The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 94
A couple of minutes earlier, after Jeremiah had followed Lynette’s scent to the window of his father’s bedroom, then started smelling David’s scent as well, he heard a knock on the door.“Young Master, it’s Elizabeth…” Elizabeth said, drawing his attention from looking out the window and facing the door. He remembered Reginald saying that he would send her to come keep him company, so he was about to go open the door for her when Lynette’s and David’s scents he had been smelling in the air suddenly started to go down.“Huh?” Jeremiah mumbled, then sniffed the air and realized that their scents were really decreasing.He realized that the longer time went on, the less he’d be able to follow the scents and find where Lynette and David were. Meaning that he didn’t have the time to waste on anything else and if he was going to find Lynette and David, he had to do it now.He couldn’t go tell Reginald about his discovery and wait for the king to form a party of guards that'd join him and f
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 95
Desmond panicked, realizing that he had been caught.“I assure you that this isn’t what it looks—“ Desmond said, but was cut off when Jeremiah grabbed his face and lifted him off Kristin. “You bastard! I made a serious mistake not dealing with you earlier because I thought you had learned your lesson, but it looks like I was wrong. I won’t make the same mistake again and this time, I’ll make sure you get the punishment you deserve!!” Jeremiah said and Desmond started sweating bullets.“J-Jeremiah— I mean, young master. Please forgive meeee—“ Desmond said, but wasn’t able to finish when Jeremiah spun and threw him at the giant space telescope a few feet away.Desmond flew like an arrow, crashed into the telescope, which didn’t budge, and he dropped lifelessly on the floor.“Uhhh” Desmond moaned in pain, lying on the floor with multiple broken bones and a concussion. “Who gave you the permission to think you can rest, huh? Did I tell you that I was done with you yet?!” Jeremiah asked

Jeremiah listened outside again and heard Brenda and the guard yelling Kristin’s name, but from the sound of it, they were getting farther away from the planetarium. Thinking fast, Jeremiah looked around the place, and he saw the cloth used to cover the telescope on the floor and he groaned.“Give me a minute” Jeremiah said, and then stood up.“Where are you going?!” Kristin asked, thinking that he was abandoning her and started to feel terrible.“Just give me a minute” Jeremiah said, then headed to the cloth on the ground while Kristin watched him. Once there, he ripped a piece of cloth that would be big enough to cover the girl’s entire body, then he walked back to where she was. “I’m going to cover you with this. Is that okay with you?” Jeremiah asked.Kristin looked at the cloth, and it was a bit unclean, but still she nodded, and said “Okay.”Jeremiah was about to cover her with the cloth but looked to the side and saw her torn underwear.He walked over to it and was about to

“Don’t you think you’re going a little too fast?” Asked the petite brunette whose arms were wrapped around the rider of the motorcycle as she sat on the passenger seat. “Fast?! You think this is fast? Oh, baby, I can go even faster!” The confident rider said, then twisted the throttle and increased speed. “Baby!!” The girl exclaimed, her heart racing just as fast as the motorcycle. The rider chuckled “I thought you loved it when I go fast. If you didn’t, then why did you agree to get on the motorcycle in the first place?” “Yes, I did, but not this fast!” She replied, worried about her safety. “Not this fast? What’s the point of having a motorcycle this badass if I’m not gonna ride the heck out of it and take the speed to the limit?!” the rider replied cockily as he continued to up the speed. Just then, feeling considerate of his girlfriend’s presence and not wanting her to be scared that he was going too fast, the rider decided to listen to her and cut back on the speed a

“I should give you my what— wait a minute, did you just say your last name was…” The rider said but was interrupted by his girlfriend who finished his sentence for him by saying “Garrick?” The rider quickly faced his girlfriend and saw the bewildered look on her face. “Garrick? But isn’t that the same last name as the King’s? It is so why on earth do you have the same—“ the girlfriend said confusedly but then her eyes widened. She quickly turned to the right, which was the direction of the king’s estate, and stared into the distance. “And we are also very close to the king’s estate from here so does that mean—?” She asked but the rider quickly cut her off. “What nonsense are you trying to say, babe?!” The rider exclaimed, snapping her out of her daze. It was like bringing back to reality someone who had just seen a celebrity even though there was no confirmation that Jeremiah was who she thought he was. “Huh?” She said once snapped back to her senses. “There’s no way,
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 99
“What?!” The rider quickly looked at his girlfriend beside him “You want me to what?!” The girlfriend glanced at Jeremiah through the corner of her eyes and saw that what she did had made him calm down, basically saving her boyfriend’s life and she sighed in relief, discretely. Still unaware of what his girlfriend just did for him, the annoyed rider asked again “Why would you ask me to listen to that asshole and agree to sell my motorcycle?!” Immediately, the girlfriend became annoyed with the rider’s stupidity in asking her the question he just did. Who in their right mind would insult Jeremiah seconds after he was just about to beat him(the rider) to a pulp but had stopped himself? The rider must really be brain-dead, the girlfriend thought, but since he wasn’t going to be smart and save himself, she felt like she had to help him. “I mean, clearly he needs it for something important so why don’t you consider,” the girlfriend said, using her eyes to tell the rider to use his sen

