Chapter 101
“You make me laugh!” George sneered mercilessly. “Andrius, can you stop showing off your stupidity? As long as Axel Cloverfield is not a fool, by the time he transferred his assets and money away, he’d already be in another country.
“With him and his money out of the country, not even the cops can find him. Yet, you are here acting like a clown, calling it not a big deal. Are you kidding me?”
It was obvious.
Dick looked at him in disdain as well. “Andrius, if you can get the money back, I’ll write my name backward.”
Even Harry shook his head helplessly when he heard Andrius. He had just called Axel, and judging from the man’s arrogance, he must have already fled the country. Even though he wanted to get the money back, it was practically impossible.
Andrius glanced at George and Dick and said, “How I get the money back is my business. It has nothing to do with you two. Please lease Dream’s Waterfront.”
George, Dick, and their families were furious.
Dick looked at Master Crestfall, but the man did not say a word. He then walked up to Andrius and warned him, “Andrius, you have three more days to act like a fool. In three days…”
He pointed at Andrius‘ nose and continued coldly, “If you don’t blame me for being rude to you and your family.”
He then left with his family.

“Three days. You have three days, Andrius,” George also threatened him when he left with his family.
With George and Dick gone, only Andrius, Luna, and Harry were left at Dream’s Waterfront.
“I’m sorry…” Luna’s eyes teared up. She went up to Andrius and said, “If I had listened to you and Halle, it wouldn’t… It’s all my fault! It’s all my fault!”
She started to sob silently before she could finish talking.
She had been holding back her tears since her uncles‘ arrival. Now with them gone, she broke down in tears.
Seeing Luna bathing in her own tears, Andrius swallowed his words and consoled her, ” Actually, it’s really no big deal. You don’t need to feel bad.”
Luna looked at him and sighed.
Just like George said, as long as Axel and his father had brains, they would have already
left the country when they transferred their assets and money away.
Not even the police had the confidence to get the money back, let alone Andrius who was from the mountains.
He was just saying it to comfort her and to buy her a few more days.
“Don’t worry. I will give you the money that I promised you even if I have to sell my house. Not a penny less, not a penny more,” Luna assured him before she returned to her room, dispirited.
Andrius found it amusing, but he could not bring himself to laugh. The woman might be stupid, but she tended to keep her promise.
Andrius left Dream’s Waterfront and headed to Noir’s garage.
“Andy?” Noir tossed him a cigarette and asked, “What is it this time?”
He finally realized that ever since Andrius was involved with the woman from the Crestfalls, he would come to the garage more often than ever.
Andrius said straightforwardly, “Noir, check and see where Axel Cloverfield and his father are.”
“Axel Cloverfield…”
Noir knew that the man had beef with Andrius. He tapped his chest confidently and said, “Leave it to me.”
Through the internal connections of the Lycantroops, Noir quickly got a hold of Axel and his father’s location. “Andy, Axel Cloverfield and his father are at the Grand Western Rivermoon Hotel of Sumeria, but they checked in under a fake ID of John McKenzie.”
Andrius smiled.
The father and son did not flee the country immediately but decided to stay in Sumeria, where they had committed their crimes. They seemed to be quite bold, but it also saved Andrius a lot of trouble.
“Come on, let’s go.”
Andrius brought Noir to the designated location.

The Grand Western Rivermoon Hotel was not the best hotel in Sumeria, but it was lavishly decorated and grand, and it was considered one of the top hotels in the city. Inside the presidential suite, Axel and Richard were eating a feast at the table.
“Dad, are we going to be fine staying here in Sumeria?” Axel asked.
“The most dangerous place is the safest place,” Richard said with a scoff.
He looked like a wise man as he said, “People must have assumed that we had fled the country. Who would expect us to stay in the city? Besides, we didn’t use our real ID to check–in, so it will be fine.”
Axel pondered and realized that it made sense. The modern city required one’s ID for identification on various occasions.
While Richard was preparing to transfer their assets out of the country, he had already prepared fake IDs and passports just in case, and he had planned it meticulously.
As long as they stayed away from familiar faces, no one knew that they were Axel and Richard Cloverfield.
