Chapter 505

by karlmaks — Lance had been arrested. The news spread quickly, reaching almost the entire upper crust of Golden Port society in a very short time. At the same time, they also learned about the attack on the Kodak Club. It was said that millions in gambling funds had been stolen by the robbers. For a moment, the telephone lines in Golden Port hit a small peak as many people became concerned with one question—was there a chance to pry this money out of Lance's mouth? After all, it was several million,…

by karlmaks — The private casino operators from two districts sat in Lance's office. The room was quiet at the moment; they were all carefully mulling it over. Thirty percent. This was a number they were a little unsure how to express their feelings about. If you were to say... it was too much, it was actually much less than the minimum 50% cut proposed by the Kodak Family. But to say they were happy, that wasn't necessarily true either. After all, having to give away real money to someone else would make…

by karlmaks — After Deputy Chief Duke left the Kodak family manor, he immediately made a phone call to Chief Bruce. "I'm out. Is this all that's needed?" "Yes, this is enough. You might have to make a few more trips in the next few days. Things will be over soon." "Okay, just let me know when." "I'm off to handle other things." The major cleanup was nearing its end, but it wasn't completely finished. He still had a lot of work to do. He was actually very curious, but he also knew to only ask questions he…

Chapter 292

by karlmaks — "Why didn't Dover come today?" Karles Gregg was a little strange. He knew the man with the center part, the guy who often appeared by Paul's side. Dover said this was one of his many uncles. But his tone lacked reverence. If you expect a young person to be in awe of an old man, then this old man must be able to decide some of the young person's fate in some aspect. For example, if the old man holds wealth, holds power, and can influence the young person, only then will the young person be in…

by karlmaks — Recently, sound films have driven the rapid development of the entire film industry, attracting the attention of a lot of capital. The entry of capital naturally brings a series of changes. To cope with these changes, at the initiative of some screenwriters, directors, and actors, a "Film Practitioners' Guild" was formed. Any practitioner related to film can join this guild, and the organizers claim that they will integrate and efficiently utilize the resources of the entire industry. Many…

Chapter 356

by karlmaks — In a low-rise building not far from the docks, an old man with a rather thin build looked at the two "young men" in front of him, who were much younger than him, and asked, "Who is that person?" "He seems to have a certain prestige at the docks. I don't remember the company or the docks having such a figure. His appearance is clearly beyond my knowledge." A subordinate said softly, "That person is named Lance. He's a... uh, gang leader." "A gang!" The old man pursed his lips. "I don't like gangs.…

Chapter 388

by karlmaks — In the morning, Mador returned from the docks with a few men. Lance received them in the open space behind his office. He and two of them then went into the office together. "These are all my former comrades-in-arms. Luigi was personally taken care of by them." He handed several photos to Lance, including a newspaper. For a small country like the Aldra Republic, the death of a foreigner was definitely not a big deal. There are always people in this world who don't believe in evil. You tell…

Chapter 420

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 452

by karlmaks — In the spacious room, money boxes sent from various bars were piled up. The young men of the family sat together, quickly sorting the banknotes inside the boxes. Lance sat on a sofa to the side, holding a cigar. In truth, he didn't particularly like cigars because he couldn't inhale them into his lungs, but recently he seemed to have found a little pleasure in them. It was a very powerful cigar; smoking it felt like drinking liquor, giving a slight dizzying sensation. This was due to the large…

by karlmaks — As he spoke, the President glanced at the bathroom, but he didn't see the Vice President. If he were just peeing, he should be back by now. He couldn't be taking a shit, could he? At this thought, an expression of displeasure, or perhaps discomfort, appeared in his eyes. He didn't like people shitting in his house. The smell would permeate the bathroom, and they would be sitting on his toilet, shitting in his toilet. He didn't like this, but it wasn't convenient to say so. Every time a guest…
