"Vivian! Shhh! Marcus, that piece of trash, might have heard everything!"Brenda glared at Marcus fiercely."Brenda, he is your brother-in-law! Don't call him a piece of trash!" Vivian angrily reprimanded her. Then, she said caringly, "I'm okay with you streaming. But, the rich man you like doesn't seem reliable!""He is! Do you know? When I was at rock bottom, he gave me 10 thousand dollars. He didn't ask for anything in return. Now, I've texted him, but he hasn't replied to me!"Brenda pouted. She felt sad as she said it."Okay. You're old enough now, Brenda. You can make decisions for yourself! I will support you no matter what!" Vivian said as she looked at Brenda lovingly."Thank you, Vivian! Oh, I have an important streaming event tonight. You need to pick some pretty clothes for me later!"Brenda leaned on Vivian's shoulder coyly."Okay, I'll do my best!"After half an hour, the three of them walked into the entrance of Citrus Hall. "Piece of trash, don't stand too cl
"Marcus, when did you start using Crazy Stream Wave?" Brenda asked while staring at Marcus.Brenda did not suspect anything. After all, one of them was an extravagant rich man while the other was a useless person who leeched others. Both of them had obvious differences between them.Vivian frowned. She looked puzzled as well."Crazy Stream Wave? What's that? I only think the music is nice so I set it as my ringtone."I'm going out to answer the call!"Marcus grabbed his phone in his pants and ran somewhere in a panic. He finally stopped running when he found an empty corner."Vivian, look how panicked Marcus is. I'm sure he is up to no good!" Brenda said condescendingly."Nonsense!" Vivian stopped Brenda immediately. However, she had a complicated expression on her face for some reason. She wondered if the one who called was Wendy. Otherwise, Marcus would not be so nervous."Phew! I forgot to log out of Crazy Wave Stream. That was such a close call!" Marcus sighed and took out
"I forgot to bring my credit card …" Marcus looked apologetically at Vivian and smiled wryly."Fine." There was a hint of disappointment in Vivian's eyes. She wondered if Marcus was only pretending just to feel less embarrassed."If you have no money, just say so. Forgetting your credit card is such a lame excuse! Also, what's wrong with Elizabeth? Aren't you going to chase away troublemakers like them?" Anne was dissatisfied and said loudly to the staff of Elizabeth.“Tsk, I thought he was rich. Turns out, he was just another pretentious loser.""Young people nowadays only care about their reputation and don't think things through!""People need to know when they are poor. How dare they set foot into Elizabeth when they have no money? They are so vain!"Bystanders were pointing and sneering at Marcus, Vivian, and Brenda as they made snide remarks."Vivian! This is all your fault! I told you to leave but you just wouldn't!" Brenda felt so humiliated and lowered her head. It was
Everyone was stunned by what they saw, especially Avery. It was crazy to think that the general manager of Elizabeth, who had a net worth of ten billion dollars was being polite to a young lady like Vivian."Mr. Lake, you must be mistaken. This woman is just a bitch who…" Avery took a deep breath and said cautiously.Before he could finish, his face was slapped so hard that it was swollen immediately."How dare you, Avery! Don't involve me if you want to cause trouble! If you dare be disrespectful to Ms. Lorimer again, I will get someone to cut your tongue off!" Mr. Lake yelled loudly, and his body trembled."Mr. Lake, right? I'm sure you got the wrong person." Vivian gulped."Ms. Lorimer, please don't joke around. You are a distinguished person here. I won't make a mistake. I hope you forgive us if Elizabeth did not meet your standards in any way."Mr. Lake held his breath as he apologized. Then, he remembered something, and his face was full of fear.He remembered clearly th
"What's going on? Is Darling giving up the Most Popular Rookie Queen competition?""It's no surprise. Marianne is just too strong. She has three million online viewers and two million in rewards. Nobody can surpass that!"The pop-up comments section was in chaos. Some sent well-wishes to Brenda, some criticized her, while others reveled in her misfortune.In the blink of an eye, the number of online viewers in Brenda's livestream room plummeted from two hundred thousand to only ten thousand!The sharp decline was still ongoing!"How naive! Doesn't she know that the nerds watching the livestream survive on fantasies? How can she confess in public? What an idiot!"Smirking, Avery lit a cigarette.Then, he opened his phone and sent a message to Marianne. "We've won for sure!""Marcus! What's happened to Brenda? I thought she was really hoping to win the competition."Vivian nervously tugged at Marcus's sleeve inside the villa, her worried expression evident."I don't know ..."
