Edgar went straight to one of his villas by the countryside from the restaurant, angered by Edna's words.He wondered if Meyer would have had the guts to try to coerce him into doing what he did not want to if he knew about his true identity."Why are you angry with her? She only wanted to warn you?"Edgar turned to his right. His nose flared.Lucas was with him in the room.Edgar glared at him. "I should be angry the most at you. If you-""Did not make me act like I have nothing, no one would have dared talk to me anyhow they liked or something like that," Lucas smirked after completing his sentence."Get out of my house." Edgar glowered at him.Not minding what Edgar said, Lucas walked into the interior of the room and sat on one of the sofas in the room."Why are you-""Why do you keep on giving commands when you know I will do whatever I want to do?" Lucas asked. His smirk was still on his face.Edgar rolled his eyes. He was right and it was annoying."I can't wait to get rid of y

"Are you crazy?"Edgar watched with a straight face as Lucas paced up and down the room. Of course, he knew Lucas would get mad but did he care? No."We are trying to avoid the murderer of---""We are not trying to avoid him. We are trying to find out who he is and deal with him." Edgar glowered. "I want revenge for the death of my family members. I am not avoiding that son of a bitch."Lucas stopped pacing."That does not mean you should be foolish. You should be able to see danger and avoid it, but you saw danger and dived right into it.""That tattoo on Meyer Jones' arm shows that he once worked for the murderer of my family. He is my ticket to knowing the identity of the murderer. He was always involved in their murder. I have to teach him a lesson too, but that will be after I have gotten what I want.""If the one you seek could just be found by asking his subjects then he would have been found a long time ago," Lucas pointed out. "You would get nothing by interrogating Meyer Jone

"Edgar Plutus, do you take Edna Abigail Jones as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" "I do," Edgar answered without thinking twice."What God joins together, let no one put asunder," the priest declared and that was all it took for them to get married. Edgar frowned as he watched his guests. Everyone of them were from the ‘high class society’ and a good number of them had once looked down on him at one time or the other.Why were they here? Well, it was the wedding of Edna Jones, the daughter of one of the top three richest men in town. Though she was getting married to a pauper, but her father was rich and it was an avenue for these greedy people to meet each other and see how much they could take advantage of each other.His wedding was an opportunity for these snobs to get richer and it annoyed Edgar.He wondered which was more annoying— the fact that th

The next day after the wedding, Edgar woke up to Meyer Jones screaming his name. Edgar frowned.Not having a good sleep was definitely not part of his contract with Meyer Jones."Edgar!" The voice was louder, indicating that Meyer was at his door. "Open the door. How dare you embarrass my daughter the way you did? She's way above you and you totally ignored her when she asked for a picture. How dare you?"Groaning, Edgar opened the door. "In the agreement we signed, I saw nothing about granting your daughter a picture whenever she asks for one."Immediately, Meyer struck him across his face. "There is a reason I chose someone from a low background for my daughter. Not because people like you are deserving of her. Of course, you aren't. You're way below. I chose you so my daughter can have someone she can control as she likes. If she says she wants a photo, you give a freaking photo. You were being employed as my daughter's husband.""If your daughter was all that, you would not need t

"Meyer Homes used his wife and daughter to get money." Lucas paced about the room, eyes widened. "His family? That man is more evil than I thought he was.""What next are you going to say? That I should be careful." Edgar said with a smirk and Lucas heaved a sigh of frustration."If that man can kill his wife, then you should be very careful. Well, he loves his daughter. Why else would he not get a rich husband?"Edgar scoffed. "I am surprised to hear that from you. Are you that naive? He is afraid a rich person can decipher the source of his riches easily. He thinks I'm a stubborn, but naive street boy who married his daughter because he was forced.""That man would kill his daughter in a heartbeat," Lucas pointed out.Edgar smirked. "Are you just realizing?""Did you try to get more information from her? What more did you get?"Edgar's face fell. "Nothing more. Well, for now. I tried asking Edna about her journey to this so-called friend of Meyer who I believe to be the one who kill

