Rise From Prison: Taking Over the Business Empire Chapter 12: Appraisal
Immediately, Anthony's expression changed!Among those present, Isaiah Harris's face also changed."Oh dear... Preston, how could you smash the gift Anthony brought for me?" Old Mr. Mitchell's eyes were filled with distress."Grandpa... it was just a fake. No harm done. Didn't Mr. Harris already give you a genuine set?" Preston Mitchell remarked disdainfully.Isaiah Harris chimed in with a smile, "Old Mr. Mitchell, someone of your stature shouldn't use counterfeit items. My authentic tea set is much more fitting!""Exactly, Dad... look how beautiful the color of Isaiah's tea set is!" Kimberly Lane added with a smile.Anthony felt a pang of regret. What a group of ignorant people! A tea set worth $50 million, shattered just like that.He looked at Preston Mitchell and sighed, "I warned you, but you wouldn't listen. My tea set was the genuine article, don't you understand?""Anthony, stop making us sick!"Kimberly Lane snapped, "If that broken tea set of yours is real, I'll compensate y

"Mr. Simpson, are you certain?" George Mitchell swallowed hard as he asked.Preston Mitchell stared intently at Icarus Simpson, his face as white as a sheet.Icarus Simpson frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter? Are you doubting my expertise?"George Mitchell hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, how would I dare question your judgment."At this moment, the expressions on the faces of the Mitchell family members turned strange.Earlier, none of them believed that the 'Auspicious Harmony' tea set Anthony brought was genuine. They never expected to be proven wrong so quickly!No one in the Mitchell family dared to question Icarus Simpson's judgment.After all, Icarus Simpson was the genuine appraisal expert in Silverhaven City!A grave expression appeared on Freya Mitchell's face.Preston Mitchell was so frightened that his entire body trembled, his expression extremely unnatural.As for Kimberly Lane, she dared not say a word.She had just promised that if the tea set was
Rise From Prison: Taking Over the Business Empire Chapter 14: Complete Disappointment
With this thought, Freya Mitchell quickly raised her glass and toasted Isaiah Harris.By now, the Mitchell family had already begun deliberately avoiding the matter of Preston Mitchell breaking the 'Auspicious Harmony' tea set.Kimberly Lane laughed heartily and said, "Isaiah truly is a godsend for our Mitchell family! Isaiah... is indeed the perfect match for our Freya!"After saying this, Kimberly Lane turned to Anthony and mockingly said, "Anthony, just look at yourself. During your time with our Freya, have you ever brought any benefits to the Mitchell family?"Preston Mitchell coldly interjected from the side, "Mom, this dog only knows how to eat at our Mitchell family's expense and use our Mitchell family's resources. What is he worth anyway?""Exactly, Anthony has been freeloading off the Mitchell family for years without bringing any benefits.""Someone like him should have been driven away long ago. Who would have thought that this guy would turn out to be a thief?""What a s

"You don't need to explain anything further. I want you to apologize to Mr. Harris!" Freya Mitchell stared at Anthony, her tone brooking no argument.In that moment, she exuded an intimidating aura.The Mitchell family members all trembled in fear.However, they thought Freya Mitchell was right.If Anthony Jones angered Isaiah Harris and subsequently affected the relationship between the Mitchell family and the Horizon Group, the consequences would be disastrous!"Apologize!?"Anthony sighed, looking at Freya Mitchell.He never expected that this woman would truly show him no mercy."Impossible! I will not apologize to him!""Why not?" Freya Mitchell stared at Anthony, asking in confusion, "You've offended Mr. Harris, why won't you apologize?""You want to know why, right?" Anthony said coldly, "Because... he doesn't deserve it!"With those words—the entire room fell into dead silence.Freya Mitchell's expression grew increasingly ugly, her beautiful eyes wide as she glared at Anthony

