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,

Walking down the corridor of one of the floors were nine maids who were busy conversing about the welcome ceremony.“I really wish I was one of the maids assigned to work at the ceremony. That way I would have gotten to see what the young master looked like as he's being celebrated,” one of the maids said. “I’m sure you know that you would have to work hard if you were one of the assigned maids. You wouldn’t even have the time to stare at him for long, so what’s the point?” Another maid said. “Sorry, but I prefer to rest at night.” A third maid added.“Don’t you girls want to see the him? If I remember correctly, weren’t we all just speculating whether he was more attractive than the king or just as good-looking or worst case scenario, he’s completely average?” said the first maid.“Sure, I want to see the young master in all his handsome glory, but not as much as I want to rest. I’ve been working like a dog all day and all I want now is to climb my bed and take a looooong nap,” ano

Paul looked at Jeremiah from head to toe and groaned in confusion.Was this the same Jeremiah whose wife he had stolen and had an affair with the previous night?It couldn’t be, because if he was the same Jeremiah, who he sent his security guards to throw out of his resort the night before, then why did he look so different and better now?It was a shock and confusing to wrap his head around. If it wasn’t for Jeremiah’s voice and Jeremiah calling his name to show that he too knew him, Paul would have thought that he was mistaking Jeremiah for someone else, but that wasn’t the case. He was right and that was indeed Jeremiah. “I guess today is my lucky day because I’ve been looking for a bastard like you and, by fate or pure coincidence, I finally found you,” Paul grinned from ear to ear.He thought about all the things he was going to do to Jeremiah as payback for what happened in Polaris Bank. If it wasn’t for Jeremiah calling the manager and the manager calling the security guards

Lynette’s eyes fidgeted as she saw Jeremiah suspend a brute like Paul in the air with a single hand.How was it possible for someone his size to be that strong? She also noticed that it didn’t seem like Jeremiah was exerting himself and was actually way stronger than what he was showcasing now.How was that even possible?“Are you okay?” Jeremiah looked at Lynette and asked her.“Huh?” Lynette said after snapping out of her daze.“I said, are you okay? He didn’t hurt you too much, did he?” Jeremiah asked.Lynette checked her arm, which was red from how hard Paul had grabbed her, then she looked at Jeremiah and shook her head.“I’m fine, young master,” she said.Jeremiah, whose senses were heightened and was a very intuitive person, knew that she was lying as her expression was a dead giveaway. There was no way someone as big as Paul didn’t hurt her the way he grabbed her arm and Jeremiah became even more infuriated.He faced Paul and yelled, “How dare you lay your fingers on her, yo

Inside the welcome ceremony.The servers had started serving gourmet dishes to the guests and Brenda’s stomach had started grumbling from a strong hunger.She wasn’t that hungry until she smelled the delicious aroma of the dishes, but now that she had, she wanted to gulp them down.“I really want to eat something,” Brenda said to Kristin, her hand on her stomach. “Yeah, me too. Let’s call one of the servers to bring us something” Kristin said, then she looked for one of the servers whose back was turned to them as he served another guest, and she called out to him.The server turned around and to her surprise it was Desmond. Immediately, her expression dulled as she lost her appetite and didn’t want him to come near them.Unfortunately, Brenda didn’t pick up on that and called him over anyway. “What do you think you’re doing?” Kristin asked her hungry best friend.“What? I thought you wanted to eat just as much as I do” Brenda replied, a confused grimace on her face.“Yes, but not

Just like with Daniel back at the house a couple of days ago, Jeremiah told Victoria all about his family and she got increasingly shocked the more information he conveyed. And just like with Daniel, he omitted anything that had to do with the fact that he was not from this world but a Dragon that reincarnated.With her eyes widened, Victoria just sat there, having no idea she had been quiet for a full thirty seconds since Jeremiah stopped talking. “Aren’t you going to say anything?” He asked, snapping Victoria back to her senses.“I’m sorry, I was just taken aback for a moment but I’m fine now. I can’t believe I’m sitting at the same table and having a date with the future king of Crimson Fall. This is insane” she said, unsure whether she should smile or be nervous, but leaning towards nervousness. Jeremiah chuckled.“You don’t have to be nervous around me, you know that right? It’s not like I changed into an all-new person. I’m still the same Jeremiah who you used to get coffee fr
CHAPTER 320
The dining hall was themed like the ocean and with the blue ambiance of the entire room, Victoria’s red dress popped and became the center of attention.All four walls of the dining hall had transformed into a display of the deep blue sea, showcasing different fish life like a big aquarium. Just like the cold they had felt when the elevator changed into a space-themed interior, the dining hall had a salty and fresh smell to it that made the whole thing more believable.Like that wasn’t crazy enough, swimming through the open space of the dining hall were holographic fishes and the beautiful in design perfect in scale. "Jeremiah, look at that!" Victoria said as she pointed at one of the holographic fishes that was her favorite aquatic life.Jeremiah grimaced, looking impressed by the fish which was one he had never seen before."Wow, this is amazing!" Victoria smiled, completely mesmerized by the showcase and before she could feed her eyes to her heart's content, Presley spoke out."Y