In less than an hour, Violet, her daughter, Jessica and Edgar were in the living room with Meyer Jones, who was pacing up and down the room."Who triggered it? It was not supposed to come now." Meyer Jones' voice was low and chilling. He furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at every one of them."Ask your son in law," Violet sneered."Yes, ask him. He wanted to beat my mother up and your daughter began to scream. Before we knew it, she began to display the mad person that she is."Meyer Jones frowned at Jessica, but said nothing.He turned to Edgar. "How dare you?""You know the cause of your daughter's condition. Don't you dare try to pin it on someone who you know has no hand in it.""See," Violet said, smirking. "You can see how daring this son-in-law of yours is. I told him that he should make sure he makes your daughter happy and he slapped. Meyer, he slapped me. Thrice.""Yes, uncle. We could do nothing. He is your son-in-law after all. You paid him but that is what he is. The pos

Edgar paced up and down the room, awaiting Lucas' arrival. It has been two days since he had spoken to Edna. He tried to do so again but this time around, Meter had warned the security men never to let Edgar into the room.Edgar frowned.Where was Lucas when he needed him?"Are you missing me already?"Edgar turned toward the voice. It was Lucas. "You come when I don't need you. When I do, you become scarce.""What is happening? Why do you suddenly need my presence which you've always despised?""I got something. Finally, I now know a way to find that mother fucker who killed my family members."Lucas looked at him, terrified at Edgar's words."Why are you not happy?" Edgar frowned. "You look like you've seen a ghost.""I just did not expect to find him this soon.""Why?" Edgar raised an eyebrow. "Are you interested in my money?""Of course not, I don't have access to your money, though if I wanted to, I would have and would have been rich by now. I'm just scared for you. Allen killed

Edgar was back in his room in Meyer Jones house."How can he just die?" Edgar asked, looking through the window.Lucas just stared, wondering if the question was meant for him or Edgar himself."Allen is evil. He has tons of enemies. Who knows? One of them might have gotten to him before you did." Lucas said anyways."No." Edgar shook his head. "This can not be a coincidence.""What are you saying?""I think he knew I was coming.""You're overthinking. Like I have said, Allen has a lot of people who want him dead and someone must have done what you wanted to before you could.""Those men at the gate," Edgar began. He was deep in thought. "You said it was hard to pass through that gate but immediately they looked into the car and saw us, they let us in immediately. There is definitely something wrong somewhere. Allen wanted me to see that body.""Allen Plutus is dead," Lucas said. "Take my word for it. If he was not, you would be the one dead now."Edgar frowned. "It's a game.""Allen

The next day, Edgar and Edna decided to tell Meyer Jones about their decision to leave his house.Edna still had cold feet. She had never stayed away from her father and she doubted if her father would let her leave his house and live with a man with her condition."I hope he does not give us a hard time," Edna muttered to herself. She put on a reassuring smile as she glanced at Edgar to put him at ease.Edgar on the other hand was ready and determined to take Edna away from her father whether he liked it or not. He was ready to take Edna away by force.They were both in the living room, awaiting Meyer Jones' return.In about an hour, Meyer Jones was back home."Dad," Edna called out with a smile as soon as she saw him. She ran to him and hugged him."What's wrong?" Meyer Jones asked. His daughter has always been sweet to him, but getting a hug out of the blues was still weird."What is happening?""Please, sit down," Edna coaxed, still keeping her smile as she led her father to one of

"You want a job worth nothing less than 100, 000 USD monthly? That's crazy." Lucas frowned at Edgar. Edgar had told him about his deal with Meyer Jones. "You don't have the qualifications to earn such a salary. Getting a job like that without qualifications means you are from an influential family." Edgar scoffed. "I am the grandson of the god of money himself. How influential can one be?" Lucas heaved a sigh of frustration. "Nobody knows. Have you forgotten? Low key, remember?" Edgar raised an eyebrow. "I thought you said my family murderer is dead, what is the need of still staying low-key?" "You said he was not. What if you turn out to be true? For now, we have to be careful until we are certain he is dead." "I do not care about what you think. All I know is that you are getting me that job in one of my companies." Lucas shook his head. He looked at Edgar pitifully. "This is a bad idea." "I don't care. I have to take Edna with me and leave this house." Lucas shrugged after
