Craig grinned. 'Wow! It seems like you're busy moving. It's only been a while since you moved here, and you're moving again? Are you trying to avoid me? Don't you even want your store anymore?'He was mistaken to think Elly was running away from him.Elly looked at him and retorted, "Stop thinking so highly of yourself."The two kids were thrilled to see Craig, having not seen him for a long time. Throughout this period, Elly had been telling them that Craig was working far away, and they had been eagerly waiting for his return."Daddy!" Both kids looked at Craig eagerly. "Why don't you dress as nicely as before? When can we go back to our big house?"Nobody could keep a secret forever. Craig rubbed the kids' heads and said, "We're not going back now. When I earn a lot of money, we'll buy an even bigger house, okay?""Hurray!" Both of them cheered and clapped their hands. "Remember to work hard and make lots of money. Mom said we'll move to Uncle Andy's house first.""Yeah, Dadd

"Where's justice? Can she ignore the law and hit someone just because she's the CEO of the Innova Group?"As soon as he finished shouting, a man approached and snatched the phone from his hand, formatted it, and returned it to Craig.After Vince returned the phone, he looked at Craig and asked, "Who can prove that Ms. Williams assaulted you?"Craig froze, not knowing where Vince came from. He noticed the nearby surveillance cameras and smirked, "Do you think formatting my phone will solve everything? There are cameras everywhere!"Craig called the police, and soon, two uniformed officers arrived.Craig hurriedly approached them and said, "Sirs! The CEO of the Innova Group assaulted me! You've got to help me!"The police officer glanced at Craig and frowned. "It's you again?!"Craig chuckled. "No matter who it is, assault is a crime, especially when it's the CEO of the Innova Group doing it!"The officer asked, "Where are you injured?"Craig felt his chest and realized nothing

The news reached even the Montgomerys. With their influence, getting information seemed likely. The involvement of two renowned holistic physicians and the prominent Hernandezes made the matter more significant.Grace arrived to pick them up. She handed her phone to Eric in the car. "This is the message I received this morning. Take a look."Eric examined a simple text message.[This is a conspiracy!]Frowning, Eric sought clarification.Grace explained, "The sender previously informed me about the Hernandezes' scheme, making me believe this message. It suggests that Astrid's accusation of Javier is part of a conspiracy, and the sender is aware of it!"Eric's frown deepened.'A conspiracy? It must be a plot by the Hernandezes against me. But what kind of scheme could they have?' Eric pondered, unable to discern their plan.Even Grace was puzzled."All we can say is, if it's a conspiracy, they must be up to no good," Grace remarked. "But I have a way to handle it. Javier likes

Leaning forward with a hint of manic in his eyes, Astrid looked at Eric and asked, "Eric, tell me honestly. How much of the acupoint techniques from the manual have you mastered?"'He had been trying his best to master the Ephemeral Vitality Technique during his days in prison. Eventually, he found out that he could not perform the technique at all. Eric looked at him and said coldly, "I've mastered them all."Astrid was dejected. Eric was only exposed to holistic medicine for a short amount of time, yet he had already mastered the manual. Perhaps his talent truly surpassed him by far. Without wasting time, Eric asked, "How do you plan to testify against Javier?"That was what Eric cared about. He did not care about Astrid's current state at all. Astrid sighed softly. "In fact, Javier asked me to kill not only my senior but also others."This revelation hit Eric like a bolt. He did not expect Javier to be involved in other murder cases. If Astrid was really going to testify a

Grace felt a sense of surprise. She possessed a deep understanding of the top-tier families in King City. Even considering a margin of error in her assessments, it wouldn't be too far off.If Eric could single-handedly take on any of these families, did that mean he had the strength to compete with or even surpass the Hernandezees?In terms of strength, the Hernandezes were considered a first-class family, while families like the Watsons were top-tier. Dealing with the Hernandezes seemed as easy as a piece of cake for Eric.James continued. "Eric has improved greatly. Aside from other factors, just his identity as a holistic physician makes the major families want to be on good terms with him. Not to mention, he has mastered the Ephemeral Vitality Technique, enabling him to help many in need."Gaining three more days meant infinite possibilities for someone like James, even though they were facing inevitable danger. Eric just needed to ask, and many would be willing to help him fig

After the storm subsided, the balance of power among the major families was destined to shift, all thanks to one individual.-Upon returning home, Eric and Sylvia met Felicia, who asked, "Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, what would you like for lunch?"It had been a while since their last visit to King City."Sylvia and I are heading to my mom's place for lunch, so there is no need to prepare for us," Eric replied."Ah, I see..." Felicia said with a hint of disappointment.Noticing her reaction, Eric asked, "But we'll definitely have our lunch here tomorrow. Isn't it almost summer vacation? Why don't you invite your grandson and husband to King City for a visit?"After all, staying alone in such a spacious villa must be lonely for Felicia."Alright!" Felicia agreed, "I'll call them once my grandson finishes his final exams!"Eric smiled, treating Felicia like family. Even during meals, he would invite her to join them. While he could handle tasks like cleaning and meal preparation hims

Although Eric downplayed it, Alexander was astonished. He hadn't anticipated Eric having faced off against Ruth, and what astonished him even more was Eric's victory over her.Despite an invitation from the head of the McClains, Eric adamantly declined.Alexander cleared his throat and asked, "Eric, do you know the standing of the McClains in King City?""Yes," Eric replied. "I've heard people claim they are a top-tier family, much like the Watsons. They surpass even the Montgomerys and Hernandezes in strength."Alexander was at a loss of words. It seemed Eric was privy to everything, likely with his reasons for refusing the invitation. Respecting this, Alexander chose not to press further.Meanwhile, Sylvia observed a growing interest from women in Eric. First Jessica and now Ruth, each with a more formidable background than the last.Eric's phone interrupted the silence once again. Noticing it was another call from King City, he frowned and picked up.A voice chuckled through

It was not known Eric and Ruth were acquainted.Eric and Sylvia arrived at the luxurious McClain residence. Given Ruth's status in the military, the McClain family was nearly impervious to harm, and few dared to provoke them. Those who did faced unbearable consequences.The driver opened the car door for Eric and Sylvia. Eric furrowed his brow as they stepped out and threw a sudden punch to his side.A tall, burly man over two meters tall was sent flying. That single punch could have killed a cow!"Is this how the McClain family treats their guests?" Eric said coldly as he stepped forward.The burly man didn't back down, charging at Eric. A fierce battle erupted right after they left the car. Sylvia thought it might be a trap set by the McClain family!Eric sneered, side-stepped to dodge the man, and lifted his hand to strike his neck. With a little force, the man lost his balance and fell with a loud thud. However, another person attacked Eric after he defeated the burly man."
