*****As though the people inside were a group of country’s threat, who were being chased by all the various security departments of the country, an incredibly fast speeding car could be seen on a long tarred road right now, and even the slightest divergent and collusion could cause the most fatal accident that would take the passenger’s lives. “I…”Inside the car, the mouth of the Jade beauty, who had never been snapped upon or gotten furious upon by her grandfather before since she came to the world was opened wide with shock and disbelief, but feeling his present state, she breathed in.She still wanted to convince her grandfather to slow down, but she was able to tell that his present state gave no space to a no, so she gently nodded her head and then continued searching hard.Honestly, although she was greatly amazed by everything about Mark, which she had learned from her grandfather the previous day, she still felt that he was being greatly overestimated.The jade beauty
*****Mark, “_”‘Who knows me?’He couldn’t help but suddenly frown slightly before turning his head in the direction where he was being called.The following second, his mouth gaped and he became dumbstruck.“Mister, are you entering or not?”“I…”Mark quickly turned back when he heard the grumble of the driver of the taxi he was just about to enter.He hesitated for a brief moment, then he shook his head.“I’m incredibly sorry, sir, but I think…”“You are not going. Nonsense.”The driver, a grumpy-looking man hissed angrily, then not allowing Mark to finish his words, he pressed hard on the pedals, almost stepping on Mark’s feet.“Why are people always angry these days, anyway?”He shook his head and turned around, just in time to see the jade beauty who had been running toward him reach him.“Mister Mark!” She called gently, looking as though she would tear up.Mark was confused and he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable and a bit irritated by this sight that made h
*****“Sir commissioner, who would have thought that you’d also be invited to this banquet? My name is Rashmond and I am the CEO of Rashmond Medicines. Please do take care of me in the future.”“Brother Rashmond, nice meeting you. Please, make sure to also take care of me in the future.”Deep within the estate, inside a not-too-big hall that was elegantly and beautifully decorated, with bright light illuminating it, making it resemble a day, groups of influential and affluent people were busy building connections with each other right now.Although it was said that the banquet wasn’t open to the outside, the descendants of the Jackson family had invited a few of their friends, so, it still has up to fifty outsiders in it right now.Everybody was presently acting as though they didn’t mind, but it was obvious that they were already fed up with their nonstop waiting for the Old Master of the Jackson family, the main reason why most of them were there. Whether big or small, everyb
***** “This… this…” The flower that Mark bought to surprise his girlfriend fell from his hand and he felt as though he was going to faint from excessive shock. Blood rushed to the back of his head in a blink, and his eyes almost rolled to the back. Mark, who had been working really hard at a construction site, doing all the most strenuous and life-risky jobs to save enough money for a month refused to accept that the lady whom he had done it all for was the one presently in an intimate and sexual position with another man right in the apartment he had rented for her.“Re… Rebecca?” Mark finally forced out with a shaky voice that didn't sound like his after a period of refusing to accept the reality before him.His mouth was extremely heavy as he prayed fervently in his mind that he had only seen wrongly. However, as soon as his voice sounded, the lady who was straddling another man on a couch before Mark, kissing him and acting as though she wasn't able to get enough of him was s
***** “Future son-in-law, I know that you and your girlfriend are trying everything you can to give me beautiful grandchildren as soon as possible, but you shouldn’t ignore your health. Why not come eat the noodles I prepare for you first before they go cold? Then you can huh...” The voice ended with a startle and then it became one of deep surprise. “Mark, what are you doing here?” Mark, “_” Mark suddenly found it extremely difficult to breathe. He felt as though he was going to suffocate to death for no reason, but he did everything he could to control himself and remain calm before he eventually turned his attention in the direction of the newcomer. Behold, as he had already thought in his subconscious mind, standing there was the person who was said to be in a critical condition and for whom he had been working his life along the line for in the past month. “Weren’t… weren’t you supposed to be in the hospital right now, having the surgery you were supposed to have?” Mark bre
***** “You stupid bastard, how dare you claim young master Gab’s woman as yours and even dare to touch him? Bang.” “Rahhhh!!!” Inside a small room with only a dim light illuminating it, a blood-curdling cry that was filled to the brim with agony and the most painful torture on earth filled the place right now.The sound was heart-wrenching and could make people’s hair stand on the end. It was made by Mark, who appeared thoroughly devastated at this moment with his clothes already turned to rag and dyed with his blood. In each hole of the cloth, various sizes of fresh wounds that were still gushing out thick red blood were seen, ranging from small to ghastly. Mark was presently feeling the greatest pain of his life, and he had already wished for death more than once, as the agony was just too much. This was his third day of receiving all sorts of beatings after he caught Rebecca cheating on him. Mark had no idea about how he got here; just that, he suddenly awoke with a bang of
***** “See, I will be honest with you. You aren’t the first to be brought here for having designs on the young master’s woman, but many who thought they‘d be able to avenge themselves were long dead since the young master is not just a nobody, but the son of the Police Department’s Commissioner. You can’t sue us or him, so, you should just forget anything called revenge and travel as far away as you can from the young master’s woman, otherwise…” The person, probably the only human being who still has a trace of humanity in him within the police station sighed and then stood up after applying ointment to the last spot on Mark. “You can leave after wearing this,” The person threw a pair of pants and a shirt at Mark, and then they turned around and left. Mark remained seated and wouldn’t react for a moment. He appeared unusually calm and quiet at the moment, only he knowing what was on his mind.Eventually, without still having any emotion, not even the slightest fluctuation of it, M
*****“So pitiful.”“Our biggest prayer every day is to not have a child that will bring about our downfall.”“Sigh… with how kind and hardworking the mother and daughter duo were, to think that they would end up being thrashed and rendered homeless because an unfortunate son had offended someone he shouldn’t have offended.”“But I heard that it was the landlady of the house who instructed them to be thrashed and expelled; how could it have anything to do with that gentle boy?"“Aish. What do you know? Have you forgotten that I’m a friend of Rebecca’s mother? She told me yesterday that her daughter had acquired a wealthy and influential young man from a powerful family as a new boyfriend, and due to jealousness, the stupid boy had offended the wealthy young man, thereby gaining his wrath. To punish him, the influential young man decided to purchase his family's home and make the landlady do what she did.”“He deserved it, but… but isn’t that too excessive? How could he…”Hearing all t
