Rags to Riches Chapter 120 Taint Her Innocence
"Huh? Vivian is your wife?" Hunter was so startled that his legs gave in. With a loud plop, he landed on his knees and groveled. "Please spare my life, Mr. Coleman!" "Well? Tell me what you've done with my wife," Marcus questioned as his eyes narrowed to slits. Hunter and his subordinates couldn't live past tonight if anything terrible happened to Vivian."Don't worry, Mr. Coleman. Mrs. Coleman is fine!" Hunter said while quivering. "I just tied her up and didn't touch a strand of her hair. I planned to present her as a gift to you. I didn't realize …"Marcus' frown eased after hearing that. With a nod, he responded, "It had better be as you say. Otherwise, I doubt you can bear the consequences. "You mentioned that someone hired you to travel here from the capital and kidnap my wife. Tell me—who gave you that order?""Luke from the Lorimer family," Hunter admitted. He then told him the details of Luke's plans for Vivian."How dare Luke come up with such a vile plot? How dis
Rags to Riches Chapter 121 Breaking News
"Is everything ready?" Luke's brows raised with excitement when he received Hunter's call. "I'll head over at once. It's a lot of work cleaning up after all that sex. Allow me to do it."After the call ended, Luke asked Faye, "Have you asked the tabloids and reporters to be in position?"The latter smirked at him. "Don't worry, Luke! Vivian's going down this time!"Luke left for Regal Point Hotel in a hurry once he got a satisfactory response. He needed to murder Vivian and make it look like she had ended her life after getting sexually assaulted. After all, he wanted to do more than ruin her reputation. Only her death would make him feel at ease.He soon arrived and opened the door to room 8088, only to see something he didn't expect. The space was empty. It made him feel suspicious. That was when the door fell shut. A tall, burly man appeared behind Luke, and he gazed at the latter with unconcealed lust."W-Who are you?" Luke felt a little afraid."You look handsome, pretty b
Rags to Riches Chapter 122 A Member of the Pantheon of the Drakon
The Lorimer family members didn't expect Vivian to admit she had brought the client over. "He's waiting outside."Nora shot a doubtful look at her. "Vivian, you must speak only the truth as Lorimer Group's vice president. If you dare lie about this, you'll become unqualified and no longer suitable for this position.""I'm not lying, Grandma." Vivian chuckled, then pointed at the door. "See? The client is here."Luke glanced toward the door and saw Hunter walking in. His face paled at once.Marcus had planned this to defend Vivian against Nora's scheme.Hunter approached Nora before greeting the latter. "You must be Madam Nora, right? Your vice president has welcomed me graciously. As the inspector representing my company, I'm satisfied and pleased. We'll invest 500 million into Lorimer Group."That baffled Nora. "What?" Even Luke and Faye couldn't believe it. After all, Hunter was only one of the Dark Dragon's subsidiary teams' leaders. How did he become a wealthy investor who
Rags to Riches Chapter 123 You Don't Have the Right
Needless to say, Marcus knew that the Pantheon of the Drakon owned more than half of the wealth and power worldwide. As the Drakon, Marcus was one of the two individuals in Merania who had military and political authority at his disposal. The other individual was that person in the capital.Jonathan from the Northfort military region was an elite soldier cultivated by the Pantheon of the Drakon. He was named one of Merania's Four Monstrous Generals. Along with the other three—Sebastian Simmons, Oliver Undergrove, and Elijah Steele—he followed the former Drakon to war.As a result of their overpowering win, the over 40 neighboring countries dared not mess with Merania ever again.The luxury cigars and alcohol enjoyed by the Monstrous General were produced by a specialized department. The production quality was at a whole new level compared to those enjoyed by the normal higher-ups.Marcus had made up his mind. "Okay. I'll choose this for Vivian's grandmother's birthday prese
