"What?" Agnes was shocked, staring at Althon in disbelief. She would have slapped Althon if he was still a pathetic man. However, she would be digging her own grave if she did so after knowing Althon's true identity.Agnes watched Althon intently, looking down in shame. Her face felt very hot right now. She could not deny that Althon was a handsome and dashing man. Any woman would admit that. The thick eyebrows, sharp gaze, solid shoulders, and muscles suddenly made her heart pound. "Oh my, what's happening to me?" Agnes touched her heated cheeks. She found it difficult to look at Althon. "If you cannot follow my three conditions, you and your family will be severely punished," Alhton said. "I do, Young Master." Agnes bowed. Althon cleared his throat. "You violated the third condition you agreed to, Agnes.""I'm sorry, Daddy." Agnes took a deep breath, looking down in shame. Althon couldn't help but laugh when he saw Agnes' red face. "Are you sick, Agnes? Your face is as red as a
Noah suddenly fell silent, closing his eyes, remembering the events in the Paradise Store yesterday. He was very sure that he had met Althon. "Noah, you should rest." Alvin pushed the wheelchair. Noah tugged at his hair, staring at Alvin unblinkingly. "I'm pretty sure I met Althon at the Paradise Store yesterday. I insulted him, and Mr. Sean suddenly came and called him 'Young Master'. I'm not lying, Alvin.""Noah, calm down." Alvin showed a photo of Althon's figure in the city center. "This man is Althon. He's in the city center. I couldn't have lied to you.""I'm not lying either, Alvin. I met Althon yesterday. I could have sworn." Noah was suddenly breathless. He shivered when he remembered his prison life. "I-I even had to stay overnight in jail because I insulted Althon.""Noah, you seem to be hallucinating. Trash like Althon can't possibly go to Emerald Place. The guards would have kicked him out immediately if he dared to enter the Emerald Place.""W-what if Althon has a twin
Althon was excited for his first day of training and studying. He woke up early, worked out in the courtyard, and prepared to start the day as best he could. However, he became worried when he met Anthony at the dinner table. "What happened to you, Grandpa?" Althon asked. "Althon, you seem very energetic today, but I have to tell you something. Your cousins, Alex and Alexa, will be visiting the mansion now. They want to see me. You need to hide so they don't know where you are.""Alex and Alexa?" Althon was silent for a moment, clenching his fists tightly. "I'll be fine, Grandpa. You don't have to worry about me. I can train and learn elsewhere.""I don't know their true purpose, but I have no reason to prevent them from seeing me. They are still my grandchildren after all. They don't know about the crimes their father committed. Even so, you should still be wary of them, Althon.""Do you mind if Alan stays with me while Alex and Alexa visit?" Anthony turned to Alan for a moment. "
Alex and Alexa entered a grand mansion, passing by servants who bowed respectfully to them. "Dad." Alex and Alexa bowed respectfully."I heard that you met your grandfather at Paradise Mansion," Arnold said as he walked into the main room, sitting on the sofa. Alex and Alex sat opposite Arnold, glancing at each other. Alex responded, "Yes, we visited our grandfather, Dad. He's doing well but he seems lonely and misses us all."Arnold smiled. "Yes, your grandfather must be feeling very lonely. I've asked him to stay with us, but he prefers to stay at Paradise Mansion. I couldn't possibly force him.""I'm glad you visited your grandfather. You should develop a good relationship with him." Arnold stood up. "I've heard reports about your work. You're doing very well. I will give you more challenging tasks. If you can achieve the best results, you deserve a vacation."Alex and Alexa nodded. "Alex, Alexa, do you have a lover yet?"Alex and Alexa looked at each other."You must bring you
Althon practiced and studied very hard for a month. Whenever he felt tired, he would look at pictures of Arthur and Adele. Anthony told Althon to take a vacation, but Althon insisted that he had no time for leisure. Meanwhile, Julian's family was still in a very difficult position. They continue to get rejected by Sean Ruild despite repeated attempts to meet. Their relationship with other families is also getting worse. James was increasingly angry, and he made Noah, Alvin, and the rest of his family the target of his anger.Noah finally confessed that he had harassed someone who had a close relationship with Sean Ruild. He was forced to lie about Althon because James, Alvin, and his family didn't believe his story. At the same time, Alvin continued to search for Althon in Asthonia and other cities. However, he and his troops always failed to catch the man. Althon stood by the lake, staring at the moon's reflection in the puddles. He had just completed fifty laps around the lake.
Althon was on his way to Mande Island. He observed the scenery through the airplane window. "I need to take a vacation to ease my mind.""All preparations are perfect, Young Master," Alan said."Thank you, Alan. You've been a great help." Althon leaned back in his seat, opening the hologram screen. "I've never been to Mande Island before."Althon pressed the search button. Ansen instantly displayed complete information about Mande Island. "Mande Island is an exclusive island located in the southern region of the country of Thondonia. The island has become a tourist and vacation destination for wealthy families. Mande Island has a very beautiful landscape of white sand, sea, coral reefs, hills, and forests. The island also has very complete facilities such as airports, harbors, luxury villas, game rides, zoos, restaurants, and hospitals." Althon looked at the pictures one by one. "This is amazing. I can't wait to go on vacation and teach Alvin, Alicia, and the others a lesson."Meanw
Agnes froze when she realized her actions, squeezing her skirt. "Oh my, I suddenly bowed to Althon," she muttered.Althon smiled, looking the other way. Meanwhile, Alvin, Alicia, Kevin, and the others were confused by Agnes' actions. "Agnes." Alicia glanced at Althon, coming closer to Agnes. Agnes let out a long breath. "I-I intended to pick up the broken glass, Alicia. I neglected to let the glass fall.""You don't have to, Alicia. The servants will take care of the broken glass." Alicia pulled Agnes' hand away, rolling her eyes when she saw Althon. Kevin whispered in Alvin's ear, "I wonder if Agnes is bowing to Althon.""You must be crazy, Kevin." Alvin laughed. "Agnes hates Althon so much. So, how could she possibly want to bow to Althon?"Alvin suddenly fell silent when he remembered Noah's words about Althon having a close relationship with Sean Ruild. "This is impossible."Althon reached for a drink, but Alvin brushed his hand away. "What are you doing, Althon? You took my d
Two guards rushed to the crowd. "What happened, Miss?" asked one of the guards. "This man has hurt my boyfriend and my friends!" Alicia pointed at Alvin. "You must take him and punish him!""Follow us, sir. We need to examine you.""Alright. We'll meet at the opening ceremony tonight." Althon waved goodbye, following the two guards. Agnes observed the two guards and was surprised when she noticed one of them. "Mr. Alan," she murmured. Agnes felt her chest beating very fast. "I had expected Althon's subordinates to be watching him from a distance.""What an asshole!" Alvin sat on the chair, grimacing in pain. "Althon wants to take revenge on me.""Be patient, Alvin." Alicia sat beside Alvin, nursing his wound. "We have plenty of opportunities for pranks, Althon. I'm sure he'll get a huge fine from the Mande Island management."Alicia turned to Agnes, helping Alvin up. "I'll walk you to your room, Alvin."Meanwhile, Althon entered the room with Alan. "This room is quite nice." Alth
