CHAPTER 415
When Jeff finally arrived home, he walked straight into the living room and found Darren already seated beside his grandfather.Jeff looked from Darren to Derek with a curious expression.“Young master, what happened? Why did you cancel our appointment with the president and ask me to come home instead?”Derek also turned his attention toward Darren. He had been wondering about the same thing.“Yes, Darren. What happened at the chamber? Why did you suddenly call Jeff home?”Darren was about to answer.“I found out something very important, and—”Before he could finish his sentence, several loud engine sounds suddenly came from outside.Everyone stopped.The sounds grew louder.There were engines from both cars and motorcycles, and whoever was outside was clearly not trying to remain quiet. The combined noise echoed around the compound as if the people outside deliberately wanted everyone inside the mansion to know that they had arrived.Darren frowned.“What is that?”Jeff immediately
CHAPTER 414
The moment the chief lawyer heard Joseph's offer, the professional attitude he had been trying so hard to maintain disappeared in a second. There was no need for him to pretend anymore.Even if someone had offered to buy Austagon Chamber for the three billion dollars it was worth, he would have gladly accepted. But Joseph was offering ten billion dollars!That was more than three times the actual value of the chamber.The chief lawyer looked at the check again, and his eyes brightened.“Mr. Whitmore, please give me a second.”Joseph nodded with a faint smile.“Take your time.”The chief lawyer hurried out of the office and headed straight toward his secretary's office. He disappeared through the door and returned less than five minutes later with a document in his hands.Joseph looked at the document and raised an eyebrow.“You already had this prepared?”The chief lawyer gave an awkward smile.“It is just a standard ownership transfer document. We have several documents like this pr

Darren frowned and muttered under his breath, wondering what the bastard was doing at Austagon Chamber.Something about Joseph’s sudden appearance did not feel right.Darren watched the red convoy disappear from the entrance before quietly walking into the chamber. He did not want Joseph to notice him, so he kept his distance and moved through the large building until he found a quiet corner where he could observe without being seen.He folded his arms and narrowed his eyes.“System, track Joseph Whitmore,” Darren commanded silently.[Command received.]A second later, the system connected to the security cameras throughout the enormous building. Darren could see Joseph and the men who came with him moving through the chamber.“Show me where he is going.”The system followed Joseph’s movement from one camera to another.Darren watched as Joseph walked down a hallway before finally stopping in front of an office.His eyes narrowed when he recognized the person waiting inside.It was th
CHAPTER 412
The next morning, at exactly eight o’clock, Darren and Jeff arrived at Austagon Chamber. The lawyers were already waiting for them in one of the conference rooms, with all the documents they had gathered spread across the table.Darren took his seat while Jeff placed the remaining documents on the table.One of the lawyers picked up the main file and said, “We have gone through everything several times, but I think we should review the case one final time before we go to court.”Jeff nodded. “That is fine. We do not want to make any mistakes.”The lawyer opened the file and began going through the documents carefully.“Our main argument is straightforward,” he explained. “The properties in question had already been transferred from Derek Hilton to Darren before Joseph Whitmore carried out his deception. The transfer documents were prepared and submitted before the incident involving Joseph. That gives us a strong legal position.”Another lawyer nodded. “The most important thing is tha
CHAPTER 411
Joseph's man continued standing in front of him with a dark smile on his face.“I checked with the agency that handled the purchase of the mansion,” he explained. “They confirmed that the mansion was purchased by Darren Hilton himself. He was the one who paid for it.”Joseph's expression became serious.“Darren?”“Yes, sir.”Joseph narrowed his eyes.“How much did he pay?”“More than five hundred million dollars.”Joseph stared at him in disbelief.The information was becoming more difficult to understand.“If the Hiltons have lost everything, where did Darren get that kind of money?”“That is what I have been trying to find out.”The man paused before continuing.“I also investigated what they have been doing since they returned to the city. I discovered something important.”Joseph leaned forward.“What?”“They have found a loophole.”“A loophole?”“Yes. A way to legally take back almost everything you took from them.”Joseph's face immediately darkened.“What kind of loophole?”“I
CHAPTER 410
Darren stood in front of Marcus and looked at him calmly.For several seconds, Marcus could not bring himself to meet Darren's eyes.He had already realized that there was no way out of the situation. The chief lawyer had made it clear that he had to honor the agreement, and Darren was not going to forget the bet.Darren finally spoke.“Kneel.”Marcus's face turned red with embarrassment.For a brief moment, he wished the ground would open beneath him and swallow him completely.He looked around the room.Almost everyone was watching him.Some of the junior lawyers had their phones in their hands, while others were trying to hide their excitement.Marcus took a deep breath.He had no choice.Slowly, he lowered himself and knelt in front of Darren.The room became completely silent.Darren looked down at him.“Are you ready?”Marcus swallowed.“Yes.”His voice was barely audible.Darren raised his hand.The next moment, his palm came across Marcus's face with tremendous force.Smack!M
