I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 328: Reflections
After the trial has ended and his ex-mother-in-law has been sent to prison, Justin felt peace but at the same time, something felt amiss in the whole thing.The victory over his ex-mother-in-law felt hollow.He stood on the balcony of his house, overlooking the city below him. The sunset covered the skyline in a way that formed told and orange color, looking so peacegy, a contrast to the racing emotions Justin was feeling inside him. Truly, he had won against his ex-mother-in-law and crushed things she held dear. She is now behind bars, a true penalty for what she had done. The person who had caused his mother's death should not see the light of the day outside a prison cell again.But, after everything have happened and the weight settled on his shoulders, he could not help but feel the sting of this bittersweet triumph.

I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 329: Restitution.
But even still, Justin was still happy he did something for his late mother. He had avenged her, and in doing so, he had helped carved out a piece of justice in a world that often seemed so very unjust to people. That, at least, was something meaningful.He was still in his thoughts when his assistant, Mark, walked towards him from behind. His voice interrupted Justin's thoughts as he spoke to him. “It is done. The paperwork had gone through and the final pieces of her business have been seized.”Justin was jolted out of his thoughts as he heard his assistant’s voice but he did not respond immediately. Instead, he was silent as he fixed his eyes on the skyline in the city when dusk began to settle in on them. Eventually, he nodded slowly, acknowledging his assistant’s words without setting his eyes away from the horizon.“There is nothing left for her.”his assistant, Mark, continued with a steady tone. “You have accomplished many of the things you have set out to do.”“I know.

I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 330: A Daughter’s Dilemma
Lily was in her dimly lit living room as she sat down on a sofa, the curtains of the room drawn against the outside world, preventing any form of natural light to pass through in full form. The silence that engulfed the whole place was suffocating yet it did not do much to help calm her nerves and offer her peace. Her hands trembled a lot as she tried to reach for the glass of water on the table in front of her but even that small gesture felt like she was doing too much. Her thoughts were racing about in her mind, it was a whirlwind of emotions she could not control, and memories she could not escape.Her mother was in prison.The realization of that fact hit her with full force, as it had done every day since the trial ended and she was sentenced. Justin had made sure he won. He had exposed her mother’s criminal activities, disrupted her business and brought her to face justice. In as much as she felt sentimental about the whole thing since it involved her mother, she knew in her he

Lilly hesistated. She did not know if she should answer the call or not. She had not spoken to Justin for a long time. She got to know about her mother's case late, like her dad and since then, she had tried to reach him hut he was not giving her audience. Since the moment she had seen her mother in court, she did not know what to say or how to confront the complex racing emotions she felt that day when she thought of him. But she was curious to know what he wanted to say and she tried to answer.“Hello,” he said.“Justin,” She said with her voice barely above a whisper.There was a long pause on the other end but after a while, his voice came through. It was calm and measured. “Lilly, I was not sure if you would answer me if I called.”She closed her eyes as she heard him say that. She tried to steady herself before she replied. “What do you want Justin?”“I just wanted to check on you and see how you are holding up” he said. Although he could sense that there was a certain distan
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter 332: A Surprising Request.
Lilly was beside her large window, seated on a chair in her apartment. She was looking out at the city below as her apartment was on a hillside. The sun was just setting, making a soft glow to appear over the sky. This has been her usual spot for some time. She had spent the past few days thinking about certain things. She had made a decision and had been thinking if it was the best one for her. But truth is she can not pretend not to see the reality of things as it holds for her. She had to move forward with her life without the stains of her mother's name. And to make that happen, she needed help from the last person she even thought she would turn to again.Justin. Her ex-husband.She did not know what to do as she held her phone in her hand. She was hesitating if she should call Justin or not. His name was still saved there, it has not been deleted or changed to something else since then. She did not know if he would respond to her to warmly or not. Especially given what she int

