Rags to Riches Chapter 150 It's Actually Real
"Vivian, there's no need to explain to a good-for-nothing like him." Polly held Vivian's arm and said enthusiastically, "Marcus is just a matrilocal son-in-law who relies on his wife. How can he be a good match for you, the vice president of the Childe Group?"On the other hand, Mr. Brenner comes from a rich family in Northfort. If both of you get married, it will benefit the Childe family a lot."Take a look at Marcus. What else can he do besides doing the laundry and cooking for you? Vivian, we are doing this for your own good.""Exactly!" Howard chimed in as well. "Mr. Brenner doesn't mind that you are married and even asked his parents to come. You must show them some respect at least."Vivian was rendered speechless. She looked at Marcus to ask for help. However, Marcus did not say anything.It disappointed Vivian. She wondered if Marcus had chickened out. After all, Leon was an excellent young man with a good family background. Marcus could hardly be compared to him."Every
Rags to Riches Chapter 151 He is Still a Braggart
When Vivian walked into Cloudosphere, she saw a red carpet laid down from the entrance all the way to the banquet table. Five waiters were standing on each side of the red carpet with bouquets in their hands.When Vivian walked across the red carpet, the waiters bowed down and shouted, "Happy birthday, Ms. Lorimer!" Apart from Marcus and the rest, Cloudosphere was empty.Vivian walked across the red carpet as if she were a star who had all the attention on her.When she walked to the end of the red carpet and arrived at the best seat in the restaurant by the floor-to-ceiling window, the song "Happy Birthday" started playing.A violinist wearing a tuxedo played the accompaniment on the stage.When Marcus clapped his hands, bursts of fireworks could be heard outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Although it was daytime, the colorful fireworks still illuminated the sky.The fireworks burst into a sentence. "Happy Birthday, Vivian!" Everyone in Northfort could see the words in th
Rags to Riches Chapter 152 The Pretty Rich Lady Who Paid for Imperial No. 1 in Full
Brenda could not stand by and watch any longer when she heard what Emily said. "I know Marcus is an idiot who likes to bluff. Why are you sticking your nose in this now? Is my family's situation not chaotic enough for you?"“Brenda, I'm not defending Marcus. Listen to me…" Before Emily could explain to Brenda, Marcus took out a key and a keycard. Then, he gave it to Vivian.The keycard had Vivian's name and the words "Imperial No. 1" engraved on it.Although it was Emily who signed the purchase agreement instead of Marcus, Emily still wrote Vivian as the tenant of the property. It was a procedure that could be arranged for a rich person with a credit card limit of a trillion dollars."Is it really Imperial No. 1?" Vivian was surprised and confused. "I heard Imperial No. 1 was sold for 30 million dollars. Even the Childe family couldn't afford it! Marcus, where did you get all this money to buy Imperial No. 1 for me?""Impossible!" Leon was shocked. He shook his head and said, "How
Rags to Riches Chapter 153 A Brutal Method
"Here's what I think, Mrs. Childe!" Brad stubbed the cigarette in his hand and said, "Vivian represented Childe Group in winning the tender for Easton Ninepoint Corporation's Northfort Pinnacle Hotel construction project."All of us from Childe Group were supposed to benefit from this, but Ninepoint Corporation said the project must be handled by Vivian alone. Otherwise, they will announce the termination of the contract. "I don't know what tricks Vivian did to get the trust of Ninepoint Corporation's president. Vivian reaped all the benefits and left nothing for us!""We know all that." Norman waved his hand. "Brad, get straight to the point!""After this, Vivian will be staying in Northfort for a long time to be in charge of the Northfort Pinnacle Hotel's construction. We can't see her reap the rewards and do nothing, right? So…"Brad paused and showed a mysterious grin. He lowered his voice and said, "Why don't we do something brutal to her? Let's sabotage the construction sit
Rags to Riches Chapter 154 You Can't Afford to Offend This Woman
"Ms. Lorimer, are you kidding me?" Keetes pointed to the group of men behind him and said, "Don't you see them? All of them are locals living here. All of them must be compensated."Vivian knew that the man meant the compensation was not enough. She asked, "How much do you want?""50 million dollars," Keetes said with a smile."50 million dollars?" Vivian was shocked by the amount.She said angrily, "You are too greedy! Even the Childe Group can't pay so much money, let alone myself.""The Childe Group got the Northfort Pinnacle Hotel project worth billions of dollars. Do you think I'll believe that you can't pay 50 million dollars?"Keetes was certain he could extort that much money from Vivian. "I don't care! You must compensate us with 50 million dollars. Otherwise, we will stay here every day. Don't even think about beginning construction here.""How dare you!" Vivian was furious. She realized they were not locals but gangsters."Ms. Lorimer, what should we do now?" the sup
Rags to Riches Chapter 155 Who the Hell Was That?
"What are you talking about?" Harvey was dumbfounded and gave Terry a peculiar look.Harvey could not understand why Terry asked him to apologize to Vivian and even told him that she was a woman whom he could not afford to offend.Harvey might not be the top dog in the underworld, but he was not weak. Even Terry and the rest had to show him a little respect.Harvey laughed and said, "I can't afford to offend Vivian? What a joke!""Harvey, listen to me." Terry still tried to advise him with a serious face. "Give up while you can. You might still live.""Seriously, Terry. Why are you siding with Vivian? What has gotten over you today? Oh, I get it. Are you jealous because I extorted Vivian successfully?"Harvey chuckled and said, "Terry, don't worry! I won't treat you guys badly when I get the money. Once I have 50 million dollars, let's have fun at the casino in Las Vegas! What do you think? Is that good enough?""I …" Terry was helpless. His good intentions were unappreciated an
Rags to Riches Chapter 156 Prove Our Innocence
Gary, who led the team to battle, approached to salute Marcus. "Greetings, commander-in-chief! Northfort's special forces have surrounded the upcoming five-star Northfort Pinnacle Hotel's construction site. We're ready to fight at any moment. Please give us your instructions!""C-Commander-in-chief …?" Harvey became baffled. He had about Gary's revered reputation as the commander of Northfort's special forces. Harvey dared not imagine the young man's identity if Gary had to address the young man as "commander-in-chief.""Those gangsters committed a terrible crime! They interfered with Northfort Pinnacle Hotel's construction and tried to extort money! The usual legal procedures call for their arrest and a trial to determine their sentences. Yet, we've been deployed on a military task. So, we have the right to kill any criminal who threatens the country's safety," Marcus stated coldly."Understood, sir." With that, Gary waved and ordered his men, "Guns at the ready!" The sound of bu
Rags to Riches Chapter 157 Join Me in Meeting Him
"That's right!" Brad agreed. Harvey was a renowned gangster in Northfort. The Childe family would only suffer if they got into a misunderstanding with him. So, Howard and the others rushed toward Northford Pinnacle Hotel's construction site. Surprisingly, Harvey and his men weren't obstructing the workers as planned. Instead, the construction was in full swing. Howard and the others didn't even see Harvey anywhere."What the fuck!" Steven couldn't help cursing. "Did Harvey run away with our money?""I doubt it." Brad's expression darkened as he pondered for a second. Then, he voiced, "I'll ask around."He noticed an incoming construction worker who carried bricks with all their might. So, he stopped the worker and asked, "Hey, dude. Let me ask you something."Yet, Brad froze when the worker looked up at him. Standing before him was Harvey, with a safety helmet and a face full of dirt. At that point, Brad's mind went blank. "What are you doing, Harvey?""You guys?" Harvey sne

