A helicopter came down and landed in front of the motel, with more underlings of Denver getting out.Sheryl personally escorted both Denver and Catherine into the vehicle.“What about the innocent people that were killed?” Denver asked Sheryl.“We will compensate them with some money,” Sheryl was quick to reply as she swiftly removed the bullet from his palm. “However, your style is to make our enemies reap rewards for their deeds. Good or bad. But the problem is that we don’t know who the culprit behind these assassins is. They belong to your sixth brother Tyron, but Tyron could easily say that a few of his men acted on their own.”“I noticed that they had the gun and ax symbol,” Denver pointed out, staring at his bloody palm, frowning a little. “That’s what the officer also had when he tried to shoot me a few days back.”“An officer tried to shoot you?” Catherine was shocked. She was wrapping a bandage around his palm. “When?”“It was taken care of, Cat. Don’t worry.”Despite what D

Diane’s face turned ghostly pale. “N-No. I don’t know what you’re talking about. What diamond card? What money?”“We didn’t come here to argue with you, Diane,” Catherine didn’t even want to call this woman her sister anymore. “Whether you like it or not, we’ll take back what you have taken from Denver.”Catherine glanced at Denver.“Do it,” she said.Denver then made a phone call to Bianca. “You can transfer the money back to my account now.”“Give me a few seconds,” Bianca, the vice president of the Den bank, said, sounding as though she was thrilled to do it. “I’m going to make her cry tears of blood!”A few moments later, Bianca gave him the green signal. “It’s done.”“Thanks. I’ll talk to you later,” Denver said and ended the call.“You can check your account balance now, Diane,” Catherine said.Diane reluctantly took her mobile out and checked the balance. She was so shocked she dropped the mobile and moved back a few steps. “No! This isn’t real! It must be a dream! This can’t b

Diane went for Catherine’s face without a shred of hesitation.Catherine rolled to the side in the last fraction of a second.Diane’s knee still hit part of her head, making Catherine hiss in pain.“You dodged that?” Diane smirked with amusement as he put her foot on the diamond card. “You are lucky.”Denver’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Diane…” his hand started to shiver with rage. Just how low is Diane going to stoop?Catherine couldn’t get the card in time, so she appeared annoyed. “I know you better than anyone else, so I’m not just lucky.”“Is that so?” Diane picked up the card. “This card is useless now, isn’t it? You came all the way here because you want to take this card from Denver, right? In the end, you’re also after his money, but he can’t see through your facade because Denver is innocent.”Catherine frowned in anger and disgust. “You’re right about one thing. Denver is innocent. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have put so much effort into pleasing you for the past two years, eve

The Falcon Fortress was built on hills and occupied an area of nine square kilometers.The outer fort alone spanned nearly three and half square kilometers, and this was where all the humdrum happened.In the inner fort was where the exciting trade happened.The central fort was off-limits to outsiders, unless they were invited.Currently, the air around the inner fort region was thick with ambition, a heady mix of expensive perfume and even more expensive ambition.Many private jets were landing on the runways one after another, and the helicopters also had special helipads built for landing.“It is 2:32 AM,” Sheryl checked her mobile and smiled. “You did a great job bringing us here on time. We might even have enough time to change into better clothes.”“I didn’t want to lose my hair, or my wife would divorce me, so I tried my best, and the winds also helped us,” the pilot replied.“Would your wife really divorce you if you lose your hair?” Denver asked him rather innocently.“I don

The auction hall was a spectacle of opulence, whether it be the silk clothes of the bidders, or the stupidly rich watches and the priceless jewels adorning their bodies.The bidding price escalated with dizzying speed.Tonight’s crown jewel was the Millennium Herb, a mere single, gnarled root, pulsing with an ethereal inner light. Its rumored properties—immortality, boundless vitality, the ability to unlock untold secrets of the universe—were the stuff of legends.Everybody sitting in the hall wanted to get their hands on this herb, believing that they could rewrite history with it.Catherine felt a jolt of pure adrenaline as the bidding price went from 300 million dollars to 700 million dollars.What’s even more shocking was that the number kept soaring, fueled by desperation and the sheer force of ego.The bidding eventually climbed into the billions.A tense silence settled over nearly half of the hall as some contenders had secretly given up on the item while others still went for
