"I believe in you, son. I know that whatever you want to do has a reason for it, and I know that you wouldn't do anything wrong," Mrs. Wright said, smiling at Alaric. He nodded and smiled in a retort. "Thanks for having faith in and trusting me Mom. I will never forget what you have done for me. This family changed my life and you showered me with love. I will never regret coming into this family." "It's also a good thing for us that we have you in our lives, son. I'm sure that you will be the one to uphold our reputation in high regard I have strong faith and confidence in you," she said. Alaric nodded, and they talked about a few more things. " Anyways, did you meet with the members of the Board today?" His mother suddenly asked. "Yes," he said and nodded. His eyes darted to the outside. "I met with them. They were very kind people and they had very great reputations as you had told me. Also, I didn't face any problems and I was able to catch up quickly. There was no commotio

"Young Master, we have arrived," Steve informed looking at Alaric who was seated in the back. Alaric's eyes opened to see the bright sunlight, blazing through the car window. The beautiful company stood in elegance, and he was surprised at how large this building was. A smile crossed his lips as he nodded, and Steve stepped out of the car. A guard opened the door for Alaric to come out of the car, and Alaric stepped out. He sighed deeply, understanding the responsibilities he would shoulder. Somehow, he felt like it was a very foreign thing to him. "Is there anything wrong, young master?" Steve asked, noticing the weird action of Alaric. "Nothing is wrong. It just feels like this is something huge that I have not done before. I'm still wondering how I will be able to handle everything," he said, feeling tense. "Don't worry young master. Everything will be just fine. I'm sure you did well yesterday, and I know you will also do a good job today. Your mother, the Madame, will be s

Alaric walked to the lobby where Evelyn was waiting for him. "What was that, Evelyn? I don't understand why you had to leave that abruptly," he said. A tinge of remorse blazed in her eyes, and he couldn't fathom what the situation at hand was. "I'm sorry young master," she said with a faintly dim expression. "I didn't mean to leave like that. It just happened all of a sudden, and I had to leave," she said. "Why did you leave? What happened?" He asked her. "I'm sorry if I made you worry, Young Master. I wasn't comfortable at that time, so I had to leave and come here to wait for you," Evelyn explained. "What made you uncomfortable? Is it because of Lucas? Is he troubling you?" Alaric asked, showing concern on his face. For a while, Evelyn was silent and didn't say a word. "Forget about it, young master. It is just some personal issues. I hope you understand me, please. I just don't like Lucas," she said. Alaric was shocked to hear that. He thought Lucas was a very good pers

The waitress brought the order in a tray and placed the cups of coffee on the table. Alaric smiled at Mr. Donaldson, and he tipped the waitress. "Thanks for your service, ma'am," he thanked her, and she nodded. "You're very welcome sir. Have a nice meeting. Thank you for the tip," she said, and bowed her head, before retreating to the counter. "That's very generous of you, Alaric, but I already paid for every order we would need. The extra money which we might not make use of is given as a tip. Anyways, that's very good of you, Alaric," he said. Alaric smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Donaldson. If there isn't any more to say about that, can we get to the real matter? I heard you have been proposing a deal with the Wright Empire, and have arranged this meeting today to specifically speak about it," Alaric said. Mr. Donaldson nodded. "Yes, Alaric. Anyways, I was expecting to see your father or your mother, because he was the CEO and owner of Wright Empire before the big annou

Alaric stared at his phone in bewilderment. He didn't want Kimberly to face any harm of some sort. He ran up to Steve, who was waiting for him by the car. "Are we ready to leave, Young Master? Can we go now?" Steve asked Alaric, who looked worried. "I think I will have to go now, Steve. I have something really important to attend to," Alaric said, his voice filled with urgency. Steve looked surprised. "Is there anything wrong, Young Master? Why are you sounding like that?" He asked. Alaric shook his head, and fear flitted across his eyes. "I don't think I have the time to explain anything right now. I will take one of the cars. Make sure not to follow me or send the guards after me. It's an order from me to you, do not defy it," he said, and headed to the first car. "But what happened, Young Master? Maybe I could be of help. It is my duty to make sure you are guarded at all times. The madam won't be happy if she hears that I didn't protect you and let you leave without telling
