Chapter 445: Not a simple man
“Alright,” Alistair replied after Isabella's report and then ended the call.“Oh, done with the call already?... So what did your contact say?” Trina asked in a mocking tone, holding back her laughter. “That it's done.”“Oh.” Trina's phone suddenly rang, cutting her off.Frowning, she took out her phone to find that it was her father who was calling her.She answered. “Hey, Dad.”“Trina, who the fuck did you offend!... What have you done!?”Taken aback at her father screaming at her, Trina inquired. “Dad, what's going on?”“What's going on is that we are bankrupt!” “What!?” Trina couldn't believe her ears as her eyes widened in shock.She stared at Alistair, who remained calm even now, merely staring at her.“Dad, what do you mean we are bankrupt?”Others who had been laughing quickly quieted down upon hearing her question.Bankrupt?... What did she mean they were bankrupt?“What the hell do you think bankruptcy means!... We are broke!” Luther screamed at the other end, clearly unab
Chapter 444: Responding in kind
Murmurs broke out among those in line as they began to mock Alistair.“See what I said; I knew she'd end up teaching him a lesson. It's his mistake for thinking he could prevent Miss Trina from having her way.”“Now I'm sure he's going to regret ever standing up in the first place. Next time, he'd learn to keep his mouth shut.”Meanwhile, Trina smirked as she stared at Alistair, who remained calm as he remarked.“So, for calling you out, you plan to be unreasonable.”“Unreasonable?... Of course, this punishment is not permanent. In fact, I would be happy to release it right now if this fine gentleman goes on his knees and begs for my mercy like a dog. Maybe then, I'd be inclined to lift this punishment. What do you think, Mister Roman? Is this me being reasonable, right?” Mister Roman nodded. “Absolutely.”Then, to Alistair, he remarked. “What are you waiting for? Quickly beg for mercy, else you can say goodbye to whatever you came here for and get out because I don't plan to attend
Chapter 443: Encounter with a spoilt brat
Alistair wasn't in a rush so he accepted after which he found a place to sit while waiting for his turn.After almost two hours of waiting, it was finally his turn but just as he waited for the receptionist to call him up, a woman walked in, accompanied by four guards.“Miss Trina.” The receptionist greeted respectfully while the others that were there began to murmur amongst themselves.“Isn't that Miss Trina Merino, daughter of Luther Merino, one of the richest men in the city?”“I think it's her.”“Oh my goodness, she's so beautiful. I've never seen her in person. She looks just like a princess.”“I wish I could talk to her just once.”“Keep dreaming. She only talks with celebrities and the big dogs of society. If you want to talk with her, have at least a billion dollars in your account.”Meanwhile, Alistair was waiting for Trina to finish talking so he could get his card to head in to see the officer in charge of giving out visas.“I need to speak with the officer in charge about
Chapter 442: Learning of a treasure hunt
Dustin’s eyes widened in disbelief. "D-Dad?!"Elizabeth released Dustin's collar, letting him slump pathetically to the floor like a sack of lead.She turned her cool, calculating gaze toward Richard."You have two hours, Patriarch Cage," Elizabeth declared, her voice echoing with absolute authority across the courtyard. "You can either disown Dustin Cage or wait for me to do what I want. Because I can assure you, if Dustin is still a member of the Cage family tomorrow, I will destroy everything you own.”She glanced sideways at Alistair, whose faint, terrifying smile sent a wave of paralyzing fear through both Richard and Dustin."...then the Cage family will join the Sturridges in absolute nonexistence.""I-I'll do it! I'll do it immediately!" Richard stammered, bowing repeatedly as he dragged his weeping son toward the mansion interior. "Thank you for your mercy, Miss Bolton! Thank you, Master Reid!"Elizabeth turned on her heel, her blazer sweeping around her as she walked back do
Chapter 441: No one gets away with sabotage
Dustin Cage walked out onto the stone porch, a glass of crystal scotch in hand, flanked by four burly, high-tier bodyguards in dark suits. A smug, arrogant grin plastered his face, though it wavered slightly when he saw Alistair step out of the passenger side."Well, well," Dustin sneered, leaning against the marble pillar as he looked down at Elizabeth. "If it isn't the proud heiress of the Bolton family. What are you doing here? I hope it's not to beg me to marry you because I can tell you now, I'm not interested.”“In your dreams Dustin.” Elizabeth coldly remarked. “I'm here because you had the audacity to set a trap for my brother. Who do you think you are?”“Trap?” Dustin feigned ignorance. “I don't know what you are talking about.”“Really?” Elizabeth reached into her blazer pocket, pulling out Victoria Beckham’s sleek, encrypted smartphone, throwing it casually onto the marble steps right at Dustin’s feet.It landed with a loud, sharp crack."Victoria’s personal device," Eliza
Chapter 440: The Cage family estate
"Well, Inspector?" Elizabeth asked, her voice laced with absolute contempt. "Does this meet your high standards of evidence? Or should I forward this directly to the Commissioner and the Chief of Police along with your badge number?"The inspector swallowed hard, his throat dry as bone. "Miss Bolton... I... I was simply acting on the initial report—""Save it," Elizabeth cut him off sharply. She turned to the two officers holding Jacob. "Unchain my brother. Immediately."The officers didn't hesitate.They practically fumbled with the key, unclipping the handcuffs and stepping back.Jacob rubbed his wrists, stumbling forward and throwing his arms around Elizabeth. "Big sis... thank you. I swear I didn't do anything, I swear...""I know, Jacob. Hush now, it's over," Elizabeth murmured soft words of comfort, patting his back before turning her sharp eyes back onto Victoria, who was now trembling violently on the sofa.Elizabeth tucked the phone into her own purse. "This phone stays with