Justin turned around, studying her face. “You do realize that walking away from your business means losing a significant part of who you’ve been for years, right? It’s not just about your mother.”“I know,” Lilly admitted, her voice soft. “But I can’t live with the weight of it anymore. Every time I look at my company, I see her shadow. I need to start over, rebuild from scratch, away from everything she touched.”Justin crossed his arms, leaning against the wall. “And what makes you think I can help you with that?”“You’re the only one who can,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “You know how to navigate this world better than anyone. You’ve built your empire without relying on anyone else’s influence. But I... I need you to help me do the same.”For a moment, Justin said nothing, simply watching her, his expression contemplative. Lilly could not tell what he was thinking, if he was angry, confused, or even amused by her request. Finally, he spoke. “You’re asking me to help y

Chapter 557: The Price of Loyalty
The days following his confrontation with Mark felt like an endless storm to Justin. The stench of betrayal hung over him like a cloud, darker and heavier than any he had ever known. It was not just Mark's actions that wounded him; it was the realization that even those he trusted most were capable of turning against him. His empire, his family, the people he had built everything for, none of them were safe.In the quieter times when Justin wasn't surrounded by the unrelenting demands of his empire, the loneliness of the entire thing settled on him,In the silence of his penthouse, the cold glass walls offer no comfort. He knew this day would come. But it's still painful. The idea that someone he trusted, people who have stood by him for many years, can decide to betray him.It cuts deeper than any opponent that he had ever faced. But he didn't have the leisure to brood over it. The fight with Ethan was far from over, and Mark was just one casualty in this war. The loss of loyalty
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. There was no space for dissent.The team, sensing the heaviness of the moment,
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. He instantly picked the phone, dialing Mark's number. It rang once and twice, and right then came Mark's voice.“Justin?”“Where are we with the leak?” Justin’s voice was clipped, every word laced with an

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 553: A New Horizon

As the remnants of Ethan's empire collapsed, Justin is forced to face the reality that his tireless victories have come at a terrible cost.The meeting room is quiet. It was the silence that came only after a fight. Board members who were once concerned about Justin's methods, Now they looked at him with a different respect. They understood the stakes, the price paid for survival in this ruthless world.But for Justin, respect is not as important as the weight of his decision. He sat at the head of the table, looking around at the face he was leaning on. Mark stood on the side. His normally confident demeanor was now marked with a delicate caution. Ava sat across from him. Her eyes narrowed as she examined the information in front of her. “Ethan's downfall has left a void in the market,” Justin said in a low but firm tone,
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. He had endured the tumult of the tragedy caused by the scandal of Samuel Dayton, more than anything that Justin had ever expected. It had spread so far and caused investors to back out. But Justin was well aware that it was not yet over. He was indeed cornered, but that did not mean he was out of the game.One evening, Justin sat in his office, the dim light from his desk lamp lighting up long shadows on the wall. His thoughts are sharp and organized. With no room for complacency at this moment. It is time to end it all. Ethan has been a thorn in his flesh for far too long. And Justin knows the only way to truly destroy him is to take away everything that matters to him.As he searched through the documents on the table Mark walked in with a solemn expression. “we have a situation. Ethan is trying to play his last card. Word is that
Chapter 551: The Unseen Hand
The days that followed Justin’s decisive actions were filled with calculated moves and whispered strategy. Every step he took was a deliberate play in a game where only one could win. 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. This wasn’t just a financial maneuver; this was a move that could bring everything crashing down. Ethan had gone from playing the corporate game to playing polit
Chapter 550: The Counterattack Begins
The morning after the war had been declared, Justin was already on the offensive. He knew it wasn’t going to be easy—Ethan wouldn’t sit back and let him take control without retaliating. But Justin had learned long ago that the best defense was a good offense. And if Ethan thought he could break him, he was gravely mistaken.The day started with a call from Ava. 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. We can’t afford any loose ends. I want Ethan’s involvement in every shady deal and backdoor negotiation to be on full display.""Understood. I’ll make sure his reputation takes the hit it deserve
Chapter 549: The Cold War Escalates
The next day, Justin awoke sooner than his usual time, as his mind was already treading the mental paths of what had transpired. Lilly's disloyalty hurt him, but quickly the pain began to replace itself by a cold resolve. He was this way because he was relentless- because he flatly refused to bow down. 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
