On the way back, Lucia’s expression was unusually cold. To her, the fact that such a traitor who betrayed the family had emerged within the Green family was already infuriating.What made it worse was that Waldemar had dared to set a trap for her in front of so many outsiders.If she had fallen for the scam today and Waldemar had escaped, discovering the deception later would have not only shamed her but also tarnished the entire Green family’s reputation!Alan had been present to expose the trick in time, preventing losses for both her and the family.She took out a bank card from the car’s compartment and handed it to Alan."Mr. Alan, there are $500,000 in this card. The password is six eights. This is a small token of my gratitude—please accept it."As she spoke, she couldn’t help but wonder: Alan clearly possessed real expertise. Why had he chosen to marry into a minor family as a live-in son-in-law?If he had started his own antique appraisal business, he could have accumulated s

A young man arrived, dressed in a very peculiar manner, with a chain hanging from his waist. Combined with his crookedly tilted mouth, he looked like a rap singer straight out of the scene.In front of him was a huge black Tibetan mastiff, drooling all over the ground—obviously a formidable creature not to be messed with.Behind the young man trailed six burly bodyguards. The group, along with the dog, barged through the crowd aggressively, causing onlookers to scramble out of their way in fear.As soon as the stall owner saw the young man, he hurried forward. "Young Master Jesse, what brings you here today..."The young man waved dismissively, glanced at the jade pendant in Alan's hand, pointed to his Tibetan mastiff, and said to the stall owner, "Payne, this jade pendant looks good. My dog here is just missing a nameplate. Wrap it up for me—I'll take it."The stall owner's name was Payne. He forced a smile and said, "Young Master Jesse, I'm truly sorry, but I've already given this p

Jesse instantly flew into a rage. "Damn it! First you curse me, now my whole family?!"At this moment, he felt no gratitude toward Alan for saving his life—instead, he was furious and embarrassed.Seeing the man's ungratefulness, Alan said coolly, "I don’t have time for your nonsense. Good luck."As Alan turned to leave, Jesse shouted, "Grab him!"The four bodyguards behind him immediately closed in on Alan, while the other two lunged for Gilmore.Gilmore staggered backward in terror, but the two bodyguards pursued relentlessly.With nowhere to hide, Gilmore squeezed his eyes shut, bracing for the beating.Just as a fist was about to land on Gilmore, Alan stepped forward swiftly and smashed one bodyguard to the ground with a single punch. Then he rushed to Gilmore’s side and kicked another guard in the stomach.Ever since obtaining the True Yuan Bible, Alan felt he had gained countless combat memories in his mind, as if he had mastered martial arts long ago.Coupled with the surge of

Burt immediately kowtowed deeply, his voice trembling with excitement. "Please act, Master Alan!"Alan nodded. "Prepare yellow paper, cinnabar, a brush, and ink for me."Moments later, Burt's secretary returned with the items and placed them in Alan's hands.Alan held the brush, dipped it lightly in cinnabar, and took a slow breath. Threads of Reiki within his body began to circulate, flowing along his meridians and attaching to the brush. With smooth, dragon-like strokes, he painted from the top to the bottom of the yellow paper.When the painting was complete, Alan gently blew on the paper before handing it to Burt."This talisman is specifically for dispelling malevolent auras. It embodies the most yang and righteous energy in the world.Wrap the Mojin Talisman with this paper and offer three sandalwood incense sticks daily. After thirty-six days—the number of celestial stems—the sinister qi on the human tooth will be completely eliminated.During these thirty-six days, no bloodshe

She didn’t have many true friends in Pras City, and Mia was her only close friend.Now that she had been promoted to sales director, she had a bigger platform and a great opportunity to prove herself, but she couldn’t find anyone to celebrate with.Just as she was sighing with emotion, her phone suddenly rang. To her surprise, the caller was Carlson!Seeing Carlson’s name pop up, Caroline didn’t feel like answering.She had a poor impression of him, and she could see through his motives—he simply wanted to get close to her and attract her attention. Since she had no interest in such people, she hung up directly.But Carlson was persistent. After several more calls, Caroline finally answered reluctantly. She asked coldly, "Carlson, what do you want?"Carlson rushed to say, "Caroline, I heard you’ve been transferred to sales director?"Caroline asked in surprise, "How did you hear the news so quickly?"Carlson chuckled, "I just happen to have some friends working at your Delaney Group.
