"If you take a step out of this hotel, I'll make sure your account is frozen,"Smith stopped instantly when he heard his father cold and determine voice. He gulped down into nothing when his father statement rang in his ears. His father would cease his account? Even though he was angry at his father and wanted to leave the hotel, he didn't want his father to freeze his account. However, it was his father's money , not his money. After a few seconds, he took a deep breath and asked in a cold tone, "Is that the way you want to do it, huh? Fine, no problem."Mr. Adonis Wilson shook his head with a sigh as he stared at his son, who sounded cold and determined. He was sad that his son didn't want to be with him despite his efforts and struggles to build a better future for him. He regained his composure and said calmly. "You forced me to do this, Smith. You should try to listen to my explanation,""I'm not ready to listen to your so-called explanation. I'm your illegitimate son, right
A few days ago. After Smith signed the divorce paper and left the house, Georgia had strange feelings. She couldn't help but notice something was wrong. The Smith she knew would kneel and do anything possible to beg her, but he signed the divorce paper without hesitation. He even had the guts to threaten her. Unlike before, he looked powerful and sounded confident. She felt there was more to him. Somehow, she began to regret her action of sending him away. When she remembered that someone as strong as Edward was in her favor, she felt at ease. With Edward, she didn't need to be scared of anyone. Besides, he was the CEO of the Nexus company which was well-known across Phoenix City. Not only would she become very popular under his influence, but different prominent companies would want to sign an endorsement deal with her.She snapped out of her thoughts and turned to Edward when he placed his hand on her shoulder. She shuddered under his touch. "What's wrong? Are you thinking abo
"Where are you going to, you douchebag?"Smith's gaze darkened as he listened to Edward's curse. He clenched his hand with an angry look on his face. How dare he talk to him in that manner? He wanted to teach Edward a lesson that he won't forget in his life but his account has been disabled. However, he didn't look fearful and submissive unlike before. He stood firmly with his arms crossed under his chest. He had an arrogant look on his face. "Do you think I'm running away from you? It's such a pity that you still think highly of yourself," Smith replied coldly which shocked Edward. 'This son of a bitch has nothing and he dares talk to me in such a manner. I'll make sure he learns a lesson or two from me,'Edward snorted out with an angry look on his face. He tightened his knuckles tightly. "Hey, who do you think you're to talk to me in that way, huh? I'll make sure you suffer here," he tried to use his phone to call but Georgia beat him to it. "You don't have to waste your ener
Mr. Issac pulled his phone from his ear and moved closer to Mr. Adonis, who was sitting on a sofa beside him. "Your son is ready to come back, sir," Mr. Issac said, and he smiled in satisfaction. He stroked his beard and said in a cold tone, "I knew he was going to submit but I never expected it to be soon,"Adonis knew that his son wouldn't be able to survive in the public. After Smith left, he ordered his men to spy on Smith. He ordered the restaurant not to employ his son in their company because he knew how strong-headed his son could be. He knew his son was going to submit to him if no one employed him in their company. With his power, he was capable of shutting down the most powerful companies in Phenix City. Even though he didn't want to take such action, he knew Smith wouldn't submit to him if he managed to get a job. However, he was undeniably excited when he got the news. "What are you waiting for? Tell him to acknowledge me as his father," he said coldly. "Okay, Sir,
Edward and Georgie were extremely shocked when they heard the statement of the CEO of the Red Rose restaurant. He wanted them out of his restaurant. How was that possible?Edward felt insulted and annoyed. "How dare you! You want me out of your restaurant because of this douchebag," he said coldly and glared at Mr. Luke, who lowered his head in fear. Mr. Luke felt conflicted. He knew Edward was also a powerful man in the society and not one that could be offended but he didn't have a choice. He could tell Smith was more powerful, if not, he wouldn't be able to make him go bankrupt within a few minutes. They were both powerful people. "I'm sorry, you have to obey my order. Please leave politely while I'm still nice," he quickly said in a cold tone as Smith threw him a fierce glare. Once again, Edward was shocked. His body trembled with anger as he condescendingly glared at Smith. What was happening? He wanted to make the manager send Smith out of the restaurant to flaunt his powe
Huh? Mr. Luke turned and looked at Smith with a surprised look on his face. He was elated and confused that Smith could give him such a high position after buying the company from him. Mr. Luke lowered his head and knelt on the floor without hesitation, "Thank you, sir. I promise to be loyal and honest to you for the rest of my life."He kowtowed and knocked his head on the floor countlessly. Smith was touched by his action. He didn't know that Mr. Luke had such a submissive side. However, he didn't show it."You don't need to go this extreme," he said coldly, and Mr. Luke stopped kowtowing. He knew Mr. Luke loved the restaurant so he was reluctant to leave. And besides, he had a reputation to maintain. Truly, Mr. Luke didn't want to sell his restaurant to Smith but he had to because he didn't have a choice. He was also reluctant to leave the company because it would be a shame to him that he sold his multi-billion dollar restaurant just like that. He was glad that Smith gave h
"You want me to pin the pregnancy on him?" Georgia asked with a surprised look on her face. She was frustrated and furious. She had to divorce and date Edward because she wanted to satisfy them, then again, her mother wanted her to pin the pregnancy on Edward. However, Olivia was unfazed by her daughter's indifferent expression. She said coldly. "Of course, that's the reason why you're dating Edward. Or have you forgotten?"She was angry at her daughter for being naive. If her daughter could make Edward accept the pregnancy then the kid would be the successor of his wealth, and their family would also benefit from it. "No, I can't do that. You didn't tell me this earlier. And besides, he's not the father of my son. How do you expect me to do such a despicable thing?" She asked coldly, and her mother flared up. "You call that despicable, huh? I'm doing this because of you so why are you acting this way?""Or do you like the life that you're living with Smith? Can't you see that afte
"Huh?" Smith muttered with a cold look on his face. He was fazed by his father's cold and unquestionable tone. How could his father ask him to come to his residence in such a tone?Mr. Adonis, who noticed the awkward atmosphere, quickly said. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound that way.""I won't force you but I would be glad if you could come to my mansion. I would like to see my son again,""What do you think?" He asked. Smith bit on his lower lips until it almost bled. He contemplated whether to visit his father or not. He had conflicted feelings. Even though he was angry at his father, he was glad that his father kept to his word and released his account after he acknowledged him as his father. He stroked his chin for a while as he thought about it. He decided to give his father a chance. He had lost his mother so it would be better to bond with his father instead of fighting with him. There was no need for him to hold grudges against his dad. He just had to let go of the pas
