I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 151 - Life Comes With Lots Of Twists!
As they got out of the terminal, Robert said, “I am sorry I didn’t bring a car, I usually take a taxi to work.” He admitted, a bit embarrassed.“We can reach out to our convoys. They are in this city and can get here as soon as possible.” Justin’s assistant, Mark, offered. Justin didn’t approve of that.“No, let us take a taxi.” If the CEO didn’t rate us high enough to deserve a warm reception and have the convoys prepared for us ahead, then let us give him that perception that he is right.” He really wanted to see for himself the reach of the disdain the CEO has for him.Robert, initially embarrassed, now looked relieved, and he flagged down a taxi. He had no difficulty getting one as the airport is usually filled with them.They got in, and Justin had to sit in the back with Robert, while Mark sat in front with the taxi driver. The taxi driver, a man in his fifties with a tired look, looked at them and asked, “Where to?”Robert told him the address of the office building, and the ma
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 152 - Suffering Under The Sun!
When they got to the building, Justin was amazed at its size and beautiful surface. The building was big, reflecting the wealth and influence of Drogonuv Enterprise in the city. It is tall, with sleek translucent glasses reflecting the sunlight, and a big gate that exudes power and wealth.Sensing Justin’s amazement, Robert told him to be careful as they go inside the building. Justin was confused and it was evident in the way he looked at Robert. Robert told him to alight from the Taxi first. They got down and Robert paid the taxi fare amidst insistence to pay from Justin.“Justin, I must warn you about something before we go in. The bullying here is way too much and almost like a normal thing. The powers at the top and some of the security backed up by the top guys can be a real pain in the ass. Just try to let whatever they throw at you slide. It’s the best way to get through the day here.”As Mark was about to object to such , Justin quickly nodded in agreement. “Do not worry abo
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 153 - Justin: A Senior Executive!
After standing under the sun for about thirty minutes, which was very scorching, Justin could feel the heat getting to his skin even with the suit he wore. He was beginning to get sweaty and he also noticed his friend and former classmate, Robert, trying to adjust his standing position beside him, obviously feeling uncomfortable. Same goes for Mark, although he appeared to have some form of control. When he couldn’t take it anymore, he finally asked Robert, visibly frustrated as he spoke.“We have been standing here for over thirty minutes now. Why is it taking them forever to verify a simple appointment with their CEO?”Robert was at a loss on how to answer. He glanced at the security building nervously. “Justin, I am sorry about this. They just do this to mess with us. They are just having fun at our expense. They do not consider me as someone important around here and they amuse themselves by making us wait unnecessarily.”“I am not respected around here at all”.At this point, Jus

The guards continued smirking, clearly enjoying the frustration on their faces.Justin, visibly frustrated but tried to keep himself calm. He took a deep breath, trying to keep his temper under control. He reminded himself that losing his temper would only make the guards continue their humiliation and he doesn’t want to give them that satisfaction.“It’s okay. Let us wait for a little more time.” Justin said to Robert, trying to keep his voice steady.They retreated backwards, accepting to remain outside, waiting under the hot sun. But as they waited, the frustration Justin tried to subdue tried to surface but he remained composed outwardly. He intends to handle this well and not give the guards the satisfaction of seeing him break down.Once again, Robert looked at Justin with a sorry expression. “I am sorry about all this, I really am. I just wish I had the influence to do something.”Justin shrugged. “This had nothing to do with you or your influence, Robert. These guys just lack

Justin, Robert and Mark finally relieved that they got it settled went inside, as the guards eyed them, in a mocking manner. As they walked towards the main building, they were hit by the cool air from the air condition fitted outside the walls, which felt different to the heat outside, which almost blistered their skin. The three of them were visibly stressed, the frustration of the past minutes spent at the gate evident on their faces as they walked briskly, eager to get inside and meet the CEO.When they got inside, they approached the receptionist’s desk , where a beautiful young lady was seated with her hair perfectly styled. She wore a nice suit but her expression was indifferent as she saw the trio approached. She didn’t appear like she was concerned about themShe looked up from her table and said. “Good afternoon.” her tone was indifferent as compared to how welcoming it was supposed to be. “How can I help you?”“Yes. We are here to meet with the CEO.” Justin replied, trying
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 156 - Mocking Robert!
Time seemed to drag on for eternity as Justin, Robert and Mark stood by the wall, not so far from the receptionist desk, their patience just hanging by a tiny thread.The receptionist continued to behave like they were not there, forming busy on the phone but in reality, she wasn’t making any real phone calls and if she did make any, it wasn’t in respect to the appointment the trio came for.From where Robert stood, he was feeling uncomfortable as he occasionally glance at the receptionist. Discomfort was written all over his face but he tried to be calm and maintain his composure. Mark, on the other hand, wasn’t quite composed as the unease from the whole situation was so evident all over him.Finally, the receptionist got off the phone and faced the trio, giving them full attention. She smirked as she saw Robert and addressed him, her voice filled with mockery. “Oh, Take a good look at you,” she started, her tone laced with disdain. “I didn't realize we had company.”Robert turned h

