"Dad," Marcus uttered. Mr. Thonks stood at the doorstep, with his personal assistant behind him. Kathie and the staff immediately bowed down for him."Let's talk, meet me at the rooftop," Mr. Thonks coldly said and led the way. Marcus bit his lips as he followed his dad to the rooftop.The rooftop was a spacious area with an expansive view of the city skyline. As they stepped onto the rooftop, Marcus noticed the soft glow of the setting sun casting warm hues across the urban landscape. The gentle breeze swept through, carrying with it the faint sounds of the bustling city below.Mr. Thonks gestured towards a set of plush chairs arranged near the edge of the rooftop, overlooking the cityscape. Marcus took a seat, feeling a mix of anticipation and apprehension as he waited for his father to speak."Marcus," his father started, but Marcus immediately interrupted him."I am sorry, sir, I am sorry I am destroying your legacy and history with the board leaders, I am sorry for not living up

Kathie waited in front of the company today again, waiting for Marcus. It was evening already and didn't even bother to come to the company, she was worried something went wrong with his meeting with his father."That best won't even call, he just disappears as he likes," she groaned. Just then his car stopped in front of him and he exited the car.Kathie frowned at him, and was about to haul when she noticed some bruise on his face, and his fingers looked reddish.She rushed towards him, checking his body. "What... what happened to you, did you get into a fight, who did this to you?""It is just something to be worried about, I'm okay," he dismissively said."No, you can't say that, whoever did this must be put into justice, how could they do this," Kathie insisted."Kathie, I did this to myself when I went to training with Ivan and Paulina," he answered."Really??? What training, why are you training, what are you training for?" she asked in series."I am training how to fight, and

Sophia!" he hauled her name and dragged her away, while he stayed in front of the knife as it penetrated.The assailant looked shocked that he stabbed the wrong target.

"Are you okay? Oh my god, Marcus, are you hurt?" she asked frantically, her voice trembling with concern.Marcus held his stomach, groaning. Tears immediately welled up in Sophia's eyes."I...I am sorry, I shouldn't have dragged you into this, I shouldn't," she immediately started blaming herself.Marcus calmly revealed his stomach, "Ta-da!!", showing no signs of injury. Sophia's eyes widened in shock and surprise."How... how did you do that?" she

Marcus and Sophia walked hand in hand into the banquet, and as they were about to enter, Lydia stood in front of them."Marcus," she called. Sophia wondered who she was and searched Marcus's face for an answer."Hi, Lydia, you are doing very well," Marcus answered her.She scoffed, "Yeah, I will surely be doing very well, because I am not like you, lingering around rich women."Marcus nodded, "We should not start this here. I don't know the reason you must always come after me whenever we meet.""Yeah, because that's what you deserved. Look at you, some months ago you were romancing and smashing the secretary of the company you used to work for. Now you are with another rich lady," Lydia stated."I don't see any reason why that concerns you," Marcus simply answered."Please... who is this?" Sophia asked."My ex-wife. We have divorced," Marcus answered.Lydia chuckled, "Is that all? You don't tell her you fed in me for years of our marriage, that you were a lowlife and poor man who cou

They all stood up and gazed at Joel. The hero act instantly washed out from him as he trembled and shivered.One of them moved closer to him, "Why the hell did you push the young master?" he could feel his hot breath. Joel breathed hard. He didn't want to chicken out and be embarrassed. "He spilled wine on her clothes and didn't apologize.""Apologize?" The young master will never apologize. The one who will apologize right now is you. Bow down and apologize, and we will forget it all," the guard said.Joel looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him. He gazed at Lydia, who was also looking at him. Bowing down would be a huge embarrassment."I said, bow down and apologize to our master," the guard prompted again, but Joel didn't. He waited, wondering what would happen.The guy walked forward. "Okay, let me tell you all who I am. I am Jeremy, the last born of the Minister of War and Defense of this country. Does that ring a bell?" he hauled.Everyone shivered because there w

