Seeing the soldiers of the Foxx family arrive, everyone in the hall felt like disappearing into thin air.Why had they come here to this party today?Most of the guests began to regret their decision of attending the Mondrich family celebration today.The Foxx family was known for being ruthless to their enemies, if they came to know that their representative had been insulted at this party, wouldn't they want to seek revenge from all of them?Not to mention two of the great families have deemed the Mondrich family as corrupt, would they as mere guests be dragged into this problem.Seeing this, all the guests no longer cared if Master Mondrich and Jason were innocent from Flint's accusations anymore, they just wanted to disappear from this event."This...M...Mr Crox, there's been a big misunderstanding. Why don't we do this? I'll take Harry back into my family, I'll make sure no one else ever calls him trash again from this day onwards, you...""Tsk, Master Mondrich, that's not how th
Jason's head swung to the side as the impact of the slap landed on his face. "You're a liar and a cheat!" Marina cried stomping her feet.Master Mondrich could barely move in his seat, his eyes kept darting here and there as if his mind was working speedily to find a solution to the situation. "Master...master things are getting out of hand, you have to do something." The butler said to master Mondrich in a panicked voice.Master Mondrich continued to grip the edge of his seat but he couldn't say anything.With this dirty secret revealed about Jason, it would be almost impossible to save him.But he couldn't lose his heir just like that, he had to do something..."Enough of this!" Master Mondrich yelled suddenly standing on his feet.Sending a glaring look towards Harry who stood innocently beneath the stage he swung his head to Peter."Mr Crox, don't you have a conscience or is it your goal to destroy a high ranking family like ours? Earlier young master Flint showed a video and my
"Congratulations Mr Crox, this building now belongs to you." Peter shook hands with Mr Philton after they finished signing the deal for the sale of the building at The Financial Market Street.With Flint's help he had met up with the real Mr Philton and the man had immediately sold the building to him without a hassle. With the building secured the advertisement for the search of skilled individuals was announced.Hearing the name Crox group of companies, many skilled people in the capital rushed to interview for several positions. "Did you hear who it was? Peter Crox, the idol of society. He's opening a new company and rumor has it that it's about to be the biggest empire in the capital so far.""The biggest empire? That's impossible right? The three great families rule the capital in several industries, how can a startup company become the biggest empire?" "What do you mean impossible? Right now there are over five hundred individuals lining outside Crox group of companies seeki
The basement wasn't dark and dingy as he had expected, it was like a completely different world."What is this place?" Peter muttered. The steps that led down to the basement were covered in bright green grass that clung to the wooden steps.The whole basement was lit up by bright fairy lights, flowers were hung all around the walls along with vines that looked like they were growing from within the walls themselves.The basement was large, one the left was a wide bed with pink bedding and fluffy pillows making it look like a girl's bedroom.On the right there was a table perched up against the wall with a wide screen computer on the desk, along with a keyboard and a set of stray papers lying around the desk.Peter glanced around once more, there was no one around.Peter walked towards the table curiously and picked up one of the papers lying around. The paper was splayed with neat handwriting in an unorganized manner.The words on the paper were like someone's imagination mentioning
Benedict hastily led Peter out of the basement and locked it. The girl was still staring at Peter in a daze as he was led away."Who is that girl?" Peter queried, with a confused hint to his voice.'Why do I feel like I know her, like I've met her before?' Benedict looked around the empty walls of his estate."Peter Crox, no one must know of what you just saw today." "What do you mean?" Peter couldn't understand why he had a young girl who looked no older than nineteen locked away in a basement."That girl is my child." Peter wasn't shocked about this revelation, he had heard the girl address Benedict as Daddy, but what he couldn't understand was..."Why do you have your daughter locked away in the basement?" Benedict motioned for him to lower his voice then after looking around once more, he said."Come with me." When they were within the private walls of Benedict's office, he finally began to speak."Years ago I wasn't supposed to be the leader and head of the Foxx family. Ther
"Hahaha!" Benedict laughed out loud. "How could you have met him before, you've been in here all your life." Benedict noticed the way his daughter was staring at Peter and he added."Peter, you heard it yourself. Camila just said you're the man of her dreams, now it's up to you to take responsibility. I won't oppose to a marriage between you two in a year or two."Camila's face turned red, "Daddy." She called in embarrassment. "I understand dear daughter, he's the first handsome man you've seen, girls your age would definitely have a crush. So Peter, what do you say to that, isn't my daughter really pretty? How about you take her on a date since you've helped her get her freedom by convincing me, you might as well show her around to see what she missed." The idea seemed to swirl in Benedict's head and the more he thought about it, the more he found it perfect.He had never considered giving his daughter away for marriage before, but now...this situation.It was beyond perfect!A Ti
When the plane landed in Landville, Samantha hurriedly found a cab, after calling her brother and asking for the hospital's location, she immediately headed there. "Sister!" Josh exclaimed happily as he saw her walking into the hospital, he hurriedly hugged her as he'd missed his sister. "Josh, has Grandpa's operation already begun?" Samantha asked anxiously. Josh nodded, "These doctors are so heartless, Grandpa was dying on his last breath but they all didn't care. They'd rather watch him die than perform the operation because we hadn't paid the hospital fees yet, I begged them to at least start the operation and we'd definitely pat but they didn't agree, if you didn't send the money at that time, I'm afraid Grandpa might have..."Seeing the sorrow in her brother's eyes, Samantha patted his head softly."Don't worry Josh, I'm here now. Everything is fine. Where Is aunt?" Josh lowered his head, that was when Samantha noticed the mark on the left side of his cheek.It looked like f

"Morning." Peter replied succinctly."Good morning sir.""Morning." With Harry and Rico behind him, Peter stepped out of the elevator and walked into the meeting room."Good morning president."
