The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 65
“Are you asking me, young master?” She asked, pointing at her chest. “Yes. I mean, who else would be I talking to? It’s just you and I in this room” Jeremiah replied. The maid chuckled bashfully. “Sorry about that, young master. I was just surprised is all” Without meaning to, she started thinking about what Jeremiah’s life must have been like that at twenty-five years old he didn’t know what to expect from a ceremony like the one happening currently when he was a prince. Shouting he have a lot of experience? She thought.“No problem. Anyway, do you have the tips or what?” Jeremiah asked and Lynette nodded.She gave him all the tips she could think of on how to behave and what to expect during the welcome ceremony and Jeremiah thanked her.After that, Jeremiah looked at Lynette from head to toe and the maid became nervous.“Young master?” She asked, wondering why he was checking her out like that.“Is this what you’re going to wear to the welcome ceremony?” He asked and the maid

“You’ll be attending the welcome ceremony with me,” Jeremiah said boldly, and Lynette’s eyes widened. “Y-you w-want me to what?” Lynette stuttered, her face adorned with disbelief. “I said you’ll be attending the welcome ceremony with me.” Jeremiah said, and then noticed her strange reaction. “What? Is there anything wrong with what I said?”Lynette shook her head vigorously.“No, there isn’t anything wrong, Young Master. It’s just that…” She said, then paused when she saw the look Jeremiah was giving her.It was one of confusion, and, most importantly, concern.She instantly became bashful and blushed.“It’s just what? Don’t be shy, tell me” said Jeremiah in a soft tone as he stepped closer, his demeanor reassuring her that he wouldn’t be offended if she wanted to refuse his offer.“It’s just that I’m a maid and you’re… well, you”“Okay? And?” He asked, still not understanding her problem with what he said.“And you want me to be your plus one at an important event where the king a

“Please don’t be offended, young master, but I think you should—“ Lynette said with her head down, as she couldn’t look him in the eyes, but Jeremiah placed his hand on her shoulder.Lynette jolted and then raised her head to look at Jeremiah, only to see his warm smile.“Whether you’re a maid, and I’m a royal, none of that matters to me,” Jeremiah said, and the maid’s eyes widened.“It doesn’t?” She asked.“That’s right. Status, class, and money aren’t things I look at when associating with people, as I’ve seen rich and affluent people who are terrible and low-class people who are the best in the world. At the end of the day, it’s who you are deep down that matters” Jeremiah said.He was speaking from experience as growing up the way he did made him appreciate other things more.To him, it didn’t matter that Lynette was a maid because she was a beautiful person both outside and inside, so he would happily go to the welcome ceremony with her.If his father didn’t have a problem marryi

Jeremiah and Lynette went to the maid’s quarters which was a section of the castle that the maids stay in.“This is my room, young master,” Lynette said as they stood in front of her room door.“Okay,” Jeremiah replied then Lynette turned to the door and knocked, making Jeremiah groan in confusion.He wondered why she didn’t just open the door since she said that it was her room. Why did she knock?Well, he found out why soon enough. “I’m coming!” Said someone inside the room and while Lynette recognized who had spoken by their voice, Jeremiah had one thought in mind.‘So she has a roommate’ he thought.For some reason, he had thought that the room was hers alone, but after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that of course, she had a roommate.Why would a maid stay by herself when there were so many maids in the estate? There wouldn’t be enough rooms for all of them if that was the case.A second later, the door was opened and both of them saw who opened it. It was Joyce.“
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 69
Curious to know more, they all rushed to Lynette and gathered around her again.“Am I dreaming or something? A maid is actually going to be the Young Master’s plus one? Somebody punch me 'cause this can’t be real” one of the maids, who climbed Lynette’s bed, said.They all started asking Lynette a bunch of questions like what led to Jeremiah asking her to be his plus one at the welcome ceremony. How did he ask her to be his plus one and how did she feel when he asked her?A lot of questions flew from the other maids’ mouths except Joyce's, who quietly watched Lynette check if the gown she had brought out of her wardrobe was good enough to wear to the welcome ceremony as Jeremiah’s plus one. The questions and noise became too much and Joyce smacked her tongue.“Everyone keep quiet!” Joyce yelled and all the maids froze.They all looked at her, wondering why she just yelled. Joyce looked at the dress Lynette was holding.“Give me that!” She said sternly as she grabbed the gown and pul

