“What are your terms? You go first.” Joseph said, intertwining his fingers as he leaned forward, staring at Damien intently.“It’s simple. If I win, you’ll have to do whatever I want.” Damien said nonchalantly.Besides, he knew Joseph wanted him to go first so he could gauge his terms, and if they were unfavorable to him and his family, he would easily call it off.On the other hand, Joseph expected something worse, but hearing what Damien said, it didn’t seem much of a big deal to him. Besides, there was no way Damien was going to win this time. He might have a chance with the roulette games, but when it came to rolling dice, Joseph had already begun to imagine himself winning the jackpot.“My terms are, you’ll give me double the winnings. I don’t mind if you don’t have money; you can call Maya to send some. She’s your accomplice, isn’t she?”He raised a brow at him as he spat.Damein remained calm. The brat wanted the jackpot of four hundred million dollars and another, totaling ei

Bang!Bang!Bang!In less than thirty seconds, twenty-five people were sprawled all around in the room, unconscious. Some had broken legs, some broken hands. In summary, they were all in overwhelming pain and as a result, they all passed out. The others, upon seeing this, didn't dare test the waters anymore. Their numbers didn't matter; Damien was a monster who couldn't be stopped. It didn't matter if they rushed at him like a tide; none of them were able to touch his clothes.Even a few men in suits Joseph had come with, thinking they could make a difference, could do nothing.Joseph had sunk back to his chair with crushing defeat in his chest. He couldn't speak a word to motivate the others to attack. They had all lost hope, and all he could see in their eyes was fear. He wasn't any different.Smiling, Damien walked back to where he was and picked up the contract document.“I guess we are done here.” He then looked toward the dealer. Without saying a word, the man knew what was nee

Smack!Damien then proceeded to drop a contract document on the table. No one on the other party except Joseph saw this coming.So that was the plan Damien had all along? To use the betting contract to force them into collaborating with Vantage Materials? “What's the meaning of this?” Donald's brow arched. “Are you pulling a stunt to save yourself or what?” He growled.“Why don't you ask your son? I'm sure he knows what I am talking about!” Damien shifted his gaze to Joseph.The latter shivered as soon as he became the subject of attention.“Dad…he….” Joseph had been thinking of lies to tell his father since yesterday. He didn't sleep, and dark circles formed around his eyes because of the pressure.He never expected Damien to come at them so soon. As he stood there, he began racking his head up; after a while, he thought of something and immediately spoke up.“Last night… I was drunk. He forced me to sign it.” He pointed at Damien as he lamented.“Force you? Did I force you to lose

The next day.Donald was seated in his study casually going through some books when he got a call. It was from Leo.He casually picked it up; however, after hearing what the other party said, his heart almost flew out of his mouth.“What do you mean by 'Prime Source Material has decided to hike the price of their materials?'” He asked to be certain he had not misheard.Novagroup and Prime Source had been partners for years, and there had never been any issues, conflict, or cases like this. In fact, Donald could beat his chest to say they could never face any challenges with the other party.Yet out of the blue, they had done this? Why didn't they inform them far before now?“Yes, boss. I was shocked. We were contacted this morning.” Leo confirmed.The anger Donald was trying to withhold was unleashed. “What nonsense. Do they think they can just do to us what they please and we will just take it like that? So what if their materials are good? Do they think they are the best and can ne

In the conference room of Novagroup. Donald, Lily, Leo, Kai, and two other men in luxurious suits sat around the table, looking anxious as they waited. Due to recent factors and how badly they were affecting the company, a meeting was required to try to come up with a better plan to deal with the problem. Donald contacted all the shareholders only to realize something shocking. Most of them had all signed off their shares to the same group that acquired the twenty percent from those online merchants. They own about thirty-two percent of the company stock. Hence, they were the second-largest shareholders in the company, and there was no way the meeting would take place without them. Donald was stuck on whether he was supposed to try to deal with that matter or focus on how to get resources to continue the ongoing projects. Though both matters were very significant, the latter seemed more important for now. Besides, when the group showed up, he could see for himself who they were si