Time flowed bit by bit.Not a single one of the 20 million viewers had left the livestream room. Everyone stared wide-eyed and waited for the mysterious billionaire to bring them the next miracle!Boom!An ear-splitting roar echoed through the livestream room.In the next instant, the room exploded with fireworks. Countless cosmic ships formed the words "I Love You." They bombarded the screen as if they were about to burst through and soar into the sky!"The Otherworldly God, Marcquise Thompson, donated a hundred cosmic ships! How generous of him!"The system notification appeared in every livestream room!"A single cosmic ship costs a million. Wouldn't a hundred cosmic ships cost 100 million dollars?""Oh my goodness, poverty has really limited my imagination!""Darling is so lucky! Girls dream of having such a romantic and extravagant confession!""How could he splurge so effortlessly?"The viewers were so shocked that they couldn't help gasping. Their heads were buzzing.
Marcus racked his brain to construct a sentence. He kept typing and deleting the sentence before sending it."What should I say to comfort Brenda? To mitigate her pain?" he muttered, completely in a dilemma.At this moment, a gentle female voice seeped into his ears. "Marcus, what are you hiding here for? You didn't even watch the livestream with me," Vivian grumbled with gritted teeth.Her breath brushed his ear, giving him shudders. "N-Nothing!"Stiffly, he looked back and flashed a smile at her. It appeared uglier than a crying face.At the same time, he secretly shifted his phone away."Don't move. Give me the phone." She glared at him."Okay." Leaving with no choice, he slowly handed the phone over while he worked his brain.He thought, "What should I do? What should I do? She's gonna throw a fit if she finds out that I'm Marcquise."What if she thinks that I'm interested in Brenda?"She took his phone and scrolled through it for a second before she lost interest in it
As soon as the homepage of Crazy Stream Wave was shown, Brenda looked away and shut her eyes nervously.She asked, "W-What did you see?""Marcus … He really is a mysterious billionaire!" exclaimed Vivian as she widened her eyes."What? That can be!" Brenda snatched the phone. The wave of disappointment upset her.She couldn't accept that her prince charming was the useless Marcus, who was her brother-in-law.Marcus' ID name on Crazy Stream Wave was "Marcus, the Mysterious Billionaire."She blinked her eyes multiple times at that ID name.Vivian burst into laughter at her nervous reaction. "Oh, silly Brenda. I mean his ID name, not Marcquise. Why are you so jumpy?"Vivian was fooling around.Brenda snorted. "I knew it. Victor is such a capable guy. How could he be Marcus? But I have to say that Marcus has peculiar tastes. "Why did he call himself a mysterious man? That sounds cheap."She heaved a sigh as joy blossomed in her.At the same time, Marcus was eavesdropping by th
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
Shye exuded a murderous killing intent. "Yannis, come with me to the Yallops."Starting today, I, Shye Youd, will be stationed at the Yallops' door every day. 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. Shye chased them away before they could even enter the door.After all, Shye was the second-ranked bachelor in the capital, and no one dared to offend him.Just like that, Shye had guarded the Yallops' door for a month.Finally, the Yallops had peace.…Meanwhile, Marcus continued to spend his time with Vivian every day during the month. As for Jill, she was responsible for managing Phisteele Corporation and Tension Incorporated. Jill was a cap
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.
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. You should know that Chief Commander Wall would not send an incapable person or someone from
"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. Despite being invincible in their res
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