“What’s wrong with me?! How do you expect him to send us the money if I don’t give him my phone to do it?!” The girlfriend asked, annoyed. “And what if he takes your phone and runs away with it the moment you give it to him? What would you do then, huh?! I can’t believe you seriously trust him enough to do something so careless,” the rider complained. The girlfriend, on the other hand, frowned. “Do I look like I haven’t thought about that already?! What the hell do you take me for?!” She looked at the rider with disgust for belittling her. “I know there’s a possibility that he’ll run away with my phone once I hand it over to him—“ the girlfriend said, and the rider, who didn’t care to listen to what she was saying, quickly cut her off like he’s known to do. “Then why do it in the first place?!” He asked, also angry that she wasn’t listening to him. “Half a freaking million dollars, that’s why! We stand to gain five hundred fucking thousand dollars if he keeps to his end of the d

“Cool” Jeremiah smirked.“I’ll just give you my phone to make the transfer and the motorcycle will be all yours,” Britney said and was about to take her first step to Jeremiah when Kris interrupted her.Feeling hurt and betrayed, he said “If you give him that phone, then just know that our relationship is over!” “What?” Britney looked at Kris like he was being outlandish with his statement.“You heard me. Give him that phone against my will and kiss our relationship goodbye ‘cause I can’t be with someone who would take a stranger’s side over mine”“Are you being serious right now?” Britney asked, surprised by the ultimatum just given.“Yes, I am, so what’s it gonna be?” Kris said, feeling confident that Britney would do anything to keep their relationship going.The girl pondered for a moment, thinking about what she should do.She weighed the benefits of the share of the money she would get from selling the motorcycle to what she had and would gain from continuing to date Kris and o

