IwaswiththestarsI admit my story isn't perfect. I'm still learning and I always try to improve on my stories, especially for my pacing, so I'm glad that someone's reading this book. Thank you! There are so many conflicts happening right now, but I swear, all of them would be answered as things unfold. Also, this story would have 300 to 400 chapters, I think. Again, thank you for the warm support,! I appreciate it all. <3

MEANWHILE, at the Wellington’s mansion, Francis and Benjamin Anderson, the eldest son of the Anderson Corporation, and would also be the next-in-line heir, sat on the couch as they held their beer mugs, sipping on it from time to time.They were having the time of their lives at Francis’ mini-bar, which serves as a place where they could be wasted altogether, and at the same time, a meeting place where they talk about their wicked plans and harsh gossip.“I should have been there, man!” Benjamin, who was still sober yet acted like he was drunk already, leaned on the couch as he grimaced. “I can’t believe I missed that remarkable moment at the party. Tch.”Benjamin grunted. No matter how many times he watched the CCTV camera where Bruce’s havoc could be seen, he knew that it would give him a different feeling if only he was watching the scene personally.“Stop complaining already. It’s done.” Francis shook his head and drank the remaining beer in his mug.It seems like the beer doesn’t

AS JAKE heard what Bruce had said, his remaining patience was pushed to its limits. He pulled Bruce in the collar, nearer than before, as he gritted his teeth. He wanted to punch his son until he understood what was happening and came back to his senses.“You imbecile, little man…” said Jake in a disappointed and low tone as his gaze turned onto the two bodyguards still holding him. “Bring him to my other room.”“Jake!”Nicole grunted as she was about to approach Jake so she could try persuading him, but when Jake gave her his intense, deadly look, she stopped moving. Her feet felt like it was frozen to the floor.“He’s our son…” Nicole reminded him in a weak tone, almost whispering. “I don’t know what you’ll do to him, but he’s our only son!”Jake didn’t speak. Nor the coldness in his eyes changed despite what she said.The bodyguards started to pull Bruce, who didn’t fight back anymore, to the second floor. His forehead was sweating, the same as his palms. He knew what might happ

THE MOMENT Bruce went out of the room with Trance supporting him, Nicole suddenly stood up as she was waiting for her son. She didn’t even pay attention to Jake earlier, even if he told her to come with him.In response, Jake even kicked on the wall as he walked towards his office with his hands clenched in irritation.Samantha was with Nicole as she couldn’t help but worry about Bruce. Nicole tried to push her away earlier, but she didn’t even budge. She believes that it’s her right to worry as she was Bruce’s future wife.“Bruce!” called Nicole with worry. That emotion also became evident on her face as she stared at her son, looking pitiful and weak. Nicole immediately went to Bruce, and the first thing she noticed was the sweat covering his whole body, and it even soaked the suit he was wearing.Her gaze flickered from different parts of Bruce’s body, and sighed in relief as she noticed that there were no wounds on his body, but he was trembling so badly. She could feel it as Bru

“ARE YOU ready, August?” asked Sapphire as she was standing in front of the large vertical mirror. Staring at her reflection, she adored herself, wore a red shirt with a white button in the middle, and a red pencil skirt, partnered with red stilettos that always make a sound every time she walked. “I am,” August answered as he wore a simple black shirt with long sleeves, and pants partnered with black leather shoes. “I prepared myself so I would not disappoint father.” “As you should,” answered Sapphire as she let out a chuckle. Unlike Sapphire, who was already known by everyone as a part of the Remington family, August couldn’t wear an expensive suit as it would definitely blow his cover. No one would believe that he already became instant rich just by working for the Remington Corporation, anyway. After Charles scolded him before as he immediately knew that it was August on the video, Charles had him grounded in the house. He learned everything about the Remington Corporation in

“SIR.” August, as soon as he got back to his senses, immediately stood up and extended his hand to the old man. “It was nice to meet you here.”The man in front of him was no other than Jake Sandoval— Someone he didn’t expect to meet, especially to approach him, in his lifetime.He was wearing a black business suit, making August have the conclusion that he had just come out from a business meeting.“I can say the same thing,” said Jake as he took August’s hand, and shook their hands together.August smiled, but lightly grimaced as he felt a sudden pain on his hand when Jake gripped it tighter than usual like he was trying to intimidate him at this moment.At this point, he was glad that Jake had the same aura as Charles, so he wasn’t that nervous.Or at least, it doesn’t show for now.“Can I sit here?” Jake asked again as he pointed at the vacant seat in front of August. “I also wanted to ask you about something.”Jake’s voice wasn't that loud, but his words thundered onto August’s h
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 76: Resemblance
AS AUGUST went back to the Remington Corporation, specifically to the CEO's office where he works, he couldn't help but feel the rapid heartbeat in his chest. It was insane, and he didn’t think it would stop for a while now.He breathed heavily as both his hands landed on the table, while his head was directed downward. Dealing with Jake Sandoval was no joke. With that fierce look in his eyes during his departure, August knew that this would not be the end of everything.Rather, it's a start of a bigger mess he didn’t sign up for.“Fuck. Where did I get the guts to do that?” August asked himself as he sat on the working chair and made it turn repeatedly, hoping that the dizziness would calm down his nerves.However, as he remembered how Jake looked at him like he was humiliated, August couldn't help but feel proud of himself. He stepped his feet on the floor to stop the chair from turning.At least, he wasn't as pathetic as before. He isn't easily deceived. He knew how to fight for

OF COURSE, Myra wouldn’t go into a war without having the proper knowledge and guns to use. She knew August Fordman was— even from the start.As she watched the viral video about August, Bruce, and Samantha, she didn’t hesitate to believe August’s claims.Maybe the first reason was that she had a deep hatred for Samantha for so long, but the second reason is that… she knew Samantha’s desire more than anyone.If Samantha, her sister, abandoned August to be with Bruce, she won’t be shocked. Samnatha’s desire to live in luxury made her a bad person. She abandoned the Evergreen family for the sake of her dreams.“Sister?” August asked. His head tilted to the side in confusion.He got weirded out as every second passed. Samantha told him before that she was an only child. She also told him that she was working hard because of her family. That’s also the reason why he fell in love with Samantha— but it turned out to be a lie.He breathed heavily as the familiar pang of pain traveled onto hi

“MISS WESTMANCER,” Charles greeted in an authoritative tone, but confusion was also evident on his face. “Why are you here? You have another project to take care of, am I right?”“Yes, sir,” Katie nodded as she immediately went in front and quickly set up the PowerPoint. “I apologize for my tardiness. This will never happen again.”Katie Westmancer is the project manager of the Remington Corporation’s strategy department and Myra’s boss. She’s a forty-two-year-old woman who looked mischievous and pretentious at the same time.One of the reasons why August didn’t choose the Strategy Department in the first place was because of her. He wouldn’t get a rock and hammer it into his head.&n
