Logan McGill sat limply on the sofa. His face was pale, his breathing labored. He was on the verge of fainting.The events that had just happened to him had left him shaken.With a blank look, he said. "It's over. The honor of our McGill dynasty has ended at my hands. I am ashamed to face my ancestors when I die," Logan McGill muttered with wide eyes. Not long after, he lost consciousness."Father!""Grandpa!"Sarah and David tried to help Logan McGill. They rushed him to Mount Sinai Hospital. The mother and son's faces were as pale as paper. A sad sequence of events had just occurred to them now. Father - the backbone of the McGills Company had suffered a sudden illness.The McGill family home became quiet and empty after the incident. There was no joy in their home anymore.+++Early in the morning, in his ultra-luxurious house, Taylor was already receiving phone calls. Although his eyes were still heavy, he looked at the phone screen and saw an unfamiliar number."Hello, can I help
"Wow, Kerry..." Taylor said briefly, smiling before continuing with the sarcasm."I thought you were kicked out of town by the McGills? Still dare to show up? Not afraid of Mr. Scully sending another bouncer to collect an old debt?" Taylor's face took on a sneering look.Hearing this, Kerry's face turned ugly, but Taylor didn't give her a chance. "Or are you waiting for the Howards to send their best bouncers to take revenge for your affair with the family's daughter-in-law?"The incident of Kerry being expelled from the McGills family after her relationship with Olliver Scully's son when it broke up about this scandal had been heard by everyone in Accomon City. Someone had recorded Kerry being beaten by a debt collector. The incident became a ridiculed subject until the McGills decided to evict Kerry.About her scandalous affair with Eddie Moore? There's no need to talk about it anymore. Everyone knew about it.Hearing Taylor's sharp sarcasm, Kerry's face turned ugly. "Don't say anyt
Gabriel Rogers, 32, is the eldest son of Peter Rogers, CEO of Rogers Group and Company. Gabriel leads one of the largest cosmetics companies in the entire country, whose products are highly sought after by women.Whenever Anastasia Kosmetika launches a new product related to facial care, it always becomes a trending topic and sells well in the market. However, Gabriel always felt that Anastasia Kosmetika's products needed to be completed."Looking at the top beauty companies around the world, they all have one or more perfume products. While Anastasia Kosmetika has yet to launch a single perfume-type product," Gabriel said during a meeting of Anastasia Kosmetika's board of directors.No one could argue with Gabriel's idea. Of course, as the son of the company's owner, he has the freedom to determine the direction he wants Anastasia Kosmetika to take.When a board member asked about his desired perfume concept, Gabriel smiled and replied, "All the ideas have already crossed my mind. No
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
