“Bastard!”Even after Donald’s figure disappeared into the night, Victor’s chest was still heaving up and down vigorously. He was clearly still livid.“How on earth did I give birth to such a dimwit? What a great misfortune for my family!” Victor rattled on, his face full of disappointment about Donald.William wanted to comfort Victor, but he didn’t know how to start.After all, Donald was really foolish beyond William’s expectations, and he could fully imagine how frustrated Victor was now.He knew that Donald was prejudiced against him and would definitely try to find trouble with him.But he didn’t expect that Donald would actually barge into Victor’s residence and criticize him right in front of Victor.William didn’t know what to say about his behavior.“William, I’m really sorry. It’s my lack of proper discipline that resulted in my son saying such unpleasant things to you. Please don’t take it to heart!” Victor said to William apologetically.William shook his head. “It’s fine

Once the deed was done, the Lancasters would have no choice but to marry her to him for the sake of covering up the scandal.Unfortunately, after Joel secretly drugged Cecilia’s drink and was about to succeed in his plan, an expert secretly protecting her foiled his plan.Since then, Cecilia has absolutely abhorred Joel.Victor flew into a rage because of this matter, and the Lancasters and the Wallaces almost fell out and went to war.Afterward, the Wallaces paid a tremendous price and even severely punished Joel by stripping him of his position and power as a core descendant.Since then, he had become an alienated figure in the family.At that time, if Joel’s father, the successor of the family, hadn’t begged for mercy from the helmsman, Joel would have probably been kicked out of the family.Now, Joel had finally gotten his grandfather’s permission to woo Cecilia again.As long as he was successful, the Wallaces would value him again and make him a core member.He would also regain

They had obviously been preparing to wash Joel’s car when they suddenly discovered the corpse in the trunk.“Get out of my way!” Joel hollered.The servants, already terrified by the sight of the corpse, immediately scattered and vanished out of sight.Joel walked toward his Maserati, looked into the trunk, and immediately recognized the man stuffed inside to be his loyal follower Kobe.At this moment, Kobe’s eyes, which had long lost their luster, were fixed on Joel.Coupled with his ashen face, he looked extremely terrifying.A sudden chill surged from the bottom of Joel’s feet.He took several steps back, his heart pounding wildly.This man, who had been alive and kicking an hour ago, had turned into a corpse that seemed to have died with indignation in just the blink of an eye. It utterly frightened Joel.It was definitely the closest he had been to death!Kobe… was actually dead!His corpse was even stuffed into the trunk of his car!Who… who did it?Joel’s mind was a mess, but W

Flustered, he wanted to roll up the windows and turn around to flee, but how could he have the time to do so?Before he could start the car, a toned and muscular arm reached into the car through the window to grab his neck and pulled him out of the Maserati..“Help! Who… who the hell are you? I’m Joel Wallace's assistant. If you dare to lay a finger on me, the Wallaces won’t spare you!” After being dragged out of the car, the assistant was still issuing a threat while struggling.Eyes full of hatred, Ryan slowly walked up to the assistant. “Won’t spare me? Let me ask you. Where is my son, Kobe Preston?!”“You… you’re the helmsman of the Prestons?!” Joel’s assistant’s eyes widened as he looked at Ryan in disbelief.After hearing that Ryan was looking for Kobe, he instantly froze in place, and his body turned clammy all over.Oh my god! The Prestons already found out about Kobe’s death!“Kill him!” Ryan commanded coldly.Before the assistant could react, the hand gripping his neck tight

After being stared at for a long time, Celia naturally felt something.In particular, when she raised her head and saw the lecherous gaze in Bill’s eyes, her impression of this man became terrible.If not for the fact that he was Nessa’s boyfriend, Celia would have long cursed at him.“Hello,” Celia, suppressing her anger, replied indifferently without any intention to shake his hand.Bill’s facial expression immediately stiffened.He had planned to take liberties with Celia during the handshake and see just how soft the hands of the woman who was prettier than his girlfriend were.A trace of disappointment and anger appeared on his face, but he could only awkwardly retract his hand while striking up a conversation on his own. “You two are high school classmates. It's been a long time since you’ve met, huh?”Nessa said, “Yeah. After graduating, we went to college in different cities. It’s been more than five years since we last met! It’s a rare opportunity for us to meet here today, s