Sophia glared at Lydia, her frustration boiling over. "This is all your fault! You caused trouble, Marcus wouldn't have felt the need to step in and help you if not for you care about you!"Lydia's eyes flashed with defiance. "Oh please, don't pin this on me. Marcus jumps in to show off his martial arts skills."Sophia scoffed. "At least he was trying to protect you! You should be grateful instead of criticizing him."Lydia shook her head, her voice rising. "Protect me? He endangered all of us with his reckless actions. I don't need his heroic act if it means putting everyone in danger!""What are you so heartless? What an unbelievable thing to say.""Yeah, I said that, and I will repeat it. He shouldn't have stepped in. We were doing okay before he stepped in. He should be blamed," Lydia stood her ground."He is once your husband," Sophia said.She scoffed, "Then what? A lowlife husband that can't even take care of me, and now he is licking after your ass because you are rich. That's

Marcus gathered himself and knelt again, gazing at Jeremy."What? What's with those eyes? What are you going to do? You are powerless here. There is nothing you can do. You are now in hell," Jeremy laughed hysterically.Marcus scoffed, "What a fool, happy that your father is cleaning up after your mess."One of the bodyguards hit him with the gun's bottom, and he fell to the floor again.Jeremy bent down and sneered, "You still don't know when to shut up. You are going to regret this. Just apologize already before my dad comes here. Then everything will be settled."Marcus stared at him and smirked, "I want to see your father and tell him the rubbish he raised, calling him a son.""What!" Jeremy was angry as he raised his leg to kick him again, but then he heard his father's thick voice echo through the room."Jeremy," he called his name. Jeremy instantly acted accordingly, turning to him and bowing his head."Dad."Marcus weakly sat down on the floor, bruises all over his face stingi

"What did you just say, irrelevant people?" Ivan angrily said, as he stepped forward, with an angry motion, but Paulina grabbed him. Then stepped forward."She is dying and needs urgent surgery; she could die if care is not taken.""That is none of my business, we are short of surgeons at this moment, and we really need this nurse right now, the congressman sons were involved in an accident, they could die also," the doctor insisted."But we are the first to reach here, you could just have immediately directed them to another hospital," Ivan argued."Don’t you hear what I just said? I said they are the congressman’s sons, I don’t have time exchanging conversation with you, nurse... meet me in the OR," the doctor said and dashed away.Ivan looked at the nurse, who was also reluctant to go, but they had no choice, or else, they will lose the job."I am sorry, I have to go," the elder nurse said, a woman probably in her late 40s."You know she will die," Ivan stated.The woman nodded, "b

Sophia arrived back in the state, she immediately made her way to her house where her father was waiting for her. She knew she was going to face something big.She entered, holding her breath, and there he was, Mr. Victor Newman on the sofa, sipping tea in a mug. And beside him bowed Joel..."Father?... good morning," she politely greeted him and bowed. Mr. Victor didn't act like he was there; he sipped his tea and focused on the news, which the headline stated, "Mr. Thonks, the billionaire, appoints his anonymous son as the CEO."Mr. Victor chuckled, "Anonymous?.. I wonder why he is concealing his identity, to attack me?"Sophia didn't have the idea of what he was saying. Joel smirked at her, and just then Mr. Victor raised his hand and stated, "who is the man you are with?""Man? Oh yes, my bodyguard," she answered, putting on a fake smile. Mr. Victor chuckled and stood up, then walked slowly towards her."That is not what I heard from the board leaders. Who the hell is that fuckin

Marcus watched with concern as Sophia hurriedly boarded the plane, her sudden departure leaving him perplexed and worried. He couldn't shake off the feeling that something was terribly wrong.Feeling Kathie's gentle tap on his shoulder, Marcus turned to face her, his expression still clouded with concern."Let's go," she said softly, her eyes reflecting her own worry, so down.Nodding silently, Marcus followed Kathie, "Uhm, what a long day!" he said to deliberately spark a conversation.Kathie didn't respond and kept walking. They reached the car parked beside the airport. She opened the car for Marcus.Observing Kathie's demeanor as Marcus entered. Her usually bright eyes seemed dull, and her shoulders slumped, and she looked puffy.Concerned, Marcus gently placed a hand on Kathie's arm and asked in a soft tone, "Is everything alright, Kathie? You seem... different."Kathie forced a weak smile, but it didn't reach her eyes. She hesitated for a moment before responding, her voice bare

