"Hey, damn it! Who do you think you are to sue me?" Jonathan fumed with his fists clenched tightly. The man felt so fiery and offended by everything Marco had said to Kevin. He felt more intelligent than the two men before him and could do anything to scare him.

With a frowning face and pouting lips, Jonathan looked at Marco and snapped at him, "You're the one I'm going to sue for interfering and getting in the way of other people's work. You're the one who's going to jail! You're so ignorant!"

"Besides, you've already spent much money just to save him. I'm sure you'll regret it and sell the building back. And when that happens, I'll laugh at you because I know this building will only sell for a pittance!" Jonathan shouted, trying to make Marco feel inferior.

However, Marco was so relaxed. He didn't show any hesitation or anything. His face was flat and unpredictable. "That will never happen. That prophecy of yours is just a hoax. Do you want to bet on it?"

Marco then smiled a small s

    "Hey, do you know about the charity party in a week?" asked a woman with her hair tied up high. She was holding a coffee cup with a handbag on the other side. The woman was sitting on a chair close to the exit of a cafe.Another woman who came with her also sat in the same place. Her hair was blonde with a short shoulder-length cut. She lifted her latte before saying, "Oh yeah, I heard that. It's said that many young businessmen have just joined." When she said that, the two women suddenly lit up. Both of them laughed happily. "Duh, I so want to come there. But I don't have an invitation. I'm not rich enough." The woman with black hair shook her head dramatically, slightly laughing at her fate.The blonde woman said, "Yeah, I want to go there too. Who knows, we could find a future husband. We don't have to work as hard as we do now. We might be able to hook up with one of the big young businessmen there."The chatter about the charity ball was not limited to the two young women. Tal

    After watching Laura's lover leave, Marco sat back in his chair quietly. He didn't want to interfere and add to the problem by caring for other people's actions. To be honest, he didn't care. He was just preventing things from getting worse.But as it turned out, the woman Marco had helped sat beside him without permission. The woman lowered her head so that her black hair hung slightly forward. She rubbed her face roughly and took a strong breath. "I've worked hard to make it like it is now!" she complained with her eyes closed.Marco didn't want to care and only glanced at her. However, the woman continued to babble in a frustrated tone. "He was just an ordinary student, and I worked so that he could continue his studies. I was determined to make him successful, and he promised to marry me when he did. I was very patient and always supported him. But look what he's done now!"The woman clenched her fists and stared vengefully in the direction her former lover had gone. "He just left

    Laura was completely out of her mind. Her head was spinning, and her brain was suddenly empty. She looked at her wardrobe, which was already a mess, as she took everything out. All the best clothes she had were shirts and pants for work. And now, it was the day she had to go and prove herself if she could make it to the prestigious charity ball."What should I do?" she muttered, rubbing her head. Laura had tried borrowing dresses from her friends and neighbors. However, most of them refused to help because they were worried that Laura would steal them. And some only had simple dresses that wouldn't be suitable for such a big event.Laura then grabbed the only dress she had. It was jet black with a floral accent on the chest. She tried it on in front of the mirror and let out a long sigh. "No, this dress is too old-fashioned for me to wear."She then bit her lip with great anxiety. Looking towards her desk, she found some brooches that she would use to change the shape of the dress a l

    Laura swallowed hard, looked at Marco and said, "Yes, I know that. But-" Laura paused and looked out the window. So many reporters and cameras lined the steps leading up to the museum. She sighed heavily. "This is the first time I've ever been to an event this lavish and big."Laura then licked her lips, which suddenly felt dry. She felt so nervous and excited at the same time. "But, there's no denying that I also feel proud to be here. I can prove that I'm capable." She forced a smile at the end to make sure that she could get through this and put her ex-boyfriend to shame.Marco heard all of Laura's words and gave a small nod. He exited the car and met Laura at the end of the stairs. Marco extended his hand towards Laura, which she immediately greeted with a small smile. They held hands as they walked up the stairs of the museum. At that moment, camera flashes rained down on the two of them, who looked so harmonious in their luxurious matching outfits.At the main door, two guards w

    Alexa couldn't help but stare with envy and spite at Laura's dress. She loved expensive and luxurious things, and Laura's dress was a limited edition dress that was very difficult to obtain. She couldn't even afford it, as it was a total drain on her bank account. Freedy's boutique does not sell its latest collection cheaply. Only five pieces are made for a special year like this.Moreover, Freedy's boutique is also a famous boutique that only caters to the upper crust. Alexa was even turned down when she made her first reservation. She could only stare at the dress from the catalogue that had just been released two days ago. And now, in front of her eyes, a poor woman whom her lover discarded comes with the dress she so coveted. Aleexa would never believe it. She couldn't afford it, let alone a lowly woman like Laura.Alexa snorted, and Marco's words really upset her. "You must be lying. That dress is a fake. There's no way you can afford it. It's worth five million dollars!"When sh

