Evelyn's expression shifted as she asked anxiously, "What kind of trouble?""We're facing cash flow issues. Several business partners haven't paid what they owe, which has left the company running at a deficit. Luckily, you still have 120 million dollars in reserve funds, which coul

Edward didn't expect that Gabriel was actually a martial arts expert. His bodyguards were no ordinary men, and being able to send someone flying with a single palm strike clearly demonstrated serious internal martial arts skills."Punk! You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!" Just as Edward was preparing to teach Gabriel a lesson himself, Emily's luxury car suddenly arrived."What's happening?" Emily walked in gracefully, her expression cool and aloof, carrying an invisible queen-like authority.Even without fully understanding the situation, she immediately stood beside Gabriel.Edward wore a malicious expression and preemptively complained, "Emily! This kid is incredibly arrogant. Not only did he refuse to treat me, but he even dared to attack my people. Tell me, how should we handle this?"Emily responded just as firmly, "Mr. Cole, if your people hadn't provoked him first, I believe Gabriel wouldn't have taken action. Your people getting

At Celestial Estates, around noon, Edward turned to Emily. "Emily, we had a bet before, and now three days have passed. I'm still safe and sound. Aren't you supposed to fulfill your promise?" He hesitated before finally bringing up the matter."Mr. Cole, there's no need to rush. Isn't there still half a day left?" Emily replied calmly.Edward took a sip of coffee and smiled. "Emily, you don't actually believe that little con artist, do you?"He found it somewhat amusing. "I've practiced martial arts for years. I know my body better than anyone. Look at me now—do I look sick?"Emily smiled slightly but insisted, "I don't know if you look sick, but I trust Gabriel's judgment.""Well, I have no idea what kind of spell that little con artist cast on you to make you trust him so much," Edward said, puzzled and somewhat displeased."Who knows? Maybe it's just fate," Emily thought of Gabriel and couldn't help curling her lips. "In any case, there's still

"Sure, I'm leaving right away!" Andrew nodded frantically and bolted in panic, not even daring to stop and pick up his fallen shoe.Cedric turned to Evelyn with an apologetic smile. "Ms. Brown, I sincerely apologize. It's my fault for not managing my employees properly. He offended you, and I promise I won't make the same mistake."Being a sharp individual, Cedric knew Gabriel always preferred to keep a low profile, so he tactfully refrained from exposing anything further.Evelyn responded with a faint smile. "Mr. King, your impartiality and sense of justice are truly admirable.""You're too kind, Ms. Brown. I was just doing what I should," Cedric replied nervously."Hmph! At least you know your place!" At that moment, Tyler spoke up, his expression cold. "If you had laid a finger on Evelyn today, I wouldn't have let you off."Cedric kept his apologetic smile in place. "I wouldn't dare. I'll never do something like that."Though Cedric had no idea
Chapter 54
Given Evelyn's status, Cedric might have been arrogant, but even he wouldn't dare lay a finger on her.Gabriel, on the other hand, was different. He had no status, no background. If he offended Cedric, he'd either end up dead or crippled."Leave? Where to?" Gabriel asked."Mr. King is here. Even if God himself showed up today, He couldn't save you. Just wait for your death!" Andrew let out a cold laugh before scurrying off to greet Cedric."Mr. King! You're finally here! Look at what they did to my face!" Andrew exclaimed.Cedric cast him a sideways glance. "What happened?""A woman came in to apply for a loan. I checked her credit. It was terrible. So I rejected her. But this shameless woman tried to seduce me and even conspired with some men to set me up. When I refused, they beat me up! They have no respect for the law or for you!" Andrew immediately twisted the story to suit himself.Cedric's expression turned hostile as he spoke arrogantly, "R

As soon as the blow landed, Andrew's teeth flew out."Huh?" Everyone froze, stunned as they watched Andrew collapse to the ground.No one had expected Gabriel to be bold enough to slap Andrew in front of so many people.After all, Andrew was the manager of Calonia Bank's North Branch, wealthy, powerful, and well-connected. Offending someone like him was asking for trouble."How... How dare you hit me?" Andrew's face twisted in fury as he stared at the two teeth lying in his hand.Gabriel remained calm. "So what if I hit you? Should I have waited for a more convenient time?""Asshole! Do you even know who's backing me? It's the King family!" Andrew roared, pulling out his phone. "You've got a death wish!"As Andrew dialed for backup, Evelyn frowned slightly and made a call of her own.Within half an hour, Claire arrived at the scene with a group of people.Walking beside her was a handsome man in a tailored designer suit. His polished deme

Several business partners haven't paid what they owe, which has left the company running at a deficit. Luckily, you still have 120 million dollars in reserve funds, which could help us weather this storm," Juliana explained, her tone serious."Reserve funds?" Evelyn's face darkened at the mention of it. "That money should be gone by now, shouldn't it?""Gone? What do you mean, Ms. Brown?" Juliana was taken aback."I trusted the wrong person. Griffin deceived me." Evelyn didn't hold back and briefly recounted what had happened.The next second, Juliana's tone turned furious. "He is such a scumbag! We trusted him so much, and he dared to scam us? We