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 air in the private room was thick with the scent of cold sweat.It took a good ten minutes before Alan finally spoke. "It truly defies my imagination! 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

Chapter 725 To Invite Us for a Simple Dinner
Marcus, too, did not expect that the Colemans who invited him and Vivian to dinner would turn out to be these troublemakers. These guys clearly intended to cause trouble from the looks of it.Marcus glanced around the room and pretended to be puzzled by asking, "Are you planning to go against me?"Alan and the others got goosebumps upon hearing Marcus' question.Their palms were sweating uncontrollably.They were indeed planning to humiliate Marcus.However, they never expected Marcus to be the commander-in-chief!In addition to the Dragon Training Camp incident, Alan and the other four had already attempted to take action against Marcus for the second time. The fact that they had tried to target the commander-in-chief twice in a row made them feel fearful.Alan quickly realized the gravity of the situation.

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. And yet, he was deliberately walking into the lion's den.Although the Colemans held a prestigious position as the top ancient family in Merania, people without a certain status did not qualify to even hear about them.

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!" Alan agreed.Merania's Four Gunlords, Gary, and the Eight Warriors all occupied a place in the Meranian Wolf List.It could be said that the top 100 of the Meranian Wolf List gathered the strongest 100 soldiers in the Meranian military.Being honored on the Meranian Wolf List top 100 was the dream of every Meranian sol
