Chapter 523

by karlmaks — Since seeing the newspaper this morning, the mayor hadn't touched the other half of his breakfast. He just sat dumbly in his dining room chair, gazing at the blue sky and the distant horizon outside the living room's floor-to-ceiling windows. He had remained this way for a considerable time, perhaps almost an hour. The secretary felt he was thinking or something and did not disturb him. It wasn't until nearly nine o'clock that a sigh was heard. The mayor finally moved his body and left the dining…

Chapter 555

by karlmaks — For several days in a row, Figal hadn't had a good night's sleep. He would always wake up after a short while. He felt as if he was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Lance was like a fishbone stuck in his throat, slowly taking away his life, making him uncomfortable whether he was sitting or standing. "Can you please sit down?" his brother said irritably, watching him pace back and forth and sigh constantly. Figal glanced at him and then sat down. His brother continued, "Everyone is very…

by karlmaks — Watching the young man pack as much of the leftover food as he could into the brown paper bag, Lance had a hint of anticipation on his smiling face. "You have high hopes for this young man?" Elvin asked. Given their current age, it wasn't strange to refer to this boy as a "young man." Lance nodded, then shook his head. "Once the federal government forms a military alliance with Slad, more refugees will pour in here." He turned to look at Elvin, then at the others behind him. "Why did we 'stand…

Chapter 619

by karlmaks — Jack was also paying close attention to some of the recent changes within Golden Port City. He had also heard some rumors, which mainly came from people connected to the smuggling groups. It was like... some people would complain to a stranger about things at work. They didn't think the stranger would, because of their complaints, cause any problems for their work or life. Just like when you're waiting for a bus and chatting with a passerby, you tell him a lot of bad things about your boss and…

Chapter 651

by karlmaks — Everyone was thinking. This was a game, a gamble, but it was not a card game! There was only one round here, and the win or loss was not just the metal or other material chips on the table. You had to bet your everything. This was indeed not an easy choice, and it required not only money, but also courage, so Lance did not rush them. He smoked his cigarette and waited quietly. Taking over the dock management company, taking over the shares of the port and docks, seemed to be simply…

Chapter 534

by karlmaks — Lance listened intently as Roben the lawyer discussed the specifics of the case. He wasn't very clear on the developments at the Bureau of Hazardous Materials. Roben stated frankly, "You know, I have some connections at the Department of Justice." Lance's case in New Golden City was also handled with Roben's help. He found a lawyer he had a good relationship with to handle the lawsuit there for Lance, and at the same time, he pulled some strings at the Department of Justice. Judicial fairness in…

Chapter 566

by karlmaks — For the past few days, the number of customers in the Golden Port Casino had decreased significantly. Rumors were spreading throughout the city, with all sorts of stories. But all the rumors had one central theme— The landscape of Golden Port City's underworld was about to undergo a massive change. People didn't know when the casino would be attacked, and they didn't dare to risk gambling there. The poor business was like fate telling Bandy in another way that he had to do something. Gorry…

by karlmaks — Several days had passed since Mr. Thurray had contacted Jordan. At first, he didn't feel much unease, only the thrill of impending revenge. But as a week went by with no word from Jordan, he began to feel a little restless. He had someone make inquiries and found out that in the higher echelons of Golden Port City, there was now only one major gang: the Lance Family. They were the top, the one and only. The former Five Families were a thing of the past, with only the Pasoretto Family remaining,…

by karlmaks — The smoke from the muzzle rose in curls. Several police officers holstered their weapons. They glanced at the two dead truck drivers on the ground, then walked to the back of the truck's cargo hold and cut open the lead seal with pliers. Some vehicles in the vicinity had noticed the situation here, but just as they were about to stop and watch the excitement, they were asked by the patrol officers to drive away as soon as possible. Someone, not believing in evil, moved a distance and then stopped. As…

Chapter 662: Father-Son Talk and Conflict

by karlmaks — The atmosphere in the city was a bit gloomy. People didn't know what was happening, but they could feel that the raindrops were already pattering down. Hitting the ground, hitting the puddles, and also hitting people's faces. The feeling of walking in a heavy rain, with dark clouds covering the sky and making the world seem like night, was particularly terrible. Mayor Williams's gaze returned from the window outside. He had already received the full news that Lance had sent people to the school to…
