The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 23
“Who the hell are you?!”Jeremiah turned around to face the man in the changing room with him.He saw that the man was a staff member of the store and after a quick scan, he realized that the door the man had just walked out of led to the restroom and, because he had a mop and a bucket in his hands, it meant that he had just finished cleaning it.Jeremiah looked at the man’s name tag and saw the name Brad.Brad looked at Jeremiah from head to toe, and he sneered with disgust.He put the mop into the bucket and said “I asked you a question, so are you deaf and can’t hear me or are you just too retarded to form an answer?”“I was going to tell you my name, but not after you'd spoken to me like that,” Jeremiah frowned. He didn’t appreciate Brad’s tone of voice and his choice of words.Brad, on the other hand, scoffed.“Such big words coming from a—“ Brad said, then noticed the suit on the couch beside Jeremiah.“Wait a minute!

“What’s going on here—?” Brad asked but was cut off by a punch so strong it sent a tooth flying out of his mouth and almost knocked him out. The bodyguards dragged Rogan and Brad to Kingston, who stood beside Jeremiah, then they forced the two workers of the store to go on their knees. Looking at how terrible the situation he was in was, Rogan’s heart started pounding in his chest like it was about to explode. “Mister Kingston, I sincerely apologize for—“ “Shut your mouth,” Kingston said coldly, and Rogan held his mouth. “Sir, what’s going on? Who are these people?” Brad asked, feeling so much pain in his mouth that was bleeding seriously. “You idiot. You just doomed us both!” Rogan glared at Brad. If stares could kill, Brad would have been dead and buried by then. “I’ve doomed us both? But what did I do—?” Brad asked, but Kingston cut him off. “I didn’t quite hear what you said when you talked about the young master. What did you call him again?” Kingston asked. B

Just as Jeremiah was halfway done showering, he suddenly heard the changing room door open.“It’s me, Mister Jeremiah. I’ve come with the clothes you’re going to wear in place of the one that got ruined by my staff and the water he poured you. I brought a few which I’ll be leaving on the couch, so when you’re done cleaning up, give them a try and pick the one you want after you’ve checked out the suit I also left on the couch” Rogan said as he dropped the clothes on the couch like he said. He walked over to the restroom door and said “As for the body towel, it’s right here on the doorknob so you can easily reach for it when you’re done showering”Rogan hung the hundred percent pure cotton white towel on the knob and made sure it wouldn’t fall even when Jeremiah twisted the knob to open the door. Because of how great and comfortable the towel was, the selling price was two hundred dollars, but here was Jeremiah being given for a one-time use only.That just shows how much effort Roga
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 27
The moment Jeremiah and his entourage came out of the High Fashion Emporium, the people on the road who had been waiting for him to come out so they could get a view of his identity, scrambled and stretched their necks trying to get a glimpse of his face. Because they had missed the opportunity to look at him when he entered the store, they were going to make sure they made up for that and do it now. Their phones and cameras were already set to take a barrage of photos and videos the moment they saw him. Unfortunately, the moment they tried to find Jeremiah amongst the people who came out of the store, they were met with some serious challenges. The first challenge was the same one they faced last time which was that the cars and the entourage outside the store blocked their view. Silver had taken charge immediately after Kingston went inside the store with Jeremiah and she organized the remaining members of the convoy to make sure that none of the hungry bystanders got the

He proceeded to enjoy the drive until finally, they arrived at the airport and parked in front of the private jet that had been designated for the journey to meet his father. Standing by the jet and waiting for Jeremiah’s arrival were the pilot and a couple of beautiful flight attendants whose uniforms accentuated their figures perfectly. Their faces were also very beautiful, each flight attendant looking like she could walk an international runway The driver of the middle jeep and the captain of the bodyguards who was in the passenger seat both came out of the car and opened the backseat doors for Jeremiah and Kingston while everyone in the convoy came down to bid them goodbye. Jeremiah and Kingston came out of the car then, along with the Captain of the bodyguards who carried Jeremiah’s suit, they approached the pilot and the flight attendants who were all on one knee with their heads bowed to Jeremiah. “Good morning, Young Master Jeremiah. My name is Adam Gale and I’ll be

