Luis almost dropped the broom he was holding. Some time ago, he had finished cleaning the windows to eavesdrop on the conversation between Warrick and Clive.

No one would suspect him even if he swept close to Clive's room since he was a janitor.

Besides, he was quiet when he stepped so Warrick would not be disturbed by him. But somehow, Warrick could tell his whereabouts and intentions.

Inside the room, Clive was confused by Warrick's words. "The one outside is just the janitor. I hired him because he needed money for his sick granddaughter. His son is dead, so he's in charge."

Luis was relieved that Clive did not suspect him. Before applying for the job, he had faked his identity and paid a young girl to pretend to be his granddaughter.

During the interview, Clive saw Luis with his fake granddaughter and sympathized. That's how Luis ended up as a janitor for his office.

"I met his granddaughter. Don't think badly of him. He's just an old man working for the people he loves."

    Kaden was curious about the book Warrick mentioned, so he agreed to tell him about the magic potion. Moreover, Warrick offered to share his knowledge with the SDA members. "I don't know when exactly, but it was probably about five years ago. At that time, people in the black market were talking about a power-enhancing potion. The distributor is still a secret to this day." Warrick listened seriously. The only magic he had ever known was Lord Zegther's system. Surprisingly, he found other magical things after getting that. The first was Damian's glasses. Then, the magic potion on the black market. Somehow, he felt this was not a coincidence. The system seemed to encourage him to find such things. "The potion does have the effectiveness it claims," Kaden continued. "I bought some for my potential members. It was quite expensive. Five thousand dollars per bottle and the effects only last a month." Warrick hurriedly checked if there was such a potion in the Shop. However, the system

    The Lycine Ancestral Wilderness had never been visited by anyone since long ago because people believed there was a curse on it. As time passed, people became skeptical of such things. Still, no one wanted to visit the forest because of the wild animals. The people Emrys told to go there were actually afraid, but they forced themselves because he said he would forgive their mistakes. They were Rylan who came with four other people. Fortunately, they did not encounter any wild animals on the way to the cave. "I don't know what the boss was thinking telling us to come here," Evander held his rifle warily as he glanced around. He stood guard outside the cave along with Alonzo and Kian. "There must be something here," Kian replied calmly. Alonzo peeked at the cave. "If there is, it must be a bear or a tiger!" Shortly after entering the cave, Rylan and Frans made a surprising discovery. Judging by the many statues and other historical objects, they were sure the cave was a historical

    Warrick was on his way to the restaurant to meet Damian. He chose a taxi because he could not focus on driving while checking the system. [System Points: 51,000/65,000 (level 12)Skill Tokens: 30,100You need 14,000 SP to reach the next level.]System points were reduced because Warrick had spent some on potions and Spirit of the Warlord. He did not regret losing points for them. After all, what he had was more than enough. The rewards would probably help. But even if he did not level up, he could still get revenge by relying on the abilities he had.Warrick turned his attention away from the system when he heard the exciting news on the radio. It was the news he had been waiting for. "The video of former president Aaron Vathorne walking in public while naked went viral on social media. It has been confirmed that the man is not Aaron. He only has similar physical features. But many people don't believe it and keep talking about it. Aaron's side will take action against whoever spre

    Seeing Warrick break Theo's leg, everyone was stunned. Some of them had witnessed how Warrick defeated Amos. The rumors about him being weak were false. The rich had already recognized Warrick as physically strong. Because of that, the members of The Orchid Combine chose to harass Aelish and Damian to avoid a direct fight with Warrick. "I-If you act up one more time," Tristan took a step back as Warrick approached him. "I'll have those thugs kill Aelish!"Tonny was calling the thugs as a warning to Warrick. "We don't play games. With one order from us, your wife will die!" he threatened in a serious tone.But Warrick did not seem to care. Instead, he retorted, "You should at least hire a high-end assassin. Those thugs won't be able to touch my wife."Irritated at being belittled, Oscar grabbed Tonny's cell phone to give orders. "Kill Aelish at any cost! Don't think about what will happen next. I'll take full responsibility!"The sound of someone sprinting and his heavy breathing was

