Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 186
Fiona had always considered herself a fashion icon and a drop-dead gorgeous beauty.With almost perfect looks with an amazing dress sense, she was right to feel that way, however, it came with one flaw.An unbridled sense of arrogance.She always thought herself better than everyone else and didn't hesitate to make others feel less of themselves whenever they crossed paths with her.This was something she did during her time at the company she was fired from.As part of management, she was put over a whole department to take charge of it.During her stay, the department recorded the highest number of resignations to ever occur in the company's history and this was because Fiona was always on their necks, treating them like livestock while she acted like some Queen Bee.Of course, despite the horrifying numbers, they never fired her from her post as she was the lover of the General Manager of the company.However, when the company owner returned to carry out inspections and then found

“It was a big misunderstanding. The owner of the company had asked me out once but I declined, due to that, he always tried to make life miserable for me. After he found out that I was dating his general manager, he used that as an excuse to have me fired for inappropriate relationships at the workplace.” Fiona lied right through her teeth.Of course, it wasn't a lie that the owner of AV had shown interest in her but he ultimately never acted on it as he realized what kind of person she was, he'd stopped bothering himself with her and even left the country for an extended period to focus on other things.Fiona had always felt regretful that the man had run away since she'd initially planned on getting him as a lover.Her failure resulted in the fact that when the owner returned, he was able to think enough to make the right choice, unlike his general manager who was already long gone.In any case, it wasn't like Richard could know that since he had no idea who the owner of AV was in t

Once he was done with Fiona's matter, Richard quickly moved to the airport to catch a flight to Memphis Island which was where Melinda was attending the conference with the Five Coalition.Unfortunately, upon getting there, he happened on another problem.“No flights heading to Memphis?” Richard inquired with a rather sour look.He hadn't expected to be met with such an unfortunate circumstance.The receptionist nodded. “Yes sir, we received an order that all flights to and around Memphis Island should be grounded till further notice.”“Any reason why?”“I can't be sure sir.” The woman replied only to lower her voice and add. “But I heard it might have something to do with some big names that own the island. They don't wish for anyone to come close to it.”“I see.” Richard nodded, gaining a new understanding of the matter.“Let me guess, this order was given today?”“Yes sir.”“As expected.” Richard sighed before letting out a chuckle.It would seem the Five Coalition were worried tha

Richard didn't know whether to beat up the security head for intentionally being thick-headed or just pitying him.The security head saw that Richard touched down with a private jet yet he still came to make things difficult for him, which meant that he was only trying to get on Richard's nerves.The reason of course was still not quite clear to Richard and so, he refrained from carrying out any extreme actions to avoid getting Melinda into more trouble.“Oi, aren't you listening to me?... You shouldn't be here, so pack your backs and get out.” The security head continued, treating Richard like he were some kind of fugitive.Richard could have sworn that the fool was sent to annoy him and that was when it clicked.Someone did send the security guard and from all likelihood, it was to either embarrass him or to get him to leave soon.It would seem the Five Coalition knew that Richard had arrived and wanted to prevent him from meeting with Melinda.If his conjecture was correct, then Ri

The drive back to Melinda's residence was mostly silent with the duo engaging in small talk occasionally since they were worried that the driver might be a spy for the Five Coalition.That was the first problem they had to be conscious of.They were in enemy territory so it would be more difficult to make plans than if they were on neutral grounds.Of course, that didn't mean they wouldn't still carry out what they had in mind.Soon they arrived at Melinda's residence and Richard was forced to accept that Melinda was indeed in quite a precarious situation.Her residence was on the outskirts of the main city on Memphis Island with the main city still being quite far from her place.To stay in the main city and make use of its high-tech facilities, the first requirement was to have a Black Card, and getting one meant that the owner was at least a multi-billionaire.The reason for this was because due to the Spirit Stones sales, the city had become a paradise for the rich with most not w

Richard led Melinda into the hotel building only for their presence to draw the attention of those already inside.“Oh, isn't that Ms. Melinda Dawson?... What is she doing back here?... I thought she'd already left?”“You know I heard that she was trying to act smart but then she was put in her place which is why she had to leave the hotel.”“I heard it too. Poor fool, only idiots would dare to go against the Five Coalition yet she still wishes to do so.”“Hah, can she even do anything?... I mean, look, she went to get herself so broke guy to come and beg for her. I don't understand what gives her the audacity to do something like this.”Their murmurs were loud, making sure Melinda heard them which caused her further anguish.Rubbing her shoulder to support her, Richard led her to the receptionist's desk and knocked on it twice.Unfortunately, both receptionists on the seat didn't even bother to look their way as they busied themselves reading newspapers.Melinda bit down on her lip a