A couple of minutes later, the jet landed in the hangar and the trio, Jeremiah, Kingston, and his personal guard, Steven, went down. A security detail and a convoy far greater than the one that had picked Jeremiah from his apartment had already been waiting for their arrival.Everyone in the convoy greeted Kingston and when they were informed of who Jeremiah was, they went on their knees and did the usual greeting which Jeremiah accepted, and then told them to stand up.After that, they all entered the cars and drove away. The moment they got to the main roads and drove through populated areas, Jeremiah noticed that the people who saw the convoy all had happy expressions on their faces as they waved at the convoy. It was like they recognized the convoy, and who it belonged to, and were happy to see it pass by.That sight made Jeremiah realize how loved his family must be to garner such reactions, because even the president of a country wouldn’t get such a magnanimous amount of love

Elizabeth took Jeremiah upstairs.“Your room, young master,” Elizabeth said as she opened the door to Jeremiah’s room, and when he saw the inside, his eyes widened so much that they almost came out of their sockets. Jeremiah walked in first, then she followed, leaving the door open while Jeremiah looked in awe at how wonderful the room was. “This is only a temporary arrangement. If I had been informed before your arrival, I would have pulled out all the stops to make sure you got an even bigger and better room, but please manage this young master,” Elizabeth said, and Jeremiah looked at her with shock.“What is it, young master?” She asked.Jeremiah chuckled.“If you knew where I am coming from, you wouldn’t have said what you just did. This room is amazing” Jeremiah said, and the headmaid blushed. “By the way, my name is Jeremiah. If you’re going to keep calling me Young Master, then you should at least know my actual name too,” Jeremiah said, as he walked deeper into the room to

The auctioneer opened the box fully and everyone saw what had been inside the whole time.“It’s a… plastic eyeball? Huh?” The auctioneer said, acting and sounding surprised as he looked at the content of the box twice to make sure he hadn’t made a mistake. ‘Why is a plastic eyeball in here?’ The auctioneer thought.Just then, a commotion erupted as the bidders complained, letting their frustrations and anger known. “A plastic eye? What the hell?” One of the bidders said.“Is this some kind of joke? We waited through all that bullshit just for a fucking plastic eyeball?! Do we look like children or something?” Another bidder complained. “Is that what we are expected to pay ten million dollars for? A stinking plastic eyeball?! Since when did this auction start doing comedy shows between the presentations?”“Whosever idea this is better get fired for pissing us off ‘cause what the actual fuck?! In fact, bring them out here so I can give them a piece of my mind!”The auctioneer panicke
CHAPTER 293
The auctioneer wasted no time to open the box but when he tried to do it, he realized that he couldn’t.“What the?” He asked himself, grimacing with confusion. “Maybe I didn’t do it right. Let me try again” He tried to open the box again but like before the lid wouldn’t budge and the auctioneer started to get annoyed.“What’s going on here? Didn’t they say that it wasn’t going to be locked so why can’t I open it?” He complained in a low voice, making sure the microphone attached to his ear couldn’t pick up what he was saying, then he looked at the bidders who were starting to have concerned expressions.The auctioneer could see the bidders' already minimal interest in the mystery item gradually vanish, which lit a spark in him to fix the situation as quickly as possible.“Hey,” the auctioneer turned his head to the left and called to the staff who had given him the box. “Yes, sir?” The staff shifted closer to the auctioneer."I remember vividly being told that the freaking box would
CHAPTER 292
Jeremiah had his hand on his chin.He focused on what was under the cloth and tried using his heightened senses to see if he could figure out anything about it besides the fact that it was a box. With his hearing, which was greater than a bat’s, Jeremiah had what could only be described as radar— the type used in science fiction movies to know exactly what something was just by sound alone.“Huh?” Jeremiah said after he had tried using his radar as best as he could but realized that it wasn’t working.Well, not that it wasn’t working as he could picture everything else in the area that wasn’t in his field of vision with the radar but the item underneath the cloth that was to be auctioned was undeterminable.‘What’s this? Why can’t my senses pick up anything?’ Jeremiah asked himself, finding it very strange.He focused even harder, using the fullest range of his radar, which allowed him to have what could only be called omniscience as he could perceive everything in the room, but stil

