produce a product that cannot be copied."Taylor decided to ask the system for an increase in him alchemist rank.Upon arriving home, aft
That morning, Taylor was doing some light exercise in the courtyard of his mansion when he noticed a Porsche Panamera Turbo S parked in front of his street. Although the sound of the car's engine was subtle, Taylor could guess that the engine was still running."Strange... who is the owner of that Porsche? Why did it stop, but not turn off the engine? Hm... is he spying on me?" Taylor thought at first. However, he laughed afterward. "It's naive to think that someone is spying on me! I'm not a secret agent or an important official!"Taylor continued his light workout with stretching. Lately, he has been enjoying doing Tai Chi exercises. Tai Chi itself is a gentle movement that coordinates with breathing."Opening with sky pulling and pushing!" said the first step.Taylor was still not out of breath; his breathing was controlled, and sweat had not broken out."Pulling the sky and pushing the earth!""Bird's-eye step!""Turning the wheel!"Tai Chi movements are gentle and rhythmic, focus
What, a treasure map of artifacts from the Sui Dynasty? Maybe it holds the Queen's Eye's two gemstones?" Taylot felt him heart skip a beat. He spun around instantly and gave CEO Rogers a stern look."What do you mean by the Sui Dynasty treasure map, Mr. CEO Rogers? It's interesting to me," Taylor remarked.Taylor's curiosity was piqued when CEO Rogers's expression abruptly brightened, adding to the mystery. "Mr. Alchemist, if you have time, let's have breakfast in the cafeteria, and I'll tell you the story behind this ancient map you found!" CEO Rogers waved the map, which remained in the plastic storage directory, all neatly folded.Naturally, Taylor did not want to pass up this chance. he owned a valuable map that revealed ancient secrets. In an attempt to improve the system in his head, he hoped to discover the twin of the queen's eyes there.China had the Sui Dynasty, which ruled from 581 to 618 AD. There was a golden age of political ambition, megaproject development, and power p
Martin Lewis was staring at the monitor screen on his cell phone when he noticed a small commotion on the first floor in the lobby of the building."Who's fighting? How could that man be alone, yet be able to defeat a security guard who is as far as I know trained and licensed in martial arts?"When the man stung the security guard with an electric baton, Martin Lewis did not worry for his employee but subconsciously commented, "Good! Very proficient martial arts moves. Who is he?"Martin Lewis rushed out of his office and down the elevator reserved for the directors and CEO of The Tenderness. This elevator was designed so the company's elite could quickly move from the highest floor to the desired floor. It differed from the general elevator often used by the company's employees, which numbered more than five hundred people.TING!The moment the elevator doors opened, Martin Lewis saw five Company security and one parking attendant surrounding the man wearing the hoodie."This is int
"Release your hands! I'm not going to be treated like a criminal when I leave!" Now that six security guards and a parking lot attendant had turned to arrest him, Tonny Ma yelled at the top of his lungs.Tonny Ma took offense right away. He gave the two security guards who were preparing to arrest him a heavy slam.***PANG!***Tonny Ma struck Jacky, one of the security guards, out of even more rage.***PLACK!***"How dare you treat me rudely? I mean, I used to be a director of this business. I don't deserve to be treated like a criminal by you lower level people." Tonny Ma's eyes widened as he sent a scornful glance at Jacky.Jacky blushed scarlet with embarrassment at that moment. He glanced at his partner in security, Benny, who was standing beside him.Tonny Ma was The Tenderness's Marketing Director, and he had always taken arbitrary action. He detested lower-class workers and treated them as ants that should be subjugated; he was never cordial with them.Naturally, Jacky and Benn
