Chapter 63: Mia in Danger 1
The next day, as soon as Mia got out of bed, she received a call from the old matriarch." Mia," the old woman said, "you must go to Reed Building Materials Group today. Try to talk to their boss and see if he can extend us a credit of $10 million worth of building materials. We’ll repay it once we get paid by Delaney Group."Mia hurried to say, "Grandma, Reed Building Materials Group is a huge business with significant bargaining power. They’ve always had a strict no-credit policy."The old matriarch sighed, "We have no choice. The Mill family’s cash flow is strained right now—we can’t afford to front so much capital anymore. Loans are also hard to come by, so we can only try our luck with Reed."She added, "Mia, the family is facing both internal and external crises. Your cousin has failed to live up to expectations, so you’re our only hope now. Find a way to negotiate with Padgett Reed, the boss of Reed Building Materials. If he agrees, we’ll have a chance!"After a moment’s hesita
Chapter 62: Too Shameless
But Allen suddenly turned around, took off his coat, and draped it over her shoulders. The man's coat was large, falling almost to her knees when she wore it."Sorry, the situation was urgent earlier, and I tore your clothes."After saying this, Allen nodded and turned to leave again.This person is really... thoughtful.The sound of an ambulance approached in the distance. Caroline stared (trance-like) at the man's retreating figure, suddenly struck by how familiar it seemed—like the back of Delaney Group's chairman.Could it really be him? A suspicion arose in Caroline's mind.But as she watched the man's figure grow smaller, she sighed. Without knowing his name or appearance, there was no way to verify her guess.Caroline took a few steps toward the oncoming ambulance but suddenly felt something under her foot. She bent down to pick it up and found a grayish-white Hetian jade pendant.It must have fallen out when sir squatted down to treat me!Caroline held the pendant joyfully, as
Chapter 61: Allen Appears
She didn't notice that a black BMW sedan was gradually approaching. Allen, who was driving, saw her at first glance, and his brows immediately furrowed tightly!Carol sat on the ground, covering the wound on her leg, and closed her eyes in despair.The young man squatted down, pinched her chin, and looked at her disheveled hair yet stubbornly turned head. The desire to torture her grew stronger in his heart.His fingers ambiguously stroked Caroline's face as he ordered, "Take her to my car. Let me have my fun first."Seeing the woman's pitiful appearance, the surrounding men couldn't help but remark, "Such a top-notch beauty is rare. Don't forget about us brothers!"The young man laughed heartily and said, "You'll get your turn after I've had my fun! What's the hurry!"Caroline turned pale as she listened to their undisguised filthy remarks.Just as she saw the young man approaching to grab her, two streams of tears fell from her eyes, and a resolve to die arose in her heart.Just as
Chapter 60 The useless Carlson
Carlson stared at the young man with blood all over his face and sneered, "If you don't scram, I'll break your legs too!"The young man gritted his teeth, covered his head and said, "Fine, you're tough. Just you wait!"With that, the young man covered his blood - soaked head and rushed out in a hurry.Carlson scoffed disdainfully and said, "A useless guy like that dares to threaten me?""Doesn't he even bother to find out who I, Carlson, am afraid of?"After saying that, he deliberately showed off to Caroline and said, "Caroline, let's continue our meal. Don't mind him."Caroline was in a bad mood after this disturbance. She nodded but didn't say anything.During the meal, Carlson tried several times to liven up the atmosphere, but Caroline completely ignored him.In her eyes, Carlson not only had no real ability but was also a bit too impulsive. Such a man simply didn't appeal to her.Carlson had thought that by directly beating that scoundrel in front of Caroline, she would be impre
Chapter 59: Celebrating the Promotion to Sales Director
She didn’t have many true friends in Pras City, and Mia was her only close friend.Now that she had been promoted to sales director, she had a bigger platform and a great opportunity to prove herself, but she couldn’t find anyone to celebrate with.Just as she was sighing with emotion, her phone suddenly rang. To her surprise, the caller was Carlson!Seeing Carlson’s name pop up, Caroline didn’t feel like answering.She had a poor impression of him, and she could see through his motives—he simply wanted to get close to her and attract her attention. Since she had no interest in such people, she hung up directly.But Carlson was persistent. After several more calls, Caroline finally answered reluctantly. She asked coldly, "Carlson, what do you want?"Carlson rushed to say, "Caroline, I heard you’ve been transferred to sales director?"Caroline asked in surprise, "How did you hear the news so quickly?"Carlson chuckled, "I just happen to have some friends working at your Delaney Group.
