Embracing Wealth: The Exceptional Raymond Lawson Chapter 1
“Master Raymond, just take the card. You’re a trillionaire. If you don’t believe me, go to the bank and check the balance yourself. The password is your birthday.”The elegant woman placed a sleek black card on the desk, her tone firm but polite. After being told to leave for the fifth time, she finally gave up trying to convince Raymond.With a deep bow—practically folding herself in half—she turned and walked out without another word,got in a luxurious sports car.Raymond sighed and gave the card a quick glance before putting it into his pocket casually. Seriously? She expected him to believe he was the missing chairman of the country’s biggest conglomerate?What a load of nonsense.Sure, there were parts of his past he couldn’t remember, but there was no way he was some billionaire big shot.Shaking his head, he pushed the thought aside. Right now, he had more important things to worry about—like getting back to work at the restaurant.Today is his anniversary with his wife Dahli
Embracing Wealth: The Exceptional Raymond Lawson Chapter 2
Staring at Raymond’s back, Dahlia’s lips parted slightly, surprise flashing across her face.She hadn’t expected him to let go so easily, without argument or demands.However, for a moment, she felt a pang of loss, a strange emptiness she couldn’t quite name.But she convinced herself that this was the right decision.Their lives were heading in different directions, and there was no point in holding onto a relationship that no longer worked.After leaving the restaurant, Raymond wandered on the street, not knowing where to go.Was money really that important?He clenched his fists and let out a bitter laugh.However at that moment, that woman Sophia's words suddenly occurred to him.“You’re a trillionaire. If you don't believe me, check the balance.”Trillionaire?He frowned. Though it seemed absurd to him, it wouldn't hurt if he went to check it out.After all, he had nothing else to lose.Without wasting any more time he grabbed his jacket, and placed the card in his pocket heading

The security guards, tall and imposing in their uniforms, approached quickly.At that moment one of them stepped forward, his expression neutral but authoritative. “Sir, we’ve received a report of an assault. I need you to come with us.”Raymond raised his hands slightly, showing him the card, his voice steady. “I didn’t assault anyone. I’m here to conduct business at this bank.”Seeing the card in his hand, the security guard was shocked and stopped immediately.“A Supreme Black Card?” his eyes widened, skepticism clear in his tone. “Is this true?”This was the highest level card in this bank and this was the first time that he had ever seen it in person.But when looking at Raymond again, he hesitated. He didn’t look like a man who could own such a card at all.At this moment, Dahlia’s mother’s laughter rang out, sharp and cutting through the air like a blade.“Oh come on, stop lying! The supreme black card belongs to the most powerful people in the world. Do you really think anyo

Dahlia’s mother and sister stood in stunned silence, their faces pale. The weight of Malisa’s words hit them like a hammer, shattering their arrogance into fragments.“Revoked?” Dahlia’s mother stammered, her voice trembling. “you can’t do this,” Dahlia’s sister sputtered, her earlier sneer replaced by wide-eyed disbelief. Her voice cracked, but Malisa’s icy glare stopped her from saying more.Malisa’s lips curled into a faint, cold smile. “I already have.” The scene felt heavier as the gravity of their loss sank in. Membership at this bank wasn’t just about convenience—it was a symbol of status, of power, and losing it was a blow that would echo across their social and business lives. For a family that thrived on connections and reputation, this was devastation.“Madam, please—” Dahlia’s mother begged, her voice faltering, but Malisa’s icy gaze froze her mid-sentence.“Don’t waste my time,” Malisa said sharply, cutting her off. “You’ve already wasted enough of it.”Dahlia’s sister

His breath caught in his throat as he stared at the screen.He instinctively took a step back. “This… this has to be a mistake.”Malisa, standing beside him, leaned in slightly to confirm the balance for herself.Immediately her eyes widened, but she quickly masked her surprise with a composed smile. “There won't be any mistakes, Mr. Raymond."Raymond leaned back, his mind racing. That woman hadn't lied. He was indeed wealthy, so it meant that what she said about his past might be true…But why did he lose his memory? What happened to him? Was there any conspiracy behind this?His eyes narrowed. He would find these things out and take back everything that belonged to him!Then Raymond glanced at Malisa, gave her a brief nod. “Thanks for stepping in back there. I wasn’t expecting things to get that out of hand.”Malisa offered a polite smile, her tone light yet professional. “It was no big deal, Mr. Raymond. They were completely out of line, and the situation needed to be handled.”

