Tony drove into Tutfold PLC with numerous thoughts running through his mind. His eyes were quite red due to the sleepless night he had. He glanced at the tall building and his mind brought him a memory of the last time he had visited the company.It was him and his elder brother, Alfred. They had come to submit a proposal for a contract then. It was a $100 million project, but sadly, they weren't given the chance to get into the company because the Wendy Group was at the bottom of the social ladder. The security men were so strict and tough on them, they only allowed companies with high levels in the city.Now, he's here again. Their company is still struggling to climb up the social ladder, but they were a bit bigger now. Fortunately, he was allowed into the company because the ongoing contract is open to everybody.Tony took it upon himself to submit the proposal because he was the one who suggested getting the loan from Mr. Huge. If not for that, he might have stayed back. Tutfold
Meanwhile, Tony was still in the reception waiting for a reply since he had submitted the proposal. Almost all the people he met there had left. It was just him and a few other people remaining.To his utmost surprise, all the proposals that were submitted got a chance. With that, he had the positivity in mind to smile all the way home.His body couldn't contain the joy running through his mind. He couldn't even explain this to himself. It would be an evergreen record in his family to be the first person to win a contract from Tutfold PLC. It wouldn't be just a win for him alone but for his whole family.He had a picture of how Granny would be so much happier with him in his mind. He believed this win would be an open door for them in Tutfold PLC. Once the contract was approved, they would keep on winning more contracts from the company over and over, and eventually, the Wendy Group would grow to a better level in the city too.________________________In Camilla's office, she had bee
"What came over me to say all that trash to the innocent lady?" Tony's heart was so baffled as he harshly questioned himself."What do I even think of myself in front of Tutfold PLC? Even the entire Wendy Group is nothing." he hissed and slapped his face hard as he blamed himself."I must have lost my mind in that instant. I deserve to be severely punished." He paused and gritted his teeth tightly, then added, "Anyway, big thanks to my legs, if not..."He scolded himself as he stomped into Granny's spacious living room. He had the proposal documents in his hands, soaked with sweat from his palm.He had thought of throwing the piece of shit away while he was on his way, but he changed his mind and decided to bring it home.How would he explain himself to his family if the security men had caught him? Truthfully, he wouldn't even have made it home. And if, by some luck, he did with swollen eyes and a bleeding nose, it would have been a great shame.As soon as he raised his gaze, he foun
What nonsense did you just say?" Granny yelled at Tony's father, who didn't seem offended by the question but looked ready to explain his point if given the chance.The other members of the family couldn't look Granny in the eyes now because she was so upset, which made her face turn into that of a lion. The anger was all over her face, causing them all to gaze at the floor.Tony's heart skipped a beat; he didn't want any other problems to come from his father again. The one on the ground hadn't been cleared yet, and it was a very tough one. For that, he was quite worried."Do you even know what you're saying at all?" Granny asked again angrily and hissed irritably."Besides, how dare you mention that loser's name in this kind of atmosphere?" Granny was even more furious as she spoke.Tony's father never thought his suggestion would upset Granny so much. He only said that because he thought it would be helpful. Now that Granny found it disrespectful and senseless, he would need to pro
Diana and her mother returned to their apartment after leaving Granny's living room. Diana, at that moment, was already boiling with anger. She was so enraged that she could do something unexpected.Why would her mother place such an impossible task on her shoulders? It's only asking for her to face embarrassing situations from the biggest company in Glover city.Even if her mother wanted her to try, she should have asked for her consent first. Instead, announcing it publicly based on her own opinion.Now that Granny had approved her to go for the submission, she had no excuse but to carry out the assignment.Diana was heading to her room with heavy footsteps, showing her anger before her mother blocked her way."My daughter, why are you so upset?" she asked calmly, staring into her eyes.Diana wanted to say something but paused, crossed her arms over her chest, and ignored her mother."My beloved, talk to me, I'm your mother," she said again, trying to hear from her daughter."But y
David was in his room, dressed in a new suit and expensive shoes. He stood in front of the mirror, admiring himself. He smiled at the mirror and couldn't resist complimenting himself."Damn! I look so good."He turned away from the mirror and checked the time on his new phone. The time was 8:03 AM.He had woken up early because he wanted to visit his company. There were some important things he needed to take care of.Firstly, he had ordered the bodyguards to take Huston and Susan to Camilla's office and they should all wait there until he arrived.He also called Camilla to make arrangements on how Mr. Scott would be in her office before his arrival.David had made a perfect plan. Today is the day! The day he would give his final judgment.Another reason why he needed to visit Tutfold PLC is because he wanted to have a business talk with Camilla about their two billion dollar project that would begin today.Just then, he remembered the available balance in his bank account wasn't up t
