Chase not only stunned Jeanie with his slap, but he even stunned the other shareholders.“You scoundrel, who are you? How dare you slap Miss Shuhman?”One of the shareholders who was close to Jeanie got up and scolded him.The rest of the shareholders also glared at Chase.However, Chase said calmly, “Quinn is my wife. I’m already being very kind by just slapping her once for wanting to dismiss her.”Jeanie let out a growl before pouncing on Quinn while making threatening gestures.“Quinn, you bitch! How dare you allow that loser to slap me?! I’m going to kill you!”Chase slapped Jeanie again, sending her to the floor. The other side of Jeanie’s face was also swollen.Jeanie almost passed out from the humiliation of getting slapped twice.“Anyone else wants to dismiss my wife?” Chase scanned the room.Everyone took a few steps back, not daring to say anything.They were used to being aloof and arrogant. They had never met anyone who would use violence just because of a sligh
“If you find a way to reach an agreement with La Fleur in three days and help the company through this crisis, you'll still be the CEO. We won't have any objections.“On the contrary, if you can’t, don’t blame us for being merciless.”“That’s not all.” Chase suddenly chimed in. He pointed at Jeanie and said, “If Quinn manages to get the investment, I want to add on another stake. I want this bitch to clear out her shares and get out of Quinn’s company!”Jeanie scoffed in contempt and said, “Alright. If you get the investment, I can give up my shares and transfer them to you unconditionally. Everyone here is my witness.”“Alright, it’s a deal, then.”Since things had escalated to this point, Quinn knew she had no choice. She could only leave with Chase.After the two left, Jeanie showed a pleased grin. She thought, 'You fell for my tricks, you bitch.'I'm the lover of the manager of La Fleur. As long as I say something, you might not even be able to step into the doors of La Fle
Half an hour later, Quinn headed to La Fleur with Chase and Elaine.Chase was the driver.Right after Quinn got into the car, she asked, “Elaine, do you have the information about the senior executives of La Fleur?”Elaine opened her notebook and pushed her glasses. “I do. The CEO of La Fleur is named Chase Collins.”After she said that, she peered at Chase, who was driving. He commented, “He has the same name as that guy.”The same name as Chase? Quinn was shocked after she heard that.However, she did not think too much. After all, there were a lot of people with the same names in the world.Elaine continued, “I heard that Mr. Collins is very mysterious and doesn’t like to show his face. Therefore, not a lot of people have seen him before.“So, the deputy CEO, Sandy Lawson, is the one who makes all the decisions."“But I don’t know Miss Lawson…” Quinn said, looking troubled.Chase, who was still driving, chimed in, “Quinn, you can see Sandy after you tell the front desk you
It was no wonder that Huey was obsessed with her.That bitch, Jeanie, had never liked Quinn. It was clear that Jeanie was jealous of her.Owen swore that he would have Quinn.He quietly made the promise to himself.Owen looked at Elaine and Chase, who were seated beside Quinn, and said, “There's something I need to discuss with Miss Norris. I’d like to ask the rest of you to leave.”Elaine tried to pull Chase out of there.However, Chase refused to budge and said, “May I know what you'd like to discuss with my wife that I’m not allowed to listen to, Mr. Hudson?”“Chase is my husband, Mr. Hudson. He won’t disclose what we discuss,” Quinn said with a nod.Quinn made sure to take care of Chase’s pride when they were in public.Owen’s face fell as he said unhappily, “It sounds like you’re not sincere about meeting Miss Lawson. If that’s the way you feel, you can forget about this.“See them out, Amy!”He grunted coldly.Amy immediately said, “Please come this way, Miss Quinn. T
When Sandy received the call from Chase, she immediately stopped her work and waited for Quinn in the office.However, she waited for a long time but no one showed up. She had no choice but to call the security office to inquire if a woman had dropped by.She found out from security that Quinn had been taken to the general manager’s office.Sandy was reminded of Owen’s past of sexually harassing women by using work as an excuse, which was why she rushed over.She almost passed out from what she saw at the office.Sandy was too late.She broke out in a cold sweat as she looked at Chase and said, “Mr. Co…”Chase spoke up first, “Miss Lawson, the general manager of your company threatened my wife to sleep with him. I couldn't accept this behavior and beat him up for it. Please see to this matter.”Owen sneered at Chase in disdain.He was the company’s general manager and held a lot of power. There was no way Sandy would punish him just because he requested it.Quinn and Elaine s
What?Two billion?Quinn and Elanie were shocked. They thought they had heard it wrong.Both of them came with the preconceived notion that it would be difficult to get their investment. However, Sandy was already aware of their reason for being here and even took the initiative to offer two billion as an investment.“Is the investment too little for you, Miss Norris?” The look on Sandy’s face changed slightly as she asked the question.Quinn quickly waved her hands anxiously and stammered, “No, no. That’s enough.”She would have been happy with one or two hundred million in investment.She did not expect Sandy to offer two billion instead, which shocked her.“Good. Come with me to sign the contract, please.” Sandy gestured toward a direction respectfully.That was how Quinn managed to quickly sign a partnership agreement with La Fleur.Before she left, Sandy gave Quinn her card. “This is my personal contact information, Miss Norris. Please feel free to contact me should you