The moment these women appeared, the entire banquet instantly rose to a higher level.In terms of both figure and appearance, each of them was a match for Freya Mitchell.Everyone was stunned, their gazes fixed squarely on Anthony Jones.How could this guy be so fortunate?Moreover, these women were all apparently the daughters and heiresses of those formidable families from Aurelia City!Any one of them could completely overshadow even the top-tier families of Silverhaven City.Seeing these women, Anthony's brows furrowed deeply.Meanwhile, Freya Mitchell's expression instantly turned extremely unpleasant.These women surpassed her in both bearing and family background by hundreds of times.Most critically, they had all come for Anthony, even declaring their willingness to marry him!Anthony Jones—what had he done to deserve this?Female jealousy immediately surged in her heart.At once, Freya Mitchell glared at Anthony and demanded, "Anthony... what is going on? Why would they want

"Mr. Jones... please allow me to serve you tonight.""Yes, Mr. Jones, I'm also willing...""I'm willing too..."Just as Anthony was becoming somewhat bewildered by these women, a roaring sound suddenly came from behind.A burgundy Porsche Panamera rushed toward them, screeching to an abrupt halt directly in front of them.Then, the car door opened, and a stunningly beautiful woman with fair skin and exquisitely sculpted features gracefully stepped out.She wore a fashionable ultra-short skirt, her hair tied up high, her skin glowing with a rosy tint. Beneath a pair of willow-leaf curved eyebrows sat a delicately crafted nose.Such a beauty would become the center of attention wherever she went.The woman walked straight up to the group and smiled slightly, saying, "Mr. Jones... hello!"In an instant, Anthony was completely stunned.This woman was breathtakingly beautiful!The women around him, when compared to her, actually seemed to fade into the background.Anthony raised an eyebrow
Rise From Prison: Taking Over the Business Empire Chapter 18: The Witch Doctor
Serena Phillips frowned as she looked at the elderly man beside Nicholas Phillips.In fact, she had heard long ago that a miraculous doctor had been living in seclusion on Heavenly South Mountain.She had sent people and even gone personally to invite him, but had never succeeded in bringing him out of his isolation. Yet somehow, Nicholas Phillips had managed to do so.Was this elderly man truly that legendary doctor?At this moment, the old doctor's eyes were filled with arrogance.A flash of disdain appeared in Nicholas Phillips' eyes, but he still respectfully said, "Old Mr. Gibson... please examine my grandfather."After speaking, he turned to Anthony with a cold tone, "Kid, get lost! You're not qualified to treat my grandfather."Anthony was beginning to dislike this fellow and was about to speak when old Mr. Phillips suddenly convulsed and coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood."Grandfather..."Serena Phillips was immediately struck with panic.Nicholas Phillips also hurriedly ru

"Is that so?"Anthony smiled coldly and said, "How about we make a bet? Let's see if I can cure old Mr. Phillips or not.""Hmph!"Jonathan Gibson snorted disdainfully and said, "Kid, I'll take that bet! Do you think my decades of medical experience could be wrong? If you can cure old Mr. Phillips, I'll kneel before you right here and take you as my master!""But... if you fail to save him, you'll be at Mr. Phillips' mercy. How about that?"Anthony shrugged and smiled lightly, "That's fine with me..."After speaking, Anthony turned to Serena Phillips and said, "Miss Phillips, I need a feather, cinnabar, and a bowl of clear water!""Understood!"Serena Phillips didn't dare hesitate and immediately sent someone to prepare the items.About ten minutes later, someone brought the feather and cinnabar. Then, Anthony ordered old Mr. Phillips' upper garments to be removed.Immediately, Anthony dipped the feather in some cinnabar, stirred it in the clear water, and began drawing on old Mr. Phil

