“Mother! Mother!” Kaiden’s chin was tightened. His eyes burned in anger. His countenance unapproachable as he stormed into the living room.His voice echoed in the entire mansion which caused Madam Wayles to rush out of the kitchen.“Kay, what is the problem?” She stared at him with concern as her eyes dropped to his dirty shoes and the musky smell coming from him.“What happened?” Beads of sweat were formed on his forehead. One thing was obvious, he had trekked miles just to return home.He was also breathing heavily.“Talk to Dad! Talk to Father before he does something dreadful!” He yelled at his mother’s face.“Something dreadful?” Her lips pursed.“Did something happen?” She questioned anxiously.“Yes! Something happened!” His eyes widened.“Father is about to hand the company over to that vagabond. That useless pig. That idiot that was picked from the gutters!” He screamed in agony as he described the reason for his anger.“Do.. do you mean Maximus?” His mother stuttered in disb
“[BREAKING NEWS: Mr. Wayles appoints his adoptive son as the chairman of Wayles Enterprises as he is set to solve the crisis in the company, does this mean Mr. Kaiden, the real son has lost his inheritance to a half-wit?]”Though the news didn’t turn out as Maximus wanted it at least, everyone knew his adoptive father’s plan and he was rest assured that by the end of the day, he would take up his position.“Show me the control room.” He said after going through the signed contract for a long time.“Please, follow me.” Mr. Wayles said politely.Kaiden’s voice could be heard in the entire mansion as he screamed in agony. “ARGH!! This is crazy!” He grabbed the center table vase and smashed it to the ground as the morning newscaster continued speaking.“Kay! Kay! What is it?” Madam Wayles rushed downstairs, still in her nightwear.“Seriously? I told you to dissuade Father from doing something stupid but what happened? You joined him in his plan! Why have you decided to make me a laughing
“Father, can we finally push him away since our deal with him is done?” Kaiden adjusted his tie as his mother strolled into the living room.“Don’t be foolish. The deal is that he becomes the chairman after restoring the company.” She reminded him in annoyance.“Let’s go.” Since he returned, he had not been able to say a word.He was ashamed and filled with regrets. But then, he felt he might be able to get his company back, even if it demanded staining his dirty hands.“Father! Why are you so quiet about this?!” Kaiden yelled at him in anger.“What do you want me to say?” Mr. Wayles scoffed, facing him.“If you were a bit half sensible like him, this nonsense wouldn’t have occurred. It didn’t even take him an hour to conclude with the process!” Mr. Wayles shunned his son in anger.“Dad!” He cried out.“Shut up, you bastard!” Mr. Wayles screamed.“Now I wish that half-wit, useless bastard was my son as he is better than you in everything.” Mr. Wayles rolled his eyes sarcastically as t
[CONGRATULATIONS, User has accomplished the mission.] The robotic voice came up as he strolled in the hallway.[+20% Cyber Skill Added! = +20% Charm Added! = +10% Agility Added!] As usual, the item dangled in his eyes while following the illustration and for some reason, he felt a little bit different from earlier.Suddenly, his phone beeped.He smiled, checking the message because he already knew what it was.“[Credit Alert: 5,000,000 Sender: TYS]” It was his bonus.“This feels so good.” He let out a toothy smile as a hand rested on his shoulder.“Who is…” He trailed off when he saw the person.“Kaiden?” He was a little bit startled.“What are you doing? How can you chase an heir out of his father’s company?” Kaiden questioned him in annoyance.“Well, that means you are not an eligible heir as you could not protect your inheritance.” He curled his lips, feeling somewhat proud.“You have no right to fire me, Maximus. I don’t know the tricks you played, but this will remain my father’s
The lady shook her head, sighed, and walked to another corner. He roughly scratched his head in fatigue and annoyance as his eyes rolled from left to right.If she wasn’t needy, the system’s location tag wouldn’t be above her head, he tried to check if he would see another target but the street was empty with few people who mind their business.“This is crazy.” He muttered as he approached the lady.“Okay, my apologies for how I sounded earlier.” He couldn’t believe the fact that he was begging who was at fault and also begging to help someone.“That’s the past, you can go.” She sounded so proud as if she deserved it. He scoffed.“So, is there something I can help you with? Maybe with a lift or something?” He asked anxiously, his eyes rolling over her.She smirked, facing him. Her light yellow eyes intoxicated him for the first time and his Adam's apple glided, and he suddenly became nervous.“Actually, there is something I need help with.” She said sadly.“What’s it? I’m willing to h
“Where are you taking me to?” He closed her door and went over to the driver's seat, he entered the car and started the engine immediately.“You will see when we get there.” He said.“We should at least start planning our wedding and maybe, sign the marriage certificate.” She rambled with words anxiously.“One at a time, Nina.” He smiled, adding more pressure to the throttle which sped up the ride.She sighed heavily and relaxed on the chair.This wasn’t how gloomy or desperate her life was but something happened, something triggered her, and she had to act the way she acted to get the right one.Some would say she is a heiress in disguise but it’s different. She closed her eyes briefly, feeling relieved that she had accomplished her mission.Maximus curbed the car in the SPA garage and unlocked the door, as they stepped down, her eyes wandered around the area with a look of admiration in her eyes.“This is lovely.” She gasped, facing him.“I have never been here in my life before.” S
“Sir, I received an order from a certain company named TYS, they asked me to deliver this to you.” The delivery man said, handing him a brown box containing a laptop.“Thank you.” He said.“But, sir, our company tried to navigate where this TYS company is located but directed us to you.” The delivery man gave him a suspicious stare.“Do you work with such a company or have an affair with it?” The delivery man asked politely.“I think you are mistaken. I’m the CEO of Wayles Enterprises, maybe my secretary must have made a mistake or something.” He lied blatantly.He knew it was the system’s code name TYS and couldn’t disclose it to anyone.“Sure. Go ahead and sign the document.” The delivery man said, giving him a file and pen.The following morning, his new driver rode the neon blue SUV car as he sat in the back seat, putting on his earphones. Something had been bothering him and he wanted to know if was possible to go against the system’s order.“Hey TYS, can we talk?” He pretended a
“What? Are you serious?” Kaiden swallowed hard.“I wouldn’t have come here if I didn’t want it.” She paused.“And of course, we will sign a contract and legally register our marriage in court.” She added calmly.“Why should I believe you? We are total strangers and there is no way you can help me?” His eyes rolled from her head to her toe and he sighed.“You are just a weak lady.” He commented.“How about you watch what a weak lady can do?” She stared at him, temptingly curling her lips and he smiled.“If you are serious…” He took her hand. “How about meeting my parents first to conduct a proper, legal marriage.” He asked vividly.“Sure! I don’t have a problem with that.” She said with a wide smile. Kaiden arrived at the family house and met his parents already in conflict with each other.“Father. Mother.” Kaiden cleared his throat, trying to get their attention and also notify them that he was with a guest.“Who is she?” Martha fired at him impatiently.“Why didn’t you inform us bef
