Chapter 559 Alone Together (Part 2)
Alan nodded and said, Sure.Lucia’s face lit up with delight. Wonderful! I know a spot that’s incredibly quiet, with hardly anyone around. We can walk along the beach and feel the breeze on our faces.With that, Lucia steered the car onto a side road.After driving a kilometer or two, she pulled over to the curb and said to Alan, There’s a path down from here. Let’s get out here.Alan nodded, pushed open the car door and stepped out.The weather had grown increasingly cold, yet it did not bother him in the least.Lucia was wrapped in a fluffy fur coat, beneath which she still wore the elegant and noble evening gown from the birthday banquet, and she clutched a red Hermès handbag in her hand.A cold gust of wind blew, sending her flowing long hair fluttering in the wind. A few strands of black hair brushed against her cheeks, lending her an air of exquisite charm.There was not a soul or a car in sight, front or back. Lucia faced the wind, took a deep breath, and smiled. I used to love
Chapter 558 Alone Together (Part 1)
Because she thought, if she had saved the entire galaxy in her past life, then Mia, Master Alan’s wife, must have saved the whole universe in hers.Vincent’s heart was filled with emotion at Alan’s words. This was the brother he had grown up with—even after doing him such a great favor, he did not make Vincent feel indebted in the slightest, but instead attributed it all to their past lives.Though he had lived a life of poverty for more than twenty years, having such a capable brother made all those years of hardship worthwhile.At that moment, Alan checked the time and said to Vincent, Vincent, Mr. Blair, I still have business to attend to tonight. So you drive Mr. Blair back first. When we get the chance in the future, I’ll go to Persian Harbor or you come to Plass City, and we brothers will catch up then.At this, Blair quickly waved his hand and said, Master Alan, I have no other business tonight! You and Vincent go on with your catch-up—don’t mind me at all!Alan smiled softly a
Chapter 557 Reuniting with a Good Brother
Now that Lucia had become the patriarch of the Green family, the birthday banquet felt even more grand and spectacular.As the banquet drew to a close, the Green family’s servants wheeled out a huge birthday cake.Twenty-six candles were stuck all over the cake. The moment the lights in the hall went out, Lucia stood alone before the candles. The flickering candlelight cast a glow on her exquisite face, making her indescribably beautiful.Lucia folded her hands in front of her chest, closed her eyes, and silently made a wish.Then she opened her eyes and looked at Alan with an affectionate gaze.At this moment, she thought Alan was the god of her heart.Alan did not notice the way Lucia was looking at him.Since she was in the dark when the lights went out, he took advantage of his extraordinary eyesight to quietly observe Clyde and Edwin, father and son.The instant the lights went out, the father and son, who had been feigning calm and forcing smiles all along, had their expressions
Chapter 556 Lucia Assumes the Patriarchal Throne (Part 2)
As soon as the Green family patriarch spoke these words, those who had originally opposed Lucia inheriting the patriarchal throne all wisely fell silent.They had come to a realization: since neither they nor their children had any chance of taking the patriarch’s seat, they would certainly prefer it to be passed to someone far more capable.For the more capable the patriarch, the more money everyone would get to share.Edwin was decent enough in his own right, but when it came to actual ability, he was far inferior to Lucia.Despite her youth, Lucia could oversee and manage every aspect of the Green family’s business with great competence.She had made the antique trade a roaring success under her stewardship, and breathed new life into the foreign trade business as well.It could be said that in terms of capability, Lucia outshone all the other descendants of the Green family—even her uncles.Honestly, everyone was truly convinced that she was the right person to inherit the family.
Chapter 555 Lucia Assumes the Patriarchal Throne (Part 1)
As her grandfather, who’d doted on her and watched her grow up, how could he not wish for a perfect future for her?In every way, Jace paled in comparison to Alan—by a mile.Edwin’s mood was utterly miserable at that moment.He had never imagined his grandfather would risk offending Jace just to curry favor with Alan.Edwin was no fool. He could see clearly why the old man held Alan in such high regard: he had become somewhat addicted to the Rejuvenation Elixirs.In other words, the old man had turned down the olive branch extended by Jace and the Devinsire family to fawn over Alan. This proved that, in his eyes, the family’s wealth no longer mattered—all he cared about was how many more years he could live.Otherwise, he would never have abandoned the Devinsire family for Alan.This filled Edwin with a deep-seated resentment.First and foremost, if the old man turned his back on the Devinsire family, the Green family would lose a golden chance to rise to great heights.Secondly, if t
Chapter 554 Swallowing the Necklace (Part 2)
Jace immediately pulled out his phone and called the pilot of his family’s private jet. Captain Chen, where are you right now?Jace had only flown in from Neon City on his father’s private jet that afternoon. He had originally planned to stay in Plass City for a few days, so the pilot was getting ready to fly the jet back that evening—after all, his father used the plane for the majority of the time.Jace’s only thought was that if the plane hadn’t left for Neon City yet, he would rush back on it at once.He would not let a stupid ruby necklace in his stomach cost him his life, no matter what.At that moment, the pilot of Jace’s family private jet was at Plass City Airport, waiting in line for takeoff.Answering Jace’s call, he said at once, Young Master, I’m in the takeoff queue right now, getting ready to fly back to Neon City.Jace blurted out, Apply to the tower for a delayed takeoff immediately, then taxi the plane back to the business jet tarmac and wait for me. I’m heading back
