Without hesitation, Christian nodded. He had expected that Maria and her manager already knew him.Christian’s calm demeanor was the key to the success of this plan.Rina then turned to Maria and said, “We can’t continue with this. It’s definitely a trap for you. Come on, it’s better to go home than to deal with Mr. Baltazare boss.”Maria looked hesitant, clearly torn between her desire for the money and concerns for her safety.Regardless, she knew the severity and ruthlessness of Baltazar when it came to betrayal by his subordinates.Then Maria nodded, deciding to leave.“Where are you going? Haven’t I paid you well?” asked Christian.“Sorry, Mr. Demetri, I’ll return your money,” said Rina.Christian nodded and said, “You can leave after you return all of my money. If you can’t, you can’t leave.”After hearing Christian’s words, Maria and Rina simultaneously remembered something. They exchanged glances.They remembered that the transfer limit from their savings was only a maximum of
Christian had not been touched by a woman, his biological weapon, for a long time. The last time he did was before he married Yve. That meant it had been over 3 years.This pleasure made Christian not take any action to prevent or distance Lena’s hand from his biological weapon.Lena wasn’t unaware, but she chose to pretend not to notice, and slowly began to squeeze that part while her eyes stared at the three people enjoying the peak of pleasure.As a normal human, Lena hoped Christian would do something bolder to her, preferably leading to an intimate relationship.Unfortunately, Christian quickly realized and immediately moved Lena’s hand away without saying a word.As the intensity of the Hugo game increased, Lena couldn’t take it anymore. She chose to join the three people.Christian was surprised. He didn’t expect Lena to be so daring. But Christian didn’t object; he enjoyed it because the game was getting hotter and wilder.After half an hour, the time came when Hugo could no l
If they were to openly confront Baltazar, neither of them would dare. Not just the two of them, but also the other artist friends under Baltazar’s umbrella wouldn’t be able to withstand it.“For that, we will be brave, Sir. Baltazar will surely chase us immediately, and... and... he might even kill both of us on the spot. We don’t want to do that,” Rina said, her face pale.“You just relax; I will provide protection. My people will guard around your residence and wherever you go. I’m not foolish enough to leave you; otherwise, my efforts will be in vain in the end,” Christian said.The two women still hesitated. The risk was significant, requiring them to carefully consider it.“So, you and some artist friends who you think can cooperate and have the desire to break free from Baltazar’s trap, I will gather in a place protected by my people. So, when you all gather, delete your posts together and then clarify that you were forced to lie about Baltazar and the Innovations Group. I promi
Mateusz was filled with emotions. He could sense something unusual from his encounter with Christian, Maria, and Rina at the Dimond Hotel, which was owned by Christian.Whether it was because of his ability to read situations very well or his tendency to have negative assumptions about others, one thing was certain – he knew that the three of them were conspiring to destroy him.“What? Conspiring about what? With this man? Who is he, anyway?” Maria asked with a sarcastic tone.Mateusz stared into Maria’s eyes and said, “Don’t lie! I’ll be ruined if you team up with him.”Maria glanced at Christian, observing him from head to toe. Then she laughed, “Hahaha... team up with this guy? Don’t underestimate me, Mr. Mateusz. I’m a top-rated artist loved by many men. If I were to collaborate with someone, at least I would choose a wealthy man, a tycoon.”“Mr. Mateusz, just look at the clothes he’s wearing. Are they from a famous brand or a world-class designer? I’m sure the suit he’s wearing c
Alex truly maximized his current network. He was no longer ashamed or hesitant to seek help from the US mafia network that controlled the area where Baltazar’s three television stations were located.Christian took the files given by Alex and began reading them.Darrell turned to Alex. Then he asked, “How did you get that information?”“I got it from Kenji, who rules the East region in central New York, and Yuuki, who rules the West region in east New York. I also sent my subordinates to find out directly at those television offices this morning,” explained Alex.Darrell was quite surprised to hear Alex’s answer, but then he smiled.Alex was the only leader willing to communicate directly and seek help from leaders in other regions. Typically, leaders would carry out their tasks alone, just like Alex did before when assigned to find two terrorists. Since heeding Christian’s advice, he had discarded all his ego and was willing to ask for help from leaders in other areas.“Do you want t
Abillio used to be Christian’s best friend. While people distanced themselves and mocked Christian, Abillio stood by him.However, something seemed to have changed, as Abillio’s attitude towards Christian had shifted. The man refused to meet Christian, suspecting that his high school friend was seeking a job from him.“But, sir, this person is the leader of CrispCrafter Ltd. It seems he has serious business with you,” the receptionist explained, whispering to avoid being overheard by Christian and Dorota.“What? Christian, the leader of CrispCrafter Ltd. ? Are you kidding me?” Abillio was shocked to hear Dorota’s revelation.“I’m serious, sir. Why would I lie to you?” She said, glancing at Christian.After a moment of thought, Abillio said, “Alright then, tell Christian to come into my office.”“Yes, sir.” The receptionist hung up the phone.The woman then approached Christian. She said, “Come, sir, I’ll take you to Mr. Abillio’s office.”Christian nodded with a smile, but Dorota rema
Christian was determined to destroy Baltazar to the core. He didn’t care about the money he would spend; he would pay whatever it took.“Are you serious about this, Christian?” Abillio asked once again to reassure himself.Dorota joined the conversation to convince Abillio to trust Christian’s words, “Mr. Abillio, I apologize for speaking up. Mr. Demetri cannot play games in this matter. What are you worried about, Mr. Abillio? Are you afraid Mr. Demetri will deceive you?”Abillio replied, “It’s only natural for me to ask; this is not a small amount of money we’re talking about. It takes billions to execute this plan. I’m just checking his readiness so that I won’t waste my time later on.”“I will pay it directly. How much do you need?” Christian asked.Once again, Abillio was surprised. After a moment of silence, Abillio then checked the current stock prices for TV 8.After getting the information, Abillio said, “It will take at least 200 billion in capital to pull this off. But don’
Yve’s tears made the atmosphere awkward. Lyka and Christian wanted to say something, but not a single word came out of their mouths.Christian touched Yve’s hand, busy wiping away her never-ending tears. However, Yve immediately pulled her hand away from Christian.With a sob, Yve said, “If you want to leave, just go, I won’t stop you. Take care of yourselves, don’t let the past repeat itself.”After saying that, Yve immediately stepped into the house.Christian tried to hold Yve’s hand; he still wanted to explain what happened to clarify this misunderstanding. But Yve pulled her hand so hard to free herself from Christian.“Sis, please listen to my explanation!” Lyka pleaded.But Yve ignored Lyka’s request to explain what actually happened. She then went straight into her room and locked the door.Certainly, in Yve’s room, she cried uncontrollably.Camila shook her head; she didn’t expect such an incident in her family, where siblings competed for a man.“You guys keep causing proble
