The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 38
It was love at first sight, and he knew that she was who he wanted to make his queen. She didn’t have the wealth of his soon-to-be bride or the class or the reputation and power of her family, but he didn’t care about any of that.He wanted her and nothing was going to stand in his way. Not even his wedding. Having a tough decision to make, Reginald thought about what he should do for days, and the closer it got to his wedding, the more stressed he became because he wanted to fulfill his father’s wishes, but he knew that he would regret it for the rest of his life if he let Lauretta go.With that, the decision was made.Reginald canceled the wedding and everyone was left dumbfounded as to why he did that. The father of the lady he was to marry was furious. He tried to challenge Reginald’s decision, but that was a stupid mistake because you do not challenge the king. Reginald had every right to use his power to destroy the man and everything he had ever worked for, but he decided t

After hearing the truth about his family’s past, and everything that led up to him being in his current situation, from Reginald, Jeremiah’s eyes widened. “You can turn around and leave this place right now if that’s what you want. After all, you are our Lord, and none of us can stop you from doing whatever you desire, but as your subject and, most importantly, your father, I suggest that you stay and take up your rightful place, my Lord” Reginald said then he went on his knees and stretched the box with the ring in it to Jeremiah. “Whatever you decide shall be respected, my Lord,” Reginald said and then bowed his head.Jeremiah looked at everyone in the room and how they were all bowing their heads to him then he looked at Reginald who seemed very earnest. Jeremiah looked at the ring inside the box and asked “You said that wearing this ring would bring back my powers, right?”“Yes, my Lord” Reginald replied. Jeremiah groaned.“Okay then,” Jeremiah said then he reached for the rin

The first guard to get close sent a punch at Jeremiah’s head and Jeremiah caught it. He twisted the guard’s hand, spraining his wrist and the guard exclaimed in pain.Next, Jeremiah kicked the guard in the stomach, sending him flying towards Reginald and Kingston, skidding and stopping by their feet.The other nineteen guards didn’t pay attention to their comrade who was sent flying and continued to attack.They threw punches and kicks at Jeremiah but he easily evaded and parried them then took them down one by one. In one minute twenty strong and tall guards attacked Jeremiah and in that same minute, they were defeated, lying on the ground, grumbling and groaning in pain.“Is that all? I thought we were just getting started” Jeremiah said, the blood in his veins pumping with power and adrenaline.Jeremiah looked at the guards standing by the walls, and asked, “Who’s next?” and they all jolted.After seeing what he had done, none of them wanted to step forward and take up that chall

“So, my Lord, where should we start on our tour of the estate? The golf court behind the castle or the greenhouse to the east. We could also start at the planetarium if you’re interested in those types of things. Don’t tell Master Reginald that I told you this, but that is his favorite part of the estate,” Kingston asked as he and Jeremiah walked down the corridor that led to the throne room. “Why is that? Did he want to be an astronaut at one point in his life or something?” Jeremiah chuckled, but then he stopped when he saw the serious look on Kingston’s face.“What is it?” Jeremiah asked.“Master Reginald had that place built shortly after he thought that your mother and you had died in the accident he heard over the phone. He would go there every day and look up into space, trying to find where Lord Crimson could have come from, but he could never find it. I mean, who even knows if Lord Crimson was from space?” Kingston said, and Jeremiah grimaced.“What do you mean? I thought th

Since he wore the ring and his powers—the little that did— came back, Jeremiah’s vision had become far greater than normal.From the distance, he could perfectly see the people inside the two sports cars, and they were all young. They looked like they were about the age of just starting college.What were such young people doing on the estate? Jeremiah wondered. Jeremiah also heard rap music blasting through the speakers of the cars and making noise everywhere as they drove to the front of the castle.It was like they didn’t respect the environment they were in and looking at the servants' faces after the two cars appeared, Jeremiah could see that they too didn’t like it.Jeremiah also saw the servants carrying on with what they were doing like they were used to what was going on and couldn’t do anything about it, which made everything click to him.Only someone close to the King would be allowed to drive into the castle like that, so Jeremiah realized that the people on their way to

The group in front of Jeremiah and Lynette consisted of two guys and two girls, all barely escaping their teens.Immediately, the faces of both guys became one of amazement after getting a good look at Lynette, whose beauty eclipsed the girls they had come with. Who would have thought that they were going to see someone like her on their visit to the estate?Just then, one of the guys with blonde hair named Benson, licked his lip as his expression became lecherous toward Lynette. He grinned from ear to ear as he broke off from his group and stepped closer to Jeremiah and Lynette.“Who knew that a servant could look like you? Wow! I’m impressed,” Benson said as he slowly circled Lynette, his hand on his chin as he checked out the maid’s body with a lustful gaze.“What’s your name?” Benson asked Lynette from behind her.“Umm, Lynette. Lynette Ross,” Lynette answered hurriedly, looking and sounding uncomfortable at what Benson was doing.“Nice to meet you, Lynette. My name is Benson Cl