“Dad, you’re awesome!”
Axel poured himself a glass of 82‘ Chateau Lafite and filled up Richard’s glass.
Cheers!”
“Cheers!”
The father and son were already fantasizing about their beautiful and amazing lives ahead.
Ding!
The phone on the table buzzed.
Richard leisurely picked it up for a glance, but his expression changed.
“Richard Cloverfield, your card number XXXXXX3344 is suspected to be involved in illegal fundraising, and your account has been frozen. If you have any inquiries, please call 66666,”
His bank card had been frozen!
His heart skipped a beat, and his eyes fluttered. He bolted up and started to pack his things.
Axel noticed the nervous look on his face. “Dad, what happened?”
“Pack your things. We have to go now!”
Richard dared not waste a single minute. “Our cards have been frozen! The police must be on to us! They might be here soon!”
“Huh? I… I…” Axel suddenly lost his appetite. He, too, started to pack his things.
A minute later, the two of them with their luggage went to the door.
When they opened the door, they saw two people in front of them. It was Andrius and Noir.
hapter 102
“A–Andrius Moonshade? Why are you here?! How did you know we are here?” Axel’s pupils shrank in fear, and he could not believe his eyes.
Andrius scoffed in disdain. “You two committed fraudulent crimes and are afraid of people knowing where you are. Why wouldn’t I know about that?”
The father and son knew that they could not get away that easily now. In order to escape, they would have to silence or even kill Andrius.
The two of them jumped toward Andrius.
“You’re asking for it,” Andrius said with a grunt. He punched both of them and knocked them to the floor.
He then called Marcus and said, “Marcus, come to Grand Western Rivermoon Hotel. I have a big present for you.”
A big present?
Marcus immediately said, “Yes, sir. I’m on my way.”
Even though he had a full plate dealing with the mess Axel and his father had created, when Andrius called him for a meeting, he agreed to meet as well.
“Oh, and remember to bring some men over,” Andrius added.
Men? What did he mean?
Marcus was confused but dared not ask further. He answered, “Alright. Please wait for a while, Wolf King. I’ll get my men ready.”
A while later, Marcus arrived at Grand Western Rivermoon Hotel with several police officers. When he saw Axel and Richard lying down on the floor, he was delighted and pleasantly surprised.
“Wolf King, this is really a HUGE present!” Marcus exclaimed.
Just when he was dealing with the mess that the two of them created, the Wolf King had settled his problem for him.
“Take them back.” Andrius added, “Oh, and try to retrieve the money they scammed as soon as possible and return the money to the Crestfalls first.”
“Yes, sir.”
Marcus immediately called his secretary, Jackie Canister, who settled the procedures quickly and visited Luna.
He sent Luna a bank card and said, “This is the money that the Cloverfields took from you. It is all in here. Please be careful next time.”
The whole family was shocked.
They already got their money back?
Suddenly, they thought of what Andrius said earlier. He said that he could get the money back, but it was too quick for them to even believe it.
“T–thank you, Secretary Canister.”
Luna was over the moon and could barely contain herself. She accepted the card from Jackie respectfully.
Harry had multiple thoughts in his mind, so he asked, “Secretary Canister, did Andrius retrieve the money back for us?”
“Andrius?” Jackie did not know who Andrius was.
Whenever Marcus met Andrius, he would usually send Jackie away and would never tell Jackie about the man’s identity, so Jackie had no idea who Andrius was.
“What Andrius? This is Mayor Freely’s order. Make no mistake about it.”
He then left.
The Crestfalls understood what happened. They were able to get the money back, but it had nothing to do with Andrius.
Maybe Mayor Freely was eager to initiate the Valiant Institute project and did not want anything to happen to the Crestfalls, who were in charge of the project, hence the speedy recovery of the money.
Chapter 103
“Hahaha!” George cackled with laughter. “And here I thought that Andrius is a capable guy! He’s just bragging and boasting again. He’s really good at doing nothing!”
Dick scoffed as well. He looked at Luna in disdain and sneered, “Luna, your husband is really something. Bragging is his first instinct.”
He then looked at Harry and mocked, “Where did you get yourself such an amazing son -in–law? Tell me so I can avoid such a guy.”
