Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 48
Gerald watched the stare-down between Richard and Diego, his heart bursting with jealousy at the former.How had he stumbled upon so much wealth in the little amount of time he'd been away? Gerald never thought that he would be able to share the stage with powerhouses like Diego even if he won ownership of Smith Industries.It was because in recent years their family business had taken numerous hits due to a lack of adequate management.At this point, the Smith family could hardly be compared to the Martinez that continuously grew.Yet, Richard, the outcast of the family, was already daring enough to be on the same level as Diego and even compete with him.Jealousy gave way to hatred and soon, Gerald was seething.He wished more than ever for Diego to put Richard in his place for only then would he gain some reprieve.This was why when Diego suggested Richard pay on the spot, he grew excited.What 1 billion?... Has the bastard ever seen 100 million in the first place?He looked forwa

With the auction over, the Smithsonian hall was emptied of guests and instead, the Smith family was left behind.Richard sat at the place of importance with Miranda seated beside him on the right and Maria standing on the right.Silence loomed over the hall as Richard regarded everyone present with light disdain.Not even one of them had shown regard for the Smith family and had abandoned it to side with foreigners.It was pathetic, to say the least.Then, his gaze landed on Veronica who was glaring hatefully at him."Do you have something you wish to say?" "Get off that chair, you bastard!... You aren't worthy of it." Veronica spat coldly.Richard chuckled. "But I own everything now, even the clothes on your back. At this point, Veronica, I am your master.""..." Veronica trembled, horribly angered by the fact that Richard was right.Richard smirked. "I am your master and you will treat me as such. For your outburst just now, I believe it's right you stay without food for two days."

Richard dropped Maria off at Serenity after she said she wished to pick up something before heading home after which he promptly made his way to his estate.After the debacle with Micky, the estate was completely in his name now and so, he'd moved into it permanently.He thought about bringing his grandma to stay with him but decided against it as he knew just how attached she was to the Smithsonian.It was unfortunate that Richard no longer deemed it necessary to stay there.Letting out a sigh, he soon arrived at the estate and then moved to one of the buildings he'd reserved for Anna.After he'd found out that she hadn't eaten yet from the servants he'd taken from the Smithsonian, he decided to take her out to lunch to help her clear her mind.They went to a restaurant called Jade Panda Restaurant located in the central district of Intercity.One could guess from its name that it was a restaurant that served mostly Asian cuisines.After getting themselves comfortable, Richard regard

Lesley felt this was his lucky day as he watched Grace grovel at his feet.Ever since he'd employed her, he'd always made advances at her to make her his woman but she always rejected him on the fact that he was already married.How dare she reject him?She was just a lowlife while he was the esteemed manager of the Jade Panda Restaurant.He served billionaires and wealthy men but she dared to reject him.He'd tried several times to get her to quit but Grace was so good at her job that she hardly made mistakes.So he overworked her, giving her more hours than necessary just to ensure she made a mistake.He thought she'd complain but she never did and he soon figured out why.Grace had a younger sister she was caring for.They were both orphans and so, she was the only one who could care for her sister.This made Lesley target her more, ensuring she had little time to spend with her younger one while waiting for the day she would mess up.Currently, Grace had been working for two days

After Gordon had successfully kicked out Lesley from the restaurant, he agreed to give Richard ownership of the company but asked to get some time to draw up the transfer papers.In the meantime, Richard paid the full fee and even extra for remodeling and renaming.With that done, Gordon promptly took his leave while Richard remained with Anna and Grace.Grace had tears in her eyes as she remarked. "Thank you so much sir, you don't know how much you've done for me today.""No need to thank me. I just can't stand when good people are mistreated by others.""You have given me such a responsibility sir, is there any way I can repay you?" Richard shook his head. "Just do your job properly and treat your employees with love and respect. As for the profits from this establishment, it will be utilized in the charity organization I'll be building soon so there's no need to think that you'd be working for me." "I will do my best sir!" "Alright, quickly get me and my date something to eat, t

The room was eerily silent as Richard regarded everyone present.Apart from Jacob, the others remained mum, preferring to watch and gauge his reactions.It seemed if he didn't accept their request, they were prepared to make things difficult for him in Intercity.After all, compared to them, even though Richard had greater financial power, they had more control over the city structure which meant it would be difficult to beat them.However, that didn't mean Richard was about to let them have their way with him.Even if it was the entire city against him, he would never back down!So he calmly replied. "A tempting offer but I would have to decline your request, gentlemen. I hope you aren't too offended.""Are you sure about this, Mr. Smith?" Jacob inquired, his earlier amicable smile replaced with a hostile look."I don't believe I stuttered." "You…" Jacob stopped himself before continuing. "Fine then, since you have decided to dig your grave, be prepared to fall into it sooner than y

Aston Martin was the second son of the Martin family, a billionaire family that made their wealth in the sales of expensive jewelry.It was said that they owned a gold mine in the west which allowed them to live in comfort.As a third-generation billionaire, it was understandable for Aston to look down on Richard despite knowing who he was.What youngest billionaire?... The media was fooled!His family didn't enjoy entering the limelight very much which was why Aston wasn't known.Compared to Richard, Aston felt himself to be worthy of the title of richest youth in Intercity.Unfortunately, he couldn't reveal himself so readily and so could only sit back to watch Richard enjoy the title.But now, seeing the fool come for an event that was organized for those like him, he couldn't help snorting in disdain.How dare he not know his limits?... Did he think he could waltz in anywhere just because he had made a little bit of money?Richard noticed Aston's derisive glare but said nothing of

"Why did you accept it?" Melinda couldn't help but ask in annoyance as she stood before Richard.The duo were currently in a waiting room, biding the time until the hastily constructed contest would take place.Richard remained calm as he replied. "You would rather I stay put while that pretty boy makes a mockery of me?""Of course not but you accepting to do this challenge is effectively falling into his trap. Aston's family isn't as simple as you think. They are similar to my Dawson family in a way.""They are also connected to the Golden Circle?" Richard inquired."Yes.""What guarantees one access to the Golden Circle, anyways?""... I can't tell you," Melinda replied."Oh?""If I did, it would make it difficult for you to refuse their offer when they arrive. Just know that in this contest, Aston has an advantage over you.""You are just scared that I'd lose and you'd have to spend the night with him.""Well, of course!"Richard chuckled. "Don't worry, I don't plan on losing.""Yo

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
