During his research, he found out that his father had the biggest share of the company which means he could make commands as he wanted. “I'll make sure you and your family regret looking down on me,” he said in a cold tone and clenched his fist tightly.“Hello.” He spoke into the phone after calling Micheal, who picked up the call without hesitation. “Hello, Sir. How may I help you, Young Master?”“Are you aware of any partnership that my father has with any company in Italy?” He asked in a cold tone. “Yeah. Although I'm not aware of the companies he has partnerships with because they're many, I can tell he has bigger shares in each of the companies,” Micheal said and he arched his eyebrows. “What's wrong, young master,” Micheal asked in a concerned tone after the awkward silence. He snapped out of his thoughts and looked up with a confused look on his face. How could his father be involved in so many businesses? No wonder he was able to gather such assets. “Nothing, I'm fine.
“Hello, Sir?” The manager spoke into the phone after the third ring. “Good morning, Mr. Einstein,” he greeted in a calm tone. “Who are you? How may I help you, Mr. Man?” He asked. “I'm Smith Edward and I want you to take out someone for me,” he said. “Edward? Like the powerful Emperor Edward?” The man demanded and he smirked. “It seems you're smart and well-informed,” he said and smiled. “Why wouldn't I be, Sir? The Emperor has the biggest share in my company. He's my benefactor,” the man said and he nodded his head. “I'm glad you know,” he said and stroked his chin gently. He was glad to hear from the manager that his father had the largest share in his company. It would make things easier for him to ruin Ava's reputation and career. “I'm sure you know who I am,” he said. “Yes. You're probably his son or his relatives,” the man said respectfully and he smirked. “You're indeed a smart person so I'll be straightforward,” he said. “But how may I help you, sir?” the man asked
“No. This is not possible!” She yelled out with disbelief and staggered backward. She missed her step and crashed hard on the floor. She whined in pain and crawled toward her phone. “I’m the star of the company. Aren't I? He can't fire me like that, right?” She asked herself but she couldn't get an answer to it.She swallowed hard as another letter entered her mail. It was from her boss who sent a receipt of a compensation fund that he sent to her. “Compensation?” She asked and scoffed.She grabbed her phone from the floor and walked out of her hotel room with an angry look on her face.She ruffled her hair with a frustrated look on her face as she tried hard to remember the person that she offended who could be so powerful to make her boss fire her without prior notice. Who is he? She barely had issues with anyone in Italy because she was trying to protect her reputation. She wouldn't want anyone to taint the career she had been building badly. The only person she offended recen
“What!” she gasped out in shock and flinched back in fear after hearing the manager's statement. “Who is that person if I may ask? What can I do to appeal to that person?” She asked and he scoffed.“That's not enough. You should stay away from me,” he said in a cold tone and she swallowed hard. “Please don't do this to me. I knew I shouldn't have offended that person but please forgive me, Sir,” she said and he shook his head with a sigh. “It seems you don't get what I'm trying to say. What I'm trying to tell you is that the person won't let me employ you into this company unless you kneel and apologize to him,” he said and she swallowed. She ruffled her hair with a frustrated look on her face, unable to remember that she had offended. “But I can't remember the person that I offended,” she complained and he scoffed. “That's your problem to sort. I had told you times without numbers that you shouldn't look down on anyone even if you're a celebrity,” he said and she shook her head
“What did you just say?” She asked and for whatever reason, the drunkenness flew out of her system the moment she heard his last statement. “I didn't say anything. Maybe you misheard me, right” he asked and chuckled mockingly. Her face turned red as she turned to him with an angry look on her face. “No, I didn't misheard you. You claimed that I haven't learned my lesson. What did you do to me?” She asked in a cold tone and he scoffed. “It seems you heard me. It's a good thing that you aren't deaf after all.”“It doesn't matter anymore whether you learned your lesson or not, but I'm certain you'll live to regret your action,” he said in a cold tone and crossed his arms under his broad chest. “How dare you threaten me…” she trembled in anger as she pointed at him. She hiccupped and staggered almost losing her balance but he came on time and helped her before she could fall. “I thought I told you never to touch me,” she cursed at him and pushed his hand away from her chest. “Is th
“What!” She gasped out in shock after hearing the shocking revelation. She couldn't believe her ears when she heard from her grandma that Smith wasn't the same person he used to be. She even claimed that he had become more powerful and mysterious. As much as she didn't want to believe her grandmother, she knew that it was true. She couldn't deny the change she noticed in him. He had grown taller and broader. He looks neat and healthy compared to the time he was living in their house more like a slave. He had even become bolder and colder so that weak-minded people could get intimidated by him.She knew her grandma wasn't a fan of exaggerating things. She meant it when she said Smith wasn't the person he used to be. She had better be careful of him then. “How could he become so powerful in such a short time?” She asked with a confused look on her face and Madam Kate scoffed. “Can't you get it? It seems he's related to Edward's family in one way or the other.”“I heard one of the
“I bet that's the reason why you're begging me, right?” he asked and she shook her head vehemently. “What did I expect from you? I made a mistake thinking you'll be truthful for once,” he said and she smiled nervously. “I'm not lying. Why should I?” She asked and he smiled. “A good question you should ask yourself and not me. You should know the reason why you're lying, right? Shouldn't you?” He asked and she looked away. He knew she was hiding something but he couldn't tell what it was. So to find out, he had to play alone and pretend he was on her side. “I thought I'd told you earlier. I'm begging you because I feel guilty for what I did to you in the past. Please give me a chance to make up for it,” she demanded and he scoffed. “Do you think you can make up for it?” He asked and she nodded her head quickly. “Yes, I believe. Although I know it might take time for you to forgive me, I'll be patient,” she said and he smirked discreetly. “So what do you want me to do for you?”
