The murmurs from the crowd were all directed at the woman, their voices heavy with condemnation.But instead of feeling ashamed, she looked even more arrogant. “What’s it got to do with you people? This is between me and him. Mind your damn business!”Everyone shook their heads.They now understood she was nothing but a shrew and didn’t bother arguing anymore.After all, she drove a luxury car—not someone the average person wanted to mess with.Most chose to stay silent, preferring peace over conflict.At that moment, the woman turned to Anthony, her tone even more outrageous. “I’m telling you—without at least a million, don’t even think about leaving!”She had no other agenda.She simply wanted to extort some money.After all, such opportunities didn’t come often.She could tell the man and the woman weren’t keen on creating trouble, which made her even bolder.And she wasn’t worried about the police or consequences.She had backing in Silverhaven.Her patron was none other than Isai

The security guards roared in unison and immediately began attacking the group without hesitation.After all, the welfare home staff were just ordinary people—no match for the trained guards.Within moments, the staff were beaten black and blue, groaning and crying in pain.Seeing this, Director Osborne couldn’t hold back his tears.Today was nothing short of a disaster for them.“Children, quickly! Go hide in the cafeteria!”Director Osborne urged the children inside and locked the doors behind them.Meanwhile, Nicholas O’Connor’s men stormed into the dormitories and began a frenzied search.Director Osborne’s heart sank in despair.It seemed that the check couldn’t be saved today.But as long as the children were safe, that was all that mattered.Soon, the staff of the welfare home were all lying on the ground, unable to get up from the beatings.Not long after—“Boss, we found it…”“Over here!! Fuck, a hundred million!!”A voice shouted excitedly from Osborne’s office.Moments late

The next morning. Welfare Orphanage. It was eight o'clock, breakfast time.Today, Director Osborne looked especially cheerful. He called out to the children in the dining hall, “Kids! Eat up! After breakfast, I’ll take you all to the Ocean Park!”“Yay!!”“I want to see the big shark!”“I want to see the big tiger!”“Dummy, how can there be tigers at Ocean Park!”Laughter and excited chatter filled the air as the children burst into cheers.To them, any trip outside was pure happiness.Director Osborne chuckled and added, “If you all eat well, I’ll take you to both Ocean Park and the zoo. How about that?”“Director, you’re the best!”“We’ll be good! You have to show us the big tiger!”The children’s voices rang out in unison.Osborne and the staff exchanged smiles.Now that they had Anthony’s donations, the pressure on the orphanage had lessened significantly. With Caroline Hill’s long-standing support, the children never lacked for anything. The future looked brighter than ever.Osb

In that split second, the assassin pulled the trigger.Bang!Bullets tore through the night sky, whistling toward Anthony.But just as the rounds flew, Anthony summoned the energy within him. His body trembled slightly—And in a flash, a golden energy shield formed in front of him.Clang!The bullet struck the barrier with a sharp, metallic ring, as if it had hit a wall of steel.“What?!” the assassin gasped.He fired several more rounds in rapid succession.Bang bang bang!Muffled by the silencer, the shots sparked against the golden shield.Ding ding ding!None of the bullets made it through.The assassin was stunned.He didn’t hesitate—his finger tightened on the trigger again.But in that moment, Anthony moved.Thud!A deep, dull impact echoed.“Ugh!” the assassin cried.He hadn’t even seen what happened—only a blur of shadow before his whole body felt like it had been hit by a freight train. He was sent flying, crashing more than ten meters away, his gun skidding across the groun

Francis’s smile grew chilling as he replied, “Oh, we definitely have business. You’re coming with me.”Freya’s face went pale.Realizing the danger, she immediately tried to start the car and escape.But in an instant, Francis climbed in beside her and placed his hand on the central console.Hiss…A faint white smoke began to rise.Freya’s panic deepened. “What… what do you want from me? I—I’ve never done anything to your family!”She couldn’t understand how she’d ended up in this situation.“I suggest you don’t resist,” Francis said slowly. “As long as you come quietly, nothing will happen to you.”“Ah! What do you want from me?” she cried out.Francis’s voice turned cold. “It’s simple. Arrange a meeting with Anthony for me.”The moment he said that, Freya froze in shock—her fear replaced by a flicker of surprise.Afternoon. Silverhaven City.Anthony and Caroline Hill stepped out from the headquarters of Horizon Group.Anthony had spent most of the day at the company. But now, a ser

Meanwhile, Anthony and Caroline Hill, led by Raymond, arrived at the Phoenix Pavilion.Inside the private room sat a solemn-looking middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, dressed in a crisp white shirt. His short hair was neatly trimmed, though streaked with gray at the temples. The lines on his face told of time and experience.“Mr. Jones, this is Mayor Kingsley Hamilton of Silverhaven City,” Raymond introduced respectfully.Anthony glanced at Kingsley Hamilton, a flicker of sharpness passing through his gaze. He nodded and said, “Nice to meet you, Mayor Hamilton.”Kingsley studied him with curiosity, smiling warmly. “Mr. Jones, I must say, I’m impressed. To become the Vice President of the Medical Association at such a young age—truly admirable.”But instead of accepting the praise, Anthony stared at him for a moment, then calmly said, “Mayor Hamilton, if you ask me—you’re sick.”Instantly, the mayor’s expression froze.The smile on his face stiffened as he responded, voice low, “Mr.
