Rags to Riches Chapter 471 The Deception of the Lorimers
While the investment bidding conference proceeded, a gloomy atmosphere hung over the Lorimer family. Just before the conference began, the provincial government issued a major announcement declaring the Prudence County Trading Association an illegal private organization and shutting it down.Nora collapsed immediately hearing this. The Prudence County Trading Association had been the Lorimer family's greatest hope to secure a spot in the investment bidding conference. They even bribed them with 10 million.Now that the Prudence County Trading Association was disbanded, the Lorimer family not only lost its chance to participate in the conference but they also forfeited the 10 million they had paid.Watching various businesses secure satisfactory investment projects at the conference, the Lorimers were left empty-handed.Nora couldn't help but let out a frustrated sigh. "A total of five trillion!" She banged her cane on the ground, her voice trembling. "Yet our family didn't get
Rags to Riches Chapter 472 Groupthink Can Make Anything Seem True
When Faye raised this question, everyone present was silent. As the head of the family, a tarnished reputation could be detrimental to the Lorimer family."What's the big deal?" Nora responded with a disdainful expression, saying, "This investment opportunity comes once in a lifetime. If we succeed, the Lorimer family will ascend to the ranks of top-tier wealthy families in no time."I must seize this rare opportunity with all my might."As for my reputation, what does it matter compared to the future development of the Lorimer family?"With these words, Nora received immediate respect from everyone present."For the sake of the growth of the Lorimer family, Grandma displays such a noble attitude, setting an example for us all," Luke said. "There are 50 to 60 of us here. Even if Vivian questions us about the revised documents and contracts, we can all speak with one voice, insisting they were always this way. With this, Vivian will have nothing to say!""Luke, your plan is tr
Rags to Riches Chapter 473 What Kind of Clowns Are You
After ending the call with Vivian, Marcus thought momentarily and decided to go home first. Vivian's mood seemed a bit off.When he arrived home, he found Vivian in the kitchen, looking flustered. As a pampered young lady born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Vivian had received a top-tier education and had never set foot in the kitchen before. She had no idea how to cook.Seeing Vivian turning herself into a mess, Marcus couldn't help but laugh.She was attempting to clean a fish. Then, she was startled when the fish slipped off the cutting board into the sink.Marcus couldn't help but chuckle. He said, "Vivian, that's not how you do it."He walked up behind her and took the fish out of the sink. Then, he took her hand and patiently instructed her to prepare the fish.With Marcus' assistance, Vivian finally managed to prepare the fish and felt relieved and happy.However, she suddenly remembered something unpleasant, and her nose tingled. She turned around and buried her fac
Rags to Riches Chapter 474 Suppressing the Lorimers
"Marcus, your rampage here is unforgivable!" Nora spoke with a malicious tone. "Today, I must punish you severely so that you won't think our family is easy to bully!""What do you intend to do to me?" Marcus raised an eyebrow."I'll break your legs, and you'll spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair," Nora said with a menacing expression. "Don't worry. We can take care of you for the rest of your life.""What?" Vivian's face turned pale upon hearing Nora's words. She was clearly planning to take drastic action.She exclaimed, "Grandma, you can't do this to Marcus!"Marcus, on the other hand, remained unfazed. He placed Vivian behind him and smiled. "Vivian, there's no need to argue with her. These people are no match for me. They don't deserve our attention.""He's too arrogant!" Nora was furious. She shouted, "Go! Break his legs!"Luke and Faye wore confident smiles. In their eyes, these elite thugs were the best that they had to offer, and Marcus was clearly no match for
Rags to Riches Chapter 475 Chief Commander Wall
"How satisfying!"After leaving the Lorimer residence, Vivian felt highly relieved. Due to her personality and the fact that they were close relatives, Vivian had always been accommodating and patient when it came to the Lorimer family and the Childe family. They repeatedly took advantage of her, thinking she was an easy target.However, today was her first time dealing with the Lorimers so firmly. She had finally vented her anger.Even the usually arrogant Nora had actually yielded to Marcus and returned the ten-billion-dollar investment project to her."Honey, you were amazing just now!" Vivian danced with excitement and then expressed some concern. "But, you broke both Josiah and Felix's arms and legs. Won't that cause us trouble?""Trouble?" Marcus sneered. "Those two had it coming—especially Felix! That kid wanted to slap me in front of Nora to show off. I already went easy with him; I only broke his limbs.""What?" Vivian hadn't expected Marcus to be so ruthless, but she co
Rags to Riches Chapter 476 The Star in the Celo Family
Although Zedekiah claimed to be returning home to recover from his injuries, it was merely a ruse to deceive the enemy. In reality, he was perfectly fine. To avoid arousing suspicion, no representatives from the local military command were sent to meet him upon his arrival. Instead, those who came to welcome Zedekiah were mostly upper-class families of the province, along with many civilians who admired him.As the cabin door opened, Roman's excitement reached its peak. He was about to meet the famous war hero, Zedekiah, who was every bit as renowned as Merania's Four Monstrous Generals under the commander-in-chief. The power and influence of the Celo family were about to rise to a new level.Amidst the eager anticipation of the crowd, Zedekiah, dressed in plain white attire, descended the walkway. Roman immediately stepped forward to welcome him. With great excitement, he shook Zedekiah's hand and said, "Chief Commander Wall, ever since you announced your intentions to recover f
Rags to Riches Chapter 477 Statue of Commander-In-Chief
"Yes!" The rest of the Celo family members cheered one after another. Roman had thought of something and said to Zedekiah, "Chief Commander Wall, I plan to wait for Zeno to return and directly appoint him as the successor of our family. What do you think?"Seeing Roman having the idea of appointing Zeno as the family heir, the other members of the Celo family had nothing to say. After all, in the eyes of the Celos, Zeno was the right-hand man of the Commander-in-Chief. No one in the family had the qualifications to compete with him, not even Xavion."Hehe! Mr. Celo Senior, this is your family matter. I am an outsider, and it is not appropriate for me to express an opinion," Zedekiah replied politely. "You can decide on your own."However, Zedekiah's words which seemed to evade the question made Roman think that he was supportive of his decision. He immediately announced loudly, "Today, in front of Chief Commander Wall, I officially declare that Zeno is appointed as the success
Rags to Riches Chapter 478 He Is The Commander-In-Chief
"Chief Commander Wall, if you like, we can also build a statue of you and place it at the center of the Prudence County square," Roman said with a delighted expression. His demeanor seemed to say, "Chief Commander Wall, I did a good job, didn't I? Please, praise me!""Hehe, I don't think I deserve one," Zedekiah shook his head and replied. "Comparing me to the commander-in-chief would be an insult to him."Despite Zedekiah's significant military achievements, he felt he still fell short of being compared to Marcus.He walked around the statue and finally tilted his head, looking at the statue's head with a slightly displeased expression. Seeing this, Roman became nervous and asked, "Chief Commander Wall, is something wrong with this statue?"If Zedekiah was not satisfied, it was clear that the statue was awful. After all, Zedekiah was one of the closest people to the commander-in-chief."The problem is quite significant," Zedekiah looked at Roman and said, "Mr. Celo Senior, was

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

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.

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.

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.

"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.

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
