Chambers of commerce are not uncommon. But not uncommon doesn't necessarily mean they are low-end; a chamber of commerce is not low-end at all. The people in the seats looked at each other, somewhat unsure how to respond. Finally, the oldest gentleman spoke, "Mr. Lance, if we join this chamber of commerce, what can it bring us, and what will we have to give?" "If we don't join the chamber of commerce, will it..." He was very worried, but seeing that Lance didn't seem too difficult to talk to, he voiced…-

At six o'clock, the dock still bustled with workers. Some ships arrived at Golden Port in the middle of the night, but they couldn't stay for long, so they unloaded their cargo overnight. Additionally, at night, some docks needed to sort and organize the cargo urgently unloaded during the day. Some might need to be restacked, some might need to be put into warehouses, and some would be directly loaded onto trains and sent off. In short, there was a lot of work to be done in the middle of the night, and…-

"The order wasn't delivered?" Sam's tone shifted slightly. "That's impossible, I saw them set off with my own eyes. It can't be undelivered after all this time!" The voice on the other end remained calm and unhurried. "Mr. Sam, do you think I'm lying, or is the boss lying?" This statement could be considered a very stern "accusation." How could important figures like them lie to a pimp? Sam also knew he had spoken incorrectly, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, sir, it's my mistake. I'll immediately…-

The telephone rang twice before being answered. Sam took a deep breath, trying his best not to be so... angry. "Elvin?" He had already inquired; the core of the Lance family was Lance himself, and then below him were the three higher core members: Elvin, Morris, and Hiram. Further down? A large number of senior cadres, but he wasn't interested in that. He just wanted to find Lisa now and have her please Mr. Hoff to solve a series of problems. Elvin's voice sounded very young, which made Sam somewhat…-

Sam, still not entirely at ease, personally conducted a final check, as this was crucial for the new Red High Heels to recover its business more quickly. Initially, he was somewhat reluctant to take on this job. He was already doing quite well in Paradise City, with a client base entirely composed of distinguished individuals from high society. He lived a life free from financial worries, held a certain social standing, and Paradise City was a thriving metropolis with a rich entertainment industry, more…-

The bumpy carriage made Lisa curl up in the corner. The dim light prevented her from clearly seeing the person's appearance, but this feeling, it was unmistakable! "B-Booker, Mr. Booker." In the darkness, a silhouette barely visible by the faint light from outside the window slowly turned to look at her. She couldn't see anything clearly, but she just knew it was Booker! She was trembling. If Liam was a demon, then Booker was the demon's minion. He would torment the girls in even more cruel ways, just…-

Advanced chapter subscribe at patreon.com/caleredhair In moments of extreme tension, a person can not only hear their own heartbeat but also the sound of blood flowing through their veins. He used to hear people say that during duels, cowboys in the West, with their backs to their opponents, would experience this sensation at the moment they completed the last step, turned, drew their guns, and fired. It was as if time would slow down, their vision would improve, allowing them to see every movement of…-

After Lance temporarily settled down in Aldera, he would call Elvin every day. Elvin reported some situations to him, such as the renovation of the Imperial Night nightclub and the operation of the five bars. Bars actually didn't require much preparation; as long as there was alcohol to sell, old alcoholics would find their way there by scent. Moreover, the police department had already returned the alcohol confiscated from the bars. It's worth noting that this wasn't an "illegal" act, but a legal one,…-

Lance did not want the young men to trouble these girls. The manager in charge of this side looked at her, and after a moment of mutual gaze, he spread his hands. "Alright, go change your clothes, and then leave through the side door." "Do you need me to arrange someone to escort you part of the way?" Lisa initially wanted to refuse, but considering she was the only girl, she nodded and even kissed the manager on the face. "Thank you, I'll be grateful to you." It sounded like a normal dialogue, but her…-

Advanced chapter at patreon.com/caleredhair The girls of Aldera were fiery, and the cold weather couldn't stop them from displaying their passion, from their intense, enthusiastic dancing to their yearning to stay, willing to give anything. To engage in an exchange of spirit and flesh with them, one only needed to take one more step, a tiny step, an almost tangible step! Fortunately, Lance was a man of strong convictions, or perhaps, having seen and experienced much, these minor scenes, while somewhat…-
