Marcus' statement basically determined Sylvester's future in Merania.

The latter had spent many years in Merania. All of his profits were from business transactions with local companies.

Once Sylvester left Merania, his source of income would be gone, too.

However, he could only accept such a fate. After all, Sylvester could not afford to offend anyone in the room.

Dawson immediately nodded and answered, "I understand! Don't worry, Mr. Coleman. You won't see Sylvester in Easton or anywhere in Merania from today onward.

"Not only that, Easton Sun Corporation and all its related industries will also disappear!"

"That's good." Marcus was extremely satisfied.

"Furthermore, on behalf of nearly a hundred prominent family leaders, I'd like to express our stance," Dawson continued. "Whenever we see anyone like Sylvester, we'll drive them away immediately.

"We'll never tolerate any foreigners who think they're superior to Meranians!"

The other heads of wealthy families echoed, "We

    Roman had made an astonishing discovery. He could not believe that with the Celo family of Easton's power, he failed to find out who the secret boss was. Not only that, but he could not even get the person in charge, Elijah's personal number. The only thing they found out was Jill's information, at best. "We'll settle for the vice president, then," Roman uttered. He realized tracking down the secret boss or even Elijah was hard. Meanwhile, Jill was the one overseeing the day-to-day operations. And so, Roman called Jill. After introducing himself, he recounted Marcus' visit to Easton for debt collection while adding unnecessary drama. "So, Marcus relied on the Celo family of Easton. That's why he had successfully gotten the money," Jill mumbled. The finance department had called her earlier. They informed Jill that the 99 billion dollars Easton Sun Corporation owed had been transferred to their account.Upon hearing the news, she was delighted and even held Marcus in a

    With that, Marcus hung up.On the other end of the line, the infuriated Zenny yelled, "What? How dare the loser hang up on me? "He's driving me crazy!"Roman, beside Zenny, had long noticed it. The latter commented, "He's indeed arrogant."Zenny, keep a close eye on the every move of that loser. Looks like he's addicted to using the Celo family's name. We must take countermeasures!"Zenny promptly answered, "Yes, Mr. Celo Senior!"…Marcus had just hung up on Zenny when Elijah called. So, using the excuse of going for his rounds, Marcus headed to the president's office, where Elijah was."Congratulations, Marcus!" Elijah exclaimed with a grin. He continued, "Phisteele Corporation's market value has surpassed 100 billion dollars. It's now the leading company in the capital. "I believe in no time, we'll become the key industry player of the capital!""Yeah," Marcus responded while nodding. "That's why I took this opportunity to organize the gala. "I want all of the empl

    What Marcus had said was the truth. On the surface, the Phisteele Corporation Gala was to celebrate their market value surpassing 100 billion dollars. However, in actuality, it was to let the secret boss, Marcus, make an appearance. The event would become meaningless if the main character did not attend the gala. Nevertheless, Jill was unaware of all this. Hence, she thought Marcus was merely boasting. After all, he was close with the secret boss. So, Jill thought it was only natural that he would jump on the opportunity to show off his capabilities. Jill waved her hand and said, "Okay! I know you're impressive. I also know you're on good terms with the secret boss. "I just don't understand why he would hold a head of security in such high regard!""That's because I'm uniquely charming!" Marcus answered with a grin. Jill sneered in response. "Is that so? Why didn't I notice it?"Oh, by the way, I called you over to discuss something important."After all that bantering

    So, Vivian rushed back to the Lorimer residence in Cromford. "Grandma, what's the matter?" Vivian asked anxiously.Upon entering the house, she noticed Nora, Luke, Faye, and the others were all present. "Yes, something major has happened," Luke answered. He continued, "Vivian, do you know that a significant matter had occurred recently? Phisteele Corporation is holding a gala to celebrate their market value surpassing 100 billion dollars."Vivian wore a confused expression. "I've heard about it. But what does it have to do with us?""Of course, it has something to do with us!" Nora exclaimed, tapping the ground hard with her cane. With a stern expression, she questioned, "Are you not seeing the bigger picture here? You must quickly think of a way to get an invitation to Phisteele Corporation's gala!"Even though Vivian had gotten an invitation from Jill, the former did not tell them about it. She wanted to know why the Lorimers insisted that she attend the gala."Phisteele