Getting back the money was great news, but with George and Dick ridiculing them, Luna and Harry’s mood turned sour again.
Later that night, Andrius returned to Dream’s Waterfront.
While he was walking to the door, he thought he could finally have a normal day for once now that he had recovered the money for the Crestfalls.
When he entered the house, he noticed Harry there.
Harry vented the grievance that he received from his brother earlier in the day on him. “Andrius, you said you would get the money back in three days?”
Andrius felt surprised. He said, “I thought it’s already been returned?”
“Tsk…” Harry clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes. “You keep telling yourself that. I want to see how long you can keep that up. Mayor Freely recovered it for us. It has nothing to do with you!”
Andrius thought, ‘It was Marcus, alright, but I am the one who captured the culprit
first.‘
Of course, even if he told Harry the truth, the man would not believe him.
Then, Harry took a sip of tea and lectured him, “Andrius, if you are not that capable, don’t brag so much. It’s other people’s credit, you can’t just take it for yourself. It will make
you look useless and…”
Harry got carried away, and it seemed like he could go on forever.
Luna stopped him. “Dad, it’s enough. Andrius is not totally useless. Just go rest. It’s late already.”
Harry looked at the time. He stood up and looked at Andrius with contempt before he grunted and left.
Luna was left alone with Andrius.
She remembered Andrius telling her not to invest in the Cloverfields‘ company and buying more time for her to deal with the incident. She was grateful and embarrassed.
“Andrius, thank you. Even though you didn’t get the money back, you bought us time and saved us from being expelled from the family. And… the money did come back Within three days, or else I don’t even dare to imagine what would have happened to
us.‘
She made it sound like Andrius did not do anything, yet it confused him. It seemed like she believed he had nothing to do with getting the money back.
Andrius wanted to tell her the truth. “Luna, the money…”
Luna stopped him and said, “It’s okay. Just let it be. Don’t talk about the money anymore. I won’t blame you for bluffing.”
Andrius was speechless and helpless.
On second thought, Luna said, “I’ll give Team Five a new assignment in a few days. Follow Frank and do it properly, then you can earn some extra pocket money. Consider it compensation.”
Luna came up with the decision after some careful consideration. She was the one who started it, and she had no idea how much Fatty Frank invested in the Cloverfields‘ company. She was too embarrassed to ask either.
Even though the money would be returned back sooner or later now that Axel and his father were arrested, she was still too ashamed.
Therefore, she decided to compensate Fatty Frank this way.
Andrius never would have thought that as the Wolf King who commanded a million Lycantroops, he would have to work to earn himself some extra pocket money. Curious, he asked, “What assignment is that?”

“Mayor Freely is concerned about our company and the funds we lost, so in return, we must quickly initiate the Valiant Institute project.” Luna looked serious. “So, I have an idea, which is to purchase a new batch of machinery to increase the efficiency of the project. With that, we can complete the project earlier.
Andrius nodded. The Valiant Institute project had been delayed for a while now and must be initiated soon.
It was great that Luna was concerned about it.
“Frank has been doing well lately, and he’s starting to win recognition within the company. That’s why I am assigning him to this task.” Luna added, “You should learn from him and get some experience. When the project is completed, you can also get some sharing profit from the company.”
After what happened with the company funds, Luna realized that other than being boastful, proud, and arrogant, Andrius did not have any serious flaws despite him coming from the mountains. He had a good heart above everything else.
“Alright, I’ll follow Frank around and see what I can do,” Andrius said.
Luna hummed a reply and returned to her room.
Andrius took a shower and went to his room. He still had a lot of military affairs to deal with.
Meanwhile, Solomon received an update from his man. “Mr. Stormbrew, New Moon Corporation is on the move again.”
Solomon asked, “What are they doing now?”
His man reported, “They are going to purchase a new batch of machinery from Eastern Orient Machine for the Valiant Institute project. They should be going there in the next two days.”
Eastern Orient Machine?
Purchasing a new batch of machinery?
Solomon narrowed his eyes. The gears in his mind spun rapidly.
“Okay, I got it.”
