Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 74: Strange Coincidence
“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
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 75: At Will
“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
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 77: The Meeting
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
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 78: Intimidating Aura
“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
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 79: Confrontation!
“KATIE,” August called as soon as he reached her position, making Katie raise a brow.She looks at the person in front of her with annoyance and dismay at the same time.‘First name basis? Without honorifics? Did he think that we’re close enough?’ Katie’s lips parted as those thoughts filled her mind. ‘Our age gap is huge! How rude!’August, on the other hand, didn’t mind at all. For him, respect is earned and not given just because they were older, or they were powerful in some organization.And seeing how Katie crossed her arms as she looked at August from head to toe— obviously mocking and judging him by her looks— tells him that s
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 80: Can You Trust Me This Time?
MEANWHILE, MYRA was on the rooftop, feeling the cold wind burying deep onto her skin. Her eyes were already red because of her nonstop crying, but still, tears continued falling down her cheeks.She didn’t leave even if Katie kicked her out of their department earlier after stealing the proposal from her.After all the things she endured just for the internship, she couldn’t leave that easily.'She just didn't steal my proposal, but failed me on my evaluation…' said Myra at the back of her mind as she heaved a sigh in dismay.It was her hard work! Even if she couldn't go back as a Remington Corporation intern, she should take the credit for her proposal, at least!
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 81: Emergency Meeting
MYRA WASN’T able to answer immediately. She stared at August for a long time, her lips parted as she was about to say something, only to shut it as fear consumed her. Since Samantha left them, she realized that even her own family could hurt her that much, so what more if it was strangers? She would be disappointed, but not shocked. “I… I don’t know,” Myra finally had the guts to say after a few seconds. She bowed her head in embarrassment because of two things. First, because she let her emotions overtake her, and second, despite August helping her earlier, she couldn’t trust him this time. She expected August to be mad, but she flinched a bit when she felt his hand patting her head. When she raised her head, she saw August smiling at her— genuinely. “Go home for now. You look tired,” said August with pure sincerity. His smile never left his lips, making Myra dumbfounded. However, as she doesn’t have the energy to argue anymore, she just nodded before walking onto the rooftop d
