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

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

“Break my leg?”“So, I can sit in a wheelchair like you, right?”“Haha!”Dylan laughed, leaned slightly, and shook in front of Gilbert, imitating his wheelchair posture.“I’m telling you. Even if you have something, it won’t work.““In this society, speak with money and power. And you have none of them.”Remember, Azalea will be and can only be mine. The only option is to leave the Cadenns and become a street beggar.Dylan looked down at Gilbert, laughing coldly.“Maybe when the time comes, I’ll throw you another piece of stale bread, haha.”Gilbert’s eyes froze, and the next second he raised his arms.“What are you doing, loser?”At that moment, Mae came out the door and yelled at Gilbert.“Mrs. Mae, I helped Azalea, so he tried to hit me,” Dylan immediately stepped back and said with a mocking smile.Gilbert slowly turned his head and looked at Mae.Then he turned his gaze to Azalea, who was standing behind Mae. Azalea also looked at Gilbert, but her eyes were filled with disappoint

Azalea gave Gilbert a serious look while biting her lip. Gilbert paused for a moment and calmly replied, “The money was mine, and I stole nothing from him.”“How can you have so much money? This... This is impossible!” Exclaimed Azalea, shaking her head in disbelief.“Money is just a number to me,” Gilbert responded calmly.As he spoke, he remembered his days as a Major General with Nine Stars. He was in command of tens of thousands of fearless fighters. One could barely imagine the number of resources needed just to maintain that formidable combat force. In a battle, the number of resources could easily double. However, after winning their battles, the loot would be extremely rewarding for them. Therefore, money was nothing to Gilbert.“Just take the money. Look, it was got through legal means, so you don’t have to worry about it,” Gilbert explained as he stared at Azalea.“But Dylan has already taken the money...” Azalea murmured with her head down. It seemed like she had been hones

“Let’s only talk about this when the dead man can stand up and take care of himself,” Azalea replied with a firm look.“Look, I won’t be frustrated if he’s at least successful at something. Anyway, my decision is final. We will not permit him to enter our house today.”Mae stood in front of the door with her arms outstretched, looking incredibly bitter. Her family had become the laughingstock of the neighbourhood for two years, so she didn’t care if her neighbours judged her for another day. She believed her life would improve as long as she could send Gilbert away.As the neighbours watched the unfolding drama, they all looked at Gilbert mockingly. They thought to themselves, “Wow, Gilbert will be homeless if they kick him out today.”“Well, what choice does he have? I mean, he can only blame hi

He hadn’t processed what he had heard.Christian pondered for two seconds, then growled and said, “Didn’t you hear what Mr. Huxley said?”“Shut your mouth, you useless piece of garbage!” Christian pointed at the bodyguard and shouted in anger.“Yes, yes, yes...” The bodyguard hurriedly nodded. He then raised his palm and slapped his mouth hard.“Again.” Gilbert’s expression and tone remained indifferent.“Slap!” Christian followed with a shout.The snapping sound echoed. The bodyguard trembled and slapped himself again.“Slap again!”“Slap!”The bodyguard continued hitting his mouth. Everyone witnessed the total scene. Gilbert only needed to instruct Christian on what to do, and the seasoned crimelord could only obey

After pondering it, Mat reached out his hand to Azalea. “Where is the card? Let me see it.”“I don’t have it. I returned it.” Azalea shook her head and spoke.“Hmph! Why did you return it?” Mae paused for a moment before asking again, “Was there money on the card?” She was clearly very concerned about the answer.Azalea said as she lifted her head, “There was.”“There was a million dollars.”Just as Azalea finished speaking, Mae burst into laughter and said, “Are you telling me that beggar has money? Not bad, he saved a hundred dollars!”“Mom, I said a million dollars, not a hundred!” Azalea shook her head as she repeated.“What?” Mae’s laughter abruptly stopped, and she gave Azalea an incredulous look.“A million? Did you say he has a million dollars?”When Ma

Christian had told no one about this private matter. Every time he received treatment for his syphilis, he did it in another city far from the city.

When he consulted Scott, he had put his last hope in alternative medicine.The Kane family was in the herbal medicine business, and they knew many renowned alternative medicine doctors. Even when consulting Mr. Kane, Christian did not reveal his true condition. He did not expect Gilbert to deduce his condition even before saying anything. That made Christian feel extremely touched and excited. Could there be a cure for him?“Mr. Huxley, you must help me!”At that moment, Christian revered Gilbert. The way Gilbert appeared to be young before did not completely convince him. Now, he no longer dared to have any contempt.“Mr. Huxley, you know that I have relationships with a lot of women.” Should this illness remain untreated, I will take
