Rags to Riches Chapter 308 Jonathan of the Four Monstrous Generals
Marcus and Elijah exchanged a look. Elijah explained, "Marius called me earlier and said he had something urgent to tell us. That's why I told him to come over."Marcus nodded. He said, "Calm down, Marius. Get up and give me the details.""Thank you, sir!" Marius got to his feet with Damian's help. He looked gloomy as he said, "Cherry, my granddaughter, has been taken hostage by Lucius Childe. He said he was going to feed her to the Ghastly Ghosts."It's all because I didn't choose to side with the Childe family during that bogus banquet he held. That's why he's coming after me like this!""Please, help us, commander-in-chief!" Damian begged. "The Ghastly Ghosts are neither human nor beasts; they're vile creatures. Cherry's doomed now that she's in their hands!"Marius bowed deeply. "It's all thanks to your magnanimity that I've retired from Northfort's business world without any problem. I was planning on moving to the country to live an idyllic life, but that's been ruined by Lu
Rags to Riches Chapter 309 The Devil’s About to Run
Finnegan lay on the ground with blood trickling out of the corner of his mouth. He couldn't stop trembling. He wanted to get to his feet but couldn't muster the strength.The door to the dark room was wide open. There was an air of death inside; there weren't any more roars from the Ghastly Ghosts. There was even a lock flung carelessly on the ground. It was twisted out of shape.Everyone looked stunned. Lucius had a bad feeling about this. He instinctively headed into the dark room, but it was too dark for him to see anything.Howard immediately sidled forward and turned on the flashlight on his phone. Now, everything was illuminated and clear for Lucius to see.The Ghastly Ghosts lay on the floor, as dead as could be. They looked like they'd died horrific deaths, especially since their hearts looked like they'd been gouged out by something sharp. There was blood everywhere.They were also covered in blood. It was obvious from the way they looked now that they'd struggled fiercel
Rags to Riches Chapter 310 Killing Two Birds With One Stone
Lucius' heart jolted when he saw Sebastiana knew his name. "Were you lying in wait for me?""Yep." Oliver crossed his arms lazily. "And we've been waiting for a long time, Mr. Lucius."Thinking of the Ghastly Ghosts' deaths, Lucius asked warily, "Are you two the ones who sneaked into the Childe residence and killed the Ghastly Ghosts?""Nope." Oliver shook his head."That's good, then." Lucius secretly sighed in relief. Then, he said smugly, "There's only two of you, whereas I have more than a dozen men with me. I don't see how you'll win if we get into a fight."Lucius didn't want to get caught up in a fight lest it delay his escape. He intended to scare these two off."My, oh, my. We're so scared of you and your men, Mr. Lucius." Oliver laughed, then said, "What if we add these guys to the count?"At this moment, Elijah and Jonathan appeared before Lucius' eyes. Oliver said leisurely, "Allow me to introduce you to these two. On my left is Elijah Steele, also known as Mr. Steel
Rags to Riches Chapter 311 Maisie Has a Plan
At the Childe residence, the gates were tightly locked, and the atmosphere was tense all around. Even the lightest rattle of the gates was enough to scare the living daylights out of the Childe family."God, when will this end?" Shannon grumbled. "I've already been cooped up inside for seven days. If I'm not let out of here soon, I'm gonna lose my mind!""Stop complaining," Howard said. "You should be glad you're still alive. Count your blessings, Shannon!"Aside from Howard and Shannon, the rest of the Childe family were filled with resentment. They all looked grumpy and restless.As the head of the Childe family, Norman said, "Hold it in, guys. Mr. Lucius was too aggressive this time, which is why so many people were against him. No one dares to offend Prudence County's Childe family, so they're out for our blood."We just need to keep it together for a while longer. Once we're out of this storm, we'll see brighter skies!""That's easier said than done. How long more do we have
Rags to Riches Chapter 312 Will You Pay for All This
At Phisteele Corporation's security department, Marcus hurried over to Shirley with a smile. "Why, hello there, Granny. What brings you here?"In truth, he could just ignore her now that the Childe family had removed Vivian and her family from the Childe family tree. Still, he wanted to see what Shirley was up to."It's been ages since I've seen you, Marcus!" Shirley said enthusiastically. It was the complete opposite of her usual scorn for him. "I've missed you. I knew you worked at Phisteele Corporation, so I came here to visit.""That's so nice of you, Granny." Marcus smiled and poured her a cup of tea. "Here, have some tea. Anyway, you wouldn't come here for no reason. I doubt you just want a little chat."Shirley couldn't help thinking that he wasn't as dumb as she thought. So, she nodded and said, "Yeah, I do have something to talk to you about.""Oh, it's easy enough." Marcus chuckled. "Phisteele Corporation is pretty strict about the age of its new recruits and doesn't hir
