Henry asked, "You didn't forget about Luna, did you?" Scarlett's face darkened slightly. "Of course I didn't forget that bitch. Because of her, the Driscoll family still can't move freely in Blumedale. But this time, no matter how capable she is, she won't be able to stop my plan. Truth is, I was the one behind the parasite poisoning incident in Gabo Creek." She continued, "And now, Derek's chief of staff, Chantelle, is already heading over to investigate. This is my first step in taking Derek down. Hank, that pervert in Special Ops, is going to help me finish the job perfectly." Henry clapped his hands, his expression full of admiration. "Scarlett, now I believe you might just have what it takes to sit at the top of the Union. Your setup, one move leading into the next… I have to say, I'm impressed." Scarlett looked even more pleased with herself. Her eyes swept across the room and landed on Andrew. She asked, "So, how's the hypnosis going on that little bastard?" Henry nodd

[Chantelle, watch out for Hank. I'm on my way!] Andrew sent the text message and quickly turned off his phone. The next steps were clear. First, find a way to leave Goldridge, and second, take Eric with him. If Eric did not cooperate, he would knock him out and drag him away. Once he met up with Chantelle, it would be time to take Hank down. Before all that, Andrew had one more thing to consider: whether it was worth the risk. He was thinking about making a trip to the Yeagers and revealing everything about Scarlett and Henry's plans. The problem was that the Yeagers already saw Andrew as an enemy. Even if he went to tip them off, it probably would not help. He might even get himself killed on sight. Truthfully, Andrew did not care what happened to the Yeagers. However, the people he most wanted to take down were Henry and Scarlett. And as the saying went, your enemy's enemy would be your friend. If he could use the Yeagers to strike a heavy blow against Henry, it would mak

Eric said, "No, Hunter would definitely be more handsome than you, way more charming too! Since we were kids, he was the best-looking guy in all of Goldridge. I was happy just following him around, even if it meant being his sidekick and doing whatever he told me to." Andrew wanted to snap, thinking, "Alright, that's enough. I'm not your beloved Hunter. I'm more handsome than he ever was anyway!" Eric withdrew the knife and let out a twisted little laugh. He mumbled, "Henry, you think I betrayed Dad just for you. But the truth is, not only did I betray him, but I'm also dragging you to hell with me. I hate all of you, every single one of you." Suddenly, he clutched his head and started sobbing again. "Dad, I failed you. I really did! I didn't want to kill you, but I couldn't stop myself! I loved Hunter. When he died, my whole world went dark. So now I have to kill you. I'm sorry, Dad!" Andrew really wanted to pat his head and say, "Stop crying. I'll punish you myself on Mr. Tho

Andrew scoffed. "Quit glaring. You're no match for me, and the last two times I spared you were out of respect for Mr. Yeager Senior. If I hadn't held back, you'd be half-dead by now." Matthew clenched his jaw but did not say a word. Truth was, he was scared of Andrew now. Adam stood calmly, hands behind his back, and said, "Andrew, just say it. What exactly do you want? If you can't give us something solid, you won't be leaving here alive." Andrew let out a cold laugh. "Sir, don't try to scare me. I'm a coward. When someone threatens me, I tend to forget everything I was about to say. But there's one thing I do remember. "Henry and Scarlett are already planning to take down the Yeagers. I know you're confident, and you probably think they're just digging their own graves. But I can promise you this: when the time comes, your entire family will end up six feet under." Adam fell silent. He did not trust Andrew, but he could not afford to ignore him either. Matthew snapped im

Andrew did not dare stay at the Yeager estate any longer. After saying everything he needed to say, he immediately got up and quickly returned to the villa on Mount Zircon. To his surprise, Matthew actually sent someone to escort him part of the way. Of course, it was not out of kindness, but because Andrew had just handed the Yeagers a piece of intel that could determine life or death. At this point, both sides were stuck on the same sinking ship. If they did not paddle together, Henry would drown them all. Andrew quietly slipped back into the villa. He climbed in through the window and made his way toward the couch, where he was usually hypnotized, ready to play dumb and act like he had never left. He had only been gone for less than an hour. Judging by how busy Henry had been lately, he was not likely to be back so soon. As for Eric, he usually spent his days lying around like a hibernating bear. However, just as Andrew tiptoed toward the living room, he spotted a familiar

