A young and extremely handsome man stepped inside the boardroom. He was very tall, measuring well above 190 cm in height. His exquisite black three-piece suit looked like it was beautifully tailored for him, fitting him snugly and enhancing his muscular frame.He had black hair that was short and neatly combed, with piercing blue irises and a clean, shaven, flinty jawline. His extremely handsome face had an icy expression on it, and the dangerous aura emanating from his tall and well-built body made him appear very intimidating to the board of directors in the room."You!" Isaac Iil exclaimed, his wily and sly hazel eyes wide open in shock and disbelief."Yes. Me." Nicolas sneered coldly, the sneer on his extremely handsome face making him look like a handsome devil."How?!""How did you get in?" Isaac Iil yelled out in quick succession, his shock clearly visible on his handsome face. His reaction made it clear to the board members that he knew this extremely handsome intruder from so
"Excuse me? What do you mean?" Mr. Jenkins suddenly said, intensifying the very tense atmosphere that Nicolas' words had brought into the board meeting room. "The company will no longer belong to him." Mr. Jenkins continued, the tone of his voice displaying his confusion and surprise at Nicolas' words. He had been trying to gain control of the Iil Group for a very long time. After all, the Iil Group was a very successful business group that was worth over $300 million. Therefore, it was quite hard for him to stomach the fact that a stranger who he had never heard of or seen before claimed that the Iil Group that he had been trying to gain control over for a long time would no longer belong to Isaac Iil. "I don't remember asking you to speak." Nicolas said it coldly, not turning his gaze to Mr. Jenkins. However, his few words reminded Mr. Jenkins of the danger he initially felt when Nicolas gazed at him, so he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. "Isaac," Nicolas said, and Isa
Nicolas' steps were visibly lighter as he stepped through the doors of the Iil Group HQ—or should he call it XENO Group HQ?That's right.Nicolas now owned 70% shares of Iil Group, and of course, the first thing he did was change the name of the multi-million dollar business group to XENO Group. There was no way he would allow his newly acquired business group to bear the name of the Iils.Four hours ago, he struck a wondrous deal with Mr. Jenkins. He purchased 27.1% shares from Mr. Jenkins for a sum of $5 million, the same price he purchased 42.9% shares from Isaac Iil.Of course, Mr. Jenkins did not agree to sell it to him for such a ridiculously cheap price at first, but with a little bit of suppression and intimidation, Mr. Jenkins did not take long before he agreed to his terms.Moreover, as the owner of Nacht Group, a business group worth trillions of dollars, Nicolas was a very experienced businessman, and Stormwind City was nothing worth mentioning when compared to the cutthro
"H-How?!" Victor Iil stuttered, completely dumbfounded at Nicolas' appearance. Were the security personnel asleep? How could they let a total stranger appear in the space of a diamond-tier member of Heaven's Fall? Unfortunately, no matter how indignant he was at the security personnel, he couldn't change the fact that Nicolas had appeared. He could only deal with it. Nicolas stared at the handsome black-haired youth dressed in a white shirt and white slacks coldly. The more he stared at him, the angrier he became. The fact that such a scumbag as Victor Iil was roaming free did not sit well with him. Nicolas calmed himself down. That was not why he was here. Moreover, after this meeting, Victor Iil was going back to Stormwind City Prison, where he belonged. He would join his father there. Right now, what was really important was knowing the reason why Victor Iil visited Limbra Inc. during his work stint as Seth Kaysen. Limbra Inc. was a subsidiary of the Tyris family's main busine
Blue Diamond Villa, Stormwind City A very young but highly handsome young man was reclining on a large and exquisite sofa, his piercing blue irises riveted on the content that was being shown on the enormous state-of-the-art TV that was presently on the inside of a very plush and well-designed, furnished living room that had a large TV that was currently on. His glossy black hair was cut short, and he wore a luxurious black robe over his upper body. His upper body was completely uncovered, and the only thing that adorned it was the robe. On the other hand, he had on a pair of black trousers, which covered his lower torso, but his feet were not protected in any way. The remote control for the television was in his left hand, and he clutched a glass of expensive wine in his right hand, from which he took frequent sips. He was multitasking. What could be a more fitting way to commemorate his victory over Isaac and Victor Iil than to raise a glass of wine that has been aged for half a
It was a very brisk evening, and along the mostly deserted highway, a number of dazzling sports cars and other vehicles could be seen racing at high speeds.The driver of the sleek black sports car had a very outstanding and noteworthy degree of driving skills as he sped successfully past multiple automobiles that were occupying the highway along the very scarce highway.As soon as drivers on the highway caught sight of the gorgeous vehicle in their rearview mirrors, they made room for the sleek sports car to pass the relatively few vehicles that were still on the road.It goes without saying that Nicolas was the one behind the wheel of the sleek black sports car; in fact, there was no other possible candidate.As he expertly navigated the highway with his speed, his wonderfully gorgeous face and piercing blue eyes were highly concentrated on the task at hand.It was currently 9:05 p.m., and he was on his way to the Mars Hotel at this very moment. According to the information that he
