What!

A soft gasp left Edward's lips before he could control himself. He arched his eyebrows as different thoughts began to cross his head upon hearing the report from the doctor.

How was that possible? He asked himself but he couldn't get an answer to it. He didn't want to believe that the result was real.

Georgia stared at him with a confused look on her, unable to tell the reason why he looked shocked and unhappy. He didn't hide his displeasure when he heard that news, and she thought he wasn't happy that she was pregnant for him.

Edward, on the other side, couldn't stop thinking about the result he got.

That was right, he was supposed to be happy that she was pregnant but he couldn't after finding out that she was eight weeks pregnant. He wanted to mask his feelings but he couldn't so he had to let them out.

If she was truly eight weeks pregnant that meant that he wasn't the father of the child inside of her because it wasn't more than a month that he started having sex with

    Georgia smiled in satisfaction when she saw the look on Edward's face, the look that held anxiety and hesitation. She believed the doctor had spoken to him and made him believe that she was pregnant for him. Her heart skipped a million beats as different thoughts crossed her mind. She couldn't wait to be in his arms again. Although she was pained and heartbroken by his statement, she knew he was only overreacting and if she was in his shoes, she would do the same even worse. She hoped he didn't find out about her secret in the future. And if he does, she is going to find a way to change the situation the same way she did recently. She snapped out of her reverie and stared at him with a confused look as he stopped midway. He brought out his phone from his pocket and read something on his face. What! A soft gasp left his lips upon reading what was on his phone. She wondered what could make him react in such a way. She didn't care about it. She believed it was some random things th

    Georgia brought her phone from her handbag and stared at it with teary eyes. She wondered why her phone was beeping frequently as different messages popped on the screen. It only meant one thing, the news was going viral.She took a deep breath, trying to fight the urge that was compelling her not to check her phone. With a single thought, she swiped the phone open and a soft gasp left her lips upon reading the content of the messages that were sent to her. It was a message from the media company where she worked for. "You should come to the company right now," she could imagine how angry and livid the manager would be. She wondered how she was going to control the situation. The company stated in that message that after the news went viral, a lot of fans who had booked for her show were requesting a refund, therefore, she wouldn't be able to attend the show tour that she was having in Paris. They complained it had to do with her so they wanted to see her and have one word or the ot

    Huh?She turned to him with a confused and cold look on her face. He wondered what was wrong with her until she picked the phone from the floor and stretched it at him, displaying Smith's caller ID on it. "When did Smith become your business partner? What do you have to do with him?" She asked in a cold tone, and he took a deep breath trying to come up with a better lie. "Don't try to lie to me because I'll still find out. What are you hiding from me?" She asked, trying to play with his emotion and make him speak. But Smith was smarter so he could tell what she was trying to do."What do you mean? I'm not hiding anything from you," he replied hastily, and she scoffed. "Then why is your so-called business partner number saved as Smith?" She asked in a cold tone. "That's because he's my business partner. I mean… your ex-husband isn't the only person bearing that man. Or is it?" He asked, and she shook her head in response to his question. She nodded her head gently, trying to convi

    "Please don't be annoyed at me. I promise to send the files to your email as soon as possible," he shuttered after he heard Smith's threat. After witnessing how Smith turned the tides and made the whole internet cozy, he didn't doubt his ability anymore. Instead, his fear and respect for him grew bigger. It was a surprise and unexplainable how he grew to be such a powerful person despite his poor background. "You'd better do if you don't want to face my wrath," Smith said coldly, and he swallowed hard. "I'll do that, Sir. Thank you," he said and hung up on the call. He heaved out a sigh after ending the call with Smith. He didn't know he was holding his breath until now. He wondered what authority really possessed that made him feel intimidated even without seeing him. Smith wasn't the same person again. He had changed a lot. He wondered how his fiancee would react if she knew how powerful and wealthy her ex-husband had become overnight. He shoved his phone into his pocket and w

    "You're yet to answer my question, Georgia. Am I the fool you're referring to?" Edward asked and tightened his fist with a cold look on his face. Although he didn't hear all of their conversation, he knew they were talking to him because some of their conversations were connected to him. But how could they dare to call him a fool? For what?He needed an answer to that question that was disturbing his mind and they were the only ones who could answer him but none of them were ready to call. Their knees were shaking as though they were guilty. He didn't need to be told that something was wrong. "Why aren't you saying anything?" He asked again, his tone becoming louder and colder. Olivia racked her brain, trying to come up with a better excuse to divert Edward's mind since it seemed he'd caught them red-handed but wanted them to admit to their mistake. "Do you mean that bastard, Smith?" Olivia quickly asked, and he arched his eyebrows wondering what she was up to. "Huh?""Yes, we w

