Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 217
The return to the Dawson's estate was quiet and without trouble allowing Melinda to breathe a sigh of relief after she had arrived at their destination.“Melinda!” Vincent exclaimed as he rushed over to meet her.Ever since he'd received information that her entourage had been attacked, he was unable to stay in place for a single moment.“Grandpa!” Melinda excitedly called out to him as she moved to meet him, with the duo embracing once they got within arm's length.“Oh, my sweet granddaughter, you don't know how worried I was.”“Sorry, granddad, I'm home now.”“Indeed you are, come quickly, we have much to discuss.”Leading the way, Vincent leads Melinda to one of the houses with the other members of the Dawson family present, staring at her with varying degrees of envy.But did any of that matter?... Hardly.Richard and Lolita followed closely behind.On getting into the building, Vincent dismissed all the guards before leading them further to his study and isolating it from those o

The owner of Smith Cuisines was Grace, the same lady who had suffered at the hands of the previous owner of the building, Lesley.Lesley at that time, was using the authority granted to him like a tyrant because his uncle was the owner of Jade Panda and so, who would dare to go against him?Yet Grace had stood her ground and at her moment of immense trial, Richard had saved her and elevated her status from a mere waiter to the owner of an establishment.Initially, Smith's Cuisines was meant to be hers alone but she didn't want that and so, after gaining permission from Maria, Grace had gotten her restaurant to become acknowledged as one of the subsidiaries under Orion Corp.Of course, her business was currently the smallest compared to the giants of the business world Richard had managed to acquire but that didn't matter to Grace.As far as she was concerned, all she wished for was to never be ungrateful to Richard for what he had done for her.He had saved her life and even if it wer

They ate and made merry, barely caring about what the others said as they had fun amongst themselves.A few ladies, being ardent fans of Richard, came over and asked for autographs and even a photo before they returned to their seats.Apart from that, no one else interrupted their meal and Richard was quite happy about this.“Sir, our current monthly expenditure is tagged at 10 million while our earnings are roughly 14 million,” Grace remarked with Richard nodding as he replied.“So a net 4 million is made as profit.” Lolita grumbled at the side. “What's the point of business talk when we are eating? Ugh, that's just not how it should be.”Ignoring her words, Richard remarked. “Have you considered expanding?”Grace hesitated before she slowly nodded. “Yes sir but it took a lot to have this restaurant get to its current state. I'd rather focus on one than have to split myself into too many for no reason at all. But is that okay by you, sir?... I'd completely understand if you want me

When Letitia was attacking Grace, Richard had taken the chance to take out the black phone and activate [Eyes of Truth].Lolita who had seen him do this, glanced at the phone screen only to realize that there was nothing special about the phone which meant apart from Richard, no one else could see the black phone's true contents with others that attempted to do do so, only passing it off as a normal phone.Anyways, utilizing the [Eyes of Truth], Richard used it to evaluate what Letitia had said only to discover that most of what she had said had been a lie, though it was hardly any surprise.However, on checking the man in the wheelchair which she claimed to be her husband, he found that the man was indeed suffering from a stroke which meant some of her words were indeed true.Pondering on this, Richard made an initial analysis. The man had indeed gotten a stroke but not from Smiths Cuisines, but Letitia, for reasons unknown decided to pin the blame on the restaurant, perhaps in a bi

Richard took the ingredients Grace had gotten for him and immediately began to concoct a special brew using the water from his table.Meanwhile, the waiters that came with Grace, went to stand at each of the exits around the restaurant to ensure that no one ran out though they were unsure why Richard felt like people would want to run.For this, even the security outside was mobilized to ensure that anyone who dared to use the windows to make a getaway would immediately be apprehended.None could understand why Grace gave them such tasks but Grace knew that Richard would never give an order without reason.That was just how much she trusted him.However, no one took notice of the heightened vigilance shown by the restaurant workers as they watched Richard do his thing, mostly confused about what he was trying to do.“Is he going to use whatever he is making to cure the man's stroke?”“Bah, what are you saying?... That makes no sense, if it were so easy, would stroke be such a dangerou

“That Richard Smith sure has skills. He was able to resolve each of the traps we set for him with people gaining even more respect for him. It's quite annoying to have such a competent opponent.” Caesar remarked while seated in an expensive suite alongside a few of his subordinates.“Sir, maybe it's because we aren't hitting hard enough. I suggest we attack his family, I'm sure that would force him to make a mistake we can use to our advantage.”Caesar snorted. “Are you stupid?... That man may act calm but he is nothing of that sort when one messes with his family. Right now he hasn't come after us because it's just petty drama, if we do what you are intending, then know that it won't be a battle of wits anymore, and then when that happens, would you be able to dispatch a man that stood up to fucking terrorists?”Immediately, the suite grew silent as they gulped in trepidation.Though it was hard to imagine the videos did not lie.Richard Smith had fought against terrorists and won.W

It was advertised as a party but even idiots would be able to figure out the underlying reason why Caesar had called for the gathering.He hadn't bothered to hide his desire to become minister of Intercity so everyone with the relevant authority in the city was well aware of who he was and where he was coming from.He was a member of a subsidiary family loyal to one of the greatest families in the capital.Naturally, when such a person extends their greetings, none would dare refuse.Under normal circumstances, they would have already agreed to support Caesar but there was one name that kept them from doing so.Richard Smith.He had become a terror to all corrupt officials which ensured that those who engaged in such underhanded acts had to be very careful as though walking on eggshells.One mistake and they would be treated like Xavier the former minister of Intercity.The worst part was Richard wasn't alone as he had the backing of the Commissioner and one of the greatest families i

“Mr. Smith, I'm glad you could join us tonight. You see, amongst everyone here, you are the most important person, after all, who else has the unequivocal support of the masses?” Caesar remarked.The words were meant to be praise but Richard didn't dare think that Caesar would be so nice as to compliment him.Knowing that the battle about to take place would be one of words and convincing the masses, Richard didn't hesitate to activate [Silver Tongue].He didn't think there'd ever be a day he would be so in need of it.Caesar had been trained from a young age how to convince people to support him with a few words and then adding on a martial technique that allowed people to lower their guards around him, Caesar was a force to be reckoned with.But that didn't mean Richard would accept defeat so easily.If that were the case, wouldn't he have given up before now?So with that, he prepared for whatever Caesar had in store for him, and as expected, it soon arrived.“But as a man that has

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
