After he has poured himself a glass of wine and raise a glass to himself, for saving himself from the shackles of an ungrateful wife. Soon after that, he comes to Alice in the living room and says, “Come on, Alice. I know that you want us to start to get revenge, but there are other things that we need to do right now.” She immediately closes the laptop and stands up to her feet. Bowing to her boss. “At your service, general. Where are we heading to?” Gray takes out his phone and stares at the screen with a smile on his face. “The Blanchard family, Wendy's family, has invited me over for tea.” He says. “I don't know about you, but I am very curious to meet my former in-la

The girl bows repeatedly and promises not to do this again. She runs out of the living room, she is probably going to go and cry in the kitchen. Mrs Blanchard smiles brightly, like she hasn't just insulted Gray and his friend here. “Sorry, Gray, for the interruption, as we were saying….” Dan walks into the house. Dan is Wendy's elder brother. He is a married woman with two kids, but he is the laziest bump that has ever existed. He doesn't work, instead, he goes around telling people how rich his family WAS. He cheats on his wife and drinks around the city. He is also a certified Mama's boy. As soon as he walks in, he notices his ex brother-in-law and he smirks as he walks closer. “Is this Gray? In the flesh after so many years? To be honest, I think that you are dead.” He goes up to his mother, gives him a kiss and sits next to her.“Dan Blanchard,” Gray nods. “I thought that you would change, but you haven't…” Gray notices the expensive shoes and watch that Dan is putting on.

The Blanchard family is thrown into confusion when they hear this. It's true that it was Gray that rented the house for them when they were thrown into a financial crisis. He even paid rent years in advance for them, but now he is asking them to pack out and claim that he owns the place? Dan stands up and looks at his mother, as if to confirm if she heard the madness that has just come out of this man's mouth. “Have you gone mad, you stupid fool?!” Dan barks. “Because you paid a little rent for us, you think that you can order us to leave this house?!” “You can do no such thing, Gray, I bet you!” Mrs Blanchard dares him. “Besides, even if you paid the rent, so what? The rent you paid is going to expire this year and my daughter's boyfriend has said he will even pay ten more years for us!” Gray laughs because the Blanchard family has got to be one of the most stupid in the world. “You think that I am talking about rent?” He looks at them and hiss. “This is legally my house! I won

Mrs Blanchard and Brittany Blanchard goes silent at the disgraceful sight of Dan on the ground, rolling around in pain. He has just been thrown down by this tiny woman in heels! They quickly pick their jaws off the ground and gather around Dan. He is holding his waist in pain and grimacing. “Mummy! My back!” He screams and reaches out for his mother. “She messed with my back, this little bitch messed with my spinal cord!” Mrs Blanchard immediately starts to cry, “Oh, God, what can I do? Gray has brought a witch into my house and she used her black magic to throw my son to the ground! Now his back is hurting!” Dan keeps rolling around, it's a sight that disgusts Alice so much! It makes her sick to her stomach! The young soldiers program has twenty year old girls and they recover from a fall like this in second! Why is this man crying in his mother's arms?! “Oh, come on!

Alice presses her horn angrily, but the man won't move. He whistles and points at Alice's chest. “Come on, miss. I will make it worth your while!” He grins. “your number at least, you won't regret it! I have the power to change your life!” “Argh! Why won't you just go away?! I am late for an appointment and I am not interested.” The smile on the man's face is immediately turned to a frown. He can't believe that a woman said no to him very sternly. He hasn't ever been told no in his life! How can this woman reject such a handsome man as he is! He walks up to her window and leans against the car. “Do you even know who you are rejecting?” He asks with a sorry squint and a smile. “I don't know, the fucking king of England?” Alice shrugs with sarcasm. The man laughs as he moves his tongue around in his mouth. “Well, since you seem to have lost your memory, I will tell you who I am. My name is William Fleeton, I am the heir to the Fleeton billionaire company!” He expects Alice to g

William grips the phone a little too tight, he can hear his father struggling to breath at the other end of the phone. The empire that Mister Fleeton spent forty decades to build has fallen because of the foolishness of his son! William snorts at his father's words. He doesn't want to believe that he and his family are now very poor. “Dad, stop panicking, it's not that serious.” he waves off. “How can you say we are not poor? We are billionaires, even God can't make us poor overnight!” “William, you stupid boy! You don't know what you have done!” His father cries. “I have to sell all the cars quickly, before our misfortune spreads and no one will buy them. Otherwise we might not be able to afford breakfast tomorrow!” It's all a dream to William, a very bad dream that he wants to wake up from, but people start to glance at their phones as they walk past him. “It's him, the father is worth only five million now!” “Wasn't he in the club yesterday? Covering the strippers with money?

