In the hospital room, the male lead lay on the bed. The doctor had already treated his wounds, especially the one on his face. Now it was covered with gauze and cotton. No one knew what the situation underneath was like, but the doctor had also told him that there was a high probability it would leave a scar. The male lead lay on the hospital bed looking at the ceiling, his mind a blank. He knew he was finished. He would have to be like his father or uncle, find an ordinary job, and then waste away his…-

Advanced chapter until 500+ at patreon.com/caleredhair What do you want? Money, power, status. There are many desires, but Lance knew that saying these things didn't have much meaning. Because whether it was money, power, social status, or other things, he could obtain all of these himself. What people wish for from a wish-granting genie is always something they cannot obtain through their own efforts, not something that is readily available. He thought for a moment and said with a serious…

Advanced chapter until 500+ at patreon.com/caleredhair Chief Dale stood at the entrance of the Bureau of Hazardous Materials to welcome his "heroes" home. When Lukar got out of the car, he didn't hesitate to give the man a hug! "Well done, I heard about the situation at the scene.

"How are you sure he did it?" Chief Dale looked at the car parked on the side of the road across from him and said softly, "Because he's right here!" Under Chief Dale's gaze, Roben the lawyer brought a group of bailed-out people to the car. He bent over slightly, his face full of a fawning smile, "Mr. Lance, I've brought…

"He drank too much, the bartender wouldn't sell him any more liquor, he wanted to cause trouble, and then he was kicked out." "He saw Rob go to the phone booth across the street, and then a little while later, Lukar and his men arrived." Lance glanced at the young man next to Morris, repeating a part of what Morris had just…

"You mean Jack?" Patricia looked at Lance. "I remember you met last time, at Barbara's birthday party." Speaking of Barbara's birthday party, Patricia showed a hint of envy. Barbara's life was what she yearned for. Perhaps this was a thought most good girls have had. They longed to wear the long dresses that church schools didn't allow girls to wear, didn't permit them to dress up extravagantly, and didn't allow them to laugh or cry loudly. The gradual exit of church schools from the stage of history…

Advanced chapter until 500+ at patreon.com/caleredhair Just as Lance and William were discussing Mr. Jobav becoming their opponent, Mr. Jobav was also chatting with the mayor about this. "...Lance's status in the hearts of the Empire immigrants is very high. If he supports that William fellow to run for election, it's hard for me to say I can secure a stable victory."

There were two other specialists in the office; they were both specialist representatives from the Liji Group's headquarters, here to handle some work. In fact, it wasn't just the two of them, but an entire legal team. Lance was just one of their clients. There were other similar, but not entirely identical,…

Lance left very decisively. So decisively that there was no argument, no scene, which made even Bridge feel it was incredible. The blonde secretary, carrying coffee, was just about to knock on the door when she saw Lance walk out from inside. She was somewhat stunned and at a loss, watching as Lance walked to the elevator and pressed the button, while she peeked her head into the room. She didn't know who to give the coffee in her hand to, or if she should throw it away. In a large corporation, serving…

Advanced chapter until 500+ at patreon.com/caleredhair "Actually, you could introduce me to work at your company." Sitting in the passenger seat, Nancy's hand rested on the car window. The wind blew in through the window, lifting her hair. This refreshing feeling was simply fantastic! Although this was a used car, which in her estimation should be worth four or five hundred dollars, it was a car after all.