The moment they stepped in, Anthony felt an intense chill.Despite the summer heat, a cold, ghostly air pervaded the room.Something was wrong.Anthony focused his senses—and immediately his expression changed.Below them!The ground beneath their feet was hollow.Tensing, Anthony grabbed Maria and leapt onto the wall."Ah!" Maria yelped.Anthony swiftly covered her mouth and gestured for silence.Maria blinked her big eyes and nodded obediently.In the next instant, Anthony gathered force into his arm and struck the ground with a mighty blow.Boom!Dust and debris flew everywhere.When the dust finally cleared, Maria stood frozen, her little face pale with shock.A gaping, black hole yawned before them, cold air seeping from within.Anthony frowned. "This is it."The chill was definitely coming from the hole.Maria wasn’t so surprised by the hidden entrance—what truly shocked her was Anthony’s sheer strength. One punch had caused such devastation!Anthony turned to her. "You wait out

"Anthony," she said kindly, "you've seen how our family lives. We really can't offer you money. You saved my life, and I must repay you somehow. Please, tell me if there's anything you need. I’ll do everything in my power."Hearing this, Anthony waved his hands quickly. "Really, Auntie, there's no need. I lack nothing.""That won’t do," she said seriously. "It’s only right to repay kindness."Anthony sighed, just about to say something, when his phone rang in his pocket.The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number. But Anthony wasn’t surprised—he had just gotten a new phone number, so it was natural he hadn’t saved many contacts yet. Still, if someone wanted to find him, they would.He answered the call.A soft, whispery voice came through."Hello? Is this Anthony?"Anthony froze.Who was this?"I’m sorry, who is this?" he asked coolly.The girl on the other end huffed and said, "It’s Maria Smith! You don’t recognize my voice, Anthony?"It really was her.Anthony blinked in surprise. He

Rowan Thompson’s face darkened at Anthony’s words.In front of so many people, this kid had the nerve to call him a quack? It was a slap to his dignity.Furious, Rowan barked, "Kid, if you can bring this woman back to life, I'll kneel, kowtow, and call you Grandfather!"Hearing such a resolute vow, Anthony sneered, "I don't want a grandson as old as you. How about this—if I bring her back, you strip naked and streak through the hospital?""What the hell? Does he really think he can raise the dead?""Yeah! She has no vital signs at all. Isn’t this just a joke?"Though Rowan was seething, he nodded firmly. "Fine! But if you fail...""The same!" Anthony said without hesitation. "I'll strip and run around naked too."Rowan smirked coldly. "Good. You all heard him, right?""We heard!" the crowd echoed.Without further delay, Anthony strode forward, lifted the white sheet, and revealed the pale face of Phoebe and Layla Nelson’s mother.Without hesitation, Anthony flipped his hand, and a han

Half an hour later.Serena Phillips drove Anthony to a Western restaurant in downtown Silverhaven City.At the entrance of the restaurant, a tall and graceful woman was already waiting.The moment Anthony stepped out of the car, he spotted Phoebe Nelson.Almost simultaneously, Phoebe saw Anthony too. She immediately jogged toward him.Anthony raised an eyebrow.Well, well!Those long legs...Such a slender figure!She was already strikingly beautiful with an extraordinary aura. Now, with light makeup, she looked almost ethereal.Most impressively, she could still manage a little run in high heels, drawing the attention of many passersby."Good evening, Vice President Jones!" Phoebe greeted, her smile blooming like a flower.At that moment, Serena Phillips also stepped out of the car.The instant Phoebe saw Serena, she froze.So beautiful!How could someone be so breathtaking?Her looks were flawless, her demeanor otherworldly—like an angel descending to earth.Could she be Vice Presid

"Dr. Gibson?"Serena Phillips raised a delicate eyebrow.Jonathan Gibson approached everyone and said to Hugo Phillips, "Old Mr. Phillips, I was the one who called Mr. Jones and asked him to come save you."Earlier, Jonathan Gibson had come to the Phillips family estate with a request for Hugo Phillips,But unexpectedly witnessed the confrontation with the masked man.Realizing something was wrong, Jonathan Gibson immediately contacted Anthony,Which explained Anthony's sudden appearance.Hearing Jonathan Gibson's words, Hugo Phillips quickly said, "Thank you, Dr. Gibson, for notifying Anthony! Otherwise, my granddaughter and I would have died here today."Jonathan Gibson smiled and waved his hand dismissively, "Old Mr. Phillips, since that's the case, perhaps you could help me with a small favor.""Absolutely, no problem at all," Hugo Phillips nodded.Anthony then interjected, "You can discuss that later. Let me treat your injuries first."With that, Anthony approached Hugo Phillips

