Rags to Riches Chapter 398 The Gathering of the County's Bigwigs
The commander had a bad temper and retorted, "Who do you think you are?"I've been around for countless years, and I've never encountered such a cocky young brat!""Well, now you have!" Eugene snorted and remained proud. "You local bumpkins from this province should consider it an honor to give up this room to me!""What if we don't?" the commander challenged."Hmm?" Eugene instructed Sid, "Sid, go get Dax. I ain't holding back on him, no matter what!""Sure thing." Sid scurried away and soon brought Dax back with him.Seeing Eugene and his group picking a fight with Marcus and demanding that they vacate cabin 888 made Dax turn pale with fear—especially when Eugene proposed that Marcus and his group should give up cabin 888."Mr. Byrne Junior, does this arrangement work for you?" Dax couldn't afford to agree with Eugene and tried to find a compromise. "I'll cover the expenses for all of you tonight. How about that?"Eugene snorted in frustration."Fuck you!" Sid understood the
Rags to Riches Chapter 399 Who Dares Force Brenda
In order to prevent Brenda from escaping, the Lorimer family even kept her under confinement and didn't allow her to return to Cromford University. In the eyes of the Lorimers, marrying Brenda to Eugene and forming an alliance with the Byrne family from the Easton was more important than anything else.…Brenda made another attempt to escape by climbing out of the window but was apprehended by the Lorimers."Why do you want me to marry Eugene?" Frustrated, Brenda said, "I don't like that spoiled rich brat from the Easton at all!""How outrageous!" Nora immediately became furious. "He is the son of my former leader, not just some spoiled rich brat! Our family's success is thanks to the support we got from my former leader. Marrying his son is a privilege to you!""But I don't like him at all." Brenda shook her head."Brenda, you have to accept your fate." Faye tried to persuade her at this moment. "A prestigious family like the Byrnes from Easton is coming to Northfort! You can'
Rags to Riches Chapter 400 The Ivory Stallions
Compared to the Byrne family, the Lorimer family was simply no match. At this critical juncture, Brenda had been taken away by Marcus. With the Byrne family coming, the Lorimers would face a difficult situation explaining this turn of events."The Byrne family is coming to propose marriage?"Upon hearing this news, the Lorimer family fell into a panic.On the other hand, after calling Nora, Patrick looked at his son Eugene and said with a smile, "Eugene, I have already informed the Lorimer family. You should go and make the marriage proposal today."Dress up nicely and head over to their residence.""You want me to go to the Lorimer family's residence?" Eugene was taken aback. Thinking about the horrifying and bloody scene at the Classico Club yesterday, Eugene was very wary of Marcus. Could someone with Marcus's status be underestimated?Marcus was Brenda's brother-in-law, so if he went to the Lorimer family's residence himself, wouldn't he be walking into a trap?"Well,
Rags to Riches Chapter 401 The Savage Legion
This request was highly insulting.Since the Lorimer family was a prominent household in Cromford, if they all knelt to the Byrne family, even if the marriage alliance succeeded, their reputation outside would be tarnished.However, with Patrick's anger raging, the Lorimers had no choice."Kneel!" Seeing the hesitation among the Lorimer family members, Nora barked out an order.Luke and Faye's legs went weak, and they knelt down with a thud. With these two leading the way, the rest of the Lorimer family members followed.Seeing Nora still standing, Patrick gave her a cold sidelong glance. "You too!"Nora's face turned red, and her lips twitched. She wanted to say something but ultimately swallowed her words.As she was about to kneel, a loud voice came from outside, "You can't kneel!"The newcomer was Marcus, accompanied by Brenda and Emily."Grandma, at your age, don't you find it shameful kneeling to someone much younger?" Marcus asked.Nora blushed upon hearing his words
Rags to Riches Chapter 402 Lorimers Surrounded by the Ivory Stallions
The next day, Brenda was still concerned about the Lorimer family. She persuaded Emily to return to the Lorimer residence together. Marcus did not stop them, as he was confident that nobody could harm Brenda with him around.When Brenda and Emily arrived at the Lorimer residence, they found Felix and Josiah, the two brothers, trying to curry favor with Nora."Madam Nora, please rest assured. The Hendrix family in Easton still has some connections. As long as we intervene, we will surely help your family in stopping the Byrne family," Felix assured her earnestly."Yes!" Josiah shamelessly looked at Faye.Nora understood their intentions but smiled and said, "As long as you can help us through this crisis, I promise to grant your wishes!"The two brothers exchanged knowing glances and smiled back."Brenda? You still have the guts to come back?" Luke saw Brenda and Emily and exclaimed, "Seize her and have her apologize to the Byrne family later!""Wait!" Nora interrupted. "The By
Rags to Riches Chapter 403 Taking Credit
Under the attack of the fearsome soldiers of the Savage Legion, the Ivory Stallions were left dumbfounded. Many of their horses were frightened, causing some of the riders to fall to the ground, creating an awkward scene."Attention!" A voice rang out from the Savage Legion.One thousand soldiers promptly put away their guns and formed two columns to create a pathway. Denzel walked out."Greetings, officer!" Seeing the officer with a star on his shoulder, Eugene greeted him with a friendly smile. "Apologies for the disturbance, but it's just a private dispute among us civilians.""What's going on here?" Denzel shot a sidelong glance at Patrick, his tone laced with sarcasm. "With this large crowd, I presume you're not here to host a friendly gathering, are you?""No, no, no!" Patrick hastily shook his head. "Officer, it's just a personal conflict that needs to be resolved.""Personal conflict with the need for warhorses?" Denzel sneered. "You are not a military unit, yet you k

"Alright!" Nora finally spoke. "Stop arguing, all of you!""What do you think the military is? You snap your fingers, and they come running; snap them again, and they'll disappear?"Put an end to this stupid argument!""Yes!" Felix quickly agreed. "Madam Nora is right."They narrowly avoided exposing themselves.Thank goodness for Nora!Felix and Josiah exchanged glances and wore triumphant smiles."The Hendrix brothers saved our family, and naturally, I won't go back on my word. I'll do what I promised," Nora continued. "Some time ago, you brothers came to propose a marriage.""However, you were rejected by Faye."This time, I've decided to betroth Faye to Felix.""Thank you, Madam Nora!" Felix beamed. "Madam Nora, my brother and I hope you won't treat us unfairly.""Yes!" Josiah had been eyeing Brenda with a sly expression. "She's not bad either.""I won't marry you!" Brenda immediately refused."She'll do as well." Josiah pointed at Emily."You're dreaming!" Emily reto
Rags to Riches Chapter 405 Got Divorced
The purpose of the comprehensive examination was to avoid arousing the suspicions of Vivian. Vivian was unaware that the main objective of this examination was to determine whether she was pregnant.After approximately an hour, the test results were ready.Upon learning that Vivian was not pregnant, Luke's lips curled slightly, and he said with a smile, "Alright, Vivian, you can go in and visit Grandma now!"Both Luke and Nora played their roles thoroughly. They even arranged for Nora to stay in a hospital room, using their established connections within the hospital. After all, Grandma was elderly, and her frail health could justify such a precautionary measure."Grandma, are you feeling unwell?" Vivian asked with concern as she entered the hospital room and saw Nora in a patient's gown."I'm fine," she replied. "It's just a common cold. But Luke insisted on having me admitted, saying that I'm getting old and even minor illnesses should be taken seriously.""I think Luke did

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.

"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.

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.

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?
