After the Queen's night event, Harry watched as Lyra and Brian walked hand in hand, a smirk etched on his perfect features. Perhaps coming to the Queen’s night wasn't really a bad idea. Now that he had found out about one of Brian's numerous secrets, he was going to use this opportunity well. Becoming a leader of the Tycoon 6 was not a regular thing. Each member controls a large amount of wealth, in trillions of dollars. Tycoon 6, the coming together of six most powerful men in the country, and Brian was among? Isn't he a child compared to members? Even if they would respect him because his father was the past leader, that didn't mean Brian deserved to be the current leader. Harry chuckled darkly, his eyes filled with amusement. He was amused that a young man like Brian was dreaming of something so big and impossible. “He must be stupid.” he muttered below his breath, his voice dripping with disdain. However, he heard something like ‘the mysterious person behind the messages’. W
Brian stared at his phone screen, wondering who the mysterious man could be. His last statement shocked him, and he was yet to recover from it. He inhaled a sharp breath and said, “Yes, you're right. I ordered someone to track you down to get more information about the staff.” The old man chuckled softly, “And you think just anyone would be able to track me?” he asked, his voice laced with amusement. After years of working in the military, would a mere person be able to track his number? Hearing the old man's words, Brian narrowed his eyes, slightly confused. “What do you mean?” The old man sighed, “I'm saying it's impossible. You can't track me unless I reveal my location to you.” he said confidently, rendering Brian completely speechless. Just what was this old man saying? The number seemed like an ordinary number so there really shouldn't be anything surprising about it. Brian struggled to find the right words to say as he didn't want to sound rude. After all, this was the only
By James's reaction, Harry could tell how important the staff was to him. Finally, he was going to get back at Brian. First he would take the position as the leader from him, and perhaps become a Tycoon 6 member once he's kicked out. Harry smiled at the thought of Brian getting kicked out of the prestigious group. Ever since Brian became the CEO of the biggest Empire in Ashton Hills, he began to live in his shadow. Although Harry was still respected, but Brian was more sought out than he was. In every Event, Brian was always mentioned and recognized while he would be ignored as usual. Brian became a tall tower he could never reach while he remained below, at the same spot for years. The Heir of the McDaniels Empire, that was what everyone knew him as. For years he remained the heir as his position hasn't changed. Sometimes he even wished for his father's death so he could become the CEO, but his father was as strong as a horse. He never got sick even once. Instead he became strong
James chuckled at Harry's statement. Just like he thought, Harry was still obsessed with becoming a member. “Harry, just who do you think you are?” he asked as he glared at him, “I've told you several times that you're unworthy of this position. Even your father can't become a member of the Tycoon 6 but you want to become one? Are you insane?!” His voice thundered, rendering Harry completely speechless. “Do you think by offering to help me I'll really allow you to join the Tycoon 6? Are you that useful? Harry, don't think so highly of yourself. You're nothing important. Even if you don't decide to help me, you think I won't find someone else?” Harry clenched his fists by his side, trying to control the rage that was brewing inside of him. The fact that James called him useless and unimportant angered him to death. He scoffed, “Mr Walters, what's your conclusion? You're not working with me anymore?” “Of course. You've given me the information I need. Working with you is nothing spec
The young man was stunned by his Master's words. He wondered what relationship Brian had with his master. Since the old man already ordered him to open the gate, The young man bowed respectfully for Brian and allowed him in. Upon getting inside the huge building, Brian gasped in awe. The building was well structured with High pillars. Luxurious cars were packed in one side of the mansion, and there was also a small garden which was decorated with colorful flowers. Merely by the magnificent structure of the building, Brian could tell that the Old man was not an ordinary person. As soon as he got down from his car, he sighted an unfamiliar figure waiting patiently for him. The Old man had white hair and evident wrinkles on his face. His face was stern, and even in his old age, he looked strong. Sighting Brian, a sad smile appeared on his face as the fine man reminded him of Stanley Duke, Brian's father. His facial expression, the color of his hair and the aura around him. It was exac
“I know it's quite hard to handle but it's true. That's the whole truth.” Augustine said as he stared at Brian whose eyes were closed. Brian couldn't wrap his head around the fact that James was the traitor. He was the one obsessed with the staff of authority and the vault. That was the reason why he didn't want Brian to become the leader of Tycoon 6. James was indeed a sly cunning human. It was definitely a set up with the remaining members of the Tycoon 6. “Tell me more about the staff. What does the staff of authority have to do with the Vault?” Brian asked after a while as he leaned closer. Augustine then said, “The staff of authority is the only thing that can open the Vault, and the location of the Vault is written on the Staff of authority. Without the staff, no one can find the vault. That's why James is so obsessed with it.” Augustine then walked over to the wine cellar and picked a very expensive wine. He picked two glasses and poured some for Brian and himself. Walking
Augustine smiled when he saw Brian's expression. “You're an impatient young man, Brian.” he said as he walked over to his side to give him the file. Brian stared at the file in his hands and frowned, this was definitely a blueprint of his father's house. Why was it with Augustine? Without waiting for Brian to talk, Augustine then said, “Your father gave this to me. The staff of authority is in his building, but in a different part as you can see.” Brian stared at the file and asked suspiciously, “How did you know the staff is hidden here?” his voice held a hint of doubt as he stared at Augustine. No matter how true his words sounded, Brian still found it difficult to trust the Old man. “I told you your father and I hid the staff together. So that's the location of the staff.” He said curtly as he noticed Brian's intense gaze on him. If Brian should continue to doubt him this way, then it would be really bad. Augustine wanted to have Brian's trust. All of it. “Then you should know
In a luxurious exclusive 6 Star hotel, The Tycoon 6, the most formidable group in the whole country. Six most powerful and well known men could be seen seated as they were clearly waiting for the meeting to start. Brian watched the expression on each of their faces and smirked, wondering what could be going on in their minds. James had a stern look on his face as he stared at Brian. As Harry already told him he knew about the staff, he wondered what Brian's next step would be. Would he pretend not to know, or would he come out with the truth?“The Diadem Holdings, everything there has been settled. I think it's time for me to take my position as the leader of the Tycoon 6, right?” Brian said calmly as he stared at everyone, making them gasp as they were surprised by his boldness. Did he just ask for his position as the leader? Was he insane or out of his mind? “Mr Duke, I'm afraid you can't become the leader so soon.” Another member of the group named Leonard said. “You've only fi