The call ended. Solomon grinned and muttered, “New Moon Corporation wants to purchase new machinery, but I’ll make sure your money and your machines are gone!”
Then, he found a contact in his contact list and dialed the number. “Houser, I need a favor.”
Houser Selensky was Solomon’s long–time partner, and Eastern Orient Machine was
his company.
Houser said, “Solomon, there’s no need for courtesy between us. Since when have I ever let you down? Just tell me what is it.”
Solomon had delight on his face with Houser’s assurance. “New Moon Corporation is looking to purchase some machines from your place. It should happen within the next two days. They are looking for machines to speed up the progress of the Valiant Institute project.
“I want you to stop the delivery. Take their money first but delay the machines as long as possible. That will be it.”
Houser thumped his chest confidently. “Not a problem. Leave it to me. I will make sure they cannot complete the project in time.”
With the assurance, Solomon breathed a sigh of relief. He had to make it work this time!
The next day, Andrius arrived at the office to meet up with Fatty Frank before they went out to purchase the machinery from Eastern Orient Machine.
“Boss, you’re awesome!” Fatty Frank exclaimed on the way there, “If you hadn’t warned me about that b*stard Axel, I would have thrown all my money to him.”
Andrius smiled without saying a word.
“Oh, right! I can settle the deal later! Boss, just go wherever you want or do whatever you wish. I’ll call you if there’s anything.”
Fatty Frank was indeed a capable employee.
Andrius then accepted his suggestion and headed to Noir’s garage.
“Andy, you’re here.” Noir put the wrench down and said, “I just got the news that the Hanshus are making a move. Randal’s pops looks pissed.”
Andrius scoffed. “That’s his business, not mine. If he leaves me out of it, I won’t do anything to him either; if he crosses my path, I don’t mind destroying him as well.“
Chapter 105
Andrius would have crushed the Hanshus if they were at the border, yet the Hanshus still sought revenge after what they did to Randal.
They would not dare.
“Of course, of course.” Noir chuckled. He said frivolously, “Andy, you don’t even need to do anything. I can just deal with them out of convenience.”
After all, he rose to become the captain of the Shadow Wolves because of his kill count. While they were chatting, Andrius‘ phone rang. It was Fatty Frank.
“Boss! Something has happened! Come back to the office now!” Fatty Frank sounded anxious.
Andrius frowned. He returned to the office, but Fatty Frank was not there, so he went to Luna’s office.
“Team Five can’t do anything well. They can’t bear the responsibility.”
“We gave them a simple assignment, and they screwed it up. I think we should dissolve the entire department.”
“Yeah. Why are we feeding a bunch of good–for–nothing kids?”
Andrius was outside the office, and he heard the other executives criticizing Team Five’s performance. He even heard Luna’s voice defending Team Five, but she was alone and her opinion was swiftly drowned out by the others.
A while later, Fatty Frank came out, dispirited.
When he saw Andrius, he wore an apologetic look and said, “Boss, I’m sorry. I screwed up and dragged you guys down.”
“Tell me what happened,” Andrius said.
Fatty Frank sighed. His expression turned sour, causing his flappy cheeks to crumple. “ When I was making the purchase at Eastern Orient Machine, everything went on smoothly. The machine model, the price, everything… I even got them to sign the contract, but…”
Fatty Frank’s expression turned bitter. “After we signed the contract, they told me that the machinery that we ordered had problems and that they had to delay the delivery. It’s my fault for not being careful enough. I should have confirmed it first.”
Fatty Frank took all the blame on himself.
Andrius said, “Calm down. Just wait.”
A while later, the executives left Luna’s office, so Andrius brought Fatty Frank in again.
Luna was upset. She watched the two of them walk into her office without saying a
word.
“Luna, I’m sorry…” Fatty Frank apologized.
Chapter 107
“Then, that is where I come in. I will send my men to sabotage the machines during their delivery… By then, they will lose the money and the machines. They won’t be able to meet the deadline for the Valiant Institute project. Once Mayor Freely puts the blame on them, their company won’t be able to handle the responsibility!”
“Hahaha!” Houser laughed. He raised his glass again and said, “Here’s to earning money!”
