The Nerelart family rented a five-star restaurant to hold their monthly meeting. All members had to attend without exception.Everyone seemed to be enjoying their dinner. But Iris could read the uneasy expressions of some family members."Scott, what are you thinking about?"The question made everyone stop eating. They shifted their gazes to Scott, who immediately showed a shocked face."T-Turns out you can look over my anxiety," Scott replied nervously, distressed by the attention. "I just got out of the hospital. You know Warrick beat me up at the party. I'm anxious at the thought of him coming after me."Iris narrowed her eyes, making Scott even more nervous. But she quickly put an end to the stressful atmosphere."Take it easy. That crazy man won't bother you. As long as you're loyal to the Nerelart family, you will be protected."With those words, everyone went back to eating. Scott thanked Iris and tried to show a happy expression.Iris held loyalty in high regard. She would not
Rise of the Useless Young Master 77. Armora Security Firm
Warrick got out of the car, signaling that he had chosen the river bridge as the arena. Twelve people were waiting for him with guns drawn.Inside the car, Aelish watched the situation through the rearview mirror. After training with Jill, she was able to handle the matter with great composure.There was no reason to fear; Warrick was stronger than her. The only one she had to be concerned about was herself as the enemy could be targeting her as well.The twelve were made up of six men and women sent by Armora, the top security firm in Radix that offered bodyguard services to a range of customers.Many famous people used Armora's services, such as celebrities. The Nerelart family's Emerald Bank also chose Armora as a partner.Armora was managed by Hendrix, a member of The Orchid Combine. His wealth was too small to be compared to the others.But he was able to join the elite group because he had many bodyguards. He often provided his company's services for free, so no one protested ab
Rise of the Useless Young Master 78. Word of Mouth
Stellar Investment Solutions has been active since last week. But Warrick never showed up officially to check on the condition of his company. He only got reports from his confidants.The Silent Shadow Bureau provided workers for SIS because not many wanted to work there due to its bad reputation in the past.Although Hugo did not ask for anything regarding his help, he benefited from being able to spy on SIS through the people he sent.Warrick was aware of that but unworried because he had no secrets to hide at SIS. A man in a neat suit greeted him and Aelish as soon as they arrived at the office."Thank you for welcoming us, Soren," Warrick thanked the man as he was led into a special room.Soren only gave a warm smile in return. He was the CEO appointed by Hugo to take care of SIS. Despite being moved to a different company, he did not object because of his commitment to the organization.Previously, he was a bigwig at a potential start-up. Without thinking twice, he left his job t
Rise of the Useless Young Master 79. Jill Becomes an Actress
Aelish could not follow Warrick anymore since she was busy with her work. She was truly becoming the movie producer she had always hoped to be. But Mathew handed her a difficult project.Web series about school love were trending in Radix these days. CFT Entertainment did not want to miss the trend. For fear of losing the momentum, the production process had to be done as quickly as possible.It would not produce good work because the editing was done in a hurry. However, Aelish could not protest because she knew her position.Some employees disliked her presence. Besides, she realized she needed to fight hard to manage such a big project."What is this?" Aelish frowned as she read the contract provided by Zoey, one of the aspiring actresses set to feature in her web series. "You're asking for an unreasonable fee!"Miles snickered. "It's a standard fee. Zoey has a lot of followers on social media.""Your web series will be famous if I star in it," Zoey spoke in a haughty tone. "Just q
Rise of the Useless Young Master 80. Sparked People's Interest
For days after the event, Scott's mind was troubled by Warrick's remarks. The food served by the five-star chef could not satisfy his lost appetite. To avoid being suspected of his unusual behavior, he chose to pretend to be ill.Since Iris had not contacted Scott, it meant Warrick was still keeping his mouth shut about the embezzlement. Scott wondered what Warrick wanted, but he was afraid of drawing attention if they met."I have no other choice. The others need to know about this!"Scott had not told his seven cousins yet, knowing they would panic and possibly make the wrong moves. But they were the only ones he could talk to.With the excuse of visiting Scott, they came to see him. He had pushed the servants from his room to prevent any leaks of information."Why did you tell us to come here?" Clarissa made a face of annoyance that she had to sacrifice her date for this emergency meeting.Brayden also showed his irritation through his tone. "I'll hit you in the head if we came for
Rise of the Useless Young Master 81. Another Useless Son
All the SIS positive news put Warrick in a good mood. That allowed him to cut the budget for promotion. In an instant, the employees who had been irritated with him became respectful."I'm already aware of your greatness!" Gage did not want to lose an opportunity to win Warrick during this dinner. "I believe you can take SIS in a better direction. You've worked hard."Salespeople, consultants, and financial advisors were invited to the dinner since they were regarded as outstanding workers. Before SIS became viral, they were the ones who put in a lot of effort to convince potential clients.Apart from appreciating their hard work, Warrick also wished to be close to the workers. His absence must have lowered their trust."You all are the ones who've been working hard," Warrick responded to Gage's praise humbly. "To celebrate the rise of our company, you can order anything!"The specially rented room was silent for a moment before it was filled with shouts of delight from the workers. F
Rise of the Useless Young Master 82. A Proper Visit
Damian let out a long sigh, staring at the dismissal letter given to him by HRD some time ago. There was no problem with his performance. The company was concerned about the number of people trying to attack him over the past two weeks.Those people would come to the restaurant every three days to harm Damian. Initially, his boss tolerated it because he claimed he was being harassed for no apparent reason.But the customer's comfort comes first. The assaults would continue to happen if Damian was employed, so he had to be fired."You got a bad expression on your face."Damian woke up from his reverie and found Warrick looking at him curiously. Having met in private to train in martial arts, this was their first public encounter.They usually relied on the phone to communicate. Warrick had sent several people from the SDA to protect Damian, so the attackers never hurt anyone."I'm a little upset about my job termination," Damian handed over his dismissal letter.Warrick read it briefly
Rise of the Useless Young Master 83. Lead the Investigation
"Madam, I have something important to tell you."The rich ladies turned to Grant, Iris's bodyguard. They were attending an event at a social organization to support education.Iris had warned her guards not to bother her. Seeing Grant dare to come to the auditorium meant something urgent was happening."Sorry I can't listen to the chairman's speech until the end," Iris said to her networks before leaving with Grant.The bodyguards were already waiting for her with irritated expressions. There were five people with them."What's wrong?"Grant quickly explained, "We got a report that Warrick came to the headquarters and met an auditor named Hayes.""You're bothering me just because of that?"Iris' sharp gaze made Grant's guts shrink a little. Although Iris was physically weaker than him, he could not overcome the threatening charisma she exuded."There's an important matter you should know. These five people are workers at the Emerald Bank that Warrick met. They suddenly came here and d