Chase paused after saying this.Both women were taken aback.Quinn frowned and said, “What do you mean? Are you telling me that you’re the CEO of La Fleur?”“That’s right. I’m the CEO of La Fleur,” Chase admitted graciously.Elaine could not help sniggering. “Are you trying to show off, Collins?“Just because your surname is also Collins doesn’t mean that you’re the CEO of La Fleur.”She looked at Chase with disdain. “I have to say that this is the first time I’ve seen someone as shameless as you.”Chase replied seriously, “I really am the CEO of La Fleur. If you don’t believe me, I can get Sandy Lawson here as my witness…”“Alright, stop fooling around. The most important thing right now is to return to the company and share the good news with the shareholders.”Quinn interrupted Chase. They got into the car and drove straight to Blizzard Group.It was clear that even she did not believe that Chase was the CEO of La Fleur.Elaine was looking forward to getting back as she s
“What?!”Everyone exclaimed loudly when they heard this. They were all shocked by the news.They passed the contract around to read it as their minds went blank.It was really true!After Jeanie was done reading it, all she saw in front of her was black. She almost passed out.“This is impossible. It’s not possible that this bitch would be able to get two billion worth of investment.”She looked vicious as she roared horribly, “I’ve told Owen Hudson to do something about this. What was that useless man doing?!”There was an incredulous look in her eyes, and she was almost going crazy from things not working out the way she planned.Jeanie had always been better at Quinn when it came to both looks and capability.She was finally given the opportunity to defeat Quinn but ended up still being on the losing end.How could Jeanie take this?!Quinn looked coldly at Jeanie when she heard what Jeanie said and retorted, “So, Owen Hudson had been working for you, Jeanie.“Unfortunate
Carla thought Chase must have an amazing sense of understanding and enlightenment. He was able to see through the essence of the opponent's technique every time he fought and used it. He was a genius.Facing Chase directly made her understand what real intimidation felt like.She was also Chase's target as she was standing next to Fallon.As the top mind and soul cultivator in the nether realm, Carla knew that there was no escape from Chase.Chase would immediately react the moment she made a slight movement.Carla had never felt such pressure before.It was terrifying.Fallon's heart sank when facing Chase.He had been careless.Chase was harder to deal with than Carla, Tack, and Norm combined.Fallon knew how powerful Carla was.The Evil Shadow Sect was good at using the mind and soul in fights, but they were not powerful enough when it came to direct attacks. The Nefarious Deity Sect was good at body refinement, corpse refining, and using Nefarious Deity to strengthen the
Chase watched as Fallon chatted with others and did not answer his question.He was furious with Fallon for ignoring him.Chase immediately used Thousand Eyes and Flowers, which he had learned from Jade. A firewall slowly burned behind him. The eye of the fire kept shooting flames as it slowly gathered more flames.The air around it was like an oven as the temperature shot up continuously."Step back."Chase warned Willow and the others.Willow and Walter were the only ones who knew about his sisters.They took several steps back to avoid the range of Chase's Thousand Eyes and Flowers. Willow and Walter showed Yara and Lisa images of Chase's sisters to explain the situation."These two sisters of Chase are really beautiful. The one in white looks adorable while the one in purple looks so dashing. Tsk, tsk. I had no idea he had such good fortune."Yara praised Olivia and Hanna when he saw their images.Willow and Lisa felt a little jealous. "They're all right."They replied w
They objected to Carla and Fallon's relationship from the very start.Both of them were happy to see them fight.If Carla could break up with Fallon, they might consider forgiving Carla for setting up the Severance Formation against them.After all, it would be good for her if she learned her lesson.Tack and Norm waited to see how Fallon would handle this.Norm knew nothing about this, but Tack was sure of one thing. Chase's sisters were in his hands.Besides them, one of Chase's seven sisters was in the hands of a Supreme Elder from the Nefarious Deity sect.Fallon had been wondering about Chase's sisters when Carla suddenly accused him of this. He could not help sighing quietly.What did he do to deserve this?"Would you believe me if I told you I don't know who his sisters are?" Fallon said bitterly."Believe you? If I'm right about this, Chase Collins is working with Willow because he wants to find his sisters. He already has the Nefarious Deity Sect locked down as the p
