“What's going on?” Benjamin could only crane his neck as the car couldn't move an inch past the thick crowd blocking the road.

Theresa gasped as her eyes caught what was in the distance. “Oh my goodness! Benjy, our house!”

At that moment, Benjamin could see the source of the red light. The one-storey run-down building at the end of the crowd was fully engulfed in flames. This was the building where Theresa lived with Benjamin - in a one-room apartment of this building.

“Benjy, everything is in flames! Our belongings! They're all gone!” Theresa pulled his grandson's arm. “How could this happen?”

Benjamin saw that Theresa was about to exit the car so he quickly held her hand. “Grandma, wait!”

Theresa had just opened the car door before she quickly closed it back due to the alarm in Benjamin's voice. “What is it?!”

    “Don't hurt us!”“S….Somebody, help us! She's gonna kill us!”“I….Get away from me! If you shed blood in the main mansion, you'll …you'll definitely be prosecuted by the Disciplinary unit of the prime estate! So ….So you better not….”April giggled with a dark tone, switching her mode of communication to the telepathic kind that only the employee who spoke last could hear.“Oh? Are you sure about this? Do you really think this kind of threat stands valid when I'm your heir apparent's lover? Do you really think he'd let anything bad happen to me after I kill you and your fellow fools? Then you don't know the master you serve at all. It's all the more reason you should be eliminated.”With the redirection of her telekinesis, the representatives from the various employee departments within this quarter suddenly felt an invisible grip tighten around their necks, choking them. Their airway was effectively blocked for as long as they could hold out.Fear. Utter panic enveloped and invaded

    April gazed at these representatives for a while before she spoke with a casual tone.“Go down on your knees.”The air stiffened for a moment, surrounding the silence as these representing staff members glanced at each other in feigned confusion.The kitchen staff representative raised an eyebrow at April, becoming bolder by the second as they were convinced that they had put April in her place, letting her see clearly that she held no power here and that she would most likely suffer under their watch.“I'm sorry, what?”April's gentle voice became firmer as she stared directly at the kitchen staff.“You're not deaf, right?”Then she utilized her psychic abilities, speaking directly into the minds of these representatives in front of her.[I said kneel!]These employment department representatives didn't know what came over them at that moment. After hearing April's voice echo in their minds, they felt a great shock shoot down their spines. They felt cold and…somewhat isolated. It wa

    April played it cool from the beginning. This was somewhat akin to a battle against her patience and a test of her ability to remain composed in such a situation.April kept glancing at these people's faces while going through their profiles, learning the layout of who was assigned to which quarters in Benjamin's building.This part of the Whiteridge family's Prime Estate's main mansion now belongs to the heir apparent, and she had agreed to help her boyfriend go over the settings of this quarter while Benjamin himself was away on an important meeting with his grandfather.While going over the lengthy profile, April kept wondering what she should do about these blatantly disrespectful housekeepers and maids. They were cursing at her in their minds, clearly hoping that she would find out through her known telepathic ability.April cleared her throat before sitting up straight on the couch. She gazed up at these subordinates.“Where are the rest of the quarter's staff members? The head

    Anthony had a brief moment to analyze the letter that his young master had just read. As the Prime Estate's Head Butler in training, he has to be in the main mansion with Benjamin, especially whenever there's an important meeting taking place.Anthony returned the letter.“Yeah, there's desperation in this content. While they're trying not to come across as super desperate, it unfortunately highlights it even more.”Hunter stared at his grandson after taking a sip of his herbal tea.“So…what do you say, my boy? Do you wish to formally meet up with these CEOs and chairpersons?”Benjamin took his time thinking this through before nodding his head slightly, his eyes staring off into the distance of nothingness.“Yeah, but I'll have to meet them on my own terms, Grandpa. I would like to see what kind of people I'll be ruling over in the future.”He glanced at Prime Estate's Head Butler Herbert McKlin.“I'm guessing they've all seen my face by now, huh?”Herbert nodded his head.“There ha

    Time flowed by after Benjamin’s special introduction event went on to become his coronation as the Heir Apparent of the Whiteridge family and its business empire. The young man had begun moving more frequently between Sunspot Estate and the Whiteridge family's Prime Estate, learning and assuming his duties as the first patriarch of the family.Great Master Hunter had allowed him to exert the appropriate punishment on every sub-family that had dared to offend him on his special day.Benjamin knew better than to hold back at this point. Showing mercy would not only be dumb, but it would also make everyone in the family keep an eye on him and wait to see him mess up, and accuse him of being nothing more than a weakling.So resources were withheld within a certain period, varying from one subfamily to another, depending on how badly they disrespected Benjamin that day.The news didn't just stay within the prime estate, though. It began leaking to the various conglomerates directly under

    [Pick me up. It's fine. I've got a message for you.]Veronica and her parents were left a bit wary about this. Though they were away from the prime estate, their private estate was still just as protected as the many other estates outside the prime one. This also included cyber security, and yet, here she stood with her family, picking up a phone that had just been hacked by an unknown source. The advanced automatic hack detectors that have long been installed in this estate didn't go off at all. If nothing else, this proves that the hacker knew how to bypass many of the security systems there.Veronica shared a look with her parents as she was now holding the phone. She whispered to them.“What do I do now?”A few seconds later, the phone in her hand suddenly blasted with a warning sign, making Veronica and her parents jolt once again in fear. Still, Veronica held onto that phone, determined to get to the bottom of this.Then the blaring sign stopped, and the screen turned distorte
