Alvin couldn't hold back his emotions anymore. “You ....”Noah instantly covered Alvin's mouth, clenching his fists tightly. He cursed Althon with swearing in his heart. "Althon, you've soaked my shirt and Alvin's. You were careless in your work. I hope you don't make repeated mistakes that hurt someone."Noah pulled Alvin toward the elevator. "Calm down, Alvin. It's just a small problem. We can change our clothes. We still have some time before we meet with Mr. Sean. I'm sure Mr. Sean sent Althon to test us. If we act badly, we'll be kicked out of this place right away."Alvin observed his drenched appearance. His face was very red, and he was breathing heavily. “You're right, Noah.”Alvin and Noah hurried to change in the restroom. They went through the long hallway, looking for Althon. “Althon's not in this hallway.” Noah looked around. "The floor is neat and clean. He... worked very quickly."The workers suddenly walked out of the room, walking towards Alvin and Noah.“What happe
“Mr. Sean.”Alvin and Noah were very tense when they heard James' voice. Sean had contacted their father. Sean explained, “Alvin and Noah agreed to my terms. I will lift the Julian family's punishment based on Alvin and Noah's performance. If they work very well for two months, I will lift the punishment of entering Emerald Place. If they work harder and better in the following months, I will lift the Julian family's punishment completely.""Thank you, Mr. Sean. I appreciate your kindness. I'm sure Alvin and Noah will do their job very well."Sean hung up the phone. "Your father and family have high hopes for you. Your performance will determine the future of you and your families. You must make the most of this opportunity."Alvin and Noah leaned over, staring blankly. They saw darkness for six months of their lives. “Thank you, sir.”"You will start work tomorrow. My subordinates will send you the details of your assignments later. Get out of my office now and prepare yourselves as
Althon returned home after Arnold left. He felt very annoyed even though he only heard and saw his uncle from afar. “Grandpa, are you okay?” Althon asked as he approached, sitting next to Anthony.Anthony let out a long breath. "I'm fine, Althon. Arnold seems to have visited without telling me first. We should be more careful."“I understand, Grandpa.” Althon suddenly became pensive. He felt his chest tighten as he recalled his parents' story from Anthony. "I will avenge all your crimes. I will never forgive you.""Arnold asked me to visit his house and my other sons. In addition, he asked me to move the family gathering forward. He wants the family meeting to be held in two months."“Why did he do that, Grandpa?”"Arnold wants me to hand over the Leander family heir status to him immediately. He was very ambitious to become the family heir. He even went so far as to plot the murder of you and your parents, Althon."Anthony suddenly burst into tears, touching his suddenly tight chest
Arnold, Aaron, and Andy would often meet Anthony unannounced. Althon was very annoyed that he could do nothing but hide in a safe place. After the visit of his three uncles, Anthony's condition would worsen. Althon channeled his anger into studying and practicing very hard. He rarely took a day off. Althon was practicing martial arts in the large courtyard with several bodyguards. It was almost frustrating that he could never beat them. The fighting suddenly stopped when Alan entered the arena. "Young Master, Mr. Aaron is visiting with Mr. Andrew and Mr. Aldhen this afternoon. They are still on their way now. Master Anthony asked me to take you to safety." Althon snorted in annoyance. “They pissed me off so much.” Althon hurried to hide in the forest, continuing his training in the arena. Ten minutes later, a group of cars pulled up in front of the terrace. Aaron, Andrew, and Aldhen got out of the car, hugging Anthony in turn. Anthony pretended to be happy even though he w
Althon and Anthony had dinner in silence. The rain was pouring down heavily. Lightning boomed several times, and the wind blew very hard. Althon felt very angry about his current situation. He felt like a useless figure when Anthony was distressed by the arrival of his sons and grandchildren. “Althon, I have important information for you,” Anthony said after taking a sip of his drink. “You must listen carefully.”Althon put down his cutlery. “Sure, Grandpa.”"I know you're depressed about your current situation. However, you must remember that everything in this world has its time. Don't think that your efforts in training and learning are useless. You've shown a huge change from when you first came to this mansion."Althon listened intently. "Althon, I have received a report on your training and learning. You've shown remarkable results. I honestly didn't expect you to have changed so much."Anthony smiled. “Althon, I'm going to give you an assignment to measure your mastery of bu
Althon hugged Anthony before leaving for his assignment. He was worried about his grandfather, but he knew Anthony would get worse if he stayed at home. "Grandpa, I'm going to miss you so much. I'll see you when I'm done,” Althon said. “I'm sure you can do it, Althon.” Anthony turned to Alan for a moment. "Alan will be with me while you run errands. Someone will take over his duties while he is at home. "A man suddenly approached and bowed to Althon. "I am Ali, your new trusted assistant, Young Master. I will take over Alan's duties as best I can.""Ali is Alan's cousin. He is the son of one of your father's confidants, Althon. Alan directly appointed Ali to take over his duties. He's been working abroad all this time. He rushed home after I asked him to take care of you. Do you mind?""Of course not, Grandpa. You and Alan trust Ali, and I have no reason not to. He seems strong and reliable." Althon was increasingly convinced that this assignment was to keep him away from home. Th
The punks came in droves from the end of the street. They followed their leader who walked ahead. The pedestrians immediately moved away from the scene. "You bastards! Don't kill anyone! I don't want the hassle!” shouted a policeman at a post close to the fight site. He entered the post, watching television with his friends. “Those punks number sixty.” Althon scanned the hologram screen, turning to Ali. “Ali seems very calm.”"You son of a bitch! I heard you beat my men unconscious." The bald-haired man spat, glaring at Ali. The punks sneered at Ali behind their leader. "I am the ruler of the streets of Lovatown. I will not forgive someone who has made a mess of my place." The bald man spat again, pulled out a knife from his pants pocket, and smiled fiercely. "I'm not a bad person though. I'll let you go after you apologize and give me a hundred thousand dollars. If you refuse, I'll finish you off in this place."The gang leader eyed the car. "You come from a wealthy family. One
Althon arrived at the office half an hour before work started. However, he did not see any employees until an hour later. Employees started showing up an hour after work time. “So, you're the new janitor?” said a man in his thirties, observing Althon. "You're quite handsome and dashing for a janitor. You could probably work as a model or a male entertainer. A handsome face is useless if you don't have money and position."“You're right, sir.” Althon did agree with the man's words because he had experienced it for years.The man named Jay laughed. "Follow me. I'll introduce you to the other officers. I hope you do well."“Yes, sir.” Althon walked along the corridor, observing the relaxed-looking employees in each room. “They chat and even watch movies during work hours.”Jay turned his head for a moment, laughing. "I'll tell you something. You must do your job well and stay out of the employees' business. The owner of this company never comes to supervise our work."“I don't know your
