After Lucy Payseur left, David and Liam talked for a lot of time.Kyra acted like she couldn’t hear them, but her ears were focusing on their conversation. After they finished their talk and left, Kyra found herself sighing and shaking her head, “Listening to their talk brought me a headache.”Connie brought coffee to her.“I mean, Connie, how can there be clones? David must be out of his mind, right?” Kyra said. “The technology hasn’t progressed that far.”Connie stood there silently for a second and said, “I’ve never spoken to this with anyone, not even my husband or children, but since you talked about this, I’ll tell you.”“Mm?” Kyra’s gaze focused on Connie.“My dad told me that I was not born to him and his wife,” Connie said. “I was not born in a woman’s womb, either, but rather an artificial one. About seventy years ago, when it was still taught in schools that the earth is flat, my Dad worked on Coney island. He was married, but he couldn’t have any children, so he brought me
Lucy Payseur was traveling in an olive green Bentley Mulsanne. She received a text message from her brother, asking how Kyra Lynn was.“Is he planning to make her his Xth wife or something?” Lucy could only shake his head. “Why is he my elder brother? If I was born first, I would have put him under my foot. Tsk, life really isn’t fair.”The Payseur family strictly followed the rule of giving everything to the first child, who would then take care of others. So, Lucy basically didn’t own anything of her family and had to live off of her brother’s grace and mercy and what not.This was why she had always wanted to marry someone and get out of her brother’s complete control. But the worst part was that she was only allowed to marry the guy that both her brother and her dad would give consent to.To this day, nobody that she chose was also selected by them.“Elisin will happily keep me a bachelor for the rest of my life,” Lucy began to bite her nails. “I must get the Lynn family to surren
Lucy smiled at Rebecca’s words. “It seems you really treasure this house, so much so your brain is not able to see the danger you’re in. If this house is really worth more than your life, then I’m going to raze it to the ground. Your building that is.” Saying that Lucy began to walk away. “Watch out for the so-called fire you talked about. Be awake 24 hours of the day, as danger can come from any direction. Any second.”Lucy walked out of the villa, and the driver glared at Selena and Rebecca before leaving.“These scoundrels… how dare they treat us like this?” Selena snorted. “But we must find out what that woman’s background is. If she’s really as dangerous as she says she is, then…”Rebecca briefly glanced at her mother. “This villa is mine. If you want to sell it, you can do it over my dead body.” Saying that she went back upstairs.“Tsk,” Selena could only shake her head.Lucy was about to enter into her Bentley car but then she noticed a silver sports car that was parked in the
The next morning.Russell woke up and was very surprised to see his channel’s subscribers growing exponentially. The recent videos he released regarding the Creed Zone, and the livestreams he did there went viral.His subscriber count crossed the eighty thousand mark, which sort of overwhelmed and even scared him.Russell was experienced with editing videos, and he had his own style. Many readers complimented his editing skills, and it made him happy.But still, a lot more people asked him to go to the Creed Zone again and make more videos. Some other asked him if he was able to get an autograph from Regan Creed.“That’s right. I haven’t taken his autograph,” Russell thought. “I still have the card he gave me. I should give it back to him since it can get dangerous if it falls in wrong hands. Next time I meet him, I’ll perhaps get his autograph. Mm?” He looked at his mom who was reading a newspaper. “What are you so intently reading about?”“Nothing,” she put the paper down and was wa
“Hahaha, this is what I wanted,” Lucy was laughing while sitting at the dining table and having breakfast with the Heller family.Even Charlotte was sitting at the table, and she didn’t look all that happy.“I really want to see Liam’s face and my brother’s face right now,” Lucy added. “My brother must have realized by now that I was behind it. That’s why I switched off my phone for now.” She was laughing, but no one else laughed along with her. “Why aren’t you all laughing? Aren’t you all happy, too?”“Hahaha, we’re happy,” Stacy also laughed along. Harry also forced himself to laugh.Roddick, however, just couldn’t do such a stupid and embarrassing thing. He looked at Charlotte and asked, “Why didn’t you give permission to destroy the lands that Kyra owns?”“Because she’s my daughter, you fool,” Charlotte coldly blurted. “Our goal was to put Liam in his place. We don’t have to hurt Kyra for it.”“Tsk, you talk like you care for her, but you are part of the reason her marriage was br
Regan was talking with Ross Raer.“This is the deal, Mr. Regan,” Ross said. “You’ll still own ten percent of Creed Tech company after all this. Of course, in the eyes of the world, the company will forever be yours. It’s just that Sir Elsin wants to have this company come under his authority, not just because he sees great potential in your Dream Creed game but for a lot of other reasons.”“I’ve already shown him my middle finger,” Regan replied patiently. “So why did he send a double-tongued snake like you now?”Ross forced out a smile. “Your audacity is inspiring, Mr. Regan, but think about what’s going to happen if you keep refusing to side with the crown. I’m sure the federal agency will be over your company just like how they’re sending lots of tax return documents to Liam’s companies recently. Liam must be gnashing his teeth at them every hour of the day. At least, he’s still not old unlike you. Do you also want to grind your teeth at such an old age? I personally suggest that y
On the same evening after Jessica had spoken with Regan, Jessica was about to go home.And she overheard the people talking about something interesting. On top of that, they came to her and asked her, “Since when was Boss Regan planning for this?”“Why didn’t you tell us?”Jessica could only force out a smile and tell them, “I can’t tell you everything, because most of the time, I’m not allowed to reveal information.”After they went away, Jessica took the stairs instead of using the elevator just so she could avoid talking with others.“Sir Regan launched a new streaming website exclusively used for Dream Creed?” Jessica checked the website on her mobile, and its features were mind-boggling. The user interface was so much more advanced than any website she had ever seen. “T-This isn’t that user-friendly. Most people might have a difficult time getting started. Is that why he released it many days before the game was even released?”But Jessica couldn’t digest that she didn’t know abo
The next morning.When Elora woke up, she saw Russell streaming a video live, sharing his video editing experience. There were more than 4000 people watching.Elora came and straight away shut the laptop, leaving him in shock. “Mom! Why did you do that?”“Why?” Elora coldly glared at him. “You are not sleeping enough these past three days. I know you got a lot of new viewers, but health comes first. Everything else comes afterward.”“If you stop the stream like that, what would they think?” Russell retorted. “They’ll unsubscribe and leave.”“Then let them leave. If they can’t even let you get some sleep, then it’s better for you to never know them,” Elora said. “Do you still remember what I told you when you said you wanted to pursue vlogging as a career?”Russell paused for a second and said, “Aspire for things you don’t have, but be satisfied with what you get.”“You can’t ever be satisfied if you try to please everyone,” Elora blurted. “Go and get some sleep now.”“B-But what about