Chapter 58: A Chance Encounter
Alan thought to himself that he hadn’t paid much attention to Delaney Group recently. He couldn’t afford to be completely ignorant of the company’s operations, so he said, “Alright, wait for me. I’m coming up now.”Vivian replied, “Please go directly to your office. I’ll come there to report to you.”“Okay.” After hanging up, Alan entered the building, took the elevator, and headed straight for the top-floor chairman’s office.As he stepped out of the elevator and walked toward the office, a door behind him suddenly opened.Caroline had been planning to go to the restroom, but unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out, she saw a familiar back profile.She didn’t recognize it as Alan’s; instead, it reminded her of the god-tier tycoon from the short-video platform! Could this be the chairman she had been dying to meet?Caroline immediately became excited! The reason she had come to Delaney Group was to get close to this mysterious chairman.Her plan was to strive to marry him, which woul
Chapter 57: Absorbing Reiki
Burt immediately kowtowed deeply, his voice trembling with excitement. "Please act, Master Alan!"Alan nodded. "Prepare yellow paper, cinnabar, a brush, and ink for me."Moments later, Burt's secretary returned with the items and placed them in Alan's hands.Alan held the brush, dipped it lightly in cinnabar, and took a slow breath. Threads of Reiki within his body began to circulate, flowing along his meridians and attaching to the brush. With smooth, dragon-like strokes, he painted from the top to the bottom of the yellow paper.When the painting was complete, Alan gently blew on the paper before handing it to Burt."This talisman is specifically for dispelling malevolent auras. It embodies the most yang and righteous energy in the world.Wrap the Mojin Talisman with this paper and offer three sandalwood incense sticks daily. After thirty-six days—the number of celestial stems—the sinister qi on the human tooth will be completely eliminated.During these thirty-six days, no bloodshe
Chapter 56: Dispelling the Malevolent Aura
The slap left Jesse seeing stars, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He stared in horror, holding his face, completely stunned by the turn of events.He never could have imagined things would escalate like this. But making him kneel in public... This would shame the Brown family beyond repair—how could they ever maintain their authority in Pras City after this?Burt ground his teeth and snapped, "You idiot! Don’t you realize that if Master Alan hadn’t uncovered the truth about your 'Mojin Talisman,' not only would you have died, but the entire Brown family would have been dragged down with you!"His voice trembled with rage as he added, "No wonder the Brown family has been cursed with bad luck lately—business disasters striking one after another. It’s all because you brought this (calamity) into our lives!If your grandfather finds out, he’ll break your legs!"Terrified by his uncle’s severity, Jesse’s legs gave way, and he collapsed to his knees with a thud."Apologize to
Chapter 55: Taking Action
Jesse instantly flew into a rage. "Damn it! First you curse me, now my whole family?!"At this moment, he felt no gratitude toward Alan for saving his life—instead, he was furious and embarrassed.Seeing the man's ungratefulness, Alan said coolly, "I don’t have time for your nonsense. Good luck."As Alan turned to leave, Jesse shouted, "Grab him!"The four bodyguards behind him immediately closed in on Alan, while the other two lunged for Gilmore.Gilmore staggered backward in terror, but the two bodyguards pursued relentlessly.With nowhere to hide, Gilmore squeezed his eyes shut, bracing for the beating.Just as a fist was about to land on Gilmore, Alan stepped forward swiftly and smashed one bodyguard to the ground with a single punch. Then he rushed to Gilmore’s side and kicked another guard in the stomach.Ever since obtaining the True Yuan Bible, Alan felt he had gained countless combat memories in his mind, as if he had mastered martial arts long ago.Coupled with the surge of
