Roselyn and Edward were now in the car. Roselyn's face looked upset. She did not expect her old friend to be so annoying like that.Roselyn turned to her husband who was driving. “Does your face still hurt, Ed?”“A little.” Edward looked back at his wife for a moment and then back at the road ahead. "I didn't think that your friend would hit me when we didn't know each other before and had no problems. He was the one who stirred things up first."“I don't know what he meant by doing that myself,” roselyn said with an annoyed face. She turned to her husband. “Ed.”“Hmm ....”“How about we postpone the romantic dinner we had planned until tomorrow?” asked Roselyn hesitantly.Edward smiled. "No problem. It looks like you really need a long rest."“Thanks, Ed.”Edward turned the car he was driving towards the road back home.Upon arriving home, they only found Javier while Lily was nowhere to be found.Roselyn leaned closer to her dad and kissed him on the cheek. "Didn't mommy call you, D
With an annoyed look on her face, Lily continued her rant and said, “If you had given me plenty of money, I wouldn't have bought this insurance company’s product. With a useless son-in-law like you at home, what other choice do I have to make money?”Edward was considered a poor and useless son-in-law. It was fine if he didn’t support the family. But now, Lily felt her son-in-law was laughing at her for making a wrong move by buying insurance from a fraudulent company.Quickly, she said again to Edward, “I’m telling you, keep shouting those slogans to help me, don’t stop even for a moment!”Edward sighed, then nodded and said, “Alright, Mom.”At that moment, some of Lily’s acquaintances approached, looking Edward up and down, then asked Lily, “Lily, is he your son-in-law?”Another acquaintance also scrutinized Edward’s clothing and shook her head, laughing. “Why does he look so bad? He doesn’t look like a son-in-law in any way.”Lily snorted harshly at her friends’ insults about her s
Julian Caldwell smiled and said, “Auntie, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting!”Lily hurriedly said: "Oh, Julian, you are so polite. Auntie didn't even wait for ten minutes. You came so early from the time you promised!"Julian Caldwell smiled and said, “I heard that you were in trouble, so I drove up and ran several red lights along the way just for you, Auntie.”Lily's heart was instantly touched by this young man's gesture, but she still asked with concern, “Isn't it a hassle to run so many red lights?”“No.” Julian Caldwell said calmly: “The traffic team in this city are all acquaintances of mine, and one phone call from me can easily eliminate any violations.”Lily's eyes rounded with admiration for this young master of the Caldwell family.After speaking, Julian Caldwell said again, “Let's talk about you! How much of your money did they steal?"Julian's face was full of confidence.Lily sighed and said, “A total of more than one million dollars has been invested. Previously, an ins
In the entire town of Riverside, everyone knew that Marco Ivanov was the emperor of the underground, and no one dared to mess with him.Marco Ivanov looked at Jonathan Kingsley, smiled approvingly, and said, “Jonathan Kingsley, I didn't expect you to be such a good person. Good! very good! Hahaha ...."Jonathan Kingsley hurriedly said, “Mr. Ivanov, what about the troublesome Mrs. Johnson downstairs?”Marco Ivanov said indifferently: "That bunch of old people don't seem to care about their lives. If they don't listen to your words, I'll organize a lot of my men to come here and teach them a lesson so that they know themselves."Jonathan Kingsley breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “Thank you, Mr. Marco!”Marco Ivanov smiled and said: "In the future, just let go of this kind of dime business. As long as you can make money and can give me half the money, I will help you in any way."Jonathan Kingsley was very surprised, but his face lit up getting such a great favor from the un
When these words came out from the mouth of the strong male subordinate, both Julian Caldwell and Lily were like being struck by lightning!What?!So, the man wearing an all-black suit and shirt standing in front of them was actually Marco Ivanov, the famous underground emperor of the town of Riverside?And they were insulting him so frivolously now?Thinking of this, the faces of the two of them became extremely pale in an instant, cold sweat poured out of their bodies, and they were scared to death.Julian Caldwell reacted the fastest. He thumped and knelt down right in front of Marco Ivanov. While kowtowing, he cried and begged: "Mr. Ivanov, I admit I was wrong. I apologize to you! I was blind and didn't recognize you. I opened my mouth to scold you! These old men and old women have nothing to do with me. Please spare my life!"After he finished speaking, he knelt down, then slapped himself and apologized again. He cried and could only cry.He really didn't expect that the one who
Marco Ivanov trembled worse than when he was shivering with a violent fever. His eyes were fixed with intense fear as he stared at Edward.'So he is the mysterious Mr. Steel? I'll surely die if I don't find out soon,'He leaned a little closer to Edward and hurriedly said: "Mr. Edward, I'm cursed, I'm cursed! I promise I will solve this problem."A chairman like Thomas Brown was enough for him to kneel down and curry favor, and the Marcos family in Edward Steel's power was a supreme existence that made him invisible, and he had to look up all his life.But now, he doesn't know if he can still live, and directly offended the young master of the Marcos family.Thinking of this, Marco Ivanov fixed his eyes on Edward, his legs softened involuntarily, and he knelt in front of Edward, and said with trepidation, "Mr. Edward, I'm sorry, I didn't know she was your mother-in-law, I'm really feeling confused, I apologize to you! Please forgive me!"Everyone present was dumbfounded, seeing Marco
"I don't have relatives like you. You are not my friend either. I have no grievances, no grudges, but you taunted me repeatedly, and even hit me. Now you're asking me to save you? Wake up, and don't dream!"Julian Caldwell instantly felt weak and cried. "Edward, I really know that I have done you wrong. Please help me."Seeing Edward's unhappy expression, Marco Ivanov immediately shouted at his men. "Damn it! Why are you guys doing nothing? Why aren't you doing what I told you to do, huh? Are you looking for death?"Some of his men were immediately shocked, and hurriedly grabbed Julian Caldwell's neck and hair, until a crunching sound was heard.The bystanders looked horrified at the scene. Some covered their faces.Julian Caldwell's mouth was instantly full of blood and some of his teeth looked broken, but Marco Ivanov's men did not stop. Every slap they delivered was hard.Marco Ivanov asked Edward with a smile, "Mr. Edward, are you satisfied with this treatment?"Edward nodded: "Ok
Roselyn starred in surprise at her husband who looked shocked after she told him about Diana Blunt, her friend, working at Marcosta's company."What is it, Ed? Do you know anything about Diana?" Roselyn asked."No." Edward tried to turn his tense face into a more relaxed one. "I was surprised, because I thought the Marcosta company only hired competent employees. As I remember back in college, even his academic grades were very poor."Roselyn chuckled while shaking her head. "Honey, Diana was only with us for a year, after which she moved to an overseas college. Who knows, her brain might turn out to be brilliant there."Edward nodded with a smile. "You're right. Why don't I think in that direction?"Since it was already very late, the couple went to bed. Edward, who felt tired after a long day of accompanying Lily in front of the insurance company, fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. There was no romance tonight.The next day Edward woke up with a better body condition th