There was a consensus amongst the girls who were representing their families at the conference.It was that Melinda was the most beautiful among them.Even when she wasn't trying, her effortless charm and beauty were enough to draw the attention of any man.She was just that attractive with her curves, flawless skin, and perfect face.Beside her, they couldn't even compare in the slightest.Due to this, they all developed hatred for Melinda, watching as men that they were interested, in would move to entertain Melinda, not even bothering to look their way.What was so great about her?... She was just some bitch so why did they have to hype her up so much?This was why when Melinda ended up losing her Black card, they were excited.Now she would have no choice but to leave which meant it was their time to shine.Matilda also held that inferiority complex toward Melinda which was why when she noticed Richard, the urge to prove that she could pull a man away from Melinda made her move wi

The entire reception was silent as they waited for Richard to give a response to Matilda.Most already thought it natural that he would have to accept her proposal.It was only natural, after all, he was a mere beggar.And so they waited, however, the response they expected never came and instead, Richard remarked.“You said to get a black card, you need at least $600 million.” “Of course, are you shocked?... Did you think it would be cheap?”“Not at all. However, I'm quite curious to know if that is the highest amount a black card can hold.” As he spoke, he made it clear he was addressing the receptionist as he glanced in her direction.Snorting derisively, the receptionist replied. “Can you stop wasting all our time and just accept Ms. Matilda's offer?... Gosh, you are so annoying.” “Just answer the damn question.” Richard shot back in vague annoyance causing the receptionist to step back in shock.“Fine then, since you just want to trouble me, I'll tell you. A black card can hold

Snorting derisively, Richard glanced at Queen Mother who was staring hatefully at him. “Due to your antiquated beliefs, you have allowed nonsense to remain, ensuring that progress is not made. Do you think that if this man rules, he would do a better job than his father?... I mean, at least the Emperor is sufficiently strong, but this fool?... Ah, well, what can I say?”Seeing as how everyone was silent, Richard continued. “My mother should have sat on that throne, she was the natural choice, but you all decided that because of her gender, she would not rule. Foolish. Too foolish. Now she lays dead, having tried her whole life to ensure that her family was safe and secure, a feeling she would have extended to everyone here had she remained.”The silence indeed deafening as no one knew what to say.The fact that Tabitha was dead was also quite shocking.“Regardless… I am here now and I plan to make changes. The first change I shall make as Crown Prince…”“You are not Crown Prince and w

Richard sat in his bedroom, already prepared for the bout that would bring everything to a natural conclusion.His expression is impassive, he sat before a mirror and wondered what he would do after he had won.It was a question he needed to answer before he could take the right to the Crown in good faith.He was no leader, so was he willing to become one all because he wished to avenge his mother?Letting out a sigh, he thought to call his beloveds only for someone to knock at his door.“Come in.” He calmly responded.Moments later, Gina entered alongside her father, Elder Wu, both of whom had their heads down as they found themselves unable to meet Richard's gaze.Seconds passed before Richard inquired. “Why are you here?”“... I… no, we are sorry, your highness. We were scared and…”“And so you decided as long as you survived, an innocent man paying the price would not be too bad.”“That…”“Sums it up nicely. If only you had stood your ground, I would have made sure you both got th

“Ahem, Princess Liliana.” An elder who could hardly control his curiosity any longer called out, drawing the attention of the first Princess. “Yes, elder?”“... Can you see me?” He inquired as it was common knowledge that the first princess had gone blind at some point as a result of her condition.Silence followed for a moment before the princess replied. “Of course, I can see you, older.”A flurry of gasps escaped the lips of everyone present as one exclaimed.“It's a miracle!”Soon enough, many more began to comment causing the hall to turn rowdy.“The princess is cured of her condition?... How is this possible?”“It makes no sense, the Princess couldn't have been healed just like that.”Just then, the Emperor erupted. “Silence!”Immediately, the hall went pin-drop quiet as everyone shifted their attention to the Emperor who had his eyes on Lily.“Are you truly cured, Liliana?” He inquired softly.Lily pursed her lips. “Yes… I am.”“But how?... Even your aunt Tabitha who was a pow

