“You deal the last card.”When Avery handed over the tea, Ethan grabbed her hand and used it to deal the fifth card.Everyone froze.Ethan glanced at the cards on the table and revealed his hand, saying, “Royal straight flush. I win this round.”“Damn!” Victor stood up, his eyes wide in disbelief.To the side, the South Regent and Jason were also dumbfounded, staring in shock. “Is this for real?”Snow snapped back to reality first and said in astonishment, “Avery, you really bring luck to your husband.”Avery was lucky, so her opening the final card increased the chances of drawing a good card, helping Ethan achieve a stunning comeback. Her face instantly turned red at Snow’s words.“Who would’ve thought this would happen?”Victor could not believe that he lost. At that moment, he became even more aware of the gap between Ethan and himself, or rather, the gap between everyone and Ethan.“There are many things you never thought of, but for now, pay up,” Ethan said casually.V

It would be advantageous for them to manage Breeze City.“They probably won’t sleep well tonight, but we’ll sleep soundly.”George, who was listening nearby, felt amused. Simon was obviously unaware of the seriousness of the situation. Daniel and Caleb were not the entire force behind this attack.This was just the beginning! The following questions would be even more difficult.The next day, it was the South Regent’s turn to ask questions.“Yesterday, I saw someone ask Stephen some intriguing questions. I’m interested now too. I’m quite familiar with Riveria, and I’ve been tormented for several years by the person managing Riveria. If you really did manage Riveria for three years, you should be able to answer these questions.“First, when the Grand Marshal passed away, did I come to see you? Second, you once used 500 men to defeat 30,000 of my men. How did you do that? Third, we’ve worked together several times. One time, you took half my forces. How many people did you take and

Furthermore, the South Regent’s family had always had good luck. For example, the Grand Marshal had seven chances to kill the South Regent’s father, but every time, they failed after something unexpected happened.During a fire, heavy rain fell from the sky.When they were about to annihilate the South Regent’s father’s army, internal chaos broke out in Riveria, forcing them to return to suppress the situation.Furthermore, there was also the relapse of an old illness that needed medical treatment...The people felt a lump in their throats as they read about the Grand Marshal’s past. They were so close every time, just a little bit away from destroying the South Regent’s father.It was as if fate was deliberately toying with the Grand Marshal.Due to the repeated failures and accumulated fatigue, the Grand Marshal could not hold on and passed away.“The South Regent is ruthless, and his family is so lucky. How did the person in charge of Riveria manage to defeat them in such a s

“A clear conscience?”Victor, the South Regent, and the others only felt amused when they heard Stephen say those words.After slandering Ethan, imprisoning him, stealing his identity and his achievements, then ruining Riveria like this, he had a lot of audacity to say he had a ‘clear conscience’.“We’re no match for him,” the South Regent said. He thought that his skin had become thicker and his mental endurance had increased after being tormented by Ethan for years, but he still fell short compared to Stephen.Stephen’s behavior now could not be described as shameful. He was simply completely shameless!“It doesn’t matter,” Victor chuckled. “The more confident he sounds now, the more people will support him, and the harder he’ll fall when his lies are exposed.“Every word he says now will eventually turn into bullets that he shoots at himself. We’ll still be the ones who will benefit.”The South Regent nodded in agreement.Online, things were still escalating.Thanks to Dani

Stephen nodded. “This benefits us in so many ways. Now, I can openly search for Snow and Lily. Most importantly, Ethan has no choice but to speak out. If he stays silent, I’ll keep slandering and defaming him, further ruining his reputation in the eyes of the public.”At that moment, Stephen felt slightly emotional.At the beginning of the year, everything had gone wrong for him, and he was frustrated and depressed. Unexpectedly, he got a series of good news.Lily was still alive, headquarters wanted to commend him and confirm his identity, and the public was on his side.Everything was falling into place!It was as if heaven itself was helping him seize everything from Ethan and crush him into the dirt.“If he sees this news, he’ll probably be so angry that he dies on the spot.” Stephen muttered, “It’s a shame I don’t have time to see him in person. His reaction and expression would be hilarious.”Meanwhile, in the villa on Drakthorn Ridge...“How despicable can Stephen be?” S
