I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Fifty-three - Justin's Apprehension.
Justin took a long breath as he stared down at them shortly. Both their eyes stared back at him with the most anger, yet determined face ever. He groaned softly, feeling almost frustrated. He then wiggled quickly, trying to shake them off. But they still held him tightly."Wow! For an old couple, you sure have really good grip." He said under his breath, looking away from their faces."What did you say?" Mrs Tucson pitched in, her voice reeking with annoyance. She had seen his lips move, but wasn't able to hear not even a word that he said. Whether it was due to their age, or that his voice was truly inaudible, Justin didn't know. But it sure made him want to laugh, yet he held back. The struggles of holding back laughter was drawn all over his face and it only got his ex in-laws extremely angry. "What is so funny, you creep?" She asked again, her voice was shaking like she was about to cry."Are you laughing at us?" Mr Tucson eyebrows furrowed as he too, met the look on Justin's face

"Are you serious?" The receptionist asked in surprise. She knew very well who Justin was, but could not imagine what may have given them such view of him."Yes, I am serious. Do you see me laughing? It's a good thing we stopped him before he could go in there." Mrs Tucson answered angrily. She can't be that dumb, she thought to herself as she looked at the receptionist. But then, she remembered that her husband disliked dumb people, and she lightened up. It was really a win for her. "If you don't call the police, then I'll have to." She said, then turned to her husband. "Right, dear?""Yes, yes. We'll call the police." He nodded in agreement. "This wretched thing should be thrown out of here. He should be punished, so he never does something like this again.""You all should be careful here. You can't just let anybody in, especially this poor rat. You know that the boss wouldn't be happy if any of his items were stolen.""That's right. Mr Nelson would be so annoyed if a little thief w

"Of course, I will." The receptionist smiled widely as she wondered what would happen. "Please, take your seats right over there. Thank you once again." "You're welcome, miss. We are glad we could be of help. The truth is that there is absolutely no way we would let the boss be robbed. We both know that he doesn't deserve that. And we will always be glad to help.""Yes. My husband is right. Our loyalty lies with the boss and nothing will ever change it. That poor thief will get what he deserves. He's being taken to the police station, right?" Mrs Tucson asked."Yes. That is exactly where he is going. You don't have to worry about him anymore." The receptionist smiled and nodded at them. "I really can't say how grateful I am for your help.""It's nothing, child. We would do it any day and any time. Just don't forget to tell the boss about it. He would be so glad if he knew." "Of course. In fact, I will do that right now. Please settle down and wait." With that, she walked back to her

They smiled at each other and walked in to the elevator as soon as it opened. The men followed right after them, then one of them pressed a button representing the floor they were ascending to. They stopped talking as soon as the flight to the sixth floor began. The elevator dinged when they had reached the floor and opened up slowly."This way, please." One of the men said, ushering them out of the elevator. Mr Tucson and his wife smiled as they stepped out of the elevator. One of the men walked ahead of them, while the other followed behind them."I felt a bit dizzy back in the elevator. I almost fell." Mrs Tucson said while touching her forehead lightly."Ahhh! Me too. It was going at such great speed. It's been quite long we used this type of elevator." Her husband agreed. "But this is the ultimate treatment, if you ask me. He really asked these men to come downstairs and see us to his office. It is really an honour. I can't wait to see the look on his face when he sees us. We rea
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Fifty-seven - Mark, Justin's Assistant.
Justin sat in his car, just few meters away from the building. He had wanted to check out some company file, but his nosey ex in-laws interrupted him, and almost ruined his day. He wasn't in his best mood, but good enough, he wasn't in his worst mood either. His eyes were fixed on the phone in his hands, and just then, a call came in."Hello." He answered the phone immediately without changing the look on his face."Hello sir. Please, where are you?" It was his assistant, Mark."Why are you asking, Mark? What is it?""I just arrived at the headquarters but you aren't there. I wanted to...""Something happened there so I decided to leave. I couldn't stay there or do what I wanted to do anymore. But I am not far away. Just come outside the gate, my car isn't parked far from there.""Okay, sir. I'm on my way." Mark nodded and ended the call. Immediately, he walked out of the building and out of the gate. Once outside, he looked both ways and sighted Justin's car, about two blocks to the
I Am The Richest Man Alive Chapter Fifty-eight - A Protest At The Company.
"Hello, sir," a voice came from the end of the line. Justin picked the call while staring outside at Mark, his assistant, who stood there as if waiting to be given a task to complete once again. The person calling, was the manager of one of the Drogonuv's company. Alumity. An aluminum making company."Yes, hello," he said. "What is going on?""A lot, sir," the voice said, anxious and seemingly out of breath. "There is something going on right here in the aluminum fields. A bunch of people are outside staging a protest for whatever reason. I can't tell why exactly they are doing so." Justin panicked for a bit of time but strived not to show it, as he maintained a calm voice. "Why? What exactly happened? Who are they?""I cannot exactly tell, sir. The protest seems to have a lot of causes, but the main problem according to their spokes person is that they are customer who have brought products from us before. They are all complaining that the aluminum we use is fake, and all our pro
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

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
Chapter 554: The Forgotten Foe
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.

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
