"Quintin, do you think that person will really come?”It was late at night, on the banks of the River Loone in San Hanna.It had been a quiet night, but at this moment, Yves, Quintin, and Lyall, the chairmen of the three major companies of San Hanna—Glossky, Midcloud, and Eastin—were gathered here at this moment with a group of subordinates behind them.It was clear that they did not come to enjoy the night view at River Loone, however. Instead, they were waiting for other people.However, they had been waiting here for three hours already and were obviously a little anxious now.Most anxious of all was Yves, the leader. Doubt and uncertainty could be seen in his eyes."Don't worry!"When Quintin heard Yves ask that, he confidently replied, "Since they already agreed, they’ll definitely come! Anyway, the benefits we’re giving them this time are enough to get them to move!”"They also said on the phone earlier that they’d already gotten off the plane and asked us to wait here. I
"Me? Be the boss? Mr. Hoffman, you…are you pulling my leg?”Preparations had begun throughout the entirety of Jardin Province for the upcoming Chamber of Chamber Alliance while Fred sat in his office at Fantastic Group Headquarters in Sea CIty without the slightest hint of worry.Stellar and Shaun were accompanying him. Tyne was rooted to her spot with a surprised expression on her face. She looked to be at a loss.This was because Fred had said that he was ready to invest in the establishment of a new company and that he would like Tyne to be the person in charge!"This... This is not okay! ”The blush on Tyne’s face reached the base of her neck when she saw the smile in Fred’s eyes.The turmoil that came with the pregnancy farce had finally passed. Also, with how busy Fred had been lately, the two of them were meeting each other less often and managed to avoid the awkwardness.However, Fred had all of sudden wanted to start a company for her, and Tyne could not help her though
Not hearing Tyne say anything, Fred asked again, "Is it not enough? What about five billion? ”"Enough, enough! Five hundred million is enough!” Tyne hurriedly stopped him.She was afraid that Fred would add up to tens of billions if he continued.Fred just smiled and replied, "It's okay. If it’s not enough, just throw a number at Stellar.”Stellar also immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss Adams. We have enough money.”Tyne was instantly speechless.What else could she say?To be rich was to be headstrong!However, funding was solved with this, and judging from Fred's attitude, Fantastic Group’s resources were for her to use.Just like this, Tyne suddenly felt ambitious.It did not seem that bad to be a successful career woman! A-Although she would be relying on Fred's money, but..."Oh yes!"When Tyne’s thoughts were running astray again, Fred suddenly spoke up. "Tyne, I have no worries about your business capabilities, but since this is your first time with the
Mr. Gordon?Tyne could not help but frown deeply when she saw the man who had been pushed in.It was Mr. Gordon!He was the director who tricked Opal and Wanda into a karaoke place on the premise of attending auditions to accompany Kai and his group.Tyne never expected Fred to actually let her use such a heinous man.“Mr. Hoffman, this is…”Just as Tyne was about to say something, Fred waved his hand with a smile and cut across her. "I know. I just wanted to show him to you. If you think you can use him by all means!”With that, Fred calmly turned his gaze to Mr. Gordon who was still in a state of horror. The man knelt on weak legs.For someone like Mr. Gordon who dared lay a finger on his family, Fred had always been quick to dispose of them.However, Mr. Gordon was still here today mainly because Stellar investigated him when he was preparing to deal with him. He found out that despite this man not being famous, he had quite a lot of connections in the entertainment indust
"You... What did you say? ”Sibyl Stone could barely believe her ears as she looked at Fred and his indifferent expression.Indeed!Sibyl, the lady of the Stones family. The proud lady who was loved by many!Fred did not know about all this, though. Even if he did, he would not care. He repeated coldly, "Get out!" He was angry!Absolutely furious!Sibyl's beautiful face instantly turned ugly.Disregarding the large family that supported her, Sibyl herself was a bright and beautiful woman with a stunning face. Coupled with her slender yet curvy figure, any man in Astra would have been instantly smitten if she were to get into their cars.Which was why Sibyl thought it would be Fred’s lifelong honor that she was now sitting in his car.Despite that, Fred was actually asking her to get out.How could she accept this?“I’m already treating you with respect here. What else do you want? Do you know who I am?” Sibyl shouted in annoyance.However, Fred was indifferent.This was
Crafty and unruly?The kind who would not let anything slide?A small smile appeared on Fred’s face when he heard what Yorick said.Fred had noticed Sibyl’s defiant expression when he left back then.However, the Stones were not worth his attention at all.Putting aside her crafty and unruly personality for the time being, the fact that she did not let anything slide…“Could she be more vengeful than me?” Fred looked at Yorick and asked with a smile.Yorick was abruptly stunned when he heard this. He then shook his head helplessly and said, "Great One, you...you're not making fun of me, are you?”Even though this was Yorick’s first time meeting Fred, the owner of Fantastic Group, there was no way he had not heard the rumors surrounding this manFred became well-known back then because he was someone who did not let any wrongs against him go unanswered.Fred had directly broken through the eight warlord gentries with his individual power and unified the entire world of warlord
Elaine had pulled a few strings to contact the buyer and was therefore not certain about their background. Of course, Elaine could not be blamed for this.As much as Fred had discovered, the Ryes' business and prestige in Jardin Province had been greatly affected ever since her father was seriously injured.Not only that, but now that the Chamber of Commerce Alliance was about to convene, many people were wondering whether the Ryes could maintain their status considering their current situation. Naturally, not many people would approach the Ryes as closely as they did before. Therefore, Elaine had likely expended a lot of effort to contact this buyer.Although he understood, Fred still thought that it was necessary for them to learn about their purchaser.So, Fred immediately looked at Yorick who was waiting on the side, and asked, "Do you know anything about Red Tower Enterprise?”"Yes! I’ll prepare the information for you, Great One!”As the person in charge of the Fantasti
The seller of Payne Hotel was here?Tilden, who had been flattering Sybil at the moment, was slightly taken aback when he heard the assistant's abrupt words.Shortly after, he waved to the assistant impatiently. "I don’t want to meet them! Ask them to leave!"What could be more important to him than coaxing his goddess at the moment? However, Sybil frowned slightly and asked, "Payne Hotel? The one in San Hanna?""Yeah yeah!"Tilden quickly nodded in response. "You know the hotel, Sybil?""Of course, I do!"Sybil gave a faint nod before she continued, "It was Prince Ryes' family who contacted me about the ownership transfer. But it's just a hotel, and it's in San Hanna. The Stones aren't interested!""You're not interested in it, Sibyl? I was about to buy it for you so you could enjoy the scenery!"Frustration instantly appeared on Tilden's face when he said this. He then shot a glare directly at the assistant and huffed, "Shoo shoo! Tell them I don't want the hotel anymore.
Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei
Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something! What if our luck was changed ju
What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w
Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl
"What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug
"No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a
"Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
