Chapter 224
Zane drove his taxi across the long suspension bridge leading toward the glittering financial district, the steel cables humming faintly in the afternoon wind. Below, the river reflected the city lights like shards of broken glass.His final target was no ordinary businessman, but Silas Vane, CEO of Global Trust Bank. Silas was the “treasurer” behind the scenes who managed The Hell Corp’s massive cash flow, ensuring their funds flowed smoothly across borders without raising suspicion.If Silas switched sides, The Hell Corp would be paralyzed overnight, as all their assets would be frozen and their expansion plans would crumble instantly.However, Silas was a very cunning man. He worshipped only one thing: the numbers on his account balance. Loyalty meant nothing to him if it didn’t multiply his wealth. He was known in elite circles as a man who could sell his own shadow if the price was right.Zane arrived at Silas’s private penthouse at the top of a towering skyscraper. The building’

Zane stared at his phone screen with a sharp gaze. It was a message from his employee.“Sir, Dixon has just signed a partnership with The Hell Corp. He has invited the entire media to celebrate the ‘collapse’ of Chrizen Corp’s dominance this afternoon.”Zane let out an irritated snort. Dixon. The very mention of his name infuriated him. He was Louis’ friend. When Dixon had gone bankrupt in the past, it was Louis—through Chrizen Corp’s support—who had helped him recover.And now, he was celebrating Chrizen Corp’s downfall.He would have to pay the price.“You insolent bastard.” Zane tightened his grip on his phone.“You want to celebrate my downfall, traitor?” Zane muttered as he turned the ignition key of his taxi. “Then let’s give you an unforgettable show.”---The Grand Ballroom was filled with flashing cameras and buzzing reporters.Dixon stood proudly on stage, dressed in a suit worth thousands of dollars, a triumphant smile plastered across his face. Beside him stood Hansel from
Chapter 222
Zane drove his taxi to the upscale northern district, where Vancamp Corp.’s skyscraper stood proudly with its sharp, futuristic architecture—much like the personality of its owner, Elena Vancamp.Elena was known as the “Ice Queen” of the business world. She cared nothing for drama, had no regard for old connections, and most terrifyingly, she harbored a fierce hatred for men she perceived as weak.In the main lobby, Zane was confronted by four burly security guards.“Taxi drivers are not allowed in the executive elevator area,” one of them said condescendingly.Zane did not respond angrily. He simply held up his phone, displaying a gold-colored digital code—private access granted only to the highest-ranking partners of Chrizen Corp.“Tell Elena that Christopher’s envoy is here to see her,” Zane said coldly.“Understood,” the guard replied.Moments later, the office door opened, revealing a spacious room with a breathtaking view of the city skyline. Elena sat behind a large glass desk,

Zane exited the elevator with a relaxed expression. He felt calm after acquiring the Sales Professional attribute. It made completing missions significantly easier.However, as soon as he stepped into the lobby, he was met with a crowd of reporters and men in black uniforms filling the entire space. At the center stood Hansel, the vice-CEO of The Hell Corp, arrogantly answering questions from the press.Hansel’s attention quickly shifted to Zane. He looked him up and down before grinning sarcastically.“Are you here to betray Christopher now, or did he send you to beg Jaden?” Hansel sneered.All the cameras immediately turned toward Zane, but he remained completely unfazed.“Poor Christopher. His office exploded. Is he now sending his assistant to beg Jaden Wyatt?” Hansel added mockingly.The reporters laughed along with him. Camera flashes burst directly in Zane’s face.“Listen, Zane,” Hansel said as he stepped forward. He deliberately pulled out a $100 bill and dropped it on the flo

Zane had just stepped into his taxi when the phone in his jacket pocket vibrated briefly. A message had come in.[You can’t beat me, Mr. Christopher. So just give up.]Zane tightened his grip on his phone. His teeth clenched. It seemed that the owner of The Hell was watching his every move.“Bastard,” Zane muttered under his breath. He was extremely curious about the arrogant owner of The Hell, but he didn’t have time to investigate.He had to secure all his partners.The name Jaden Wyatt crossed his mind.Thirty minutes later, Zane arrived at Wyatt Corp’s headquarters. Without an appointment, he stormed inside, ignoring the secretary who was calling after him hysterically, and kicked open the door to Jaden’s office.Jaden Wyatt stood by the large window with his back to the door. He didn’t seem surprised.“You’re ten minutes later than I expected, Mr. Christopher,” Jaden said without turning around. His voice was deep and laced with contempt.“I’m not here for small talk, Jaden. You
Chapter 219
Zane jogged after Avery, who was just about to enter her luxury sedan in the grand marble lobby. The polished floor reflected the glittering chandelier above, and the faint scent of expensive perfume lingered in the air.is steps felt lighter than before, almost effortless, and a strange aura seemed to emanate from his every movement—the subtle yet undeniable effect of the Sales Professional skill he had just acquired.“Avery, wait!” Zane called out, his voice firm but controlled.Avery stopped mid-step, one hand already resting on the car door handle. She inhaled sharply, her shoulders rising and falling as she fought her irritation. When she turned around, her face was visibly annoyed, her red satin dress shimmering under the lobby lights. “Zane, I told you, my decision is final. Don’t make yourself look even more pathetic.”Zane didn’t get angry. The old him might have snapped back defensively, but now he simply smiled faintly—a calm, confident smile that somehow sent a faint shive