At the tournament venue, Chase watched as Yara held Willow's hand while Willow was holding Lisa's hand. All three of them came toward him in a line.He looked at them strangely.Yara had forgotten that she was dressed as a man, and it looked quite striking to be holding two women's hands.The spectators and Yara's die-hard fans burned with jealousy when they saw their ideal man being close to Willow, who should know better. They became agitated as all sorts of speculations crossed their minds. They started to curse at Willow."Who's that slut? How dare she seduce Yara?""Tear her apart right now! Go on! What are you waiting for?""Vixen! She's shameless. How could she be good enough for Yara when she's so ugly?""Tsk, tsk. Could she have drugged him? Why does Yara look excited? There's no way he could be interested in a mediocre woman like her when he's such a gorgeous specimen.""Look at the three of them running toward Chase Collins. Is this some sort of new play? Looks excit
Every powerhouse around them must have tried to sense it and come to the same conclusion as her.None of them dared to act rashly.All the top fighters from the sixth level have gathered there to quietly watch Chase, the Chosen One, enter the Holy Path.However, he told everyone that he was waiting for others.All of them had no choice but to wait with him.The people he was waiting for had finally arrived.Yara appeared hurriedly and entered the tournament ring along with Willow and Lisa."Who's that good-looking man?"Tack asked Fallon.Fallon and Carla looked at each other. He answered in exasperation, "That's Yara Fries, who is actually a woman."Tack and Norm did not believe him. Yara may have exceptional looks and could be viewed as a formidable character, but there was no doubt that he was a man.They exclaimed at the same time, "A woman?" "Yes. Yara possesses the phoenix bloodline. Every time Yara goes through the Rising, he will go through a gender change and his
"Hurry up! The Holy Path is about to open!""Huh? Oh no. Carla and the others seemed to come to a ceasefire.""More and more people are gathering here. Everyone is waiting for you…"Many images followed those messages.The sky turned dark as thunder rolled and lightning struck.Everyone there stood quietly. It looked like they were waiting for something.Willow and Lisa were alarmed to see such a serious sight."What's going on?"Yara asked in concern when he saw the expressions on their faces.Lisa still could not say a word as she blushed.Willow acted slightly more naturally. "Something big seems to be happening at the tournament. Yara, are you sure…"She sounded worried."Something big? We should hurry there right now! What are we waiting for?"Yara grabbed her hand to fly over right away.Willow's heart jumped. All her worries seem to disappear.All she could think about was, "Ah! Yara is holding my hand!"Lisa had no idea what to do and followed behind them.When
They did not even notice Chase was trying to message them. Willow and Lisa held each other's hands as their hearts thumped wildly. They did not want to miss any conversation between Yara and Wilbur."No. I rejected him," Yara replied in a huff.Wilbur had to be getting old because his memory was pretty bad.He had already guessed that Yara was not willing. How could he ask such a question? Yara's mood got even worse."Where did River go after that? Do you know?" Wilbur gave a long sigh. Fortunately, River did not end up sleeping with Yara. He was quietly relieved about it."River seemed to be occupied with something and left hurriedly toward the South of the city. I did not see him after that."Yara quietly prayed after answering that Wilbur would head to the city immediately to find his beloved disciple after hearing this news, and stop harassing him. Since River was dead, Yara would send his condolences, and Wilbur should quickly hold a funeral for him."Sorry for disturbing y
Yara was shocked. Only the Red-Robed priest, Tack, from the nether realm's Evil Shadow Sect, knew about his phoenix bloodline being awakened. He had even kept it a secret from the Fries.Everyone on the sixth level thought he was physically a man.How did River find out about it?After some probing, he realized River had no idea the nether realm existed, much less knew about Tack. He found this puzzling. Now that Wilbur had come furiously to attack him, Yara decided to try probing him about it. He wondered if River acted on his master's orders.Yara had no idea that River's mind and soul had been possessed by one of Klondike's projected forms.Klondike wanted to know more about the Dark and Light Order of the Path in this world, where the Dark and Light Divine Pearls ruled. It was the best way to quickly possess them.Phoenixes were bloodlines of Ancient Divine Beasts. To Klondike, they were the best medium to understand the source of this world and the Order of the Path.Interc
That was when he saw Yara walk out of the room. He could sense River's unique aura emanating from him.Wilbur immediately determined Yara to be River's murderer. A spear shot through the air, and the space around it contorted. The walls surrounding the spear were instantly crushed.When Yara was suddenly attacked, he used a strange technique and drifted from the door to the balcony. He took out his emerald flute in preparation to defend himself."All I did was have a drink with River a few days ago. Why are you acting so rashly toward me?" Yara sounded puzzled about this.River was the one who had bad intentions toward him. Yara had found his actions disgusting but was now accused of some sort of wrongdoing instead."Stop the pretense. River's Soul Lamp has diminished. You're one of the last people to see him when he was alive, and his mind and soul mark is on you. Who else was responsible for it if it wasn't you?" Wilbur was enraged."One of the last people? Have you investigate
