Before Sett could react, Macho Karl grabbed his shirt, nearly shredding it. Their faces were a breath apart.

"He's lying, if I didn't stop him just now, he would truly hit you with that baseball bat!" Kate spoke with a serious expression.

"Bastard, is it true what my daughter said?" Macho Karl roared, his saliva practically spraying.

"She's your daughter?" Sett blurted out in shock. This oaf was his father.

No matter how Sett examined Macho Karl, he couldn't find any similarity that would indicate she was his daughter! Although he was thinking this, he didn't dare say it aloud....

"Huh, you don't believe me?" Macho Karl's face darkened.

Suddenly, two cards dropped from Sett's trousers.

"Hm, what's this?" Macho Karl raised his eyebrows and picked up the two cards. His eyes scanned the card. It was then that his eyes almost popped out of shock. He looked at Sett then back at the ID card.

"Arm-Force... Rank, Second Lieutenant...." Macho Karl gazed at Sett from top to bottom. How i

    "How did you know?" Sett curiously gazed at Macho Karl, while using the back of his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead."Mr. Crow, I was informed in advance by the Chairwoman, Madam Jane. She told me you were coming and inquired about me being your fitness instructor. Honestly, I didn't know that it was you, Mr. Crow, until you started to seriously exercise." Macho Karl spoke solemnly."So that's why..." Sett nodded his head. Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow. "Wait, what did you call Ms. Scarlett again?""Um, Madam Jane, the Chairwoman?""You're telling me that she's a chairwoman? In what company then?" Sett furrowed his brows. Now he was genuinely confused."Mr. Crow, the City knows that Madam Jane is the richest entrepreneur in the Darian City. She owns the Red Grapes Winery, which has a billion dollars in net profit yearly, and what's crazy is that it's just one of her businesses!" Macho Karl spoke while raising his hand in admiration.On the other hand, Sett creased his brows in

    "....Alright, I'll be on my way." Sett then ended the call. He frowned as he stared at his car. He started striding forward. At this time, Bernard and Neil sat on the car's front bumper while having the time of their lives, basking in the limelight. The girls keep winking at the two of them while calling them "handsome" and "rich". "Girls, don't worry. I'll take you to my hundred-million-dollar villa! I even brought my two million, reventon, for you beautiful and elegant ladies!" Bernard laughed boisterously. "Will come only if you take us for a ride, and I'll bring my girlfriends, and we wouldn't mind being your raiding partners, Sir. Bernard." A girl with a ponytail and a temping figure trailed her slender finger on the car, before putting her hand flirtatiously on Bernard's shorts and then to his shirt, just below his neck. She was gazing intently at Bernard as if he was a treasure trove. Bernard quavered in excitement. He hadn't thought that just claiming he owned the Lamb

    When Sett arrived at the Divine Grace Hospital, he quickly rushed toward the upper floor, only to be stopped by two middle-aged nurses. "This is a private ward. Sir, we don't allow beggars to enter!" The nurse was furious that the security guard allowed a beggar to even enter the hospital premises. Just look at how he was dressed! "I'm not a beggar!" "Then what are you? You're barely wearing anything. A little more cut and you'll be naked!" The nurse scoffed at him while her face twitched, feeling disgusted at the sight of Sett's ripped shirt and shorts. "Um... Look, I'm in this state because a group of ladies ripped them apart." Sett hurriedly explained himself. At the same time, he felt helpless about being suspected as a hobo. Nevertheless, if he was put in their shoes, he would also think the same. "Ha! Do I look stupid to you?" The nurse rolled her eyes in annoyance. Sett was just about to show his identity card to prove his point. When he suddenly noticed that he had some

    Sett let out a breath. Yesterday's meeting with his wife, Sheila, had greatly affected his mind. Nevertheless, because he had an important appointment, he still dressed up and arrived at the city center, where the famous corporation was located. Its corporate name was "Dreams Do Come True". It was an entertainment industry. The exterior of the building looked classy and futuristic, which was quite cool. 'I'm looking forward to entering such a famous corporation.' Sett beamed a confident smile. Looking around Sett saw a huge billboard of famous actresses at the top of the building. This morning, Sett had received a call from Ms. Scarlett this morning stating that the President's assignment for him had officially started. Ms. Scarlett suggested buying a stock share in the entertainment industry. Sett had a weird feeling. "Ms. Scarlett had always taken care of my affairs... but personally buying a property share from those big shots, I guess it would be a different experience."

