At that moment, Stefani laughed amusedly. She didn't expect Marco to make such a joke. Stefani's face turned red from laughing too much. She sneered cruelly. "Marco, you're right. This must be a fake black card, right? A tramp like you is so smart to think of something like that."

A low sigh escaped Marco's mouth. He raised the black card until it was level with his face. "This card is real."

The card was dove black in color with an elegant gold pattern. Marco's name was printed on the corner of the card. Marco pointed at it. "This is my card. My name is written here."

Stefani's face became ugly. This was the worst joke she had ever received. "Marco, if you're going to lie, don't lie to me. Your name is Marco, but your last name doesn't start with a G. You're Marco Santana."

Stefani suddenly covered her mouth. "Oops... I let it slip. I'm sorry for revealing your secret!"

She smiled, but it was evident that Stefani was mocking Marco.

The corners of Marco's lips twitched. He didn't know he was a Gallahad before. So, he always introduced himself as Marco Santana. His identity card also contained the name Santana, his mother's surname. Despite being showered with derogatory glares from Stefani and Evan, Marco remained calm. "This is my grandfather's card. Of course, with my identity as his grandson."

Stefani's laughter echoed. If anyone else had heard it, they would have believed it. However, Stefani had been in a relationship with Marco for years. She knew a lot of things that people didn't. "I don't believe it! I remember now. I used to tell you about the Black Card. I'm even more convinced that you made it yourself. You must have made it yourself!"

Marco frowned. Why was this woman's mind filled with petty things? That was nothing like the Stefani he knew. "What would I do something stupid like that for?"

Stefani's eyes bulged. "Of course, it was to come after me! You can't live without me. You parasite!"

"That's not important." Marco's gaze shifted to the  salesgirl. He thrust the black card again.  However, after hearing all that, the waiter hesitated. He reluctantly accepted the card.

"Can you guarantee this card is genuine, sir?" the salesgirl asked carefully. He did not offend the customer.

Marco smiled. He knew the doubt in the waiter's heart. "How would you know if you didn't try it?"

Hesitantly, the waitress finally picked up the card. He looked at the card. It seemed genuine and luxurious. However, in all the time she had worked here, she had never encountered a single customer who used such a card.  

On the other hand, Stefani and Evan continued to sneer at Marco. Just like the hoverer, they had never seen such a card before either.

"I've never seen a card like that," Evan said scornfully.

Stefani laughed sarcastically, showing her rows of white, clean teeth. "Only a fool would ever claim to have seen a card like that! I've seen many black cards before and never seen anything like that!"

Marco's face remained calm. If it was a fake, he didn't need to bother. He could simply call Will, who was on guard in the basement.  

Marco's gaze returned to the salesgirls. "Do it, I'm busy. If you don't finish it, how can I leave?"

The salesgirl nodded. His face still showed an apparent hesitation. She even looked at her friends a few times. If this card was fake, all the clothes Marco had picked up were automatically canceled. This meant that they would have to clean up after him without making any profit! However, the salesgirl still tried to be professional. "G-good, sir. I'll get it done."

The black card was attached to the payment machine. There was a click, meaning the payment had been completed. The salesgirl could only hold his breath. He was surprised but happy at the same time.

This was a transaction for 2 million dollars! Yes, two million dollars! And it doesn't require a pin to complete?

The salesgirls's heart was beating fast. She had made the right decision by not offending Marco. Her hands were pounding as she handed the card to its owner.

"G-guest, thank you." The salesgiel became very nervous. This young man in front of him was a young master from a wealthy family.

Not noticing the salesgirl's nervousness, Marco remained relaxed. He accepted the card and put it straight into his wallet like it was nothing.

Meanwhile, Stefani's face became very ugly. This was a two-million-dollar transaction. How could a poor guy like Marco possibly get it done? She was angry, she was furious. There was a hint of pain beginning to creep into her heart.

"How is it possible?" muttered Stefani. Both hands covered her mouth, still unable to believe this was real.

Evan stood up with shame filling his soul. He had insulted Marco cruelly earlier. Even though Marco had been humbly willing to advise him, he had still insulted him cruelly. This was their first meeting. He could have established a relationship with Marco if he had been willing to leave Stefani. However, she could only regret it. She had ruined her career path!

"Who are you?" Evan asked.

Marco stood proudly, showing his dominance. "You're not the important person who needs to know my identity!"

It was like a hard slap to Evan's face.

Shamelessly, Stefani said confidently. "That card... that card should be mine!"

Startled and worried that something was wrong with his ear, Marco scratched it. "I didn't hear wrong? This card is yours?"

Stefani raised her face, showing a great deal of confidence. "Yes! You've been maltreating me! You must hand over the card as compensation!"

Marco almost vomited blood when he heard that. This woman... this woman has a thick face!

Marco's face turned fierce. He hated bringing up his past, even if it was only yesterday afternoon. He advanced until there was only a step between him and Stefani. "Do you think I care? Did you treat me well back then?"

"Of course! You never had any money and became a hitchhiking son-in-law! You were just a trashy guy before, and it disgusted me! You have to compensate me for disgusting me!" Stefani's words were spoken in such a frontal manner. The salesgirls were shocked.

