Fame Building System Chapter 18
Christopher's eyes bulged out from his eye socket at the truth that lay right before him."But how is that even possible?" He thought in his head, still trying to place two and two together.But the more he tried to think about the scenario, the more disjunct his thoughts seemed to have become.He paired upwards to cross the eyes of Mrs. Andrea, blazing with so much anger, and those of Victoria, dangling with a smirk.Mrs. Andrea made her way towards the noisy system that was right before her and turned it off.The sound of the machine soon flooded away from their hearing, and all their attention was focused directly on Christopher.Soon, Christopher heard a loud ding in his head that made him pause, right to the point that he was standing.[Host chance to peak skill activated. ][Mind reading skill activated][Skill duration: twenty-four hours][System directive: Through this skill, the host will be able to read the thoughts of two people at a time, but to unlock this skill, two VIP

The shock that clouded their faces knew no bounds, especially for Victoria. I am still staring at the scene in disbelief.Her heart pulled off a race while Mrs. Andrea was sweating profusely by the edge of the office, not able to establish words to express her shock.Victoria sped off swiftly towards the machine that lay right before her. "It just had to be a mistake." These were the thoughts that filled up her mind.She rebooted the system a couple of times, but the notification that was already revealed on it would not change even for a single moment."Do you also think that the machine is wrong after all that you have seen?" His eyebrows farrowed as Victoria pulled away from the machine with a defeated look on her face.There was awkwardness in the room as nobody opened their mouths to spit out even a single word.Cold chills went down the spine of Mrs. Andrea as she walked gradually towards Christopher, opening her mouth to speak.But before she could let out a single word, he wav

It took them a while to recover from the shock that ran through the hall. Mrs. Lewis's eyes brightened.She had seen a lot of rich men streaming into the place, but someone who could afford such an amount in a blink meant that he had his network running into millions.For the first time, she recognized his face.Thoughts were already running through her mind. He had the perfect structure that could pass for a Greek god.The perfect shape and a handsome face. All those years, her stares were only directed at how well dressed he was, and she never noticed how handsome she looked.She liked him immediately.She pushed through a smile as she walked forward towards him, pushing all her features out so that he was going to notice."I wish that you really knew that I could read your thoughts." There was a dark smile behind the emotionless expression that was written all over his face."Come with me, sir; I will make things ready immediately." She said,Following her closely from behind, Chri

At first, there was silence in the place, followed by a thick outburst of laughter that flooded into the void of the night."Are you for real now?" They laughed even harder, clutching to their already aching stomachs."And who else do you think will have the potential to win this award, Mr. Know It All?" Henry inquired with a fake sense of aHe drew a really deep breath at first before he went ahead to say."It could be anyone. It could even be me." He responded swiftly.His next words sped off another round of epic laughter through the hall almost immediately."We aren't really ever going to be free from this delusional freak, are we?" Henry let out a cry of both mockery and despair."Just take a good look at yourself. Do you even feel that you are worthy enough to lick the dust of the person who won the award?" Gerald added to the words.Christopher wished that he could tell them the worth of the person that was sitting right before them, but he knew that there was no need for that.

Christopher thought about it for a while, but he knew that human life mattered more than any other task.Drawing his last breath, he shot a quick stare at the resident and back to the direction of the sound.He had already made his decision as he turned away from the building in the direction of the sound.As he walked, the way that he led seemed to go darker and steeper, sending cold chills of fear down his spine.His heart was beating so loudly that the sound of it was rising up to his ears.Finally, he got to a really deserted area and caught a lady in the company of two other men who were already losing the tie around their belts.Streams of sweat flooded from her eyes almost immediately as she continued to plead, but they would not listen to a single word that she had to say."Shut up, your bitch!" They growled at her, giving her a slap on the face.Christopher carefully assessed the situation; they were armed, but it was not too heavy. Just a dagger and a pocket knife.But he kn

Eric's face was hot red with anger, while as for Christopher, he was already fed up for the day and not ready to take any shit from anyone. Eric raised his head and took a glance at him from his head to his toe. He didn't even look like someone who had any prominent social status. Eric thought that there was certainly no way that he would be able to get the company. "You think I am here for children's play? What are you trying to do? To mock me or something." He gloated. "Can you even afford three square meals daily to talk less about acquiring a company?" He continued. "Says someone who could not manage a company and wanted to sell it off?" Christopher responded. There, hate and anger between the two of them brewed even more. Just then, a cracking sound came from the door that seemed to avert their hateful glares for a while. A lady walked through the door, and, pairing further in her direction, Christopher was hit by the sudden sense of recognition. "Sister. Where have you b

