"Merely with the Golden Dragon card, everyone in the restaurant left without exception, including the manager and all the staff. They went back home, but some mischievous ones hid behind the restaurant and in the tall bushes near the parking lot. They were also curious about the danger Boris mentioned earlier.Boris was asked to call Sofia, making sure she'd send a special team to sabotage all police channels around the capital city's borders."Miss Sofia, it's Boris from Golden Dragon's Division Two. Zero and I are in an unfavorable situation. Zero requests that Miss Sofia orders our members guarding the city borders to come to the police station."Zero says the police station needs to know that a two-kilometer radius from Cliff Inna is a dangerous area, and only Golden Dragon's military personnel are allowed to enter that territory.""Bravo, Boris, I'll do it. But I want to make sure of one thing...""What is it, Miss?""Are you sure you can handle Greg without needing help from oth
“Andre, I just got a directive from General Zhang Ze. He wants you to withdraw a few hundred dollars at the ATM I gave you a while back. Head to Platina Bank in the city center. After that, find the luxury villa that will soon be your new residence.”Just as he was about to close his eyes, his phone rang, and Sofia quickly issued her instructions.“Hmm, I’m still sleepy. Can’t it wait until later in the afternoon?” Andre yawned, exhausted from a sleepless night.“General Zhang Ze wants you to leave right away. I recommend the Phoenix Villa, located in the luxurious Heaven Garden complex.”“Damn! Fine. I’m on my way.”With swollen, tired eyes and wearing Boris’s wrinkled shirt that hadn’t been ironed, Andre left without waking Boris, who was still snoring away. Sofia sent the location coordinates of Platina Bank.“That’s strange. Why is there only one Platina Bank in the capital? Shouldn’t there be at least three or four branches? And why did General Zhang Ze give such a sudden order!?
The wealthy patrons around them burst into laughter.“Well, well, what joke is this? You want to make a withdrawal at Platina Bank? Please, this bank is exclusively for clients with assets of at least 20 billion. Wow, it’s still early in the morning, but we’ve got a comedian here looking for some spare change!”Intan furrowed her brows but refrained from mocking Andre out of embarrassment.After all, Andre was her ex-husband, even if they were divorced. He had once been a part of the Randana Family, and this incident was once again making Intan lose face before Claudia and several billionaires who were also there to withdraw money.“Remember, we’re not involved anymore. If I find out you’re following me, I won’t hesitate to call the police. Then you’ll be arrested, imprisoned, and dealt with!”Andre was baffled by how arrogant wealthy people could be.He calmly repeated his purpose. “Not at all. Why would I waste my time tracking someone like you? It’s pointless. Once again, I’m here
Bella walked over to Andre, whose clothes looked even more tattered after being gripped by two security guards, and held up the card she had picked up. “Is this your card?”Andre didn’t answer right away. He was captivated by Bella’s beauty, which he thought rivaled that of Kristal.“Sir, please answer my question…”“Y-yes, that’s my card. Is something wrong?” Andre tried to shake off his nervousness, though he came across a bit cold.Once again, Bella’s eyes widened in shock. She immediately bowed to a full ninety degrees, apologizing to Andre in a soft voice.“I—I apologize for my subordinates’ rudeness. Things got out of hand. I am truly sorry.”Seeing Bella bow, everyone there began to rack their brains. Just what was so special about this man named Andre that he could command the respect of the director of Platina Bank?“Oh, is that so? Weren’t your subordinates just trying to throw me out? It’s fine; I accept it. After all, my card couldn’t be identified,” Andre replied nonchala
Andre smiled in triumph. He didn’t have to waste his energy arguing with these arrogant rich folks. He was lucky Bella had taken his card; otherwise, he would surely have been humiliated and thrown out yet again.Claudia’s pleas and attempts to curry favor with Bella proved futile.Bella felt not an ounce of sympathy for her. Instead, she took Andre’s hand and led him into her private office.After typing away on her computer for a while, Bella finally smiled. “Mr. Andre, this card is indeed registered to you, with a balance of 20 trillion. Any further information will be provided to you later by Ms. Sofia.”“Hmm, interesting,” Andre replied.“Is there anything else I can assist you with?”“Yes. Please prepare a regular bank card for me, without any Platina branding, and load it with four trillion.”Platina Bank held full authority over all national banks, with the power to issue any type of card. After transferring the balance, Andre returned to the Division Two headquarters, waking
Boris and Andre both wore dark sunglasses. If Boris were to take his glasses off, Daniel would recognize him instantly. They disguised themselves to see how Daniel would treat his guests. All of this was because Heaven Garden, the luxurious villa complex, was in collaboration with Golden Dragon for property and secret base development. General Zhang Ze had ordered them to conceal their identities for the visit.Ding!A message arrived on Boris’s phone as he walked a few steps behind Daniel. It was from Sofia, and Boris promptly handed the phone to Andre.“The General wants to test how professionally Daniel handles guests. If he disrespects visitors, General Zhang Ze won’t hesitate to cut ties. And tell Andre not to flaunt the Platinum Black Card unless Daniel’s behavior really gets out of hand.”Andre nodded as he read the message.Noticing that his two guests were trailing behind, Daniel turned around.“Come on, let me show you the ultra-luxurious villa you requested. But once again,
“Hmm?” Andre looked down at Daniel, indifferent.For the last three years, he had endured the taunts and scorn of the Randana Family and even ridicule at his workplace, where he was treated as a parasite.Now was his chance to put anyone who dared demean him back in their place.“Forget just Phoenix Villa—I could buy up all of Heaven Garden’s assets in an instant if you were willing to sell them!” Andre raised his voice, proving he held the upper hand here.“I sincerely apologize for my poor behavior, sir. I didn’t realize you were the legendary Zero. It’s an honor, as the owner of Heaven Garden, to host you, Sir Zero, who’s known so widely among the billionaire circles.”Andre calmed Daniel, pretending to be angry only to make the man understand who he was speaking with.Daniel, Andre, and Boris took a tour, enjoying the panoramic views from the villa’s third floor.
Steve intended to make Phoenix Villa their home and host their wedding reception there with Intan. But that dream was short-lived.“It’s been a while; you look well, Mr. Steve,” greeted Daniel.“Hahaha… you’re as friendly as ever. I’m in good shape thanks to regular exercise. I took your advice and built a futsal court in my villa’s backyard.”“It’s rare for you to drop by unannounced. Is there a particular reason, sir?” Daniel asked.Mr. Steve and his wife took a seat in front of Phoenix Villa, while Intan waited by the car with her younger sister. As usual, Intan looked elegant in her maroon gown, flanked by four bodyguards in two Jeeps.As Daniel had mentioned, every billionaire who came here was escorted by at least three bodyguards.Daniel began to worry that Steve Rockshaw intended to buy Phoenix Villa, as it had just been purchased by one of the most prominent me
