2024-06-04 11:40:14When Bryce heard that, he was shocked.
"Are you serious? Don't try to fool me. If this is an attempted scam, I'll make sure it doesn't end well for you," Bryce said incredulously.
Tamara sighed. The woman looked a little flustered but tried to appear confident.
"Sir, I am not lying. Everything I said just now has a solid foundation. If you have any doubts, come with me. My car is parked across the street. I can prove my words."
Feeling he had no other options, Bryce finally decided to follow Tamara. He still showed a cautious attitude.
"Sir, what are you waiting for standing there? Let's get in the car," Tamara assured Bryce.
He looked around, making sure there were no other threats that might harm him in the car.
A relieved Bryce said, "So what proof are you going to show me?"
Tamara picked up a box from the back seat and gave it to the man beside her.
"What is this?" asked Bryce in confusion.
"The answer you seek," Tamara replied.
Bryce immediately opened the box, and he was confused by its contents. Several documents and photos of him were inside.
"I still don't understand," he said.
Tamara shook her head and replied, "For the past six months, I have been paying a private detective to investigate you. I knew that my hunch wasn't wrong, and everything proved to be correct. You are the missing heir."
Bryce was surprised; this time, he started to trust her words.
"Wh-what? Am I the heir to that glorious business empire?"
Tamara gave her a stern look and replied, "Of course. The private detective I paid managed to gather all the evidence. You have a birthmark in the same position as the Milano family's long-lost son."
A confused Bryce asked, "How can you be sure of this? Everyone can have a birthmark."
"Good question!" she said. "But what makes me sure is that besides the DNA sample test that was there, the necklace you have is a special symbol of the predecessor of the Milano family. Only the core heirs get such a sacred object. A necklace that is passed down from generation to generation. Some said it was the Milano family's lucky charm. The reason why the family can continue to be successful."
Bryce saw the DNA sample test, which confirmed the accuracy of the results. He also saw her necklace. A happy smile spread across his face.
"I finally have a family. All this time, I thought I was a lone wolf." Bryce said with teary eyes, holding back his happy tears.
Tamara just smiled at this.
"Wait a sec; if I'm the heir to that family, why aren't they looking for me?"
She responded, "It's because your extended family is too busy fighting over the inheritance. From a source close to an insider, I learnt that Milano's business empire is faltering and may collapse at any moment."
Bryce was then stunned. He was reminded of the Carter family, who were just as greedy about wealth.
"Then didn't they try to save the family business?"
Tamara smiled and replied, "Of course they tried. It's just that not everyone has the talent to be a leader. Not to mention that a lot of selfishness can make things messy."
Upon hearing that, Bryce felt a great responsibility to make things right.
"One thing I don't understand. If you have no special connection with anyone from the Milano family, how did you know they have a missing heir? Wouldn't it be better for them never to mention my existence if they want the treasure?"
Tamara let out a long sigh. She had to express her true desires.
"Well, that's true. But because of their greed, the hidden will of the head of the family, Mr William Milano, has been exposed. Soon, the news will probably spread everywhere. The families in this town will try their hardest to find you. It's been rumoured for a long time, but now all eyes will be on you."
Bryce now understood where Tamara was going with this.
"Then what do you want from me? There's no way you came willingly."
"Good guess. But I'm not that kind of person. If I weren't under pressure, I wouldn't have done this," Tamara says. The woman's assertive demeanour now looks more like pleading.
"My husband is very sick. I've spent all our money on his treatment, but there's no significant result. Now we're going bankrupt. So I'm hoping for your compassion to help with my husband's medical expenses."
Tamara cried as she said this, but she tried to control herself and stay strong.
"I see," sighed Bryce.
"I can understand your condition. But how can you help me?"
Tamara, seeing the enthusiasm in Bryce's eyes, wiped away her tears. Excited, she said, "You don't have to worry about that. Even though I'm in the edge of going bankrupt, I have a lot of connections. I also know how to play the rich people's game."
Bryce was amazed by the spirit of the woman next to him.
"You don't have to worry. As I said at the beginning, I am the person you can trust the most right now. I will help you transform. Let's make the world kneel at your feet," Tamara says confidently.
"Very well. Our deal is officially sealed. I will now show no mercy to those who despise me," Bryce muttered.
They both ended up shaking hands to signify the 'Deal' position. They smiled at each other happily.

