The room was not locked probably because they knew that Yvette could not run far even if the door was wide open.On the contrary, leaving the door unlocked could show Sean’s trust in Yvette.This sense of trust seemed like a nice gesture, but to Yvette, it felt more like humiliation.However, Yvette still stood at the door to listen in on the conversation downstairs.“Boss, you’re amazing. You poached the old master’s client at the first transaction. That is also the old master’s biggest client. Who knew he would agree to cooperate with you?”“That’s right! The main thing is the location. It’s the main planting ground for coca too, so we don’t need to worry about production or the supply chain again. The sky is the limit! Now, the old master won’t be able to touch you. We just changed the dynamics of this place, and we’re big enough to suppress the old master!”“Yup. Now that we have control over this channel and our boss still has some of the old master’s power, we’ve basically

Yvette went to the bathroom to wash up. Sean also joined her.He hugged her and attentively squeezed the toothpaste for her.Yvette accepted his service calmly without looking flattered.The smile on Sean’s face reached his eyes and gradually deepened. He bowed his head to kiss her hair, cheek, and nose from time to time.They seemed to have returned to the time when they were passionately in love, as if they wanted to be glued together all the time.In the end, Sean reluctantly left only when Tate knocked on the door.However, he also brought Yvette with him.The people downstairs did not know what to say for a moment when they saw the couple going downstairs hand in hand.Tate was used to it, so he calmly went to help in the kitchen.When Tres saw this, he looked indifferent and resentful.However, the woman sitting next to him tugged at him to attract his attention.“Everyone is here. Let’s eat.”Sean looked at them and regained his usual composure.He could tell that t

The man looked at the chef, Tate, and Yvette with a smile.“Okay, then I won’t frighten Ms. Quimbey. Call Sean and ask him to come back. The old master is still waiting for Ms. Quimbey to have tea.”The chef looked at Tate in a tangle.Tate took out his phone without hesitation.The man walked inside and sat down as if it was his own home.He sighed.“Sean is really something. The old master gave Sean this channel and hopes that Sean doesn’t let him down. If Sean doesn’t do well, the old master will take it back.”The chef smiled and said, “Are you hungry? Shall I make you something to eat?”“No need.”Tate was quick to inform Sean, who did not delay either.In less than ten minutes, Sean had already arrived at the compound.The car engine was just as loud as the helicopter.Sean came in with heavy steps and an icy face.“Mr. Loubon, forgive me for the lack of hospitality since you came over so suddenly without informing me.”Mr. Loubon smiled and stood up with superficia

The gunfire outside was incessant and reverberating.The cold wind blew over the smell of gunpowder which filled the air.Yvette’s face turned pale with fright. She lost her wits.She did not want to die from getting shot by stray bullets.Sean blocked her behind him so that she was within safe range.Yvette had no idea that the danger would come so suddenly.She also did not know that people could die so silently.Those teenagers she saw standing guard with guns just a second ago became corpses on the ground. They would never get up again.She followed Sean in shock.Tate ran to the front to open a path for them, but Mr. Cash’s siege was well-planned. He wanted to trap Sean from all sides and confront him head-on.Sean knew that Mr. Cash had such courage because this was at the behest of the old master.‘Hah… But so what?’ Sean thought.He could only get to where he was in this line of business not because he was benevolent, righteous, and moral.That was all bullsh*t!S

Soon after, the doctor arrived.Sean also fainted due to excessive bleeding.He was carried into the room and surrounded by countless people.Yvette could not even squeeze in through the door.She sat in the corner and covered her ears because they were still buzzing.This felt like a dream.In the past when she heard Nicole jokingly talk about her near-death experiences, Yvette just smiled and listened without taking it to heart.She thought that there were not so many dangers in the world because the world today was peaceful, right?Now, standing here in person, Yvette seemed to have a different perspective on all her thoughts.The things Nicole told her did not seem to be tragic enough probably because Nicole held back some of the gory details.Yvette hung her head and felt the tingling pain in her heart.She was sober and in pain.“Okay, all of you can leave. The patient needs some rest. Only a few can stay.”The doctor nervously and helplessly chased everyone out of t
