Chapter 206
In the luxurious private room
The earth-shaking music outside was so loud it could give people heart attacks.
The silence in the room was so intense that it caused people’s hearts to palpitate.
Dressed in a black suit, Vincent lounged in the darkness, his silk shirt’s neckline wide open, a silver necklace undulating with his solid chest muscles. His slender hands held a red wine glass, leisurely sipping its contents, while his heaven-defying long legs were casually crossed.
A drop of dark red liquid trickled from the corner of his lips, which he wiped away with his finger. His expression was languid and unbridled, yet his phoenix eyes held a glint of coldness that kept strangers at bay.
It was as if plunging into an icy abyss a thousand feet deep!
In the private room, Vincent’s subordinates stood densely packed in a row.
Vincent raised his head, quickly drinking the red wine in his glass, and then snapped his fingers.

The bodyguards, in unison, dispersed. Kneeling on the ground, a man who had been beaten black and blue, with his facial features dislocated, was presented before Vincent.
“Mister Anderson… I was wrong… please…” The man’s teeth were shattered, and he was not only breathing heavily, but also drooling and bleeding.
“Shame, your blood is spilled on the ground.”
“Do you
know how pricey the carpet in my private room is? You couldn’t even cover the cost if you sold all your organs and lungs for a price.”
“Mr.Anderson!”
Vincent kicked the man away as he crawled in front of him.
“Mr. Anderson… I’ve been with you for many years… I’ve always been faithful to you… This time, I was perplexed… Yes, it was Second Master Huo who threatened me! But he didn’t ask me to do anything… He only said that I had to tell him where you were.”
Second Master Huo was Vincent’s uncle, he was the only younger brother of Vincent’s father.
When Vincent was seven, his father’s plane crash left them in a difficult situation. Fortunately, his father had previously transferred all the shares and property to him and his mother, protecting them from any potential harm.
Although Vincent was the eldest grandson, the position of president that had belonged to his father was now held by his second uncle, with Anderson Group and Old Master in power.
As time passed, the true nature of people’s hearts became increasingly evident. He never anticipated that his second uncle, who had wept the most bitterly at his father’s graveside, was actually a sly and deceitful person. On the surface, his uncle seemed to be looking after the family, but in reality, he had been plotting against him in secret.
Madam Anderson and Zoey, both weak and ignorant, were unaware of all this.
Vincent, as the pillar of the family, withstood all the pressure without ever mentioning it even to his closest brother, Joseph.
“It appears that you are quite adept at convincing yourself. You are aware that it is the elderly man beside me. Thus, you wish to use your advanced years to gain favor with both sides and secure more coffins for yourself, correct?”
“Heh,” Vincent released his grip and the red wine glass shattered. His cold gaze made people feel a chill. “I don’t know if you’re alive to make money or not.”
The man kept bowing, causing the luxurious carpeted floor to thud loudly!
“You deceived me. It’s no big deal. As a leader, who doesn’t have a couple of disloyal people around them? How does that demonstrate their success?”
Vincent leaned forward, his broad shoulders and waist casting a beautiful shadow.
His long eyelashes drooping, his eyes half-closed, the miserable man’s lips slowly curving as if he saw the death god raising a scythe behind him.
“But you’re mistaken. Since you’ve been untruthful to me, you should keep it up. Only then will you not spoil my temper. Your little life can last longer.”
“Mr. Anderson… I beg you… The man was shivering and almost peed himself.
“I haven’t seen my second uncle in ages,” Vincent said teasingly, narrowing his long and narrow eyes. “As a nephew, I shouldn’t be so neglectful of etiquette. Yoona.”
From another dark corner emerged a coldly elegant woman, her deep V neckline accentuating her presence. She was
Vincent’s ever-present secretary…
“Mr. Anderson.”
“Chop off his blabbering tongue!” Vincent abruptly stopped smiling.
“Yes.”
“No way! Stop! Ah! Oh!”
Yoona was expressionless as she raised the knife and, with a speed faster than a butcher in a market, cut off the man’s tongue.
