"Is this a threat?" Dillon glared at him."Advice, not threats. Your daughter's attacker has some words for you, Mister Stukes."He said he has planted the heart-rotting poison in your daughter's body. She will die from the poison if she does not apologize for her crimes within a week. No one else can save her," Nazeem said indifferently.Dillon quickly requested blood work. The report confirmed Cadence's body contained an unknown poison.Dillon's face darkened."First, you beat up my daughter, then you poison her. Now you're asking her to apologize? Well, very well."Contact the Martert Sect and ask them to send the top ten inner strength masters to South Edren tonight. I want to destroy this man."Nazeem shook his head and left. He could not save someone if they did not want to be saved.Dillon was arrogant, and Seanic was far ahead of Edren County. His contempt for South Edren made sense.Being bullied by Edren County residents humiliated him. He would be ridiculed in Seani
Howard noticed one step too late.Claire acted fast and was about to leave with the contract in her hand.However, Florence was faster. She snatched the contract from Claire's hand, tore it to pieces, and threw the shredded paper into the trash can."My daughter hasn't even woken up yet. And you're already trying to steal her company?" Florence put both hands on her waist and sneered, "Can you even run the company if we give it to you freely?""Don't mind my words. With how ignorant your family is, you'll run a small shop into the ditch in a day, much less a billion-dollar company."Gustav and Claire's expressions darkened."Are you sure you're doing this? You don't think of us as family?"Gilbert lowered his head and smoked a cigarette without saying a word.Florence slapped him. "Your brother asked you a question. Why are you not answering him?""I—""Mom, stop arguing."Alora had already woken up.Her injuries have been treated and bandaged, and her life was no longer in
Everyone in the room was scared mindless when they heard the other party's orders. They knelt on the ground, afraid to move.Claire shouted for mercy, claiming she was innocent and unrelated to the incident.Dillon did not care about innocence. He was there to avenge his daughter. He wanted them to feel pain and fear when they died.The fighters in black shirts behind him rushed into the room. Ordinary people like Gilbert could not stop them."Stop it!" Alora sat on the bed and shouted weakly.However, her voice only made the smile on Dillon's face crueler.Suddenly, a finger pressed against the back of Dillon's head."Your men try anything funny, and I will send your brain splattering across the room." A cold voice came from behind Dillon."Who are you?" Dillon frowned and looked to his side. He could see a young man's face behind him." I was the one who beat up your daughter. I let her have a taste of her own medicine, but only ten times stronger. If you don't like what has
The Martert Sect deputy was the best warrior among the top ten disciples. His strength had surpassed horizontal cultivation, reaching the start of inner strength cultivation.He was one of the best instructors in the Martert Sect. Therefore, his self-confidence was far beyond that of an ordinary warrior.He did not want to use even a quarter of his strength because of his disdain toward ordinary martial arts practitioners.He thought this young man was ordinary because he could not feel anything dangerous about him. He was worse than the apprentices who had first entered the Martert Sect.Ashton usually presented that facade—weak and frail, harmless to others.Hundreds of pounds of explosive force hit Ashton's elbow. It was enough to break human bones.At the same time, Ashton moved. It was just a simple action. He quickly intercepted his opponent's fist in midair. He grabbed onto it and twisted.The expression on the deputy's face suddenly froze.The sound of dislocation and d
"You're asking me to shut up?" Florence looked at her in disbelief."Yes." Alora did not back down but confronted her mother head-on."I took care of the whole family and all your feelings. Which one of you has taken care of my feelings in return?"I was bullied and humiliated, and in the end, my ex-husband restored my dignity. I think it's ridiculous.""Alora—" Howard wanted to say something, but Alora's terrified look kept him silent."Aunt Claire, if your daughter is willing to work in my company, I will arrange a position for her. But if you have any other ideas, then forget it. I created the company and will not give it to anyone."Claire's face darkened for a while, and she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Alora, you're lucky."Alora's expression was blank as she watched them leave."Dad, take Mom home. I want to be alone for a while.""Okay." Gilbert lowered his head, pulled Florence, and dragged her out of the room.Finally, Alora glanced at Howard, who had not mo
"Lance?""I did not expect you to remember my name." Lance smiled sweetly."You and Yanne were classmates, and you saved Alora again. It's hard to forget who you are.""Are you here today to participate in agent activities?" Ashton looked at the crowded scene and asked with a smile."Yes, my brother is busy with family affairs today and doesn't have time to come. So, he told me to come here and handle the procedures," Lance replied obediently.The two exchanged a few greetings, and then Ashton asked her to go in and take a seat quickly.The Lockwood family looked for dozens of agents throughout South Edren. These agents were decentralized layer by layer, one by one, and finally formed an entire network of sales routes, including thousands of pharmacies and sales points.Besides agents, many small bosses and pharmacy owners were there to have fun and get more benefits."Howard, wait here. I'll go in and look."Jaxson lit a cigarette and walked into the Royal Sealift Group headq
Howard, Shylah, and Livia were stunned. They looked at each other and laughed."Did I hear you right?""You heard him right. He claimed to be the majority La Verdure Pill shareholder, so Miss Lockwood must listen to him." Livia laughed."I'm dying here. Levin, you should take a long, hard look in the mirror. You're nothing but trash that Alora discarded, and now you're claiming that you developed the La Verdure Pill? What does Miss Lockwood even see in you?"You might be able to fool others with all your bragging, but I know who you are. After living in my sister's shadows for so long, you are now leeching off Miss Lockwood. You think you're something, huh?""It doesn't matter if you believe me. I can only tell you that the general manager you claim to be in charge of the agents has no authority to authorize agents," Ashton said, pity in his tone."My godfather promised me. Do you think I will take yours or my godfather's word on this?" Livia snorted coldly."Livia, it's useless
Howard's expression darkened. He said sternly, "Levin, shut your damn mouth. Another word, and I will tear you apart!"Ashton smiled smugly. Then, he looked at Denver. "I just heard you say you plan to mix defective products with the qualified ones and sell them in bundles. As a Royal Sealift Group executive, don't you know what impact this will have on the Royal Sealift Group's reputation?"Denver's face fell, and he glared at Ashton with irritation. "Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot do?"Ashton narrowed his eyes slightly. "Miss Lockwood hired you into a high position because she trusted you. However, you're willing to risk the company's reputation for your selfish desires. What consequences will await you if Miss Lockwood learns about this?""Oh? You don't know when to stop, do you?" Denver's voice instantly rose. He rolled up his sleeves as if he was ready to hit someone. "It's none of your business, so you'd better stay out of this. Don't force me to put a bounty on
