Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 251
Richard had considered several reasons as to why the Assistant would wish to meet with him but hardly had he considered the possibility that she would wish for him to work for the Golden Band.Caught off guard by the request, he could only respond with furrowed brows. “Come again?”“What?... Are you shocked by my offer?”“Shouldn't I be?”“Oh please, Mr. Smith, you have proven yourself a more competent Mafia head than most I've come in contact with. A man such as yourself is destined to be a part of our upper echelons and I can guarantee the best benefits if you accept my offer.”Richard stayed silent for a while, scrutinizing The Assistant to figure out if she was joking but it turned out she wasn't and that made him even more perplexed.“So, what do you say?” The Assistant inquired.Richard sighed as he took his seat. “Considering your actions, I'm sure you have dug up enough information about me.”“Indeed I have. Richard Smith, heir to the Smith family Fortune, Owner of Orion Corp.

The drive back to Richard's estate was rather peaceful which was a welcome change to how he had been received the last time he traveled out.When he got home, Maddie and Melinda were on hand to greet him with Jemima and Jayden present to greet Jerome.“Richard!” Maddie exclaimed joyfully as she leaped on Richard, embracing him tightly.Richard chuckled. “How are you?”“Forget about me, how are you?... I heard about everything that happened in Riverdale.”“Huh, how?”“Lolita told me.”Richard glanced at Lolita who casually turned her face away, unwilling to make eye contact.Letting out a sigh, Richard turned to face her. “I’m fine. Contrary to whatever Lolita said, it wasn't as dangerous as expected.”“Oh, Lolita didn't say it was dangerous. She said you were like a god of war sweeping through the battlefield with rather lewd words scattered about.”Suppressing the twitching of his eyelids, Richard remarked. “Regardless, everything is fine now so tell me, how's everything over here?”

Prince Maverick was one of the lesser-known members of the Imperial family.Considering the Emperor had more than 300 children, both known and unknown, from several women, known and unknown, it was a wonder that he was one of the children in the hundreds.Perhaps due to how far he was from the throne, he didn't bother with foolish thoughts like trying to become the emperor or attempting to wield too much power as he was well aware that doing so would only put a target on his back.That was the problem with having large families in such a setting.The crowned prince would always feel threatened by his siblings as long as he lived.In any case, Maverick was involved with the Augustus family which was the same one that was supporting Caesar's campaign in Intercity.Curious to know about the happenings in the city that, on its opening, was touted as the city of dreams and the city with the potential to rival the capital, Maverick journeyed to the city in the company of his guard.Due to t

The first game chosen was chess and Maverick, first insulted could hardly contain himself when he lost to Richard.“How…” Maverick muttered in utter disbelief as Richard checkmated him.The truth was that the Imperial family were all born with an innate mystical ability that granted them a fortune, allowing them to win any game they took part in.Due to this, very few dared to go against a Royal in games because it was a fact that they would lose but right now, Richard had won.The situation left Maverick speechless as he glanced at Richard, expecting him to gloat.However, what he got back was a stern face that remarked with respect.“It was a great game, your highness. Would you like to go another round?” Maverick hesitated but ultimately nodded with Richard quickly setting up the table for another round.Two hours later, Richard had defeated Maverick 3 out of five times with the remaining two ending with one draw and one loss for Richard.Caesar stood at the side, unable to compre

The entire house was draped in silence as Richard read through the text message on Jerome’s smartphone.He hadn't expected anything happening tonight but at the end of the day, he underestimated Caesar and what the degenerate was capable of.Already fast asleep, he was awoken by Jerome only to read a text message that was nothing short of diabolical.It was from an unknown number and a quick check done by one of Richard's security heads showed that the number was linked back to a person that didn't exist which meant Caesar was most likely behind this.Of course, they couldn't just call him out without evidence but this… the text message was just horrible.It was long and filled with terrible words but the summary was short and simple.‘Don’t dare come out tomorrow for the electoral speech tomorrow or your family will pay the price.’By family, they meant Jayden in particular which meant Caesar had crossed all boundaries to go ahead and threaten a child.Maddie was in a corner trying t

Caesar was raised on a simple principle.Politics was a dirty game.Anyone with a brain could see that but what they didn't see was that they were versions of dirt.There was mud, sand, and several more. It just depends on which type.Some would opt for underhanded dealings, using their sweet tongue, money, and power to cajole people to do their bidding while others were more suited to violence, using it to solve their problems.Both were quite useful depending on the situation and Caesar had learned to utilize both which set him apart from several others.Considering the tongue hadn't served its purpose of winning the war, then he would opt for violence but he guessed that Richard would think him the kind to avoid using overt violence.However, he would be mistaken.Caesar had the backing of the Augustus family who had shares in the Imperial army which meant under the right circumstances, Caesar could outfit and send out a small contingent to take care of the situation.And he had ma

Richard hadn't anticipated a sniper, especially one that made use of Spirit-infused military-grade equipment.However, that didn't mean he was completely out of options as his guards rushed over to protect him.He took out the black phone and immediately connected with the drones above.One of them was destroyed, most likely as a result of the sniper but the other which had its camouflage function turned on, wasn't.He watched as the sniper began to shift positions, perhaps in an attempt to get a better vantage point.Richard wasn't about to let that happen.“Protect Jerome. I'll be back.” He addressed his guards before taking off.Knowing fully well that the sniper would most likely be a Combatant, Richard couldn't afford to send his men after him since it would be a waste.He had to be the one to go but in time, once all was ready, Richard hoped that he would be able to cultivate a Combatant army.Of course, now wasn't the time to think about such things.He made his way through the

Caesar's speech was short to take advantage of the 3-minute rule.A few were already aware of what was about to happen and so, quickly began to prepare to shift camps but unexpectedly, their worries were unfounded.“We are here!” Richard announced loudly as he stepped into the suite, his gaze quickly locking on Caesar who was staring at him wide-eyed.'How come?... I made sure there would be so much trouble, he would have no chance to come on time. So how come?’ Caesar questioned inwardly as he tried to keep calm.“Mr. Smith, Could you tell us why your endorsed candidate would come late to the proceedings?” Prince Maverick remarked.“Your Highness, forgive our tardiness but when our enemies have decided to cause widespread destruction to prevent our early arrival, what are we to do?”Prince Maverick raised a brow as he inquired. “What do you mean?”Richard revealed a smirk as he replied. “If you don't mind. May I make use of a projector?” ***It was five whole minutes of gasps and mu

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
