2024-10-29 19:42:56Arthur walked out of the office.
He gave Will an opportunity, hoping that he would know how to choose.
He didn't directly execute Will because he still cared about his relationship with his adoptive parents.
Although they only loved Will, they had at least let him live, which made him grateful.
If Will weren't the son of the couple, he would definitely died in a miserable way.
At this moment, laughter filled the office, they were laughing out loudly.
They looked down on Arthur, who had nothing but dared to speak that way.
Will also laughed and said, "What can he do to me? Does he think he's still the Arthur Smith from three years ago? How foolish!"
When the board of directors heard Will's words, their laughter grew even louder.
They wildly flattered Will and belittled Arthur.
Arthur didn't react to the people in the room, who were just a group of demons rejoicing before being thrown into the fiery pit of hell.
Only the ignorant person's final folly.
His footsteps remained steady as he walked away without looking back.
Meanwhile, Will stared intently at his departing figure. His gaze was malicious to the extreme.
As if he was already thinking of ways to kill Arthur again.
......
Arthur noticed a dazzling red Enzo parked by the roadside as he left the company.
A pair of red high-heeled shoes stepped out of the car.
It was an incredibly beautiful woman, wearing a tight-fitting office outfit to accentuate her fiery curves.
Her hair was also a bright red color, styled in waves and flowing down her back.
This woman was undoubtedly a robust and influential figure. Arthur silently assessed her in mind.
Scarlet had been waiting at the company gate for over fifteen minutes and finally saw him.
He was a tall and handsome young man, whose face truly stood out among the crowd.
Perhaps he was the most outstanding-looking person she had ever seen.
Scarlet didn't know the exact position of this young man in Hastings, but she thought he might be a minor member from the family.
High-ranking person from Hastings should not behave so low-profile, even a butler of Hastings she had ever seen was accompanied with a group of security guards.
Scarlet quietly thought to herself as she continued walking without slowing down her steps.
In no time, she stood in front of Arthur and bowed, saying, "Young Master."
Arthur glanced at her and asked, "Who are you?"
Scarlet immediately replied.
"I'm Scarlet, the one called you about an hour ago. As the representative of the respective Hastings, I'll be responsible for you in Eldora."
Arthur glanced at Scarlet briefly and nodded, saying, "Nice to meet you."
As soon as Scarlet mentioned her name, Arthur knew her identity.
She was the president of one of the largest companies in this city and a successful businesswoman.
It seems that she was the subordinate of Hastings. Arthur supposed.
Scarlet smiled and said, "Please come with me. I have prepared accommodations for you."
On the way, both of them kept silent for a while.
Looking out the car window, Arthur smiled slightly and suddenly asked.
"Are you able to acquire Willingness Company within 10 days?"
Scarlet didn't understand why Arthur asked that all of a sudden.
However, she said confidently, "That's a small case for me."
Perhaps she would never have thought like this if it were two years ago, but she could easily purchase the company at this moment.
Hearing her words, Arthur spoke nothing then.
He would have wanted to use more aggressive method to get it back.
The car continued rolling towards the hotel reserved for Arthur. At that moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Scarlet glanced at the name on the screen, and Arthur immediately saw her face change, becoming somewhat agitated.
She furrowed her eyebrows, a different expression from when talking to him.
However, she quickly pulled over to the side of the road and answered the phone.
On the other end of the line, a man's voice could be heard.
"Madam President, the young miss suddenly fainted and is in critical condition. We are currently at the hospital."
Scarlet furrowed her eyebrows and asked.
"Why did this happen suddenly?"
The man sounded uneasy as he replied.
"We don't know either. The young miss was playing around as usual, but suddenly... The doctors find her condition very strange."
Scarlet immediately said.
"Find the best doctors in this country and bring them to me, no matter the cost. Keep an eye on her at the hospital. I'll be there as soon as possible."
The man immediately responded, "Understood, Madam President."
Scarlet angrily hung up the phone. Her eyes were filled with worry and impatience, making her temper even more daring.
But at this moment, she suddenly remembered someone else in the car.
Scarlet looked back and immediately faced Arthur's deep eyes as if they could see through everything.
She seemed taken aback for a moment, then quickly lowered her head.
"I'm sorry for being loud just now. My younger sister suddenly fainted. She has been taken to the hospital and is currently in critical condition. I am her only family member, and I must go to the hospital immediately. I will take you to the hotel, but can we go to the hospital first? It will only take a little time..."
In a soft voice, she said.
Scarlet lowered her head, waiting for Arthur's decision.
She knew her request was foolish. Perhaps someone from a prestigious family like Arthur wouldn't accept it.
Arthur silently looked at Scarlet, smiled and said.
"You don't have to worry. Let's go to the hospital first."
Upon hearing Arthur's words, Scarlet was surprised.
She thought Arthur was a really kind and reasonable person, totally different from others of prestigious families that she had ever met.
He only saw Scarlet's grateful look, and then she quickly stepped on the gas pedal, driving faster than before to get to the hospital.
Arthur wasn't a kind-hearted person, but he wasn't cruel either. Currently, he doesn't have any urgent matters to attend to.
Moreover, he was truly curious about the illness that had left the doctors baffled...
Arthur looked out the car window as the scenery whizzed like the wind.
He smiled slightly, his finger caressing the silver ring on his right middle finger.

