Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 361
Richard spent the rest of the day with Melinda while also making preparations for his travel to Metro City to search for his mother.In the meanwhile, he also had to make preparations for when the Queen Mother would come for him which caused him to place Arturo and the guardsmen on constant watch over the Smithsonian.As he was, he could handle himself, unfortunately same couldn't be said for his family.The day after, once he was sure everything would be fine with his absence, he got on his private jet and left for Metro City with Melinda in tow.***Metro City was located on the west side of the Empire, close to the border they shared with Riverdale.Due to this, Metro City shared a lot of similarities with Riverdale with several from that country finding themselves a home in the city.Richard's flight touched down two hours after he'd taken off from Intercity.Having already booked a hotel with the help of Maria, Richard went through security with minimal trouble which was great co

Getting out of the cab which stopped them at the beginning of the street leading to the hotel because taxis weren't allowed close to the building as a result of how high class it was, Richard promptly paid the driver before heading down the street with Melinda.Taking the opportunity to savor the solace the lonely street brought them, Melinda inquired while holding hands with Richard. “Do you think I'm rushing things?”“Hmm?”“With, you know, everything.”Richard paused, unsure of how to respond before finally breaking the silence. “Honestly, no.”“Why do you say so?”“Because if you let me, I'd rather be alone till I die. That's how scared I am of commitment after…” he trailed off unwilling to finish the sentence though Melinda caught the gist.Leaning in, she planted a kiss on his cheek as she remarked. “Don't worry, nothing of that sort will ever happen again.”Richard glanced at her and seeing the honesty in her eyes, nodded in response. “I trust you.”With that, the two fell back

There were quite a few billionaire families in Metro City, of course not as many as in Intercity or even the capital of Riverdale, but they were there.Perhaps because of their low numbers, they considered themselves akin to royalty and nobility, treating those below them as scum.The men were trash and the women were merely properties waiting to be owned.That was the mentality Cedric was born with.As the firstborn son and heir to the Remus family wealth, he was amongst the most elite of society, enjoying the best of life with no impedance.All women were his to claim and all men had to bow in his presence.This was why he was surprised to meet a couple that didn't immediately cower in his presence and instead, they dared to scrutinize him with intrigued looks.The last something like this had happened, he had crippled the man and made the woman beg him to spare her husband's life.He pondered doing the same thing now but chose not to, at least, not immediately.Firstly, he needed t

The silence was deafening as Cedric stared at the manager.He was quite familiar with the man, having wished to get on his good side several times.Unfortunately, apart from his father who was on good terms with him, the manager never once considered Cedric someone to respect which made Cedric wonder what made Richard worthy of that respect he lacked.“You…”Cutting him off, the manager further addressed Richard. “If you don't mind, I'd like to offer tonight's services as well as the rest of your time here as an on-the-house promo for the inconvenience.”“I don't need that, I just need this circus to end,” Richard remarked in exasperation.“Understood.” The manager gestured for his guards to open the gate before remarking. “Right this way please.”Letting out a tired sigh, Richard took Melinda's hand and entered, leaving Cedric unable to move an inch as he stared at their retreating.Despite not being spoken to, he felt even more insulted but found himself unable the do anything about

Having no idea he was actively signing his death warrant, the manager of the restaurant bellowed. “You bitch, can't you even do one thing right?... How dare you ruin the night of our special guest like that?” “I'm so sorry, sir, please forgive me, it was a mistake. It won't happen again.” The waitress begged in between gasps clutching her stomach.The manager glared at her. “Fucking bitch, I should relieve you of your job at this rate.”Preparing to kick the woman again, Melinda moved to stop him as she knew Richard's moving would most likely end in a few broken bones and a potential hospital visit.“Look, it's okay, there's hardly a need for you to treat the poor lady like that. Everyone makes mistakes.” Melinda tried to explain but the manager remained adamant.“You don't understand, madam, this woman is a fucking annoyance. If I don't teach her a lesson, she'll never learn.”“Then might as well fire her instead of manhandling her like this.”“That can't do. She has to pay for ever

Richard didn't even bother using the elevator as he rushed for the stairs, leaving Melinda behind while performing parkour on his way down.Moving as fast as he could, he reached the ground floor soon enough before heading for the elevator only to find that the waitress was no longer there.Apprehensive, he made for the hotel exit.As he pushed open the glass doors and hurried for the gate, he ended up seeing no one there.“Damn it, did you see a waitress pass through here?” He questioned the guard who immediately put his hands up on surrender.“Workers at the hotel aren't allowed to follow the front gate as they might come across customers of the hotel, for that reason, a back gate is utilized when we complete our shifts.”Richard's eyes flickered with understanding as he realized he'd made a wrong turn.Letting go of the guard, he rushed to where he expected the back gate to be but unfortunately… he didn't find her there.“...” He restrained the urge to curse aloud as he let out a f

Due to her eccentric personality, Tabby wasn't exactly a favorite for most people in the slums.Add that on to Ferguson's scheming and she found herself surrounded by several people claiming her to be the thief that had been terrorizing their neighborhood for the past few weeks.Confused by the abrupt accusations, Tabby remarked. “I don't understand. I didn't do anything of that sort.”“Just shut up and stop trying to act innocent. We all know you did it. We found all the stolen items in your home!”Tabby, still confused, replied. “But…”“Why are we still listening to this thief?... Just grab her, we'll make sure she pays for everything she's stolen.”And just like that, several men moved to grab her causing her to struggle.“Let me go!” She cried out in apprehension but none seemed to care as they prepared to mete out maximum punishment for her crimes.Just then, there was a loud horn noise followed by the screeching of a car.Everyone had their attention drawn to the source of findi

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
