"No! This doesn’t look right! I can’t just accept terms like this!" Leonie shook her head vehemently as she read the contents of the letter on the table.

Randolph owed Ezra ten million dollars. If the first party failed to repay the debt by the due date, he would hand over his wife to the second party until the debt was settled. And, to make matters worse, the letter was signed by the head of the Cammont Department of Security, which meant it couldn’t possibly be fake.

Unbelievable!

"Mrs. Griffin, do you think this is my doing? I also don’t understand why your husband used you as collateral. But if there’s someone to blame, it’s your husband," Ezra said, feigning an uncomfortable expression, though in his heart, he was grinning ear to ear.

"Mr. Moore, please understand my situation." Leonie pleaded softly, her voice low and her face half-desperate. "Randolph and I are about to get divorced, so I don’t want to get involved in his affairs or responsibilities."

Exhaling deeply, Ezra gave

    "Mom, are you okay?" Sasha hugged Leonie, who was sitting on the floor, still looking dazed and unable to believe what had just happened."Y-yes... Yes.""Thank goodness. Everything is safe now. I brought security officers with me."Behind Sasha, two security officers scratched their heads, staring at the ten bulky bodyguards sprawled unconscious on the floor."Who is this young man?" they wondered, glancing at Marc. "His fighting skills are terrifying!"These two security officers were certified martial artists. In combat—whether armed or unarmed—their abilities were unquestionable. However, witnessing the speed and explosive force of Marc's punches earlier left them both holding their breath. Even a martial arts master might not be able to execute such precise and devastating movements."Sasha, take care of your mom for now. I'll handle this." Marc said firmly before opening the door to a room and stepping inside."M-Marc..." Sasha raised her hand, intending to stop him. Yet, for so

    “This scoundrel, Dad, this is the one I told you about.” Pushing his way through the crowd with hurried steps, Erick pointed his index finger at Marc while looking at his father. “Not only has this guy attacked innocent people, but he’s also been brazenly disrespectful and violated the law by meddling in Mr. Moore’s affairs.”With a disgusted expression, Erick kept pointing at Marc, passionately defending Ezra. Of course, he was doing this to make it clear to the businessman that his father’s arrival tonight was all thanks to him.“Mr. Moore, what do you think? I’ve never let you down, have I?” Erick whispered in Ezra’s ear as he approached him. “With my dad here now, there’s nothing to worry about anymore.”“Deal with this scum and make him rot in prison! I’ll pay you whatever you want!” Ezra, his eyes blazing with fury, could no longer tolerate someone like Marc walking free without facing consequences.“Thank you, Mr. Moore.” Erick’s eyes gleamed with delight. Since the businessman

    Leonie stood silently, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. She had nothing left to say, as though her world had crumbled and swallowed her whole. Against these powerful figures, what could an ordinary woman like her possibly do?"Kid, don't tell me you're still not satisfied after all these people have testified against you!" Eric's sharp gaze bore into Marc as he pointed his index finger at him. "Right now, all the witnesses and evidence are stacked heavily against you. If you refuse to cooperate, I won’t hesitate to push for a life sentence!"Eric's stern and resolute expression drew admiration from the crowd that had gathered."Mr. Keating truly is remarkable. He has the ability to uncover even the most hidden truths!" thought the onlookers. They nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with awe and respect as they watched the officer."I almost mistook that young man for a hero—if not for Mr. Keating revealing his true face as a criminal.

    "Hahaha! What are you doing? Calling your parents to solve your problem? But why don’t I see you as someone from a wealthy family background?"Hearing Marc call for help, Erick burst into laughter. His face, which had been red with anger moments ago, now turned red from laughing so hard."Funny! So hilarious! This is the first time I’ve seen someone cornered call for help that’s utterly useless!"Not only Erick, but Ezra and everyone else present couldn’t hold back their laughter either. To them, rather than doing something serious, what Marc did looked like a complete joke.The atmosphere at the back of the eighth floor of The Atrium was filled with laughter when, suddenly, a firm voice rang out from behind them."Make way! Clear the path for Mr. Mayor!"The laughter ceased immediately at the sound of the voice. When they turned around, they saw a tall, muscular bodyguard escorting a man in his late forties.

    "Forgive me, Mr. Belmont, but what do you mean?" Newell furrowed his brows, his face showing a questioning expression as he glanced at Winfield and his men before returning his gaze to Marc. "Have they done something to offend you?"Although Newell held immense respect for Marc, it wasn’t merely because the young man had once helped him. Deep in his heart, the mayor recognized that, much like Helma, Marc genuinely cared about others and never acted solely for his own benefit. If the young man said something, it was bound to be serious and required resolution."You..." Winfield stared sharply at Marc, his jaw clenching as he trembled with barely-contained anger. The youth before him had brazenly labeled him and his son as troublemakers and had dragged the mayor into the issue. Even so, Winfield restrained himself from speaking or acting further, out of deference to Newell."They haven’t bothered me in the slightest, nor have they tried to cause any trouble." Marc shook his head."Then?