SIX Casino, Stormwind City8:05 p.m.A dashing young man in his late twenties who was dressed in an expensive red three-piece suit could be seen walking around with a broad grin on his face. In the brightly illuminated casino hall, his beautifully combed black hair screamed of riches and elegance, and his blue irises crinkled in joy as they took in the spectacle in front of him.The really handsome young man was participating in a game of poker with seven other individuals, including four males and three women. Beside him, three exceptionally stunning female models were watching the game, a glass of wine in their slender hands."Empty out." The velvety voice of the handsome young man who was speaking sent jolts of sexual tension down the spines of the three incredibly beautiful female models."Aaron is the victor!" The dealer for their game of poker, a middle-aged man dressed in a pristine and flawless white suit, declared in a monotone voice what the next round of betting would be.T
Mars Hotel, Stormwind City10:09 p.m.Nicolas took a swig of the extremely pricey wine that was sitting on his table and enjoyed the flavor. A few minutes ago, he finished his dinner and then gave it over to the members of the cleaning staff who had asked for it. He was now reading the lengthy emails that his most reliable contact in Stormwind City had forwarded to him in a cool and collected manner.The e-mails contained numerous possible top-notch deals that needed Nicolas' signature to be signed before the deals could advance, updates on the still-spiking share price of the companies, as well as various other critical documents that needed his attention to review.Nicolas browsed through the e-mails, taking sips of his wine from the glass cup he was using to hold it while scrolling through the e-mails on his iPad. He paid greater attention to the more essential ones that she had sent to him.As Nicolas scanned through the emails, he became aware of a very significant problem that w
Following the meticulous plans of Nicolas, the Tyris family completely met their ruin a few weeks later.The once-mighty Tyris family now laid in financial ruin; their business empire dismantled, their wealth evaporated, and their influence shattered.The Tyris family faced the harsh reality of their downfall.The federal authorities, after the proper investigations and thorough examinations of the activities of the Tyris family business group and companies came out with a befitting result.In a press conference, the Tyris family were pronounced guilty of all the charges levied against them, and would face the proper punishments worthy of their crime.Without any suspense, Grey Tyris, alongside with his accomplices would without a single iota of doubt face jail time in the wake of their offence.Naturally, Grey Tyris and his accomplices did not want to go down without swinging, hence they pooled their last resources and hired a top lawyer to defend them.Nevertheless, it still ended u
“Who are you?!” Margaret Tyris asked the moment the door was forcefully kicked open and then scrambled her way to the table which was closest to her and picked up a knife.She held the knife with both hands and pointed it at the person who forcefully kicked the door open.As a person who was wanted by the federal authorities and on the run, she was extremely paranoid and anxious, and when coupled with the fact that the invader forcefully kicked the door open, it was no wonder that she was on edge and picked up a knife.No matter who the person was, and regardless of their identity, whether they were with the federal authorities or not, she was not going to let herself get caught and let everything she’d worked for go down the drain!With that resolution in mind, she took a deep breath to calm her mind and her already trembling hands, then took a good look at the invader.The invader was very tall, standing at an impressive height of 190 cm, or even more. He was also very well built, a
Leyland Hotel, Stormwind City.[11:34 p.m.]The Leyland Hotel could not be classified as a five star hotel in Stormwind city, neither could it be classified as a four star hotel. The best it could be called was a three star hotel, after all, it was located well in the outskirts of Stormwind city.Everything in the hotel, from the exterior of the building to the rooms in the building could be described as third class at best.The exterior of the hotel which was once stood beautifully under the reflection of the bright sun was now somewhat rundown, and completely unattractive to most of the passer-byes who considered spending the night there.The receptionist who sat at the front desk in the hotel was the perfect example of bored and disinterested, with her desk being cluttered with outdated brochures and a ringing bell that had long lost its shine.Every other facility in the hotel could be described as third class at best.The rooms were very unpleasant for a customer with uncomfortab