Eve could never have fathomed that Richard had anticipated her sabotage and carried out measures to make up for it.In her long life, she had never met someone who was able to match her cunning which was why even though Richard proved himself smart, she still considered herself superior.She had superior intellect, superior resources, and superior manpower and most importantly, Richard was on her home turf.There was no way he could pull a fast one on her yet here he was, doing exactly that.Her mind turned fast, trying to figure out how exactly she missed these drones but despite her efforts, she found herself pulling up repeated blanks with no end in sight.She'd made sure she destroyed all the drones after Richard had unceremoniously revealed that he had a network of drones currently spying on every portion of the capital.Of course, he hadn't said it outrightly but she had deduced it judging from what she had learned about his life so far.Which was why she had gotten her most tru

“It's not even been a week since he arrived yet he does something like this, so despicable.”“If he couldn't control himself, couldn't he have gotten a courtesan?... So cheap, utterly disgusting.”“I can't believe such a person is the Legacy. If he truly is the Legacy, he needs to have the Black Book stripped from him before he turns into a monster.”A lot of murmurs flew around amongst those Richard saw on his way to his destination, with many giving scathing remarks as they hurried past him.Whatever the first prince and Queen Mother were planning, its initial effect seemed to be quite good.They'd played an incredibly good card.Soon, he arrived at the courthouse where several elders both from the Right Hand and the Left Hands were gathered.Several looked upon Richard with scorn and absolute disgust with some even voicing their discontent.“I knew we should have never allowed him into the city. He looks like the textbook definition of a hooligan.”“To dare do such a thing and to E

Lily hadn't ever thought she'd be able to live a normal life again.From birth, she'd already been tagged as a child with little prospects and so was left to suffer alone for years.Few of her step-siblings ever showed any form of care, instead treating her as an opponent out of the race.That was the unfortunate thing.Every single member of the Royal family saw themselves as opponents to be defeated and not as a family.It was a situation born out of a desire to rule over millions.Very few were like Maverick, who didn't bother with anything and instead just tried to enjoy as much of their lives as they could.But here comes someone who has no connections to her, doing what no one else had ever deemed necessary to do.No, perhaps, she indeed had a connection to him.Hadn't he said it himself?... This was his attempt at finishing what his mother had started.Tears clouded Lily's eyes as she muttered softly. “Thank you.”Richard managed a smile as he reached out and cleaned a tear tha

The lady, having finished her heartfelt melody, took a deep breath before proceeding to empty her lungs, a look of satisfaction etched on her face.However, she soon paused with her expression shifting as she seemed to sense something, then she asked.“Who's there?” Her voice sounded hoarse, almost like it wasn't used as much as it was supposed to.Richard pondered on how best to respond before deciding to be straightforward.“My name is Richard Smith, I was attracted over by your zither playing. I must confess, it was incredible listening to you play, you are a genius.”The lady seemed to relax only for her expression to shift to curiosity as she inquired. “Smith?... You mean the man who claims to be the Legacy?”“I have been called that.”“I see, it would explain why I didn't detect you immediately. You carry a presence that despite being so immense, can be easily ignored… almost like a ghost.”Richard was unsure of how to respond and so, remarked. “Do you play this every night?”“

In a certain way, Richard had come to rely on the camouflaged drones as the best way to ensure he was never blindsided.If evidence couldn't be gotten from other sources, why not make your own?That was his understanding and so he didn't hesitate to apply it with necessary, hence the reason why he had already unleashed a good number of drones into the capital the night before.Ensuring they covered every corner of the city, nothing was happening in the capital Richard wasn't aware of.How he knew that Elder Wu wasn't doing as he had instructed and was instead meeting with his fellow Rights to discuss what he considered to be a potential disruption of the Order of the city.It seems he feared that Richard would cause chaos in his desire to get revenge.It was understandable why he would think that way but Richard was no madman and he had no desire to implicate innocents in his quest for justice for his mother.Regardless, that wasn't the point right now as he watched Prince Harry's exp

When was the last time he'd been so casually insulted that it felt like a compliment?Harry couldn't remember, perhaps because it had never happened.Those that had dared to look down on him had paid the price without question yet the man before him made him feel like that wouldn't be the case no matter what he did.Harry turned livid as he hated the fact that someone else, a nobody for that matter, would lead him to feel so wary.“How about we put that claim to the test then?” Harry inquired, unwilling to back down just like that.Richard raised a brow. “Wasn't this meant to be a party?”“Plans changed, let us compete. I believe it's a better way to decide if your words are true or you just have a big mouth, don't you agree?”“I see.”“Or perhaps, are you scared?” Harry asked in slight provocation.Richard shrugged. “Alright then, if you really wish to humiliate yourself, then sure, let's fight.”Harry snorted. “Good. We shall exchange three blows. Whoever can remain standing without