Soon, the car was on its way to one of the top designer boutiques in town. Tamara drove the car with great excitement, and Bryce could see the smile on the beautiful woman's face."Sir, we've arrived. Let's get off!" said a delighted Tamara.A slightly confused Bryce responded, "Tamara, why are we stopping here? I thought you would take me straight to the Milano residence."Tamara was about to laugh when she heard that innocent sentence, but she quickly controlled herself."Sir, apologies if I'm presumptuous, but you might be able to see your appearance," she said."What's wrong with my appearance? I'm wearing normal clothes," Bryce said innocently."Well, that's the right analysis. That's precisely the problem. You look too ordinary. People won't think you're special looking like this. I'm sure they won't believe a word you say or care what you have to say," Tamara explains.Bryce could only stare at that. He did not understand some of the rich people's game rules."The clothes you'r

As the store guards dragged Bryce out of there, he tried to give some explanations so that the manager would not involve the police."Maam, I am one of the customers at your shop. Why am I being discriminated against and treated like this?"The manager was stunned and then looked Bryce up and down."Liar! That's not possible. That guy can't possibly afford to buy clothes at this particular designer store," the woman who created the commotion reappeared there."My lover's words must be true. I'm pretty sure this man sneaked in to do something bad," the man who was the woman's partner chimed in.The Manager felt that what they were saying was very true."Judging by his appearance, there's no way this guy can afford any of our collection," she mused.As the Manager, she immediately took a mobile phone from her pocket to make a call, but Bryce intercepted it immediately."I'm sorry if my actions were presumptuous. But you should listen to me too. I am indeed a new customer here. If you do

After sorting things out at the designer store, Bryce and Tamara left. Both felt visibly satisfied and happy."If I'd known they would patronise you like that, I would have acted earlier. I thought you were still having fun trying on clothes in that special room. I should have felt suspicious because there was so much time wasted," Tamara says, lamenting Bryce's situation."Tamara, it's okay. You don't have to feel upset or guilty. I think this is a way for me to learn about real life," he responded casually."Very well. But it's still a good thing I saw the staff serving you earlier and was able to react immediately. Otherwise, it might not have ended well for you," she said."Guess I'm lucky to have someone as trustworthy and reliable as you," Bryce said proudly.Tamara smiles briefly at the sentence. The two are now back in the car with some shopping bags.Tring!A call interrupted her before she could switch on the car's engine.Tamara looked at Bryce and said, "Let me take this c

"Miss, I trust him. I will take full responsibility if anything happens to my husband," Tamara said firmly.Leah, as a nurse, was not pleased. "Maam, please don't block my way. You can't do this as you please. There are procedures and rules in this hospital. I have to stop that man before your husband's condition cannot be saved.""What a funny phrase! You guys go overboard when prescribing medicine for patients, then have the nerve to say that this hospital is the best in town?" Bryce sneered."What you said is slander!" Leah looked shaken.Indeed, David's treating doctor, Nolan Houston, over-prescribed medication for him. Leah found out, and Nolan gave her money to keep her quiet.She wondered, "Does this man already know about it? In that case, I should stop the treatment!"Leah believed that Bryce had no medical skills. She was worried that Bryce would accidentally kill David and the police would get involved in the matter. If the police investigate and find the cause of death, No

Looking at the angry Gabriel, Nolan smiled haughtily. He believed Bryce was in serious trouble now.Bryce frowned. He wanted to take the man out and hit him, but he realised that the man was Gabriel.Bryce heard that Gabriel is a great doctor."Don't be so quick to judge." Bryce said indifferently, "Look!" His treatment process had almost reached the final stage; he had to finish it soon.Gabriel ignored Bryce's words and still insisted on stopping him. However, Bryce's hand moved so quickly that Gabriel was dumbfounded."Well..." Gabriel looked hesitant.His speed seemed to tell Gabriel that Bryce understood what he was doing.Gabriel observes Bryce and realises that Bryce's treatment methods are mysterious, strange, and effective. Gabriel realised something. His face looks shocked."No way. What I think is impossible!" Gabriel exclaimed in disbelief."Mr Shaw, stop Bryce! He's going to get the patient killed!" Nolan ur

