Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 367
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

It was an unfortunate turn of events.Tabby, whose real name was Leia, was Tabitha's best friend when she arrived in Metro City after leaving Intercity to get away from the Queen Mother's henchmen who would have found out about Richard and the Smith family had she not escaped when she did.On arriving at Metro City, Leia had been the one to help Tabitha settle in, even taking her into her home despite knowing nothing about her. With time, the two women grew close enough for Tabitha to reveal tidbits about herself though she was careful not to reveal too much.Even then, their bond grew stronger and for a while, everything seemed to be going fine.That was until he came.He was a Great elder of a powerful family in the capital that served the Throne.He had found Tabitha somehow and intended to kill her even if it meant destroying the city while at it.Tabitha would have run… but knowing that Leia was still in Metro City, she had no choice but to fight.She fought with the Great Elder

Richard and Melinda spent one more day in Metro City not because they wanted to but because they had no choice.Considering Royale Hotel wished to deepen its relationship with Orion Corp, Richard had the responsibility of attending a meeting to discuss the specifics.It would have been easy to get Maria to handle the work but knowing that soon the relationship they shared would be changing, Richard decided to stop treating her as an employee and embrace the thought of her becoming his woman soon.So with that understanding, he attended the meeting with the higher-ups of the Royale Hotel with Melinda seated beside him.The meeting lasted for roughly two hours with the Royale Hotel higher-ups agreeing with Richard's proposal which served to ensure Royale Hotel would remain as the number one hotel in Metro City while also getting the privilege to expand their reach to not only Intercity but Riverdale and even other countries as well.With the meeting done with, the higher-ups tried to ge

As Maverick waited for the explosion that was sure to occur, the Emperor finally remarked.[In that case, inform the plane crew I sent that they should return to the capital by noon tomorrow. There's no need for them to remain]Maverick was left speechless as he raised his head to regard his father, having not expected such a response.Was the Emperor truly not offended by Richard's decision or was he just acting?It was hard to say so after much thought, Maverick nodded. “Understood Father.”[Good. Now leave me, I have to rest]“As you wish.”With that, the video call ended and Maverick was finally able to let out a relieved sigh as his shoulder slumped.“Did you hear that?” Maverick inquired a minute after once his heart had calmed.His aide, the only one present in the room with him, replied. “Yes, Your Highness.”“Has there ever been a time when father was so calm?... Richard had rejected his token yet not only did he not get upset, he even gave the flight crew a few hours off.”“

The news of the completion of the building that was to house Orion Corp was enough to send Intercity into an uproar as it was a project that was sure to change the landscape of the business world.Before now, most businessmen considered Orion Corp to be a pipe dream consisting of a lot of mismatched pieces that were sure to clash.According to them, as long as Richard didn't figure out a means to deal with the individuality of the companies he owned, Orion Corp would never be able to take its place as a conglomerate capable of standing on the international stage.It was for that reason that few were willing to work with Richard with many opting to work directly with Richard instead of going through Orion Corp.However, with the announcement of the ceremony to be held soon to commemorate the official establishment of Orion Corp, many of those naysayers had no choice but to accept that they were wrong in their declarations with many booking flights and expressing their desire to be a pa

The situation in the capital was a mixture of tension, intrigue, and anticipation after the news of the Legacy spread.Some families considered it a blessing, stating that it was providence that the Legacy would emerge at a time when the Zion Empire had begun to feel threatened by other countries due to its declining strength.Then others were afraid.Afraid that the Legacy would bring a change to the status quo, after all, hadn't it been the same when Ruinous Drake first emerged in the world?With Richard, they had already investigated everything they could and the news they received wasn't optimistic at all.They called him a hero and a man of the people, a man who disregarded the concept of classes and treated everyone equally.Such a man was destined to destroy the system that currently needed such segregation and that was why despite knowing it was wrong, they all supported the Queen Mother.Currently, they were all seated in a dark hall with the Queen Mother seated at the place o

“I am only asking if perhaps we could consider other options than just blaming an innocent man,” Richard remarked causing Patricia to snort.“Are you so dense, Mr. Smith?... You would believe this beggar over someone like me?... I always knew you preferred these beggars to the upper-class members of society, but if you love them so much, why do you keep flaunting your wealth?... You should just stay at their level.”Richard raised a brow. “You are going off tangent, Ms. Durmont.”“Oh spare me the bullshit. I will surely make that beggar pay, one way or another, that's for certain.” Patricia remarked, adamant in her choice.Richard nodded. “Fine then, in that case, you leave me no choice.”Pulling his black phone, he casually unveiled the network of drones that had been hovering over the party since the moment he arrived.Due to being camouflaged, no one had noticed them up until now.Patricia noticed the cameras on them causing her to tremble.“What's the meaning of this?” She asked.

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