Camilla opened her mouth in awe as the deep secret behind the crime she had been investigating for a long time was fully revealed to her in just a second.'How can someone be so heartless and secretive!' This statement echoed in Camilla's head as she remained dumbstruck.Susan, who had been a secret lover with Huston for a long time, was also shocked. Despite their closeness, Huston had never mentioned anything about the fraudulent activity to her.Some time ago, she had been quite surprised by how lavishly he spent because she knew the amount he earned as a salary.How does he get all the money he squanders on her?As for Huston, he had been a womanizer all his life. Due to his love for women, he didn't mind spending his last bit of cash just to please them.He had won countless women's hearts in the past with his extravagant lifestyle. Since he loved to spend on women, he needed to find another source of income aside from his salary to please them.That's where his fraudulent idea b
"Make sure none of them ever get a new job in this city," David declared to Camilla, with so much anger evident in his voice."Consider it done right away, sir," Camilla bowed.She was still surprised by David's friendly judgment of the criminals. She had expected him to send them to jail. Embezzlers deserve to rot in jail.Fortunately, the Young Master was so kind with his judgment on them. He only instructed the bodyguards to take them out of his sight.The peak of what the bodyguards will do to them is to beat them to a stupor and leave them. Is that enough? No! It's not!They have caused a lot of damage to the company in the past. People like them are supposed to live all their lives in pain.The only thing the Young Master added was that he instructed her to make sure they never get a new job, which is the easiest thing for her to do."How is the preparation for the project going?" David inquired with a calm tone.He had cleared the previous dramas from his head so fast. They nee
"Father!! Father!!" David jumped to his feet and yelled."Where are you?!!" He screamed even more loudly.With how emotional David felt at this moment, tears should have started gushing out of his eyes, but the power in him now wouldn't give him the chance.As David couldn't hear any response from his father, he had to accept the reality that his father had truly left the present world for somewhere else.Just then, he ran back to the room where Skyla was. He stared at her for a little while and turned away from her, stomping his feet angrily."Xandros!!" He yelled with gritted teeth. He was so angered that Xandros was the only reason why he couldn't get in touch with all of his loved ones.At this moment, David felt a notification drop on his phone. He fished out the phone and saw several missed calls from Sandra and Jessica.David's brows tightened slightly before he saw some messages from both of them.He opened Jessica's message first, and it read,"I have tried my best to show yo
This caught David's attention, and he walked briskly to his father.David was staring at the beautiful lady who was in a static position within the transparent sphere.Just then, he realized that, despite how beautiful the lady was, the skin from her neck to her feet was extremely wrinkled, which disfigured her beauty.Then, he asked his father in a stuttering state, "Who is she?"The old man shook his head and disclosed, "My son, this is Skyla, your wife."David's eyes widened instantly and were in total confusion about what he had just heard."My wife? How? And why is some part of her skin so horrible? Why is she so static in this sphere?"David's father patted his son's shoulder and said, "I told you earlier that these revelations would be quite strange to you.""Let me explain this to you. As the possessor of the Omnium, your wife must be a person whose soul strength matches yours. Before my father left this Earth, he had marked Skyla as the only lady whose soul strength is capabl
"My son, let me explain better to you," David's father said with a smile.David hurriedly sat next to his father, enthusiastic. He couldn't wait to learn more about his ancestors.The man signaled at the grey-haired man and Helix Magnus, and they both used the door.Then he began to explain, "Helix Magnus is aware that we have been looking for you since a long time ago, most especially at this very moment. That was the reason he quickly informed The Sage about your ability when he saw you at Glover City, which was what helped us to find you today."David heaved a sigh while his father continued to explain, "My son, at this point in your life, I know what you have become."David's body moved slightly, watching his father's lips."I know everything I'm about to explain to you might seem strange to you, but I still have to explain them."David nodded his head, listening."Five centuries ago, the Anderson family broke out of the Zaozao Kingdom and came to dominate this city. Right from th
The door and the name inscribed on it were extremely glittering. This suggested very well that the door was made of pure gold.David was still in doubt about everything the grey-haired man had told him until this time. Nevertheless, thousands of questions still lingered in his mind.David turned his eyes in another direction in the Palace and he could see a big car garage from afar. The space in which exotic cars were packed was up to a hectare of land.Suddenly, he heard the grey-haired man say, "Young Master, I will be so eager to take you around every corner of the Palace. As for now, let's hurry up and meet my master."David's head raised slightly, hiding the little touch of surprise on his face.Even though David already had trillions at his fingertips, this beautiful environment was more captivating than expected. He couldn't take his eyes off it.Just then, David nodded his head and said to the man, "I still need a better explanation for all these.""Very well, Young Master. My
The onlookers were shocked by the scene unfolding before their eyes. Although they couldn't hear the conversation going on between the two of them.They were all shocked to see a whole right-hand man to the greatest kingdom of Apex City, kowtowing to David?! This was beyond their understanding.Meanwhile, at this time, David's interest had become wider in this matter as he remembered that the system had informed him that he would meet his parents anytime soon.Then David mumbled, "My father! My father!"He looked in the direction where the man was kowtowing and ordered him, "Rise!"The man jumped to his feet immediately. Then David asked, "You said you've been looking for me for so many years. Why was it so difficult to find me since then?"The grey-haired man shook his head and heaved a sigh, "Young Master, it's a long story. Hurry up, let's go home. Your father knows more about the story than I do."David's face brightened, "Huh?! Really?!" He asked in surprise."Yes, Young Master!"