    "Who the f*ck are you guys? Don't you know who I am?" Edmond glared at everyone. "I'm the one who owns this place! If I wanted someone to get lost, that person had to roll! You don't believe me? Wait, you bastards. I'll call my uncle Edward now. Let's see if you'll get an audition!"A vein popped on his forehead, as Sett understood that things were increasingly becoming troublesome.Everyone was starting to gossip. "Edward? Isn't that one of the supervisors of the entertainment industry?" With that, everyone quickly shut their mouths. No wonder Edward lacked respect for everyone. They quickly backed off, not siding with Sett any longer, for fear of earning the eerie of Edmond.Damn it! Sett clicked his tongue, he was depressed as the supervisor was getting involved. He could only hope that the supervisor would be impartial. Shortly after a man in his fifties got out of the "Dreams Do Come True" building with a group of bodyguards, he was supervisor Edward. "Nephew, what's the mat

    "Ms. Scarlett, is Mr. Crow not offended by my making him come here in person?"One of the board of directors shared his thoughts with a rather anxious expression. No, it was not just him. The other members of the board of directors present in the room had an uneasy expression as if they were standing on a single cord wire. Yet, no one could really blame their reaction as they would be meeting an entity that they could only look up to. The Crow family was an existence that they could look at but not reach. Moreover, seeing them in the flesh was already a challenge.To their knowledge, even someone like Ms. Scarlett had to work under them, and who was Ms. Scarlett? She was one of the pinnacles of the richest people in Darian City! She was a true billionaire! "Don't be nervous, Chief Director, Ainsworth. You see, Mr. Crow is a very compassionate man. It's not like he will bite you or anything." Ms. Scarlett giggled in her melodic voice. However, her words didn't calm the directors a

    "It's been a while, Elena. You look stunning as ever!" Sett praised his sister-in-law.In the back of his head, he was thinking. 'Why is Elena here? Darn it, I shouldn't have used the side entrance.' At the same time, Sett also knew that it was impossible to use the main entrance without revealing his real identity, which was a big "No" to him. "Stunning?" Elena narrowed her eyes. "Heh, brother-in-law, are you telling the truth? You aren't lying to me, like other guys?" Elena said, with all seriousness, while twirling her hair. Sett forced a smile on his face. "Of course, your beautiful Elena. Why would I lie to my sister-in-law?" Hearing Sett's answer, a cunning grin appeared on Elena's exquisite face. "Then, who's prettier, me or my sister?"Sett became tongue-tied, how was he supposed to answer her question? He let out a breath. This was one of the reasons why he didn't like to speak with Elena. She was just difficult to talk to! "Um, honestly saying, I think your sister is

    The old Nokia that Sett was holding crashed on the gym's mat, and while his expression altered between pale and red, the shock and anger that he felt at that moment muddied his judgment. Who wouldn't be in this state when their loved ones were about to be stripped naked for questioning?How could someone do that to a minor? If they aren't monsters, then what are they? Sett clenched his teeth. Dammit! Threatening his young sister? Those cops must be tired of living. It would be a lie if he said that he wasn't feeling like skinning someone alive, and it would be an understatement if he didn't yearn to outright murder those cops.Yet, he had to suppress his anger. No, he had to control his boiling rage, as he knew that he was dealing with two police officers. Things would blow out of proportion if the situation wasn't handled carefully. He also knew that it was detrimental if his decision was clouded by emotion.Sett took a deep breath, calming his nerves. He still had time to head towa

    Jane was discussing the plan to everyone, which took a lengthy amount of time to properly formulate in order to avoid any kind of problems with the plan. Sett was also listening very closely as he was assigned a very crucial role in the plan. He was assigned as Azula’s compulsory plus one, which Azula agreed since Sett isn’t a Sapphire House subordinate.After everything fell into place, and everyone agreeing to their assigned positions, the meeting was finally adjourned. Azula dismissed the twelve and instructed them to start the preparations immediately, while letting Jane and Sett stay for there was something that she wishes to address to the both of them in private.As the twelve finally left the room, the atmosphere suddenly became breathable again, aside from the sudden silence that filled the air. Azula and Jane just sat there, not uttering a single word and just waiting on whoever breaks the silence first.Sett then thought of something mischievous that made him smirk.“Hey, A

    Dear Ms. Rowena Azula Crow I am writing this letter to request personnel from the Sapphire House for an upcoming mission. I only ask for one individual, and I request that it would be you, Ms. Crow. Before we start with the formal briefing for the mission, I would like to Test your capabilities first, since the latest aid that I requested proved to be incompetent. Mock Training will begin tomorrow at the Emerald House’ Training Grounds. I’ll be expecting your attendance tomorrow, at 7pm. Please be there on time. Sincerely yours: Roman Isaac Crow“And that’s that.” Azula said as she finished reading the letter. “The nerve of that brat to ask for another assistance request.” she added.After Azula folded the letter back inside its envelope. Everyone inside the room stared at her, a

    Chapter 185: An Unexpected Surprise

    Sett left the Medical Room, leaving Jessica inside. As he was walking down the hallway, he was contemplating everything that he had learned so Far. Even though he was feeling a bit at ease because he had learned so much about his real family, it was still a lot of information to take in for someone who just arrived the very same day.By the time that Sett finally got time for himself, it was already almost midnight. He decided that he should just call it a day and go to his room to rest. He walked back towards the lobby to head upstairs and finally hit the hayAs Sett was about to go up the stairs, the sound of knocking suddenly resonated across the whole lobby, there was no one there other than himself so he opened the door. The moment he opened up the door, there was no one there. The only thing that’s there was a sealed envelope.It was addressed to his Aunt Zula, but he thought that she was already asleep. He closed the door and decided that he should keep this letter for now and