    Amos knew Aelish was in the penthouse. Since the door would not open, he had no choice but to break it down. Blade's bark was heard everywhere as soon as he stepped inside.Looking around, he asked, "Where's Warrick?"Aelish gave Blade the code to calm down. She had to know what Amos was coming for."He's not here. What is your business? I will tell him once he gets home.""I need to see him. Get him here right now!"Jill was prepared in case Amos raised his hand to Aelish. But from the start, Amos showed no sign of using his fists. It seemed like he had only come to meet Warrick. As such, he did not care about Aelish or Jill. "I can't do that," Aelish pointed at the door. "Come later if you want to see him."But Amos stayed where he was. "You can't read the situation. I need to see your husband right now because he's been making trouble with Sir Aaron!"Hearing that, Jill choked on her saliva and coughed in surprise. Before coming to Aelish, she had read the news about Aaron on the

    Brianna asked someone to take Malene away while she signaled Amos to enter the orphanage. The children hid and peeked to see him. They must have been wondering who the strange man was. "What's your business?" asked Brianna, her tone still calm. Amos needed time to answer. His attention was drawn to the twists and turns of the orphanage building. He hoped to find memories of his childhood but failed.No matter how hard he tried, the memories of him living in the orphanage still did not appear. All he remembered was he was about seven years old when he was freed from his abusive parents. After that, his memories became vague. Even the memory of Grace abusing him was not clear. He suspected that his memory loss was due to trauma. This made him hate Grace even more."I asked you a question," Brianna spoke up again because she was getting ignored by the man behind her. "If you don't have anything to say, you can leave."Amos quit to stare at the ceiling that was partially damaged by rai

    Amos was speechless for a few moments as he was shocked by Hardy's statement. All this time, he had thought of Aaron as his savior and trusted him more than anyone else.If he had not gone to the orphanage, he would have killed Hardy for accusing Aaron. His way of thinking had changed because of the letter.His memories had not fully returned. He would get a headache every time he tried to recollect. But there was one memory that came vividly to his mind.It was the moment Grace received a bite of cake from Amos while they were having a picnic. Although it had been a long time ago, a feeling of joy still filled Amos' heart when he recalled it."Manipulating my memory...?"Hardy nodded, slightly relieved as the pressure of Amos' dagger on his neck eased. "I don't know the details. But back then, Sir Aaron told me to implant false memories. I concocted a drug that messed with your mind.""It worked?""Not at first. While you were under the influence, I kept telling you that Grace used t

    "Aaron manipulated my memories," Amos chose to explain his background. "He used a drug that messed with my mind and implanted false memories. That's why I think of Grace as a bad person."Warrick had expected Aaron to brainwash Amos into hating his mother, so he was not surprised. "Do you believe my mom isn't a bad person now?""Yes. I went to the orphanage and found out that I was close to Grace. The effects of the drug made me unable to remember anything. But I believe she's not the person I thought she was."Amos handed the letter he had been holding to Warrick. Guilt was evident in his gaze. The trigger for Grace's death was Amos. That was an unchangeable fact. If Warrick got angry and threw him out, he promised he would not defend himself.However, Warrick digested every word in the letter calmly. The Legendary Patient title really helped him. His emotions were more stable so he could understand the situation with a cool head."What happened after this letter was written?" Amos

    Cassius could not finish his work in peace after learning that a mysterious man was interfering with the bridge rebuilding project. Panicked, he ordered Sky Vision to fire Harold."Did you do what I requested?" he asked his secretary.Emmerich nodded. "Yes, I've told people to take care of Harold. He will be responsible for the corruption of the project.""When will it be done? I want Harold on the news as soon as possible.""You have to be patient, sir. It's not just you who are involved with the project. Your people are working hard to eliminate evidence and make it all Harold's fault.""What about the mysterious man?""I'm sorry, sir. I haven't been able to trace his whereabouts. Even the Sky Vision workers don't know anything."Hearing that, Cassius' temper exploded.

