"Execution?" Gabriel's brow furrowed in disbelief. "The investigation isn't even complete, and you're already jumping to conclusions. Isn't that over the top?"

Ms. Foster scoffed, "Hmph! For the Patel family's empire, no measure is too extreme!"

Gabriel shot back, "And what makes you so certain I'm the traitor?"

Ms. Foster was imperious, "I don't need to be sure. If I say you are, then you are!"

This baseless accusation chilled Gabriel's demeanor.

    Elijah, known to everyone as "Sting Lizard" due to the phonetic similarity of his name, had long since gotten used to the teasing nickname.Feeling a bit on edge, Elijah had accepted the same amount of gold bars from Harold and knew he had to see this through.After a moment of thought, he realized his only option was to butter up Andrew Jones. “Mr. Jones, Gabriel is just Emily Patel’s boy toy. He doesn’t have any real connections. With your standing, he’s not even worth a second thought.”“Hmph! It better be that way!” Andrew Jones grumbled, his irritation barely concealed. He instructed Dave, “Go tell Emily Patel that our station didn’t arrest the wrong person.”After pocketing Harold's gold bars, he knew he had to deliver. “No matter what, just muddle through for now,” he thought.But as soon as Dave left, Andrew Jones’s phone suddenly rang.“Mr. Robinson?” Seei

    Upon hearing this, Tyler's face turned sour, but just as he was about to speak, the brunette planted a kiss on his cheek. "Hey, Tyler, my birthday's just two days away! Why not swing by for some birthday noodles at my place? It's the perfect time to propose to my parents and set a date for our wedding.""What? Getting married so soon?" Tyler's eyes nearly popped out of his head, his face drained of color.Tyler had his sights set on marrying Evelyn; this brunette was merely a side distraction, a means to leverage her connections.She was just a hospital doctor, but her dad's got some serious clout in the police force.The brunette studied him closely. "What’s the matter? Chicken?"Tyler hesitated for a moment, then quickly grinned. "Your dad's legendary. Who wouldn't be shaking in their boots?""Of course, for you, my darling, I'd face a hurricane or walk through flames!""Ha, your sweet talk is something else. So, it's settled then!"Wi

    Having weathered the storms of the business world for years, she had naturally heard the tales of Mr. Jones. They said he was a mole, ruthlessly ambitious, and merciless in his methods. Anyone unfortunate enough to fall into his hands, guilty or not, would never have a good outcome. "This spells trouble!"Unlike Evelyn, Gabriel remained unfazed, speaking with a calm demeanor, "Ah, Mr. Jones, the infamous legend himself.""Since you know about me, you should also know my methods. So, I advise you to cooperate obediently. That way, you might just have a chance to walk out of here in one piece!" Mr. Jones lit a Zhonghua cigarette, taking a deep drag.Gabriel stared at him, puzzled, "Mr. Jones, how exactly do you want us to cooperate?""You've stolen someone's valuable items, which should land you in prison. But now, I'm giving you a chance. If you can reach a settlement with the owner, I might let this slide."Gabriel's lips curled into a smirk, "Mr. Jones, you

    Evelyn replied urgently, "I'm just his friend!""Hmph! You look just as suspicious. For all I know, you're in on this with him. Take her too!" The deputy chief waved his hand, and two officers stepped forward, cuffing Evelyn.The unexpected twist left everyone frozen in shock.Gabriel frowned and said, "Officer, she's got nothing to do with this. It's all on me."Claire rushed forward, pleading, "Yes, yes! It's Gabriel who's the troublemaker, not my daughter! If you need to arrest someone, arrest him. My daughter is innocent!"Dominic was in a panic, "Officer, my sister's done nothing wrong. You can't punish the innocent!""We'll sort out who's innocent after the investigation. Take them away!" The deputy chief ordered, and the two were promptly escorted to the police car."Wait!"Tyler stepped forward, saying assertively, "I'm Mayor Nelson's son. Cut me some slack and let my girlfriend go.""Mayor Nelson's son?" The deputy chief scrutini

    Harold's smile was as fake as a three-dollar bill. "And if it gets out? Who would believe it anyway?"The formula for the Ginseng Essence Pill was worth a fortune. If he could get his hands on it, he could control the entire Lane family!Gabriel, barely keeping his fury in check, spoke with a deceptive calmness, "Mr. Lane, out of respect for Ms. Patel, I don't want to make this ugly. So, it's best if you hand over those two items now."Harold's expression darkened as he retorted, "And what if I refuse?"Gabriel, his patience wearing thin, shot back bluntly, "Then don't blame me for taking them by force."Harold let out a mocking laugh, "Take them? If you can snatch this box from me, I'll give it to you for free!"Having honed his martial arts skills since childhood, Harold had ascended to the third level of the Celestial Realm, the zenith of inner strength. How could a mere youngster dare to snatch food from the tiger's mouth?"Alright then! You as

    Just as he was about to order retaliation, Harold suddenly spoke up, "Gabriel, what's happening here? Did my guys step out of line?"Gabriel gave a casual smile, "Oh, it's just a small mix-up. Didn't know they were your folks, Uncle East."Seeing the two chatting and laughing, Elijah's jaw dropped, "What? Uncle East?"When Harold showed up, everyone figured Gabriel was a goner.No one saw it coming when the two met and, instead of clashing, started chatting like old pals. This left Elijah and his group utterly shocked.Even Evelyn's family was left speechless."No way! Does this guy actually know Harold?""Holy cow, who is this dude? How can he be so chummy with Harold?"The crowd whispered among themselves, utterly astonished.Elijah gulped, panic creeping in, "Harold, do you know him?"Harold's expression turned cold as he sternly rebuked, "This is Brother Gabriel, a friend of Ms. Patel. Have you lost your mind, offending him?"
