“We spent 200 million in the past two days to purchase a large amount of renovation materials, and the price is about two-fifths lower than the market price,”Rosemary reported excitedly to Seth about the results of the past two days.The materials they purchased now were enough for seven or eight buildings.Seth nodded. “Take advantage while they haven’t reacted yet. Acquire as much as possible.”Rosemary was about to agree when a call came in.After answering, her expression turned serious..“Alright, I understand.”Rosemary hung up and then spoke to Seth.“Those companies suddenly won’t sell to us anymore. They might have realized something is wrong or discovered that our raw material supply hasn’t been disrupted.”Seth had long anticipated this.“Then temporarily stop purchasing. Go all out to rush out the first phase of the project.”With the currently purchased raw materials, the construction of the first phase could be successfully completed.Rosemary nodded and turn
These people all looked up and saw a woman with a nice figure standing on the roof.Wolf's expression was cold. “Mr. Yeager was right. Someone indeed came to sabotage."“This is bad! We've been discovered!”“Attack together, kill that woman!”Their faces were fierce as they each pulled out small knives and threw them viciously toward Wolf.All of these people were quite skilled, having battled numerous times in the arena.Under joint forces, they could defeat a First-ranked Warrior, but they were no match against Wolf Diecinueve.She evaded continuously, dodging all the knives. She then leapt down from the roof. Mid-air, she swept, directly knocking one person flying. That person fainted on the spot.With both hands on the ground, her body spun at high speed.The people surrounding her were knocked to the ground one by one.Her foot strikes were as fast as lightning. She stepped on their kneecaps, instantly crippling their legs amidst chilling sounds.Hearing the commotion,
“What do you mean by that?!”Warren snorted coldly, looking at these people with full confidence.“Just now, I received a visit from a person named Nate Lawson, who came specifically from South City. He's from the Lawson family in South Lewis. Just a moment ago, he acquired my company.“Now, my backing is the Lewis family of South City. You can inquire about the Lewises’ background. Currently, they specialize in providing weapon parts to the government.“In other words, I now have a connection with the government. If you dare to make a move against me, think about the consequences yourself.”In the Longford Kingdom, whether one was a commoner or from a wealthy family with hundreds of years of heritage, one would become miserable if the bottom line of the country were to be crossed. These people, upon hearing Warren’s words, were immediately shocked.No matter how bold they were, they did not dare to go against the country.The tattooed man no longer had the arrogance he initia
The secretary hurried over, just in time to be seen by Cole.He laughed heartily, commanding the secretary, “Come on, kneel!”The secretary’s face was anxious as she exclaimed, “Mr. Waxman, something bad has happened!”The music inside the villa was too loud, so Cole could not hear her at all.Seeing that his secretary was not kneeling, he slapped her across the face.The secretary, with her eyes red, was utterly aggrieved.However, she dared not delay and hastily turned off the stereo.Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Cole was even more furious. “Are you trying to die, bitch? How dare you ruin my mood like this?!”The secretary was incredibly wronged but still had to speak.She quickly walked to Cole and whispered into his ear, “Mr. Waxman, it’s bad…”Initially quite upset, Cole’s eyes flickered with a terrifying cold light after hearing the secretary’s words. He resembled a venomous snake.“I’ve truly underestimated that little beast!” His eyes continuously shimmered
Inside a private club, there was a conversation taking place.“Governor Zaccone, let me give you a toast. You seem to be getting younger and younger.”Cole raised his glass to a man in his 40s who wore glasses and was polite in demeanor.This man was Nicholas.Nicholas picked up his glass, clinked it against Cole’s, took a sip, and chuckled. “You misspoke. I’m just the deputy. Please be sure to take note of that.”Cole straightened his expression. “You’re joking. The other one’s health has been declining, and I heard he’s retiring this year. Apart from you, who else in Martial City is qualified for the position of governor? So, there's absolutely no issue with calling you the governor now."Nicholas immediately became serious. “Don’t say that again in the future, or I won’t be able to spare you!”Although he said this, the smile in his eyes betrayed his true inner thoughts.Cole nodded repeatedly. “Your correction is well noted.”Cole seemed to have thought of something and pu
She had a face with a trace of allure and a head of smooth, black hair. Her eyes were like serene pools. It was Faye.Seth was somewhat surprised, “What a coincidence. We meet again.”Faye, in a delightful mood because she unexpectedly met Seth again, inquired, “Mr. Yeager, where are you headed?”Seth, amused and resigned, replied, “This is a flight to Martial City. Where do you think I’m headed?”Faye’s cheeks turned a shade redder. “How silly of me. I got a bit excited seeing you, Mr. Yeager.”Seth shook his head with a smile.Faye continued, “Mr. Yeager, what would you like to drink? What would you like to eat? I’ll get it for you.”“Instant noodles and a glass of orange juice will do.“Such a bumpkin!”As soon as Seth finished speaking, a woman beside him curled her lips as her face showed disdain. “Eating instant noodles in first class, you really are a country bumpkin. I bet you used several months of salary to buy a first-class ticket. You must be here to hit on c
"Which real estate company do you work for?" Seth's abrupt question immediately unsettled the woman’s gaze, but she concealed it quite well. Seth, however, still caught onto it. He had some doubts at the start, but he was absolutely certain now. He had no grievances with the woman, yet a somewhat normal person would not taunt him so directly. So, there was only one possibility, and that was that she had done it intentionally—either to keep him here or to delay him as much as possible. The woman might not know where Seth was going, but regardless, delaying him was the goal. The only people who might try to do this or were motivated to do it were those from the real estate companies. He could not think of anyone else. The woman's voice grew louder. "I don't know what you're talking about, but you'd better not try to escape now!"The louder she became, the more it proved her guilt. Seth could not be bothered to care which real estate company she was from. He would settle all of t
The captain led everyone to the lounge. With a serious expression, he said, "Everyone, whatever you saw today, bring it with you to the grave!""Captain, just who is that guy?” someone asked.The captain's expression darkened as he replied with the utmost seriousness, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't! Don't say I didn’t warn you. If what happened today leaves this flight, you'll all spend at least five or six years in prison!"A shiver ran through everyone’s spine when they heard this, and they immediately fell silent. All their questions came to a halt.…In a somewhat old and worn-out residential complex in Martial City where the Logan family resided were some plainly-dressed security staff. They were stationed outside the complex, and they guarded Fred's residence all year-round.Inside a room, Fred lay on a chair as he was being fed by his son. His health had deteriorated over time. Even simple movements had become somewhat difficult for him.After finishing a bowl of o
