Victor's heart shook. "Diana would definitely divorce me,"
As he was in his thoughts, the pos attendant's voice broke his train of thoughts, "Sir, invalid pin. Please try again.""Ah!" Victor recovered. Clearly he must have been overly anxious which was why he put an incorrect pin.Taking a deep breath, he typed his pin again and the pos machine began to process.Solomon urged the pos attendant, "Is it not done? Doctor Malik, you can call someone to kick this man out for wasting your time.""Ping! SUCCESSFUL""It's successful sir," The pos attendant looked up and said."Failed, I was right, this man can't. Wait what?" Solomon shook.This time Victor repeated the attendant's words with a smug smile, "It's successful. Don't you have ears to hear?"Solomon hurried to look at the pos machine and he could see the successful written big on the screen.He immediately shouted, "Which person's money did you steal? No wonder you looked so tattered when you came in. You must have stolen someone's money."Victor walked towards him angrily and gave him a slap, then gave him two more slaps in succession."This first slap is for claiming to be my daughter's father. The second one is for going after my wife and the third is for slandering me."The Doctor, seeing his job was done, quietly retreated with the pos attendant."How dare you slap me? Don't you know I'm the heir of the Titus family? Nobody dares slap me and go scott free." Solomon said angrily.Victor did not want to exchange any words with him so he simply warned, "If I count to three and you are still here, I'll beat you up and break your arms."Though Victor was not a fighter, handling somebody like Solomon was nothing to him.Of course, Solomon was scared and since he had no guards with him, he dared not confront Victor.As he left vip ward 5, he threatened, "Be prepared for my revenge, I'll grind your bones and feed you to my family's dogs."This was the first time Gina had seen Victor's side that retaliated against somebody so she was a bit scared.No matter how a person humiliated or even hit Victor, he would never act but today, he slapped Solomon Titus. She could see the ferocious look in his eyes when he did it so she just picked her bag and hurried out of the ward.Naturally, Victor wouldn't harm her no matter what she had done to him. Finally he looked at Diana and Diana looked back at him."Tell me, how did you get that money?" Diana asked. Although her voice was still cold, it was no longer like before.Victor frowned, "Are you also doubting me that I stole the money?"Diana did not reply but Victor could see she thought so in her eyes.He shook his head and walked out of the ward. When he was close to the door, he spoke,"If anything is needed for Amanda in the hospital, let me know. I'll transfer the money to you. Mind you, I didn't steal the money, I earned it legitimately." Then he left.Victor himself was disappointed that his own wife doubted him. He had planned to share the good news about him being the heir to the Parker family in the capital but after seeing her thoughts about him back then, he changed his mind.He thought it might be best if she remained unaware.Looking at himself, he really looked tattered and rough. He went to a shop and purchased some new clothes.After that, he went straight to book an hotel. He wanted to take a refreshing bath and relax himself a bit before planning to meet with Butler Kain. He was exhausted.Entering the hotel, he immediately told the hotel receptionist, "I want to book a room please."The receptionist looked at him from his feet to his head and again from his head to his feet.Then, she asked in disdain, "Are you sure you are in the right place? Look clearly, this is a five star hotel and not a place for a mad man."Victor was angry being addressed as a mad man. He understood he wasn't properly dressed right now but it was not the receptionist's business.All she had to do was take the money and arrange the room.He calmed himself down and tried his best to answer politely. "Yes, I know where I am and I know its a five star hotel. So i want a room."The receptionist sneered, "Look at yourself properly, do you think you can afford a room? I know your kind and I've seen your kind before. Poor men like you always want to take advantage and use tricks to come in here then rob people. Sadly I caught your scheme today."As she finished her words, she immediately shouted, "Guards, there is a thief here,"In no time, the guards had arrived and surrounded Victor.Victor sighed as he thought, "In just one day, three different people had thought of him as a thief.""I'm not a thief, i'm just here to book a room" He protested.However the security guards did not listen to his words. Of course, he knew they wouldn't listen but he at least wanted to try.The first thing the security guards was take the paper bag in his hand. After checking it, they saw it was just some cheap clothes, they threw it away and led Victor outside.Victor chose not to fight with them because he didn't want to cause trouble at the hotel. It was a five star hotel and he was sure the person who owned it was a powerful person.His first