    Marcus always respected the local customs and traditions of each place.Moreover, if conflicts arose due to cultural differences, it would also bring flaws to this gala.Marcus hoped that every employee could participate in this gala happily.After being around Clandaiya for a week, Marcus decided to find Elijah to plan the upcoming events.…"Seriously?"In a room, Jill complained, "We've been stuck in the room as soon as we arrived. It's so boring!"Jill was naturally adventurous and wanted to explore every new place she visited."Hey, don't complain." Vivian, who was in the same room as Jill, smiled and said, "Marcus is doing it for our safety. We should stay in the room and wait for the arrangements.""No, no." Jill shook her head. "I can't stand it! Besides, I'm the vice president and in charge of overseeing this gala. How can the head of security give me orders?"Vivian, come out with me for some fresh air.""Can we do that?" Vivian was being all obedient."Hey!" Jill

    Marcus' strict security requirements for employees were entirely justified.The Clandaiyan locals were indeed too audacious.Upon hearing that Phisteele Corporation employees were being detained, Jill became anxious and said, "Quick, take me there.""Alright, Ms. Black." The security guard nodded repeatedly and hurriedly led Jill away.Without a word, Marcus followed.Guided by the security guard, Jill arrived at the edge of Clandaiya.At this moment, several Phisteele Corporation security guards were confronting several burly local residents.These residents were tall, muscular, and looked fierce.It was especially so for the central figure who was shirtless, displaying bulging muscles."What's going on?" Jill asked urgently upon seeing the situation."Ms. Black, they're causing trouble for us!" As soon as they saw Jill, the security guards, who were in a standoff with several locals, immediately seemed to find their support."That's right! They also detained some of our em

    "Are you refusing me?" Fallon sneered, showing a contemptuous expression. "In Clandaiya, no one has ever dared to refuse me.""Hahaha!" Before Jill could speak, laughter erupted from the crowd.Marcus stepped forward, his sharp eyes fixed on Fallon. "Just because you're acting recklessly in Clandaiya, do you think you're the law?""Hey! You're right. In Clandaiya, I, Fallon Williams, am the law. I speak, and it's final. My words are like royal decrees. I'm the king of this land."Fallon arrogantly declared. "I've said it before. No one dares to defy my words.""Is that so?" Marcus glanced at Fallon with disdain. He leisurely reached into his pocket and pulled out a pack of cigars. He then lit one and took a drag, blowing a smoke ring toward Fallon.Although Fallon was bulky, standing next to Marcus, he seemed dwarfed.Marcus' condescending attitude made Fallon feel humiliated."How dare you disrespect me?" Furious, Fallon grabbed the cigar from Marcus' mouth and angrily tossed

    Since Fallon had been defeated, the other citizens of Clandaiya immediately removed their weapons and raised their hands in surrender. They obediently squatted near a wall. "Officers, please don't shoot us. We surrender!"Meanwhile, Fallon was trembling in fear. He wasn't arrogant like before. Just then, a group of armed soldiers jumped down from a helicopter. After landing on the ground, they immediately restrained Fallon and the other citizens. Although Fallon was the citizens' leader, he was just a small power in Clandaiya. Moreover, many citizens in the country were fierce but didn't misbehave like him. Soon after, the soldiers captured Fallon and his subordinates. Since he was arrested, the travel company in Clandaiya bought fireworks to celebrate. Many fishermen were also very ecstatic. Meanwhile, those who suffered under Fallon's rule felt liberated. In the meantime, an employee from the travel company that was in charge of Phisteele Corporation's business r

    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

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

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.

    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.

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.

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.

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
