Chapter 321
Arlene Gilliard wanted to run after Jamie, eyes glistening with tears as she got up from her seat, but Fun Curt, her manager quickly grabbed her by the wrist, gently shaking his head at her.Arlene conveyed her desperation with her eyes. She couldn’t just let the man she really liked to just walk away, disrespected like that.President Donald stared at the backs of Jamie and his crew walking out of the meeting room, and he couldn't help but stare longingly. He didn't see the people leaving, he saw the promised billions of dollars in investments fading along with those shrinking backs.The sense of loss pissed the man off, so he took out his anger on Arlene, seeing her glaring at him. “What? Arlene, don't you dare give me that look.”He pointed at her. “I still haven't settled the score with you yet! How dare you recklessly get into a relationship with a nobody like that?! You didn't even think about the cost of damage control that it would take from us to deal with the aftermath.”Ar

Conan reached out to hold Arlene, refusing to let her go as he pulled her hot to his chest, whispering into her ears. “Honestly, though, you've got to admit that you sorta cheated on me, right?”Arlene composed herself, still feeling a bit of pain from what Conan's bodyguard had almost done to her. “Look, we were only ever going to be on-screen partners, so why are you making such a big deal over my real-life boyfriend?”Conan chuckled with a look of incredulity. “You're joking, right? Our generation of Internet sensations in Hollywood has always given something extra, a hint of exclusivity to demands for the fans. You should have never dated a random man, and if you did, it should have been with someone that the shippers of fandoms would be able to try behind. Yet….”He refused to say anymore, finally letting go of Arlene, ignoring her as her manager, Finn Curt, rushed over to check on her broken wrist. Instead, he smiled teasingly at President Donald Dump. “As for you, President, I
Chapter 323
That night, Jamie found that Arlene had blocked him on all social media platforms, and he couldn't check on her for now.But with his advanced phone, he was actually able to hack into Arlene's phone, silently glimpsing through her phone camera to find that it was no longer in her possession.Jamie put the pieces together. The phone she's known to use to chat people up has been confiscated by Finn Curt, the leading manager on her team.Jamie wasn't dumb, though. He knew that Finn must have done it on the order of President Donald Dump, to ensure that no more trouble was caused.With the $79 million customized phone in Jamie's hands, courtesy of AS-Crows Tech Corp, he was able to check if Arlene had a second phone, a more private one where he could reach her.She did, and he was able to break through any firewall without triggering any alarm. With this unique phone, Jamie could easily break into the most secure crypto chain wallet and empty it without leaving any tracks behind.But he

The ride was getting slightly peaceful, with fewer cars on these exclusive roads within LA, when they came across something.It was like something heavy was dropped from an incredibly high altitude, and with such force that it caused a rumble that they all felt.With the headlights on, the drivers of the entire convoy caught this flashing figure dropping right in front of them.But it was too late, at least, for the SUV that was in front of Conan Grain’s car.The blurry object that had landed in front of the first SUV caused a collision with it, and surprisingly the brunt of the heavy impact was borne by the SUV, which was overturned as it slammed into the air, and then came crashing down in the road on its head.By now, the other SUVs and Conan Grain's car have come to a screeching halt. Conan's phone was sent flying in his hands before he realized that something was wrong. He leaned forward to look out the front windshield with a frown. “What's going on?! What happened?!”The driv
Chapter 325
Before the bodyguard could reply, his team from the other two SUVs had tactically gotten out of their vehicles and had positioned themselves well, ready to fire.Without hesitation, they bombarded the clad man with bullets, intended to subdue him at best, and to kill him at worst.But then shock washed over the entire body of this bodyguard when he could see the bullets simply bouncing off of this mysterious man's face and body like it was nothing. “Holy mother of…..” The bodyguard immediately understood that whatever this man was wearing made him impervious to gunshots.In other words, this woke attacker came fully prepared. This is bad for Conan Grain's team.Conan Grain was also seeing what was unfolding outside the vehicle, and he couldn't help but feel his fear rise into panic. This attacker can't be killed with guns, which means that they would most likely be subjected to whatever the mysterious guy came to do with them.The clad man turned to where the bullets were coming fro
Chapter 326