    Sett raised his eyebrows in confusion as response to Jessica's statement. It was as if she was expecting that he would ask her about it then and there. She finished tidying up the equipment then grabbed a chair to sit next to Sett. Her eagerness was as if she was a child, trying to share something she just knew to her parents.“So how much do you currently know about it?” Jessica meticulously asked before sharing everything she knew to Sett.Sett was a little bit surprised and curious about how much she actually knew about. Intrigued with whatever information that she could give, he decided to lay down a brief and still non-detailed outline of everything he knew, still leaving some parts hidden for Azula’s sake.As Sett finished the information dropping, Jessica gave her a skeptical look. She had a hunch that there was some information that Sett withheld from her, which was understandable. She didn’t want to pry on whatever it was he and his aunt talked about upstairs. She knew that

    “You’re joking, right?” Sett asked in bewilderment of the sudden revelation that just presented itself to him.His statement somehow managed to anger Jessica even more. She paced herself slowly towards where Sett was standing with clenched fists, ready to bust his head again. With her choosing violence as her response, Sett was forced to apologize for his statement earlier to avoid any other conflict to arise.“I should be the one to ask you that you prick!” Jessica naggingly said to Sett. “There’s no way that you’ve spent all that time at Mother Azula’s office, and not learned of the foundational rules that your house has!” she added.“I did learn a little bit about the foundational rules, but…” Sett was cutted off mid sentence.“See! Now you admit that you do know about the House’ foundational rules! But why the fuck didn’t you use that and deny Young Master Roman’s request, huh?!” Jessica furiously said.Though Sett was getting a little irritated with Jessica’s aggressive accusatio

    Chapter 182: The Untimely Truth

    “Oh, my apologies Sett! I must have been hit by the memories of old a little too strongly.” Azula said as she wiped the tears off her face.However, Sett wasn’t convinced by such reasons. Sure, you could cry when you’re hit with nostalgia, but that is out of a joyful, euphoric feeling that overwhelms you to the brink of crying. But in Azula’s case, Sett noticed that her tears weren’t a product of such positive feelings.In fact it was the total opposite. Sett sensed that, the moment he saw her eyes devoid of life. An imperfect match for her ocean blue eyes, that seemed so full of life. He thought that whatever was bothering her, seemed like a burden that was still weighing down his Aunt, even until now.“Are you sure you’re alright Aunty?” Sett asks, deeply in concern for what Azula is feeling.Azula just looked at Sett with heavy laden eyes. She wanted to tell him about what really happened to his dad. However, it was still too early for him to know the truth. If he’d learn about it

    With Azula willing to tell him everything he wanted to know, with a promise that no form of information would be held back. Sett felt conflicted. After all, there is a pressing concern that they should face first. As much as Sett wanted to sit down and potentially receive all the answers to his questions, he couldn’t overlook the fact that there is a life at risk.He was about to reason out with Azula and decline the opportunity she presented to him, but Azula cutted him off by standing up and walking towards a bookshelf near her office table. She took out a very old, hard-bound book from the top shelf. The dust that it accumulated is the indication of how long that book was left untouched.“This book holds everything that you want to know if you wish to learn more about our family’s history.” Azula stated as she gently blew on the book, revealing its true worn-out, rustic black cover.Upon further inspection, there was an embedded mark on one side of the book covers. It was a mark o

    Chapter 180: It All Starts Here

    “What the hell were you thinking Aunty?!” shouting Sett’s voice could be heard outside of Azula’s office. “Even a person who is mentally impaired could easily understand what wretched hell awaits Ann at the hands of that swine!” he exclaimed, making sure that Azula captures how dire Ann’s situation is, now that she’s in Roman’s clutches.Azula on the other hand, was assessing the situation silently, while sitting on the couch. She understood the way Sett feels especially after the stunt his emotionally and mentally disordered cousin pulled earlier. But this wasn’t the time for them to start acting like helpless children.All Azula could think of was Ann’s safety. She must come up with something to insure Ann’s safety, especially when the one she’s with is her psychoneurotic nephew. Now the question is “how?”. It would be useless for her to just recklessly barge herself through the Emerald House’s front doors because Roman would have told them about the whole thing.She also couldn’t

    Chapter 179: True Colors

    While Roman was still on the floor, wiping the blood off his nose. He scoffs, then proceeds to laugh in amusement, acknowledging the fact that Sett caught him off guard. Roman somehow considered it as an entertaining happenstance, that Sett found a small window of opportunity, and took it to give him a cheap shot like that.“That was very clever. Still a cheap shot, but it was clever.” Roman said as he stood up from the floor and fixed his now wrinkled button down shirt. “However, I’m not in the mood to fight you anymore. So stop cock-blocking me, and get the hell away from Azula.” He added with an irritated voice.“Make me.” Sett provokingly responded.Roman’s blood started to boil after hearing Sett’s remarks. At that moment, he thought that it would be an easy win to get past Sett since he didn’t possess that much threat. But what concerned him was how Azula would react right after. Roman glanced at Azula and saw how composed she still is. Even after what happened, she still seemed