thought was to call Butler Kain once he was outside and explain the whole situation to him.Just then, as if Butler Kain read his mind, he received a text message, "Young master, the hotel is yours."Victor glanced around, not spotting anyone of particular note. However, he felt confident that Butler Kain knew everything that was going on right now. This was evident from the timely message he had sent.The guards nudged him aside, and the taller of the two, with a more authoritative air, remarked."Consider yourself lucky this time, since you haven't stolen anything. And you should be happy we are in a good and pleasant mood today, so we'll allow you to leave. Get out from here,"They carelessly tossed the paper bag with his purchased clothes onto him. The clothes fell off the bag on the ground. Victor said nothing but quickly picked the clothes and put them back in the bag.Just before he could think of what to do next, he received another message. It contained the hotel manager's complete details: phone number, full name, and other particulars. Surely he knew what he ought to do now.Observing the guards, Victor didn't heed their instruction to leave. Instead, he dialed the ma
Victor just sneered and walked into the hotel amidst their begging. As he passed by, he could seeing the arrogant receptionist who framed him being dragged out. Manager Zain looked at the two guards and receptionists on the ground begging outside, "You all are lucky my young master doesn't want to punish you more. If it were left to me, you would all be dead. Now get out of our premises."She signalled the new guards that had replaced the old ones to drag them away from the vicinity. Then she quickly walked into the hotel to meet Victor.A new receptionist had already replaced the old one. Manager Zain's secretary was capable so the secretary knew to replace those people immediately and luckily, WESTRIDGE HOTEL as the hotel was known as under Manager Zain's leadership always had backup workers incase one was sick or fired or any other reasons.Manager Zain was nervous at that moment. This was the first time she was meeting her young master and the owner of the hotel and yet her subor
"So are my parents alive?" Victor asked.Butler Kain replied sadly, "Your mother is gone but your father is still alive."Victor felt pained, "When did she pass away?""A few years ago. Your mother was a good woman. She was talented in several aspects, from business to games and even martial arts. Your father is talented but not as good as she was. "In fact in the history of the Parker family, your mother was the first female to go through the poverty and suffering training and she did so in this city as well which was the exact reason this city was chosen for you."Before she passed away, she had been visiting constantly, although you never knew." Butler Kain answered.Victor was surprised and he was surprised for two reasons. First, he thought his father was the one born in the Parker family not the other way round and secondly, he was surprised because Butler Kain said his mother had been visiting him constantly before she died.Although he really wanted to know more about her, h
While she was thinking, a young man walked arrogantly towards them, he kept playing with his car keys as if he wanted everybody to know he was rich.The young man was Silas, he was Gina's friend's son-in-law.Gina's friend seeing him immediately ran to hold and drag him over. "Gina, this is my son-in-law, Silas. Can you see him, he's so handsome and rich. He's here to help me get back my money."Gina, Victor's mother-in-law was a little jealous but she hid it very well and spoke, "Ah, Silas, such a charming young man. Splash, don't forget to tell your son-in-law to help me get my money too.""Of course, my son-in-law is capable, so he will definitely help you unlike some people's son-in-law." Mrs. Splash, Gina's friend answered.Gina was embarrassed. She knew Mrs. Splash was referring to her. This made her hate Victor more.Victor didn't seem to care and chose to let Silas act. If he can get it, then no trouble.Silas spoke to Mrs. Splash, "I've found out the person that is in charge
Boss Kent and his men froze hearing Victor's words. As for Victor, his mind kept getting flooded with information regarding Boss Kent's case. At first, the purpose was to buy time and settle his mother-in-law's issue but the prospect was starting to excite him as he knew more. He wondered, "Am i getting better at this abandoned skill?"Though he didn't know why he was able to detect Boss Kent's sickness and know how to cure it perfectly since he only had beginners knowledge in acupuncture but it didn't matter as long as he could do it."Are you joking," Boss Kent asked angrily.Victor said with a frown, "No, I'm not joking. You have to get naked. By the way, are you ashamed, I'm a man, you don't need to be ashamed."Boss Kent was pissed but he needed to follow Victor's words since Victor promised he could cure him."Before that, please tell one of your men to get me a pack of acupuncture needles." Victor said.Boss Kent replied, "Acupuncture needles!! I think there's one in my car.