Rags to Riches Chapter 124 Top Secret
"Mr. Hendrix, that's him!"The security guard, whose pistol was disassembled, pointed at Marcus. "This man is extremely dangerous. He might be a drug dealer or terrorist who has sneaked into the country!"Anakin Hendrix, who had a higher position than the security guards, sized Marcus up.The bullet wounds on Marcus' body were indeed a horrifying sight to behold.However, Anakin didn't sense any hint of danger from Marcus."Sir, please show us your ID. We need to verify your identity," said Anakin."No problem." Marcus handed his ID card to Anakin.The latter passed it to one of his subordinates. "Verify it."A minute later, the subordinate whispered into his ear."Top secret? Are you sure?" His expression changed when he heard that.The subordinate nodded firmly. "Yes. Mr. Hendrix, We've encountered someone whose identity is beyond our imagination."Since I've tried to access top-secret information, I'm sure the National Security Agency will come for an interrogation soon."
Rags to Riches Chapter 125 Honor
Even after they arrived at Northfort in time, Vivian couldn't believe that everything was real.They got out of the monorail.Vivian spoke to Marcus, "Marcus, mind explaining?" He glanced at Lisa before chuckling. "If I say that the railway station is mine, would you believe me?""It's really yours?" Lisa showed excitement.But she snorted coldly when she realized that she failed to control her emotions. "If you're this capable, you wouldn't have been a loser that relied on Vivian."Well, it's possible that you've found that mysterious billionaire. Because only a billionaire is able to do this.""Yup. I did contact the mysterious billionaire," Marcus admitted.She said smugly, "See? I knew it. A loser like you isn't that capable. But this proves how much the mysterious billionaire cares for Vivian."Marcus, you can never be as capable as he is. If you know your place well, you should leave Vivian yourself.""Mom, not again!" Vivian was ashamed.Marcus found it hilarious bec
Rags to Riches Chapter 126 Is It Marcus
Polly snapped, "How could you make this kind of joke? Lisa, could you teach your matrilocal son-in-law some manners? This is rude."The other three Childe sisters didn't interrupt, waiting for the show to unfold.Feeling humiliated, Lisa glared at Marcus. "Shut up, Marcus. No one would have said anything if you'd just stayed still and kept quiet."Marcus shrugged his shoulders, unbothered by the ignorant people.Maisie Lane, Yvette's daughter, made a call before announcing, "My boyfriend told me that he's going to take a day off and come over to celebrate Granny's birthday."As for Colonel Samson, my boyfriend will give it a try by inviting him over. After all, it's not easy to invite someone like Colonel Samson.""True. Let's leave it to luck." Howard nodded approvingly."It's best if he can come, but we can't possibly force him over if he can't," Brad said.Steven said, "Yeah. It is an honor that Maisie's boyfriend is able to come."After all, Maisie's boyfriend was a sergea
Rags to Riches Chapter 127 Birthday Presents
After all, among the Childe sisters, Lisa's family was the only family that had yet to show off their connections.It was Shirley's 60th birthday party. Yet, Lisa brought only Vivian and Marcus along.The fact that she didn't bring the other Lorimers displeased Shirley and Norman.Although the Childes weren't as well-off as the Lorimers, they were still considered a prestigious family in Northfort.Now that all eyes were on him, Marcus coolly admitted, "Yeah. I invited them over."While the four uncles were immersed in the discussion, Marcus had secretly sent Jonathan a message.Marcus requested Jonathan to bring Gary along to Shirley's birthday party.Brad mocked him. "Stop bragging already! I think they came because of Zeke. Colonel Samson must've rushed over here after finishing his important mission."Look. Commander Zarr has come as well. We can clearly tell how much the leaders in Northfort favor Zeke."The guests gave it some thought, concluding that he indeed made sens

