Rags to Riches Chapter 78 Asserting Dominance
"Jerome Sadler, come out right now!" Marcus shouted toward the mansion."Who is making such a ruckus? Can't you see that I'm sleeping?" A man with gray hair and a goatee wearing a robe walked out slowly."Master! There's a useless man spouting nonsense here! He said you will beg to treat him. He also said your medicinal skills are unremarkable." When William saw Jerome, he approached William to hold him and added a lot of fake details.Jerome chuckled and said with his eyes closed, "They are only trying to provoke me so I'd treat them. It happens frequently every year. Just chase them away!" "Hey! Did you hear that? You are just a matrilocal son-in-law from the Lorimer family. Lowly trash! Get lost! Were you dreaming when you said Master would beg you?" William looked at Marcus and said sarcastically.William hated Marcus right now. The reason was that William saw Marcus as a deadbeat who spent his wife's money yet always acted in an arrogant manner."Wait!" Jerome was a littl
Rags to Riches Chapter 79 Expensive Dishes
"William, you know he's my …" Vivian knew William was trying to trouble Marcus on purpose, so she tried to help Marcus.Before she could finish, Marcus interrupted. "Me? Weren't you talking about me just now? I am the matrilocal son-in-law. The useless piece of trash who spends my wife's money," Marcus said casually.The hall was filled with awkwardness. No one expected Marcus to be so direct and shameless."Come on! Let's not spoil the mood because of some party pooper. Everyone, eat." William reacted quickly and welcomed everyone warmly."William, after you. Thank you for hosting all of us today. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the chance to dine at the luxurious Treacle Trove Hotel.""Yes, William is the most successful person in our class—he's a professor under 30. I heard you're even the first disciple of Mr. Jerome, the miracle doctor.""I envy you so much. The person you marry will be so lucky."Everyone was flattering William. There were even a few pretty girls winking at Wi
Rags to Riches Chapter 80 Hidden Perk
Three of each dish? A single order of those dishes cost 250 thousand dollars. Three sets would cost 750 thousand dollars. That was enough money to purchase two mansions in Cromford.Everyone stopped eating and stared at Marcus."Damn! Has this guy gone mad?"William was anxious. He only had 500 thousand dollars in his bank account. If he were to fork out 375 thousand dollars for a meal, he would almost go bankrupt."Marcus, are you crazy? Can you finish all the dishes you ordered?" Serena questioned Marcus loudly."Yes, Marcus. I didn't bring that much money with me today. All the dishes you ordered might cost hundreds of thousands of dollars," Vivian said with a face full of shock. She was trying to stop Marcus."It's all right. We're going Dutch anyway. Besides, I believe William is a generous man. I'm sure he's fine with paying this much money," Marcus said with a grin."Of course. As long as you can afford to pay your half, I'm not afraid at all," William pretended to be non
Rags to Riches Chapter 81 I Can Predict the Future
"So, the meal is free? Hah, see? I somehow predicted the future! Does it also mean I won't have to pay for my portion?" Marcus chuckled while secretly praising the manager's acting skills."Yes, you're in luck!" The manager nodded at once.Meanwhile, the others fell into a daze. Their mouths were wide open and unable to close. They found it insane that a meal worth more than a million dollars could be complementary.William rushed ahead and yelled, "N-No, I should pay for my portion first! I'm the lucky person who deserves to have the complimentary meal!" "Yeah. Sir, William meant to pay for our food today, so he should be the one to receive this free meal!""We can all prove it. Besides, we were only kidding about letting that loser pay first!""Sir, I bet you don't know that man before you is the Lorimer family's live-in son-in-law. He's a loser! Meanwhile, William is the youngest professor in Cromford City and a disciple of Jerome Sadler, the miracle doctor!"The others pipe
Rags to Riches Chapter 82 A Fake
All at once, everyone's ears perked up. They were curious about how Marcus had predicted the future."It was just a lucky guess." Marcus kept his reply vague."Oh." Vivian pursed her lips with slight disappointment but didn't pursue the topic.Serena was curious but instantly lost interest when Marcus brushed the truth off. "Tsk! What's the use of showing off if you're not actually revealing your secrets to us!""Alright, let's go to Starscape Bar for some karaoke next!" William forced a smile as he changed the topic. Then, he briefly glared at Marcus as if saying, "Just wait! I'll put you in your place!"Soon, the ten cars William had arranged for arrived outside Treacle Trove Hotel to pick them up.Everyone got in, and only William, Vivian, Serena, and Marcus remained.Arms on his waist, William deliberately exclaimed, "What do we do? There's only one car left, so there's not enough space for all of us. Um, what's your name again? Uh, Marcus! Why don't you take a cab there you
Rags to Riches Chapter 83 He Is the Hidden Prince
"Was it a present from Marcus?""If so, I bet it's a knockoff bought from the streets!"The envious expression on the women's faces gave way to contempt."I think so too. He's a matrilocal son-in-law who can't fend for himself. How is he able to afford the Faber necklace?"Someone clucked his tongue. "Just how unlucky you are to have such a husband? He can't even buy you something decent.""Do you think everyone can be as capable as William is? He spends so much for a meal."Everyone glanced at Vivian's necklace and roasted her."You can ask William if the necklace is authentic or a knockoff. He knows it well." Marcus smiled at William.William was stunned. The thought of what happened in the restaurant that day made him grit his teeth.He quickly looked elsewhere, trying to avoid the question.One of the women giggled. "Well, well, well. How bold of you. So, you're trying to say that the necklace is authentic?"Do you have the check, the receipt, or the certificate of authe
Rags to Riches Chapter 84 I Love You 1000
Silence dawned upon everyone as they hushed their breaths, wanting to find out who the Hidden Prince was.When they saw his face, the women squealed."It's William! Oh my days, it's him!""He's so dashing! Not only is he a professor, but he also has an angelic voice. Man, I wonder who his girlfriend will be.""I've fallen in love. I don't care anymore. I'm gonna confess to him after the gathering ends. Even if I only get to spend one night with him, it'll be totally worth it!"There were a few of them who had a crush on William. Now that he was revealed to be the Hidden Prince, they fell madly in love."It's him?" Serena smiled."What a pleasant surprise, William. You've gone viral online. The singer—who has won the ladies' hearts—is our friend!" Mateo went on stage while laughing.William said smugly, "You're exaggerating. Singing is my hobby. That day, I went on stage and simply sang a song. "I didn't expect so many people to record it. It is my honor." He kept glancing in
Rags to Riches Chapter 85 Framing
"Who hit my man? Show yourself! Otherwise, I'll make sure none of you get out of here alive!"Fuck! How dare you brats bully my man?" yelled Jack Cornelius, who was smoking a cigar while sitting on a chair.Standing next to him was that chubby man with a swollen face."William, what should we do? That fatty called for backup. That big guy is not someone we should mess with."Jack Cornelius is ruthless. When he first came here, he crippled all the gang bosses in the streets to claim the territory!" Mateo whispered to William with pale lips."W-What? That's Jack Cornelius? The legendary man who doesn't bat an eyelid no matter who his opponent is?""What should we do? He's known to be protective of his underlings. Now that we've beaten his underling to a pulp, we're dead meat! I-I wanna go home!"Everyone began shaking. Some of them even sneaked out from the back to run for their lives."Don't fret! Calm down! It's not a big deal. That chubby man merely suffered a few scrapes and

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

Chapter 725 To Invite Us for a Simple Dinner
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

Chapter 722 Special Art of Breathing
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.

"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.

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
