Chapter 283: Feasting the Great Families
The Hand family’s base is in Peffers City, so they wield extraordinary control over the area around Peffers City. However, Pras City is the stronghold of the Green family, so the Hand family’s influence in Pras City is far inferior to that of the Green family.Originally, each of the major families in Peffers City had their own spheres of influence, and everyone maintained this tacit understanding, respecting one another. No one would expand their power into another’s territory.Sanderson had no intention of in Pras City initially, but the key issue is that his eldest son, Lewis, now wants to marry Lucia from the Green family. To achieve this goal, Lewis will need to stay in Pras City for a long time in the future. Therefore, Sanderson plans to first with these families in Pras City, which can also bring sufficient convenience to Lewis in Pras City in the future.Lewis has been feeling somewhat irritable these past two days. Firstly, when Sanderson mentioned the marriage alliance to t
Chapter 282: Pretending to Be Talented
Jared was shaking with anger at Gilmore’s words! He had occasionally seen memes like Auntie, I don’t want to work hard anymore on various headline news feeds on his phone.Back then, he’d even had a crooked thought: if he ever got rich in the future, and a young, beautiful girl came to him saying, Uncle, I don’t want to work hard anymore, he could just send her his address and tell her to come directly to him...Of course, this was just a fantasy in his head. He’d never had the courage or the ability to turn it into reality.But now, hearing Gilmore talk about his wife like that, for some reason, the mental image became vividly clear!He even imagined a scene where a young man was sitting in his wife’s arms, obsequiously calling her auntie...For a moment, Jared felt as if countless green hats were weighing down on his head, and his heart burned with rage.In that instant, consumed by urgency and anger, he gritted his teeth and cursed: Gilmore, who do you think you are to mock my wife
Chapter 281: Coming to the Door
After speaking, Alan moved to close the door.At that moment, Gilmore heard the commotion and ran over. Seeing the two at the door, he couldn’t help but frown and asked, What are you doing here?Old Mrs. Mir let out a cold snort and questioned with full authority, Gilmore! Do you still have any respect for me as your mother in your eyes?Gilmore froze, then said, It was you who wanted to cut off relations with me. You should ask yourself if you have any regard for me as your son.Old Mrs. Mir’s expression turned ugly, and she blurted out, Blood is thicker than water! No matter when, I am your mother!Having endured his mother’s grievances for so many years, Gilmore had finally had enough. He said angrily, When you got tired of me, you wanted to cut off relations. But when you need something from me, suddenly you’re my mother again? I’m sorry, but I don’t want a mother like that!With that, Gilmore turned around and walked back into the house.Alan looked at Old Mrs. Mir and Jared, smi
Chapter 280 Disappearance 3
Ivy felt a little guilty. After all, the three people who had played mahjong with her today, along with a group of thugs, had all been sent to dig coal. If their families found out she was involved, they might take revenge on her. And if the police were called, she wouldn’t be able to defend herself!So she had to keep denying it! She impatiently said to Jared: You’re really something. Do you think I don’t know whether I’ve seen her or not? I haven’t seen her—end of story!Jared didn’t care about exposing himself anymore and quickly said: Ivy, don’t hang up yet. Be honest with me—did you see her or not? Where did she go? This afternoon, she sent me messages on social media saying she was playing cards with you, and even said she’d won your son-in-law Allen’s Tomson Yipin villa. How could you not have seen her?Ivy quickly replied: Jared, you’re talking nonsense. When did you people win our villa?Besides, I said I haven’t seen Nora, and that’s final! I can’t stand her, so why would I
Chapter 279 Disappearance 2
Jared had no choice but to sit on the chair, repeatedly hanging up and redialing. For a full half-hour, the call still prompted that the phone was powered off.Jared felt more and more that something was wrong... Logically, Nora had gone out to set up a scam with Roman, and they were indoors, not outdoors, so charging her phone should have been convenient.Moreover, he had reminded her earlier to keep in contact at all times, so that if anything unexpected happened, he could go to her rescue.Therefore, she shouldn’t have turned off her phone. What on earth was going on?At the thought, he couldn’t help but sit up straight, his expression turning serious as he muttered to himself: This isn’t right...The Mill matriarch glanced at him and snorted: Quit putting on an act for me. What’s really going on!Jared suddenly felt an irritation, and a faint sense of unease crept over him.So he said to the old lady: Mom, please stop making trouble for now. I can’t get in touch with Nora. I’ll tr
Chapter 278 Disappearance 1
By the time Allen returned home after buying groceries, Gilmore was sitting in the living room, holding a cup of tea in one hand. When he saw Allen come in, he immediately smiled and said: My good son-in-law, you’re back!Allen smiled and called out, Dad. Then, noticing that Mia and his mother-in-law Ivy weren’t in the living room, he asked: Have Mia and Mom come back?Mia hasn’t come back yet, but your mom has.Gilmore waved his hand and said: Your mom went straight to her room as soon as she got back, saying she’s not feeling well. Who knows what’s wrong—maybe she lost money playing mahjong and is feeling upset about it!Allen nodded and deliberately asked: Should you go check on her? Show some concern?Gilmore snorted. All she does all day is play mahjong—it’s annoying as hell. If she really lost money, let her wallow in it. After two days of feeling miserable, she’ll know to hold back!Allen couldn’t help but laugh. Today, Ivy had lost over $30 million! Just thinking about it, All