“It hasn’t been designed yet? Y’all made it seem like something so grand when it hasn’t been designed yet? Is this some kind of sick joke or something?” Presley looked at him with surprise.“Oh, Mister Wellings didn’t tell you about this? I’m terribly sorry, sir. Since you took his place to be here, I thought you would have been informed about the workings of the dining hall but you weren’t. It’s my fault for not being proactive enough and asking what you knew before taking you here because it looks like we’re up to no good” Presley said. “The workings of the dining hall? What does that mean?” Jeremiah asked, managing his annoyance.“Well, Chandler over there is an architect as you heard me say before and the walls of this room, just like the elevator and the passage we just walked through are lined with resonance crystals, although these ones are stronger”Jeremiah grimaced. “Resonance crystals? What are you talking about?” Victoria asked. “Well, madam, resonance Crystals are a s
CHAPTER 318
Jeremiah and Victoria looked all around the place and just like the elevator, the Emperor floor was also themed like the solar system but because of the size, it felt like they were in the vastness of space.Again, Jeremiah found it intriguing that he was just thinking about his father’s planetarium and space then all of a sudden everything changed to match that like it was some kind of magic. "Thank you," Jeremiah said then looked at the two hosts individually and asked, "So which one of you should I address from now on, or is it going to be both of you?""That would be me, sir. My name is Presley Montgomery and I'll be your host for the evening" the male host said with a hand on his chest as he bowed in respect.“The Emperor floor offers two hosts and leaves it to the guests to choose who they want to be catered by. Typically a man goes with a man and a woman goes with a woman but the option to pick it’s still there, so if you want to pick my colleague, Annabelle Grimes, then that
CHAPTER 317
“Are you ready to go up?” Jeremiah asked Victoria. Feeling a bit nervous because she wasn’t sure of what was going to happen next, she moved in closer to Jeremiah and nodded.“Yes, I’m ready” she replied.“Alright,” Jeremiah said then focused on the buttons there.To indicate how increasingly luxurious the floors became the higher up you go, the elevator buttons were used to showcase that. Each floor had unique and beautiful buttons assigned to it in the already alluring and stylized gold-plated panel.There was one specific button out of all the rest that looked like it was the most important button. As such, that button was the highest one in the lineup with a notable gap between it and the ones directly underneath.That meant that the level of luxury afforded between the room that that button led to and the one under it were day and night apart which could only mean one thing.“The Emperor floor,” Jeremiah said the moment he identified the button and wasted no time pressing it.Th

“No, Master Jeremiah didn’t lose to me” Wellings replied and Victoria grimaced in surprise.“Wait, then does that mean you lost against him?” She said, shocked.She couldn’t fathom how someone like Wellings could lose to Jeremiah in an auction when auctions are won based on money.Was Welling’s saying that Jeremiah was richer than him? But that’s not possible, right?Wellings chuckled.“Not at all” he replied and that didn’t help to clear Victoria on what had happened.“So was it someone else? Did you two lose to another bidder?” She asked, trying her best to understand.“I did, but not Master Jeremiah” Wellings answered.Victoria tilted her head as she asked “What does that mean?”“Let me put it like this. I won something and lost some in that auction, but Master Jeremiah on the other hand only bided for one item which he won”Victoria furrowed her eyebrows.“Jeremiah beat the other bidders for the item? Is that what you’re trying to say”She wasn’t trying to belittle Jeremiah with h
CHAPTER 315
“I suppose you’ve noticed that this building isn’t what it used to be a year ago,” Wellings said and Jeremiah grimaced.Since Jeremiah had been poor for most of his life which only changed less than a month ago, he didn’t know that much about high-end restaurants like The Royal Darling Gourmet Restaurant or any other one out there.The only reason he did was that Mary used to nag him about going to one every anniversary they had since they started dating, each time growing increasingly frustrated when he said he couldn’t take her because of his mother’s health issues and other responsibilities that needed the money.Her nagging only stopped after they got married and Jeremiah noticed that she hadn’t said anything about spending their anniversary as a dinner date in The Royal Darling Gourmet Restaurant.Jeremiah had just thought that she had finally understood his financial challenges and had decided to not bother him about something he couldn’t afford. Little did he know that she was
CHAPTER 314
At the moment, Jeremiah was very suspicious of Wellings because of Grey, who had also known his identity even though he hadn’t been the one who told either of them. Now, the question was whether Wellings was another member of Dark Emblem, because if he was then things wouldn’t go well for him. After how angry Grey had made Jeremiah during their last encounter, any member of Dark Emblem who Jeremiah came across would pay the price for the things that happened. Still, Jeremiah gave Wellings the benefit of the doubt, having a feeling that he wasn’t a member of Dark Emblem because of one complex reason; the fact that Wellings was tricked by Grey’s illusion spell and had communicated with Martha in the auction house. Now, Wellings could have been pretending that she was real, just like Grey was. But, the way their interaction was very hostile proved that he wasn’t playing any tricks. Why argue with someone he knew was an illusion and risk escalating the situation to a point that might
CHAPTER 313
Jeremiah and Victoria walked into the Reyal Darling Gourmet Restaurant and were immediately greeted by the spectacular ambiance and marvelous interior designs. The air smelled and tasted like something from the past, having a welcoming feeling about it that dropped the guard of each individual person who was enveloped by it.It was like walking into a different realm that prided itself in providing the best luxury and comfort possible and this was just the entrance. How heightened would those feelings be in the main dining?The small number of staff members Jeremiah and Victoria had seen all seemed professional in their respective roles and everything came together like a well-oiled machine. “Welcome, sir. Please enjoy your time at The Royal Darling Gourmet Restaurant” greeted the staff who was on Jeremiah’s side of the entrance while the staff by Victoria’s side greeted her too.The beautiful nurse couldn’t help but smile as she had never experienced such excitement before. She cou
