Rags to Riches Chapter 234 The Opportunist
Bartemius guessed Damon's intentions.When Terry and Harvey were the twin bosses of Northfort's underworld, Damon had always been suppressed.Now that Terry and Harvey were both killed in a fight, Damon quickly acquired Northfort's underworld territory and became the boss.Even so, Damon still could not make his own decisions as he had always been suppressed by Bartemius.Although Bartemius had been retired for many years, most of Northfort's underworld territory was closely related to him. So, Bartemius was still controlling the underworld's order from the back.Bartemius did not have high hopes about Damon becoming the boss at first.

Rags to Riches Chapter 235 Inspection Trouble
"Cherry, your analysis is right." Marius nodded and said, "That kid must have taken advantage of someone to get into Phisteele Corporation and got close to Elijah. That was how he got the chance to welcome Father Johnny and gain the respect of Elijah."With an important figure like Father Johnny to support him, it's totally reasonable for the kid to contact the Northfort military region and ask them to send an army over."By doing that, Marcus could get more trust from Elijah by talking about how great he was. Then, he would seek greater benefits for himself.""Grandpa, I've told you before. This guy is cunning and full of tricks. Accidentally saving you during your first meeting might also be a part of his plan!" Cherry said."Indeed." The more Marius thought about it, the more he believed Cherry. "Thankfully, you are smart and realized this kid's schemes. Otherwise, this kid will only spell trouble for us."Meanwhile, at the Forme Corporation, there was chaos."Damn it!" Oc
Rags to Riches Chapter 236 Just a Drinking Invitation
Since coming to Northfort and becoming the vice president of the Childe group, the Northfort Pinnacle Hotel project had been Vivian's priority. She checked everything from construction materials to workmanship in order to build a project of the best quality.Right now, the two men from the inspection team just decided the project would fail the inspection without even reading the documents Vivian provided.Vivian was shocked and asked, "Mr. Ford, can you tell me why our project would fail the inspection?" "Why?" Andrew asked coldly. "It's simple. The building quality won't pass the inspection.""That's right." Jim, who was beside Andrew, agreed. "If we approve a jerry-built project like this, the residents will be the ones in danger. When something happens, we will get scolded. We must be responsible for the safety of the people.""How is this a jerry-built project?" Vivian was aggrieved. She put all his effort into the building's construction. She bought expensive materials ju
Rags to Riches Chapter 237 We Are in Charge of the Quality Supervision Bureau
After hearing what the governor said and looking at the inspection certificate approved by military engineers, Pierre was shocked. His inspection team actually failed a project approved by military engineers.Although Pierre did not know how Marcus was involved in the Northfort Pinnacle Hotel project, he knew Vivian, the Childe Group vice president who was in charge of it must be someone important to Marcus."Vivian is my wife," Marcus seemed to learn Pierre's doubts and said directly."What? She's your wife!" Pierre was terrified. He scolded the two men from the inspection team secretly for screwing up the commander-in-chief's wife's project."If there's a problem with Northfort Pinnacle Hotel's quality, I have nothing to say if the inspection team asked me to rebuild it. To verify the project's quality, I went to the military regions and invited a few of the best military engineers in Merania. After their inspection, they unanimously decided that the project complies with regulat
Rags to Riches Chapter 238 Good News Bad News
"Good news! Good news!"Howard shouted happily as soon as he stepped inside the Childe residence. Everyone gathered around Howard to see what it was all about."Howard, what is it? Why do you look so happy?" Brad was confused.Howard chuckled and said, "I just received the news that Northfort Pinnacle Hotel did not pass the inspection by the Quality Supervision Bureau! Vivian is going to beg the guys at the bureau now.Everyone looked at each other when they heard Howard's news."How is that good news?" Shirley asked with a frown.Although Vivian was appointed by Ninepoint Corporation to handle the Northfort Pinnacle Hotel project, the project was still under Childe Group's name. Failing the inspection was not a good thing for Childe Group. Shirley thought about that immediately."Let me finish," Howard grinned and said. "Think about it, if Northfort Pinnacle Hotel failed its inspection and the project was managed by Vivian, can't we make the news blow up?""Howard, are you say
Rags to Riches Chapter 239 This Trick
Brad was the first to snap to his senses after hearing Howard's words. He smirked and asked, "Say, Vivian, what good news have you brought for us?""Well, Uncle Brad—""Wait!" Before Vivian could finish speaking, Matilda spoke with a teasing look. "Don't say anything, Vivian. Let me guess. You're about to tell us that Northfort Pinnacle Hotel has officially passed its inspection. It got approved. Right?""Huh?" Vivian was in shock. "You knew, Aunt Matilda?""Of course I did. I'm not the only one, too. Everyone knows." Matilda flashed the former a smug grin."That's great! I'm glad everyone knows—" Vivianw was overjoyed. She wanted to continue speaking but got cut short by Yvette."That's enough!" Yvette let out a frosty chuckle while her features twisted with disdain. "How much longer will you keep up this act?""Act?" Vivian was confused. "I don't understand what you're getting at, Aunt Yvette."That was when Norman spoke up. "We know how much you've sacrificed for the Northfo
Rags to Riches Chapter 240 Socialites Sharing a Bill
Nobody knew what was happening. The Childe family didn't understand why Pierre seemed afraid of Marcus. They frowned at each other.Meanwhile, Marcus glanced at Pierre before nodding. "You arrived two minutes earlier than I expected. Good. You're not late."Only then did Pierre heave a sigh of relief. When Marcus phoned him, he immediately contacted his friends in public transportation management. Pierre asked his friends to clear the traffic. That way, he could arrive at the Childe residence within five minutes. Otherwise, Pierre wouldn't have been on time. One would be courting death if they dared to be late to meet Marcus, the ultimate powerhouse in society."It's great that you're here, Mr. Hinman! I was about to report something to you!" Howard hadn't realized the situation, so he acted against Marcus. "Our company's vice president, Vivian, and her husband falsified an approval document! "It even has a forged signature of yours! See? It's illegal. As a citizen of Merania
Rags to Riches Chapter 241 Wedding of the Century
"You're clearly too poor to afford high-quality counterfeits. Yet, you're out here acting like an upper-class socialite. I can't believe you've made people believe you're rich by posting fancy pictures online!" Marcus scoffed. Then, he continued, "You're sharing the bill for a grand afternoon tea? Gosh. Now, I've seen everything. Wait; I just remembered something. What about those so-called celebs from Easton that pay 10 thousand dollars to stay in hotels' presidential suits for a night? Do they also share the bill like you guys?""What nonsense are you spouting, you penniless loser?" Sabrina huffed. Her contempt for Marcus worsened when she saw how average he looked. In truth, she had observed the table of food for some time. She watched as Jill ordered some food for the table before the latter headed to the washroom. Sabrina knew most girls took a while to use the toilet. So, she devised a plan to act like she had ordered the food. Then, Sabrina texted her fake socialite frien

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

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.

"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.
