Jasper’s eyebrows shoot up in surprise. He throws his head back and laughs so hard and he hits his hand on the table. This is the craziest thing that he has heard in a long time. His parents have got to be joking if they believed that. The Great Overlord is the most talked about soldier in the entire world. He has single handedly started and ended wars. He is the only one that can make heartless tyrants piss in their pants. How can Andrew Carter be that man?! Never! Not even in a thousand years! He has never seen someone as useless and poor as Andrew! He remembers that Andrew tried to pull some stunts when he first met the man, but he never bought it. Those soldiers that he hired to try to scare them when he came back! They didn't buy it at all! He wasn't deceived then, he won't be deceived now. “Mum, Dad, telling me that Andrew Carter is the overlord is going to be harder than trying to convince me that big foot exists!” He huffs. “I have known Andrew for months now and I can

Andrew receives a text from Saint that says that they have to meet immediately, he has to discuss something with him. Andrew suggests they meet at the house because he has become very busy nowadays. He locks himself in the study of his house and handles some army work that needs dire attention. Saint won't come to the house, he asks for Andrew to meet him at a restaurant in a few hours time and Andrew agrees. His junior brother sounds very serious. When he gets to the restaurant, it's filled up because of just how popular and nice it is. People are literally hanging out outside, waiting for someone to cancel so that they can take their table. Saint has booked a table at one of the most comfortable sections of the restaurant, but he doesn't even have a glass of water on the table. Whatever it is that has brought Saint here today, it has to be very serious. Andrew sighs as he lets himself sit down on the available seat. That's when Saint raises his head, his brows are pulled down

Everyone is so shocked that they immediately freeze. Even Ruby has her jaw on the ground!The anonymous partner has never been present in the attendance of all their meetings, but each time that he has to make a decision, it somehow ends up favoring Ruby! Ruby holds her hands over her mouth. She doesn't know if she should be happy or she should burst into tears. This is so overwhelming for her. Adriana stands up with a yell of anguish. Her face is full of veins and she is so red with anger. “Ruby?! Out of all the people in the room, I am supposed to believe that he took one look at Ruby and decided that she is the one?!” She screams with vexation. Frederick boredly bats his eyes as he looks at her. He is so used to her kiddish tantrums that he is not fazed by them. “Miss Adriana, the anonymous partner, owns the larger percentage of the empire and he has done what he chose with it.” He says. “Do you have a problem with it?!” “Do I have a problem with him picking the least compet

Doreen doesn't know what else to do, she immediately bursts into tears. The police have come and they are going to take them away. How is she supposed to go to jail? They are going to take Andrew too! How is Thomas and Ruby supposed to react?! “Please, I beg you, leave Andrew out of this! He didn't do anything!” She rubs her hands together in tears. “What the hell is going on?” Andrew looks at them. The police come to them and the father jumps up, he is the first to start screaming accusations. “Thank God that you have come, officers. This woman is a thief. She was our housekeeper, but she stole some of our stuff and ran away weeks ago! Arrest her and her accomplice, this man!” “Thief?” Andrew scoffs. “That's the most stupid thing I have heard in a very long time!” “He is lying. She is our housekeeper, but she ran away when she stole our money and gadgets!” “Housekeeper? Why do you people keep calling her that?” Andrew frowns. “Doreen is not a housekeeper. She is an interior d

It feels so unreal, it feels like a dream to Doreen. Andrew leads her to the car and she watches as the Santos family chases after her, begging that she begs Andrew to take back his verdict and don't destroy their lives. The car drives off, Andrew is concentrated on the road and no matter how much she tries, she can't looking at him. She can't stop thinking about what he has done. She feels a little big scared to be seated not to him right now. He spoke with so much authorities and those soldiers were very scared of him. Is this really yes son-in-law? Why is she seeing him in an entirely different light now? “Mum, are you hungry?” He glances at her. “We can stop by a restaurant and then we will go home.” “No, I'm fine.” She says, looking ahead. “I just want to go home and sleep.” “It's okay, mum, we are going to be home very soon.” He smiles at her, but her face is too swollen to smile back at her. He is pretending that he can feel her eyes on his skin. She is probably confus
