It was nearly 20 billion!

Despite that, that person actually said that he wanted to annex these industries for only 200 million dollars. He even threatened to close down the businesses to that end. To Tyne, this was simply an act of robbery!

However, it was obvious that Ocean Group was intentionally being as shameless as they possibly could.

There was a round of applause after the robber finished his speech.

On the other hand, Tomas looked to the side at Fred, who had been smiling all along. He asked with an expression that was half-amused and half-threatening, "Mr. Hoffman, what do you think?"

"What do I think?"

Smiling lightly, Fred replied, "The industries under Fantastic Group are worth 20 billion dollars but you want to annex them for 200 million, Mr. Brume? Were my ears deceiving me or did you miscalculate?

"You did not hear it wrong, of course, Mr. Hoffman! However...we didn’t miscalculate either!" Tomas said with a smile.

That smile was making it clear that Fantastic Gr

    Will Ocean Tower collapse?The members of Ocean Group who were laying on the ground could not help but be stunned when they heard what Fred said. They could not understand what Fred was implying.Tomas looked at Fred directly with a foolish expression on his face. "How could my Ocean Tower collapse?" he asked."Oh, I think it will!"Fred smiled and added, "And my words are always accurate!”"You…”Hearing this, Tomas finally understood what Fred meant!Fred actually wanted to... wanted to tear down Ocean Tower that he had built with his own hands?Was he crazy?Or was he bluffing?Without a doubt, Ocean Tower was indeed Tomas's lifeblood! Since Ocean Group’s establishment, Tomas spent just two years developing the headquarters from the small workshop it was to its current scale.It was not because of his great ability, or because he was some business prodigy. Rather, it was because of his backer!He had a solid backer in Sea City’s court whose words carried major weight!

    After he said that, Fred looked at Stellar who was standing beside him.Stellar immediately took out a walkie-talkie and said loudly, "The Great One has given his orders, bring it down!!!"Boom!The earth shook the moment he said that!From what Tomas could see with his naked eyes, he spotted five steel behemoths with hammers hanging from them, slowly emerging and then approaching Ocean Tower."This, this is impossible! This...this..."He saw this and looked at Fred who was standing with his hands behind his back. Tomas finally realized then that Fred was not joking.He was really going to tear down Ocean Tower!Just... how could he? How dare he?Had he no idea who the person behind the Ocean Tower was? Or what background they had?"You’re crazy! You’re a lunatic!" "Do you know how many people are near Ocean Tower? How many buildings? As if you have the gall to do it?" Tomas exclaimed."Ten times!"Fred smiled lightly and said, "Anyone who is affected will receive ten tim

    South of the city, the Hanks Villa."Valerie Cadman, that little slut. F*ck, I was just one step away and now she’s acting coy with me!"Yousef pushed the door open with a displeased expression as he snorted coldly.Last night, he and Valerie did everything they were supposed to do. They were just short of the final touch, but Valerie insisted on waiting until after the wedding. Of course, Yousef would return disappointed."What's supposed to be yours is already yours. As if there’s any rush?”The head of the Hank family, Neville, looked at his son's anxious expression and immediately snorted coldly, "Look at his!" He threw the newspaper to him.Look at this?What was he supposed to look at?Yousef grabbed the newspaper nonchalantly to read it, only to see that the headline on the front page happened to be about Ocean Tower's demolition the day before, accompanied by large-scale photos and a report.“This is…”Yousef was frowning slightly. Neville immediately explained, "Fred

