You Have No Rights!

"Grandpa?" After a moment's surprise, Ariana hurried over. "I have something important to ask you. So please answer honestly."

"Everyone here works for me. My orders are absolute, and no one can influence them. Even if you're my granddaughter, you can't speak for them, let alone make decisions!" However, Grand Master Grant gave Ariana a sharp look and continued the previous topic. He was angered by Ariana's bullying of the butler, his confidant.

"Grandpa," Ariana muttered, not expecting his response.

"You're an adult, you should control your temper and not always bully others. This is different from your home. You can't act as you please," Grand Master Grant continued as he stepped over to the sofa and sat on it.

Ariana was transfixed. She swallowed hard and then turned around, gave her grandfather a quizzical look, and stepped timidly closer. "I want to ask you something."

Grand Master Grant didn't respond, making Ariana try to continue. "My divorce went well. But Ethan became different, even daring to talk to the media. Grandpa, did you give him compensation that I don't know about?"

"A car... he's wearing an expensive car that looks brand new. Is that from you?"

Grand Master Grant took a slow breath and stood up, stuffing both hands into his pants pockets. "What I gave him was what he deserved. There's no need to think about this anymore. The important thing is that you don't hurt each other anymore."

"If there's nothing more to discuss, you should go home. I want to rest," he continued as he walked away.

"Grandpa! Wait! I'm not done yet!" shouted Ariana, who Grand Master Grant ignored. "What did you give him? No! You should have discussed this with me first. He doesn't deserve any compensation at all! Grandpa!"

"Grandpa! Tell me first before leaving! Grandpa!" Unfortunately, no matter how loudly Ariana screamed out, the Old Man seemed to fall on deaf ears and continued walking up the stairs.

"Miss, stop yelling, you'll hurt your throat." At such a time, butler Liam spoke with great concern.

Ariana turned around with an angry face. Without responding to his words, she walked away haughtily.

Liam's butler couldn't help but flash a faint smile and return to his work.

Having just entered her car, Ariana received bad news from her secretary, making her hit the steering wheel irritably before driving to the office.

In the training room, Ethan practiced martial arts with a man who was one of the bodyguards.

After learning a few things over a long period of time, the two decided to fight in the ring to make Ethan's training more fruitful.

"You don't have to hesitate. I may not be able to match your strength yet, but you should treat me as if I were your opponent. Don't hold back and do your best," Ethan said as he warmed up.

The man referred to as Lion 3 nodded in understanding, a designation for the bodyguard at Grand Master Kinsey's side.

Then they stepped closer to each other and did the signal. Their gazes were both focused with very serious expressions. Lion 3 made the first attack by aiming his fist at Ethan's face, but he quickly swatted it away. But unexpectedly, Lion 3 delivered a follow-up attack by punching Ethan in the chest and then tripping his leg, knocking him to the ground.

Ethan winced in pain and got up. He looked more serious than ever. However, facing someone as experienced as Lion 3 overwhelmed him, and he continued to fall.

Ethan's breath caught as he lay on his back on the left side of the arena. "I can't go on like this. My grandfather was a gangster leader. How can I, his grandson, be so weak?"

Determined, Ethan rolled to the side and tried to get up with all his might. "That's right. Victory is only mine."

The eyes that were once filled with seriousness have now turned hateful. The way he looked at Lion 3 also changed, as if he was staring at an enemy he desperately wanted to get rid of.

This time, it was Ethan who attacked first. With determination and confidence, he continued to move confidently. He dodged quickly when attacked and then unleashed a flurry of unexpected attacks. Lion 3 might not have believed Ethan's transformation. Eventually, the wide-eyed man fell and was pushed to the side of the cage.

Suddenly, there was a resounding sound of applause. Suddenly, Ethan, neutralizing his breath, immediately turned his head and found Grand Master Kinsey sitting in a chair with two bodyguards on either side. I don't know how long he had been there, but the old man looked like he was watching a show.

"Even though you've fallen a few times, as a beginner, you're already very outstanding," said Grand Master Kinsey as he stood up, holding his staff with both hands.

"Since when have you been there?" asked Ethan as he turned to help Lion 3 up and stepped down from the arena. "I need to practice more often so I can achieve satisfactory results. That match, you can forget it. It was embarrassing."

Gran5dmaster Kinsey chuckled softly and patted Ethan's shoulder. "I like your spirit and ambition."

"But you should know that Lion 3 has outstanding martial arts skills. He's in the top ten of the most trusted bodyguards by my side. Just being able to knock him down is an extraordinary achievement. This is not embarrassing, it can be used as a comparison for your next match."

Ethan's face looked doubtful. He glanced at Lion 3, who was not far away from him, then looked back at his Grandfather.

"I told him to be your tutor because his character is much better than the others. I'm sure that you can get along with him so that your training becomes easier. Ethan, keep training with him and become someone invincible," continued Grandmaster Kinsey.

"Trust me and see for yourself. Let alone beating him, you can beat even those above him."

"What about beating you?" Suddenly, Ethan's expression turned into a grin. He glanced at the stick his Grandfather was holding with a smile on his face. "I think the answer is obvious."

After that, he walked away, leaving a furious growling Grand Master Kinsey and the other three looking at each other with their heads bowed.

"Insolent grandson! Do you want me to return you to your foster mother?" Great Lord Kinsey's voice sounded thunderous.

Suddenly, Ethan's steps stopped. Next, he turned around and stepped quickly back to the Old Man's side and helped him walk. "Grandfather, are you really friends with those five Zenith Corp clients who are said to be very important and cannot be offended? I plan to meet them."
