But at this moment, a flicker of struggle suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he cursed, "You old bastard, how dare you humiliate me like this!"Cedric let out a cold laugh and raised his voice, shouting harshly, "Lick!"Wilder's mind once again became dazed.In that instant, he felt as if he had been walking in a scorching desert for hours, parched and feverish, on the very brink of death.Suddenly, a massive popsicle appeared out of thin air before him. Under the desert sun, the ice cream emitted cold vapor while melting into creamy streams. He was so desperate that he wanted to lick up every drop of the melting cream!Thus, under the gaze of everyone present, he knelt down like a madman, stuck out his tongue, and began furiously licking Cedric's leather shoes.The crowd broke into a cold sweat, but Cedric sneered and taunted, "You insignificant ant—do you really think you can challenge me with such meager skills?"Wilder had completely lost his senses, lapping at the shoes with obvi

"You have some insight after all!" Cedric laughed arrogantly, his voice cold as he said,It took me a hundred newly deceased corpses, a fetus, and various secret medicines to refine these blood corpse gu worms."Today, those who swear allegiance to me as their leader shall live!"The blood-colored leeches reproduced extremely rapidly. A middle-aged man was bitten on the arm by one leech, and his entire arm instantly turned black and withered.The leeches soared in mid-air, buzzing incessantly. After listening for a while, one could faintly feel their mind slipping into chaos.Lucia, feeling a violent churning in her stomach and an overwhelming urge to vomit, quickly shuffled closer to Alan. Pressing half her body against his arm, she finally felt slightly better.She noticed that there seemed to be a protective barrier around Alan—the leeches dared not approach him at all.A few bold ones flew within three meters of Alan before dissipating into thin air.Watching the leeches wreak hav

Alan shook his head wearily and opened the door to enter.Seeing Alan return, Ivy let out a cold snort. "So you remember to come back? Are you going to cook or not? We’re all starving!"Alan smiled. "Mom, I’ll go cook right away." With that, he headed straight for the kitchen.Alan knew Ivy’s personality all too well—snobbish and a fair-weather friend, always jealous when others had something she didn’t. If she found out Gustav was gifting him a villa as an apology, she’d probably fawn over him immediately.But given Ivy’s behavior, he decided to keep the villa under wraps for now.Alan was busy in the kitchen when Mia walked over and whispered, "Mom is just like that. Don't take what she said to heart."Alan pretended to be clueless. I didn’t hear anything."You don’t need to make excuses for me. She was shouting so loudly, how could you not hear?"Mia flicked Alan’s forehead with her finger.Alan saw her delicate hand in front of him and couldn’t resist grabbing it.Mia’s face flus

Carlson snapped: Alan, how dare you even speak? Every single person here is richer than you! Alan smiled and asked: Carlson, you keep saying I can't afford a villa. But what if I actually can? What would you do then? Carlson laughed heartily and pointed to the tallest high - rise building on the sand table. If you can afford any villa here, I, Carlson, will jump off the top of this building! Many around joined in the jeering: Poor bastard, if you can afford it, I'll jump too! Right! Count me in for the jump! I hate this kind of arrogant fool the most! Mia had never felt so ashamed and began to hold some grudge against Alan.She rebuked: Alan! Why must you be so stubborn with them here? Do you enjoy being embarrassed? Alan smiled faintly and said: Honey, how do you know your husband will be embarrassed? As he spoke, Alan took out the villa key and access card from his pocket. Look, these are the key and information card for Villa A05. Tasha sneered: Alan, do you think we'll be

Tasha widened her eyes, staring at the unbelievable scene.Others couldn’t help but lower their voices. The housekeeper and nanny of the Hardy family?Allen smiled faintly and said, Yes, from your fiancé Saul’s family.This house was given to me by his father.What?!Tasha’s mind went blank! Was this villa from her fiancé’s Hardy family?Did that mean this villa would have belonged to her in the future? But why was it given to Allen?Tasha’s parents were equally confused and angry.The Hardy family was their daughter’s future in - laws. Naturally, the Hardy family’s villa should have been for their daughter. Why give it to Allen?This didn’t make sense!Nora blurted out to Tasha, Tasha, what’s going on here?Do you know about this villa from the Hardy family? Tasha shook her head repeatedly, I don’t know. I’ve never heard Saul mention it...Nora immediately snapped, Call Saul right now and ask! Find out exactly what’s going on!Okay! Tasha immediately took out her phone and dialed Sau
