The Resurgence Of The War King Chapter 41
They were already close to Horizon Complex, where the Bolton Group had rented a space for an office, when Christina cleared her throat."Ahem!"She forced a soft smile and turned to Roderick."Mr. Holmes, I will get off at the next junction. I have an urgent matter to attend to there. You don't have to wait for me; you can head to the office. Once I'm done, I will report to the office as well."Roderick nodded slowly in response. Suddenly, the car stopped, and Christina got out.As soon as the car sped away, leaving Christina behind, she let out a mocking smile. "Since Miss Bolton has so much faith in you, let's see how you handle the business. Bloody ignorant! Haha!" She laughed heartily and left in a direction.Meanwhile, Felicia was in the CEO's office at Santos Corporation. She was pacing back and forth, with many worries on her mind.There were files on her table that needed her attention, but she couldn't even take a break from her heavy thoughts to attend to them.One of Felici
The Resurgence Of The War King Chapter 42
A black Mercedes-Benz, followed by an SUV, suddenly halted before a massive building—Horizon Complex. Some security guards jumped down from the SUV and rushed forward to the Mercedes-Benz to open the door.Seeing the black Benz in the distance, the big four, who had arrived very early at Horizon Complex that morning, instantly lit up with excitement."Huh?! Miss Bolton is finally here!" one of them shouted, catching the attention of the others. Instantly, the big four all rushed toward the car to welcome the noblewoman.At this moment, the black Benz door was opened, and a young, handsome man dressed in a well-tailored suit stepped out of the car.His demeanor was very calm, and his aura was completely domineering.The big four suddenly paused midway, as the figure before them wasn’t a lady. Scrutinizing him from head to toe, their faces twisted with immediate disdain.'What?! Roderick Holmes?!''This fool?!' Their minds buzzed with anger as soon as their eyes met Roderick's.The blac

The elderly men's gazes turned to the floor as their faces flushed with embarrassment.Reflecting on Roderick's statement, they felt it was true. If he were worthless, it shouldn't be difficult for them to have him cleared out of their way.Moreover, they had always been troubled by his existence; Roderick never cared about them.This shows that he is a big deal to them, while they were nothing to him.Here is the truth before the big four, but it is up to them whether they agree to it.Suddenly, the big four all had their faces turn red with rage. Their fists clenched in fury, and they were tempted to pounce on Roderick to teach him a lesson.At that moment, Caleb quickly called his colleagues’ attention and whispered to them, “We don’t have to resort to violence with this kid in public. How about we teach him a lesson secretly? Silent swords cut deepest.”Caleb’s point seemed reasonable, making them all step back except for Benjamin.He knew his colleagues accepted Caleb’s suggestio

Arnold's brows raised in extreme shock. 'Could that mean I might die at any moment from now?' he questioned himself in great panic. His face instantly turned bitter the more he thought about it. Roderick's remark was still like a hard pill stuck in his throat, but he had to swallow it down. Since Arnold's doctor had informed him that he had only weeks to live, he had been worried and afraid. But right now, he was scared to death as Roderick said his life was hanging by a thread. Even though he wasn't sure about the remark, the fact that he mentioned it made him seriously afraid. Arnold nearly burst into tears immediately, as he never wished to die prematurely. Still puzzled by how Roderick found out this information, Arnold's colleagues continued hurling insults at Roderick. Meanwhile, Arnold was frozen in place and shivering in utmost fear. The elderly man was nearly peeing himself. Just then, Benjamin dismissed Roderick's remark, saying, "Since you know it's common for people

Bella's face immediately frowned in disgust. Taking a thorough glance at the scene before her, her hatred for Roderick grew even stronger.'Why is there such a large crowd?' she questioned inwardly, derisively.She stared coldly at Roderick from where she stood, with many ill intentions running through her mind.As she contemplated how to execute her plan, she turned to her boss to gauge her thoughts."Hmph! I can't believe Roderick is really acting as Miss Bolton's spokesperson. Does he even know what to say in this interview? Does he think people want to listen to him?"Felicia, whose face was still full of surprise, slowly shifted her gaze away from the large crowd, gave her secretary a brief glance, and replied, "We can't tell from this distance. Let's get closer to find out."The young CEO said this and immediately headed toward the crowd, leaving Bella completely confused. She expected her boss to be intensely angry and irritated at the sight of Roderick and to ask them to retur