Matthew blinked. "That saying… how come I've never heard it before?" Adam snorted. "Of course, you haven't. You've probably never been spoiled by an older woman in your life! As they said, the older the woman, the more charming and wonderful she is! "Joseph's just a hot-blooded young punk, and Scarlett's the type who's clever, powerful, and knows exactly how to reel someone in. Taking control of him wouldn't even be a challenge." Then, almost involuntarily, Matthew muttered, "Don't tell me… back in your day, you had a taste of older women too?" Every member of the Yeagers stood there with their mouths hanging open, completely shocked by Matthew's question. Even Matthew realized he had screwed up the moment the words left his mouth. Adam was over 100 years old. Was he really the person to joke with like that? To his surprise, Adam simply stroked his beard and smirked. "Take a guess." That wink and cheeky grin made Matthew seriously wonder if he was hitting his second pu

The door was locked from the inside, and only Joseph had the key. Adam scoffed, slammed his palm against the knob, and shattered the lock with a loud crack. Matthew took the lead and walked into the room. As soon as he entered, he was hit by a strong musky smell. Adam muttered grimly, "That little bastard's been draining himself like this? And he still thinks he's training for martial arts?" Matthew gave an awkward laugh. "Don't be too harsh. Every young man goes through his wild phase." Adam walked over and picked up a tablet off the desk. He stared at it for a while, visibly frustrated, then set it down with a grumble. As expected, modern gadgets were not his thing. Matthew felt somewhat proud and volunteered. "Why don't you sit back. I'll look around and see what this kid is up to!" When he opened the tablet, he was immediately greeted by a video of Joseph wrapped around Scarlett. Adam watched with fury, his fists crackling audibly. The smile on Matthew's face also

Scarlett had already figured out Joseph's weakness. She reached down and grabbed him below the belt, and Joseph gasped sharply, completely dazed, instantly losing all sense of place and reason. From that moment on, whatever Scarlett said, he nodded along without hesitation. Eric appeared silently, stepping out in front of them. Without a word, he slapped Joseph across the face twice until his cheeks were flushed red and his mind was spinning, then began his hypnosis. Already a lust-driven fool, Joseph was no match for Eric's mind tricks. His willpower was pitiful compared to Andrew's, so Eric barely had to try before Joseph's mind was completely hijacked. With a single command, the suggestion was planted: poison the two Yeager elders. Thrilled, dazed, and with a lingering headache, Joseph eventually stumbled out of Scarlett's house. Henry walked in with a slow clap, laughing. "Ms. Driscoll, you're something else!" Scarlett slipped on her fur coat and replied, "Mr. Fische

Chapter 1889
Andrew would never have expected that after all these years, the only person in Goldridge who cared about his safety would be Rowan. However, the lady standing before him now was completely different from the bratty little girl from five years ago. Her intoxicating fragrance, soft little hands, a smooth face, and those long legs that could make any man drool. Everything about her screamed that she was a real beauty. Andrew remained perfectly still because he never expected Rowan to secretly come to rescue him. However, if he left with her now, everything he had worked for would be wasted. "Come on, let's go! What's wrong with you?" Rowan whispered urgently. Seeing Andrew's blank, dull look, she began to panic. Then, a terrifying thought struck her, draining the color from her face. She gasped and mumbled, "Phantom Mirage… No… Don't tell me you've been brainwashed by Phantom Mirage! Grandma told me that Mr. Thornton's adopted son, Eric… that bastard's hypnosis technique is t

Meanwhile, over at the Yeager estate in Goldridge, everyone had been woken up in the dead of night and ordered to stay alert. No one was allowed to sleep. Over 500 guards were now fully armed and ready for war. If necessary, they would paint the ground red with blood. Adam slapped Joseph across the face twice. Joseph was tied up like a prisoner, tears brimming in his eyes. He sobbed and begged, "I messed up! I swear I won't do it again! Please, just give me one more chance!" The poor guy was barely into adulthood, yet he was already begging for his life. Adam glared at him coldly. "You worthless brat. You were willing to betray your entire family because you couldn't think with the right head! Why the hell should I let you live? So you can turn around and destroy the family from within?" Joseph was miserable. "I was young and stupid! I didn't mean for any of this to happen! It's just… my junk, it has a mind of its own!" Adam raised his hand to slap him again, but stopped