    Smith left the work he was doing and diverted his gaze to the phone that was beeping loudly before him on the desk. He pushed some files aside and picked up the phone from the table then scrolled through it until he saw the message that Edward sent to him. It was the image of the pregnancy result that he'd requested. Surprisingly, the pregnancy results were more than two with two different details but with the same name. He arched his eyebrows as he read through the file of the image. He had to convert both of the images into a PDF document so he could read them carefully. He arched his eyebrows after he was done reading the documents that seemed complex. He had been trying to understand why the files had her name in both of them but different dates of pregnancy intake. It meant only one thing, she'd manipulated the results in Edward's favor. That was the thought that came to his mind but he beat himself to it because he still believed that his ex-wife, Georgia, wouldn't do such

  • Rise Of The Secret Trillionaire Heir   Chapter 63: Who's Mr. Smith

    "Mr. Smith?"Georgia arched his eyebrows after hearing that name again. Mr. Smith! Who was Mr. Smith for crying out loud? She couldn't help but feel suspicious after hearing his name for the third time. She was annoyed that he'd had to deal with Edward. The last time that she was with Edward, she could remember vividly how Edward was shaking when he was conversing with that so-called Smith. She knew there was more to that man and she wanted to know what it was. If he could make Edward nervous then the man must be a very powerful and influential person. Somehow, that made her determined to get close to the mysterious Mr. Smith. Edward, on the other side, was scared when he heard Smith's name. He wasn't surprised like he used to because he knew what the man was capable of doing. He single-handedly made a powerful publishing house to delete and apologize for the rumor that was spread about his fiance, Georgia. He took a deep breath, trying to control his heart which was beating rapi

    "Thank you," Edward muttered and breathed out heavily as he lay beside Georgia with a sad look on his face. She smiled at him, pulled the bedsheets from her body, and climbed down from the bed. He rolled to the other side of the bed and gripped her wrist firmly with a cold look on his face. "Where are you heading to?" He asked and she took a deep breath. She scratched her hair and smiled awkwardly. "I want to get a cup of coffee for both of us," she said and he scoffed. "That's why the staff assistant is here. Let me make an order and it'll be delivered in the blink of an eye," he said and she shook her head hastily. She wouldn't let him do such a thing. If he did, she wouldn't be able to carry out her plan, and his action would jeopardize everything and she wouldn't want such a thing to happen. "No, I'll do it myself. I just want to take a fresh air outside," she said and he nodded his head even though he wasn't convinced. "That's nice. I would like to go with you," he sai

    He turned to the people who were gossiping behind him earlier with a cold and menace look on his face. They staggered backward in fear and lowered their head in shame as he stared at them intensely while breathing quietly. He held his sword firmly with a cold look on his face as blood dripped from the sword. He swiftly returned the sword to the sheath and looked up with a cold look on his face. He turned to a middle-aged man among those who were gossiping about him and approached him. Those who were close to him shifted away from him in fear of offending Smith. It was obvious that they were all scared of him because of what had happened earlier. None of them dared to fight him because of his immense power and strength. If he could easily defeat young Master Alvin with a single strike, there was no way they were going to survive. “Please sir. Please forgive me. I shouldn't have supported young master Alvin. I mean Alvin, that disrespectful son of a bitch. Please forgive my Lord,” t

    “And if this isn't the ass licker,” Alvin said with a cold smile on his face as he approached Smith with a cold look on his face. Smith turned to him with a stern look on his face and his lips curled into smirk. “Ass licker? Coming from a man whose ass got swooped by my woman. You don't have the justification to mock me,” Smith said with a cold look on his face and Alvin looked up with an angry look on his face. “Are you talking to me?” He asked and Smith arched his eyebrows. “If I'm not talking to you, who else could I be referring to? You admit that you're weak and useless. I'm certain your father would be disappointed in his son when he finds out that his son was beaten by an ordinary woman,” he said with a cold look on his face. “How are you going to explain to your ancestors?” Smith asked and stroked his chin with a calm look on his face. “How dare you talk to me in that manner?”“Earlier, I thought I should spare your life but it seems you don't value it. I'm going to cut o

    “Why aren't you saying anything?” Smith asked in a calm tone as he stared at the spirit beast that was staring at him in shock and utter disbelief. “What do you want me to say? You've gotten past me in cultivation. It'll be useless to fight against you,” the spirit beast said nervously as Smith moved closer to it with a stern look on his face. “Useless to fight against you? No, it isn't useless. I guess you enjoyed the look on my face while I was struggling to fight against you earlier,” Smith asked in a cold tone as he stretched his hand at his sword which flew toward him magically. “Hmm,” Smith's lips curled into a dark smirk as he grabbed the sword midway and glared at the spirit beast which was shocked by his immense strength. “You haven't stabilized your cultivation power yet your power completely overshadows mine,” the spirit beast said in a trembling voice. “Yes. I guess that's the perk of being in the perfection stage of the Void Ascension Realm,” Smith said with a dark

