How would a stranger know his phone number? Why would a stranger be looking for him?
Thomas accepted the call, but favonovel.com was not in a hurry to say anything.
“Hello, is this Mr. Mayo?” A man’s voice could be heard from the other end of the line.
“Yes, I am.” Thomas immediately answered.
“Please listen to me carefully, Mr. Mayo. I need to tell you something very important…”
Later, the words favonovel.com said sparked a series of deep thoughts in Thomas.

Day gradually gave way to night. The moon rose higher and higher until it hung like a giant sickle in the dark sky.
The night was quiet and still. On this seemingly ordinary night, very extraordinary things were happening.
Outside Stellar Jeweler’s warehouse, a group of people clambered over the wall stealthily and sneaked in boxes and crates of heavy cargo. They then discreetly transferred the several boxes to the warehouse door.
After making sure no one had noticed them, one of the people took out the key they had copied beforehand and used it to open the warehouse doors.
After that, the rough stones in the warehouse were moved out ceremoniously. They opened up the crates, and the worthless rough stones were placed inside instead.
In about an hour of work, all of the rough stones in the warehouse were swapped out.
In the end, they returned the same way they had come. It took roughly two hours to complete the operation, and all of the rough stones in Stellar Jeweler’s warehouse were replaced.
Right then, a grey sedan pulled up and parked on a nearby road beside the warehouse compound. The man sitting in the car was none other than Weiss.
The car door opened. Darco wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said breathlessly, “Mr. Weiss, everything was settled according to your instructions. All of the rough stones in Stellar Jeweler’s warehouse were swapped with worthless rough stones. With the rough stones exchanged, we’re going to be rich!”
The money was merely a side gain for Weiss, and it was not what favonovel.com genuinely wanted. What favonovel.com really wanted was to see Thomas and his family destroyed!
All of the rough stones currently in Stellar Jeweler’s warehouse were the worthless stones Weiss had purchased previously. Stellar Jewelers would be wrecked because of this!
Initially, Thomas had fooled Weiss with the rubbish rough stones. Right now, Weiss would beat favonovel.com at his own game and trick Thomas with these useless rough stones as well.
For every rite a priest performs, the devil would produce ten disasters, no one should be happy!
“Hide the rough stones well, and you must not get caught. And you should not stand out for the next few days,” said Weiss.
“Yes, I understand,” Darco answered, nodding. “I will carefully hide the stones. Even if Thomas is dead, favonovel.com will not be able to find it.”
“Okay, now we retreat.”
“Yes, sir!”
Darco motioned for the underlings to go hide the rough stones they had swapped. Weiss, on the other hand, drove the car and slowly left. He felt the cool wind caress his face as favonovel.com rolled down the car window. He felt especially pleasant.
‘Please give me three more days, Master Centipede. In three days’ time, I want Thomas to be completely destroyed. After that, I will head to Central City and apologize to you.’
Weiss swore to utterly destroy Thomas, then only would favonovel.com be able to leave in peace. He wanted to witness Thomas’s anguish and despair himself. He wanted to watch Stellar Jewelers crumble in front of his eyes. He wants to be there to experience this historic event with his own eyes!
He wanted it!