The assembly man's frown deepened at Marcus's request, his brows knitting together. "Do you know these people?" he questioned. "They nearly killed my son. I can't forgive them; they deserve to be punished, even killed. I am considering killing them and feeding their flesh to my dogs."Marcus nodded solemnly, his gaze unwavering as he met the assembly man's eyes. "Yes, they deserve it. That is a heinous crime; your son nearly died. But I know them, they are my friends," he affirmed. "They're not the people you think they are. They're friends of mine, and what happened was just a misunderstanding. They never intended for anyone to get hurt."The assembly man groaned, pointing at Lydia. "But this woman here doesn't feel any remorseful," he said. "She kept telling me that my son deserved it, she kept stepping on my nerves. I can't just let them go; I can't do this for you, please."Marcus smiled and stated, "I know you are just angry, and that you don't mean it. You gave me a whopping $20

Sophia was looking at the letter, smiling and very happy. Her face lit up as she faced Marcus. She looked at him in a flirtatious way, "You did this!"Marcus chuckled and sipped his wine, "How? I did nothing.""I am sure the CEO considered because of your skill, the medical skills you show. You were cool then," she stated."Being medically skillful has nothing to do with business. You are just lucky, and you give that impression," Marcus simply stated.Sophia kept looking into Marcus's eyes. The words burned in her stomach. She loved him and wanted to confess, but it was so hard. Just so hard to do it."Marcus..." she called him, then breathed in and exhaled loudly. She had made up her mind to tell him."mm.. what?" Marcus cluelessly hummed."I don't know how to say this, but I think I have to say it after all... Marcus, I l....".She was interrupted by Kathie, who chimed in and stated, "Mr. Marcus?".Marcus turned to her, "mmm?""The assemblyman requires your presence in his house; h

Chapter 84. “What's wrong, what happened”, Marcus curiously asked. Kathie bit her lips as she began, “Sir, this letter was sent to you this evening, I don't know where it comes from, but you should certainly see it”. He stood there, wondering as Kathie brought out the letter and gave it to him, he checked it out and read the content. A sentence that immediately broke his heart. “My son, be careful!”. “What…what?, Is this!!”, He stammered, the letter shaking in his hand. “We don't know, we are currently on it”, she said. Marcus crumbled the letters, “this must absolutely be some shit, my father is on the sick bed, I am very sure he isn't the one that sent this, someone is behind this!”. “yeah, actually a dispatch either delivered it, so we are tracing it back on him, we will eventually find some answer in it”, she said. Marcus nodded, then remembered what Lydia told him, he asked her, “what happened to Lydia, and why don't you inform me about it?”. “I'm about to, you are busy,

She waited for the whole day, and it was evening already, as she was about to leave, then Alexander walked outside from the company, she immediately dashed down and rushed towards him before he entered his car."Alexander," she called his name.Alexander was shocked to see her and immediately tried to ignore her as he wanted to enter his car, but Lydia held his hand.He hollered at her, "Are you that stupid? What the hell are you looking for here? Aren't you afraid of being killed?""I just want to see you, and we should plan things out," Lydia muttered.Alexander chuckled, "What, are you really joking right now or you really mean it? What the hell are you saying? You witnessed a near-death experience some weeks ago, and you

Mr. Victor's cold demeanor sent shivers down Alexander's spine as he stared at the gun pointed at him."What are you doing, are you going to kill me?" Alexander demanded.Mr. Victor scoffed, "Yeah, I can do that, you know what I'm capable of.""Yeah, just do it and let's end it all, but you know, you will become nothing without me," Alexander threatened."Wow, I like your fighting spirit, love it, but that will end up with nothing, and you can even end up dead," Mr. Victor said, still pointing the gun at him."I don't know the reason you are doing this, I don't love your daughter, and I'm not marrying her," Alexander fought back.Mr. Victor's expression hardened. "Wow, Olive, I wonder how she is doing since you left, so I checked on her."Alexander's expression shifted to shock. "What, what are you saying? You checked on her?""Yeah, she is doing great for the moment, but I can't say what will happen after what will happen here," Mr. Victor kept threatening him.Olive was a teen girl
