The three Kingsley members with large earlobes scanned the factory, searching for the new recruits hiding in the shadows.Aside from Liam, the new recruits in the police force were terrified, having never faced such a situation before. When they saw Kingsley's people approaching, they instinctively tried to flee rather than fight.Dodging a knife slash from Kingsley's leader, Flora yelled, "Ivy, protect the new recruits!""Got it!" Ivy nodded, quickly kicking away her opponent and running to the back.This time, there were three new recruits, including Liam, who had come with Ron. They hid in different places. Two had already been chased off, leaving only Liam still in her spot, not moving.One of Kingsley's men with large earlobes reached into the corner where Liam was hiding. The next second, his fierce expression turned to panic as he struggled to pull his hand back, but couldn't. A knife slashed down on his neck, causing him to close his eyes and fall forward.Liam stood in shock.

Jeannie happily ran over, noticing a note on the table."President Demneri, you can't drink Coca every day, and fruit isn't a proper lunch. You still need to eat proper meals," the note said, with a smiley face drawn at the bottom.Jeannie giggled, her earlier frustration dissipating like smoke. While cursing Ricard for being a tease, she joyfully picked up her chopsticks. Without even sitting down, she grabbed a piece of rib, the tender meat falling off the bone effortlessly, filling her mouth with savory delight.Like a little girl enjoying her food, Jeannie used her hands to grab the ribs, licking her fingers clean afterward. The three dishes and a bowl of rice were finished quickly.After eating, Jeannie leaned back in her chair, contentedly patting her belly and letting out a burp.Startled, she covered her mouth like a frightened rabbit, her big eyes darting around before she laughed softly. At that moment, she was no longer the cold, stern president but just a happy, ordinary g

Soon, word spread that Jeannie’s husband was just a live-in son-in-law, accepting Lies' challenge out of fear of losing face. Nearly everyone believed Ricard was seeking his own death.It was getting dark. A floodlight turned on, illuminating the area as if it were daylight.The vertical rock face had a few footholds chiseled out. The cliff was about two hundred meters high, and the club owner had previously organized rock climbing competitions here. Anyone who could reach the top in an hour would receive a huge reward, but very few had managed it, indicating the difficulty.Looking at the sparse footholds, the mere thought of climbing without safety ropes was terrifying. A single misstep could be fatal!Lies, dressed in protective gear and equipped with his usual climbing tools, appeared very experienced.Meanwhile, Ricard, still in his suit and dress shoes, stood in front of the cliff without any protective gear or equipment, seemingly lost in thought.The difference in their prepar

And for civilian cars? First, there’s a small discrepancy in specifications right from the factory. Daily use wears down the car's hardware, and the tires, affecting its performance. Yet, if someone can still master its limits, it’s extremely impressive.The middle-aged man shook his head and stepped away from the window. "No need to watch anymore. It’s decided. The GTR is sure to lose. With such cornering techniques, its tires will burst before reaching the finish line."While Jame and the middle-aged man talked, the two cars on the track had navigated the nine consecutive curves. The Mercedes GT, initially trailing fifty meters behind the GTR, was now closely following it.Ricard floored the accelerator, glancing briefly at the GTR’s tires and murmured, "The tires are severely worn, reducing the grip. It won't be able to pull away from me on the straightaways."Ricard leaned back in his seat, one hand on the window, supporting his head, and the other on the steering wheel, looking m

"Irena, you've really ruined me this time! I will make it clear to the family that if my life is ruined, you won't have it easy either!" Amy glared at Irena before standing up and walking away quickly.Irena turned pale with fear. If her cousin really took the fall because of her, her life within the family would be miserable.Lisbeth stormed out of the spa, taking a deep breath to suppress her anger. She realized she had lost her temper a bit earlier, but she just couldn't control it, not just because of Amy's issues but also because of her own feelings.Lisbeth couldn't deny that after hearing the news of Ricard's marriage, her mood had been terrible, so bad that she didn't want to care about anything, just wanted to get drunk and fall into a deep, forgetful sleep.Lisbeth was unwilling to let go. At the orphanage, Ricard's presence had already entered her heart. Although their interactions were few, everything Ricard did seemed perfectly fitting to her, giving her a sense of spirit
