Before anyone could react, the large groups entered into the Jones main hall.

It was obvious that Edward was just being reprimanded by the family.

Bella hotels was the first to speak.

She said calmly,

“I am sorry to inform you that our board just had a meeting. We have decided to end our association with your company.”

Grandma Jones was shocked.

She asked Bella,

“Why would you do that!? We have been working together for so many years!”

Before Bella could say anything, Eugene followed suit and said.

“It seems like President Bella is trying not to hurt your feelings so she hasn’t told you the real reason why we need to end our relationship with your company.”

He went straight to the point.

“We heard from a reliable source that the Jones family had been cheated off all its assets. We do not want to belong to your bankruptcy. We hope that you will consider this purely a business decision.”

Grandma Jones lip quivered as she replied,

“President Kim, you have gone too far! Our situation isn’

    For a moment, the entire room fell silent.Grandma Jones thought long and hard before answering,“Mr. Don, you understand that we are really desperate this time. However, don’t you think the conditions are a bit extreme?”“Grandma Jones, you know very well that the family’s assets aren’t worth three hundred million.”Turner said seriously.“This is a very fair offer. If you can’t accept my conditions then we can all move on. I am sure there are people in Veridonia who would be willing to sign up a deal with me.”Without waiting for Grandma Jones to speak, Tuner continued.“To be honest, I could easily walk away from this deal. I run a business, not a charity. You have three minutes to consider my offer.”Everyone in the room turned and stared at Grandma Jones.They all knew that without this opportunity, they would be finished.Granma Jones gritted her teeth and replied evidently,“Alright Mr. Don, I agree to your conditions.”Suddenly, the room broke into light debate.Some of them w

    “Since you don’t believe me, there is no point in trying to convince you.”Kevin answered.Dominic hesitated for a moment before he continued,“How much do you want for it?”“What do you mean?”Kevin asked in shock.“I mean, what is your price?”Dominic asked again.Actually, Dominic still didn’t believe that Kevin’s pill would work and knowing that Kevin was from the Jones family didn’t help but, he just couldn’t pass on this chance.He already took the special supplements that had been developed just for him and he wants something more.Considering the circles he moves with, he needed more energy focus and strength.Dominic had also spent years training in the martial arts but he was also fighting against the energy focus.It was worth a try.“Mr. Andrews, I know you are rich and powerful but you can’t solve everything with money.”Kevin said coolly.“Just name your price!”Dominic said stubbornly.Kevin didn’t answer right away.He thought about it and said,“Five hundred.”“Ok.

    “He is very handsome.” Irene said to Lily.She turned to Kevin and asked,“Where do you work? What is your position?”“I work for a small company down-town” Kevin said casually.“I help my boss with his accounts.” He added.He could tell what Irene was trying to do but he didn’t want to be involved in her games.“A small company should have a name, shouldn’t it? If you help your boss with his accounts, you must have some kind of title.”Irene wouldn’t drop the subject until she was satisfied.“I guess you could call me a clerk.” Kevin replied modestly.Nobody was impressed and it showed on their faces.“I guess it doesn’t matter if he is just a clerk… in any case, Lily holds a powerful position in Williams Media. Even though you don’t earn enough, she could still support you.”Irene said proudly.She knew that she had annoyed Martha this time.Martha wanted to go over and tell Kevin off but, she couldn’t do it front of her friends.Lily looked uncomfortable and regret bringing Kevin a

    “Leo, we are family now. There is no need to give me anything really.”Irene said with a hideous smile on her face.While she said, she took the gift from Leo acting reluctant.Her friends begged her to open the present and as they all watched enviously, Irene happily opened the package.When she pulled out the gift, everyone immediately gasped in surprise.Inside the box was a bright sparkling bracelet, decorated with precious gems.They couldn’t believe their eyes.One of her friends exclaimed,“Irene, your son in-law is so generous!”Irene was also very surprised and asked Leo,“This bracelet is beautiful, Leo. I hope it didn’t cost you too much?”Irene deliberately asked this question.She knew Leo was quite rich but she did it to taunt Martha even more.“It didn’t cost that much, mom. Just about thirty thousand dollars.”Leon smiled and said.“But the price is not important. What matters is whether you like it.”Lily looked at the expensive bracelet that Irene was holding in her

