Hollywood Immortal Chapter 367 368: Destroyed

[Chapter 368: Destroyed]

On April 11th, The New York Tis' aftermath handling was fully completed. Hillary eagerly flew to Los Angeles and checked into the Four Seasons Hotel.

Not long after, Linton quietly moved into the room next door. Soon, a knock ca at his door.

When he opened it, a beautiful figure like a flash leapt into his arms, planting a fragrant kiss. "Master, Hilly missed you so much! You definitely owe a big reward today."

Hillary was especially radiant today. It seed this battle hadn't made her anxious or worn down; instead, the glorious victory had energized her spirit and vitality. Linton even sensed her aura had grown considerably stronger.

Of course, Hillary's outfit was exceptionally sexy and stunning -- a fiery red tight-fitting evening gown sculpted her figure perfectly. Her face showed delicate, light makeup, golden hair cascading over her shoulders, and her bright red lips added a unique charm.

Soon, their passionate encounter ignited fiercely...

Sweet, joyful singing filled the air...

---

After a full three hours, their intimacy paused. Hillary lay soft and content in Linton's arms like a kitten.

"Master, you were amazing." As soon as she spoke, she realized her voice had beco hoarse.

"Don't be imaptient, get up and have so water first."

Shyly, Hillary rose and poured Linton a glass of water, then drank a big one herself, soothing her dry throat and rehydrating. After that, she obediently nestled back into Linton's arms.

"Master, we achieved an enormous victory this ti."

"What exactly did we get? Tell in detail."

"First, we made over $350 million short selling stocks."

"I know; didn't I also make $72 million?"

"Yes, I also earned $72 million, just like you. But what you don't know is what ca after."

"What ca after? Go on."

"Well, through legal and compliant procedures, our alliance carved up all core assets of the Douglas family. Do you know how many assets I got?"

"How many?"

"The Douglas family held 28% of The New York Tis, plus a $50 million luxury estate on Long Island."

"How much did you pay?"

"Not a di. Through this operation, I now own 32% of The New York Tis shares, which ans I essentially control the paper. Plus, I have the estate, and I still netted $13 million in cash."

"So, you turned that $60 million from short selling into a massive stake in The New York Tis?"

"Exactly. Now that The New York Tis has resud normal operations and its stock price is rising, do you want to know how much those shares are worth?"

"How much?"

"At today's market value, a whopping $330 million. As the company continues to recover smoothly, the stock is likely to climb further; returning to the previous $1.3 billion market cap is very possible."

"Wow, that's more impressive than robbing a bank! Excellent! Anything else?"

"Of course, the most important thing is we completely destroyed the Douglas family, who were previously at odds with us. From now on, Arica no longer has the Douglas family."

"That's impossible. The Douglas family is large -- dozens of people. Only three went to prison. What about the others?"

"The rest are notorious in Arica now; they have no place to stay."

"No way. You wiped them all out?"

"Master, since we've utterly crossed them, leaving them around would be a threat. Keeping them in Arica would be reckless. Not just , but our other partners wouldn't agree either."

"You didn't actually kill them all, did you?"

"No, we're not that cruel. We left them a way out."

"What way?"

"The family always pushed for Zionism -- they were so of Israel's most radical advocates. So, we made them move to Israel, to join the Middle East conflicts and contribute fully there."

"Smart idea, but will they obey?"

"That's not up to them. Without their vast wealth protecting them, they're already being targeted relentlessly by those they offended. Do you know who's in our alliance?"

"FBI, Federal Trade Commission, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs?"

"Close, but it's not the FBI -- it's the Departnt of Justice behind them. The FBI is just part of it."

"So, the Douglas family has lost all official protection in Arica?"

"Yes, not only that, but they're exposed to blatant hostility everywhere."

"Won't other Jewish communities help them?"

"A few tried, but the DOJ sent in DEA agents who cracked down hard -- several arrests were made, and afterwards no one dared step in again."

"Are these Jewish people involved in drug trafficking?"

"Who said they got caught because of drug trafficking?" Hillary shot Linton a strange look. He was a good man, but maybe too innocent.

"What then?"

"DEA doesn't need a reason to arrest them. After they were caught, no drug evidence could be found."

"Oh, I underestimated the Departnt of Justice. So they have all left now?"

"Almost. A batch has already gone. In less than a week, the rest will follow."

"Apart from Israel, won't they go elsewhere?"

"Don't worry. The DOJ monitors them closely, and Border Control has blacklisted them. They have no chance of returning to Arica. If any try to leave Israel, we'll know quickly. When they're far away, anything might happen."

"Aren't three still in prison?"

"Master, you're too kind. Do you really think those three will co out alive?"

Damn, he got called too kind. But these people were truly ruthless. Just one family with a hundred years of history had all their wealth stolen, core mbers locked away with uncertain fates, and the rest expelled from the country -- utterly wiped out.

Of course, it was also because they had wealth but lacked real power, made mistakes that got evidence against them, and acted too boldly. That's what attracted this pack of wolves. They only played a small catalyst role.

'This Arica is not a free and democratic country. It's a power-driven, lawless land of thieves where murder and plunder are common -- just with a civilized and legal mask on.

That's fine. Now that my fists are strong and I have Bill and Hillary -- two powerful servants at my side -- I can act more freely. Anyone who dares to complain without cause will be dealt with directly.

Once I reach the Astral Dominion stage and have unbeatable power, maybe the whole Arica can beco my private backyard, available to take whatever I want.'

"Master, you're not feeling sorry for them, are you?" Seeing Linton silent, Hillary looked a bit worried.

"No, you did an excellent job. I'll reward you well."

Joyful, sweet singing echoed once more...
