"Young master." Alfred sighed as he looked at Mark not knowing what to say next.

The youngster was just too amazing, he had managed to seal a deal he was having problems with in just over ten minutes. Even though the enmities between the families were there they had to be reversed while conducting business.

Neither of the two would accept that they were the cause of the misfortune of the other. So there was nothing to worry about. No matter how much the families were to fight, they were going to laugh and smile at each other in Public.

That was the rule and it was cruel as such. If one day the Clarkson family succeeded in eliminating the four families, the higher-ups would cover it up and prevent the ordinary people from knowing the truth.

Those who knew the truth would be asked to keep their mouth shut and not to spread unnecessary rumors. While the really powerful ones would know the reason. That was such the way of society.

It was the same thing that had happened during the death o

    Ma'am Elizabeth frowned as she stared at Michelle and Mark who were about to enter the restaurant. She wouldn't have seen them if Philip hadn't called her attention to them.Well since they were here, she wasn't too to allow them to have a good time, she would ensure they didn't have a pleasant time here, especially Mark. She had been longing to see him fall from grace. But no matter what she did, she wasn't successful.Mark's expression on the other hand was unnatural, how the hell had they run in Ma'am Elizabeth when they had only come to eat? Mark knew that he was going to have to abolish his plan as there was no way his mother-in-law would allow them to have a nice meal."There you go Michelle, how unfilial have you been, I suddenly lost your contact and yet you forgot about your mother." Ma'am Elizabeth smiled as she approached Michelle with a smile pulling her into a hug.Ma'am Elizabeth's change of attitude had caught him off guard that he didn't know how to react for a second.

    "And what do you have to say?" Ma'am Elizabeth frowned as she looked at Mark."It's nothing much." Mark shrugged as he stared back at Ma'am Elizabeth.At this moment, he was already done eating and was feeling rather full. He had to thank Ma'am Elizabeth for buying him a meal since he was rather hungry."Are you insane or what?" Ma'am Elizabeth frowned as she stared at Mark.Mark frowned as he stared back at Ma'am Elizabeth wondering where she was trying to head to."How dare you interfere in the talk between me and my daughter?" Ma'am Elizabeth continued as she stared at Mark."I didn't interfere, I just said the truth as it also concerns me." Mark shrugged, not giving in to Ma'am Elizabeth's look."How dare you? Insolent brat?" Ma'am Elizabeth continued."I'm sorry, but you can't take my wife away without her permission, also she said she's not interested in going with you. Also, about you handling the company, I think you have to ask the owner first." Mark shrugged."How dare you s

    Ma'am Elizabeth's fade twitched as she watched Michelle and Mark leave. Her face was red from anger, but there was nothing she could do."Curse that child." She muttered angrily under her breath before leaving the restaurant.With her nature, there was no way she was going to forgive Mark easily. Just at that moment, she remembered what Mark said."Ohh I see.... Did my parents die in an accident or someone staged an accident to kill them." Mark's words rang in her head and she couldn't help but shiver.At that moment, she couldn't help but wonder if he knew something she didn't know. There was no way it was possible. Even if he wanted to investigate his parent's death, there was no way the Smiths and the other families involved were going to agree to it.No matter how hard Ma'am Elizabeth thought about it, she just couldn't understand what gave Mark the confidence to utter such words. Could it be that he was trying to see her reaction?She knew that Mark was cunning and that she might

    Mark frowned as he picked up his phone wondering why Albert was calling at this time of the night."Young master, I hope you're not asleep yet?" Alfred's voice came just as Make picked up the call."Yeah, I've not fallen asleep.""There's a lead on the investigation and I'm afraid you won't be able to take in the news." Alfred sighed from the other end of the phone.Make took in a deep breath as he waited for Alfred to say what he wanted to say."According to the investigation, the cause of the accident of your parents might be related to your foster mother.""I see," Mark muttered."I'll hang up then." Alfred sighed as he could feel Mark's muffled breathing.Mark on the other hand was deflated the moment he heard the news. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe, but it was too hard to be true.Even though Alfred had only told him that he wasn't sure for the moment and that the investigation was good to continue, he just couldn't understand what was going on.He was sure that Alfred

    Alfred sighed as he paced around the mansion not knowing what next to do. Even though he wasn't sure yet. According to the investigation leads, it was his foster mother who was the cause of his parent's accident.He had tried to think about it, but then he just didn't know where to start. Why would the five families join hands with such a small family to wipe them out at that time?They were afraid of something which wasn't clear to Alfred. Also at that time, the power of the Clarkson family was very great and not many could contend with them.But then even at that, the four families weren't able to acquire even one-third of the Clarkson family wealth as Mark's parents were quite wise so even after their death what they were able to get was very limited.The family of Mark's Foster mother was only able to get some company which was why they were not on the scale of the other families, if not, the Clarkson family wealth at that time was enough to push them to the very top and even incr

    The next morning, Mark dressed up after Michelle went to work and headed to Alfred's place. There were many questions on his mind and he had to clarify them."Young master, here you are." Alfred smiled immediately as Mark entered the sitting room. He had been expecting him as he knew he was going to come."Is what you said yesterday over the phone the truth or just a speculation?" Mark frowned going straight to the point."It's the truth." Alfred sighed.He received a call last night from one of his men saying it was the truth, not a speculation, but there was yet to be evidence.Mark's heart sank upon hearing Alfred's words. He had wanted it to be a speculation, but hearing Alfred saying it was the truth plummeted him into the abyss. He couldn't take it.The one whom he took as his mother was the one who had mustard his family for personal gains. Just to steal their wealth. Mark couldn't help but sigh."Is there any evidence yet?""Not yet, there's no evidence, they are still looking

