The Redmont Residence would be covered with dark clouds for two days in a row.Everyone inside the house of the richest family in Basin City was still extremely frightened.It almost seemed as if a storm was coming.Every single one of the Redmonts could hear the increasingly violent shouts coming from within Morgan's room.They knew better than anyone else that the birthday banquet had gone terribly wrong.Inside the dark and gloomy room, veins could be seen popping around Morgan's bloodshot eyes. "Why can't we get in contact with Dorothy? Why?"Amadeus was kneeling on the floor. He was so frightened that he felt as if he was about to fall unconscious. "Please calm down, Dad. We need to remain calm, especially during such a crucial time!""Calm down? You're telling me to calm down?" Morgan picked up an antique pot and smashed it onto the ground. "Why don't you tell me what we can do instead of calming down?"Amadeus was so terrified that he could no longer reply.Austin had t

Austin was confused as he stared at Skylar.He wondered if he was staring at a man or a woman.Skylar had a thin figure, dewy skin, and even a childish yet handsome face.A neat suit paired with side bangs gave Skylar a very neutral look as well.Perhaps even due to the angle, Austin could not tell whether or not Skylar had an Adam's apple.But he also felt that it would be rude to ask for Skylar's gender.The next moment, a magnetic voice came out of Skylar's mouth. "You've been staring at me, Mr. Campbell."Austin felt rather relieved after realizing that Skylar was unmistakably a man.He was rather speechless while he reckoned that Skylar's alluring appearance and voice must've made him quite the ladies' man.Austin laughed and asked, "Anything I can help you with, Mr. Skylar Reed?""I'd like for us to work together," replied Skylar as he stared straight at Austin. "The Reed family is willing to help you defeat the Redmonts. But in exchange, we'd like to take over the spot

Morgan seemed as if he had just been struck by lightning.The call was hung up from the other end, leaving only the cold and unforgiving beeps ringing in his ear.Morgan never put down the phone. He just stood there.Amadeus realized that something wasn't right. "Dad?"The next moment, Morgan's body trembled as the phone dropped onto the floor.His bloodshot eyes were now filled with tears.His face was pale white as he pursed his lips and slowly lowered himself onto the floor.Morgan started to cry.The scene in front of Amadeus only terrified him even further. "Say something, Dad! What happened? Don't scare me like this!"Morgan had always been a stubborn yet steady father figure ever since he started remembering things. Amadeus had never once witnessed his father having such a childlike side.News about the dignified Morgan crying like a baby being widespread would definitely shock the entire Basin City.Morgan glared at Amadeus through teary eyes and shouted, "Get out! G

The Basin Mountains Villa was lit up majestically.As an art museum, it had been used to hold all sorts of art exhibitions within Basin City.Even the lights during nighttime were extremely beautiful.On the balcony, Austin, Vincent, and Aldus sat around a small table as they enjoyed the beautiful nighttime scenery. Vincent suddenly smiled and broke the silence. "It sure is chilly tonight.""Are you sure they're coming?" asked Aldus.Vincent then turned around and smiled at Austin.Austin himself was not certain if the Redmonts would come as well.All he could do now was wait after he had already given them extremely "generous" terms.Either Morgan sacrificed himself alone for forgiveness, or the entire Redmont family would have to take the fall for him.It was a question with an extremely easy answer for an old man.Austin would not have bothered with such an offer if not to minimize spilling unnecessary blood.Dahlia was everything to Austin.And the Redmonts had taken

Austin's disdainful tone was nothing short of arrogance.Morgan could not help but feel suffocated.Amadeus from the side was extremely furious. "What else do you want, Austin? You've already humiliated us more than enough! Are you trying to kick us while we're already down?"Austin turned around and stared straight at Amadeus. "Yes, I am. Why else would I bother? Have you considered that when you tried to plot to murder me, you killed my mother instead?"You—"The living room fell eerily quiet.Morgan glared at Amadeus as he opened his mouth. "What do you want, Mr. Campbell?""I want ownership of half of all shares belonging to the Redmonts!"Both Morgan and Amadeus were left dumbfounded.The Redmonts only managed to reach their current status thanks to the countless number of businesses under their name.And now, Austin had declared that he wanted half of everything the Redmonts had built throughout their history.It was still a huge amount of money even if it was just hal
