“Okay, just you wait and see!” In the end, Joel could only say these words before leaving Cecilia’s birthday party in disgrace.

But before he left, Joel glowered at William with a resentful and threatening gaze.

He blamed William for all the humiliation he suffered today.

William narrowed his eyes.

He didn’t have anything to do with the Wallaces currently, but if Joel insisted on courting death and creating trouble for him, he wouldn’t be kind to them.

After the annoying Joel and Kobe both left, Cecilia sighed in relief and then puffed her cheeks at William.

She said apologetically, “I’m really sorry for causing you trouble today, William.”

The reason she had asked William to be her shield was that she had gotten sick of Joel pestering her.

Impressive, huh?“He’s here to attend the exchange on behalf of Vice City today! Let me tell you.

  • Faded enthusiasm

    After being stared at for a long time, Celia naturally felt something.In particular, when she raised her head and saw the lecherous gaze in Bill’s eyes, her impression of this man became terrible.If not for the fact that he was Nessa’s boyfriend, Celia would have long cursed at him.“Hello,” Celia, suppressing her anger, replied indifferently without any intention to shake his hand.Bill’s facial expression immediately stiffened.He had planned to take liberties with Celia during the handshake and see just how soft the hands of the woman who was prettier than his girlfriend were.A trace of disappointment and anger appeared on his face, but he could only awkwardly retract his hand while striking up a conversation on his own. “You two are high school classmates. It's been a long time since you’ve met, huh?”Nessa said, “Yeah. After graduating, we went to college in different cities. It’s been more than five years since we last met! It’s a rare opportunity for us to meet here today, s

  • Unable to seek justice

    Flustered, he wanted to roll up the windows and turn around to flee, but how could he have the time to do so?Before he could start the car, a toned and muscular arm reached into the car through the window to grab his neck and pulled him out of the Maserati..“Help! Who… who the hell are you? I’m Joel Wallace's assistant. If you dare to lay a finger on me, the Wallaces won’t spare you!” After being dragged out of the car, the assistant was still issuing a threat while struggling.Eyes full of hatred, Ryan slowly walked up to the assistant. “Won’t spare me? Let me ask you. Where is my son, Kobe Preston?!”“You… you’re the helmsman of the Prestons?!” Joel’s assistant’s eyes widened as he looked at Ryan in disbelief.After hearing that Ryan was looking for Kobe, he instantly froze in place, and his body turned clammy all over.Oh my god!

  • Killing the assistant

    “Okay, stop talking to me about the exchange. I’m not in the mood to listen to it now. Has there been any news from the people sent out? Has Kobe been found?” Ryan unceremoniously interrupted the secretary’s report and asked about the matter that concerned him the most.“Uh, not yet…”As soon as the secretary answered, Ryan’s phone on the table suddenly started ringing.But it was actually a text message.“Joel Wallace’s people are preparing to burn Kobe’s corpse in the woods 30 kilometers southeast of Avalon. It’ll be too late if you don’t head there right now.”Ryan’s pupils suddenly shook.“What? Burning my son’s corpse? Are they planning to destroy his corpse and wipe out the traces?!”Ryan suddenly sprang up and punched the table.This sudden message was like a shocking thunderbolt striking the top of Ryan’s head.A chill ran down his spine all the way to his feet, making him feel as though he had plunged into an ice cellar.“No, this is impossible. My son is definitely not dead.
