Upon seeing his father's body, Dingley Byng let out a cry of shock.
He could not believe that a simple rear-end collision had resulted in the demise of the entire Byng family due to his own greed.
James Mester glanced at Dingley Byng and said calmly, "Take care of him for me."
With that, James Mester turned and left.
Dingley Byng stood there, speechless.
He knew that the outcome was sealed.
His father was dead, and the Byng family was finished!
...
The next day, astonishing news spread across the East Coast.
The Byng family, a newly prominent family on the East Coast, had vanished overnight.
No one knew how the Byng family had disappeared, only that everyone, including the head of the family, Davin Byng, had gone missing.
Furthermore, all of the Byng family's assets had been seized.
Sources revealed that the downfall of the Byng family was due to the young master of the Byng family offending the King of the East Coast.
Upon hearing this news, all the families on the East Coast were astounded.
In no time, all the families on the East Coast warned their descendants not to cause trouble outside, to avoid meeting the same fate as the Byng family.
How did the Byng family meet their end?
Was it not because of Dingley Byng's insatiable greed, attempting to extort the King of the East Coast?
With this cautionary tale, which young heir on the East Coast would dare to cause trouble in the future?
The King of the East Coast!
Could anyone afford to provoke him?
Meanwhile, the fearsome King of the East Coast, Chris Shelby, was acting as a homemaker.
From doing laundry to mopping the floor, he was busy and enjoying himself.
Suddenly, Juliette, who was lying on the sofa watching TV, turned her head and said, "Chris, how about we go shopping together? We've been cooped up at home every day, and it's starting to feel moldy."
At these words, Chris Shelby couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Did he not know how terrifying it was for a woman to go shopping?
Juliette asking him to go shopping was definitely not well-intentioned; she probably saw him as free labor. Chris Shelby would not fall for that.
Seeing Chris Shelby's refusal, Juliette pouted.
She turned to Esther and asked with a smile, "Esther, how about we go shopping together?"
Esther nodded and said, "Sure, I need to buy some things as well."
Huh?
Chris Shelby was dumbfounded.
He never expected Esther to agree to Juliette's request.
The nightmare was about to begin!
Satisfied with Chris Shelby's response, Juliette asked with a smile, "So, Chris, are you coming shopping with us?"
Seeing Juliette's smug expression, Chris Shelby was speechless.
Even Esther had agreed to go shopping. Shouldn't he, as her husband, accompany her?
Moreover, it was a critical time. What if something happened to Esther while she was out?
With these thoughts, Chris Shelby reluctantly said, "Alright."
"Yay!"
Excited by Chris Shelby's agreement, Juliette cheered.
"Esther, let's go change into some nice clothes!"
With that, Esther and Juliette went to change.
Chris Shelby shook his head, feeling frustrated.
He couldn't understand why women always had to change clothes when shopping.
Why did they enjoy shopping as a sport so much?