    “The Ember Scales dragon spirit fruits,” the spirit beast muttered in a low tone as he stared at the spirit in Smith's hand. “How did you get this fruit?” The spirit beast asked in a low tone as he stared at Smith curiously. Smith, who was trying to buy time so he could recuperate and fight back with his last strength, looked up with a fierce and unyielding look on his face. “It was simple. I got it from the trio dragons,” Smith said and the spirit beast looked up instantly.“They must have given the fruits to you willingly because there is no way you could defeat them with their combined strength.”“I, myself, am wary of them because of their energy. What have you done to make them give you those fruits and not me?” The spirit beast asked in a jealous tone as he stared at Smith contemptuously. “I earned it and it was simple. I can tell you the tricks but you don't deserve to know,” Smith said in a calm tone despite feeling excruciating pain burned through his veins. “You’d bette

    “Who are you? Where are you? Come out and stop hiding,” Smith yelled with a cold look on his face as he looked around cautiously, trying to find the person whose voice spread across the place. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find the trace of the person despite feeling the presence of the person around him. “Since you won't come out of your hiding, I'll have to do it in the hard way,” he said with a cold look on his face as he walked toward the Golden box that was chained at the top of a mountain. The Golden box had an ancient crescent moon design on it. “That box must hold a lot of resources,” he thought to himself as he walked towards the mountain. Just as he attempted to near the tall mountain, he was repelled by a strong force that was filled with enormous dark energy. “This is bad,” he thought to himself and shook his head with a sigh as he staggered back to his feet and stared at the tall mountain before him. “How dare you go close to the BloodFall Sacred Mountain

    The leader of the dragons flew toward Smith happily and rubbed its head against Smith's head gently. “I guess I'm done here. I kept my promise,” he said with a cold look on his face and took a deep breath after he was done. “Hey. You don't have to do that,” Smith laughed heartily as the dragon licked his body vigorously. For whatever reason, Smith felt connected to the dragons in a way that he couldn't explain. “You're doing well,” he said with a cold smile on his face. The two dead that just got revived elevated from the floor and flapped their wings graciously. They flew around Smith happily and gratefully. Smith felt fulfilled and satisfied with their presence. He stayed with the dragon for a while and they had quite a fun time together. He left the midst of the dragons that were surrounding him protectively. He approached the trio who were lying dead on the floor. He squatted low and took out the rings on their fingers.“This must be the spatial ring that Sandra was talking

    The dragon looked up as soon as Smith finished his statement and stared at him with his fiery gaze longingly, hoping Smith was serious about his offer. Although some of the spirit beasts can't talk, they had the intelligence of a human so they could hear and understand human language. Smith, who had noticed the look, nodded his head affirmatively. “You have less than thirty seconds. If you don't finish them up, I won't hesitate to kill you afterward,” Smith said with a cold look on his face and the dragon looked up coldly.The trio looked up at Smith in despair. “What are you doing?”“You're going too far.”“Please stop this dragon. Why are you like this?” The trio shouted and cried out in pain as they struggled against the dragon. They kept cursing at Smith because Smith had ruined their plan. Although the dragon had entered the Berserk Mood earlier and its strength had been amplified, they would be able to survive and kill the dragon after dragging out for about twenty minutes.

    “What!” They gasped out in shock with their eyes widened in shock after seeing what had just happened. The atmosphere became stiff as though nothing existed around them. The three of them stared at Smith momentarily with a shock expression on his face, unable to tell how he managed to kill the dragon with a single strike. The last dragon shivered in fear as soon as its gaze met with Smith's gaze. It could tell that Smith wasn't an ordinary person to be able to take down his companion in a single streak. Although some spirit beasts and animals couldn't talk or take human form, they're all intelligent and have the natural survival instinct. It would be seeking death to attack Smith recklessly. Smith paid no attention to him and struggled with a cold look on his face.The dragon roared out angrily as it turned to the three weak humans trembling before it. “How did you do that?”“Aren't you just in the mid stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm?” “How could you kill it with ju

  • Chapter 272: Ember Scales Of The Dragon Fruit 2

    The enchanted forest stood a magnificent tree unlike any other. Its towering trunk was thick and gnarled, its sprawling branches covered in shimmering emerald leaves that glowed faintly under the moonlight. This was the Dragon’s Bounty, a tree of legend, said to bear the rarest of fruits—twin dragon fruits, each a marvel of nature.These fruits, known as the Ember Scales also known as the Dragon Fruit, resembled the hide of a slumbering dragon. Their outer skin was layered with hardened, overlapping scales in deep crimson and fiery gold, glistening as if embers pulsed beneath. The scales were tough to the touch, yet when peeled away, they revealed a luscious, glowing core of translucent nectar. The fruit’s flesh, infused with the energy of the tree’s ancient magic, shimmered like molten amber, releasing a sweet, intoxicating aroma that carried hints of wild honey and exotic spices.Legends spoke of those fortunate enough to taste the Ember Scales, claiming the fruit granted temporary