Bryce said, "Apologise to Tamara!""I'm sorry. Please forgive me." Nolan and Leah knelt and apologised repeatedly."Get out of here!" Bryce snapped. The two hurriedly ran outside.Just then, Bryce shot a silver needle into Nolan's body. Bryce didn't want Tamara to see the violence, but that didn't mean Bryce would let Nolan get away with it.Nolan would feel miserable every night after the silver needle shot him. He would feel like thousands of ants were biting his heart. It felt worse than death."You guys get out of here too," Bryce told Gabriel and Cory.Today, he was going to discharge Tamara from the hospital. Cory obeyed Bryce's orders. Gabriel, however, remains frozen in place and looks doubtful."Why are you still here?" Bryce frowned."Will you teach me the Dreamweaver Technique from earlier?" After a while, Gabriel asked earnestly.Gabriel dedicated his life to saving lives. If he had that skill, he would have

"Alright." Finley nodded."Grandpa, look at that son-in-law; he has no manners. We're all discussing something important, and he wants to leave this room immediately. He should show his achievements if he wants to be arrogant."They all seemed to agree with that statement. Bryce, who had wanted to rest, was now stuck with the drama of his sister-in-law. The pair took great pleasure in dehumanising Bryce."Honey, you're right. He's quite arrogant for a man with no accomplishments. Bryce has the hardened nature of a pest. I thought his behaviour in the office the other day was enough to get him out of here. But somehow, it seems like my warnings fell on deaf ears. Our family has become a laughing stock because of a man like him," Veronica's mother, who was also there, said.With a glass of wine in her hand, Mrs Veronica walked over to Bryce. She reluctantly poured all the contents into Bryce's face."True, this man has never contributed anything to o

"That's right. A poor man like Bryce should be a servant, not a son-in-law. The Carter Family has been in the public eye for almost two years. It would be great if we were famous for our achievements, but instead, we've become a joke in society. I really can't bear to be embarrassed for this long."People in the family thought that Bryce was the same as rubbish. He not only did not help Veronica but also hindered her all the time.All these glimpses of the early days of their marriage are a turning point in the golden age of the Carter family. What was once perfect now has the disgrace of defects on full display.With his head still spinning, his lips dripping blood, and his stomach aching, Bryce tried to ignore what others were saying about him.

With an embarrassed look, he said, "Veronica,

If you had survived, you would have become an important figure in Novaria one day.

The lake was calm again.No one wants to believe that the great Hector is dead.Hector is a dragon.Hector was Novaria's pride.Although created from water, Hector is still a dragon.However, Hector had just been beheaded by Bryce."Impossible, impossible," Many spectators stared at the lake in confusion and continued to whisper.Suddenly, bubbles appeared in the centre of the lake.The sound from the lake grew louder.People in the neighbourhood also heard this sound."Look, what is it?"People were startled by the sound and looked to the centre of the lake.A pair of horns appeared in the centre of the lake.Then, a giant dragon's head emerged from the water, and then its body appeared.In the end, an intact water dragon floated on the surface of the water.This marvellous sight surprised many people.Is this the water dragon that Bryce decapitated?"Sky.

At that moment, Hector's dragon incarnate coiled in the air, looking at Bryce from a distance.Bryce, on the other hand, just looked down on the dragon.In the eyes of the audience, this is a duel between an immortal and an ordinary human being.Hector as an immortal and Bryce as an ordinary human.Ordinary humans cannot defeat immortals, so Bryce would definitely not be able to fight Hector.However, Bryce's facial expression did not change in the slightest. He remained calm as he faced the giant dragon.In fact, Bryce was surprised.Bryce had no idea that Hector could create such a secret technique.Other people may not understand the secret technique, but Bryce can understand it easily.This secret technique is extremely powerful and can increase Hector's strength from the Intermediate Stage Expert level to the Late Stage.The gap between each level of experts is huge. Four Intermediate-stage experts cannot defeat a Late-stage expert.That was enough to show how powerful this secre