Serena Phillips also understood her grandfather's intentions and called out, "Anthony, you can't afford to mess with 'Demon Manor'! Leave quickly! Don't worry about us!"Hearing their pleas, Anthony remained unmoved.He looked at the masked man and raised an eyebrow. "Sorry, I've never heard of this 'Demon Manor' place, so... you still have to die."Upon hearing this, the masked man said gravely, "Kid, if you kill me, both the Phillips family and you will suffer endless retribution from our Demon Manor. Can you bear that burden?""He's right! Anthony, take Serena and leave! I don't mind dying!" Hugo Phillips shouted anxiously.The masked man felt a surge of hope at these words.He was now certain this young man wouldn't dare kill him.So he roared, "Kid, withdraw your power and leave now! I'll pretend nothing happened! But if you remain stubborn and dare to fight me, the price you'll pay in the future will be absolutely terrifying!""Stubborn?!"Anthony laughed coldly, his eyes filled
Chapter 44
Hugo Phillips gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care who paid you or how much to kill us. I'll give you five times that amount! Plus, the Phillips family will pay you five hundred million dollars annually. You can do whatever you want with it!"At this point, he just needed to ensure one of them survived.He was already old; dying here wouldn't matter!Hearing this,The masked man laughed darkly, "Old fool, do you think I'm interested in money?"Serena Phillips spoke up, "What do you need? We'll try our best to satisfy your demands, but please show mercy and spare us.""Heh... I need your head!"The masked man looked at Serena Phillips and smiled, "Your granddaughter is quite lovely. Why doesn't she come with me and serve me well? Then I'll spare your grandfather. How about that?"At these words, Serena Phillips' expression changed dramatically.She felt an icy chill instantly penetrate her entire body.This man was targeting her.Immediately, Hugo Phillips positioned himself in fr

"Yes!"Raymond nodded.Hearing his confirmation, disbelief washed over everyone's faces."This... this can't be possible!""Indeed! If all of us old-timers couldn't solve it together, how could a young man do it?""Vice President, you're not joking, are you?"Raymond shrugged and said, "Whether I'm joking or not, you can investigate for yourselves. With your connections, finding out about the current condition of the Smith family's second daughter shouldn't be difficult."Upon hearing this, everyone present grew restless.Frederick Emerson's brow furrowed as he immediately said, "I'll make the call."With that, he took out his phone and dialed a number.After the call connected, Frederick Emerson directly voiced his doubts.But then, whatever was said on the other end instantly transformed his expression—From anger, to shock, to utter disbelief.A moment later, he hung up, looked at Raymond and Anthony, swallowed hard, and asked, "Is this truly Dr. Jones?""What do you think?"Raymon
Chapter 42
At this moment, Anthony said nothing more. He merely gave Charles Osborne a cold glance before stepping through the gates of the Medical Association.Raymond approached the two women and said sternly, "Come with me now. You'll both need to apologize properly to Mr. Jones and ensure he forgives you."Upon hearing Raymond's words, the women immediately tensed up, then nodded in unison.Meanwhile, Charles Osborne maintained a respectful expression throughout, not saying a word.Raymond gave him a meaningful look before following Anthony inside.Of course he knew who Charles Osborne was!A scion of the Osborne family who had earned his place in the Medical Association through genuine skill. His medical expertise was indeed considerable, which explained his arrogance.At this point, Charles Osborne had effectively been slapped in the face.Asking him to apologize and seek forgiveness from Anthony would be impossible for someone from such a prestigious family.So Raymond didn't even bother