The satisfied staff gives each other high fives as they have taken care of the crazy rich kid. Gray, Jones, and Alice chuckle as they see William get thrown. Jones helps Alice with her chair, like a true gentleman. She thanks him and they all sit down to order and eat. “I must say, Gray, I was very surprised to hear that you are back in the city.I was very confused when the news said that you were missing and presumed dead. I was relieved to hear from you.” Jones says. “How is your wife, how is your family? I am sure that your wife is so happy to see you,” Gray smiles at him. “Wendy just divorced me. She said that she found a new boyfriend.” Jones' smile goes away immediately. Does Wendy know that she has just divorced the richest man in the city? Jones is one of the few people that knows about Gray being the mars, and also being the richest man in the city. He has kept this secret of his friend very tightly to himself. He knows that Gray single handedly stopped the war, but t

It's like a car showroom here. It's so expensive that Alice's poor car looks like a dump truck. She sighs as she steps out of her old jeep. She has to slam the door very hardly to get it to shut properly, this attracts the attention around them. Gray notices this and smiles at his shy assistant. “Are you okay, Alice?” He asks. “Yes, sir,” she smiles. “Just… I'm just anxious because I am meeting so many rich people.” “You will be fine, you look great.” He compliments her. They are

Stacy did not expect for him to say yes, and so easily, she couldn't believe her ears. “Are you sure, Gray?” She chuckles nervously. “It's five million dollars, that's a lot of money.” “A whole lot of money, but not for you.” He says. “Now, do you want it in cash or cheque? William can drive very quickly, he will go to the bank and get it for you–” Stacy throws herself against him sobbing as she hugs him very tightly. Where has he been all her life? She has suffered so much and many times, he fell into depression. He would have saved her so much pain. “Thank you, Gray.” She sobs. “You're the best thing that has ever happened to me. Because of you, I can attend my grandfather's remembrance party.”Gray is surprised by her hug, but he chuckles and hugs her back. “I told you already, Stacy, you're my wife and you deserve everything. Now, wipe your tears. I will attend your grandfather's remembrance party with you.” “You will?” Her eyes widen. “I will stand with you as you remem

Stacy is woken up by a phone call the next morning. Gray is not in bed with her, he slept in his study because he said that he has a lot of work. She keeps running her hands over her eyes, she can't believe what's happening. The person that is calling her is no other than Ms Pam Sanford. Pam Sanford is the name of her grandfather's personal assistant from years ago. The last time she saw Pam was when her grandfather died and the entire family had to come together for his burial. She jumps out of the bed and happily picks up the call. She can't believe that it's Pam! “Oh my God, Ms Pam!” Stacy shrieks. “Oh my sweet darling child!” Pam is so pleased. “How are you doing, Stacy?” “I am fine, Ms Pam, How are you?” she asks.“Fine, my darling. I have been living in the countryside all these years, but I am in the city because guess what?! It's the sixth anniversary of your grandfather's death!” Stacy's hand immediately goes to her chest and her eyes are immediately filled with tear

Just before two hours is done, they are done with the meeting. Gray is more than pleased with himself, he will now head back home to his wife. He glances at his wrist watch as he gets into the car and they start to drive back to the airport. “That was very quick, sir.” William smiles. “I was very time conscious. I can't break my promise to Stacy.” “She texted me because she wanted to know if I have any food that I don't care for. It looks like she is making the biggest meal.” Gray smiles and shakes his head. “That's Stacy, she is always taking care of everyone.” They are driving past the protest and Gray looks at the people with concern. He remembers being their savior, the savior that everyone thinks has gone missing, but he is going to save them. Without even showing his identity he will stand up and save them from the terrible president that is ruling them now. They come to a store and Gray asks them to stop. He goes into the shop and decides to buy something for his wif