    Aleexa glared with a cloudy face. "Huh? Did you say it was real?" she asked mockingly. The woman clucked and pointed at Laura with her bright red nail art. "I'll tell ya, you certainly don't know this woman is feeble! Of course, she's got a man who's just as poor."Aleexa snorted and chuckled. "So, there's no way that this woman has a real dress. In this world, there are tons of counterfeits, and they can get them very easily! They want recognition." With narrowed eyes, Aleexa glanced at Laura. This time, her lips polished with blood-red lipstick pouted again, "I think you should check your eyes well enough to think that this woman has the real thing."Would Aleexa never show defeat in front of Laura, who was not on her level? She was determined to prove to people that she was right. And Laura, who was a fraud, deserved to be publicly humiliated.Jessica let out a short sigh. The woman rolled her eyes in disgust. "Yes, that means you need to study better. Your ability to judge genuine

    Alexa glared at Jessica's words, which made no sense to her. So, she quickly did the same thing, but in a very rough way. She pulled Laura's body and turned her over to see the details of the back of the dress. When the red thread bearing the Freedy Boutique was visible to her, she covered her mouth in disbelief. The dress was the real thing and not a copy.Laura, for her part, was upset and unhappy with Aleexa's rude treatment of her. Holding back her anger, Laura pushed Aleexa away from her. "You're so rude!"Aleexa was still speechless despite being yelled at by Laura. When the woman came to her senses, she shook her head quickly. She pointed at Laura's face and exclaimed, "You! That can't be! You must have stolen it, right? Or, you must have rented it because I'm sure you couldn't afford that dress with your own money!"Jessica snorted. She turned to Natta and sneered. Both rolled their eyes in disgust as they said, "Shut that mouth of yours. Even if he rented it, he would have pa

    "Why are you interfering? You have nothing to do with Sky, so you'd better get out of the way!" shouted Aleexa, realising that her boyfriend was being cornered. She felt both angry and offended, as they were now the centre of attention among the guests.Alexa glared at the people who were deliberately trying to cause her trouble. "Watch what you say, or I'll tear you apart until you can't talk anymore. Especially you!" Aleexa pointed specifically at Laura, who was still staring at her angrily.Jessica snorted, then turned and waved at the two security guards at the door. Without a word, the two security guards walked quickly over to her.Once in front of Jessica, the two security guards asked, "Good evening, Miss. Is there something disturbing?" he asked politely.Jessica casually pointed at Sky and Aleexa in turn. "Those two are making a mess here." Her face looked casual as she said this, unlike Aleexa, who immediately glared when she heard it.Aleexa stomped her foot in annoyance.

    The long journey that took sixty minutes ended with Robert returning to the starting point of Marco's house. The man had been blindfolded and could see the sunlight illuminating the courtyard. Robert let out a long sigh. He stood by the door, where Marco sat on the sofa quietly, before walking in and sitting in front of Marco like last night when they first met."Thank you very much," Robert said sincerely. The man took a deep breath and looked calmly at Marco. "Thank you so much for helping Anna. And you take it easy, whatever you want, tell me. I will give it to you as a gift," Robert added solemnly. To him, nothing was more important than health for Anna. Even if she had to die, it wasn't a big deal to him.Marco nodded, along with the waiter who brought tea for him and Robert. "Of course, I'm not one to help without asking for something in return."Robert just chuckled before clearing his throat. The man put his hands into the pockets of the suit he was wearing. "Oh yes, I have

    Not only Robert but Marco is now also standing in front of a room that has a glass barrier. Where, it appears that Anna is conducting a series of examinations with inlets. Starting from the scan and also how her physical condition is now. With the help of a doctor and two nurses, plus a scientist on guard there, Anna was checked as a whole to make sure nothing was missed at all.As Marco, the man turned to Robert. Robert seemed to clench his hands and keep them under his mouth. Her eyes looked so worried. Marco was sure that she was not feeling well.So, Marco chose to calm her down. "Calm down. Your sister is being examined. You can look at him and stay positive. Anna will be fine."Upon hearing that, the tense Robert turned his head and smiled slightly stiffly. The man let out a long breath and closed his eyes. His head looked up slightly, trying to dispel the thousand and one unpleasant thoughts and prejudices he had. Anna had started all kinds of examinations before, and they alw

    And just as Marco had asked, the next morning, an hour after sunrise, Robert appeared at Marco's residence. The man came with the personal driver serving the Veliiy family. And when Marco saw him, Robert had a small smile."Please, Mr. Robert," Will said as he opened the door. Robert nodded and entered the living room, where he was already there, and looked at him directly. For a moment, the two men looked at each other.Until Marco got up and walked over to the older man. "You've come, and where's your sister?" he asked reassuringly. Marco had not yet seen the woman Robert had told him about.He had only seen Robert coming with the driver before entering here.Robert nodded and then looked back. He waved his hand, signaling the waiter to come towards him. And when the waiter saw her, he nodded and walked around to the other side.Now Robert walked back outside and approached his servant. And from there, Marco saw someone he had never seen before. Robert approached while pushing the w

