“You won’t touch a single penny of the Quinns’ money!” Simon refused to compromise. To him, apologizing and paying compensation would ruin the family’s reputation, especially paying compensation to ordinary people. Having someone from the Quinns step up to talk to normal civilians was already an honor for them.Stephen said in a low voice, “Fine, I won’t touch it. I’ll come up with something myself.” Then, he turned and left, not wanting to say another word to Simon.“Stop!” Simon shouted after him, but Stephen did not listen. He had made up his mind and was convinced that compensation was the only solution. Continuing to cover things up, avoiding responsibility, or using the money from Breeze City to address the issue would not solve the root problem. Since it had all started with him, he should be the one to end it!Bam! Stephen returned to his room and slammed the door shut.Simon heard the door and clenched his fists. He could not understand why Stephen had become so uncontro

Stephen felt miserable. Although he knew that he had framed Ethan first and even imprisoned the latter in Drakthorn Ridge, he still asked, “Do you have no shred of compassion?”Ethan felt like he had just heard a joke. “You reaped the rewards, became the Grand Marshal’s mentee, married Rachel Lowe, and took over Riveria. You don’t need compassion. You’re just trying to shift the consequences of your incompetence onto me.”Stephen fell silent.“You long for love, and you long for someone to help you when you’re in trouble, but here’s the truth: to be loved is to be understood, and those who truly understood you and were willing to help you are all dead because of you.”Stephen’s body trembled.“The happiest time of your life is over. You can never go back. When the Quinn family helped you, there were many problems that you couldn’t solve. Now that they won’t help you, you’ll face even more challenges you can’t overcome. Your fate is already sealed. You can either die by trial or ta

Everyone looked eager. When Stephen saw that no one blamed him, he could not help but sigh in relief. He thought to himself, ‘I made the right decision.’After sending them all off, he returned home, feeling satisfied. ‘Maybe I’ll finally get a good night’s sleep tonight,’ he thought.Meanwhile, Simon found out that Stephen sold his villa for 3 billion dollars.“He’s gone insane.” Simon was furious. “That is a villa at Heavens Estate. Only the elite can afford to buy it. How could he actually sell it to compensate commoners? What an ingrate! I can’t let this news spread.”If people found out that the Quinn family spent 8 billion on a villa for Stephen’s birthday gift, it would surely become a point of discussion. Furthermore, the family’s reputation would be ruined upon the news about the heir of the Quinns being forced to sell his property because he did not have enough money.At that thought, Simon hurriedly found the person who bought the villa.“I’m Simon Quinn,” he said. “Yo

Since it was Victor who came, Simon could not play any tricks and had no choice but to complete the transaction and watch Victor leave.Simon felt extremely frustrated. Although 8 billion was nothing to the Quinns, he had been threatened and brought shame to the family.He had prepared thoroughly and planned to capture the buyer during the transaction, but the other party had clearly anticipated it. Now, he had failed to regain his dignity and lost even more due to his miscalculation.While he felt vexed, there was a smile on Victor’s face.“Simon isn’t that great.” Victor had come of his own accord because he knew that Simon could not swallow the insult of being threatened. Thus, he decisively took the risk and showed up, foiling Simon’s plan.“He must be furious now, but there’s nothing he can do about it. No wonder Stephen is so useless. It’s hereditary. Looks like Stephen really is his biological son.”He got into the car, feeling slightly emotional. He had been hiding abroad

Victor took 500 million and instructed his subordinate to return the remaining 2.5 billion to Simon, saying, “Some of the money has already been spent, so only 2.5 billion could be recovered.”Simon nodded. “Good job.”He was not particularly concerned about the money. After all, to the Quinns, 3 billion dollars was not much different from 30 dollars. His only goal was to retrieve the money from the hands of the commoners. Recovering 2.5 billion was enough to achieve that goal.After the staff left, he took out his phone and called Stephen.“My son.” Simon was in a jovial mood. To him, Stephen had followed his instructions and acted decisively, managing to retrieve the money in just one week. That was his obedient son who did not disappoint him!Simon laughed and said, “You did well. You did exceptionally well!”Stephen had just finished drinking and was still feeling groggy. He asked in confusion, “What? What did I do?” He glanced at the beer bottle. What was good about drinking
