At this moment, someone from the Cavendish family hurried over and exclaimed anxiously, “Bad news, Mr. Cavendish Senior. Heaven Media, the Luxe, and several other entertainment joints and bathhouses have been seized!”

“What?!” Hugo stood up in shock, and his expression changed. “What’s going on? Why were they seized all of a sudden?”

The family member stammered, “Someone reported us and… they found some illegal items in the companies… Some of our artists have also exposed us and said that we forced them… Anyway, they found a lot of evidence against us!”

Terrence suddenly stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, and hollered furiously, “Didn’t I tell you long ago to hide those things that shouldn’t appear? Aren’t those artists under strict control? Why did they suddenly sue us?”

“I-I don’t know…” The family member looked at Terrence, whose face was twisted into an angry grimace, and he was so scared that he started shivering in fear and was on the verge of tears.

  • Please, spare us!

    “Please spare us, we didn't do anything wrong!” Some of the hostages began to plead for their lives with some even daring to offer the gunmen money in exchange for freedom.One of them was the wife of a wealthy businessman who was kneeling next to Victoria.“Please, I can pay you anything, just don't harm me, please.” the woman said, hopeful that they would accept her offer.Unfortunately for her, the leader of the gunmen wasn't at all moved by her offer as he bellowed. “Do you think you can buy me with the little change you have?”He didn't even give her a chance to respond as he aimed his gun at her and following that, a bang was heard.The woman was shot in the thigh causing her to scream out in pain as she toppled to the ground.Victoria who was kneeling beside her went pale with fear as she hastily tried to help the woman by applying pressure to her wound.The gunmen leader didn't pay any more attention to her as he bellowed. “You have all been taken hostage. Don't you dare move

  • Move out!

    Pursing his lips, Briggs pondered briefly, setting up a plan in his head before finally, he spoke up.“Sloan, lead a group to surround the hotel and negotiate with Ivan to the best of your abilities. Agree to everything he asks for to buy me some time.”“Yes, general.”“Luke. Take a few men with you and wait for my order to descend on the hotel's rooftop for an encirclement.”“On it, general.”“Sir, what about the hostages?” Draco asked.Briggs was just about to respond when William replied. “I'll take care of it.”Briggs glanced at him. “Are you sure?”William didn't immediately respond as he grabbed a military uniform that was passed to him and put it on Covering the entirety of his body to ensure his identity wasn't discovered once he made a move, William then replied. “I'll sneak into the hotel and disarm Ivan. I'll send the signal when he's been defeated. Once you receive my signal, lead the Legion into the hotel to deal with the mercenaries.”“You are going in alone?” Dante ask

  • The Ghost Army strikes again

    With that, he turned to Lieutenant Briggs and ordered. “Immediately seal off all assets owned by the Wilhelm family!... Any evidence of crimes committed by members of the Wilhelm family should be handed over to the local law enforcement for investigation. Lastly, handle matters concerning my identity discreetly. I don't want unnecessary speculation from outsiders.”“As you wish, general!” Lieutenant Briggs commanded.Upon hearing those words which were the same as a death sentence, Elvis was consumed by terror as he immediately prostrated himself before William, pleading for mercy. “Please, I beg of you, I'll do anything you ask!... Considering our past, spare me!... Spare my family!”However, instead of a red, Elvis was met with a forceful kick delivered by Lieutenant Briggs as he commanded the troops. “Take them all away!”Realizing that there was no escaping William's declaration, Elvis lost his mind as he screamed hoarsely. “William Belmont, I'll take you with me to hell!”Saying

  • Too late to beg for mercy

    With a cold expression on his visage, Elvis pointed at William, his tone seething with rage. “Why the hell do you have to keep on testing me?”“I'm testing you?” William inquired with a raised brow.“You'd best beg me to let you go otherwise I won't keep showing you mercy!” Elvis bellowed. “How dare a pathetic loser like you dare to keep on acting like you are something when you are nothing!... Today, I'll definitely make you understand your place in the world else my name is not Elvis Wilhelm!”“Don't you have something better to do?” William couldn't help but ask, causing Elvis to glare at him.“What did you just say to me?” “I asked if you have nothing better to do with your time?” William repeated, making sure that everyone heard it, not just Elvis.Elvis' face turned red as he bellowed. “Get this bastard!... Beat him to a pulp!”In an instant, the swarm of thugs charged toward William to end what they saw as his pathetic existence.But instead of fear, Elvis saw something else i

  • Taking things too far

    A mischievous grin formed at the corners of Elvis as he looked forward to seeing William kiss up to him like he once did to him.William's eyebrows furrowed as he replied. “I don't quite understand what you hope to achieve by approaching me with such an offer but I should let you know that it's not worth it. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I'll be taking my leave now.”With those words, William turned to take his leave without wasting any further time with Elvis. Unfortunately, Elvis wasn't about to let things go just like that as he grew furious, prompting him to shout. “You think you can just walk away?... I don't think so!”As soon as the words escaped his mouth, the bodyguards standing behind him stepped forward, swiftly encircling William.William's expression darkened as he turned to face Elvis once more, his tone laced with a frightening chill. “What is the meaning of this?”Elvis let out a sneer as he closed the distance between them, locking eyes with William before replying.

  • Bitter and hateful

    An hour later, Louis Bradley arrived at the restaurant, wearing a red suit.His mixed origin could be made out from his appearance but that was hardly important as he arrived before Lesley.Before Lesley could explain himself, a heavy slap landed on his cheek, sending him sprawling to the ground instantly.Grace immediately stepped back in fright while William remained calm, slightly pleased that the bully had gotten his fair share.Louis bellowed. "You useless piece of trash!... I gave you managerial rights of this branch and yet you dare do this?... Cherry is a respectable establishment and we don't treat our employees like this!... How dare you sully this family's business with their disgusting acts?""Uncle…”"Shut up!" Louis glanced at William. "I apologize for this, Mr. Wilson. I hope this doesn't give you an unpleasant outlook on our restaurant.""Not at all, however, this matter is not completely settled." William calmly replied."Oh?""I would like to buy this branch of your
