Semua Bab I Married a Beautiful Boss After the Breakup: Bab 1491 - Bab 1500

Eric's office was surrounded, and the people outside thought that the Hernandez family was holding Eric hostage.Hunter's face turned ugly. Listening to the shouts, he discerned it wasn't a SWAT team—the military had arrived!"A-Alvarez..." His lips trembled. "Should we surrender?"The people outside must all be armed. If they really opened fire, no matter how skilled one were, they'd end up riddled with bullets. Surrender might be the only way out.Hunter understood that.Who could endure being confronted by police with guns at any slight provocation? Even with some martial arts skills, could one beat someone with a gun? Could one beat ten? Even if one were fast, could they be faster than bullets?Alvarez looked at Eric with a grave expression. "Did you call the police?"He hated it! 'This bastard dared to call the police?!'Eric smiled. "I haven't reached the point of needing to call the police yet. You guys attacked the security guard at the entrance. He definitely called th

Investment in Salt City was still necessary and unavoidable. Generating some tax revenue and job opportunities for Salt City would be quite beneficial.However, this matter required careful consideration. What if the Hernandez family invested and didn't make a profit? How would they handle it?Besides, saving Alvarez didn't necessarily require pouring money into it. They first hired a lawyer to see if the legal route could resolve the issue.-Jacob had become quite clever. He first went to the hospital to obtain a medical report. Losing two teeth was no minor injury. He also hired a lawyer and demanded 150,000 dollars in compensation, including emotional damages.In his words: "I was working diligently, and you slapped me as soon as you came, sending me flying four or five meters away and knocking out several of my teeth. Do you know how much that slap hurt my fragile soul? It's not just physical assault—it has caused immense psychological damage."The Hernandez family's lawyers

Lora fancied herself fearless. She believed in the triumph of justice over evil, that light would dispel darkness. But this was always the most optimistic perspective.Regardless of the era or circumstances, darkness and light, justice and evil coexisted— neither could be absent. When old evils vanished, new ones inevitably arose, just as dawn dispelled darkness, only for darkness to return.Lora didn't know how to respond.Was she afraid? Undoubtedly.Someone as formidable as Eric still had troublemakers seeking him out, proving they were truly wicked. But to say she wouldn't dare approach Eric? That would be untrue.Yet, Lora dared not say that.Sylvia smiled. "I know what fascinates you about Eric. Women admire the strong, just as beauties admire heroes. Actually, this is understandable, but the price to pay, I imagine, is not something an ordinary person can bear."The Pentras slashed your face and neck back then. Perhaps you see it as a severe injury, but let me tell you: y

Upon arriving at the company, Sylvia attended to some business matters before promptly entering Eric's office."Come with me for a moment," she said.Eric was puzzled but didn't ask, following behind her.Exiting the premises of the Innova Group, several cars trailed behind them."Where are we headed?" Eric asked.Sylvia glanced at him."You'll find out soon enough," she replied cryptically.The air was filled with a sense of intrigue.Before long, Sylvia led a group, including Eric, to Salt City's largest luxury car market. They were accompanied by the Locke brothers.Eric understood—Sylvia had brought him there to purchase a car."With so many cars at home, do we really need to buy another one?" Eric couldn't help but feel it was excessive.Just one trip there could cost a fortune!The perspective remained unchanged.Sylvia smiled. "What do men love if not cars? Well, and beautiful women, but I can't fulfill that part for you. However, I can buy you a car."All the cars

As they signed the contract, several Catellonians cast provocative glances at Eric.Eric, however, remained composed. He didn't know these Catellonians, but he couldn't help but wonder if they were targeting him specifically. Why else would they buy the same cars he showed interest in? Even the ones he had his eye on earlier were now sold.There must be some history between them for things to escalate to this point.He watched as the Catellonians signed the contract and made their payments.The process went smoothly.The Locke brothers were starting to get impatient, but Eric gestured for them to calm down. Smirking, he asked the salesperson, "Surely, your dealership has more than just these cars?""You're right, Mr. Johnson," the salesperson replied. "This is just our flagship store. We have another branch nearby with slightly pricier options. Mr. Johnson, Ms. Williams, please follow me."This added a new layer of amusement.Matthew chuckled heartily and addressed the Catell