The Tyris family manor, Stormwind City.It was quite late into the afternoon when Nicolas arrived at the Tyris manor. He, of course, drove his sleek Lamborghini Aventador to the manor as usual.As he stood outside the Tyris manor, his heart beat rapidly in a mix of anticipation and resolve.He had come alone, as he was driven by the desire to see the outcome of his actions firsthand, as well as closure from it.This moment had been years in the making, a meticulously crafted plan to bring down the family that had tormented him for so long.The once-grand estate now mirrored the desolation that had marked Nicolas's childhood—a fitting backdrop for the culmination of his vengeance.The large manor which sat atop a large amount of acres was once vibrant with the bustle of high society. However, it now felt like a mausoleum, as if echoing the emptiness of its occupants' fortunes.The Tyris manor which was once a symbol of opulence and power for the Tyris family, now stood as a dismal remin
The moment the VITA Group which was the main and fundamental pillar of the Tyris family was acquired by Nicolas, the doom of the Tyris family was set in stone.In less than 48 hours, Nicolas had acquired the VITA Group, the Tyris family main pillar. What more could be said for the small business companies and corporations that were part of the VITA Group or under their banner?In less than 36 hours, every single business company that was controlled by the VITA Group switched owners and were now owned by Nicolas.Naturally, they tried to resist, but it was of no use at all. Nicolas was too damn authoritative and aggressive. Most of all, he had the money. No matter what their price were, he was wealthy enough to double it.Not even a day had passed after Nicolas had purchased the small business, and a restructuring was set in progress.The name of the business group was changed from VITA to Zenith Capital, and of course, Nicolas let his trusted Charlotte Clinton handle the rest.Majorit
Less than 24 hours had passed since Grey Tyris hosted a press conference regarding the exposure of his VITA Group insider secrets and crimes, as well as their corruption.While his press conference was a swift response, which was expected from a top business veteran like Grey Tyris, it was only going to delay the inevitable.The secrets were out in the open, and whatever they did would end up being utterly hopeless.Majority of the shareholders, investors and business partners no longer had any trust in the Tyris family following the exposure of their crimes, and even the minority that still maintained their shares in the Tyris family’s VITA Group were already skeptical about riding a sinking ship.They were investors, therefore their sense of belonging was null and void when their money was involved. The moment they found a way to cut costs and regain their losses, they would jump ship immediately.There were no friends in the business world; only interests.*Mercury Penthouse, West
The next day was undoubtedly bound to be a very busy one for the members of the Tyris family, as well as the executives and upper echelon of the VITA Group.*Grey Tyris sat in his vintage study room which was located at the top floor of the Tyris manor.Dressed in an immaculate white suit, his aged body stood ramrod still with his hands crossed behind his back while his piercing blue eyes gazed out at the well-kept and neat garden below.His study room, which was usually his place of calm and control, was now filled with a palpable tension.His assistant and butler who had been with him for more than three decades hurried in, and his aged face which was always calm was now pale with anxiety."Mr. Tyris, you need to see this." He said anxiously, handing him a stack of freshly printed newspaper articles and an expensive tablet displaying various news websites.Grey Tyris collected the items from his butler, took a deep breath and scanned the headlines:“Unmasking the Titans: Tyris Fami
Naturally, with the scale and gravity of what happened, there was no way such a thing could have been kept under wraps.Without any suspense, it didn’t take long for the entire city of Stormwind, including the parts of Stormwind City were the major residents were the poor, to be completely abuzz with the scandal surrounding the Tyris Family.As news outlets continued to broadcast the shocking revelations of unethical practices within the wealthy family, public outrage grew louder by the hour. Across the city, people gathered in coffee shops, offices, their houses and many other gathering spots reserved for the public, expressing their disbelief and anger over the scandalous and unethical actions of the Tyris Family.*On a bustling street corner, a reporter from The City Chronicles, one of the ten media companies that received Charlotte’s $1 million and were on her payroll, held a microphone up to a middle-aged woman, her face flushed with indignation.The middle-aged woman was a resi
Vine Lane, Stormwind City.Vine Lane was one of the numerous middle class areas in Stormwind City, with well-built houses and apartment which were also pleasantly looking occupying the neat streets of the neighborhood.There were of course several middle end cars plying the traffic regulated highway, with the residents heading to their various destinations.The walkway reserved for the pedestrians were as empty as it could be, with only a very few passerby walking occasionally across the well paved ground.The weather was a little bit sunny, but considering the fact that it was 10:21 a.m., it was nothing too serious. Moreover, from the relaxed expression on the faces of the few pedestrians, as well as the residents in the various relaxing buildings like cafés and several restaurants, this wasn’t a one-time occurrence for them, so they were pretty much used to it.The fact that it was a Saturday, which was a weekend also contributed to the calm, serene and scanty environment.Tyrese Mi