    Ma'am Elizabeth sucked in some cold air hearing Michelle's question, she had never expected a day like this to come. She wondered where Michelle had heard it from.It seems like her thoughts were right, Mark was already investigating the death of his parents. But then why didn't the families involved do anything to stop him? She was sure that they knew that he was investing.Was he so powerful now that there was no way to stop him? That shouldn't be the reason. Or could it be that some other circumstances had happened along the way?No matter how Ma'am Elizabeth thought about it, she just couldn't understand what was happening."Mum, you've yet to answer my question." Michelle's cold voice came from the other end of the phone."Fine, since you want to know the truth, I'll let you know." Ma'am Elizabeth snapped, feeling annoyed."I'm the real mastermind behind Mark's parent's death and even the five prominent families were only a pawn in the game.""All I did was incite hatred, I didn'

He loved his children the most and he was going to continue to love them.What he had gone through in the hands of Ma'am Elizabeth made him realize how much parental love mattered to children."Fine, let's go get something to eat." Mark smiled, putting down the children gently and walking to the dining table which was not too far from the parlor.Sure enough, there was food on the table as the maids had prepared them. They would come and go back every day. Mark smiled as he sat at the table with his children."Dad, this is so sweet, taste it." Emily took a piece of meat and placed it in front of Mark.Mark smiled and patted her head before eating the meat. Soon Ethan offered his own and Mark smiled, eating the piece of meat."Now you two eat or else you'll become skinny." Mark smiled as he asked them to eat their food an

Mark smiled as he caught his daughter who had run into his arms as if something was pursuing her.Soon, a young boy around the same age ran into the room. But immediately, he saw Mark, he immediately tried to run back."Ethan came back here," Mark called out to the boy before he could run away.The little boy reluctantly stopped and walked towards Mark. "Why are you bullying your twin sister?" Mark smiled as he looked at the man who seemed rather rebellious."I wasn't bullying her, she was the one who started first," Ethan argued in his small voice."No, he was the one who started." Emily, who was in Mark's arms, quickly argued back."Okay you two stop arguing, I told you, brothers and sisters are meant to protect each other not to fight."

    A smirk appeared at the corner of Mark's mouth seeing the assassin approach him at full speed. He could guess what the assassin's intentions were and that was to make him his hostage so that he would be able to escape. What a bad thing that he had made the wrong decision.Just as he got closer to Mark, he aimed the knife at Mark hoping to intimidate him, but the latter smiled and evaded the assassin before kicking him in his torso.Before the assassin could react, he was apprehended by the man who had already caught up to him.Before he could do anything to take his life, they had already disarmed him rendering him incapable of doing anything else.Soon another car pulled up and Alfred alighted from the car.

He had also taken care of the four families themselves.But that didn't come without a price. They also had to lose some things and he had to sacrifice toe days' worth of sleep just to accomplish it. He had also visited the company he had collected from Ma'am Elizabeth and made quite some changes so he felt it was time to sleep.Also, Michelle had been taking good care of her mother's company and there had been improvement which he was quite happy about. But then he had to sleep. Since he came back the night before, he had been sleeping and this was already noon of the next day and he was still sleeping.God knows why Michelle didn't go to work that day and came

    (AT THE FOUR SEASONS HOTEL)Four old men sat around a table as they laughed and cheered with each other while looking at the news.Looking closely at the men, one would see that they were the heads of the four families who fled from the city. They were all hiding here as they expected Make to fall into their trap."I can't believe the Clarkson family fell for our trap." One of the old men laughed as he drank bks beer."I told you, the young master of the Family is greedy and would surely follow our plan." Another of the old men laughed and the other three couldn't help but feel delighted.It had taken careful deliberation before they were able to come up with the plan of fooling the Clarkson family in such a way. They were quite confident that they weren't going to notice and that the person who might have noticed was the old butler.But then it seems like the old butler didn't notice. But then even if the old butler noticed what could they do? Refusing to accept it meant they were a

Michelle is tired of the workload and goes back to sleep immediately leaving Mark and Alfred together."We are going to crush them all at once this time." Mark smiled as he looked up, his eyes flashing with ruthlessness and determination. there was no going back. He was already here so there was no way he was going to back away.Alfred was quite shocked at Mark's reply, but still, he didn't say anything and modded."Unleash all of our forces, it's time to tell the world that the Clarkson family is still alive and they are still as strong or even stronger than then they used to be." Mark smiled.Alfred knew that in the face of their full strength, the four families wouldn't be able to do anything. Mark had just been playing with them all along and now it was time for the real battle.Mark on the other hand didn't plan on sl

    "Young master, what do you think we should do about the four families?" Alfred frowned as he looked at Make who was taking a look at the papers in his hand.It was already nighttime and Michelle had already gone to bed as Mark told her he wanted to take her to a place the next day which made her go to bed rather early.Mark frowned as he listened to Alfred. He had asked Alfred to launch a massive attack on the four families and it seems like they had recovered even though they might have not recovered properly.He had already finished the virus program he was creating, all he needed to do was to inject it into their systems and it was going to end. Mark was going to make sure to destroy the four families without any mercy.There was no way he was going to keep them. They were like a thorn to him and would injure even more people as time went by. If not for the fact that the Smith family had surrendered at the right time, he would have finished them off, erasing them from the face of t

Michelle was beaming with a smile as she looked around for Mark. But no matter how she looked she couldn't see him anywhere which confused her a lot."Don't worry, the young master will be here soon." Alfred smiled as he comforted Michelle who seemed to be uneasy because she couldn't see Mark.Michelle had no other choice but to nod and continue to patiently wait for Mark to come.
