Rags to Riches Chapter 623 The Engagement
"We acquired the 100 billion dollar project?" Vivian was in disbelief. After all, both of them couldn't make it to the auction. "Yes." Jill nodded. "Though we couldn't make it, Phisteele Corporation's secret boss rushed over. Therefore, we could obtain the 100 billion dollar project. Moreover, he called to inform me to hand the project to you.""So, that's what happened." Vivian was extremely happy. However, she was a little confused. "Jill, who's Phisteele Corporation's secret boss? I think he's very capable and he keeps trying to help me. Why is that so?"Suddenly, she remembered that the Lorimers told her Phisteele Corporation's secret boss was interested in her. However, Vivian had already made up her mind. Even if Phisteele Corporation's secret boss threatened her, she wouldn't agree to his advances. That was because she only loved Marcus.Meanwhile, Jill thought, "Why? That's because you're the wife of Phisteele Corporation's secret boss!"Yet, she had already promised
Rags to Riches Chapter 624 Interrogation From the Childes and the Lorimers
"It's an important issue, yet everyone knows about this apart from us. What is Vivian trying to do?" Nora huffed angrily. "Are we that unimportant to her?""Grandma, I think Vivian doesn't view herself as our family member." Meanwhile, Faye pouted beside her. "Although she's getting married, we didn't know anything about it."Nora paused and then asked Luke, "Did you know about this?""What are you saying, Grandma?" Luke shook his head. "You didn't even know about this. I'm the younger generation of the family, and am not on good terms with her. How would I know that?"Nora scoffed coldly. After thinking about it, she said, "I'll call the Childes in Northfort to ask them about this."She called Norman and Shirley. The other parties were confused as well. "What?" Norman said in bewilderment. "My granddaughter is getting married but I didn't know about it?""I'll ask around then." Nora picked up the phone again and called Lincoln and Lisa. "Your daughter is getting married on
Rags to Riches Chapter 625 Change Your Last Name if You Want to Marry Vivian
"I'm pregnant!"Vivian's words hit them like a bomb, causing ripples on the calm surface. Nora, Norman, Shirley, and the others all appeared shocked. On the other hand, Lincoln and Lisa exchanged glances. "I'm pregnant with Marcus' child. Now, none of you can stop us from getting married," Vivian added.Lincoln could not help but sigh. "This is a disaster! Why do I have such a shameless daughter like you?""Vivian, are you trying to force your way into getting what you want?" Lisa accused. She continued, "You sure know how to play your cards, huh? Take action and sort things out later. Did Marcus teach you this?""Mom, don't make baseless accusations," Vivian retorted. "Marcus and I are truly in love. Even if I wasn't pregnant, no one could stop us from getting married. Moreover, we're expecting our little one!"Members of the Lorimers in Cromford and the Childe family in Northfort could only shake their heads helplessly. Since Vivian was already pregnant, they could d
Rags to Riches Chapter 626 An Admirable Presence
Everyone looked at Marcus with anticipation.They had to admit that Lincoln's conditions were favorable to the Lorimers. Marcus would have no status in the family if he agreed to them. Then, Vivian would remain in control. Nevertheless, if Marcus objected, they could easily reject their marriage. So what if Vivian was already pregnant? It was not a problem for the Lorimers. After all, they could take care of the child."Marcus, just give us an answer already," Nora urged. Even Vivian gazed at Marcus with anticipation. Deep down, she hoped he would agree to all the audacious demands. It was not that she was inconsiderate to his feelings. Instead, Vivian believed that refusing outright would surely spark strong opposition from the Lorimers and the Childes. That would only worsen the situation. For now, Marcus should agree to the requests and proceed with the wedding. By then, with Vivian's status and the arrival of their child, Marcus could just ignore Lincoln's extreme con
Rags to Riches Chapter 627 The Pregnancy Scandal
After leaving the Lorimer residence, Vivian asked, "Marcus, is what you just said about the surprise of the century true?"She had a feeling that Marcus had deliberately said it to deal with the Lorimers and the Childes. She reckoned he should tell the truth now that it was just them. Nevertheless, Marcus remained confident as he replied, "Of course, it's true! I've long planned for it."At the wedding of the century, I want you to be in the center of the spotlight. I'll make sure everyone is jealous of you because you're my wife!"Observing Marcus' confident demeanor, Vivian nodded repeatedly. "Okay!"In the following days, Vivian got busy. During the day, she was occupied with the progress of the 100 billion-dollar project and wedding preparations. At night, she and Marcus shared moments of passion. To add some spice, they even checked into a hotel. In actuality, Vivian was not pregnant. She had said so just to convince the Lorimers and the Childes. With everything beco

Rags to Riches Chapter 629 A Set Up
After Vivian, Jill, and Cassidy entered the apartment, Vivian's phone rang. It was Callum calling."Hello, Ms. Lorimer, where are you?"Vivian asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Page? I'm not at the office now.""But I have an urgent document that requires your signature. Without it, I'm afraid it'll affect the progress of the 100 billion-dollar project."On the other end of the line, Callum sounded anxious. Vivian hesitated for a moment. Ultimately, she gave him her current location, saying, "Mr. Page, come find me here."Oh, by the way, remember to keep a low profile when you come."Looking at the location Vivian sent, Callum realized it was identical to the one Zayden provided. He could not help but smirk. After that, he took off his suit and changed into casual wear. Then, he put on a cap, sunglasses, and a mask. Callum had wrapped himself up tightly. When he arrived at the area of Cassidy's apartment, the paparazzi who had been waiting became restless. Every one of them im

When Cassidy saw the image of the hospital's corridor in the article, she immediately understood something.On that day, she had a feeling that someone was secretly watching them. It turned out that it was not an illusion. She could not believe how well Callum acted. After all, he even managed to fool Cassidy, a member of the special troops. "Ms. Lorimer, you must confront Callum," Cassidy said furiously. Vivian nodded and answered, "Okay, I'll call him now. I want to ask him why he set me up like this when I've done nothing wrong to him."However, to Vivian's disappointment, after several attempts, Callum's phone was still turned off."Try calling the office's phone," Jill suggested.So, Vivian dialed Callum's office number. Nevertheless, it was his secretary who answered. Apparently, he had not been to the company, and his secretary did not know where he was. This further confirmed that Callum was indeed involved in the plot to frame Vivian.Right then, Jill, standing

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 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.

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.

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.

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?
