Semua Bab I Married a Beautiful Boss After the Breakup: Bab 1471 - Bab 1480

As Jacob arrived, Roco struggled to his feet. He was utterly dumbfounded. How could the elegant and imposing Sylvia be this formidable? He hadn't even had a chance to react!Jacob tapped his palm with a riot baton, eyeing Roco. "Kid, you've got some nerve. You dare lay a finger on the CEO? I've lived for so many years, but I've never seen someone with such audacity. What's wrong? Is your brain full of worms?"Roco seethed with frustration. He hadn't even processed what happened before he was knocked down to the ground.A kick with high heels really hurt. How come no one could mess with the Innova Group's people?Seeing Jacob about to act, he decided to leave, to get out of this troublesome place sooner. And he made a firm resolution. 'No more talking to women this afternoon, only confrontations with men! Yeah, avoiding women should solve everything, right? I'm quite smart!'Unfortunately, Jacob blocked his path. Swinging the riot baton, he said, "You're asking for trouble by assau

In King City.These days, Julius grew increasingly uneasy. The sudden appearance of an envoy from the Hernandez family was not something he could easily dismiss. It was time to seek Lionel McClain's counsel on the matter of the aristocratic families."Concerning the aristocratic families?" Lionel appeared knowledgeable. "Have you incurred their displeasure?"Julius shook his head. "I've had no dealings with them. However, a few days back, someone claiming to be from the Hernandez family visited my home. They spoke accurately about our progenitor."It seems they intend to absorb ours."Lionel nodded thoughtfully. "I hadn't anticipated this. The ties between your Hernandez family and the aristocrats run deeper than I imagined."While time had obscured much history, Lionel knew that the Hernandezes arrived later compared to the McClains. Over time, they rose to prominence in King City, eventually becoming one of its top-tier families.Yet, Lionel hadn't realized that the Hernandez

Roco made a call to Bartholomew.The uncle and nephew shared their grievances. "Uncle Bartholomew, I don't mind admitting it to you, but it seems like Salt City is naturally against me! I've only been here for a few days, and I've been stopped three times already!"Uncle Bartholomew, do you know how I've been spending these days? It's been like living in perpetual darkness!"I'm even considering calling for backup, but it's embarrassing! I can't even handle a small place like Salt City. Won't they laugh at us?"I've noticed something, Uncle Bartholomew. Eric is versed in martial arts!"Bartholomew also vented. "My situation isn't much better than yours. Although I haven't been beaten or arrested, Julius simply doesn't buy into my approach. And Rafael, I don't even know how many benefits I've promised him. I even offered him Hernandez Corp.'s CEO position, but he refused!"It seems… he wants nothing to do with me! Roco, what's going on with these people? Do you think they suspect

Eric approached the coffee machine and leisurely brewed a cup of coffee.This scene left Roger and others dumbfounded. The force behind that slap was formidable, definitely not something an ordinary person could muster. Roger knew Eric must be versed in martial arts, with profound expertise.The fact that the Innova Group had such a talented individual didn't surprise Roger. In his view, Eric was a Hernandez, and it was only natural for him to be formidable.However, he couldn't fathom why Eric remained so composed. If Eric lacked skill, Roger would have subdued him immediately. Now, it seemed Eric had some tricks up his sleeve, appearing more skilled than Roco at least.With this in mind, he chuckled. "Eric, we're both from the Hernandez family in Lazzla. I'm Roger Hernandez, technically your elder—"Eric took a sip of coffee, glanced at Roger, and interjected, "I don't care about your surname or your origins."Pointing at the office door, he continued. "That door costs 3,000 do

Roger's arrest brought immense relief to Roco. He never expected Roger and his group to follow in his footsteps. But who could blame him?With Roger captured it was only reasonable that Roco would be blamed too. With everyone detained, there was no finger-pointing, as they were all in the same boat.Roco reached out to the Hernandez family and secured some money to bail out Roger and his companions. He felt fortunate not to have accompanied them to the Innova Group.However, their group was now missing one person, the one who had kicked down the door.Money had to be paid, and time had to be served. Civil compensation and criminal punishment did not conflict.Suppressing a smirk, Roco remarked, "Uncle Roger, didn't I warn you about the deep waters of Salt City? By the way, how did you all get caught?"Initially, he thought Roger would easily evade capture, but he was surprised to find them all detained, just like him.Roger's expression darkened. Naturally, the Hernandez family