“To Lynette, from Young Master Jeremiah,” Lynette read, and her eyes widened.She quickly turned her face to the door and asked “When did the young master do this?”She returned her gaze to the beautiful black dress and emerald jewelry in the box and said “Was this why he wanted to follow me to my quarters? To see my reaction to his gift?”The confused maid had so many questions that needed answers, and because she couldn’t go outside and ask Jeremiah for them, she faced the only other person who could provide them for her. The same person who had shown her the wonderful present to begin with.She faced Joyce.“What’s going on here? When did the young master do this?” Lynette asked Joyce while the five other maids surrounded them and checked out what was in the box. They were amazed by how beautiful the dress and jewelry were while also waiting to hear Joyce’s answer to Lynette’s question. “A couple of hours ago, Mister Kingston called me and told me to get you something nice as a r

The dress hugged her figure perfectly.Her stomach was flat, her waist thin, her hips wide and her breasts plump with a youthful allure. To be honest, the not-so-fitting maid's uniform had done her a great disservice by hiding all her wonderful features. The color of the dress matched her fair and clear skin and the emerald jewelry around her neck and ears made her eyes pop. The red lipstick drew the attention of everyone who had eyes to her full lips, and it made her white teeth stand out even more.It wouldn’t be an exaggeration for Jeremiah to say that he hadn’t seen any woman in his entire life that looked half as good as Lynette looked at that moment and if the scale was from one to ten, then she very well broke it.Joyce, who saw the mesmerized look on Jeremiah’s face, smirked.“Didn't I tell you that you wouldn’t be disappointed, young master?” Joyce said proudly, and Jeremiah snapped out of his daze.“Yes you did,” he said to Joyce, and the maid grinned.“Young master,” Lyne

“What’s going on here?” David asked as he stared at the bar captain and his best friend, wondering why they were like that. “Who are you?” The bar captain asked David. “I’m the Umm..” David said, but stopped himself. He looked over his shoulder and stared at the guy wearing a black suit in the distance behind him. That was the person Kingston had ordered to be around him at all times and make sure he didn’t cheat his punishment. As long as that person was there, David was going to be accountable and not have access to everything that came with his birth. “I’m the Umm… I’m his best friend, but that doesn’t matter right now. What matters is what’s going on here. Why are the two of you like this?” David said. The bar Captain glared at Benson and said “This punk is being a hothead, instead of listening to instructions, and he’s making a mess of my workspace.” David, whose plan of becoming the future king depended on his friends’ actions and behavior during the welcome ceremony,