    At a waterfall pool cascading down from the peak of Kilhill Village’s mountain.A man sat submerged in the icy water. His entire body, save for his head, was beneath the surface.At first glance, nothing seemed unusual about him. But if one looked closely through the crystal-clear water, they would see his body floating, cross-legged, below the surface.“This feels so much better.”Marc Belmont opened his eyes and exhaled deeply. Not only did his body feel tens of times stronger, but his mind also seemed filled with countless fragments of knowledge.A week ago, he had accidentally swallowed a green jade stone the size of a corn kernel, igniting an unbearable, fiery sensation throughout his body. Since then, he had not left the waterfall pool, not even once.But today, something strange happened. He felt an immense, overwhelming power coursing through him. Simultaneously, it was as if his memories were restored.Though he was physically and mentally healthy, Marc had faced one signific

    Less than three hours later, the black car carrying Marc arrived in the courtyard of the Richmond manor.At that moment, a young woman in a deep crimson velvet uniform stood at the front door, her arms crossed over her chest. Her skin was smooth and flawless like jade, her facial features nearly perfect. Shoulder-length black hair and a long neck further accentuated her divine presence.But when she saw who stepped out of the car, a look of surprise and disdain instantly crossed her cold face.“Hendrix, who is this vagrant you’ve brought here? Weren’t you supposed to pick up Dr. Dixon from the airport?”Violet Richmond was the youngest daughter of Cora, Wesley’s eldest child. Though she had just celebrated her twentieth birthday, her sharp intelligence and calculated demeanor had earned her the responsibility of managing several family businesses.It was also thanks to her efforts that Samuel Dixon, a renowned doctor from the capital, had agreed to come to Cammont today to examine the

    A sly, furious smirk curled on Samuel's lips. He had been a renowned doctor in the capital since the age of thirty-five. Since then, no one had ever dared to defy him, let alone insult him.And now, in this remote place far from the capital, someone had the audacity to do just that. Remaining silent would do nothing to quell his anger.“Well? Do you still have the guts to uphold that arrogance of yours?”Samuel was confident in his prognosis. Faced with Wesley’s condition, any doctor would have arrived at the same conclusion as he had.If this foolish young man claimed otherwise, it was clearly nothing but nonsense. And rather than allowing this youth to flaunt his baseless confidence, why not take the chance to prove himself right?Marc turned his face toward Samuel. Instead of fear, his expression was utterly calm.“I accept,” he said lightly.Without another word, Marc took Wesley’s hand and checked his pulse. As the doctor had said, the old man’s condition was indeed critical.Not

    Twenty minutes before they arrived at this restaurant."Erick, what the hell is this? Are you deliberately trying to mess with me?" A man in his mid-thirties, wearing a black suit with a bright yellow tie, slammed one hand on the table on the eighth floor of The Atrium. His other hand pointed accusingly at a bald man, the same age as him, who kept his head bowed. "Do you have any idea how much I've lost because of your incompetence?""Mr. Moore, please forgive me." Erick lifted his face slightly. "I-I honestly didn’t know the mayor would send a task force to arrest Mr. Egerton," he stammered.As the son of Cammont’s head of security, Erick Keating was a mid-ranking officer in the city’s police force, someone who should have played a major role in cleaning up the city of its criminal elements. However, instead of upholding justice, he used his position to cozy up to gang leaders, offering his services to protect them from the police.Chesley was one of those who had employed Erick’s se

  • Chapter 49 - Dinner

    “What exactly is inside this little box?” Marc murmured to himself, clutching the velvet-lined, deep maroon box that resembled a ring case. It was seven in the evening as he walked past the front gate, replaying Annette’s words in his head.“Even though it looks fragile, this box is incredibly sturdy. We’ve never been able to open it, no matter how hard we’ve tried.”Still gazing at the small box, Marc didn’t realize he had already reached the lobby door. As he stepped inside, Leonie and Sasha were sitting on the sofa, engrossed in their phones.This time, however, Marc noticed something different about their appearance compared to the last two days. Sasha was wearing a sleeveless maroon evening gown that fell just above her knees, while Leonie wore an elegant black dress. Their attire made them look not only stunning but also like sisters.“You both look amazing tonight. Are you heading out for dinner?” Marc greeted them, quickly tucking the tiny box into his shirt pocket.“Oh, Marc!

    "Mr. Robins, welcome. We’re sorry we didn’t know it was you who would be coming to see us." Leonie immediately rose from her seat and bowed respectfully upon realizing who had arrived. Sasha followed suit. They both knew the man before them was the butler of the Quentin family.Although the two women wore warm, polite smiles, they couldn’t fully believe what was happening. “So, this is the person Marc meant? Was he really not joking?” they thought, still stunned that Marc had been completely serious about his claims."Thank you, Mrs. Griffin. Please, no need to stand on ceremony. I’ve come here on the recommendation of..."Bachary was about to mention Marc’s name when he noticed the young man at the corner of the room shaking his head and pressing a finger to his lips."Very well, I’ll get straight to business.
