"What's the meaning of this? You promised to give me these items, and now you want to take them back?" Praise's face showed anger and frustration. John had never been humiliated by a girl before, and he retorted, "Miss Praise if you don't want them, we have to take them back!Praise was already on edge, and she considered these items to be her own. She refused to let them go and sent a message on her phone.Soon after, a group of people led by a bald, scar-faced man surrounded Praise house. Praise sneered, "You willingly gave me these items, and now you want to take them back. What's the meaning of this?"Sophia thought Praise was being unreasonable, "Miss Praise, we're here to act as matchmakers. If you agree to marry John, you can keep the items. If not, you should return them. Isn't that fair?"Praise laughed, "I don't need to explain anything to you. Once these items are in my house, they belong to me!"Camilla signaled to Daniel, indicating that only he could retrieve the items
"Mr. Kang’s illness has started to recover, and President Jasper's father will also be discharged from the hospital in a month.""Well, that's good news!"Today is Saturday, and the two of them are resting in the room, still somewhat idle.At this time, there was a notification in Sophia’s WhatsApp group, and she quickly opened it. It turned out that Brock Carver, the group Admin of her middle school classmates' WhatsApp group, had sent her an invitation: Sophia, there is a class reunion today, please don't be late. Sophia hadn't seen these classmates in years, so she sent a message: What time? Let me know and I'II arrive on time. Brock replied: 4:30 pm, third-floor private room at the Majestic Hotel.Many old classmates became active in the WhatsApp group. Everyone talked about some past events in the group, and the group suddenly became lively. Around four o'clock, Sophia told Daniel, "Daniel, you have to come with me to the Majestic Hotel today."Sophia had some attachment in her h
Unexpectedly, Crosby didn't forget to pass a message to Brock as he turned around, “See you later!" Although he said it lightly, his wife heard it.In an instant, his wife became angry, walked over, grabbed Brock's long hair, and fiercely slammed her to the ground. The people present wanted to help, but they didn't dare to step forward. Daniel walked over and grabbed the woman's hand with one hand, immediately rendering her unable to move. Brock was able to escape and hide among her classmates.The woman looked at Daniel and asked, "Who are you and why are you against me?Do you know who I am?""I don't know who the madam is, but I'm curious to find out," Daniel replied."I'm the CEO of Freeman Coal Industry, and my father is the boss!" the woman said."Freeman Coal Industry? I don't think I've heard of it before," Daniel repeated, nodding his head."Haven't heard of it?" the woman was surprised. Daniel smiled and nodded. "Have you heard of Harri's name? My name is Jarvis, and Harris
"Daniel, is it true that Joseph borrowed money and bought stocks this time?""Okay." Daniel began to give instructions to Carolina. Joseph looked at Daniel with some disdain, "Cousin, Daniel is useless, how can he find out the truth about my borrowing money?"Sophia did not respond, she just secretly felt that Joseph was like a big rough man, how could he guess Daniel’s true side?After a while, Daniel spoke, "This time he did borrow five million from Samuel, and he sent people to find him and ask him to repay the money."Sophia did not speak again, and thought for a while, "Daniel, do you think Samuel has any purpose?"Daniel shook his head, "Not yet found out." Joseph glanced at Daniel with some disdain, when did Sophia become so protective of Daniel?He always liked his cousin Sophia, but Daniel's presence between him and Sophia made it difficult for him to win her heart. He resented this all the time!At this moment, a wave of hatred surged into his chest again. “Joseph, I'll giv
When Sophia had nothing to do, she received a call from Joseph."Hey, Joseph, where are you now?" Sophia asked, feeling concerned.'I'm in Ascot Ridge," Joseph replied."Is everything okay?" Sophia asked."No, it's not. I lost another 50,000 pesos in gambling," Joseph said."Where did you lose it?" Sophia asked."At the underground boxing arena in Ascot Ridge. At first, I won, but then the staff there told me that it was easy to win the Lamborghini if I kept playing. So I got greedy and bet a lot, but ended up losing. Now, I'm having problems with my daily life..." Joseph explained. Sophia’s face turned red with anger.She scolded him sternly, "Joseph, what you did was wrong!""Cousin, can you lend me another 50,000 pesos? I promise to listen to you and not gamble again," Joseph pleaded. Sophia was about to reply when Daniel took the phone from him and said, "Joseph, you're always asking your cousin for money. That's called freeloading. I suggest that your cousin should not give you a
At the moment, Sophia couldn't speak out. Feeling helpless, she turned to Pablo and said, "Pablo, I forbid you to recruit Joseph as your subordinate!""Sophia, this matter is settled. Don't say anything more," Pablo didn't give her a chance to speak. However, Sophia persisted. She knew that once Joseph joined The Black Hand, it would be impossible for him to leave. "Joseph, if you join The Black Hand, there will be no more cousin relationship between us. If you don't join, you can join the company back. The choice is yours."Joseph had already made up his mind. Being rejected by the pharmaceutical factory in the northern suburbs due to lack of funds was a great humiliation for him. If he joined The Black Hand headquarters directly, he could directly control the northern suburbs pharmaceutical factory and become the overlord, including Ethan, Camilla, and John. It would be the pinnacle of his life. "Cousin, I have decided.Even if you don't recognize me as yourcousin!"He wanted to sa
To show his power, he waved his hand, and Praise, Baldy, Scar, and several other small leaders walked up to him, bowing respectfully, "Hello, President!""Well, hello everyone! You all did a good job just now and didn't embarrass The Black Hand. Now, let me introduce you to a new core member of The Black Hand headquarters, the protagonist of this incident…”"Joseph?" Everyone asked in unison, some with incredulous expressions, and some with dissatisfaction."President, I have met Joseph before. He is idle and does nothing. I didn't even let him join the pharmaceutical factory in the northern suburbs, but you used him. This is not convincing!" Praise's face was full of opposition."Yes, President, you didn't use him properly."Baldy's tone was a bit unique, full of broken notes. Pablo had his plan, and his face gradually became unhappy: "Are you the President or am I the President? Once I have made a decision, it will not change again."Joseph stood there at first with some taboo, but
On the way, Jasper asked, "I wonder if there has been any improvement in my father's condition?""In another twenty days, Mr. President will be able to meet with your father, and his condition will certainly have improved." was the reply.Jasper laughed heartily upon hearing this, showing a sense of relief. Upon arriving at the presidential palace, Daniel and Sophia received an unprecedented level of reception. However, as they were in the presidential palace, Sophia was the one in her element. The reason was that Daniel had already explained to Jasper that he had come to the island to see his parents, but for their safety, they had to keep a low profile. Jasper agreed to this.That night, Sophia stayed in a hotel, with Daniel in the room next door. The nine countries, disguised and taking turns on guard duty, kept watch day and night. The next day, Sophia and Daniel went to the mountain valley county on the island under the guise of conducting an inspection. The county was the econo