Reginald had to admit that Jeremiah made a lot of sense with what he had said. Things were very dangerous with Dark Emblem knowing Jeremiah’s whereabouts and were going to attack him at any moment. Reginald was already someone they wanted dead— although he wasn’t a priority like Jeremiah and Obadiah were— so it would basically be the same as putting him on a silver platter if he was anywhere near Jeremiah whenever Dark Emblem decided to attack. They would definitely kill him first if the opportunity presented itself. Or worst-case scenario, they would try to use him as a hostage and make Jeremiah unable to attack as strongly as he would have. Granted, the likelihood Dark Emblem does that is very low because they didn’t have a good impression of Lord Crimson and thought he didn’t care about any human being enough for them to work as a hostage against him. However, the fact that Jeremiah risked his life to save everyone at the welcome ceremony, made things different and that narrat
CHAPTER 303
Jeremiah went ahead to tell Reginald, Kingston, and Lynette what happened— the same as he did with Obadiah, shocking them with each detail he gave, and when he was done, they went silent for an extended period before regaining their composure.[“I didn’t think you would be discovered this quickly after moving back to Bakers View, son”] Reginald said and then groaned—pondering what to say next. [“However, now that the cat is out of the bag and they are coming for you, we have no choice but to look for a way forward. With that said, what’s your plan?”] “My plan, huh? Well, it’s very simple. To fight!” Jeremiah said, resolve echoing from his eyes. Reginald chuckled lightly.[“I wouldn’t have expected anything different. In that case, you will be needing help if you hope to survive this. I’m assuming you’ve decided to have Bakers View as the battleground”]“Yes, I do. This is my hometown, where those Dark Emblem assholes caused my mother to get into an accident that put her in a coma w
CHAPTER 302
Jeremiah returned the relic to where he got it from and without wasting any second, he took out his phone from his pocket and called Kingston. After a few seconds, the call was answered. [“Young Master, Jeremiah”] Kingston greeted. “Good afternoon, Kingston,” Jeremiah replied.[“Good afternoon young master. How is your—?”] Kingston said but Jeremiah cut him off.“Before you ask any questions, I want to know if you’re anywhere close to my father,” Jeremiah asked, the urgency in his voice eliciting intrigue in the butler.[“Unfortunately, I’m not in Master Reginald’s presence but he is in the estate”]“That’s good. Now, I want you to go find my father and put me on speaker phone cause there’s something I want to tell the two of you—“ Jeremiah said but was interrupted. [“Is that Jeremiah?”] Lynette asked excitedly. [“Yes, Lady Lynette. It is”] Kingston replied and Jeremiah groaned.[“Great! I’ve been dying to talk to him so give me the phone!”] Lynette instructed, her hand already
CHAPTER 301
Jeremiah walked around the store in a soured mood, arrived at the front, and got on his motorcycle. He drove back home, all the while thinking about Grey Lucian, who was someplace he couldn’t find, and the fact that he couldn’t tell if Grey was watching him as he went back to the estate pissed him off. Anyone else would have been in a constant state of fear and worry but not Jeremiah. He believed in his capabilities as a dragon and mage and that he was able to have a calm mind. Plus, he knew that it would take some time for the members of Dark Emblem to be ready enough to attack him so in that meantime he was safe. The future, however, was a different story. For the moment, Jeremiah’s concern was on the issue of the tracking spell Grey had put on him. From the looks of it, Grey might have either been telling the truth or lying through his teeth because no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t sense the magic of the spell on him. Even if he could sense the mana, it would only mean
CHAPTER 300
Jeremiah’s face twitched after hearing Andrews call him his other name. “So you know about my real identity too. That’s interesting” Jeremiah scoffed then did a scan of the other people standing and watching him and Andrews. “That’s a neat trick. Unfortunately, your illusions don’t work on me— not anymore anyway— so it would be better if you just deactivate it and stop wasting mana” Jeremiah said. Andrews looked at the other people on the premises, who smiled at him and Jeremiah, groaned and said “I wonder what changed to make my magic no longer work on you. Is it perhaps that box you won from the auction because it would make sense why you were so interested in it.” Andrews chuckled, returned his gaze to Jeremiah, and continued, “It’s a shame I didn’t see how valuable it was to bid for it. But even if I had, you would have outbid me, wouldn’t you?” Andrews deactivated his illusion magic and everyone on the premises, beside him and Jeremiah, disappeared. “…” Jeremiah refraine
CHAPTER 299
Reliving his memories of the auction, Jeremiah started to notice some strange inconsistencies with them like a veil was being lifted off his mind. To be specific, his memories of Andrews and Martha took on a different and clearer light and he realized the truth which was that there was nobody like Martha in the entire auction. However, that didn’t make sense because not only him but the auctioneer and everyone else in the auction house interacted with her so what was going on?Jeremiah was confused and the more his memories of the auction cleared, the more he understood until finally he realized what happened— Martha was never real and was created by an illusion spell to trick not just him but everyone else in the auction. Just as he figured that out and the false memories were cleared off his mind, leaving only the real one, Jeremiah realized that he had figured out the truth before but back when he did, something— the veil as he termed it— covered his mind and made him forget unt
CHAPTER 298
All the salespeople who saw Jeremiah walk past them greeted him because they remembered seeing him go to the auction area with the manager earlier. Then not king after, Jeremiah made it out of the store. He walked over to his motorcycle and got on. However, instead of driving away, he first called Daniel to let him know that he had gotten the ring.He took out his phone from his pocket, woke the screen, and to his surprise he had two missed calls from Daniel that came during the auction.“That’s right, I put my phone on silent mode when I entered the auction house so as not to cause any distractions,” Jeremiah said to himself.The manager had been the one who asked him if his phone was on silent mode and told him to put it on when they entered the auction area. It was a rule of the auction house that all phones were either switched off or on silent mode so they didn’t make noise.Jeremiah quickly deactivated his phone’s silent mode and called Daniel.After ringing for a few seconds,
CHAPTER 297
“Thank you all for coming. We promise to get even better items and invite you guys for an even better experience in the near future. As for those who won the auctioned items, your items will be ready for you when you leave so be sure to get them on your way out.” The auctioneer took a deep breath and sighed— happy with the turnout of the day’s auction as it was the most successful one he had ever hosted.“I have been Evans Nelson, your auctioneer for today and I’ll be seeing you guys really soon,” The auctioneer said, bowed in respect, and walked away while the bidders clapped for him.Since they had accomplished their purpose for being there, everyone started getting up from their seats but instead of leaving like they normally would, they hung around. They talked to each other, discussing the experience they had with that particular auction, while their eyes were discretely on Jeremiah, waiting for the perfect moment to talk to him. They had been planning their approach ever since
CHAPTER 296
“Two hundred million dollars!” Andrew’s words echoed through the entire auction house. “Wow,” the auctioneer said, a strong look of amazement adorned on his face “To think that I wouldn’t even get the chance to call the starting price before it got pushed to such an insane amount. Looks like I can always count on you, Master Andrews, to make this auction very interesting.” Though everyone was annoyed by Andrews's offer, the auctioneer was elated. Since the price had been made to start at two hundred million dollars and he was to get five percent of that, his ten million dollars was already set.Ten million dollars, however, wasn’t enough for the auctioneer. He was greedy— wanting more money—and for that, he had to see if the other bidders were willing to up the price. Martha had said earlier that none of the other bidders should bother bidding when Andrews had taken interest in any of the items being auctioned because he was always going to outbid them and that pissed the auctionee