What! Micheal turned to a shocked expression on his face after he heard her chuckle. “Did you just smile?” He asked with a surprised look on his face. It was his first time seeing her smile after two years of working together as colleagues. She had always been cold and fierce. She barely talks to anyone. It was a shock to see her chuckle in the middle of a discussion that had to do with the young Master. “No, I didn't. Something is wrong with your eyelids,” she said coldly and he chuckled. “That's a lie. I saw it. You look beautiful while smiling. You should smile often. It suits better than wearing this cold face of yours,” he said and she glared at him. He swallowed hard as she stood up from the couch and strode toward him. “You're a weakling. This is probably the reason why you insist that you want to send the information to the young Master,” she said and he shook his head vehemently. “Okay, fine. I won't send it to him,” he said and she nodded her head. “Pretend you didn
The old ancestor stopped attending to his wound and turned to Micheal with a shocked expression on his face. “Huh?” He muttered with a confused look on his face and Micheal nodded his head in response. “Are you sure about what you're talking about? You want to follow the cultivation path?” The old ancestor asked. “Yes, old ancestor. I have made up my mind. I want to follow the path you followed to become strong and powerful,” Micheal said affirmatively with his eyes burning with coldness and fury. The old ancestor smiled and nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw how determined Micheal was. Micheal had to made up his mind because of everything that happened. Not only was he hated by the members of the Rodriguez family because of Smith but he was also bullied. None of them wanted to be a friend with a betrayer. He made such decisions because he also wanted to make Smith suffer for what he had done to his family in such a way that he wouldn't be able to recover from it. “But
“Who are you, Micheal?” Micheal asked in a cold tone while his body trembled slightly in fear as he glanced at the man who was staring at him with a cold and piercing gaze. It seemed as though the man was prying inside his son and he couldn't do anything about it. Something about that man was strange and mysterious. Not only did his voice travel across every corner of the building without any modern equipment but it also made them tremble in fear. How could a member of the Rodriguez family be so strong and mysterious? This was the question that was on the mind of the members of the Rodriguez family who were present in the estate. They stared at the man in fear. “You don't have to be scared of me. I'm one of you.”“Your family is only a branch of the Rodriguez family and I can be considered as one of your ancestors. I'm called Elder Lin.” The man said in a calm tone as he walked toward them. Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!Everyone gasped out in shock when they heard his statement. Who didn't
Georgia was rushed to the hospital by her family members. Although they were facing different challenges because of her, they were there to support her because her unborn child was the only person that could change their fate. They didn't take Smith's words seriously. Even if he doesn't believe that he was the father of the child, they could convince him to do a DNA test to prove who the father of the child was. “We have to make sure she doesn't die.”“Yes. We can't allow anything to happen to the child inside of her.”“We have to protect her. That's the only way we can reclaim our position in Phoenix City again.”The members of the Rodriguez family were desperate and willing to make sure that the unborn child inside of Georgia survive. If only they knew that fate had something else in store for them. “Where's the doctor?” Micheal asked angrily with a cold look on his face when he realized that his family members weren't willing to listen to him like they do in the past. At that m
As soon as Smith returned home, he met someone he wasn't expecting to see. At least so soon. He saw his father, Mr. Anderson, smiling at him warmly as he stared at him. “Welcome back, son,” his dad said and hugged him warmly.He hugged his father back without any sign of hesitation even though he wondered what was wrong. “You did a great job sir. I wouldn't have believed that you're so decisive if I didn't see it myself,” his father said and he arched his eyebrows. He looked up with a surprised look on his face when he realized what his father was trying to talk about. He shook his head with a sigh. He couldn't help but wonder how his father managed to find out about what happened in the Rodriguez's estate so soon. He was unaware that his father had sent someone there secretly to broadcast everything that happened there to him privately. He was amazed and satisfied with his son's judgment. He didn't expect Smith to be so decisive and ruthless to those who dare to go against him.