Marco took a glance at Evan. "If you want treasure, the man beside you must-have treasure to please you!"

"I don't have any more money to spend. Sorry, Stefani. However, I think today's shopping is enough." Evan looked resigned as he said it.

Stefani was angry. Her eyes were so red that her body trembled. The people there looked at her with disgusted faces, like they were looking at trash. With all the shame she endured, Stefani turned around, leaving quickly while cursing Evan. "You idiot! You're completely useless!"

    The long journey that took sixty minutes ended with Robert returning to the starting point of Marco's house. The man had been blindfolded and could see the sunlight illuminating the courtyard. Robert let out a long sigh. He stood by the door, where Marco sat on the sofa quietly, before walking in and sitting in front of Marco like last night when they first met."Thank you very much," Robert said sincerely. The man took a deep breath and looked calmly at Marco. "Thank you so much for helping Anna. And you take it easy, whatever you want, tell me. I will give it to you as a gift," Robert added solemnly. To him, nothing was more important than health for Anna. Even if she had to die, it wasn't a big deal to him.Marco nodded, along with the waiter who brought tea for him and Robert. "Of course, I'm not one to help without asking for something in return."Robert just chuckled before clearing his throat. The man put his hands into the pockets of the suit he was wearing. "Oh yes, I have

    Not only Robert but Marco is now also standing in front of a room that has a glass barrier. Where, it appears that Anna is conducting a series of examinations with inlets. Starting from the scan and also how her physical condition is now. With the help of a doctor and two nurses, plus a scientist on guard there, Anna was checked as a whole to make sure nothing was missed at all.As Marco, the man turned to Robert. Robert seemed to clench his hands and keep them under his mouth. Her eyes looked so worried. Marco was sure that she was not feeling well.So, Marco chose to calm her down. "Calm down. Your sister is being examined. You can look at him and stay positive. Anna will be fine."Upon hearing that, the tense Robert turned his head and smiled slightly stiffly. The man let out a long breath and closed his eyes. His head looked up slightly, trying to dispel the thousand and one unpleasant thoughts and prejudices he had. Anna had started all kinds of examinations before, and they alw

    And just as Marco had asked, the next morning, an hour after sunrise, Robert appeared at Marco's residence. The man came with the personal driver serving the Veliiy family. And when Marco saw him, Robert had a small smile."Please, Mr. Robert," Will said as he opened the door. Robert nodded and entered the living room, where he was already there, and looked at him directly. For a moment, the two men looked at each other.Until Marco got up and walked over to the older man. "You've come, and where's your sister?" he asked reassuringly. Marco had not yet seen the woman Robert had told him about.He had only seen Robert coming with the driver before entering here.Robert nodded and then looked back. He waved his hand, signaling the waiter to come towards him. And when the waiter saw her, he nodded and walked around to the other side.Now Robert walked back outside and approached his servant. And from there, Marco saw someone he had never seen before. Robert approached while pushing the w

    And now, things were quieter than before. The firearm Marco had brought with him had been placed on the table and posed no threat to Robert. Although the man still occasionally glances at her, remembering the sensation that Marco had caused him a few minutes ago.Both men are seated on their respective sofas as they were at the beginning of the meeting. The two of them were facing each other, and Marco started flipping through the file that Robert had brought as proof of their past cooperation.Marco gave a small nod. "Apparently, my predecessor did get a lot of favours from your family."Marco saw that one of them was helping with the investment at the beginning of building his family's big name. In fact, one of the most memorable was the dispatch of troops when his family was attacked by outsiders who did not like the success of the family head."Because of your intelligence as well as your stubbornness, I will accept your offer." Marco's eyes now turned to look at Robert and saw a

    Robert looked at Marco with cold eyes. He paused for a moment and let out a long breath. "I'm not joking or imagining. I know the truth. And because I have such curiosity and confidence, I believe that the Galahad family can help my brother."Robert then clenched his hands into fists, remembering his efforts to help his brother recover. "I've seen so many of the best doctors this city offers. I even went abroad to get the best results."The man took a deep breath and shook his head, his hands raised openly. Her shoulders lifted in despair. "Still nothing works.""I might be able to form my medical team. But the research and gathering took so long. It can't be just one or two months. Even in ten years, I may not be able to get it," Robert said at length.His eyes seemed to glaze over slightly, a shadow of someone present in the man's head. "While my brother's lifespan can probably be counted, he doesn't have that long to wait for me. And now he needs something fast, something that can

    The living room was quiet, with Marco and Robert sitting across from each other at a glass table. Marco crossed his legs and looked straight at the man who was seven years older than him.As for Robert, the man looked at Marco sharply before taking a slow breath. "I came here because I heard that the head of the Galahad family has changed."The man looked Marco straight in the eye without blinking. He looked confident and calm at the same time. "And as part of the Velliy family, I would say that the Galahad family is indebted to him. That's why I want you to give me a favor."Robert didn't want to waste time with small talk. He had something to pursue and made sure that everything went well. There was no time to think things over and over again. He was already here and had made up his mind from the moment he saw the opportunity.Marco rested his hands calmly on his thighs and looked at Robert seriously. "On what basis do you dare to say such a thing?" It took more than words to convin
