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…

Chapter 516

by karlmaks — Most bars in Uptown (Starlight District) play trendy or relaxing music, and many have live singers. The "cotton-picking experts," after enduring countless hardships, had finally achieved complete freedom. But freedom left them dazed and at a loss. In the past, although the farm owners and plantation owners would sometimes whip them, forcing them to work, work, work, at least the plantation owners would feed them until they were full. Even if the food wasn't good, they would make sure they were…

Chapter 548

by karlmaks — The meal lasted for more than two hours, and it was clear they had all had too much to drink. The most common thing people do in adversity is to reminisce about their glorious past, and memory can thus become a potent poison. The recollection of the past made all three of them show some true feelings, including Bandy. He had indeed been having a hard time recently. As soon as he thought of the past glory of the Five Families, a desire to return to the past would well up in his heart. But the…

Chapter 644

by karlmaks — Today is the last day of Mayor Williams's ultimatum. He asked Lance to come over mainly to discuss some of the next steps. Since there was no room for resolving the conflict between the two sides, he would not consider trying to persuade them. As a former member of the Golden Port City Bay Area interest group, he knew very well the greed of these people. Even if he satisfied them now, they would make more excessive demands in the future. They would test his bottom line, find it bit by bit, and…

Chapter 399

by karlmaks — A little after one in the afternoon, Alberto drove over personally to pick up Lance. The two embraced after meeting. "You look... much more composed." The clothes Alberto used to wear leaned more towards a flamboyant, trendy style. You could see colorful pocket squares in his breast pocket. You could also see him wearing a tie with multi-colored polka dots, paired with a not-so-serious tie clip. He wasn't young, in his thirties, but he still lacked the steadiness of a young man. This was…

by karlmaks — In the morning, Corinda brought back the newspapers from the paper box and placed them by the side of the table. Lance casually flipped through them. The front page of Golden Port Today had several headlines. One of them caught Lance's attention—"The Cassia Family has Officially Become a Thing of the Past." He turned to the fourth page. The subtitles on the fourth and fifth pages were "The Demise of the Cassia Family." There were many photos inside, all in pairs for comparison. The first to…

by karlmaks — "I hear there's an Anderson restaurant in the Starlight District that's incredibly delicious..." As the group left the company, one of them started talking about a highly-rated restaurant they had recently discovered. Everyone has different hobbies, but most people are quite interested in local cuisine. Seeing them ask for his opinion, the specialist had no objection. "Let's go there, then." He had traveled all over the Federation. At first, he still enjoyed trying some fine dining, but as he…

Chapter 495

by karlmaks — From a certain door of the abandoned factory walked out a dozen or so young men with their hands up. The police outside immediately rushed over. The man at the very front walked up to Alan and punched him directly. "Get down!" Alan didn't move, just watched. This police officer punched him again. Because of the large movement, the things he was wearing on his body jingled and clattered. With one punch, Alan's cheekbone immediately turned red, and the skin was broken in two places. This punch…
