It was all for show! He walks over to the kitchen and brings some champagne and glasses. Something to calm her down. She is so shaken by the news that there are tears in her eyes. She drinks some of the wine and places her hand underneath her nose. “I know, it's a lot.” Gray chuckles. “But you never told me anything sir.” Alice shakes her head. “I would have helped you.” “Alice, I didn't tell you anything because that could get you into trouble. They tried to kill me, you would have died if you knew about my plan.” Alice sighs as she drinks some more. He is telling the truth though, she might be so skilled in combat and is also a trained soldier, but the truth is that the military and the go

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

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

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?

Your husband just needs to be somewhere and we will bring him back in one piece.” Stacy doesn't believe them, she brags her phone and immediately threatens to call the police on them. Gray immediately holds her hand and calms her down. “Don't worry, Stacy, I will be fine.” “No, they look like very shady people!” She shakes her head. “I will call the police immediately!” Gray smiles at her. “Don't worry yourself, okay? I am more than capable of taking care of myself. I will be back by evening.” Stacy doesn't want him to go, but since he has assured her that he is going to be fine, she has no other chance to let him go. “Please

The news of the Mars reappearing spreads like wildfire, and soon, Westland is filled with talks again. Everyone made peace with the fact that the savior was dead for months, so how is he alive now?! He didn't come back to tell them that he was alive, and that he was going to save them from the enemies, Deholt, instead he seems to have become their friend! Different theories start to fly around, everyone tries to come up with rational explanations for this. “The Mars must have become corrupt. That's why he is taking side with the enemies.” “Maybe the government betrayed him.

Stacy finds herself shedding tears when her mother-in-law is set to leave. Even though they did not start on the right foot, they have grown very close to each other. She is wiping her tears as she helps her mother-in-law pack her clothes into her only suitcase. “Maybe we should speak to Gray again. I don't want you to leave, I want you to stay here for even a year.”“Stacy, don't be silly. Don't get me wrong, I love staying here with you, but I also love staying alone in my house.” Mrs Lance smiles sweetly at her. “But what happens to me when the time comes for me to give birth? My biological mother is dead, so who is going to hold my hand through the labour?” she wonders. Mrs Lance kisses her cheek. “Don't worry, my daughter. I have trained Gray to be the best husband, and I know that he is going to treat you well. I will come back, if I can, but no matter what, you are going to do great.” Once they are finished, Stacy insists on taking the suitcase downstairs, to where Willi

Mrs Lance feels like her dear son is telling her a joke, but he has the most serious look on his face. “Haha! How funny, Gray! You think because I am old, I am going to be able to believe everything?” She laughs. “How are you the richest man in the world? How am I supposed to believe it?” “You don't have to, mum.” Gray says. “Just know that you don't have to worry about me having a better job, because everyone in this building is on my payroll.” Her smile disappears and her heart jumps immediately. What if he is not lying?She gets closer to him, staring into his eyes, but she doesn't see an iota of lie in them. “Oh my God!” She holds her hands over her mouth. “Please, Gray, tell you that you are joking.” Gray sighs and rubs his fingers over his forehead. “It's hard to believe, I know, but if you remember how I worked hard, how I studied for multiple degrees at the same time, if you remember how much sleepless nights I have put into this, then you will know that it's not just any

Why did you lie to me? What are you even looking for in this p

Mrs Lance doesn't tell anyone, but she stands up very early the next morning and writes a heartfelt letter addressed to the anonymous trillionaire. After she is done with the letter, she puts it in an envelope and seals it. The sun rises quickly, and soon, Stacy comes to the door and knocks on it before opening it. “Good morning, mum!” Stacy beams with happiness. Her and Gray's mother are now so close that she now addresses her like her mother. This pleases Stacy so much because she was very close to her mother before she died, so this is like God has given her a second chance. “Good morning, my lovely daughter.” Mrs Lance says.

General Landon Hayes doesn't know how to thank Gray for doing him a favour and agreeing to come here. “Honestly, Mars, I don't know what I would have done without you. If we had gone to war without your strong training, we would have fatally lost everything.” He shakes his head “Come on, General Hayes, you are not going to give me all the credit. These people were already well trained by you, I just did a little polishing.” “Nonsense.” General Landon Hayes snorts. “Thank you, man. This is a debt that I would never be able to pay.” Gray inhales and slips his hands into his pockets. “Who knows? One day, I might need a humongous favour from you. We can't tell.” “And I will do all I can to repay you when that day comes.” The two men shake hands. The rest of the Generals are waiting and they all shake hands with Gray respectfully, even those they are old enough to be his fathers.
