At Legacy Hospital, Aldus was sent to the emergency room.The doctor had also dressed Austin's and Raquel's wounds.Then, Austin and Raquel sat outside the emergency room.Raquel was extremely worried, and her expression betrayed her feelings.Meanwhile, Austin closed his eyes as he sat there, his left hand gently fiddling with the gauze wrapped around his right fingers.After a half-hour wait, Aldus was finally brought out.Raquel was relieved when she saw that, and she let out a long sigh.Austin also stopped fiddling with the gauze as he opened his eyes.After settling Aldus in the ward, Austin left some instructions before turning around and leaving.Throughout the process, he never once asked about the details at the construction site."I'm fine. Please tell sir everything." Smiling, Aldus comforted the startled Raquel.He knew that Raquel was worried that Austin might fire her because of what happened that day.With Raquel's current situation, she couldn't afford to l
Rubbing his nose, Austin busied himself with work.Since Reginald had asked to meet him, of course, he would be there. His suit was ruined because of the fight, so he had to ask Reginald to compensate for it.As for the other aspects, he wasn't worried about them.Even though Dominion was at the height of its power right now, there was indeed a slight gap between Dominion and Regal Properties.However, it was only a matter of time before Dominion surpassed Regal.If Austin was truly worried about it, he wouldn't have taken action right away at the construction site of Horizon Haven.As for the scheme tonight, Austin had already made preparations to deal with Reginald's tactics.If someone dared to mess with his people, he would destroy them no matter who they were!Not long after that, Jacob's call came in.Austin smiled as he answered the call."Do you need help, Austin?"As soon as the call went through, Jacob skipped the formalities and went straight to the point."You h
Night had fallen, and the city lights were turning on.By the time Austin hurried to Collis Hotel, the parking lot was already filled with luxury cars.With guidance from the waiter, Austin arrived at Vista Room.Two young and burly men in suits and sunglasses stood watch at the entrance of Vista Room.When they saw Austin, they immediately turned around and opened the door to the room.Piano music reached Austin's ears.Rubbing his nose, Austin smiled and said, "The Black Mass Sonata?"The spacious Vista Room felt like another world, for there was a flowing fountain amid rockery. Mist permeated the room.There was even the faint scent of sandalwood in the air.The atmosphere was elegant and exotic.In front of the large table, a bald middle-aged man in a suit and sunglasses was calmly sitting on the main seat.Two young men in the same outfits were standing behind him.Austin looked at the bald middle-aged man. Then, he suddenly laughed. "Mr. Pearson, don't you think that
Reginald only managed to come this far because of his cruel and merciless methods.He had used countless shady tactics in all those years of his constant fights with Jacob.At least to Reginald, Jacob was the only person who could compete with him in the real estate industry of this city!But this time, Austin had popped out from nowhere and caused such a ruckus at his construction site.This was a direct confrontation!Even Jacob wouldn't dare to do that!Austin suddenly raised his right hand, stopping Reginald."Mr. Pearson, I'm sorry for breaking your cousin's leg, but the blood from him and your subordinates soiled my suit. Shouldn't you compensate me for that first?"His voice was calm as if he truly cared about that suit.Reginald was a little stunned.Austin was being too arrogant!After a short pause, Reginald suddenly laughed.Then, he lifted his hands and clapped thrice.In an instant, the young men standing behind Reginald and at the entrance gathered around Aus
"I-I'll pay… Stop. Just stop it…"Reginald was trembling all over, and he was drenched in sweat as he roared in pain.He was seriously scared now.He was terrified at Austin's cruelty and decisiveness.He had no doubts that if he kept being stubborn, Austin might do something even more outrageous.Austin was crazy!"This wouldn't have happened if you had compensated me sooner." Austin sneered.Then, he removed the knife from Reginald's thigh.Reginald screamed in distress, and his pained cries were heard. "W-Why the hell did you take it out?""Well, I'll just put it back in."Reginald's body turned stiff as he stared dumbfoundedly at the small knife, which had returned to its previous place in his thigh.The fighters were all stunned at the sight.This was inhumane!Austin calmly wiped his bloody hands on Reginald's suit.Then, he said calmly, "Mr. Pearson, I'm not here just to get compensation for my suit. I also have something else to tell you. Raquel is under me, so ke
Someone kicked open the door to Vista Room.In an instant, everyone turned their attention to the entrance.Austin was surprised to find that the intruder was none other than Wolf!"Mr. Campbell!"Wolf's expression shifted when he saw the situation in Vista Room. However, instead of stepping forward, he shouted at Reginald."Reginald, Jacob wants me to relay a message. You'll die if you overestimate yourself!"Reginald felt like he had been struck by thunder. The fierce look on his face instantly turned into fear.Austin's words just now had already caused him to waver.Now, Wolf's appearance and words were like cold water splashing onto his fire of rage. His anger was completely gone.He thought, "Damn it… Did I really offend the wrong person this time?"Just when Reginald was hesitating, Austin suddenly reached up and slapped the barrel away from his head. Sneering, he said, "I'm walking out of this door right now. If you want to shoot, go ahead!"With that, he walked outs
In just one day, Austin had gone through a roller coaster of events.No matter how strong Austin was, he was tired as well.He soon fell asleep in Wolf's car.When the car arrived at Heavensgate villa, Wolf woke Austin up.Austin went home.Dahlia was watching TV in the living room. When she saw Austin coming back, she walked up to him.Taking the jacket from Austin, she complained, "You're working too hard every single day. Can't you be a little nicer to yourself?""I was just busy at work." Smiling, Austin rubbed his tummy. "Mom, are there leftovers from the dinner Raquel made for you? I haven't had dinner.""No, but I can make some tomato pasta for you."Dahlia smiled as she said.Austin didn't stop her. Since young, his favorite food was the tomato pasta his mother made.Austin hadn't eaten it in a long time, not ever since Dahlia fell ill.Making tomato pasta wasn't too difficult, so it wouldn't worsen Dahlia's current condition.Still, Austin rolled up his sleeves an
Derek couldn't bear it any longer. He said in a low voice, "Have you had enough of crying? I tried to stop you, but you refused to listen to me. You just had to make a fuss!"Urma slapped Derek straight away."You useless jerk! I was so ashamed and suffered so much today, but you didn't even speak up for me!"Faced with Urma's reprimands, Derek could only sigh. He didn't dare to talk back.The more Derek backed off, the more Urma wanted to vent her anger.Just then, Harvey came back. His expression instantly shifted when he saw Urma crying."What happened, Mom?"When Urma saw Harvey, she sobbed even louder."Oh, Harv, you're finally back. Your dad and I were bullied…"Harvey felt like he was struck by lightning.In an instant, he flew into a rage. "Who? Who did it? I'll talk to them!"Urma felt more assured when she saw Harvey's reaction.Wailing loudly, she said, "Your dad and I went to Heavensgate Residence today…""Austin? That bastard! Mom, I'll talk to him right now!"