Sean nodded in agreement. "Exactly. Alan and the others really can't adapt. Why bring military rules into everything else?"Wallace glanced at Sean and said, "Of course, Marcus can earn my respect if he can demonstrate the strength that commands it."Sean shook his head. "I find that unlikely. Take the bet, for instance. If he can really break past the Colemans' gates a year from now, maybe we can respect him."Wallace sneered. "With just that? Does he even deserve our respect for that?"Breaking past the Colemans' gates is just the beginning."To earn our respect, he has to make it onto the Meranian Wolf List!""Meranian Wolf List?" Sean's eyes lit up.In the Meranian military, the Meranian Wolf List was a reflection of a soldier's strength. Those who made the list were undoubtedly individuals with exceptional powers. The higher the rank, the stronger the individual.Among the top 50 on the Meranian Wolf List were figures feared by enemy nations. Even Chief Commander Wal

The bastard son despised by Mr. Coleman Senior has turned out to be Merania's guardian, the commander-in-chief!"Zakir nodded in agreement. "Mr. Coleman Senior was right. The commander-in-chief is indeed a member of the Colemans! It's ridiculous. Mr. Coleman Senior went to great lengths to uncover the commander-in-chief's true identity and background, not knowing that the commander-in-chief is his own son!""This matter must be kept absolutely confidential. Under no circumstances should we reveal the commander-in-chief's true identity to Mr. Coleman Senior. Otherwise, the five of us will not only ruin our future but may also spend the rest of our lives behind bars!" Al

Marcus, too, did not expect that the Colemans who invited him and Vivian to dinner would turn out to be these troublemakers.

I'm afraid that the reason they invited us to dinner all of a sudden is because...."Marcus smiled as if the situation didn't bother him. "Are you worried they might have ulterior motives? Don't worry. Let's just agree to their invitation. It's just dinner!"Vivian was speechless at Marcus' response. Those people were part of the Colemans.It was clear that they were targeting Marcus.

This also highlighted that Marcus' realm far surpassed that of the Colemans, who claimed to be the top ancient family for a millennium. Alan and the others returned to their line respectfully.Marcus surveyed the group with a serious expression. "The technique I'm about to teach you is a special art of breathing. "Although it looks simple, mastering its essence will take at least a year. "Of course, as elite individuals carefully cultivated by your respective families, I believe you can grasp the basics in just a month."The excitement was evident on the faces of the individuals upon hearing what Marcus said. The commander-in-chief was personally teaching them a special art.It was a big opportunity for those eager to level up. After all, the commander-in-chief was all-powerful and mighty.

The individuals all listened attentively as Marcus began his class. They appeared respectful and eager to learn. Marcus extended four fingers and said, "Before we officially start the lesson, I'd like to give you a lesson in morals. The name of this lesson shall be 'Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality.'"Marcus signaled Edwin and Leona to fetch a small blackboard. Marcus held the chalk and wrote the words, "Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality." His movements were powerful."Indeed, you all have what it takes to be proud due to your strengths, for you are all invincible in your respective regions. However, you came to Dragon Training Camp to seek breakthroughs and receive guidance at a higher level."Marcus surveyed the crowd and said, "But no matter how strong you all are, you should respect the instructor who guides you."Each of you is exceptionally intelligent.

"Yes! He must prove himself. Otherwise, I'm not convinced!""He dares to disregard the Meranian Wolf List top 100. If he can actually demonstrate such abilities, I'll pretend I never heard those words!"As Alan spoke, the others responded in agreement.Chad added, "It might be difficult for him to surpass every member of the Meranian Wolf List top 100, but at least he should have the qualifications to be among them, right?"The group noticed that Marcus remained silent, and their arrogance increased.Zakir was amused. "What's the matter? Are you backing down? In life, you need to follow the rules and not spout nonsense! "Don't act all big if you don't have what it takes!"Just then, Marcus spoke up. "You've all misunderstood. I didn't respond immediately because I was considering how to demonstrate my strength."After all, weaklings like you have never witnessed a true spectacle."To Marcus, these individuals were nothing but weaklings.

Alan and the others heard what Marcus said, and a playful expression appeared on their faces.How dare this kid challenge them?Alan squinted and said, "You can be our instructor, but you'll have to display enough strength to convince us."You probably can't reach the level of Merania's Four Gunlords and Gary."But you should at least reach the level of the Eight Warriors, right?"The others looked on with a look of expectation.They all looked at Marcus with mocking eyes.Chad, who was on the side, said, "Alan, how about we set a standard for this kid? Only those recognized by the members of the Meranian Wolf List are qualified to be our instructor!""Right!"