Who the hell was David?You know what? Jeremiah couldn't care less.“You’re free to do whatever you want,” Jeremiah said, then looked at Lynette, pushed Benson’s hand away again, and grabbed Lynette’s hand.“Let’s get out of here,” Jeremiah said, and Lynette nodded.Jeremiah started pulling the maid away, both of them going around Benson and heading for the door. “Excuse us,” Jeremiah said once he and Lynette got to Kristin, Brenda, and Desmond, who blocked their path and the two girls happily stepped to the side for them to go through, while Desmond, who wanted to impress Kristin, refused.“What does a servant like you think he’s doing acting all tough?! Benson wasn’t done talking and you just disrespected him like that. Do you think that the four of us are on the same level as a lowlife servant like you? Are you crazy?!” Desmond threatened.“Sure. Whatever.” Jeremiah rolled his eyes and then placed his hand on Desmond’s shoulder.“You can say whatever you like and call me whatever

“Jeremiah Garrick? Wait… Garrick? Isn’t that David’s and the king’s last name?” One of the guests behind David said, looking shocked.Everyone else thought about Jeremiah’s last name and had the same question in mind.“What’s going on here, David? Why does he bear the same name as you and the king? Are the two of you related or something?” Brenda asked.“Speaking of being related, I noticed that the two of them share some resemblance with one another, but is there more to it than both being good-looking? Are they actually related?” Kristin said.The others started murmuring, filling the corridor with confusion and questions. David frowned.“What nonsense are you lot talking about and why the hell are you all acting surprised and confused?! Do you think I would have talked the way I just did if this liar and I were actually related?! Are you guys daft or something?!” David asked, and his friends looked at each other guiltily.“David is right. We’ve been best friends for a long time no

“My name is Charles Ludwig and your time to pay for what you did to my father and younger brother has come” Charles threatened.Jeremiah was silent for a moment as he pondered his next words then he groaned when he got them. “So your father and brother told you what happened back in Crimson Fall. Did they also tell you just how dumb what you’re trying to do is? You do know who I am, right?” He asked.Charles chuckled cockily and then replied:“If you’re asking me if I know that you’re that man’s son then the answer is yes. I know exactly who you are and you can thank my father for that. My younger brother, Paul was just as shocked as I was when we both found out and he didn’t want to believe it at first but then he thought about it and realized how the pieces fit together”Jeremiah smirked when a thought came to his mind.“That guy, huh? Why don’t you just say the name—?” Jeremiah asked but then froze and widened his eyes as he looked at the goons around Charles “So that’s why. You d

“A trap,” Jeremiah said after observing the situation he was in.He shifted his gaze between everyone there and then he locked his eyes on Eric.“So this was your plan from the very beginning. Pretend to be an innocent kid who bumped into me and while I’m distracted trying to see if you’re okay, you steal my wallet from under my nose. After that, you create some distance between each other and wait long enough until I notice what you did, knowing that I would chase after you to get the wallet back. Looking back at it now, I thought it made no sense why you didn’t disappear after stealing the wallet— like all other pocket pickers do so that they don’t risk getting caught when the victim finally realized what had happened. But not you. You wanted to get caught because your actual goal was to lure me here to whatever this is” Jeremiah said.Eric smirked.“Wow, you sure do talk a lot. Everything could have happened a lot quicker but you had to talk and talk and talk, trying to help me lik
CHAPTER 260
Jeremiah drove all the way to a little fast food joint not so far from the High Fashion Emporium. It was a place he had heard about when it was first opened but hadn’t really gone to because it was in the expensive part of town.Now that he was there and could afford to eat what he wanted, he used the opportunity to quench his cravings.Jeremiah parked in front of the restaurant and went in.He had seen videos and pictures online of the restaurant from food review content creators, so he was quite familiar with the look of the place even though he had never been there before until that moment.Jeremiah walked to the counter and ordered what he wanted to eat. The lady there was very nice and welcoming, just like the review said, then he waited a few and was given what he ordered.The look was amazing but the smell was something else, especially with his heightened sense of smell. Jeremiah hadn’t even eaten yet and he was already salivating.“Please enjoy,” the lady at the counter said.