    The Great One—Frederick Hoffman—was the pinnacle of the world!Stellar would not comment much about what the Cadmans did before since Fred owed the late Mr. Cadman a favor.However, this situation was humiliating Fred greatly, humiliating the extraordinary Great One who resided in the world Stellar and everyone else lived in!How could he stand for this?Tyne panicked the moment she heard what he said.She had witnessed with her own eyes how Stellar immediately tore down Ocean Tower after Fred gave the order.He had been so incomparably domineering. Not to mention, during this period of her being Fred's secretary, she more or less figured out that Fred was more than just the simple chairman of Fantastic Group!This made her believe completely that Stellar would be able to do whatever he said he would!Hence, she immediately interjected. “Mr. Hoffman, Valerie…she might just be momentarily confused!""Momentarily confused?"Stellar snorted coldly. "She hasn’t even divorced the

    "Great One, the investigation is almost complete!"Stellar's work efficiency was incredible!Fred asked him to find out why Yousef had the gall to hold a wedding with Valerie when he knew Fred's identity.It took only two days for Stellar to already have an answer."Tell me!" Fred ordered coldly when he noted this.Stellar immediately nodded and replied, "Yousef was following a suggestion given to him by his father, Neville Hanks! He was likely worried that you would target them after the Grahams’ collapse, so he got Yousef to approach Valerie using marriage as bait. They want to lure the Cadmans and bind the family to them. On top of that, they also discovered a secret!""What secret?" Fred asked again.Stellar was slightly hesitant, but he quickly uttered three words, "Peach Blossom Village!"Boom!Almost the exact moment Stellar said ‘Peach Blossom Village’, the precious mahogany desk before Fred exploded. The once-clean office had also been affected by an invisible wave of

    "I’ve never attended my wife's wedding with another man before. Why shouldn’t I go?"He smiled coldly before turning around, opening the door, and walking out……Eight in the evening. Resplendent.The place was already decorated with lanterns and colored banners, creating a strong festive atmosphere.While the wedding had not started yet, it was still the wedding of Yousef Hanks—the eldest son of the Hanks Family. Thus, the people seated in the wedding banquet hall at this moment were naturally all prominent figures of the Sea City business community.The more people there were, the more the gossip mill ran.A man near the main table smiled and said, "Did you hear? This wedding between Mr. Hanks and Miss Cadman is an extraordinary one. Aside from the fact that it’s held in the most luxurious place in Sea City, I also heard that the chairman of the Fantastic Group has been invited to witness the wedding!""Truly? The Hanks are already so extraordinary in Sea City. How did they e

    Who was making such a loud racket at this time?Everyone was shocked when the wedding that had been proceeding smoothly was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise at the door.When they looked over, however, each of them began wearing expressions of ridicule."Isn't that Valerie's good-for-nothing husband, Fred? The guy looks like he's here to blow things up!""That's only natural! Valerie hasn’t divorced him yet here she is getting married to Mr. Hanks. He’s now a legitimate cuckold. Of course, he’d come!""He's here! But what's the use of him coming? Everyone in Sea City knows he’s trash and a wimp. Even if he’s here, does he dare challenge Mr. Hanks?"It was obvious that all the guests present knew about Valerie’s marital status. Sea City was only that big, after all.Despite knowing this, they did not dare make irresponsible remarks about Valerie and Yousef’s unreasonable behavior given the Hanks’s great reputation in Sea City.However, things were different for Fred.The wi

    He…he actually broke it?Agh!!!Fingers were said to link to the heart! Karen, who had been shouting abuse like the shrill housewife, was now cradling her finger as she crouched down before Fred. She was screaming."You presumptuous man!"You animal, how dare you!"Every Cadman stepped forward when they saw this, prepared to teach Fred a lesson.Fred, however, was completely unfazed. He was even frowning.That was because four men in red military uniforms had already stepped out from both his left and right at this moment before the Cadmans. "Damn!"Despite not knowing where these men came from, there were only four people. The Cadmans paid them no need and stepped forward immediately.They instantly stopped the next second, however, as cold sweat dropped from their foreheads.That was because the four men had whipped out guns from their waists at this moment and aimed them at the heads of the Cadmans who were at the forefront."Ah… Sorry! We're sorry! Sorry!"The membe

    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 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

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 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
