Watching the scene unfold, Zach collapsed onto the couch, trembling as he asked, "What do you want from me? Please don't come any closer! If you hurt me, you'll regret it. My family won't let you get away with this. My grandpa is really powerful!"Seeing a grown man saying such things while sitting on the couch was hard for everyone to watch. The boss stepped forward a few paces."Mr. Robison, right? Let me be clear: you either pay with your card right now, or find a way to settle this two million. If that's not possible, you can call your family to bring the money."They had already set the stage for this confrontation, and they weren't going to back down easily. Zach thought to himself that this was all nonsense. Did he really dare to call his family? Who among them had that kind of power? Aside from his grandpa, no one else did. But his grandpa was already heartbroken over Jack's previous gambling debts. If he found out that Zach had gotten himself into trouble at a bar because of

His gaze was fixed on the four men in black. It was only after they pushed the door open that he noticed two guards standing nearby. Robison understood the rules of the game. If money couldn't solve the problem, then other means would have to be employed."I say, my friend, you wouldn't be unaware of the rules here, would you? Calling the police is an option, but just because you do, it doesn't mean this gentleman won't need to compensate for the damages. If you want to escalate this situation, we're more than willing to play along," the boss said, his tone cold as he sized up the intimidating figures before him."Is that so? Even if it involves prostitution, extortion, and illegal detention? I see these four gentlemen are quite formidable," hereplied, exaggerating slightly for effect."Don't try to play games with me. We're all in this together, and no one is squeaky clean. I hear you're his brother, so you must be just as skilled in this business. Don't think you can pull a fast on

After getting their injections at the hospital, the two of them fell into a deep sleep, barely reacting at all during the night. The next day, when Robison woke up, his first instinct was to contact his family. He didn't dare to tell them the whole truth, but he felt he should at least reach out. When his parents arrived and saw them in that state, they could hardly believe their eyes. Zach, standing nearby, stammered and didn't know what to say.Earlier, Robison had sternly warned Zach that this was something he had to swallow and keep to himself. Although he felt frustrated, he knew he still had leverage over Zach. At the same time, he sent an email to the kidnapper, informing him that he didn't have time to meet right now. The kidnapper quickly agreed.For some reason, Robison felt a nagging sense of unease about this missed opportunity. But he needed treatment, so he decided to rest in the hospital. He didn't want any lingering issues, yet he couldn't shake off the feeling of mist

Gavin was puzzled by the phrase "things aren't simple, you need to find the root." So, he decided to ask Robison about it."I'm telling you, this is a critical time for inheritance distribution. If I can tarnish someone else's reputation, I'll naturally get a bigger share," Iris added over the phone. Gavin slowly started to understand her point, but for some reason, her words made him feel uneasy. He really didn't want to get too entangled with her family, but the situation was becomingincreasingly complicated, and he found himself needing money more than ever. The thought of going abroad began to creep into his mind, but lately, he hadn't been able to contact that person, which made him anxious. He felt like a golden opportunity was slipping away."If you want to do this, go ahead. But can you even see the old man right now?" Iris seemed somewhat satisfied with his response; at least he hadn't forgotten what she had said earlier. The old man didn't want to see anyone these days."Yo

Thomas wasn't interested in continuing the boring conversation; he had a purpose for their meeting today. Jacob looked at Thomas, who was indeed different from what he hadimagined. But he thought that since this man had come alone, there was no need to worry about any trouble."You haven't had dinner yet, have you? I couldn't wait any longer while waiting foryou, so I went ahead and ate. You can call the waiter to order something," Jacob saidcasually. "Thank you for your concern, but I believe your time is valuable, so let's not waste it on this. Let's get straight to the point of our meeting," Thomas replied firmly. Jacob pulled out his phone and scrolled to the first email, placing it in front of Thomas. "The person you had us deal with is currently facing some issues, which forces us to pause our negotiations. We need you to provide a specific explanation."Thomas glanced at the text on the phone. It was indeed the basic information he had given about Gavin, and there didn't se