Eric rushed down to the phone and snapped it off from the hands of Rachael."What did you just say?" He inquired once again, wanting to hear the words for himself."Sir, I said we just got a transfer of about one hundred thousand dollars. Is there a problem?" Her voice seemed worried from the other end.He opened up his mouth to speak, but his words soon broke out into stutters, and he ended the call on the spot.Now his gaze was fixed on Christopher, as nobody knew what to do or say. Eric opened his mouth to speak again, but words failed him almost immediately."Now that it's been confirmed, can we go ahead with the process so that you will stop wasting my time? I don't have much of it to spare." He said that, and Eric nodded his head swiftly."We would do just that." Eric was finally able to hide the shame and embarrassment that clouded his mind.He pulled away from the point where he was standing while Rachael went ahead to entertain him.She was gradually recovering from the shock

Chapter 161 (Finale)
The man—male—down the alley was Skull .After ten years, after all the executions and burnings, a Skull male was prowling toward her. Pure, solid Skull . There was no escaping him as he emerged from the shadows yards away. The vagrant in the alcove and the others along the alley fell so quiet Mia could again hear those bells ringing in the distant mountains.Tall, broad-shouldered, every inch of him seemingly corded with muscle, he was a male blooded with power. He paused in a dusty shaft of sunlight, his silver hair gleaming.As if his delicately pointed ears and slightly elongated canines weren’t enough to scare the living shit out of everyone in that alley, including the now-whimpering madwoman behind Mia , a wicked-looking tattoo was etched down the left side of his harsh face, the whorls of black ink stark against his sun-kissed skin.The Morse codes could easily have been decorative, but she still remembered enough of the Skull language to recognize them as words, even in such a

What she wants?Mia wasn’t naive. She knew very well that Christopher wouldn’t be able to get out of this mess without her. It seemed he had made the mistake of angering Arthur and at least, she was able to help him. Even if it meant giving up her own freedom.Why she was so nice to the same man who had abandoned her many times when she needed him but now she felt the urge to give herself up to help him… she didn’t know. But he was her brother and she felt somewhat responsible for him.“I… I want my brother safe,” she began to speak after a moment's pause. “I want him to leave alive. I want to see him leave alive and for your men to never go after him again.”“And in return, you’ll take my offer,” he mused. Mia nodded and the smirk on Arthur’s face widened.“That’s a deal,” he responded, his tone final. Mia felt a little bit of relief, even though her heart pounded in her chest.Then, his hand snaked up her arm and she gasped at how warm his palm was on her cool skin. Up her arm, to h

The next morning Mia and the Emissary set off to the King's palace. She had figured out a way to get back without any suspicion and while she had instructed the Emissary to help find Thorne, it was left to her to find a means to get to the location of the Shadow Star.Stepping into the boaders, where the gigantic palace had been built upon, all Mia needed to do was to act as though she had been hurt and with her skills in pretence, no one would question her.The moment she noticed the guards were coming close to her hideout, Mia stepped out, holding one part of her arm and hissing in pain. She looked up to see the guards coming towards her direction. The moment they laid eyes on her, one of them rushed over to help steady her body. Mia looked to see the others moving to her hideout to figure out how she had arrived. As they arrived at the entrance of the mansion, some of the soldiers also rushed over to help her and while they head into the luxurious living room, Mia over hears one o

Anna was taken out of the underground in silence to live in Christopher's mansion and resume the underground at night when she's well rested.Her room was beside Devon's room and well furnished, equally as his own, with luxurious closets large enough to open a boutique.Anna could not stop exclaiming and thought of exactly what was going on.It was the third day she was taking Christopher home after the night she passed out without seeing Christopher himself. She was left alone in the room, only to be taken care of by maids attending to her needs. She needs fresh air, at least, but at the same time, she is scared of breaking the rules.That morning, she had just showered up early and was creaming her body before Christopher walked into her half-nakedness.It was nothing to Christopher, as he has seen her that way several times, but the amusing part is the fact that Anna was covering her body and not throwing herself at him."Out of your clothes! Like right now, put it off." Christop