"Of course," Victor replied with a nod as he extended his hand to accept the card from Boss Kent. After the exchange was complete, Victor began his journey back home. While it had been a relatively uneventful day, using his acupuncture skills to aid Boss Kent had sapped a considerable amount of his energy. All he craved at this moment was some well deserved rest. However, he was well aware of the pressing need to relieve his wife, who was currently at the hospital caring for their daughter, Amanda. Yet, as he approached the hospital, an entirely unexpected drama awaited him. As he entered, Gina, his mother in law, bombarded him with a barrage of questions. "What is your relationship with Boss Kent? Why are you associating with those shady individuals and bad people? Do you want to put our family in danger?" Gina continued her interrogation, and even Diana, his wife, turned her gaze toward him, silently demanding answers. Victor, exhausted and impatient, offered a terse response
The Titus group, a business entity owned and operated by the Titus family, held significant sway within its industry. As the designated heir of the Titus family, Solomon wielded considerable influence within the organization. This influence extended to other businesses, such as the small electronics company where Diana was employed. Due to the potential repercussions of offending the Titus family, the company was extremely cautious not to cross them. If Solomon issued any directives to them, they would unquestionably comply and also use such opportunity to curry favour.At Victor's current stage, the Titus family did not pose an immediate threat to him. However, if he considered engaging with them in any way, he had to prioritize the safety of his own family. It's a common strategy that when one's adversaries cannot directly challenge them, they might target the individual's vulnerabilities. In Victor's case, his family was his most significant vulnerability, and safeguarding the
When Victor emerged from the hospital, he found Martin Davis standing by a luxurious Rolls Royce, ready to whisk him away. Victor climbed into the sleek vehicle, and they set off towards a hotel where he could quickly transform his appearance. In no time, he donned a striking white suit, adorned a resplendent golden mask, and equipped himself with a voice changer, all part of his elaborate disguise.Although Martin had a chauffeur at his disposal, he personally took the wheel, steering Victor towards their destination: Evo Electronics.Upon arrival, Jordan Stone, the owner and boss of Evo Electronics, awaited their arrival just outside the entrance, extending a cordial greeting. "Hello, Mr. Davis," he nodded in acknowledgement.Jordan took the lead, guiding them toward his office with a sense of urgency in his steps. As they made their way, Victor couldn't help but overhear hushed conversations among Evo Electronics's workers."Have you heard the latest gossip? The boss asked Diana
At that moment, it was as if his roar was that of a lion as a gust of wind spread everywhere sending John 1 retreating.Victor closed his eyes as a transformation began to take place in his body as a translucent light covered his body whole.This meant one thing, he was breaking through. Naturally, people's breakthrough were normal and there were no many special things to accompany their breakthrough but it was different for Victor. Victor was a special person and as such some of his cultivation breakthroughs were very special and happened with some special events or elements.John 1 was quick to realise this and immediately rushed to attack Victor but the same way he moved forward, he was blown back almost immediately, there was nothing he could do to stop Victor's breakthrough.John 1 looked at Michael and his two brothers, in the next moment, he appeared there with the quickest speed. He wanted them to end Michael at least before Victor broke through totally.His arrival there was
Victor directed his gaze towards Michael and expressed, "I may not possess extensive knowledge about the roar of a lion, but based on what i have seen you do, I'm willing to give it a shot and see what I can do." Observing Victor's willingness, Michael nodded in agreement.In the ensuing moment, Victor let out a resounding roar, its intensity heightened by the surge of his spiritual energy. While not matching the sheer potency of Michael's lion like roar, Victor's ordinary roar possessed enough force to unsettle those who had encircled them.As the men staggered to the ground, momentarily disoriented, Victor and Michael seized the opportunity to advance swiftly, unleashing a barrage of powerful and precise strikes in their coordinated assault.Michael's thunderous lion roar possessed the formidable capability to render the less resilient individuals unconscious or induce bleeding from their ears and various facial regions. In contrast, Victor's roar, though less overwhelming, had a
In concurrence, Victor made the decision to return to their lodging, and this time, Linda accompanied him, her tenacious nature compelling her to follow. Victor acknowledged that their current hotel, where they had been residing, would inevitably be discovered, but despite this awareness, he opted to revisit the place.While Victor possessed the ability to conceal himself effortlessly—dispatching Michael to the Wilston family and directing Linda to her home, and subsequently altering his appearance with the chameleon mask—he found this approach too straightforward. His desire extended beyond mere evasion; he aimed to assert dominance and subjugate the prominent families of Palue under his control.Upon arriving at the hotel, Victor promptly retired to his room, while Michael and Linda also opted for accommodation. Battling fatigue, Victor succumbed to the need for rest, dozing off for about thirty minutes. However, his tranquility was abruptly disrupted by a knock on his door.Risi