    Martha anxiously looked at the box.She let out a deep sigh and finally made her decision.This would probably be another disappointment in her competition with Irene but with all the peer pressures, she has no choice.But she consoled herself thinking that, as soon as she got home, she would make sure Lily divorces Kevin.The room grew silent as she opened the box.A sparkling diamond necklace came to their view.“Kevin, is this really from you!?” Martha asked in displease.“Do you like it, mom?” Kevin asked with a smile.Martha’s friends didn’t want to believe that this was a real diamond necklace.How could someone like Kevin, a common clerk in a small company afford to buy such an expensive necklace?On the other hand, it sure looked like the diamonds were real.Gazing at the glistening necklace, Leo’s mouth went dry in astonishment, rendering him speechless with disbelief.Even from where he was sitting, he could tell that the diamonds were real. It was definitely not something y

    Even though Kevin had a long day, he could still go to the gym and exercised for over thirty minutes.It was refreshing doing this in the comfort his apartment.The next morning, Lily got a call from her family.They were having another meeting.She didn’t bother to inform Kevin because she wasn’t ready to talk to him yet after their conversation last night.She took a taxi and headed to the Jones mansion.A little while later, Kevin woke up from a very deep and refreshing night of sleep.He felt so much energy and strength within him.Looking around the house, he couldn’t find Lily.He could tell that she had her doubts about him but he wasn’t just ready to tell her the whole truth about his background and how wealthy he is.He shrugged his shoulders and prepared to go to his office at Williams Media.Sitting on the soft cushion chair in his office, Kevin muttered to himself.“This pill and ingredient is really efficient. I feel so energetic.”Meanwhile, the Jones family was discussi

    Lucas’s voice blared from the phone.“Oh my! Drake, I hardly get calls from you. What is going on?”Lucas asked directly.“Mr. Lucas, the Jones family is planning to sell some shares and we’d rather sell it to you than some strangers. So, I’m wondering if you are interested.”Drake talked seriously as he saw the amazed looks on his family member’s faces.“How can I turn down an offer like that!?”Lucas said candidly.“Why don’t we meet up and talk about this face to face. In fact, I am in Veridonia right now.”“That’s great, Lucas. Tell your driver to take you to the Jones family mansion. I’ll be waiting for you here.”Drake hung up the call and turned around to speak to his grandmother,“Grandma, it’s settled. Mr. Lucas will be here in a little while.”“You are showing yourself to be very useful, Drake.”Grandma Jones said with a smile.“If you could succeed in this deal with Mr. Bernard, I’ll make sure you are next in line to inherit the family business.”“Thank you, Grandma.”Drake

    She was at loss for words but before she could say something, Lucas continued.“You have no other choice than to sell me your shares. You think you can find anyone in the whole of Veridonia who would be willing to pay one hundred and seventy-five million dollars for your useless shares!?”“But it will not be appropriate for me to offer her to you because of a business deal.”Grandma Jones explained.“If a hundred and seventy-five million isn’t enough, I’ll make it two hundred and fifty million.”Lucas Bernard countered as he smiled and looked at Matilda.“According to my research, Matilda is still untouched and she is not seeing anyone at the moment.”Grandma Jones and the entire family could not bear to hear this.A part of Grandma Jones was actually weighing the offer. After all, Lucas Bernard was willing to give them over two hundred million dollars.There was nothing to lose.Grandma Jones also thought about how Matilda’s life would be much better if she should marry Lucas Bernard

    After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr

    "How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra

    "It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd

    "That has to be disappointing. You think you're more handsome than me? Everyone knows that just isn't true." Kevin teased him. "What do you mean by that?" Mike retorted as he slammed his fist on the table. "Don't be angry, Mike. This whole thing really isn't worth it." Lionel tried to persuade his friend. Then Luther tried to calm him down. "Relax, Mike. You're absolutely right. Kevin must be jealous of you. That's why I said there's something wrong with this pill.""You still don't understand, do you? Both you and your father were cheated by someone. This isn't an augmentation pill at all. Kevin told them bluntly. An augmentation pill is more of a light blue color. Plus it contains some floral ingredients which gives it a beautiful fragrance. Take another look at the medicinal pill you just gave our professor." Kevin continued."It's obviously the wrong color and has no fragrance at all." They were all stunned to hear him say this. Even Penny reacted and stared keenly at Kevin. Mike