    And now, things were quieter than before. The firearm Marco had brought with him had been placed on the table and posed no threat to Robert. Although the man still occasionally glances at her, remembering the sensation that Marco had caused him a few minutes ago.Both men are seated on their respective sofas as they were at the beginning of the meeting. The two of them were facing each other, and Marco started flipping through the file that Robert had brought as proof of their past cooperation.Marco gave a small nod. "Apparently, my predecessor did get a lot of favours from your family."Marco saw that one of them was helping with the investment at the beginning of building his family's big name. In fact, one of the most memorable was the dispatch of troops when his family was attacked by outsiders who did not like the success of the family head."Because of your intelligence as well as your stubbornness, I will accept your offer." Marco's eyes now turned to look at Robert and saw a

    Robert looked at Marco with cold eyes. He paused for a moment and let out a long breath. "I'm not joking or imagining. I know the truth. And because I have such curiosity and confidence, I believe that the Galahad family can help my brother."Robert then clenched his hands into fists, remembering his efforts to help his brother recover. "I've seen so many of the best doctors this city offers. I even went abroad to get the best results."The man took a deep breath and shook his head, his hands raised openly. Her shoulders lifted in despair. "Still nothing works.""I might be able to form my medical team. But the research and gathering took so long. It can't be just one or two months. Even in ten years, I may not be able to get it," Robert said at length.His eyes seemed to glaze over slightly, a shadow of someone present in the man's head. "While my brother's lifespan can probably be counted, he doesn't have that long to wait for me. And now he needs something fast, something that can

    The living room was quiet, with Marco and Robert sitting across from each other at a glass table. Marco crossed his legs and looked straight at the man who was seven years older than him.As for Robert, the man looked at Marco sharply before taking a slow breath. "I came here because I heard that the head of the Galahad family has changed."The man looked Marco straight in the eye without blinking. He looked confident and calm at the same time. "And as part of the Velliy family, I would say that the Galahad family is indebted to him. That's why I want you to give me a favor."Robert didn't want to waste time with small talk. He had something to pursue and made sure that everything went well. There was no time to think things over and over again. He was already here and had made up his mind from the moment he saw the opportunity.Marco rested his hands calmly on his thighs and looked at Robert seriously. "On what basis do you dare to say such a thing?" It took more than words to convin

    A warm puff of water with a refreshing citrus scent filled Marco's en suite bathroom. The bathtub was filled with water and almost full of foam. While Marco, the man, sat in his natural state with his head resting on the edge of the bath. Classical music played softly and pampered the ears.In Marco's hand, a glass of red wine accompanied his relaxing time. The man closed his eyes with his head, looking up at the bathroom ceiling. He had drunk almost two glasses of alcohol, so no doubt, his mind was flying into the clouds. But amazingly, Marco still knew he could not fall asleep in the bathroom.Marco let out a long sigh and got up from the bath. He grabbed a towel and moved to enter the room after rinsing himself with warm water from the shower.The sound of the door moving open could be heard from the room, along with an incoming message on Marco's cell phone. The man moved closer and opened it. It was a message from one of his good acquaintances. "Oh, what's wrong?" he muttered cur

    The staff at Horizon Edge's capital branch company gathered at the entrance in a row. They all straightened their clothes and put on their best smiles, waiting for someone to arrive in a few minutes.When a black SVU car stopped in front of the company's door, and a person with shiny shoes emerged, the staff instantly put on their brightest faces. Everyone bowed deeply, waiting for the figure to enter and pass them all."Welcome, Mr. Marco," they said almost simultaneously. No one dared to raise their face when Marco's figure passed by, and they were still bowing deeply until Marco entered through the main door.One of the staff at the far end immediately followed Marco's lead and accompanied him to the elevator. "Good morning, Mr. Marco. We are truly delighted to have you here today. We are truly honoured that you would let us know in advance."While the manager managing the recruitment of new staff also approached, the man smiled broadly and showed a friendly face. "We've heard all

    Hearing so many questions and sounding quite disorganised, Marco raised his hand to signal the reporters to hold back for a moment. The camera flashes continued to rain down on him rapidly as Marco took a deep breath. He remained calm and controlled the situation well."Please calm down," Marco said, referring to the reporters bombarding him with endless questions. And right at that moment, the noise from the questions that kept coming back and forth slowly decreased little by little. Before the end, there was only the running footage to record the events in the hotel hall.When all the reporters were under control, Marco looked up at the faces now, watching him intently. "All this time, I've been doing my work elsewhere, which is just as important as the work in the family company.""As for the business I just did, I'm quite fond of it outside of family matters. And about the hidden identity, we are waiting for the right time to share this good news with everyone," Marco added.The m
