Yvonne's life was finally saved, thanks to Oskar. Yvonne felt much better after using the medicine that he had personally concocted.However, it seemed like she needed to rest for a while more in the hospital's ward after that.However, Harvey was still quite worried and personally sent her to the hospital. After he had arranged some staff to protect Yvonne, he also personally guarded her as he sat next to the bed. He would sometimes transfer some of his energy into Yvonne so she could rest even better and recover faster.Nothing else happened that night.The next day, Yvonne finally opened her eyes after being unconscious for almost ten hours when the sunlight streamed into the ward."You're awake?" asked Harvey as he held her hand with a gentle expression on his face. "You can't move in that condition, and you're on an IV drip. You also can't drink. But I know you'll feel uncomfortable with the dried lips, so I've thought of something."Then, Harvey got a cotton swab, dipped it
After chatting with Yvonne for a while, Harvey tucked her in after seeing she was getting a bit tired. After she was asleep, he got up and left.Tyson and George were already waiting outside the door for a long time.George stepped forward and handed a tablet to Harvey the moment he saw Harvey coming out from the ward. "We've finished the investigation. The assassin's code name is Number Seven, belonging to an assassin organization operating within the country. It's suspected that the organization has been a tool for one of the top-ranking families for many years. And we've gathered the information for this family as well."Harvey sat down and read the information on the tablet. "Someone from the Martial Arts Alliance?"George muttered, "Number Seven did have some connections with the Martial Arts alliance. No one else would be able to train such a skilled assassin within the country without the support of a training ground. The weapon used is the Royal Flush, which came from the
At Geraldton Hotel in the Second Ring, ten o'clock in the morning.There was a convention here regarding Wolsing's property industry.The property prices in Wolsing were among the highest in the nation.The net worth of any of the property companies here would far surpass the usual companies that went public. They could easily earn more profit than some public companies that worked hard throughout the year.That was why all the owners congregating in the property expo were wealthy and influential.Other than the leaders of the property industry, the leaders of the banking industry were also there today as their industry was interconnected with the property industry.Everything they chat about as they enjoy the coffee could significantly impact the market.Currently, there was still about half an hour before the expo started. All the leaders were chatting with each other; some had even managed to secure a contract or two.It was said that a contract worth a billion dollars had a
Mandy's expression was a little glum. While she was already in a place like this, she still gave others the feeling she was forcing a smile.However, it was pretty normal. After what happened, none of her property could be sold. She had also put a lot of effort into smoothing things out.The reason she joined the property expo was hoping that she could sell some of the company's properties. Otherwise, the Ninth-Branch Company would go bankrupt in two weeks."I didn't expect to bump into you again, Mandy. What a coincidence," Hector had abandoned everyone close to him the moment he saw Mandy with a smile on his face.His smile was so bright that he could blind others."Right, I was being serious about what I said through the call last night. Our company needs some properties lately so we want to buy 100 properties from you. We can negotiate about the price, but the key is that we need to sign the contract here today."That way, the transaction would be considered a result of the P
One minute later, Mandy and Hector both sat next to a coffee table in the study.Hector waved his hand and had his people prepare three copies of the same contract. With a smile, he said, "I've already prepared the contract, Mandy. Please go through it. If everything's fine, you can put down your signature. Once it's done, the contract between us will be enforceable, so you should give it a better look."Mandy perused it before saying, "The contract's fine, but I sense something's off with the payment. Why must we transfer the titles to your company after you have only paid the 30% deposit? It doesn't fully comply with the market regulations, right? When it comes to properties, the full payment is usually made before the title can be transferred.""Ah, that's a small matter," Hector smiled gently as he picked up and sipped a cup of coffee. "This is how it goes, Mandy. While I'm the scion of the Thompson family, I'm not the patriarch yet. That's why I also need to follow the rules re
"I am one of the Four Young Masters of Wolsing. The scion of the ten top families, the Thompson of Wolsing. And you claim I can't pay?" Hector plastered a fake smile on his face."Don't you think what you said is extremely laughable? Not to mention, do you think anyone could find out how much money my family has? How ludicrous!" Hector's eyes turned cold as he spoke.If it were not because Mandy was also there, he would have already killed Maya plenty of times since Mandy was around."I'm telling the truth, Ms. Mandy!" said Maya with a dark expression. "The Thompson of Wolsing wasn't as simple as they looked, and Mr. Hector himself was a man full of deadly schemes. If you really signed this contract, not only would we be unable to get the rest of the money, we might even get acquired by someone else because of a shortage of liquid capital."That's why we can't sign this contract, even if we can't sell the properties.""Ha…" Looking at how Maya tried to advise Mandy, Hector leaned
Hector told Mandy, "When my family buys 100 properties from you, from another angle, it's proving that none of your company's property has any problem. This also can negate the effects of what happened before."Hector gave a cold smile after that. "In other words, I can buy the property from whomever I want. Don't you understand why I chose to buy the properties from you? If you can't even differentiate between good and bad, I suppose this is the end of our cooperation. Goodbye!"Then, Hector stood up, pretending to leave."Give me a minute, Mr. Hector. My secretary is someone very straightforward and she can easily offend someone. I know you're very patient, so please don't take her too seriously," said Mandy.Then, she quickly gave Maya a look and said, "You better be able to produce some sort of evidence to prove that everything you said is real."Maya was slightly stunned. "Ms. Mandy, I…""Judging from your expression, I assume you have no evidence at all?" Mandy's expression
"Get her out of here!"Mandy could no longer be bothered to listen to Maya's blabber. With a wave of her hand, she signaled the security guards to take her away. Meanwhile, Hector simply observed what was happening before him with interest.When he saw how Mandy was on the verge of an outburst, he knew full well that what happened earlier and all the crises the Ninth-Branch Company faced had pushed her to the brink of collapse.A woman who had lost control was the easiest to manipulate.Hector suddenly thought the cheap coffee before him tasted much better than before.Before the security guards could get any closer, Maya suddenly stepped forward despite her disappointment and picked up the contract on the table. Then, she shredded it in half.Without a contract, there was nothing to sign.The expression on Hector's face immediately turned extremely dark despite his original intention of enjoying the show.He wanted to stop it, but he was already too late.A shredded contrac