Delaney was nervous that she did not know Brigitta very well. Who knew Brigitta was planning to set her up? But her doubts slowly disappeared because Brigitta was not trying to make her make a big mistake.The car stopped at a deserted spot. Delaney realized it was time for her to speak."Are you really going to help me?" she asked hesitantly.Brigitta nodded. "I hope you can get others to participate as well. The more people who report, the better.""But why do you want to help me?""You must already know that my husband owns Flower Entertainment because it was reported," Aelish answered Delaney's question. "He could benefit if LRV gets involved in a scandal. Now that he's the heir to the Rauveron family, it's easy for him to settle this matter."Delaney already knew the news about Warrick. She was also surprised because she did not expect him to take Zayden's place. With Rauveron's influence, she might be able to escape the slavery contract.She spoke in a serious tone, "I've been r
122. They Have to Pay
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. He threw a work file in Emmerich's face."Get information about him in two weeks! If you fail, you're fired! Get out of here!"Obediently, Emmerich walked out of the president's office. He ignored the whispers of peop
121. Opposite Party's Spy
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
120. The Bridge Rebuilding
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. Cassius sent people to watch me, so I had to restrict my movements.""So that's why you

Warrick was able to use the abilities given by the system to solve the problems at Orionis Star. 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

118. Meet the Crew Again
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. They could not accept that someone who had always been despised could rise to the top.Jill had been listening to those people's unpleasant gossip from the start. She came to the bathroom to wash her hands, not expecting
117. Mission Accomplished
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