The big four began to consider the possibility of whom among them Roderick might choose.Given the statistics, Jacob York had an advantage in the construction industry compared to the others. But the York Group didn't have enough funds to partner with the Bolton Group compared to Caleb Houston's this time.For that reason, Houston's Group might get the chance to be the partnering company.The fact that Caleb had been so watchful and careful with his words earlier, as he never wanted to offend Roderick, says a lot about his chances too.In conclusion, the big four were still in the dark about whose company it might be, as they had no idea about Roderick's criteria for choosing a partner.The big four were still calculating in their heads when Roderick added,"I would like the public to know that the big four aren't the only ones eligible to be the partnering company. Any company that shares the same goals and vision as the Bolton Group for the project is eligible to be the partnering c

Meanwhile, Roderick was on his way to the Bolton Group's office, following the given directions to the location.Soon, he was in the general manager's office, sitting before a laptop.The War King was already playing along with his role as he logged on to the company's website to review the submitted proposals as expected.Upon reaching the page, Roderick was greeted with a large number of proposals that needed to be reviewed.His brows lifted slightly as he heaved a deep sigh. He couldn't explain how the business spirit that was slowly gathering inside him instantly vanished. The thought of how long it would take to check through the proposals brought him back to the reality of who he was.Roderick instantly remembered he was a War King who only grew stronger and more active on the battlefield. Anything else aside from that would be quite difficult for him to align with.After a bit of reluctance, Roderick finally scrolled through the screen and opened one of the proposals.Reading t

"Roderick, I have a birthday gift for you."In the large living room of the Santos family, Clara Watson, Roderick's mother-in-law, said icily as she placed a package on the table before them.Next to her was a young, handsome man, Roderick Holmes, who was dressed in casual wear and had an apron on.Roderick's eyes lit up in surprise as he unwrapped the package with excitement. His gaze fell on a file inside the box, and he happily checked it out.After he flipped through it, the excitement on his face wiped away when he found out it was a divorce file."What is this?" he was stupefied by what he saw.Clara's face flushed with disgust. "Can't you see what it is? Today will be the end of the marriage between you and my daughter. Hurry up and sign the file and stop asking me unnecessary questions."Roderick paused, trying to understand this better, but he was unable to fathom it."Felicia and I have been happily married for two years, and we both love each other. Why do we have to divorc

The research she did on Roderick stated that he had been a live-in son-in-law for years. How can someone with such a record be in charge of Bolton Group's project?Never in his life had he ever been in business, either. How can someone with no knowledge of business manage one for a notable company like theirs?Christina couldn't understand why her boss was so inconsiderate about her reputation and that of the Bolton Group by choosing Roderick as the face of the project regardless of the odds.The secretary was still processing all these thoughts when she heard Kate add, "Mr. Holmes, don't forget that you were the one who announced to the public that Bolton Group is open for partnership. Now, interested companies are at our office's doorstep waiting for your approval."Roderick was speechless as he remembered he had actually said that last night. "Miss Bolton, I said that because I was just trying to play along. I would have disagreed with the post instantly yesterday, but I didn't wan

Roderick was mesmerized as he looked at the display from where he sat. Not that he didn't have the resources to get such a display for himself, but he was surprised that Kate took his birthday so personally and to this extent.Despite finding out about his birthday late, she still took the time to prepare such a bewildering present.Roderick understood the stress and money the display must have cost. Then he said to her, "Miss Bolton, we met just yesterday. Don't you think this present is too extravagant for me to accept?"Kate’s eyes lit up instantly. "Come on, Mr. Holmes. Nothing is too expensive for you, as long as it’s for you."She walked briskly to Roderick and asked, "Be honest with me, Mr. Holmes. Didn’t you like what you saw? How about I order more sets of all the accessories right away?"Roderick was mind-blown and left speechless as Kate said all that. He couldn’t fathom what was before him, yet she was talking about ordering more. Isn’t that too much?He slowly waved his h