Conan’s bodyguard's crime in this case was that he hurt Arlene Gilliard, using the status of his boss, Conan Grain, to bully her in the presence of her own agent, and in the building of her own agency.This bodyguard had almost broken one of Arlene's wrists, and in retaliation, the mysterious attacker did more than that. Revenge exacted on behalf of Arlene, by the request of the sender, was several times more severe than what was done to Arlene in the first place.Both of the wrists of these bodyguards were broken, then their firearms, then their elbows, then their shoulders, then their ankles, then the legs, the knees, and finally, the hip.The super-strong masked man had broken this bodyguard in pieces, all while maintaining a level direction with his head towards the car from which Conan Grain was witnessing everything.It felt like Conan was in a nightmare that was all too real, except that it was the case. He could hear the agonizing screams that the bodyguard let out into the n
Chapter 327
Jamie left Clayton Skyline Hotel with Tom Yates dressed in his normal suit, while General Stella, along with three lieutenants, and fifteen soldiers of The Bridge Crow were dressed in casual bodyguard suits as well.The group would be heading to the Glendon Hills Group building, and Jamie wasn't intending to approach them there looking intimidating. Though, entering a building with twenty people would be quite the crowd, it wouldn't elicit anything beyond wariness at their number if everyone kept their aura in check, not letting anything leak.Jamie was about to dip his toes into the water of power, something he had assumed would only happen after about a year of him secretly becoming the heir apparent of the Ashford clan and the vast inheritance of the business empire.If it wasn't for the complexity that has unexpectedly grown around Arlene Gilliard's case, after the dating scandal, he wouldn't have made himself known this soon.But there was no point in diving into the realm of wh
Chapter 328
The female security guard cursed under her breath before hurriedly whispering to Tom. “The approaching bastard is the new chief of the outer security guards. He's a real douche bag in a lot of ways, and can be even abusive. Let me handle him, okay? You just have to keep your mouth shut.”Tom’s view of this female guard only got better after seeing how she was ready to defend a total stranger whom she just met.The female security guard turned towards the approaching male security guard with the group, saluting him properly. “It's nothing, Chief! There was just a slight mix-up here. This gentleman and his group meant no harm, and they were about to leave.”The arrogant man with the gun rolled his eyes at the female security guard. “Oh, shut up, you bitch! Don’t think I haven't figured you out yet. Ever since I've been placed at this outer gate, you've always held a distaste for the way I manage things around here, and have been secretly opposing me, huh?!”He sneered at the woman who
Chapter 329
The chief of the outer security post tightened his fists as he glared up at this handsome man in a suit. “Do you have any fucking use where you are? Open your eyes! This is Glendon Hills Group, the most powerful company in Hollywood! And you're speaking to….”Tom cut him off with that calm voice that carried a hint of ridicule. “....And I'm currently not talking to an ordinary chief security guard of the outer posts. In the general hierarchy of such a powerful company, you're nothing.”There was a moment of fiery tension that pumped into the brief silence as the two security guards on the chief's side, as well as Security Officer Breanna Clay, all tensed up tightly, knowing what their arrogant chief was capable of doing.As predicted, the chief security officer took a couple of steps back as his anger reached a breaking point, and he pulled out his gun, pointing it straight at Tom. “You really think you're so tough, huh?! Motherfucker, with one bullet right through your fucking skull
Chapter 330
The chief and his two subordinates were scared to hell and back as they saw how many muzzles were pointing at them. Even if they do manage to pull the trigger on Tom, they definitely will not survive this either.The point here was not to get their asses killed.The chief quickly gathered his emotions, clearing his throat as he put away his gun. “Young man, you need to calm the fuck down. If you kill anyone here, no amount of money will save you from spending the rest of your life in jail. Do you think Glendon Hills Group will allow you to get out after you just murdered their employees?”Tom sneered at this. “Whether you die here or not, I assure you that Glendon Hills Group won't do shit against me, not to mention taking any action in your favor.”The longer this chief guard talks to Tom, the more he can't help but feel his heart racing with fear, not of the man himself but more so of his true status.A calm demeanor in the face of a life-threatening situation, the fact that he cam