Vincent rose slowly, his left hand in his pocket and his right hand’s five fingers entwined in his black hair.
“Once you’re done, send it to my second uncle. Consider it a gift of wine and food for him.”
On the opposite side of the room, there was another ludicrous scene.
Zoey ordered people to connect all the hundreds of cameras in ACE to the big screen of the room, allowing them to watch and enjoy as the camera followed Annie to switch the camera angle.
The girl, flustered and panic-stricken, was like a helpless deer lost in the forest.
Zoey and her friends were reveling in the show.
Annie, reckless and like a headless fly, was pulled by drunken guests, and when a man stretched out his hand to her, she managed to avoid it, but not without being pointed at and scolded.
Everyone laughed heartily, even more excited than they would be watching a comedy movie!
“Hahaha! This person is so funny! Why is she still the same as when she was in junior high? Has she stopped growing? Hahaha!”
“Sister Skyler, I’m really intrigued. Where did you stash that putrid bear?” Zoey gestured at the screen and chuckled.
“I hid it in…”
Annie laughed and whispered a few words into Zoey’s ear.
After hearing this, Zoey burst into laughter, swaying back and forth.
“To consider that you could come up hahaha…”
with it! That idiot wouldn’t be able to locate it even if she stumbled upon it at sunrise,
Annie almost tumbled off the bottom of the table as she flipped through it, her arms and legs bruised from the multiple times she had been accidentally kicked by the guests.
She stood there, trembling, her arms wrapped tightly around herself. Her gaze met the strangers’ strange stares, her mind blank and her breathing becoming labored.
The light and shadow of the audience shifted abruptly.
Colorful paper floated up in the sky like flying flowers and fell down.
Everyone cheered and moved their bodies in the dance pool, swaying their hearts and dancing wildly!
“My little bear… my precious little bear…”
Annie, leaning over the crowd, cared only about her toy, searching for the bear’s whereabouts.
Suddenly, her little face full of sweat and tears collided with a warm “barrier”.
Her nose was sour and numb, and the tears in the corners of her eyes splashed out.
“I apologize…”
Annie bowed her head deeply and was about to flee when the advancing “wall” barred her path.
“I’m sorry… I’m really sorry!”
“Sis of vegetable flower?”
Annie’s heart beat strongly as she slowly raised her clear eyes, her small nose covered.
What met her eyes was Vincent, who was slightly tipsy.
“Am I dreaming? Is it really you?”
In the next second, his eyes froze. He opened his arms wide and embraced Annie, his left arm around her waist and his right hand cradling the back of her neck, shielding her with his chest.
If these people with adrenaline went crazy, the dance pool would become too chaotic and they would not care about it, potentially hurting her accidentally.
Annie’s heart raced like a little deer, and her trembling hand pressed against Vincent’s clothing.
She wanted to push him away, yet, having been alone in the night with no one to turn to, she now found herself relying on him. All she wanted was to be in his embrace for a moment, even if it was just for a second or two…
This shouldn’t be the case.
He was a good person, and he was also Zoey’s older brother..
When the people in the pool saw “Young Master Anderson” arrive, they gasped in astonishment as if they had witnessed a deity descending from the heavens!
Countless men cried and women screamed at the sight of this face.
Especially these phoenix eyes, they were renowned for their seductive, soul-captivating, and lustful power throughout Medo!
At this moment, the pair of soul-stealing phoenix eyes were fixedly staring at the girl in his arms.
They seemed isolated from everyone else, with only each other in their sights.
“Did you come to this type of place by yourself?” Vincent asked in a hushed tone.
理
Annie nodded and shook her head.
“What happened? Tell me,” the man said, his eyes darkening for a moment, yet his voice remained gentle.
“My, my little bear… is lost…”
Annie had not initially intended to speak, but when he posed the question, her grievances could no longer be contained and tears streamed down her face.
“Brother Huo, the little bear is missing… It was given to me by sister-in-law… My favorite little bear…”