“How dare you?" Christopher roared like a lion as the champagne got emptied on his dress and flowed freely down his pants. Anna shook terribly, looking for napkins to clean Christopher's suits and shoes. She just emptied a glass of champagne."I'm terribly sorry! I wa---sss" Anna stuttered, trying to complete her words, when Christopher dragged her hair and pulled her up. "You are here to pay your brother's debt, but it's obvious you're not capable!. "Christopher said with a very intimidating voice, letting out goosebumps on Maria's neck."Please, I feel weak! '' Anna begged amidst her tears. She had never felt this way in her entire life, looking for means of survival.She felt her strength leaving her and let her body fall on Devon's hold.Everyone in the VIP room's eyes widened."This baby is indeed grounded!" One of them commented and signaled Christopher to take Anna's body away from him.Before they could move, Christopher gave them a shock. He carried Anna himself to his cl

Without doing extra training between the stacks, Mia found herself less exhausted when she left the library. Christopher had retrieved her from Windhaven after two and a half hours, and she’d already been so bored sitting in Rhys’s mother’s house that she’d nearly smiled to see him. But Christopher ’s face had been tight, his eyes cold and distant, and he’d barely spoken to her when Rhys had appeared. Rhys had barely spoken to her, either, but that was to be expected. It was better if they didn’t speak at all.Yet Christopher hadn’t said more than “I’ll see you later” before leaving again with Rhys after the High Lord had brought them back to the House of Wind, his face still tight and angry.With the extra energy buzzing through her that night, wondering incessantly why Christopher had been so upset, Mia didn’t feel like eating in her room and falling asleep. So she found herself in the doorway of the dining room.Christopher was lounging in his chair, a glass of wine in his hand, st

Hoping Virgil wouldn’t come shove him over the railing for disobeying her orders, he said, “All right. Throw the right hook.”Mia did so. And dropped her damn elbow.“Get back into position.” She did, and he asked, “May I?”Mia nodded, and kept perfectly still as he made minute adjustments to the angle of her arm. “Punch again. Slowly.”She heeded him, and his hand wrapped around her elbow as it began to dip. “See? Keep this up.” He maneuvered her arm back into starting position. “Don’t forget to flow the weight through your hips.” He took her arm, keeping a good foot of distance between their bodies, and moved it through the punch. “Like this.”“All right.” Mia reset herself, and he took a step away. Without his order, she did the punch again. Perfectly.Christopher whistled.“Do that with more force and you’ll shatter a male’s jaw,” he said with a crooked grin. “Give me a combination one-two, then four-five-three, then one-one-two.”Mia ’s brows bunched as she reset herself.

Five days later, Christopher sat before the desk of the library’s high priestess and watched her enchanted pen move. He’d met Virgil a few times over the centuries—found she had a dry, wicked sense of humor and a soothing presence. He’d made a point not to stare at her hands, or at the face he’d only seen once, when Mor had brought her in so long ago. It had been so battered and bloody it hadn’t looked like a face at all.He had no idea how it had healed beneath the hood. If Madja had been able to save it in a way she hadn’t been able to save Virgil ’s hands. He supposed it didn’t matter what she looked like, not when she had accomplished and built so much with Rhys and Mor within this library. A sanctuary for females who’d endured such unspeakable horrors that he was always happy to carry out justice on their behalf.His mother had needed a place like this. But Rhys had established it long after she’d left this world. He wondered if Azriel’s mother had ever considered coming here, or

Curled up in bed, a book propped on the thick down comforter, Mia was just getting to the sizzling first kiss in her latest novel when a knock thudded on her door.She slammed the book shut and sat up against the pillows. “Yes?”The handle turned, and there he was.Christopher still wore his leathers, the overlapping scales of them full of shadows that made him look like some great, writhing beast as he shut the door.He leaned against the carved oak, his wings rising high above his head like twin mountain peaks.“What?” She slid the book onto the nightstand, sitting up further. His eyes dipped to her sleeveless silk nightgown, then quickly returned to her face. “What?” she demanded again, angling her head. Her unbound hair slid over a shoulder, and she saw him mark that, too.His voice was rough as he said, “I’ve never seen you with your hair down.”She always wore it braided across her head or pinned up. She frowned at the locks that flowed to her waist, the gold amongst the brown g