Rags to Riches Chapter 313 Ruining a Good Hand
Layla was taken aback when she heard Marcus' words. Then, she giggled and said coyly, "You're such a meanie, Mr. Handsome! When a guy invites a woman out for a date, it's only natural for the guy to foot the bill!"Him, foot the bill? Marcus couldn't help feeling amused. Though everything that Layla had ordered would bring the bill to several thousand dollars, it meant nothing to Marcus.But to a man from an average family, this would be a terrible burden. The scariest thing about this was that most people felt it was normal for the guy to foot the bill.Thanks to the content on social media, many people had misguided notions about feminism and thought it was about women pampering themselves while men sacrificed everything they had for their partners. It would only be true love if the man was willing to give up everything he had for his significant other.Otherwise, he would be categorized as a scumbag. The woman herself probably only earned a few thousand dollars a month but expec
Rags to Riches Chapter 314 A Television Interview
Marcus went to the vice president's office. When he entered the room, he said teasingly, "You wanted to see me, Ms. Black? Don't tell me you wanna convince me to divorce Vivian again.""Oh, shush." Jill pouted. "This is serious business. Phisteele Corporation's reputation in Northfort is flawless now, and it's become one of the pillars of Northfort's economy. The media outlets love us."Northfort Television wants to have an exclusive interview with us, but I'm going on a business trip soon. That's why I thought of you.""You want me to do the interview?" Marcus was surprised. Logically speaking, this interview would mean a lot to Jill, and she would want to personally attend it. At worst, she would have a senior executive deal with it. Why was she getting him, the head of the security department, involved?Unbeknownst to Marcus, Jill had an ulterior motive for this. Ever since the matter with the acquisition of the plant, Jill's impression of Marcus had improved a lot. She felt tha
Rags to Riches Chapter 315 Clarissa Hoffman
Soon, Marcus arrived at the reception room. He was surprised to see Clarissa. "You're the reporter handling today's interview?""What's wrong?" Clarissa narrowed her eyes, then smirked. "Are you surprised?""Yes, and not pleasantly so," Marcus said. "I thought you would've quit your job at Northfort Television after the incident back then. It's a surprise to see you're still here.""Oh, yes." Clarissa nodded. "Not only am I still here, but I'm also one of the TV station's best reporters!""You, a good reporter?" Marcus looked scornful. "You're shameless, Clarissa.""Hey, hey, hey!" When Declan heard the conversation start to go wrong, he quickly stood up for Clarissa. He glared at Marcus. "You shouldn't throw words around and slander others.""She knows best whether or not I'm slandering her," Marcus sneered.Back when Morpheus Corporation was in its heyday, Northfort Television had also extended an invitation to Marcus to interview him.Anyone would've expected Northfort Telev

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

Marcus and Vivian left.Alan and the others slumped in their seats and panted heavily. Alan's back was soaked in sweat.The others weren't faring much better. 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

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. His head shook mechanically, and he hastily said, "No… No! The five of us just wanted to invite you and Mrs. Coleman to have a simple dinner!"Zakir even took the initi

After Alan hung up, Vivian went to talk to Marcus about what had just happened.Vivian said with a concerned look, "Marcus, I believe the Colemans don't have good intentions. 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. 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. While pregnant, Vivian learned about the Colemans.She began to understand their formidable reputation, especially after learning about their glorious history.Thus, Vivian couldn't help but sigh at the lo

I will beat anyone who dares to propose to Yolia to death."Yannis nodded and asked, "Understood, Mr. Youd. What about that bastard?"Shye grunted and said, "A man's revenge is never too late. Compared to Yolia, what does that bastard amount to?"Let's let him live for a while!"Since Shye started guarding the Yallops' door, the number of people coming to propose decreased.

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. Any technique he imparted to them was bound to lead to significant progress, even if it was the most basic one.Following that, Marcus began to teach them the special art of breathing.

Chapter 721 Their Instructor Is the Commander-in-Chief
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