"Impressive." Bryce praised with a laugh.He raised and swung his hand into the air. The water net was cut and stopped in mid-air.The people around were surprised to see that.They had no idea that Bryce was so extraordinary that he could control Hector's magic tricks.At that instant, Bryce rushed over to Hector. The fingers of Bryce's left hand turned into a knife and the Knife Spirit gathered."Sky, you're fooled. You think the Water Thread Net is just like that?"Instead of feeling scared, Hector felt satisfied when Bryce approached him. As soon as Hector clenched his fist in a reverse position, the water in the air surrounded Bryce like a storm.Hector knew that it would not be easy to face Bryce, so he pretended to lose. He waited for the opportunity to give Bryce the killing blow.The people watching understood."No wonder Hector's beautiful attack was so easily defeated. It turned out to be Hector's trick. He ha

Bryce mocked Hector and felt that Hector was not his equal.He underestimated Hector.Hector was a calm man, but he was furious at Bryce's taunts.Everyone was surprised by Bryce's words.Bryce must be crazy. He was an Intermediate Stage Expert, but so was Hector.How dare she speak to Hector in such a tone."Bryce, you're really cocky. I hope this isn't just your bluff."Then, Hector moved. His movement made a huge sound.Hector leapt into the air, meanwhile, his feet created a huge wave."Show me your skills, Bryce."Hector laughed and leapt into the air and lunged at Bryce.Bryce stood still and his eyes glittered with a cold stare. "All right. You asked for it. What can I do."Hector moved with lightning speed and arrived in front of Bryce. He put his hands together.Then two large whirlpools were formed by Hector's Internal Energy."Destroy it."Bryce held up one finger and

However, they were surprised that Bryce killed Layne with just one move.Rey and the others were shocked and couldn't believe what had just happened."How is that possible? I thought Bryce was a fake expert. How could he kill Layne so easily?"Rey mumbled and her eyes widened. She thought Bryce would be killed without her help.However, the opposite was true. Bryce killed Layne with just one move.Therefore, there was no doubt that Bryce was a true expert and he was much stronger than Layne.Could Bryce be an Intermediate Stage Expert?No, no way.It had been a while since Rey became a Brawler and she was still an Intermediate Stage Expert.

So, they knew in advance who had just spoken.Surprisingly, he was Bryce."Bryce, you're crazy, aren't you? Why would you show up in a situation like this?" Rey scolded Bryce."What? You think you're an expert? What they want is Sky, not Bryce.""That's right. this is a battle between Intermediate Stage Experts, and you're just an Advanced Champion.""Bryce, this is not child's play. We're talking about the best fighter. If anyone messes up the duel, he will definitely be killed.""Step back. Don't block our view."

Rey asked in a curious tone.Bryce really doesn't get along with Rey.Rey thought Bryce had gone to Umbrella City with Veronica, but Bryce showed up here before Rey got the news of his return.Rey felt cheated by Bryce.He needed an explanation from Bryce.However, it seemed like Bryce did not hear her and ignored Rey."You didn't hear? Are you deaf or stupid? Explain." Rey, who was annoyed, shouted at Bryce.Bryce turned to look at Rey and replied nonchalantly, "Explanation? Do I need to explain what I did to you?"You can come here. Why can't I?"Then, Bryce looked away and turned his back to Rey."You,"Rey's face turned grim and his eyes widened in anger. However, she decided not to continue.If there weren't so many people here, Rey would have kicked Bryce hard.The elites beside Rey witnessed everything."Look. He was very rude to Mr Carter.

"Although he used special magic to become an Expert Brawler, the truth is that Sky is still at the Late Stage of Proficiency. Adept-level champions and above should accept the challenge of fighting. Otherwise, Sky's ability will be tarnished.His faith in martial arts will also be shaken. He will find it very difficult to improve his skills in the future."Sky is still very young. So, he must be proud of himself and won't let his confidence waver. I'm sure he'll come." Layne said while stroking his beard."Then I can rest easy." Juan breathed a sigh of relief."Plus, when Sky appears, I'll ask Mr Burley to allow me to fight on his behalf. If Mr Burley agrees, I can avenge my nephews' anger."