“For the next item, I have to inform everyone that there’s a little treat or should I say catch to it as that’s the correct term to use here,” The auctioneer said and the other bidders groaned in confusion as complaints flew everywhereUsually, all the rules are given at the start of the auction so why was the auctioneer trying to bring something new now? The bidders wondered and weren’t appreciative of what was happening.“What exactly do you mean by that?” One of the other bidders asked just as the worker with the item to be auctioned stepped forward.“First of all Master Xavier, I know that this is very unconventional but the client that provided us with this item explicitly instructed that we should start the bidding price at ten million dollars. The second thing they requested is that we give it to the first person who makes a bid for it which means that there isn’t going to be a competition for who can pay the most as whoever raises their paddle first wins the item. We are also
CHAPTER 290
All the other bidders squeezed their paddles furiously and growled at the disrespect they just received. How dare a young lady like Martha talk to elderly men who ranged from a few years to some decades older than her like that?Besides Jeremiah, she was the youngest person in the room but at the same time, she had the gull to speak so confidently.Was she looking down on them just because her master spent thirty million dollars on a quill? How Ludacris of her to have this level of hubris they thought.They will show her what they are made of… was what they all had in mind as they turned away from her to face the auctioneer and went ahead to make their counteroffers.Each counteroffer was with an addition of one to three million dollars and every time someone counter-offered, the auctioneer would state Andrew’s automatic counteroffer of an additional five hundred thousand dollars to the last called amount. Anytime he does that, the other bidders would look at Martha to see if she has
CHAPTER 289
“Mister Andrew, your quill will be waiting to be collected immediately after the auction or delivered to anywhere of your choice if you don’t want to leave with it yourself. Just have your assistant provide us with a location and our company will bring it to you as soon as possible” The auctioneer said while looking at Andrew and Martha“Thank you” Andrew replied.The auctioneer faced the rest of the audience and said “That was just the start of our extremely thrilling and captivating auction so if you missed achieving that prize then do not fret, I have more impressive items behind me as you can rightfully see. With that being said, please bring forth the next item”Immediately after the auctioneer finished calling for the next item, the worker with a long box came forward and then held it up for the auctioneer who opened it and showed that it was a sword inside.This sword was known as the sharpest sword in the entire world. It had a black handle with gold patterns on it. There was
CHAPTER 288
Everyone who stared at Martha wondered what master she could be talking about but there were only two options which were Jeremiah or the man sitting next to him.To them, it couldn’t have been Jeremiah because for one thing, they saw him come into the auction alone and secondly, he didn’t have the charisma that matched someone like Martha.That only left Andrew who they looked at, gracefully sitting with his legs crossed and busy looking bored instead of focusing on the auction.Yes, Andrew looked like someone who would be Martha’s master but that raised a good question; why was Jeremiah sitting between her and Andrew?Just then, some of the bidders who remembered Jeremiah and Martha switching seats and Jeremiah speaking with Andrew spoke, making those who hadn’t been paying attention to the three realize what had happened, providing an answer to their question.The auctioneer, who was just as shocked as everyone to hear such a price jump that went almost three times the original firs
CHAPTER 287
“The first thing my mentor told me was that somewhere out there in the world there’s always going to be someone better than you in some and maybe even all regards. You just have to behave with that thought in mind, always. The second thing he told me is, don’t let what you already know be the wall that you stand on to show your confidence because someone else can come around and turn you into Jericho. An example of that is what Martha just did for you. Take these two lessons and grow my friend” Andrew said and Jeremiah’s face became serious.‘Those things sound somewhat similar to what Obadiah told me when he started training me in magic. What a weird coincidence. Whoever Andrew’s mentor is, I’m sure he is a really cool person’ Jeremiah thought.Jeremiah nodded “Alright sir, I’ll engrave all the lessons I’ve learned from the both of you to heart and arrange my next steps accordingly,” he said.Andrew and Martha smiled, happy to have imparted such great lessons to someone like Jeremiah
CHAPTER 286
“So who are these associates of yours that told you about—?“ Jeremiah asked but Andrew cut him off with a hand gesture that said he should stop talking.“Hush for a moment. You might miss something important when it eventually comes up so no more talking. You are here to bid like everyone else so pay attention” Andrew said, pointing at the auctioneer before ending his and Jeremiah’s handshake. He then turned his entire body towards the podium, resting his back on his chair, and paid attention.Jeremiah, who found figuring out the identity of Andrew’s associates just as important as anything the auctioneer was going to say or bring out because the way Andrew dismissed his question seemed kind of suspicious— like he was trying to hide that information— didn’t want to just give up having his questions answered like that.He also only wanted the magical items that would be brought out among the many items being auctioned— which he had a feeling would be among the last items, so he felt l