“Then why are you here?” she demanded, believing he was just lying.“To attend the auction,” Raymond replied simply, his voice steady.Immediately Dahlia’s jaw tightened, disbelief flashing across her face. “You’re attending the auction?” she repeated, as if the words themselves were ridiculous. “Raymond, do you even hear yourself? You’re making a fool of yourself. Just return the card and stop this before it gets worse.”Raymond’s gaze remained steady, his voice calm but firm. “I don’t need your concern, Dahlia. You’ve already made it clear where we stand.”Seeing Raymond's attitude Caleb smirked with disdain.“You should leave,” he said, his tone dripping with superiority. “This place isn’t for people like you. You’ll only embarrass yourself further. And Dahlia—stop wasting your time on him. The last thing you need is to be associated with his mess. It’s wise of you to have dumped him. No women would like to be with such trash!”However, before Raymond could respond, a voice cut th

Dahlia’s hands tightened around her clutch, but she forced her face to remain calm, trying to ignore the fact that Raymond had moved on with someone who looked far more capable and connected than she had imagined.But so what? He was still trying to rely on women to make a living.Thinking of that, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes. She snorted, forcing herself to look away, and entered the hall with Caleb.As they entered the glittering hall, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement. Chandeliers cast a warm glow over the room, and the murmurs of influential voices filled the space. They knew the kind of connection Caleb, and his family can control.And they would do anything to be in his favor for any kind of collaboration from them.Caleb, standing tall beside Dahlia, soaked it all in. His self-assured smirk widened as several guests approached them, eager to greet him.“Mr. Caleb!” A middle-aged man in a tailored suit extended his hand with a wide smile. “It’s an honor t

Upon hearing what Raymond just said.Caleb’s face darkened, his jaw tightening as he glared at Raymond. It was clearly a deliberate provocation to him. “Yours? Well, let’s see how you can get it, loser!” He smirked scornfully, already planning to teach him a harsh lesson later.His fingers tapped rhythmically against the armrest of his chair as resentment bubbled beneath his composed exterior. The other guests exchanged amused glances, their laughter muffled but unmistakable. They whispered among themselves, eager to witness the inevitable embarrassment they believed Raymond was walking into.“Such arrogance,” one man muttered, shaking his head. “Let’s see how he plans to follow through.”“I know he’s all talk,” another woman said, leaning in to her companion. “This will be entertaining.”Not long after the auction finally began, the room fell into an anticipatory hush as the first items were introduced. Lavish jewelry, rare antiques, and expensive art pieces were displayed one a

Waylon’s hatred for Raymond deepened like a wound left to rot.As he paced the floor of his private study, his eyes bloodshot, fists clenched at his sides, he couldn’t suppress the fury building inside him.‘Raymond’He couldn't believe that damn man had appeared at just the right time to ruin everything. Again.“First, he’d taken the spotlight in healing Malisa's grandfather, Then, he had miraculously stopped Malisa from talking to him before. Now… now, he’d interfered with a plan that I had spent days carefully crafting—a plan meant to make Malisa mine, whether she wanted it or not.”Immediately Waylon slammed his fist into the oak table, cracking the polished surface.“Raymond…” he growled through gritted teeth. “I don’t care who you are, or what you can do—sooner or later, I’ll find a way to eliminate you.”But even in his seething rage, Waylon wasn’t done with Malisa.His obsession in using her to get her family wealth ran too deep.“I’ll still marry her, and get what I want no

Then Raymond pulled out a handkerchief and gently wiped the remaining sweat from her forehead.“I suspect the same person responsible for poisoning your grandfather… also drugged you tonight.”Malisa looked at him, her expression tightening with focus.Raymond continued, his tone clipped but clear, like he was putting pieces together out loud.“The symptoms you displayed—the rapid pulse, flushed skin, mental disorientation—were almost identical to what I observed in your grandfather, only more concentrated and faster-acting. His poisoning was slow and hidden over time, meant to weaken him gradually. Yours was abrupt, meant to take effect within minutes. But the toxin base was the same. The way it attacked the internal balance… the method of disruption... it all followed the same structure.”He narrowed his eyes slightly.“Whoever created the original poison likely just modified it. This wasn’t random—it was personal. And well-prepared.”Upon hearing what Raymond just said Malisa’s eye

After leaving the store, Raymond and Malisa entered the car. The doors closed with a soft click, shutting out the outside world, and the convoy of luxury vehicles rolled into motion.At that moment the cabin was quiet—only the soft hum of the engine and the faint breath of air-conditioning. Malisa sat beside Raymond, composed as ever… At first, but not long after, her breathing began to shift.It started as a slight twitch in her fingers—then her shoulders shifted, and her back subtly arched.Then she started fanning herself gently with her hand, even though the air inside the car was cool.Raymond turned to her.“You alright?” he asked, his tone low.However Malisa didn’t answer. Her lips were slightly parted now, her breaths shallow.At that moment a light sheen of sweat glistened at the base of her neck. Her chest rose and fell rapidly beneath her fitted silk blouse.Then she turned her face toward him, and Raymond immediately noticed—her eyes had gone hazy, unfocused, as if her bo