    Sky Vision provided labor services to work on its projects. A qualified workforce also facilitated the rebuilding of the bridge.Chasing targets, they stay overnight at the construction site and often stay up late to complete the installation of the bridge structure. Tonight, they appeared to be taking a break.Tents were built there as their temporary sleeping quarters. They lit a campfire while eating dinner and chatting."Harold, you should ask Sky Vision to add more workers here. We're having trouble completing the bridge with the current number of workers," Clarence, the supervisor, ventured to speak up."Settle Mr. President's request quietly if you still want to live!" Harold snapped. He was the construction manager of Sky Vision, but he had sided with Cassius since a few months ago.The money that should have been used to increase the workforce was corrupted. No one dared to protest because the workers were afraid of Cassius.As a result, they were forced to work hard, which r

    Warrick regularly contacted the alliance to monitor their activities. But not seeing him for two weeks must have made them uneasy.Like Zayden, the members of The Orchid Combine also thought that Warrick had been reassured by power and had forgotten about his plans for revenge. That's how humans are.The alliance members must have heard that Warrick was only focused on work. Those who initially believed in him would slowly wonder if his determination had changed.That was why Warrick would meet Lacey, who was taking a significant role in the alliance's mission this time: spying on the Laureves family."I was surprised when you said you wanted to see me right now," Lacey welcomed Warrick to her mansion in an elite residential neighborhood. She frowned at his appearance. "Are you avoiding someone?"Warrick nodded. "As expected from the leader of a scammers group, you guessed my intentions correctly.

However, he only offers one stock prediction to attract clients back.Orionis Star was not yet officially in his hands, so he had to be careful if he did not want to lose money. He was willing to use his ability to spot potential investments to embarrass Zayden.His stepbrother had already proven to be a failure in solving the company's problems. This was a chance for him to show his skills."Announce that Orionis Star is cooperating with Stellar Investment Solutions!"At a meeting of the company's top brass, Warrick gave the absolute order. The news of the partnership would definitely attract the attention of potential clients."Is that okay?" Zayden asked skeptically.Warrick smiled. "SIS is limiting client acceptance indefinitely. People who want to use my company's services will be interested in the Orionis Star when the news comes out.""We should discuss this with father first.""No

    Everyone at CFT Entertainment had come to respect Aelish after Warrick officially became heir. But that was not the only contributing factor. Her success in I Want to Know also received a positive response.People initially dismissive of Aelish shut their mouths because her project did not end badly. They wondered why her movie got so many views."Now I know why! Warrick must have helped Aelish finance her project.""That makes sense. There are SIS ads in the movie, too.""I thought her project was successful because of her abilities, but it turns out her husband helped her.""She's just a former craft service for a movie crew. How did she manage to become a producer?"Some people in CFT secretly gathered around in the bathroom and talked about Aelish behind her back.

    Warrick summoned all the company's higher-ups to an emergency meeting. It infuriated Zayden to have his strategic error pointed out to them.What was annoying was that he could not protest, not because he was afraid of Warrick, but because his stepbrother was right. The higher-ups were even surprised that Warrick could find fault in their work.All this time, they thought Ernest's eldest son became a salesman because of his stupidity. His not-so-good college grades reinforced that.They wondered why Warrick had been hiding his abilities all this time. However, no one dared to ask because the atmosphere was tense."I'll offer you a solution," Warrick said, drawing the attention of everyone reading the mistakes explanation in their report.Zayden narrowed his eyes. "What solution do you have?""You guys know SIS is famous right now. I'm the one who made all the predictions for the stock increase."Everyone glanced at each other in shock. They knew that Warrick owned SIS, but many specul

    The next day, the servants told Warrick and Aelish that breakfast was ready. After what happened last night, Renata did not want to have breakfast with Warrick, but Ernest forced her to."Honey, eat this," Warrick placed a sandwich on Aelish's plate. He acted as if there was no one but his wife at the table, which irritated Lucy."Aren't you two going to apologize?" asked Lucy, glaring at Aelish. She was annoyed at having to share the main mansion with another woman. "There's still plenty of room here. As a good daughter-in-law, you should respect Renata!"Aelish frowned. "You also took Warrick's mother's room when there was plenty of room. Why can't I do the same?" she retorted sarcastically."The difference is that his mother's room is already empty, and the room you're occupying still has an owner!""Sir Ernest has already allowed us to stay in that room. I don't need to waste my time with you, who is not the absolute authority in this mansion."Being pointed out about her position