However, her face was pale and beads of sweat ran down her forehead in a frenzy, with rapid breath and erratic heartbeat. She was Scarlet's younger sister, Bella. However, Bella's illness was genuinely peculiar. The doctors had never seen anything like it before, making it impossible to diagnose and treat. At that moment, the door opened and Dr. John walked in, followed by a group of assistants. As soon as the doctors saw John, they immediately displayed expressions of joy. They crowded around him, praising and flattering him. "Dr. John, you've finally arrived. Bella's condition is truly peculiar. We have never encountered such a ca

Bella suddenly had an allergic reaction that her body convulsed violently and incessantly. The doctors in the room gasped in shock. The blood vessels on her body suddenly protruded, appearing thick and black, contrasting with her fair skin, creating a gruesome sight. She continued to convulse, and her mouth widely opened as if gasping for air. The heart rate monitor beeped alarmingly. Scarlet, the tough woman, screamed at this moment. With anger, she rushed forward, grabbing John by the collar, and demanded. "What have you done, you wretch?! What's happening to Bella?!" John's face was filled with fear, and the rest of the doctors in the room were terrified too. John looked at Scarlet in panic, cold sweat running down his forehead. He stammered. "N...no, I...I don't know..." Scarlet, without hesitation, pushed him away with force. John fell to the ground, his back in pain. Before he could react, Scarlet's cold voice rang out. "You idiot!

Soon, Bella's face regained its rosy complexion on the bed, but she remained unconscious due to her weak condition. Scarlet could finally let go of her worries and sat by the bedside, gently caressing her sister's forehead with affection. It was serene and peaceful time! However, not everyone was happy. Arthur turned around and looked at the pale-faced Dr. John, teasingly saying. "Dr. John, isn't it time for you to fulfill your bet now?" Upon hearing Arthur's words, John's face turned red, and he vehemently denied. "What bet? I have never made any bet with you!" For the sake of his pride and feeble self-esteem, he even refused to apologize. Since that was the case, Arthur couldn't easily let him off the hook. Initially, he thought an apology from John would be enough. However, not only was John lacking in medical skills, but also his medical ethics were poor. "Whether you agree or not, you can no longer practice medicine. Find another profession!" Determined to protect

Scarlet was almost as tall as Arthur with the high heels. She glanced around disdainfully like a queen, though in deed, she's really the only queen here. The manager quickly bowed low and explained. "Boss, I have explained to them thoroughly, but they still insisted on entering this room..." Scarlet looked at him dissatisfied, speaking no words. The manager trembled and hastily said, "I understand! Boss." The people in front of them were stunned. They never expected that the person in this room was Scarlet Stacy, one of the most influential figures in the city. If they had known, they definitely wouldn't have caused trouble here! Raymond couldn't help but curse Jacob and Mrs. William for their stupidity in his mind. Additionally, he was jealous that Arthur could dine with Scarlet Stacy.

He approached, took hold of Arthur, and then looked towards Emma, smiling as he said, "Alright, I'll take care of this little one; you may go."In reality, the manager wasn't particularly patient, nor was he a gentle person. However, when dealing with potential "harvestable" products, he was always required to be careful. After all, he was the one raising these children, knowing what they needed to grow up.Hearing this, Emma happily left without any worries.

Chapter 250: The Crack Reappears
The body in front of Arthur shattered into pieces, with fragments of flesh and skin shooting towards Arthur, but they couldn't completely reach him as his shield blocked them.Expressionless, Arthur retracted his sword, coldly saying, "Fake again, too troublesome."Indeed, it was another fake; it wasn't a real abyss. However, Arthur could sense the power that had approached his body closely in the recent encounter. Perhaps that was a significant part of the abyss, similar to a detached limb.It could be that the abyss was dying, but it quickly transferred its energy to another body to continue its existence. Arthur thought itwas not entirely wrong; the recent encounter was not a genuine abyss, but it was still a significant part of the abyss.The abyss was now hiding in a corner within the darkness, with blood-red eyes dripping with fresh blood. At this moment, the figure became increasingly frail and uncontrollable, with blood gushing out wildly.Despite this, the figure was rec

The colossal dark arrow collided with the sphere of sharp spikes, immediately creating a tremendous explosion of energy. The ground kept trembling, sharp fragments scattered everywhere, and the shockwave from the explosion alone could be lethal to an ordinary person.In the silent space, after a while, the sound of footsteps echoed, accompanied by heavy, triumphant breathing.The giant figure of the abyss approached the debris field. At this moment, the figure had undergone a massive transformation. Anyone who saw him now would likely struggle to hold back their nausea.The figure's body remained large, but the flesh seemed to melt, sagging to the ground as the figure was dragged along.The melted flesh revealed the grotesque skeleton beneath, with a back covered in sharp spikes, long arms reaching down to the legs, and twisted, bizarrely shaped feet.Especially disturbing was the figure's face, as the skeletal structure appeared incomplete, with half of the head shattered, exposin

At this moment, Arthur truly resembled a person of fire, flames roaring on his body, incinerating all the creatures around him.Beneath a chaotic crack, the screams reverberated, causing excruciating pain to anyone's ears. Arthur, however, seemed oblivious to it all.He swung his sword against the frenzied spikes attacking him. Yet, these spikes seemed to have received some commanding order as they recklessly lunged toward Arthur, unaffected by the hellfire that engulfed them.One after another, spikes hurled themselves at him, seemingly endless. The abyssal realm beneath was evidently dissatisfied with his fiery onslaught, desiring to pull him down as swiftly as possible.Moreover, these spikes were numerous and seemingly fearless of death. Eventually, Arthur's flames revealed a gap.Seizing the opportunity, a spike swiftly maneuvered, grabbing hold of Arthur's ankle and aggressively pulling him down. However, another spike was quickly sliced into pieces, and many others were co