CHAPTER 178
Just two days ago, the phrase “I live to serve you, My Lord” was something Jeremiah never imagined he would hear directed at him. However, hearing it from Reginald had transformed it into the most enticing sentence anyone had ever spoken to him.This just goes to show how quickly things can change in a matter of hours. From being a nobody orphan whose wife cheated on him and asked for a divorce, to becoming the heir of the most powerful family in the world who also had a very beautiful woman/mythical being waiting for him to remember their past together so they could get married.His life truly was a dream come true and if he was told two days ago that this was what his near future would be, he never would have believed it.“Thank you” Jeremiah replied and Reginald, whose head was bowed, smirked. Seeing Reginald, their king and the highest authority they’ve known for many years, bow to Jeremiah felt strange to the maids but it was also nice to watch because it meant that everything w
CHAPTER 177
With each passing second, the turmoil and fear in the hearts of all the maids standing there increased to new heights. Jeremiah, having never been in this type of situation before, was clueless about what to do.As someone who had spent his entire teenage and adult years being looked down upon by all the people around him, Jeremiah had gotten used to not being and also not being seen as a threat or an object of fear and intimidation to others.Things changing to what it was now felt jarring and Jeremiah was left not knowing what to do to quell the situation. “Umm…” Jeremiah said but stopped when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked to the side and saw that it was Reginald holding him. “Dad?” Jeremiah mouthed.“Don’t worry, My Lord. You’re still new to this and until your past memories come back, you’ll have some challenges ruling over people. Fortunately, you have me to help” Reginald smirked. Jeremiah looked at the crowd of maids then he looked at Reginald and calmed down.
CHAPTER 176
Seeing Jeremiah transform before their eyes was like watching a scene from a movie, but with the most spectacular special effects imaginable.The color and texture of his arms changed, becoming scaly in appearance and possessing a toughness almost equal to steel. They also grew longer, with the muscle fibers becoming more prominent, while the fingernails lengthened and turned completely black.Speaking of his fingernails— which could be called claws at that point— they looked sharp and hard enough to effortlessly slice through flesh and even cut through bone like marshmallows.Jeremiah's facial structure also went through some changes, becoming less human-like— sharper and wider to be exact. His teeth grew longer and sharper, his ears elongated like elves’, and his eyes…His eyes completely changed in color and shape, taking on the appearance of a reptile’s, with a dangerous black-and-gold tint that sent chills down the spines of everyone who met his gaze.If this were a video game, b
CHAPTER 175
The maids all looked in the direction Reginald was gesturing at, their eyes as sharp as eagles as they tried to see who Lord Crimson was. They had never been more interested in anything than they had been in this particular topic since it was brought to them. After all, who wouldn’t be interested in finding out the validity of something that had been a major part of their life growing up? After looking for a moment, all the maids could see were Jeremiah and Kingston—no one else. Confused, they glanced away from the two, wondering if Reginald had gestured in the wrong direction.There was clearly nothing in the opposition direction too so they didn’t even bother looking there. Instead, they looked among themselves and pondered if Lord Crimson hadn’t come to the room yet. Still, that didn’t make sense because the look on Reginald’s face was that of someone who was certain that Lord Crimson was where he was pointing. However, their eyes told them otherwise—so what on earth was going o
CHAPTER 174
The maids glanced at the guards, who, as they realized while panicking about their throbbing tongues, had remained straight-faced throughout the entire ordeal. They then groaned, grateful for the clarification Reginald had just provided.“Only a select few didn’t experience what you all did but do not be offended by that,” Reginald said, drawing the maids’s attention back to himself.The few who didn’t feel the discomfort on their tongues because the secret spell wasn’t cast on them were Bruce, David, Kingston, Reginald, Obadiah who casted the spell, and of course Jeremiah. The maids could figure out the identity of the people Reginald was talking about and weren’t offended by it. Rather, it made them more curious about what Reginald was going to tell them that was going to shake their worldview.“The sensation you all felt was the result of a spell called The Secrecy Spell. Its purpose is to make sure that none of you can relay what you’re about to find out in this gathering to some
CHAPTER 173
All the maids started reacting to the sensation they were having on their tongues, wondering what was going on.Was it in all their heads or was something actually physically happening to them? Some reacted calmly and level-headedly to the strange sensations their tongues were experiencing, while others panicked. However, they were all concerned and worried about their tongues suddenly acting up.“My tongue. What’s happening to my tongue?!” Said one of the maid who moved her tongue around her mouth, trying to understand the strange sensation she couldn’t explain.It was like the tongue was throbbing, getting hot, itchy and numb, all at the same time, which didn’t make sense and was something that had never happened before. “You’re feeling that too? I thought I was the only one. What’s going on?” Said another who brought out her tongue and touched it, not feeling the throbbing or hot sensation on her finger which made her think that she was imagining it but that didn’t make sense be
CHAPTER 172
Jeremiah used to think that the platinum debit card he got from Anthony, the manager of Polaris Bank, was the highest form of debit card anyone could get and use for his/her transactions. However, here he was finding out there was an even greater level than that. The Black Debit card.This was a card that only one bank in the entire world provided its customers. In fact, the bank only provided the Black Debit card to its customers and only on the condition that they meet certain financial criteria that 99.999% of the world’s population would never reach.A customer has to have at least ten billion dollars in cash before they can open an account with them and once opened, the Black Debit card is provided.The name of the bank was Sentry Bank, and there were fewer than seventy people in the entire world who had an account with them—Jeremiah being one of them.“I had always planned to have you abandon your current bank account and opt for the new one Kingston was going to create for you
CHAPTER 171
After watching Lynette and Elizabeth leave the throne room and the door get closed, the four men who were once having a meeting before being interrupted, returned to that. “I never would have guessed that what just happened would happen when we started this meeting a couple of minutes ago, but I’m extremely happy that it did” Reginald said and Jeremiah groaned.“His Majesty is right, My Lord," Obadiah said, making Jeremiah look at him. "With Miss Lynette's knowledge of the past and her claim of having taught you not just a simple magic spell but the most complex and powerful one in the world, she will be of greater help to your growth in magic than I ever could."Jeremiah thought about what the shaman said and grimaced.“You’s right, she might— no, she will be of greater help to my magic training than you can.” Jeremiah said, making Obadiah to smile prematurely. “But, she also said that it will take a while for her powers to come back after she’d resurrected for the first time in a l
CHAPTER 170
Hearing what Lynette had just said, Reginald, Kingston, and Obadiah—who remained silent—were all relieved yet shocked that their hypothesis was correct. Granted, Jeremiah had been the one to come up with the hypothesis, but they had all believed in it.Now, this revelation brought about even more questions they struggled to articulate, especially since Lynette was no longer the maid they once held authority over.As a being very similar to what Jeremiah was, Lynette—who had existed for centuries—didn’t have to answer to anyone if she chose not to, and her behavior so far, speaking to the king and Kingston like regular people, made that abundantly clear.“Even I was confused when she woke from her rest and claimed she used to be close friends with Lord Crimson before his reincarnation. At first, I wondered how that could be possible, given that Lord Crimson’s reincarnation took place centuries ago. But the honesty and conviction in her words made me curious to know if she was telling t
