Justin scanned the room, a terrifying aura surrounding Alexander and the gang members.Just a quick look at Justin made Alexander's heart race. At that moment, Justin resembled a general returning from a fierce battle, radiating a chilling aura. Still, despite his impressive presence and strength, Alexander doubted he could survive a storm of bullets.Raising his arm in a show of false courage, Alexander said, "I'll admit you have some skills, punk, but no one I have aimed to kill makes it out alive.""Justin, stop putting on an act. No matter how strong you think you are, you can't dodge bullets. You'll die here today. Call your blind mother to dig a grave for you," Emma taunted, barely able to hide her excitement with so many guns pointed at Justin.Justin ignored Emma, keeping his gaze on Alexander, who still wanted to repay the favor from Toby. Justin felt torn. He wasn't naive. He could take hits from bullets, but the sheer number of Nolan family members mad

The group of nearly 6.5-foot-tall goons noticed Alexander's fury and began to panic. Dropping his firearm, Alexander turned to Justin and said respectfully, "Mr. Miller, my subordinate did not recognize your esteemed presence. Please forgive my mistake."Then, he turned to the others and commanded, "Clear this place."Instantly, confusion spread among those present, unsure of the sudden shift in his attitude.Titan was shocked to the core. He couldn't understand why Alexander, who had wanted to eliminate Justin moments ago, was now being so respectful. 'What is Mr. Duffy's plan? Why is he insisting we hold our fire?' he wondered.Titan complied reluctantly and helped clear the area, leading Victor out with him.Victor stumbled out in shock, speechless. 'Why would Alexander be so respectful to the guy threatening him?' As he reflected, he recognized Justin's insignia from earlier. It was from the Southern Command. 'No, wait... It's a four-star general's insig

"We live here," Justin said from the back of the taxi.The guard's eyes narrowed. "You live here? I know almost all the people living here. How come I've never seen you before?"Another guard sneered, "Plenty of people come around claiming to live here every day. Which villa do you live in? Show us your key."Having worked at the Saint Maria Villas for many years, they were familiar with nearly everyone who owned a villa there. Even if they couldn't recognize someone immediately, they would find him familiar. Yet, they had never seen the man before them. Besides, he was dressed like a beggar. They found it hard to believe he could actually be an owner in this upscale villa area.At that moment, Justin pulled out a key and said, "Villa No. 1. Thank you."The guards' eyes widened. They knew Villa No. 1 well. It belonged to Cillian, the richest man in Riverwood. Although he didn't visit often, they remembered him vividly. Now, seeing someone who looked like a h

After a long while, Jacob sighed, "Honey, if you could see, you'd be amazed. The air here is fresh, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the environment is wonderful. I never thought in my lifetime I would live in such a high-end villa.""It's a pity I can't see," Olivia said, a bit self-reproachfully.Justin quickly helped his mother into the villa's courtyard and said, "It's okay, Mom. I will cure your eyes.""It's almost impossible. Your dad took me to many doctors, and none of them could help. Let's not waste money," Olivia said with some helplessness. It wasn't that she didn't want to treat her eyes, but she knew they couldn't be cured. Since that, she didn't want to waste money and preferred to save it for Justin's future marriage.Jacob also said, "Yeah, they're incurable. I've taken your mom to many hospitals, and they all said they couldn't help her."Justin raised his eyebrows slightly and explained, "That's because they are not good enough. I once m

"Yes, Mr. Miller. Justin saved my grandfather while in prison, so after his release, my grandfather asked me to let him stay in this spare villa. By the way, you can just call me Audrey," she said with a warm smile as she took a seat. On the way here, Justin had prepared an excuse for Audrey.Jacob's face showed a brief flicker of surprise as he glanced back at Justin, realizing it was true. That explained why Justin got out after only five years; he had saved someone important. It all made sense now.As long as the villa wasn't involved in anything illegal, Jacob was pretty supportive of Justin's efforts.Olivia gave a gentle smile. "Miss Nolan, you're capable and beautiful. Do you have a boyfriend?""No, not yet," Audrey replied, feeling a bit nervous at the direct question."What a coincidence! Justin doesn't have a girlfriend either. What's going on between you two?" Olivia persisted with curiosity.Audrey felt a bit lost and glanced at Justin for h