The helicopters sent up a cloud of dust and debris in the air as they landed.At this moment, the eyes of the onlookers were filled with anticipation as their attention was glued to the direction where the helicopters had landed.Just then, a set of highly influential-looking men dropped down. They all wore fine-looking uniforms, which made the onlookers sense that they were the guards of the kingdom.They quickly formed a line, and then one of them rushed to the next helicopter. He bowed respectfully before opening the door with a gloved hand.This time, a man in his late 60s dropped down from the helicopter. His appearance was so elegant, and his aura was breathtaking.Despite being in his late 60s, he looked energetic and active.He wore a simple yet classy robe, cinched at the waist with a golden cord. He had long, grey hair falling to his shoulders like a silver mantle. His beard was neatly trimmed, framing his face with a sense of dignity."Hurry up, hurry up, Helix Magnus! Wher
"Does that mean this dude had only been hiding himself from the media all this while?""Why did he decide to hide his identity all this while? He has been doing so great for a long time!"The hall kept on buzzing with whispers and comments.Just then, a voice came up from the crowd at the front seat. It was one of the biggest government officials at the event. He shouted, "Finding out that you are the mysterious man we have all been wanting to know, you deserve a respectful bow!"As soon as he said this, he bowed so respectfully to David. Just as he bowed, every single person in the hall rose to their feet and bowed to David with different chants."You deserve to be honored, the great one.""You are a blessing to our city. You deserve more respect."They were making different comments while David was on the stage, watching the thousands of people bowing to him.Meanwhile, in Lady Wendy's sitting room, all the family members had risen to their feet at this time. The scene unfolding bef
At this moment, Diana's mind was filled with regret. Her face looked so bitter that she shook her head and muttered, "It's so sad that I was so blind to see this day coming."A deluge of tears rolled down her eyes.Diana's mind was soaked with sadness for her foolhardiness. She was lambasting herself for being dishonest to David.It was so sad that she had chosen to be his wife in the past because she had an insight that his future would be fruitful due to his brilliance in high school.However, it was so sad that her impatience and waywardness had landed her in a pit of despair.Deep down in Diana's mind, she knew that she might not have gone astray if her mother had guided her rightly. Sadly, her mother was even the one who had sailed her to the wrong destination.Diana raised her head and sent a glare to her mother, where she was seated. She had a thought of tearing her mother apart in her mind.Surprisingly, Elena was also lost in thought, her eyes red with tears and her face look
Mr. Jason's eyes turned cold, and he nearly rushed to Pauline and slapped her face right away. He wondered what the reason was behind her useless tears.Just then, his gaze fell on the phone before her daughter. He walked close to it and saw a video playing on it.Surprisingly, it was the live stream of the event happening at The Majestic Manor. He saw Camilla giving a speech.As soon as Mr. Jason saw this, the anger in him escalated. Out of control, he yelled at her daughter, "Would you keep your mouth shut? You silly thing!"Vexation was evident in his eyes, and he might fire Pauline on the spot if care was not taken."Do you think your tears are useful now? You spoiled thing!"Pauline raised her head this time, and her eyes had already swollen with tears. She wanted to make a reply, but it was beyond her control when she burst into continuous tears."Keep your mouth shut!" Mr. Jason was angered."I'm sorry, Father. I was so blind to know Mr. David wasn't a commoner like I thought."
