Bianca looked annoyed, then glanced at Magnus's tote bag. He remembered that Magnus was carrying a black suitcase containing tens of millions of dollars when he forced his way into the Barbosa residence two days earlier. Could it be..."You're trying to say that tote bag of yours is full of cash? Do you think the money you have in that tote bag is enough for you and your family to live on for weeks or months? I’m telling you, you'll probably run out of money by the middle of next month," Bianca taunted.Magnus gave a wry smile, lowering his hand holding the bag."Say whatever you want. The fact is, I don't need a single cent of your money," Magnus said, then turned to Jonas. "Let's go in.""Wait!" Bianca blocked Magnus who was about to open the gate. "Are you serious about turning down our offer? You and your family need a lot of money, right? Are you sure you want to pretend you have a lot of money like this? If your mom and siblings need a lot of money for their needs later, and you

The three women returned to the coffee shop. Bianca and Viona went straight to their table, while Jasmine went back behind the counter. Her expression was clouded."Are you okay?" asked Jasmine's coworker who had just served a customer's order."Ah, yes. I'm good," Jasmine replied."You sure?""Yeah."Jasmine forced a smile. Luckily, at that moment, there was a customer who was about to pay, so Jasmine could immediately avoid her coworker's suspicious gaze.That night, Jasmine couldn't stop thinking about Bianca's offer. Actually, instead of an offer, it was more like a threat. Jasmine let out a long breath as she stood in front of her locker. She felt like she wanted to be home right at that moment.Bianca and Viona left about half an hour after their conversation behind the coffee shop. While doing her work, Jasmine occasionally glanced at the two of them, guessing what they were talking about. This increased her anxiety. And even after they had left, that anxiety was still there.

A taxi carrying Magnus was leaving The Grand Mersey. In the passenger seat, Magnus stared out the window, thinking about what Felix had said.‘Did I go too far? Should I just give that corrupt cop's memories back?’ he thought.He couldn't deny that by making the Merseyvale police chief an amnesiac, he was automatically inviting a new enemy. Yes, it was inevitable. But why should he think about it too much? At this point, he wasn't afraid to face anyone.Felix explained to him that the person being sent to Merseyvale to replace Frank was a legend in the police force. He was nicknamed The Iron Fist, and that was almost literally what it meant. Rumor had it that he had physical strength far above average. No one in the police force dared to challenge him, including the generals who were in higher positions.And the fact that he was sent to Merseyvale to fill the temporary leadership void in the Merseyvale police force showed that the central police department smelled something fishy in t

The suggestion that Clara made was a bit offensive to Magnus. But, he had to admit, what she said was true.He had been looked down on—even insulted—many times because of his appearance. Maybe it was time for him to improve his appearance."Don't tell me you don't have more civilized clothes," Clara said.Magnus shrugged. "The truth is, I don't. But don't worry. I'll buy some first.""I'll buy them for you.""Huh?""Let's just buy them from an online store. You'll receive the tuxedo today if we use instant delivery service."Clara took out her phone, opening a marketplace app. Magnus wanted to ask her not to do it, but Clara's fingers moved so fast and her eyes radiated enthusiasm.Magnus shrugged. He stood up and walked to the sink, pouring more tap water into his glass....In the evening, at La Table Royale...Magnus got out of the taxi. With a tuxedo and shiny black loafers, he looked completely different. His hair was slicked back. A musky-scented perfume wafted from his body.He

Magnus shook his head slightly, smiling genlty. "You sit down. I'll handle this."Seeing the faint smile on Magnus's face, Krystal Lim relented. She sat down in her chair, but her eyes were still fixed on Wanda."Hmm, I didn't know that your taste was a woman who is a dozen years older than you," Wanda said, smiling mockingly. "Is she the one who has been supporting you financially all this time? You can look like this because of her? Is that it? Wow, you must be giving her a very good service in bed for her to be willing to spend her money on you."Magnus stopped right in front of Wanda. Wanda looked up slightly, still with her arrogant and mocking gestures."Wanda, I'm telling you this for your own good. Stop meddling in other people's lives. You don't know how dangerous this game you're playing is," Magnus said.Wanda chuckled again. "Oh, my god, Magnus. Are you threatening me? Is that what you're trying to do?""No, I'm not," Magnus denied. "I'm just giving you a warning, because
