I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Fifty-nine - Bragging Manager.
"What did the boss say?" A staff member asked the anxious manager who kept staring every now and then through the window, restlessness as clear as day on his face. He seemed to have not heard the first time, so the staff asked again."I have told you, god damn it!" The manager burst into anger. "He did not say anything. Nothing useful to tell these people. You all should cut me some slack. I am just the manager. I am not the one to tell you what to do."The face of the staff members and the other workers looked as pale a death. One could tell just how worried they were of the outside situation."But then what are we supposed to do?" The staff member asked once again. This time the manager turned to face him with anger. His eyes were red, as well as his face. Any moment more and it was almost as though smoke would be expelled from his ears. Saved by the bell, all of a sudden telephone rang. The manager's anger subsided as picked it."Hello sir," he said at once. "What's going on now?
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty - The Manager's Onslaught.
The entire staff thought that the manager would go down on his knees at that instant to apologize, but the reverse was the case. Rather, the manager, as if to take Justin's words seriously, to go on with his charade, turned his back to stare at his boss rather defiantly. Soon he did what no one would have ever though he would do. "Yes, I stand by my words, sir," he continued with fiery passion. "I called you incompetent because that is what you are, dear sir. You are not fit to be the heir of this empire. That is if I am afforded the right to say what I want to say." Justin could only watch this happening right in front of him. He was not surprised. For years he had been through far worse things, being called far less than incompetent, and have been treated very much like a pig, betrayed and stabbed at the back. There was nothing the manager was saying that sounded different or unique in some sense to Justin. He was just rehashing every word that have been told to him over the yea
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-one - I Am Michael Briggs!
Justin smiled dryly, in a very mocking manner and moved from the door. He stretched both arms towards the exit, ushering him out like the king he thought he was. Justin didn't know what exactly to expect but he knew that talking to the protesters in such provocative and boastful manner would only end in chaos. The rest of the employees watched in total anticipation of the unknown as their manager matched out of the building. The disbelief and shock didn't leave their faces, especially because of the grin on Justin's face. His mocking expression was priceless, a firm of pure cinematic gold.The manager mounted a little podium just outside the building, facing the crowd of protesters. The chanting reduced gradually as they saw him, and in no time, the place was totally silent. The protesters watched in utmost concentration at the man in front of them, all waiting for his speech."It's a good thing you noticed my presence." He started slowly. His calm voice marinated the air, but there w
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-two - Michael Briggs, The Main Man!
The manager breathed in, feeling fulfilled with himself. The silence of the once chanting crowd gave him the idea that they had listened to him, and were terribly scared."And what is that supposed to mean?" One of the protesters said suddenly, penetrating the silence that once ensued. "Are you threatening us?""You can take it as whatever you want. An advice, a warning, a threat. It all depends on you. But I won't change what I said, neither will I mellow down for you, noisemakers. But I want you to remember what I said about the owner of this company. He is extremely rich and I am absolutely sure that one with such power will never cower because of the masses. And I absolutely support that. If I wasn't in so much sync with him, do you think I would have this position? Well there, you have your answer.""I think he's doing it. I think it's working." One of the employees in the building remarked. Her eyes shone with glee as she beheld the drama taking place outside. The other employee
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-three - Michael Runs For His Life!
The staff members watched in confusion as he was lifted off the podium. They had genuinely thought that he had it all under control, that he had been able to silence them. But unfortunately, that wasn't the case. He was taken away by some men, while the others continued chanting their initial words. Justin laughed silently as he looked on, but he didn't do anything just yet. "Where are they taking him?" One of the employees asked. Her question directed to nobody in particular since they were just as clueless as she was. The clock was ticking already, leaving the staff members in suspense. None of them had seen Michael, since he was led away just moments ago. They were beginning to fear for his safety. Outside, the chants got louder and the people, angrier.Almost immediately, Michael ran in, panting heavily. It was as if he was sneaking up on them, but it was the exact opposite. He was running for his life. His face was badly bruised and his eyes were bloodshot. The neat suit he had
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-four - Troubles Averted!
As Justin walked to the podium, the chanting intensified. The protesters thought that he was just another puppet sent to try and silence them with threats, just like Michael. But Justin was not intimidated by the excess noise, he flashed a warm smile at the audience as he positioned on the podium before he began speaking. And that simple act provided them with a different conviction about him. But they couldn't quite conclude yet. "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen." He started calmly, in a stern voice. His poise and confidence filled the air. And almost immediately, the whole place was extremely quiet. "I am Justin Drogonuv. And today, I have heard your complaints. I understand that this protest was necessary for you to be heard. And I apologise for the stress and discomfort it may have put you through.""Are you finally going to listen to us?"One of the protesters yelled."What will be done about it then?" Another protester added. Justin took a deep breath before he answered."Aga
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-five - Everything Isn't Fine!
"What is going on, Diana?” Lilly said as soon as she got into the house. She threw her bag to one side of the room and it landed on one of the couches."What do you mean?" Diana asked, sitting up."Mom and dad, of course. Have you seen them?" Lilly almost yelled. She looked around hastily and sighed."I haven't seen them since they left. I'm getting really worried but I do not want to entertain any negative thoughts. I really hope they are fine.""Arghh..." Lilly sighed in frustration as she looked around for her phone. She immediately sighted her bag on one of the couches and reached out to grab it. "This is really frustrating.""Try to calm down. I have a feeling that we're being worried for nothing. But I can't help it." She sighed and got to her feet. She began pacing to and fro the room as she thought of what might have happened. "What if they went to visit a friend, or a business partner?""Then they would have told us. Even if dad didn't say anything, I'm sure mom would have ca
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Sixty-six - Worries And More Concerns!
"Are you sure?" Lilly asked worriedly. "I don't know why but I have a bad feeling about this. They never go anywhere without telling us. And even if they do, they always make sure to inform us, so we don't worry about them. This is really unlike them.""Calm down, sis. I can assure you that they are fine. Get rid of all your negative thoughts, okay? I'll do my findings and get back to you as soon as possible. But right now, you both shouldn't work yourselves up any more.""Then what about Bruce?" Lilly sighed. The worry she felt was intertwined with her voice, such that anybody would notice that they was really something wrong. "It's been days and I haven't heard anything from him as well. Have you seen him? Or heard anything at all about him?""I'm sorry, Lilly. But I haven't heard anything. But if I do, I will let you know. But about your parents, there is no need to be worried. I'm sure that they are absolutely fine.""Okay. Thank you." She forced a smile and handed the phone back

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.

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.

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.

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
