Both families had suffered greatly, and the public had grown tired of the constant fighting.One thing is certain though, that Santos had personally lost a lot from as the outcome of the ‘Cold War’ the two families were having with each other. His family also got tired of defending him so much, and even if they wanted to, there was very little they could do since the public had taken great interest in the topic at hand, and they never forgot that he was actually bought with a lot of money from his single mother, and that he was not actually a Melaka family member. To make the matters worse, a woman came out of nowhere and claimed that the story was true, that she’s the real mother of Santos, and that she had long since regretted letting go of her son, and wished to get him back, but didn’t even know when h family she had sold her son to. She confessed to the general public via news
Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Six; Cold War. The Barons had been in their house, or office, still trying to make sure they remain relevant in the country and that the name Baron still remains a feared and reverent name in the country. But unfortunately for the Baron family, they had to be caught up in the mess that LUCAS had caused them in the background. The Baron family had always been one of the most respected families in the city. They had built a name for themselves through hard work and dedication to their businesses. The Melaka family, on the other hand, had always been a bit of a mystery. They were wealthy and powerful, but no one really knew much about them.It all started when the Melaka family heard a rumor that the Baron family had released a negative news article about them in their media house. The Melakas were furious and immediately retaliated by releasing some of the Barons' most well-kept secrets to the public.The Barons were shocked and outraged. They knew the
Chapter One Hundred And Seventy seven; The Baron Son.Batons too were suffering and it led to a great fall for them, especially the Barons. Unfortunately for them, they had been so much carried away by the mess that their son had created, making sure to train him in the right way by forcing him to go to school and all. And Kevin made sure not to give them a quiet time while they were at it. Since he was not allowed to leave school, but he made sure to have his best time in school.Kevin Baron had always felt a burning passion for music. Ever since he was a young boy, he would spend hours on end tinkering with his guitar, creating melodies that would fill the air around him with a sense of magic and wonder. He loved the freedom that music brought him, the ability to express himself in ways that words could never quite capture.But as he grew older, Kevin's parents began to worry about his future. They were a wealthy family, with a long history of success in the business world. They
Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Eight; Director Of Baron Enterprise.While Grandpa Brandy Baron thought that it was a good idea to let Kevin continue to do what he wanted to do, with the excuse of him being a child who would give them dreams up when the due time comes, his father thought otherwise. Patrick Baron insisted that Kevin should've been forced to remain in school until he graduates and becomes part of the family business, and was willing to do just about anything to make sure this happened.As for his mother, Mr. Melissa Bafon, she was just torn between wanting to see her child grow up the way he wanted and him taking some responsibilities that were due to him.That was why even when he escaped, she tried to follow him and talk some sense into her son, making him understand why it is that he couldn’t live his life just like he was about anybody. Kevin finally listened to the words of his mother, and also because he didn’t have much money to continue about living as a music
Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Nine; Truly, he had shown him.After going back and forth, exchanging words, the two parties finally decide on a place to meet, that place was no other than Luxus restaurant, the very one under Lucas’ name.It was the best place to go since both the two parties do not really like Lucas, so there was no way they could plan with him to make the stay of the other person more memorable in the negative or even positive kind of way. They also agreed to meet in broad daylight, so as to create a positive image in front of the general public. When they are seen together in a restaurant, eating together, one might easily forget that there was even a fluid between the two parties. As soon as those in question stepped foot into the restaurant, all eyes were on them.Santos Melaka was the first one to come, he came together with his rich father, as if he was accompanying him and in the same time showing the whole world that he had won the battle and Santos still r

Surely, before they would reach the seat, it would be easy for him to disappear by then, and they wouldn’t even know he was there, tahts would be better for him right?But then again, what would that mean? That he was not being professional? That he couldn’t stop and greet his other ViP guests? How would it sound in front of everyone? Lucas carefully thought about it and decided that it was better to meet the Barons, and who knows, he might be able to find out a thing or two about them too just like he did regarding the Melakas.As Patrick and Kevin Baron entered the restaurant, they were greeted by the maitre d' who led them to their reserved table. The restaurant was located in the heart of the city, and it was one of the most exclusive and high-end establishments in town.

Chapter One Hundred And Eighty Two; Words Of Wisdom, From Experience.“The best way to get revenge is to do what I am currently doing.” Lucas said to James who was standing in front of him with mixed feelings. “And what exactly is it that you are doing? It doesn’t seem to be so clear” James asked truthfully seeking advice because of resent, he had been resenting his cousin and just wish for bad things to happen to him, but at the same time, he d doesn’t want his cousin to get hurt, so he truly wanted to get advice from Lucas, who seem to always know what he was doing. “You need to take a look at the other side of life, the winning side of life by deeping your hands into whatever you could get yourself in and making your glorious come back, the best revenge is to become the least thing they would expect from you, that way, they’ll be too shocked to do anything when they realise how far you’ve already gone.” “Is that what you are doing now?