Georgia sighed and shuddered inexplicably when she heard his statement. She felt warmth in her heart when she saw how considerate he was about her. A thought crossed her mind as she stared at the young man she used to look down upon until he revealed his identity as the Young Master of the Edward family.“Did he let her go because he knows the identity of the unborn child inside of me? Does he know that he's the father of my unborn child?” She shook her head as the thought crossed her mind. She felt it was almost impossible for him to find out that he was the father of the unborn child inside of her. She didn't bother to tell him now because she felt it was absurd and shameful. Apart from that, there's a chance that he wouldn't believe her. How could he believe her when he couldn't remember having sex with her? That was right. The only thing he had sex with her was when he was drunk so it was normal that he couldn't remember it because she was discreet about everything that happene
Smith smiled coldly as he watched the family members of the Rodriguez family cry sorrowfully after the demise of Madam Kate, who was a mother and grandmother to all of them. He felt half of the burden he had been crying in his heart and mind decreased the moment she fell on the floor lifeless. He has been carrying the hatred and pain for more than five years. His life felt like hell during the five years that he spent in the Rodriguez family. They treated him as trash and relegated him to a post even insignificant before the house maids in the Rodriguez family. No one regarded him despite being the husband of Georgia, who was a good member of the Rodriguez family. He had always hated himself for being weak and helpless before them. He had promised to make them regret their actions in the past even though he didn't believe himself. Who could have believed that after five years his father would find him and bring him back home to enjoy unlimited wealth? Despite the atmosphere that w
Madam Kate gasped out in shock as soon as Smith finished his statement. His statement caused the expression of the members of the Rodriquez family to go grim. They were extremely shocked and shaken by Smith's statement. None of them expected him to be so ruthless and cold-hearted. Although it was within their speculation and expectation, they couldn't help but feel shocked and helpless. Madam Kate, on the other hand, looked at him with a hint of unwillingness and despair. She knew there was nothing she could do. Resisting or fighting back was futile because Smith was determined to make sure that she kills herself. At that moment, she regretted going against him. It was too late to repair the damage that she had done to him in the past. She made him feel less of a human because he was not worthy or up to their standard. Smith remained cold and expressionless faced with the pleas of the members of the Rodriguez family. It was natural for him to be ruthless to the family that dared
Micheal looked up at him hesitantly for a while, unable to find an answer to Smith's question. He was also not expecting Smith's question. He knew it was not necessary for Smith to ask him such a question because he was among those who went against him and looked down upon the Rodriguez family the most in the past. Could Smith not know that he was trying to save himself from the crisis?Madam Kate felt slightly embarrassed that her supposed favorite son-in-law didn't hesitate to leave when the family was faced with such a threat. She didn't blame him either because she knew that their chance of survival was low considering what they've done against him in the past and even recently before his identity as the Young Master of the Edward family was revealed. “Why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me that you are shocked by my question,” Smith demanded in a cold tone as he stared at him with a piercing gaze. Micheal swallowed the lump in his throat when he saw the menacing look th
Huh? Smith was quite taken aback by her question. He arched his eyebrows and stared at her with a confused look on his face. He couldn't help but chuckled inwardly when he heard her question. Instead of asking her questions, he redirected the question to her. “Don’t you think that's a ridiculous question, Kate? If you were in my shoes and you were trampled upon in the past, what are you going to do to such people?” He asked in a calm tone. He had a cold smile on his face that made him look sinister and unapproachable. Madam Kate shuddered in fear and swallowed the lump of saliva in her throat when she heard his question. She couldn't dare to refute him. She knew he was saying the truth anyways. If someone has offended her the same way she has offended him, she would make sure that person doesn't go scot-free. But how could she tell him such a thing? It would make no difference than shooting herself in the legs. She kept quiet while trembling in fear as she stared at Smith, who l