After the video concluded, the security guard interrogating Victor asked, "Given the undeniable evidence, what is your response now?"Victor chuckled, as if finding amusement in a jest, and retorted, "Evidence? Are you referring to the fabricated lies and concoted falsehoods?"Rising from his seat with an apparent intent to depart, Victor's movement triggered a swift response from the surrounding security guards, who promptly brandished their firearms and aimed them at him. The questioning guard pressed on, "Why did you take the life of the mayor's son?" He persisted, adding, "The mayor is en route, and answers are imperative."Of course, Victor was not afraid of the mayor but he didn't want to wait here to see the mayor, he wanted to leave and see how deep Wayne Lois's game could be. Besides, people would never believe the evidence was fake and him escaping was another proof to them but being the person who had a feud with the Lois family, he understood so much.In the next moment,
Victor and Malik swiftly refreshed themselves before making their way to an upscale boutique to acquire some luxurious clothing.Exiting the boutique, as they prepared to hail a taxi, a black car abruptly pulled up in front of them, halting with a screech. Emerging from the vehicle was none other than Linda, the daughter of Samuel.Victor clearly surprised to see her here immediately, "What are you doing here?"Linda's smile widened in response, and she shared, "I had a hunch that you were planning to make an unexpected entrance at the Lois family's gathering. Naturally, I wanted to be a part of the festivities."Victor, feigning innocence, narrowed his eyes and played dumb, saying, "I have no idea what you're referring to. Michael and I are just here for some casual shopping."Linda deftly seized the invitation from Victor's pocket, a swift movement that caught him off guard, revealing his lack of anticipation. Her hands moved with a purpose, extracting the card with nimble precisio
Victor drew in a profound breath, affirming his consent with a nod. The swift pace of preparations for the ceremony caught Malik and Michael off guard, yet not entirely unexpected. The duo found themselves taken aback by this sudden turn of events, but deep down, they acknowledged that Victor's exceptional nature and innate ability to command attention and dominate were ever present, ensuring his influence wherever he ventured.The ceremony unfolded with simplicity, progressing seamlessly. Following its conclusion, Victor convened a meeting with Jonathan and the respected elders.In addressing the assembly, Victor articulated, "Primarily, I wish to clarify my reluctance to assume the role of the Wilston family head. Although I may hold the position nominally, I am committed to entrusting Jonathan with the overarching responsibilities.""He will retain authority over day to day matters, exercising decision making autonomy, except in cases of utmost significance."Jonathan found himsel
A hush fell over the meeting hall as all eyes focused on Jonathan. The anticipation lingered before he addressed the assembly, pondering aloud, "Do you think he should try if he could inherit it?"The one eyed elder took a thoughtful pause before voicing his reservations, "He doesn't share our lineage. It contradicts our longstanding traditions."In response, Jonathan interjected, offering a counterpoint, "The previous leader wasn't a Wilston by birth, yet her influence is the cornerstone of our current knowledge. Without her, the Wilston family was just a struggling traditional medical family."The one eyed elder lapsed into thoughtful silence before breaking it after a minute, asking, "To what extent are you acquainted with his influence?"Jonathan furrowed his brow, reflecting on the matter. "It's hard to gauge precisely, but during the auction, his two companions were very young and both were at the peak of the Noble realm, displayed a clear hierarchy with him.""Their actions ind
"Indeed, he's not dumb," remarked Jonathan. He paused briefly before delving further into the matter, explaining,"Yet, his inability to speak seems to be rooted in psychological challenges. It's likely that some stimuli connected to his past experiences might serve as a catalyst for him to verbalize. The specifics remain uncertain, though."Victor acknowledged the information with a nod, expressing his gratitude, "Alright, thank you for shedding light on this."Jonathan expressed regret, stating, "I apologize for not being able to assist you with any of your requests."In response, Victor responded with a reassuring smile and said, "No worries, it's perfectly fine."Jonathan expressed his commitment, "I will ngage in a conversation with the elders, attempting to persuade them to allow your friend to learn pill making and traditional medicine.""Thank you. By the way, you mentioned your former leader is still alive. How did you come by this information since you haven't seen her in a
"I am Garvin, serving as the head of the security guards and chief guardian for the esteemed Wilston family," declared the commanding figure who led the men that surrounded Victor, Michael, and Malik. He strode ahead, the trio trailing behind, until he halted abruptly. Raising his hand, Garvin gestured and executed a series of signals. In an instant, the panoramic view for Victor, Malik, and Michael underwent a dramatic transformation.Gone were the towering mountains and dense bushes that previously filled their view. In their place stood an expansive compound adorned with distinct villas, each exuding an ancient ambiance that added a unique character to the surroundings. It was as if they were transported to a different era.Infacr, the Wilston family functioned as a self contained community, and as Garvin, the head of the Wilston family's guards, guided Victor, Michael, and Malik through the vast Wilston family compound, he took the chance to show and acquaint them with various ar
