Rise of the Useless Young Master 84. Diamond in Trash
The first episode of the web series I Want to Know has finished filming. Through her performance, Jill won over the skeptics and earned their admiration. Due to schedule limitations, the filming resumed without a long break.Aelish believed the production process would continue well. But suddenly, Jane came to the set with three of her friends."I can't believe Dad made you a producer," Jane scanned the set and laughed loudly. "Who are these people? I don't know any of them!"The originally cheerful atmosphere turned awkward with Jane's arrival. They realized this project was only being done by ordinary people because of the limited budget.Even the male lead, Dashiell, had only featured in three films as an extra. No one wanted to take a role in Aelish's project even though she had offered money.As a result, only unknown actors and actresses were willing to accept Aelish's offer. It was clear that Mathew intended to humiliate her by not providing adequate support."It's good to see
Rise of the Useless Young Master 85. Consequences of Betraying
Jane halted her steps and fixed her gaze on Warrick's approach. Even after a month had passed, her worry remained the same. Someone told her that Warrick was not there, so she went to the set to make fun of Aelish."What's wrong with you?" asked Brigitta, confused. "Are you afraid of that crazy man? I told you that my family will help you if he bothers you again!""For now, let's go and not look at him!""I won't."Brigitta spread her arms in front of Warrick, blocking his path. "Apologize to my friend! You're a loser for scaring a girl."The action caught the attention of the film crew. They had not resumed filming yet because they had to retouch the actors' make-up.Aelish hurriedly came up to Warrick to avoid chaos. "Please don't make trouble," she said as she gently pushed Brigitta away."Tell that to your husband!" Brigitta growled, glaring at Warrick."He didn't do anything. Everyone can see that you're the one looking for trouble first.""I'm not talking about the present. Who
Rise of the Useless Young Master 86. No Reward
The Emerald Bank embezzlement case was a hot topic among the rich, including the Laureves. The whole family was celebrating Lucy's birthday. Since Zayden was her husband, the Rauverons were invited to the private event."I heard the Orionis Star is in a bad situation," Wylie did not discuss the Emerald Bank like the others.Zayden had been trained to keep a straight face in public. When everyone at the table looked at him, he gave them a nice smile."SIS is a new rival for my company. But business is like that, right? Like LRV and CFT competing in the entertainment field. LRV has remained consistent with its strong influence. Orionis Star has a good reputation for a long time, so the current problems will quickly pass.""Dad, why discuss work on my birthday?" Lucy pouted, hugging Zayden's arm. Her gaze fell on Brigitta, who was enjoying some cake. "I hear Brigitta has something important to say to all of us."Brigitta stopped putting a piece of cake into her mouth. There were five oth
Rise of the Useless Young Master 87. On Your Side
Warrick was dumbfounded by the love percentage Iris had for him. Then, he turned to Grant, who was still looking at him resentfully.The system revealed that Grant's love percentage reached 30%, which was strange.For people new to Warrick, their love percentage was usually neutral or minus because of the bad rumors about him. He was sure he had never met Grant before.But Grant's Love Detector results indicated that he had been watching Warrick for a certain time. The rumors out there had no effect on him."You didn't come here as enemies, huh?" Warrick finally spoke after done with his surprise.Since Iris mentioned Grace's name, the two of them seemed to know each other in the past. But Warrick knew nothing because his mother rarely talked about her friends.Always busy with work and other things, Grace preferred to listen to her son's stories when she had free time."I think I'll die first before I can avenge Grace," Iris closed her eyes and caught her breath, trying hard not to g

"Well, you're ready!"Damian looked at his reflection in the mirror. As Warrick had said, Lacey could change his appearance with makeup.His hairstyle and color were changed to brown with a neat cut. Lacey made a fake burn scar on the left side of his face, giving the impression he was a loyal bodyguard ready to fight fire for his master.He was not allowed to wear glasses because the people of The Orchid Combine might have remembered it. His eye color was also changed to green.Without the glasses, it was hard for him to trust people. But he had to take them off for his safety. They would only be taken out when necessary."Thank you for helping me," Damian said as he got up from the chair. "I'm going to Sky Vision now."Lacey just smiled and waved goodbye to Damian's departure. Just like him, she needed to go too. Last night, Warrick had suddenly changed the task given to her.He was originally assigned to spy on the Nerelart family members to get evidence of their crimes. Surprising
Rise of the Useless Young Master 89. New Rules
SIS was already on top thanks to its accurate stock predictions. If Warrick wanted to make his company even more viral, he would have to create an even bigger sensation.What should he do? He could not possibly make a scandal to push SIS known throughout Radix.But there was no quicker way to get famous than involved in a scandal. Warrick did not want to just let go of Goddess Axara's gift.The new business would add to his wealth and reputation. How could he pass that up?"Is there a problem, Sir?" Soren asked with concern as Warrick's expression looked worse than before.Warrick shook his head and refocused on the document he was reading. It was a report about a spike in client sign-ups.Too many had come to SIS overwhelming the consultants and financial advisors. The sales team had also been directed not to take on any new clients until a certain time."You can hire more employees to solve this problem," Soren suggested, thinking Warrick had a headache about that.He continued, "We
Rise of the Useless Young Master 90. New Allies
Warrick could not possibly stare at all the members of Nerelart at once. They might consider him impolite. So, he made eye contact with them as naturally as possible.Everyone looked at Warrick with different expressions, but mostly uncertainty. It was true that they did not want to be tied up with The Orchid Combine anymore, but they wanted a useful alliance like Hugo.[Ding!][Goddess Axara gives you another quest: Influence the Nerelart family to accept you as an alliance.Reward: 5% of Emerald Bank shares.Penalty: None.]From the quest, Warrick was even more convinced by his assumption that not all Nerelart family members accepted him. He had bought Emerald Bank shares using Foresee Potential Investment.But getting another 5% was a big advantage. His conversation with Iris might be long or short depending on the situation, so he had to communicate well to improve his image."How about I introduce my family members first?" Iris thought Warrick did not know all the Nerelart family
Rise of the Useless Young Master 91. An Unexpected Guest
Aelish would take the day off to attend the Nerelart family party. It was the 60th anniversary of the Emerald Bank. The crew and actors were also tired from working non-stop for the past few days, so she decided to give them a break.Just like yesterday, Brigitta was on set and acted like she was close to the crew. She even helped the actors practice."There's really no schedule tomorrow?" she asked as she walked up to Aelish."Yeah, we're taking the whole day off," Aelish replied nonchalantly. Warrick told her to let Brigitta spy on her."What are you going to do tomorrow?" Brigitta tried to pry for more information.Aelish had yet to guess what would happen at the party. But since Warrick did not ask her to send Brigitta away, that meant it was fine if she revealed a bit of their activities."I'll come to the Emerald Bank's party. Since you're part of the Laureves family, you should get an invitation too."Hearing that, Brigitta's face turned gloomy. Tomorrow, Iris would be celebrat

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

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