Even the Generals are dumbfounded. They are so used to the Mars doing everything for them, that they don't even know how to strategize anymore. “That's a very good plan, sir.” The Generals look at each other and nod. “Bunch of morons! I give you many bonuses and you can't even come up with a good plan?!” The president shouts at them. “Stressing the richest man in the world to come up with a strategy for us?!” “Sorry, your Excellency.” They all bow. He turns to Gray and forces himself to smile. “Don't be angry, Mister Lance, were you in any way, in the army before this?” He asks. Gray just smiles. “I’ve shot a hunting gun a few times, if that counts as anything.” The president laughs again. This time around, he gestures for the soldiers to guard them as he starts to walk with Gray. He is done with the Generals, he wants to have a secret meeting with Gray now as they walk out of the room, and around the house. William follows him too, walking ahead of the soldiers. He will ref

They are all laughing now, Gray laughs with them so much that they think that they have finally turned the anonymous trillionaire into their friend. William is standing behind Gray, looking back and forth in an alert manner. He has never seen a room full of more scary men. These were the men that killed his father, together with this psychopath that is running this nation. “So, you took care of him, the man that is supposed to be the greatest General in the army?” Gray asks. “Yes!” The president brags. “I killed him with my own tactics, and he fell right into my trap because he is not as smart as he thinks he is!” The Generals nod in agreement. They were all jealous of the Mars and all his prowess, so they allowed the president to use them to kill him. “Well, sounds like he had to be taken care of so I am glad for that. Now, can we move to the next topic?” Gray smiles. “Yes, yes, yes…” the president nods. “We need those weapons immediately because as you can see, these little

Each time that Gray thinks that the government has shown him enough incompetence, they show him even a worst display of their stupidity! This is the same man that announced that they should go to war against the country of Deholt, the country that is known to have one of the best military in the world! If Mars was still in the army, it would have been as easy as breaking a thin twing, but now that the Mars is missing, Deholt is going to finish them off in one battle! The president, the stupid coward of a man, he angered the citizens and he has now run to hide in the basement of his mansion? He has never heard something more silly in his life! “Mister Lance, please don't think that the basement sanctuary is just a poorly dug hole in the ground, it's a very luxurious place.” The soldiers assure Gray. “I have only two hours to spend here and I am returning back to Silverview.” Gray glances at his wrist watch. “Take me to the president, right now.” They all get into the elevator and

What?! Gray cannot be in the state capital of the country tonight! He promised his wife that he is going to return for lunch! How is he supposed to return for lunch if he has to go to the capital now? “Oh, I don't think that Mrs Lance would be happy if we went to the capital together.” William shakes his head. Alice frowns at him. She hasn't warmed up to William just yet, so she casts an unfriendly glare at him. “Who said anything about you going? You are still under probation, I don't appreciate you inserting yourself in the situation!” She snaps. William immediately looks down and apologizes. He knows that Alice doesn't like him, but he knows that he must have to win her over, if he will win her over. “I'm sorry Miss Alice, I didn't mean to jump the gun like that.” “Make the plane ready immediately.” Andrew says. “We will be using the private strip and since I can't have the entire security team with me, as that will bring up suspicion, William will go with me.” “Sir, he is

Stacy is very disheartened, she can't believe that Gray is taking up such dangerous jobs to be able to provide for them. She makes up her mind that the next time she sees the anonymous trillionaire, she is going to fall on her knees and beg him to have mercy. Gray is the only one who has given her life meaning, she can't afford to lose him. She wakes up early and decides to make some breakfast for Gray and William, but as she is in the kitchen making pancakes, she immediately is attracted by the television. “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, the news reaching us from the military headquarters now is that the country of Deholt has attracted the northern part of the army.” Stacy's hand flies to her mouth in shock, she can't believe what's happening now! William and Gray descend the stairs, just waking up too. “Are you guys seeing the news?” Stacy asks with concern. “This is such a misfortune, we just won the last war and for the first time, Westland has had a little bit of pe

Stacy is shaking because all eyes are on her. She doesn't want to get involved in this, because she knows how Wendy behaves, but the ladies start to gesture to her. “Miss, is it true that you know the anonymous trillionaire?” One asks. Stacy lost her tongue for a quick second, but so that she doesn't look stupid in front of these people, she immediately musters the courage to speak up. “Well, yes.” She nods. “My husband and I, we work directly for the anonymous trillionaire!” “So, you know him personally?” “We live in his house!” This amazes everyone in the crowd. “How does one get such a privilege?” “She is so pretty, that's why the anonymous trillionaire chose her and her Mister to live in his house!” Stacy keeps a smile on her face, but she is very nervous. The ladies come to her, trying their best to become friends with her. They snap pictures with her, tagging her on social media and letting everyone know that she is an acquaintance of the anonymous trillionaire! In le
