“But, he…”Before Daniel could utter another word, Michelle, who was fiery-tempered, kicked him again and said, “Get lost, you are fired!”“Argh!”Daniel was petrified and his face turned as white as a sheet.It took him years and consistent effort to get to the manager position of Splendor Center, but all it took was a minor misunderstanding to unravel all his hard work.At this moment, he glared at Wilson with a strong urge to strangle his nephew.Wilson was shocked. Mona, Sam and the rest of the crowd were astonished as well.Beatrice could not believe it herself. How did that trash get involved with Michelle and even became her VIP? It was impossible!‘Could it be that this trash cheated on Sis, and courted Michelle?’That could be the only plausible explanation.Daniel was quickly escorted out by the security guards under Michelle’s orders.She then glanced at Wilson and gave him a hard smack across the face. “Get on your knees and apologize to Mr. Rockefeller.”Fright

“Damn, what’s the situation now? Did she bring me here so that she could throw herself at me?” As Alex put all his attention to the Australian lobsters and did not notice Michelle’s face in agony, he was shocked to find her soft and warm body in his arms at the moment.More importantly, what should he do with a lady who came throwing herself at him?‘You are a sneaky fellow, Keith Yowell! Setting me up like this!’Alex gritted his teeth, and thought maybe he should…At this moment, Michelle groaned in pain again. While holding her chest, she spat out a mouthful of blood suddenly.What?Alex was shocked, as the throw up was almost spat on his face!“Hey, Michelle! Michelle!”Only then did Alex realize he was wrong, Michelle did not come onto him. Instead, she collapsed into his arms because of the sudden onset of her injuries, she could not stand firmly.“Damn, you should have told me earlier! You made me worry for nothing!”Alex muttered under his breath but kept his hands

At this moment, Michelle’s voice interrupted Alex’s concentration. “Alex, do you want the tuber fleeceflower?”That was because the tuber fleeceflower was the auction item that was currently displayed on the screen in the VIP room.Alex glanced at the screen and casually hummed in agreement.At this moment, the current price had reached seven million dollars, coincidentally it was bidded by Pepper.She seemed convinced in obtaining it.However, Michelle immediately put forward a price of ten million dollars.The auctioneer called, “VIP room No. 1 has bidded ten million dollars. Is there any bidder with a call higher than ten million dollars?”Most of the attendees knew that the little devil from the Yowell family and the Australian lobster guy were the occupants of VIP Room No. 1. Some people who wanted to contest the bid decided not to do it as they did not want to provoke the Yowell family. Pepper frowned and shouted again, “Eleven million dollars!”“Fifteen million dollars

“They are leaving early!”Alex’s eyes flashed as stood up and wanted to go after them instinctively.However, he was pulled back by Michelle. “Where are you going? The auction items will be delivered soon, I want you to check them out with me.”“Can’t you do it yourself?”“I am not a connoisseur of medicinal herbs. Plus, those old guys who put up the items for auction this time are sly as a fox. Who knows if they decide to cheat us with a fake imitation. These herbs are needed to save my grandfather, so I have to be extra careful.”Alex thought for a while and then nodded .With a Japanese fighter accompanying Pepper, he was unsure if he could capture her easily. Plus, Waltz already had surveillance set up on Pepper, he could always do it in the future.As it turned out, Michelle worried too much. After all, that was an extravagant hotel owned by the Yowells. Who would dare to cheat Michelle, who bidded those medicinal herbs at high price?Half an hour later, the two of them l

“You!” Michelle was so angry she could not say a thing.However, at the moment, the rear of the car was hit.“What happened? Did you hit someone? Jerk, I told you to focus on your driving! Oh great!” Michelle called out. Before she could make sense of what happened, another large car, driven against the traffic, headed for their car at full speed.The headlamps were so bright that one could hardly open his eyes.“Ah!” Michelle instinctively screamed.If being hit head-on with the car, even an M8 could not withstand the impact force and it might be squashed like a meatloaf.At this moment, Alex slammed his foot on the throttle and managed to dodge the oncoming car with a sharp left swerve. The large car scratched the rear of the M8 before crashing into the black Honda, which followed right behind.Bang!The situation was alarming.Without hesitation, Alex once again stepped on the throttle and sped away.Returning to her senses, Michelle said, “It was an accident, your car has

What would one feel when a car crashed into a river from a large bridge at a height of thirty meters?Anyway, it was a magnificent sight.A loud noise sounded with a boom, and the splashed water went up to a height of ten meters. It was no different from crashing into a concrete surface.The airbags were instantly deployed. Michelle fainted in a state of extreme fear.On the large bridge, a few passing cars stopped to check out what happened with a few people contacting the police as well. A woman, who wore a mask and a cap, came off from one of the dump trucks.She was Pepper Kimmich.Walking toward the edge of the bridge, she took a few glances down into the waters below before hurriedly speaking into her dedicated headset to give her orders, “Stand by the river in case they try to escape. Divers, prepare to get the items. The rest on the ground, retreat and watch for cover. The authorities will be here soon.”After firing off a few orders in quick succession, she left in

As the phone was hung up, Baldy yelled, “You are going to accompany the old man? Who does he think he is, why don't we just kill him?”“Not yet, he is still useful to us,” said Pepper.…Splash!On the north side of the East River, Alex crawled out of the water, with Michelle in his arms, onto the sandy banks.He immediately did cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Michelle, followed by mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and stimulation of the electric Chi needle. In less than a half-minute, she coughed up the river water and woke up.“I am still alive?”“Just barely.” Alex struggled to sit down on the ground.What happened earlier was really treacherous.The deployed airbags were a hindrance to his escape. Moreover, after the impact of the collision earlier, the front car was deformed and Michelle’s legs were wedged in the car.After exerting tremendous effort, he managed to free her from the car, only to be swept away by the strong currents.Fortunately, they were both alive.Miche

The next day, two cars arrived at Maple Villa’s entrance before 7 a.m. Inside the front car, a luxurious Porsche, was Spark, Carol, Olivia, and Mariah. Spark’s arm hadn’t completely healed yet; hence Carol was the one who drove. Following them was a box truck, within it, a coffin they had bought last night.Bursting with excitement and joy last night, Spark could barely get any sleep at all. The lack of sleep had caused him to have a pair of bloodshot eyes.Nonetheless, he still seemed pretty energized.He just couldn’t sleep, thinking about Alex’s death. Now, he was sending a coffin to his house, and he would be able to insult Brittany harshly as well. It was all so exciting, more exciting than sleeping with any woman...That, however, reminded him about something unfortunate. After previously unable to get it on with a model, Spark felt as if he was experiencing a mental block.Lately, he hadn’t been able to get a physical reaction at all.The other two women sitting in the b
