""The man in the wheelchair, his skin adorned with tattoos, wore a puzzled expression. "Bill, what's... what's the matter?""?" he asked, his voice echoing in the silent room.The fallen documents had conveniently landed before him. Curiosity piqued, he bent down swiftly to retrieve them, eager to discover what had elicited such a profound reaction from Bill. Upon scanning the documents, the tattooed man in the wheelchair looked puzzled.
Because the documents just happened to fall in front of him, the tattooed man quickly bent down to pick them up, wanting to see what Bill had seen that caused such a huge reaction.

difficult feat.Even if he had the abilityaudacity to kill Eric now, could he withstand the retaliation from Boss Sean Williams? DefinitelyCertainly not!
Since he couldn't afford to offend, he could only lowerbow down his head.
Seeing Bill bowing to EricWitnessing Bill's submission, Ryan's heart was filledpounded with shockwaves.
Ryan had ashock.A horrifying thought crossed his mind, could it be that Eric was reallyindeed the cChairman of the Power Group?
"""Mr. Phillips, today's events were just a misunderstanding. I apologize for interrupting your enjoyment. I will take my people and leave now,""," Bill hastily said.

.”The life of the tattooed man's lifeman was Bill's compensation to Eric.
Eric nodded, thinking that Bill was quite practical.
"" in approval, appreciating Bill's practicality.“Please, have a seat,"",” Eric casually motioned for Bill to sit opposite him.
""“Mr. Phillips, I... I'm fine standing,"",” Bill smiled and said.
replied with a forced smile.Eric raised his eyebrows.
“I told you to sit, so sit.”
""“Alright!""!” Bill saidagreed with a smile, then sat down.
After sitting down.
""took a seat.Once seated, Eric spoke, “Today's account, consider it settled,"" Eric said calmly.
.”Upon hearing Eric's words, relief washed over Bill felt relieved in his heart.
"".“Eric, are you...really the chairman?""?” Ryan couldn't help but ask, shocked.
his voice laced with shock.Before Eric could respond, Bill spoke, ""interjected, “Not only is he the chairman, he is also Sean's distant grandson. Ryan, you're lucky to have such a powerful friend.""
"".”“What...what?!""?!” Ryan was dumbfoundedtaken aback by this news.
revelation.Although Ryanhe found it hard to believe, he knew that the intelligence network here at Hedda's place was never wrong.
Now, Ryan finally understood why Eric washad been so confident before, tellingearlier, assuring him not to worry.
At the time, Ryan couldn't understand why Eric was so full of comprehend Eric's unwavering confidence, but now he finally understood!
it all made sense!Ryan finally understood why they were so scared.
terrified.Even Hazel, upon hearing Bill's words, covered her mouth in astonishment, her face filled witha picture of surprise.
Although Hazel was somewhat naive, she knew that Sean was the richest man in Chicago!
""“Ryan, I know you must be shocked right now. We'll talk about this later,"",” Eric said.
assured.Ryan nodded.
in agreement.Eric then turned his attention to Bill.
""“I heard that you own all these streets, is that right?""?” Eric asked.
""inquired.“Correct, but my little business is nothing compared to the Power Group's. It's just a small matter,"",” Bill saidresponded with a forced smile.
""“Do you want to expand?""?” Eric asked.
""“Of course, but all the areas in New York have already been divided. It's already very difficult for me to establish a presence in this region, let alone expand further,"",” Bill said.
""admitted.“What if the Power Group helps you?""?” Eric saidproposed with a smile.
Bill was taken aback.
"" “Mr. Phillips, I don't understand what you mean,"" Bill said, puzzled.
"",” he confessed, his confusion evident.“It's simple, if you join me, you become my employee. Naturally, I will help you expand,"",” Eric saidexplained calmly.
""“Can this...really happen?"" Bill looked pleasantly surprised.
?” Bill asked, his face lighting up with surprise.Bill was well aware that without external assistance, with his current abilities, he could only thrive in these few streets and never grow bigger.
If the Power Group was willing to support him from behind, then he would have the capital to expand!
""“Do I look like I'm joking?""?” Eric shrugged.
Ever since his conflict with Donald, Eric had been contemplating the idea of forming an underground force, but he hadn't found the opportunity until now.
And now, Eric felt that the timing was right.
""“Good! I'm willing! I'm willing to join Mr. Phillips,” Bill agreed without hesitation.
Just because Eric was Sean's grandson, Bill didn't think it was embarrassing or dishonorable to associate with him. If it weren't for the opportunity today, someone like Bill, a small-time thug, might never have a chance to be associated with such a figure as Sean's grandson.
""“Alright, then you're on my team from now on,"",” Eric said.
""confirmed.“Yes!""!” Bill quickly raised his glass and took a sip.
Eric continued, ""“The Power Group is the archenemy of the Horizon Group. My goal is simple—to crush Donald in the future and unite the underground forces of New York.""".”