Chapter 556: Reckoning
The room was silent when Justin re-entered. His expression was cold and disbelieving. There was no need for an explanation to the group still seated around the table for what had happened. The tension hung in the air. Every person in the room knew, it seemed, instinctively that a bomb had just gone off.And the consequences will cause serious damage. Mark sat at the head of the table. His fingers tapped the polished wood nervously. His usual confident demeanor was gone. It was replaced by a feeling of discomfort radiating from him. Justin could see it in the way his eyes avoided his gaze. But there had been more-something darker, something deeper. Silently, Justin walked toward the tabletop; his footsteps rang harsh in the otherwise silent room. Mark's eyes flicked up, catching everything else for the briefest instant before quickly looking down.“Everyone out,” Justin said, his voice harsh, commanding.

Chapter 555: The Enemy Within
Justin sat in his office, staring at the files Mark had delivered earlier. The quiet hum of the city outside his window was a stark contrast to the storm raging inside him. A leak found in his own company—what he thought was kept safe—had just turned into a full-blown leak. People close to him are betraying him. And he didn't know who it was.In his head, Mark's words played on repeat, but it was the stabbing betrayal that hurt the most. He had single-handedly built this company as anything by steel-back-end deals, through a relentless strategy, and with the will to establish iron-clad grounds for its existence. And now, someone within his entire circle began tearing it all apart and selling to the highest bidder. A slap against the face, and Justin wasn't certain how to take it.

Upon waking, Justin felt gnawing uneasiness. He had won relatively hard and long, but as he walked in the office that morning, something was not right; the air felt heavy, the tension intense and indiscernible. Somehow, Justin couldn't seem to shake an inner feeling that someone was still perhaps watching, waiting for just the right moment to make his move.“Good morning, Mr. Drogonuv,” Mark’s voice broke through the silence as Justin walked into his office. The assistant’s usual upbeat tone was tinged with something more serious. “We need to talk.”Justin raised his eyebrows but waved his hand for Mark to continue. "what happened?" Mark's expression was tense, and Justin immediately felt a sense of urgency in the room.“It’s about the company’s recent movements. "I notice a few discrepancies in our financial reports. At first, I thought it was simply an oversight, but I now doubt it," Justin's heartbeat sped up. “What kind of irregularities?”“A few transactions that don’t add up.

Chapter 552: The Final Blow
The days that followed the media explosion were chaotic. Ethan’s empire, once a towering structure of influence and wealth, was now a crumbling shell.

Ethan, however, wasn’t just a rival; he was a shadow, a figure always lurking, always ready to strike when least expected. But Justin had learned how to deal with shadows. And this time, he wasn’t afraid of them.Glassy, chilly and eerie, stillness filled the morning air. Just as Justin finished his very first cup of coffee, his phone bleeped with an alert from Ava. His fingers hovered over the screen as the text message loaded:"We’ve got a problem. One of Ethan’s shell companies just made a huge transfer—directly into the account of a prominent politician."A chill ran through Justin’s veins. The realization struck him like a fist to the gut.

She was his eyes and ears in the media world, and if there was anyone who could keep the pressure on Ethan, it was her."Everything’s set," Ava said, her voice crisp and focused. "We’ve got the story ready to drop. I’ve coordinated with the biggest outlets. By this afternoon, Ethan’s going to be on the defensive."Justin reclined, swaying to the beat, tapping his fingers back and forth on his desk."Make sure we control the narrative.

And that wouldn’t change now.He walked into his office, his haven where he had made multitudes of decisions concerning the fate of his empire. The walls were not comforting at all today; they were lined with dark mahogany, closing in on him. There was a scent of coffee-heavenly, fresh, and inviting, but equally intent on leaving him in the throes of angers light and storm inside his chest. Mark stood by the window, his frame silhouetted against the golden light of these early hours. Definitely, he has been with Justin for years, unwavering in his loyalty. But today, even Mark could sense the shift in the atmosphere. The tension was thick, heavy. Justin hadn’t said much since his co