Outside Celestium Vault, the arrival of over a dozen luxury vehicles had drawn a growing crowd of onlookers. Curious pedestrians paused, phones raised, recording the fleet of black cars lined up in perfect formation. The black-suited bodyguards, the commanding woman who entered with an air of untouchable authority, and finally, the mysterious man who emerged shortly after, casually stepping into one of the lead vehicles under the respectful escort of the guards—it was the kind of scene usually reserved for royalty or billionaires.One onlooker captured the entire moment, zooming in as Raymond entered the car. Though his face wasn’t visible, the way he carried himself—calm, powerful, indifferent to all the attention—was unforgettable.The video went viral within hours of posting it.“Who is this man?”“Look at those cars! That’s not money—that’s status.”“He’s definitely someone from the upper circle... maybe even more.”“Does anyone recognize him? He doesn’t look like any of the known

Hearing what they just said, Raymond stood firm in front of the counter, not even sparing the woman a full glance.“I saw it first,” he said, his tone calm and cold, like the closing of a vault. “And I said I’m taking it. I don’t hand over what’s already mine.”Immediately the woman blinked in disbelief. “What did you say?” Her voice rose in shrill surprise, as if she couldn’t comprehend someone like him refusing her. “Are you deaf or just poor? This isn’t a street market!”However Raymond remained unmoved, his expression completely flat.“Just a loud one you're,” he murmured, as if speaking to himself.The man beside her stepped forward, chuckling mockingly. “You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that. But guts don’t pay for premium crystals. You sure you can afford this, champ?”Raymond turned to them now, slowly, his gaze sharp and piercing. “I don’t need to prove anything to a man hiding behind his wallet... or his mistress.”Raymond's words made the woman gasp. Her mouth opened in offe

After Resolving the hellish nightmare Jefferson had orchestrated, Raymond carried Dahlia to a safe resting place in one of his secluded properties nearby. He laid her gently on the bed and examined her injuries.She had three broken fingers which he had already taken care of, there were bruises on her wrists where she had been bound, slight swelling on her cheek from Kelly’s slap, and minor abrasions from being dragged around by Jefferson. Fortunately, despite the brutality she endured, there were no internal injuries or signs of deeper harm.At that moment Raymond finally let out a breath of relief.He cleaned her wounds with practiced care, his movements gentle yet precise. Then he Applied a salve made from spiritual herbs he had refined earlier, he treated her as delicately as if she were glass. Though his face remained calm, inwardly he was still simmering. If he had arrived a second later…He shook the thought away.As he wrapped her injuries in clean bandages, Dahlia stirred fa

“THRUMMMM!”A shockwave of pure divine energy burst into Kelly’s body.“CRACK—CRACK—CRACK!”His veins exploded like overfilled pipes. Blood gushed from his eyes, mouth, nose, and ears, painting the ground beneath him.His body convulsed violently.At that moment Raymond leaned in. “That herb you wanted?”Kelly’s eyes trembled.Raymond sneered. “You were never worthy of it.”With one final pulse of golden energy, Kelly’s heart exploded inside his chest.Immediately the body fell limp, Kelly collapsed like a broken doll, steam rising from his charred corpse, Dead.At that moment the silence that followed was deafening.Jefferson, who had been full of smug laughter seconds earlier, now started in mute horror, then his knees buckled.“U-Uncle Kelly…?”Raymond slowly turned his gaze on him.At that moment Jefferson snapped out of his shock with a wild, desperate scream and lunged toward Dahlia's unconscious body.He dragged her upright, her head limp against his chest, one arm squeezing ti

Behind them, dozens of subordinates encircled the room their weapon raised, undermining what had just happened to one of them, but still they couldn't disobey.Kelly stepped forward. “Give me the herb, Raymond. Hand it over peacefully—or I’ll slaughter you, and feed your woman’s soul to the mist. It’ll be slow. She’ll feel everything.”At that moment Raymond’s gaze shifted to Dahlia.However he said nothing, then—he laughed.A cold, sharp, dismissive laugh that echoed louder than any of Kelly’s threats.“You think this is power?” he said finally, his voice low and clean like polished steel. “Sacrificing your own people... poisoning yourself to taste strength that doesn't belong to you? That’s not cultivation. That’s rot.”Hearing Raymond words Kelly’s grin faltered, he couldn't believe the bastard still has the guts to talk back at him.Raymond stepped forward, calm and fearless, his presence expanding like a tidal wave. “You’re nothing but a parasite. Feeding off the weak to feel str

At that moment laughter erupted behind him.“She’s got a fight in her,” one of them said, eyes dark with lust. “It’s gonna be fun.”“She’s even prettier up close,” another added, stepping closer.At that moment Dahlia trembled—but not from fear. From rage. From helplessness, she couldn't believe Caleb had done this to her.She couldn’t run, she couldn’t stop them.Then Jefferson leaned in to grab her again.Not wanting Jefferson to have his way with him, immediately in a flash of movement, she drove her knee into his middle leg with every ounce of strength she had left.Immediately the impact landed he stumbled backward, coughing and groaning in pain. “You bitch!”Angrily he lunged forward again, this time his fist clenched—but before he could strike—“Enough.”The room froze.Kelly emerged from the shadows.Cold, Calculated, Dead-eyed, his voice held no anger—only disgusted impatience.“This is taking too long,” he said flatly. “If she won’t obey, then I will break her.”Upon seeing