[“You better go on your knees and start begging for forgiveness if you know what’s good for you. That guy is someone you wouldn’t want to mess with on a good day, let alone a bad one and I’m not going to stick my neck out for you and beg him to show mercy because the last time I did that for that idiot Bruce who disrespected him almost as badly as you did, I almost got my fingers broken”]Scared after what he had just heard, Lucy’s legs started to tremble more violently and almost gave out. She couldn’t believe the mess she had just put herself in. If only she had believed Jeremiah when he told her he was an Ultra VIP member of the store, she would have been able to go her own way, safe from any punishment, especially one as terrible as broken fingers. What can she do now? Beg? Would that even work?Every worker in the store, who knew what happened a couple of weeks ago, still thought Jeremiah was some kind of underground crime lord and everything the manager told her over the phon
CHAPTER 258
“Good morning, Kingston. I’m at the High Fashion Emporium, the clothing store we went to the day we traveled home to meet my father” Jeremiah said.[“Oh! Page had told me not long ago that you just moved into the Grand Blue estate, so I guess you’re already preparing to fill your closet”] Kingston had told Jeremiah to take the clothes he was given in the castle back to Bakers View so he wouldn’t have to waste time doing a shopping run. However, Jeremiah refused to do so because he didn’t want anything that would remind him of who he was. After all, he was trying his best to distance himself from his past as Lord Crimson—until his memories of the past finally returned.“That’s right,” Jeremiah replied. Kingston took a deep breath and sighed. [“So what can I help you with, young master?”] said Kingston, who knew that Jeremiah was only calling to ask for assistance, which he had no problem with as he was always ready and happy to serve. “Do you remember that I was given a special acc
CHAPTER 257
Jeremiah went straight for his bedroom where he collected his thoughts, coming up with things he needed now that he had returned to Bakers View. Then, after making a mental list of everything, he left the house, went outside the fence where his motorcycle was still parked, got on it, and drove into town. His first stop for the day was getting clothes for his massive closet, so he drove all the way to the one clothing store he both had experience with and liked how their clothes were. He went to The High Fashion Emporium. He parked in front of the store, got off the motorcycle, and walked towards the entrance. The last time he was there, the convoy of luxurious cars he arrived in drew a lot of unwanted attention from bystanders, and the entourage of security guards that surrounded him and Kingston as they exited the cars didn’t help. Now, with just him and his motorcycle arriving at the store and walking through the entrance, nobody paid him any attention. He was basically inv
CHAPTER 256
As Jeremiah and Page drove through the estate, Jeremiah got the opportunity to have a good look at the houses and it would have been an understatement to say that he was impressed by what he saw. He expected nothing less from an estate owned by his family. Very soon, he saw Page’s jeep’s taillight indicating that she was about to go left. Seeing as how there was no junction or intersection in sight, Jeremiah realized that she was about to park.Jeremiah did the same. He turned on his motorcycle’s left blinker and followed Page to park in front of a massive house that was surrounded by a fence— just like all the other houses in the estate.Security was a pivotal part of the estate’s appeal, so every house in it had a gated fence that acted as a second layer of security in case someone managed to go through Desmond and his partner at the entrance gate.That, however, had never happened since the creation of the estate, but it didn’t hurt to be cautious.Page turned off her car’s engin
CHAPTER 255
The sound of a loud horn blared, drawing Jeremiah and the older security officer’s attention to the car that made it and they saw a black BMW Jeep. “She’s here,” the older security officer said, a look of surprise on his face.Jeremiah, who just realized that the driver of the black BMW Jeep was the housing agent he had called— thanks to what he heard the older security officer say—groaned. He got a good look at the woman and thought that she was nice-looking and on the older side, which wasn’t what he expected because she had a youthful voice over the phone.“I guess you were telling the truth,” the older security officer said. Jeremiah looked at the man in uniform and with a cocky smile replied “What? You thought I was lying to you earlier?”“My apologies. I was only doing my job. You can never be too careful about these things” The older security officer lowered his head slightly as he apologized. “It’s fine. I too would have done the same. Anyway…” Jeremiah looked at the Jeep
CHAPTER 254
Both of them entered the office and did all the paperwork to turn Jeremiah into the owner of a new motorcycle and after a couple of minutes, they were done.“It was nice doing business with you, sir” the sales rep shook Jeremiah’s hand over the desk. “Thank you” Jeremiah smirked. “Shall we go get your motorcycle?” The sales rep asked and Jeremiah nodded.Both of them stood up, left the office, and went to where the motorcycle was.Jeremiah got on it, wore the helmet, and drove out of the shop. For safety reasons, the motorcycle only had a small amount of fuel in the tank so Jeremiah had to make a stop at the gas station before continuing his tasks for the day. He filled the tank to the max and then went to his next destination which was looking for a house like he promised Mary he would a couple of weeks ago. After telling his father a couple of weeks ago that he would be returning to Bakers View, Jeremiah was informed that their family owned an estate in the city with many beaut
