After Gilbert said these words, Dylan gritted his teeth in anger, “Damn it...”
Dylan pointed his finger at Gilbert and was about to scold him.
“Boom!”
Gilbert instantly raised his arm and slapped Dylan in the face again. Gilbert slapped Dylan and kept backing away. The swelling quickly spread to both sides of his face.
Five clear fingerprints were visible at a glance.
“Curse! Bastard!”
“Hit him!”
Dylan covered his face with one hand and roared in anger. It wasn’t until this moment that the six bodyguards behind him reacted. Despite following Dylan for a considerable amount of time, they had never witnessed him receiving a hit.
They had always intimidated others. When were they harassed by others?
Gilbert’s recent victory over Dylan left them utterly confused and stunned. At this moment, they hurried t
“Also beaten by me.”Gilbert nodded and admitted it again. Upon hearing this, Azalea looked at Gilbert in surprise. Did Gilbert sit in his wheelchair and beat Dylan and the six bodyguards?How was that possible? It was impossible even for a healthy person. Even if he was disabled, he could do what a non-disabled person couldn’t.“Believe in me, Azalea. I can protect you.”Gilbert slowly raised his head and looked seriously at Azalea.Azalea was slightly stunned, and still couldn’t wrap her brain around this. It was incredible for Gilbert, a disabled person, to take down seven adults just with his own hands.“Why are you off work so early today?”Seeing Azalea not speaking, Gilbert gently asked to break the silence.“I just...”Upon hearing Gilbert’s question, Azalea wanted to say something but stopped. For two years, she made time every day to go home and push Gilbert out of the house to soak up the sun.For two years, it had been her habit.If Azalea didn’t come home on time, she wou
It was absolutely impossible. Old Mrs. Cadenn would never believe that Gilbert was close to those big shots. It’s possible that Gilbert improvised it spontaneously to surprise you.“You’re not a fool. How can you take it seriously?” With a little thought, old Mrs. Cadenn replied. It must have been a lie, right? But this is what I saw with my own eyes.. Mae didn’t want to disobey old Mrs. Cadenn, but still couldn’t help but explain. Upon hearing this, old Mrs. Cadenn was astonished again.“What did you see?” Old Mrs. Cadenn frowned and asked.“I saw Mr. Kane of Kane Medicine invite Gilbert to dinner, and my second sister’s son-in-law, Jasper, is a subordinate of Mr. Lewis. Jasper spoke insolently to Gilbert, saying he wanted him to be a watchdog. The next day, they demoted him and made him work as a security guard at the gate.”“Ma’am, this...” Mae stopped then. This type of occurrence could never be considered a coincidence, correct? After hearing this, old Mrs. Cadenn frowned again
Gerald interjected respectfully, “Yes.”Theo nodded, closing the material in his hand. “Then go ahead.”“Take the material.” Theo handed it to Gerald.Gerald nodded and read the pages. “Gerald, I think we’ve been too cautious,” he couldn’t help but ask after reading it.Upon hearing that, Theo shook his head, walking to the window. With his hands behind his back, he looked outside.“Odom is quite high in the management hierarchy now. He’s powerful.”“No one but the general can fight against him.”“Unfortunately, I cannot command his elite army. So, before the general returns, we must be careful. Odom would do everything to obstruct the general from returning. During this period, we must be very cautious,” Theo explained.Gerald nodded in agreement to show that he understood. After all, he knew how powerful Odom was. He couldn’t even rule over all the officials. It wasn’t difficult for him to control the court. Gilbert couldn’t bear to argue with him any longer. Odom could destroy him
Mae opened her eyes for a moment. The card was familiar to her. She’d seen someone display this type of card while watching short videos. Given the high-level status of the card, the owner’s identity was quite extraordinary. Gilbert’s card differed from what she had seen. In the middle, there was obsidian.“Gilbert, what is this?”Azalea had never seen a card like this, so she asked in puzzlement. Gilbert turned the card and said, “It’s the Supreme Black Card. There are fewer than a hundred people who can get the global, limited edition card.”Gilbert delivered the shocking news in a flat tone. “Don’t be boastful.”Mae frowned, asking, “Where did you get this toy card?”“I know all of your possessions.”“There is nothing like this card." Mae did not hide that she had rummaged through Gilbert’s things.Gilbert glanced at Mae and offered no explanation. Mae found the card, but a sticker obscured it. The invaluable treasure was missed. As with many people, their appearances judged them a
The more sarcastic voices Azalea heard, the more resentment she felt towards Gilbert. Azalea believed in Gilbert so much that she thought Gilbert could help her solve the problems. She didn’t know that Gilbert would deceive her once again with a toy card. Gilbert frowned, “Maybe because they don’t have enough authority for this.”“Should we try another state bank instead?” The operator sneered, “Are you kidding me? Even in the city, the bank has 20 branches. And there are countless branches in the Hillwoods province.”“Do you think we don’t have enough authority? Now I wonder what kind of authority you need.” Upon hearing these words, the crowd in the room burst into laughter again. Gilbert’s words were hilarious.“Don’t have enough authority?”“I know what he meant. Based on his appearance, I believe he requires sufficient authority to address his disability.” The others laughed again.“I need to see the person in charge.”“You may not know this, but your representative may know,” G
No one knew what this beautiful card represented. The crowd fell silent as they looked at the serious face of this middle-aged man.Even the operator froze. Jamie Rice, the director of this branch, was a middle-aged man. He also held an influential position at headquarters. He was more than just a branch director, but why was he so surprised?Jamie didn’t have time to worry about others’ attention, so he looked at the card in Gilbert’s hand. While maintaining a poker face, Gilbert assumed this middle-aged person knew about it.“Boom!”Gilbert knew what Jamie was thinking, so he gave him enough time to figure out about this card.“Thank you, sir!”Jamie bowed and reached out with both hands carefully retrieve that card. It was as if he were treating this card like a treasure.Instead of plastic, it felt warm, like a fine diamond in the rough
“Bill... Billions!”“And just the change...”The saleswoman looked and murmured.“Ew! Come on, come on, come on!”“Hundreds of millions; the odd ones are hundreds of millions. Let’s go!”“We can’t stay here. Let’s go!”Instantly, people left, and the room was empty. All the people who had been in a long line exited the room. The saleswoman remained silent, unable to utter a word.The billion was just the change. How could she count that?Even though she couldn’t do that, she wore out her palm. She clenched her hand until she couldn’t finish counting!“Mr. Huxley, I made a mistake. Please forgive me.”Her arrogance vanished instantly, and she bowed deeply before Gilbert. However, Gilbert didn’t even look at her. He didn’t want to talk to
At the honk, Azalea unconsciously tried to lift her head. However, Mae didn’t care at all and kept talking.“I told you, it’s just a toy card.”“You’re so possessed that you’re willing to believe it. Only Mr. Dylan can help you with this.”Mae mentioned Dylan again, but this time with a hand on her waist. “Mom, can you stop?”Azalea looked at Mae, then gritted her teeth and said, “I want to be alone.”“Oh, Azalea, Mrs. Mae, are you all here?” At that moment, a voice came from outside the door. Shortly after, Dylan, dressed in a slim suit, stepped in. He shook his car keys between his hands and smiled faintly. Azalea was filled with doubts upon seeing Dylan. Was Dylan’s car just outside? She even thought it was Gilbert who had just returned, but she didn’t expect it to be Dylan.“Mr. Dylan!”Mae quickly turned and greeted Dylan with a smile. “Yes, I’ve heard that Azalea and her company are in trouble. So I put everything aside and hurried.”Dylan glanced at Azalea and expressed his ser
