Chapter 728



Justin was slightly stunned to hear this and unconsciously said, “I don’t know.”

“Okay.”

Justin replied, “Is something wrong?”.

“Not really. I just wanted to find out since Dad sounded so mysterious.”

Nora didn’t hesitate. After all, when Ian and the others mentioned King downstairs, she realized that Eagle was Joel, not Justin. This meant Justin might not be in the group.

… It was rather unfortunate. So, shouldn’t she bring this up to shake it up?

Thinking about this, Nora changed the subject. “Are you really okay? If you need help, tell me directly.”

“No, it’s fine.”

Justin thought she was going to ask him for help. But even if she wanted to seek King’s help, he couldn’t reveal his identity.

It would be too dangerous if his identity were revealed.

Perhaps, instead of helping Nora, he would end up hurting her.

This was also the reason why he had lived in New York for so many years alone as Justin Hunt. After all, no one would associate the person controlling the number one family in New York with King.

The number one power broker in New York had always lived in public. Wherever he went, his exact whereabouts could be found.

g Ɐ lnσ ν𝓮 ℓs․com, your storytelling home Thinking about this, Justin looked down and said, “From the legends I’ve heard about King, I learned that if you want his help on something, he’s a very easy person to deal with. You can have Joel relay your thoughts to him.”

Nora looked at him.

She thought she could relay the message herself without asking Joel, but decided not to continue this conversation. She changed the subject again. “How has Xander been the last few days?”

After testing Xander’s genetic serum without sleep for three days and injecting him with the drug, Nora went to sleep for three days after checking that all his vitals were normal.

When she woke up, she was very concerned about Xander’s health.

“…He’s fine.”

Justin thought about it and responded cautiously.

Nora immediately sensed the meaning. “Does that mean something happened?”.

Justin sighed and rubbed his forehead. “I just tested her intelligence and noticed… that it has increased. His intelligence is even higher than Pete’s and Cherry’s.”

Pete was an extremely intelligent child. Otherwise, he would not have learned the Math Olympiad questions at the age of five. Those questions were very difficult even for college students.

Cherry was also a representative of high intelligence. She could not calm down. Nora could only let her play to divert her attention and make her hyperactivity improve over the years.

Unlike the two of them, Xander had always lived next door to Trueman. Nora didn’t know him very well.

Did his intelligence surpass Pete’s and Cherry’s?

Nora was silent for a moment before finally sighing deeply. “Genetic medicine is really a good thing.” Justin nodded as well. “This temptation is really too hard for humans to resist. Who doesn’t want to strengthen their body? Who doesn’t want to have exceptional intelligence? We will definitely face many temptations in the future.”

At this point, he suddenly asked, “Nora, if you successfully find V16, will you take it?”

Nora curved her lips and smiled. “I’m already one of the smartest people in the world, why bother? Besides, humans should respect evolution. The current level of human technology and research is not sufficient to support the sudden arrival of highly intelligent humans.”

Hearing her words, Justin smiled. “What if that genetic serum really succeeds and can extend life?”

Nora was fine.

She had been a Buddhist all her life. It was enough for her to have enough money to survive and to have her family members by her side. Besides, even if she passed away, she would only be sleeping eternally.

He did not panic.

He waved his hand nonchalantly. “I don’t care. I’ll change my clothes. Let’s go see Xander.”

“Okay.”

The two stood facing each other. Nora gave him a long look before pointing to the door. “Aren’t you going out?”

Justin smiled. “Our kids are five now. We’re a couple – do you still care about this?”

Nora: “…”

This man was getting more and more brazen.

He turned and seemed to be heading for the coat check. As Justin stepped forward, planning to follow her, she suddenly turned and kicked him in the chest.

Justin stepped back unconsciously and reached out to block, but Nora gave him two kicks that pushed him backward and straight out the door.

The next moment, Smash!

The door slammed shut. Nora’s cold, gravelly voice came from inside. “Behave yourself. Wait outside.”

“… Tsk.”

Justin looked down at his hand and couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Nora really was shy.

A minute later, Nora put on a black windbreaker and went outside.

She seemed to prefer black. This coat was especially wide on her. Paired with her slender figure, she looked especially elegant.

As Justin watched her, his eyes darkened.

The two of them went downstairs and waved to Ian before heading out.

On her way to the Hunts to see Xander, Nora turned on her phone. Secretly, she made her way to his side and opened the Imperial League chat group. She had originally planned to see what kind of investment opportunities there were, but as soon as she logged on, she saw Bear taunting Eagle….

Bear: [If you don’t have money, don’t come and make trouble next time Eagle].

Phillip came to his senses. He knew he had been tricked into making a $45 billion bid, but he didn’t dare take his anger out on King. So he turned it on Joel?

In keeping with his brother’s character, he would definitely ignore it.

However, when Nora came out, she had seen that Ian had logged into her account, so the eagle of the group was now Ian. If it was Ian, then…

Indeed, there was a discussion in the group.

Eagle: [Why, are you getting angry out of humiliation? If you don’t want to buy that 5% of the shares, you can transfer it to me. Do you regret buying it? You can’t afford to lose, but you don’t dare to argue with King. Do you only know how to talk big here?]

Nora: “…”

Ian’s words were really provocative, but they were satisfying!

Bear: [Heh, King sold me his shares because he knew you didn’t have the money. You don’t have to sow discord here. I’ll never have any objection to King. King must know you can’t afford them, that’s why he sold his shares to me].

Eagle: [Hehe, 45 billion for 5% of the stock. Only a fool would buy that. What are you so proud of?].

Bear immediately seized the opportunity: [What do you mean only a fool would buy it? Are you saying King cheated me? You’re the one being disrespectful to King!].

Nora: “!”

It was all over.

Ian was counterattacked!

In the end, King had sold his shares to Philip and not Eagle. This proved his attitude. In addition, King had just received Philip’s $45 billion. He was definitely biased in Phillip’s favor.

Phillip had only made a few casual comments. Would King have something against Ian?

King had a high status in the Imperial League and his words were definitive. How was Ian going to speak up in the group in the future?

Nora frowned.

Ian clearly sensed this as well and said in the group, [I have no objection to Mr. King. You’re the one who started the discussion today].

Bear: [You called me a fool for making the deal yesterday. Aren’t you saying King cheated me? King, say something fair].

Let King talk?

If King were to speak, he would definitely side with Bear!

Was there any need to think about that, who would admit that he had cheated others by doing business?

Nora pursed her lips and thought about how to say something in the group to put an end to this matter. However, Phillip began to appear aggressive.

Bear: [The purchase of 5% of the Hunt shares for $45 billion is indeed a few times the market value. But Mr. King definitely has no intention of extorting me. Isn’t it all because you were bidding against me here? This is a fair transaction. The highest bidder gets it. How can you judge Mr. King like that].

Nora: “!”

Eagle: [I have no doubts about Mr. King’s fairness. You don’t have to sow discord here].

Bear: [Who is sowing discord here? Who brought it up in the group first? Mr. King, what do you think].

At that point, someone came out to give the reason. Rabbit: [I swear the highest bidder took it yesterday. There is no injustice. Mr. King is absolutely fair in handling the situation].

Wolf: [Mr. King is absolutely fair].

A large number concurred.

Finally, Bear sent another message: [Did you see that? Eagle, you should apologize to Mr. King and me].

The matter heated up. While Nora was anxious, the car arrived at the Hunts.

Nora was still thinking about what to do. At that moment, King, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly reacted.
