Camilla had the call on speaker as she was speaking with Mr. Phillip. She had explained everything her boss had ordered her to say, and Mr. Phillip had been trying his best to persuade Camilla."Miss, could you please visit our station to help us with further information? I believe you still have a lot to tell us about those criminals," Mr. Phillip had a lot of interest in the case, which was evident in his voice. He had been stressed because of the case and now that he had received helpful information, he didn't want to let Camilla go just like that.Before Camilla made the call, she had first made her number private to avoid any traces of who was calling.David himself planned everything this way because he just wanted to watch all his foes suffer while he hid behind the curtain, seeing them reap what they sowed.David should have just reached out to Camilla over the phone and requested the officer's number, but no, he had other plans. He had invited Camilla over to make the call ri
"It's an honor to have you around, Mr. David." The general manager couldn't control his gleeful smile; he stretched his hand forward for a handshake. He was so happy to see David for the first time.He had to rush to David first while Jessica was speaking with Camilla.Mr. Isaac Greg, the general manager of Cicada Hotel, loves to appreciate customers who patronize their hotel. This is because he knows that there are many other big hotels in the city, such as The Wales Hotel, The Uppertek Hotel, and many more. For that reason, there is a very intense competition among them.One of the strategies Mr. Isaac applied to stay ahead of other hotels is meeting their top customers in person. It doesn't end there; Cicada Hotel also hosts a dinner party once a year, exclusively for their top customers to show appreciation. He believes that all the nice treatment they provide to their customers will make them love the hotel even more.David shook hands with him, trying to figure out who he was. H
Alfred arrived home in the evening after his journey. His facial expression clearly showed how weary and exhausted he was.He got out of the car and forced his legs to walk into Granny's living room. As he entered, his family was in the middle of a serious argument, completely absorbed and not noticing Alfred's entrance.Despite his exhausted state, Alfred tried to figure out what they were arguing about. He squinted his eyes and strained to hear words in the midst of the argument.What surprised him even more was the fact that they were arguing in front of Granny.What disrespect!He was still surprised why the old woman wasn't complaining, only wearing a bitter expression on her face.To his siblings and other family members, it seemed like a crime to speak one after another. Everyone wanted to have their say at the same time.Isn't that crazy? Or are they all high on drugs or something? Can a normal group of people argue like this? How will they get their point across?Alfred was a
He had left the sitting room since they started the unnecessary argument; it wasn't even that crazy when he left."Was that the point he was trying to prove? Or should you apologize to Granny immediately!" Patrick scolded.Upon hearing this, they all exchanged gazes at each other before they all kowtowed in front of the old woman.She didn't even bother to give them a single glance before she muttered in a low voice, "You all should go back to your seats."They insisted at first before the old woman's voice became more intense as she wailed, "Rise and go back to your seats!"Quickly, they stood up and went to their seats not to get the old woman more infuriated.Alfred's father walked closer and asked his son, "Why did the price for the building end up so low?"Alfred turned his gaze to his father as he began to explain, "I've never seen such a problematic situation happen in my life."The whole family fixed their gazes on Alfred upon hearing his first line of the story."This is how
Mr. Phillip and some other policemen were seen at the ward where the criminals were bedded. Since Mr. Phillip received the call yesterday, he couldn't hold his patience any longer. He just can't wait to torture these criminals until they begin to spill out all the secrets.The armed robbers were shocked to see their arrival; they weren't expecting it. The arrival was so sudden and alarming.Some of the armed robbers don't know that they were brought to the hospital by the security agents at first, but since they woke up and found the cuffs in their hands, they came to realize that they have been captured.If not for the help of the security agency, most of them would have eventually crossed to the other side on that day.They didn't even know whether to thank the security agency for helping them to the hospital or they should have just let them lay on the bare floor where the fight happened till their souls finally leave their bodies.In whatever way they thought about it, the fact on
The police officers were blessing the criminals with kicks and slaps as they moved inside the police station until they stopped in front of a door.It's an iron door made of the thickest iron pipe. The door has a space in between that allows both the person inside and outside to see each other.One of the police officers rushed forward and quickly took out the key to the door from his pocket, then opened it wide."Go inside!" Whoosh! Wack! Another thunderous slap followed as they were pushed inside.Once inside, they were freed from the handcuffs as Mr. Phillip peered at them from outside the door, until he called out, "You!" All the criminals were hiding their faces behind each other, before the police officer among them started slapping them on their faces and wailing."Spread out, you fools. Why are you hiding your faces?""Who among them, sir?" The officer's voice was so loud as he asked."The idiot that was frowning earlier." Mr. Phillip pointed at him for clarification, "You, ye
On this sunny afternoon, the entire Wendy villa was as silent as a church. Every member of the family was in their respective apartments except Mrs. Elena, who was in Granny's living room chatting with another relative.Meanwhile, Granny was laying tiredly on her bed in her room. She wasn't tired from waking up early in the morning to go to the market or from doing household chores. She was simply exhausted from everything happening to her family.She had been trying to take a nap on the bed for some time now, but she couldn't. She kept rolling from one side of the bed to the other, hoping to catch some sleep.The old woman desperately needed the rest. Her brain needed it even more. She had been stressing her brain more than usual since all the calamities started happening, which was very dangerous for her health.Granny was a hypertensive patient and had been battling it for years. She managed to live with the help of medications.However, she had been having trouble sleeping for a w
Mrs. Elena was following Granny side by side until they reached the entrance of the large living room. Granny opened the door and saw her children kowtowing.The old woman was shocked to see this and instantly rushed out. Mrs. Elena, on the other hand, walked briskly behind Granny.Granny and Elena were startled when they saw the horrify-looking men Huge had brought this time. Their faces were as bloody like a sharp dagger soaked in blood.They looked like heavyweight boxing champions. Just their chests alone would scare a grown man to death.Granny and Mrs. Elena counted the men with their eyes until they were interrupted by Huge's sudden appearance.He was in one of the exotic cars, waiting for Granny or whoever to come forward so he could demand for his money.He had waited for a few minutes until one of his aides whispered to him that Granny had showed up.Granny glanced at her children, who were on the floor kowtowing. The bouncers' chests had terrified them. They wished the grou
"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."
