Vera Andrade

When Jason Hart was working as a foreman, he often drank with unfamiliar people, considering it a routine affair.

To him, it was just casual chatter, and he didn't take it seriously at all.

Until now.

He didn't realize that his identity had completely changed, and every word and action he made represented his family, entangling multiple interests. He was no longer the carefree worker who didn't care about anything.

The bar was noisy with music, and the lighting was dim.

After chatting nonsense for a while, they accidentally stirred up a big misunderstanding.

Jason Hart was completely unaware of this.

He thought Liam was just concerned about his family's business, so he asked so many questions.

When Liam went out to make a call, the little punks who usually played with him one by one toasted Jason Hart.

Speaking of power and influence,

Jason Hart's family was not only one of the top families in the gambling city but also owned several outstanding private hospitals in the city. These hospitals were all owned by his mother, and their business interests spanned multiple industries. You never knew when there might be an opportunity for cooperation.

So these young people were naturally polite and respectful, quite different from when Liam was present.

Craft beers were served.

With alcohol content in the double digits, after drinking two or three bottles, Jason Hart started feeling a bit tipsy.

Seeing the guy across from him finish a bottle of wine, he gave him face, swaying the bottle and spinning it directly, putting on a three-second bottle flipping performance.

Even the girls at the next table applauded when they saw this scene.

The colored spotlights swayed around, and several girls were hugging steel poles, twisting their bodies.

The bar was getting more and more crowded, quickly filling up.

After Liam finished his call and returned to the bar, he felt a refreshing feeling of clearing away the clouds and seeing the sky.

Since he got to know Jason Hart, Jason Hart's family business had always overshadowed his own.

It took nearly ten years for Liam to gradually narrow the gap between the two families until this opportunity came along, which made Liam feel like he was the protagonist, and Liam's time was coming...

On the other side,

After Golden Fat chatted with his son, he pondered for a long time and drank some whisky to calm his nerves.

If Liam liked to treat Jason Hart as a nemesis, comparing everything, it was actually because he was influenced by his family environment, learning from Golden Fat.

For so many years, he had been suppressed by Jason Hart's family.

There were too many lost orders and losses suffered.

Golden Fat had a bulky figure but a sharp mind. He was a cunning man who liked to overthink things and take a roundabout approach to everything.

However, the more cunning one was, the easier it was to fall into a misunderstanding.

With the preliminary information from his son and directly obtained from Jason Hart, it didn't seem like baseless rumors.

Moreover, combined with the recent efforts of his competitor George to raise money everywhere and the setbacks in the Singapore project, it made Golden Fat, a business tycoon, subconsciously believe that the news was quite reliable.

He also concluded that Jason Hart's family must be facing a serious problem.

He regarded the supposed loan to increase the stake of the partners as a smokescreen deliberately released by George, intending to raise money for other purposes.

After making a few calls to friends in Singapore and learning that George had offended some people and the project payments were temporarily withheld, Golden Fat became even more excited!

He keenly realized that this might be an opportunity, profitable and advantageous!

After much deliberation, considering taking advantage of the situation, he naturally set his sights on the several properties held by Jason Hart's family, especially the large project in Mid-Levels in Hongcheng, which had invested nearly twenty to thirty billion...

Not long after,

Golden Fat took the initiative to call Jason Hart's father.

He openly expressed his intention to buy George's shares in the properties at seventy percent of the market price.

Meanwhile, George, who was drinking with friends, was slightly drunk.

Upon hearing this, he was completely confused about what was going on, but he was almost outraged.

Out of nowhere, someone came up and offered to buy his hundred-dollar bill for seventy bucks, with such a condescending tone. Anyone would be upset, especially the petty George.

George didn't hesitate to reply, "Are you crazy? Sell your own uncle! My business is doing just fine, thanks for your three million!"

Even over the phone, Golden Fat could feel the spit flying toward him.

But he didn't mind; instead, he smiled.

After hanging up the phone,

This father of Liam lit a cigar and muttered to himself with a smile:

"Still trying to fool me! Raising a foolish son who doesn't even know when he's being sold. Today, you take my three million, tomorrow I'll take your three billion. You're not giving up, are you? Let's see what you've got to fight me with!"

Golden Fat rarely found back his passion for investment.

He was determined this time to show George a bit of color.

He immediately called a familiar financial reporter from the newspaper and asked him to seriously investigate Jason Hart's family business recently, trying to dig out all the insider information about the project payments and the withdrawal of capital from the property partners, and publish them all.

In Golden Fat's view,

George could still barely manage to keep the money flowing by relying on his surface charm, personal connections, and substantial reserves.

However,

Once people found out that Jason Hart's family business was in trouble, even the banks wouldn't dare lend money to George anymore.

When Jason Hart's family's cash flow was cut off, who wouldn't expect him to surrender?

Thinking of this, Golden Fat felt extremely comfortable.

Even if he couldn't benefit from it, stepping on George's foot would still make him very happy...

A little storm is about to come.

And the initiator of all this, Jason Hart, is the most clueless.

While drinking beer, he also tasted several expensive whiskies.

Thinking his alcohol tolerance was still the same as before, he accidentally drank too much, and was pulled onto the stage by Bucktooth, dancing with other customers.

At the same time,

On the second floor near the window, there was a white girl with brown hair who occasionally glanced at Jason Hart.

Judging by her expression, it was obvious she didn't like him, rather, she seemed irritated.

If Jason Hart saw her, he would probably recognize her. This white girl was none other than the one he accidentally saw while she was bathing.

Bucktooth mentioned this incident during a computer class last time.

At that time, in order to smooth over the trouble caused by his son, his father had to donate a hundred computers. Now, those computers at Rose High School were donated by his father.

This white girl's name was Vera Andrade.

Her ancestors were Portuguese nobles, who came to the gambling city to do business since the 1920s and had been rooted here for more than seventy years.

By Vera Andrade's generation, they were basically similar to the locals of the gambling city, speaking fluent Chinese. Her family operated businesses such as auction houses, casinos, hotels, galleries, and wineries.

As for this bar, it was the first property her father gave her as a gift for her coming-of-age ceremony, managed by professional managers, and Vera occasionally came to check on it.

Today, she happened to run into Jason Hart.

Just thinking about how she was taking a shower after a physical education class, and Jason Hart was staring at her sneakily, Vera Andrade couldn't help but feel angry.

The so-called Four Beauties, she was the last one.

With her small face and big eyes, her pupils were deep blue.

With a slender neck and tall figure, she was like a princess from a fairy tale, not just someone filling up the numbers on the list.

Leaving aside her family background, just based on her appearance, Vera Andrade was very qualified. She was often praised since childhood, saying that her face had been kissed by God.

Whether God had actually kissed her, no one knew.

But she had indeed been seen naked by Jason Hart while she was taking a shower, and many classmates in school already knew about this secret, causing her to lose face.

This directly forced Vera Andrade to feign illness. From the beginning of this school year until now, she hadn't had the face to go to school again and chose to study at home.

Meeting again inevitably made her itch with anger.

In front of everyone,

Jason Hart, who was going crazy with alcohol, forcibly snatched the guitar from the guitarist of the band.

Jason Hart could indeed play the guitar.

He had even participated in campus singing competitions in his past life.

As soon as he started playing, he went off-key, attracting a wave of angry shouts...
