Chapter 424

by karlmaks — "I heard you had a little problem over there." William stood facing the full-length mirror while Emily helped him adjust his clothes. These were all clothes personally made by the old tailor, fitting him perfectly. Although the old tailor was not yet famous in the Federation... But he was indeed capable, otherwise the nobles would not wear the clothes he made. William, carefully groomed in the mirror, looked as if he were several years younger. He looked at Lance through the mirror. Lance…

Chapter 423

by karlmaks — In the hospital, Lance met his nominal sister, Loraine. Loraine was just an ordinary-looking girl, not very tall, with some scars on her body. She wore very plain clothes and was curled up on the hospital bed. When she saw Lance come in, she was obviously a little nervous. The policewoman next to her, who got along well with her, also stood up, because Sub-bureau Chief Bruce was right behind Lance. "Let Lance and Loraine have a chat alone," Sub-bureau Chief Bruce instructed the doctor. The…

by karlmaks — "Joe, this is yours..." "Thank you, thank you all, and thank Mr. Lance..." A police officer, his face beaming with a smile he couldn't contain, took the envelope from the young men and stepped to the side. Under the gazes of several people, he opened the envelope and took out nine $5 bills. The smile on his face immediately grew warmer. This filled the other officers with a sense of anticipation. They had never been able to look forward to an extra income so openly and honorably. In the…

Chapter 421

by karlmaks — Very few locals in Golden Port had ever attended a dinner party at Councilman Williams's home; even the mayor had not. Councilman Williams was well aware of Lance's purpose in bringing William, and he was willing to cooperate with William to a certain extent. After all, there were only eleven council members in the city. The more he could gather, the stronger his position would be in the confrontation with the Bay Area. The Bay Area was not easy to deal with, otherwise he wouldn't have cooperated…

by karlmaks — "Of the Five Families, three have already been arranged for. What about the remaining two?" Councilman Williams looked at Lance with some anticipation. The arrangements for these three families were very well-handled. Lance didn't even need to make much of a move himself to get everything to the state he wanted. So he was even more curious about what would be done with the remaining two families. Lance also glanced at the pastries on the table. He also broke off a small piece and put it in his…

Chapter 419

by karlmaks — Councilman Williams acted as if he didn't understand the things Lance was trying to express, still wearing a smiling expression. The wrinkles on his face were already very obvious, making his slightly thin face look even more gaunt. "What are your thoughts going forward?" From the current point of view, Councilman Williams was Lance's most worthy partner, bar none. Especially since Councilman Williams was going to run for mayor. With the role he played in this crisis, the position of mayor was…

by karlmaks — Hunter made a phone call to Charlie. Although he was the chief now, he still had to defer to Charlie. Don't look at the fact that Charlie wasn't the chief anymore; he was about to become the Bay Area's municipal councilman. The nickname "Bay Area's Hound" would most likely continue, as a reward for his loyalty to the Bay Area. Once he became a municipal councilman, he could do much more for the wealthy people of the Bay Area, and Hunter himself did not have close ties to the Bay Area. He could…

Chapter 417

by karlmaks — Between killing the enemy's leader or saving one's own, how to choose? This is a very complex question. Some would choose to continue pursuing the enemy's leader, while others would choose to save their own boss. After all, saving the boss's life is far more likely to win the boss's favor than getting rid of the enemy's leader. When the gunmen from Yalan began to counterattack and pulled him out of the car, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In this extremely short period of time, he made a…

Chapter 416

by karlmaks — Everyone cherishes time, but time is also the most helpless of things. It won't show you any more mercy just because you cherish it, nor will it move any slower for you. Whether you cherish it or ignore it, your time and everyone else's is the same. Or rather, the process of matter acting upon your bodies is the same. It's even possible that because you cherish time, you make yourself more tired. But who can really say for sure about such things? Two days passed in the blink of an…

Chapter 415

by karlmaks — It was already September. Imperial bureau Chief Bruce gave Lance a call, asking whether to collect this month's fees or not. Lance told him to stop starting this month because Lance's men had already begun collecting the new hygiene fees. He had changed the name for these protection fees to "hygiene fees." He had set up a new company called "Wanli Cleaning Company." The main business of this company was to provide environmental cleaning services to clients. All the merchants in the Empire District…
