It had been raining since the night before. Amidst the cold air, Anthony, Abraham, Arka, and Anita talked in a room. Anthony's condition had improved after his sibling's arrival, although his longing for Arthur had not disappeared."I'm so glad you're better now, Anthony," Anita said as she set the teacup on the table. "I still want to be here, but I have to go back to my house today.""Yes, I have to go too. I hope you won't pretend to be sick again so we can get together like this," Arka said with a laugh. "You guys always get on my nerves so much." Anthony chuckled, glancing at his sons, who were chatting with his nieces and nephews in the other room. He was happy to see his siblings. However, sadness still refused to leave as he remembered Arthur's relationship with his other sons. "You should come to the family gathering." Anthony smiled. "Isn't Arnold going to be confirmed as the next heir at the family meeting?" asked Arka with assurance," We will definitely come.""You're r
"I would like to invite you to cooperate with me now. I'll give you an island in Emerald Place as a gift." Arnold smiled. "I don't mean to be arrogant, but I'm sure that I'll be the winner of the competition that Dad organized."Aaron and Andy looked at Arnold sharply. "That's better than you guys not getting anything if I win, isn't it?""How long are we going to work together?" asked Aaron as he clenched his fists tightly. He certainly didn't trust Arnold. "If Arnold can get rid of Dad, he can get rid of me just as easily," he mused. "We'll work together until the family meeting is over. We have a lot to prepare for if Arthur and his family are still alive. I'm sure you know what Arthur will do at the family meeting." Andy smiled wryly. "You are the most guilty person in what happened the other day, Arnold. You will be Arthur's main target. You didn't want to get your comeuppance, so you brought me and Aaron along.""You agreed to help me get rid of Arthur, didn't you?" Arnold la
Twelve days passed with great difficulty for Althon. He had to live a hard life on an uninhabited island while training under Raka and the others. Althon had been accustomed to living independently since childhood, so he was not too bothered by the limitations on the island. However, the martial arts training he is undergoing now is much tougher than any he has ever received. Althon had to wake up at the crack of dawn and prepare everything himself. By six in the morning, he had to be on the hill training. He was not allowed to know the news of the outside world during his training. Althon was pushed to the ground and scrambled to his feet. He blocked Raka's kick but was pushed back by the follow-up attack. "Training time is over." Raka smiled. "Good job, young master. You have improved compared to the first day of your training. Unfortunately, your current skills are not enough to defeat me."Althon dropped to the ground, wiping away sweat and controlling his panting breath. He l
"Alan!" shouted Anthony as Alan pulled him from the wheelchair. A shot landed in Alan's back shortly after. The guards on the scene immediately helped Alan and Anthony, taking them to safety."Anthony!" screamed Abraham as he approached. "Dad!" Adam quickly restrained Abraham, keeping an eye on the surroundings.The alarm continued to sound. The guards hurriedly searched the entire area, looking for the whereabouts of the mysterious shooter. Several gunshots were heard.The guards quickly took Anthony, Abraham, Andy, and Alan to the house. The alarm continued to ring. The sound was so loud that Anthony was unconscious. The guards continued to move around the residential area. The special forces immediately searched for the shooter while the rest guarded the house very closely. "Anthony." Abraham looked worried at Anthony's unconscious state. "You've had a very hard day, Anthony," he murmured. The doctors attended to Alan immediately. Security continued to be tightened to the maxi
Armed guards are standing guard at Paradise Mansion. The special forces are still searching for the shooter. While Anthony was still asleep on his bed and the doctors were monitoring his condition, Arnold, Aaron, Andy, Abraham, and Adam were in the main room. They were discussing the family meeting and Anthony's condition. "The family meeting will be held in two days at this house. I've contacted Arka and Anita. They agree with the decision. They will also come as soon as possible," Abraham said. Aaron cheered happily in his heart. The plan was going very smoothly without any obstacles. Initially, he thought Abraham would reject his proposal, but his uncle unexpectedly proposed first. Aaron and Andy felt happy and annoyed at the same time. They were happy that Anthony wouldn't limit their space. However, they were also annoyed that Arnold seemed so happy. They also wondered if he would fulfil his promise to give them an island in Emerald Place. Adam clenched his fists tightly, hol
Althon left the island a few minutes later. He observed the island for some time, looking up at the star-studded sky. "I've learned a lot of things while training on the island." Althon clenched his fists tightly. "It was a valuable experience for me. I've been waiting for the meeting day to arrive for a long time, and I won't let all my efforts go to waste. I will destroy those three scum and drag them to hell."Althon closed his eyes tightly, feeling a gust of wind. All the events in his life instantly popped into his mind. A few months ago, he was just a poor man alone. Everything changed when he met Alan and Anthony. Althon arrived at Arthur and Adele's house early in the morning. His parents greeted him in the courtyard with their guards. "Althon, we're glad you're back." Adele hugged Althon tightly, crying bitterly. "You've fought so hard all this time.""Althon." Arthur touched Althon's shoulder. "The family meeting is tomorrow. You must be ready."Althon touched Arthur and
[Althon, help me][A man is bothering me][I'm in Star Heaven now][I'm scared]Althon rushed out of the small restaurant when he received a message from his girlfriend, Alicia. He got on his electric bike, put on his helmet, and prepared to leave. The food stall owner suddenly came out of the door. "Where are you going, asshole? You have to deliver an important order now.""I'm sorry, sir. I have to leave now. A jerk bullied my girlfriend, and she needs me now." Althon sped the electric bike onto the highway. "I'm the one who needs you now! If you're not back in three, I'll fire you! Hey!"Althon threw his hat at the bald man. "I quit."Althon ignored the tavern owner's ramblings, overtaking several vehicles quickly. He and Alicia had been dating for four months. Alicia was beautiful and charming, and he was lucky that she was willing to accept him as her lover even though he only worked as a food delivery person with a small salary. Their first meeting was in high school. Alici
"Go away, Althon!" said Agnes, one of Alicia's best friends. "Don't ruin this party with your presence. Look at you. We came in fancy clothes while you came in your dirty, smelly work uniform." "Leave before I beat you up!" Kevin, one of Alvin's best friends, shouted. He suddenly shut up when Althon gave him a sharp look.Althon gritted his teeth, trying to control his ragged breathing. He was often treated unfairly and humiliated in public, but he didn't accept this. Althon approached Alicia and Alvin. "W-what are you going to do, asshole? Get out of this place now!" Alvin took a step back. He was scared when he saw Althon's cold gaze. He had stopped bullying Althon after the man had beaten up his bodyguards and friends during his school days. He only dared to bully him through insults. "Alicia, have you been playing me all this time?" Althon asked. Alicia rolled her eyes. "If I was playing you, what would you have done to me, Althon? Are you going to beat me up? You should be g
