Amanda went limp, she was unsteady. Fortunately, Vera caught her before she fell."Mom, are you okay?"Amanda just shook her head slowly. She looked at William, thinking that he was useless and also just a nuisance to Vera. Lately he had given Amanda a lot of evidence, but she was still reluctant to accept that William was not the loser she thought he was.Now he's meeting with the big boss of a business in their country. One of the richest in their country was William's grandfather and it was clearly recognized before his eyes."Welcome to my home, Mrs. Lyn and my granddaughter-in-law." Lucas Anderson welcomed her graciously.Vera was still holding her mother but she couldn't take her eyes off Lucas.Lucas smacked William on the head, scolding him. "I told him to reveal his identity a long time ago, but he deliberately hid it."William grinned. Then he said to Amanda, "Mrs. Lyn, I apologize for only introducing my family to you now. I hope that from today I will be well received. Ple
In a big meeting that celebrates none other than the new director of JL. CORP Sarah gets an invitation from Amanda to come. At the same time, Vera also invited all her college friends to come.Sarah didn't know anything about what was really going on. She had only just heard that William had made Amanda no longer serve as director. She's been replaced. Now she's just the business supervisor. Sarah talks about this as a bad thing about William.When Vera tries to get William to join them, Sarah gives her a concerned look.Jordan says, "Vera, you should divorce your husband."Vera furrowed her brow. "Divorce my husband?""That's right, Vera," Sarah continued. "You're so heartless to stay married to a husband who has already displaced your mother from her former position."William smiled at that. He said, "Sarah, my mother-in-law got a higher position if you must know. Anyway, I did it because I thought it was time for JL. CORP to do better and for my mother-in-law to rest and enjoy the
The clock on the wall at the Johnson family's luxurious residence read 9pm. At that time, everyone had been partying to celebrate the birthday of the eldest son in the house. Jordan. William, who was in the kitchen, was not allowed to enter the party. Yes, he was just the adopted son of the late Daniel Johnson. Since his arrival, he had never been accepted by Sheryl, the hostess, or her two sons Mickey and Jordan."Hey, Riffraff!" Jordan called out to him.William just stared at him."What are you doing, staying in the kitchen! Look at that in front, the glasses are dirty. Go get them! You're useless." Jordan cursed."I have a stomach ache," William complained. The smell of alcohol wafting everywhere; the crumbs of messy food, and also the very noisy music made William's stomach acid seem to rise. Just now, he threw up. However, it seemed like his complaints would be ignored by Jordan. Ever since his late father had brought him home, Jordan, as well as the others, thought William was
Lucas Anderson is his GrandfatherThe stranger on the phone explained to William who he really was. As it turns out, his father, William, was the sole heir of the Anderson Global Group all along. Unfortunately, when William was 8 years old, an accident resulted in his parents' death and William's disappearance. Lucas Anderson had been trying to find his grandson and mobilized all the media to find William. Unfortunately, the search was really difficult. There were so many people who deceived Lucas, that in the end the search for William was fruitful. When William was 12 years old, he was with Daniel Johnson, a generous doctor in Engelwood City.At first, Lucas Anderson wanted to take William back to his home. However, on the advice of Julian Winter, his confidant, Lucas decided it was better to let William stay there. William had to get a natural education about how to value life, value money and also about real hard work. And all this time he was never really alone. Julian, his lawy
"Alright," William thought. Since Jordan didn't want to give him his old clothes anymore, William had to buy new ones. The same goes for his college books. He would go to a store to buy clothes.William deliberately chose a grocery store. He bought a few pieces and then immediately paid at the cashier. Who would have thought, when he was shopping, he met Mickey. Actually, in terms of age, the young man was younger than William, but he didn't show any politeness at all when he met him."What are you doing here? How dare a hobo like you show the bridge of your nose in front of my eyes," Mickey said.William just rolled his eyes. "Do you think I'm so out of work that I had to follow you here?" he asked rhetorically. "Of course I have my own business and I just wanted to buy some clothes, so it has nothing to do with you."Offended by this, Mickey said, "You're shameless! You already ruined my brother's birthday party and now you're ruining my day! It's really bad luck to be your foster b
Mickey, was surprised by William's recent talk of buying the expensive bag. 13,000 dollars was not a small amount. Even those who had just moved to Chicago, after years of living in the village, still had to think hundreds of times to be able to buy a bag with such an expensive price. How could someone who had just bought clothes at the grocery store have the audacity to pay that much?Mickey realized that he was being lied to by William. "Stop wasting time, William!"Rose who said she would help with the payment suddenly became silent. She also thought, how could she fall for this man's shabby clothes?"If you continue to live like this, it will only make my late father ashamed of having raised you as a son!""What's wrong with that?" William asked in surprise. "I wanted to buy this bag for your mother, why are you protesting now?""Of course I'm protesting! Because you lied to all of us here! Don't you think this is embarrassing?" Mickey bluffed."I'm not lying to you," William show
William smiled with satisfaction. This was the first time he had won a money deal and imagined Mickey having to kneel in front of him. However, he also had to hold back his laughter when he saw the man kneeling in front of him with a pale face."Never mind, get up," William said after a while of enjoying the moment. Before Mickey got up, William had already apologized to the store manager for making a scene. The store manager was almost threatened with dismissal if William didn't forgive his dismissive attitude.Now his life has changed after all he knows his true identity. No one can insult him anymore. William is no longer a beggar that they can belittle like before.Speaking of the bag, William actually wanted to leave it to Mickey but he changed his mind because it was certain that the man would not accept the fact that this was a gift from William.He came to the house himself and gave it to Josy, Sheryl's housekeeper.William came to Sheryl's house, where she was relaxing while l
Vera felt her heart racing as she pressed the call button. Her cell phone felt heavy in her hand because she was thinking about someone. Who else but William. The news about him had spread among their college friends, and it wasn't good. It was about him being kicked out of his host family's house.Vera couldn't make it to Jordan's event. Hence, not knowing anything about Willliam's news. Now she couldn't avoid the worry that was growing inside her."Hello, Vera?" William's familiar voice finally came from the other side of the line. He seemed to be doing well, much to Vera's relief."Will, I heard you're no longer living at your foster parents' house?" asked Vera matter-of-factly. She had known for a long time that William was only an adopted son and had never made a big deal out of it. Being adopted doesn't make William look bad.There was a moment of silence before William answered her question. "Yes, that's right," he said in a calm voice."Where are you now?" Vera asked again. He
