Vivi slammed the accelerator and said angrily, “You jerk!” The men in the black car behind them did not expect Philip to pull that
either, but it was too late by the time they tried to stop! More than ten armed cops rushed out of the station and surrounded both
cars! Vivi pouted and crossed her arms in front of her chest, getting out of her car in a huff. She made a call and looked in the
direction Philip had disappeared into, frowning as she muttered, “Just you wait, I’ll definitely find you!” The three would-be
assassins were in much worse shape. They were dragged out of the car and pinned onto the ground, babbling in Thai. As for
Philip, he managed to shake them all off and saunter back to the villa, whistling away. … At the same time, in a fancy presidential
suite somewhere in Capital City… “Damn it! Those three are useless! They couldn’t even capture one man!” Marcus Quaid threw
a fit, his expression stormy as he stood before the floor-to-ceiling window. He looked at the city’s night lights outside the window

slowly approached the shore! It was the Quaids’ private cruise liner from Capital City, with their name spray-painted in red on the
hull! A man in a white suit stood on the deck, looking at the distant skyscrapers in Riverdale. As he beheld the prosperous new
land, his eyes gleamed with an unknown light! The man was none other than the second son of the Quaid family, the man who
had attended that banquet not too long ago-- Marcus Quaid! Half a month had passed since then, and the cold aura around him
was even more evident now. His eyes were bright, as though burning with fury! What about his injuries? Thanks to the medical
marvels in Capital City, he had long since recovered. “I’m back, and this time, I’ll definitely make you lot pay!” The man said
viciously. Although his tone was relatively calm, the killing intent behind his words was barely veiled, forming an invincible
pressure around him! Behind him, there was an old man in a gray suit, his white brows blowing slightly in the wind. He had a thin
face and narrowed eyes. At first glance, he may look friendly, but the way his aura seemed at one with his surroundings made
him seem formidable indeed! “Young Master Marcus, your father warned you not to act too rashly here at Riverdale. You must
watch yourself.” “I know, Uncle Len, but I just can’t let this slide.” Marcus swept his gaze across the skyscrapers before him, his
gaze ice-cold. “No matter what, I must collect my dues! I can’t let them shame our family like that! Don’t worry, Uncle Len, I won’t
do anything that will jeopardize the family’s plans.” With that reassurance, the old man behind Marcus protested no more. He
simply nodded and said, “Then I await your orders, Young Master.” Marcus looked at the tallest building in front of him, his eyes
shining even brighter! … The past few days, Blake Michaels had been busy with his company’s master plan. All of his companies
in Riverdale were wrapped up in these preparations! Early that morning, Blake brought his son and subordinates to the port,
where they awaited the second son of the Quaid empire, Marcus Quaid! When he saw that young man standing on the deck from

afar, Blake’s heart suddenly tightened in his chest! The last time, Blake could not help even though he was the Quaids’ business
partner here in Riverdale. As a result, the Quaids were already suspicious of him and his family. If he could not aid Marcus
properly this time, his plans for the future may just go up in smoke! Blake had been planning all this for a long time now. He
wanted to use this opportunity to monopolize Riverdale’s entire pharmaceutical industry so that he could bolster and strengthen
his family’s position in the national economy. However, the previous incident showed him that Beacon still had a few aces up their
sleeve. If he wanted to take down Beacon once and for all, he would need to make use of the chance he had now that the
Quaids were here in Riverdale for business negotiations!
Besides, Blake knew that he had handled that matter with Shangri-La very badly. Madam Wallis even
called him over to issue him a stern warning. As for Yale and his fraternity, Blake could not do anything
about them right now. Madam Wallis said she would handle that herself. In fact, she was the one who
asked him to greet Marcus today too. She was going to start plotting Beacon’s downfall!