    "Don't be so modest, Mike. Who is better qualified to be our class leader?" Luther chimed in. The rest of the students just sat there quietly and watched the show that the three of them were putting on. But they didn't want to seem ungrateful. So they were willing to go along with the idea of electing Mike to the position."Since no one has any objections, then how could I decline? But let's just call it a temporary position. If anyone feels that I'm not carrying my weight, just say so." Mike declared as he raised his glass to toast his classmates.Professor Murdock stayed out of the discussion. And quietly observed her students as they drank their wine and socialized with each other. Meanwhile, Penny just sat quietly by the window nursing her glass to mute. Her classmates were too intimidated by her to go up and talk to her.While this was going on, Mike took Lionel aside and asked him to go down to his car and bring back a red gift box that he'd left in the trunk. Lionel came back a

    "Since you think this is just a bus pass, I guess I'll just put it back in my wallet." Kevin said as he started to take it back from the concierge. “Well, since you've already taken it out, why don't we give it a try?" Mike replied. He obviously didn't want to pass up this opportunity to make Kevin look like a fool. So he ran things up and added."Let's see what the hotel staff can do with it." While the crowd was laughing at Kevin, the hotel employees were staring in disbelief. They weren't sure how to defuse the situation. The employee who was holding Kevin's card started to get very nervous when she took a good look at it. During their training, all of the employees of the Whistler Hotel had been required to memorize the appearance of the Supreme VIP card. And that's exactly what Kevin had handed her. Cook had explained to them that there were only five cards like this in all of Veridonia. And they were only given to the hotel's most prestigious clients.The group of students saw t

    "Unfortunately, the Whitsler Hotel's largest room was only available to special guests." Mitchell Cook didn't mind if the largest private rooms remained empty most of the time. It was more important to have them available for his wealthiest clients. Since the staff hadn't been alerted by Cook that there would be a VIP group this evening, they assumed that this bunch of students didn't have the proper reservation."What kind of rule is that? I don't have a membership card, and I'm not from around here. All we need is a room. I don't care how much it costs. I'm willing to cover it." Mike said confidently."I'm sorry, sir. Without a VIP membership card, we won't be able to open the room for you." The concierge replied firmly. "Then can I apply for a membership card right now?" Mike asked. You could tell he was extremely disappointed to see his plans fall apart like this."I'm sorry, sir. Our largest private room is only available for our most exclusive members. Als

    "Please, just say it. You won't hurt my feelings." Kevin exclaimed as he watched the road. "Just look at what happened in the parking lot. Your classmates were all looking down on you because they thought you didn't have a car. It seems that you invite this kind of ridicule, “she said bluntly."If you're too embarrassed to take anything from your wife, then you really should jump at this opportunity." Professor Murdock told him earnestly. "The School for the Healing Arts is the greatest opportunity in your life. Just work hard and focus. If you have any questions, you can always come to me. This is your chance to make a name for yourself.""I understand what you're saying, Professor. I'll definitely work harder from now on," he replied. Kevin stopped at a crosswalk and said to her very sincerely, "But could you please give me my phone back first? I promise I won't take it out during class."“Haven’t you been listening to me?" she snapped at him

    "Mike's absolutely right," Lionel agreed. Kevin, "Professor Murdock really took it easy on you today. That's why you're being allowed to come along to tonight's dinner. Don't put any of your classmates in an embarrassing position. Just take a taxi. If you don't have enough money on you for a cab or to call for a ride on your own, I'll give you a few bucks to cover you. How about $20?" Then he pulled some cash out of his pocket and offered it to Kevin.Everyone around them laughed when they saw him do this. They really thought Kevin was pathetic. Kevin frowned as he looked at the money in Lionel's hand. He wondered what the heck was wrong with these guys. "Aren't you overwhelmed by my generosity?" Lionel grinned as he patted Kevin on the shoulder. "There's no need to thank me. After all, we're classmates.""Did I tell you I needed a ride? “Kevin replied very coolly. "What do you mean? Don't tell me you drove here." Mike sneered."You really drove here, Kevin? Quick, show everyone what
