In Sett's excitement, he started examining the other notebooks and cards inside the suitcase. To his surprise, he found a driver's license! And all of the information and appearances came from him.

"Seriously, how is this possible?" Sett murmured, literally dumbfounded by this discovery. He didn't stop there, as he started examining the other cards, and that's when he became speechless.

'How should I say this? This is too much.' Sett reflected as he examined the important cards in his hand, which included a military card with the large word "Arm-force of the United States" and others from various countries. If he could spell it in one phrase, then that would be "amazing!"

Sett decided to ask Grandpa Mark about how he made these essential cards. But why is there no debit card or credit card?

At least Grandpa Mark shouldn't forget about the money. Although these cards are important.

'On second thought, Grandpa Mark never lacked money. Maybe he thought these blue diamonds would suffic

    The snobbish female employee was stunned and fearful of why the manager's attitude toward her became hostile."I'll deal with you later!" Ms. Jasmine had almost lost a great deal with a customer. Because of the employee's negligence, of course, she would be wrathful towards her employee, and judging from the actions of the gentleman when handing the blue diamonds, he may have come from an extraordinary background. Ms. Jasmine hastily turned around to face Sett, who was calmly watching everything as though it had nothing to do with him.On the other hand, the snobbish employee's face turns pale. She knew how ruthless Ms. Jasmine could be towards her employees when they made mistakes. She felt like crying. Now, she could only kiss her job goodbye. It is impossible not to feel regretful. Why did she look down on this fatty? She glared daggers at Sett, cursing him in her mind."Sir, my name is Jasmine Pearce, and I am a branch manager of the Treasure Palace conglomerate.

    "Who would have thought that a young man was capable? Imagine putting those rare blue diamonds that would be worth at least dozens of millions dollars inside a plastic bag! That's simply absurd.... That boy is really something." A middle-aged man filled with admiration, as he said that to his rich friend beside him. "Heh, one can't judge a book by its cover. Tsk tsk. That boy is honestly humble. He didn't even throw his weight around when he got that much money on him, unlike some people here who only know how to appear rich when in truth they aren't so capable. Isn't that right, Mike?" The middle-aged man's friend replied with a smile while poking fun at the couple who insulted Sett not too long ago. The couple had an ugly look on their faces. "Isn't he just lucky? That much money is merely pocket money for me and my wife, hmmph!" After saying that, they headed toward the door. Although they wanted to remain, their hearts were being scratched by a cat in curiosity. If those blue di

    "Xander, Amanda?" Sett frowned as he realized it was his two cousins. Xander was a handsome man, and Amanda was a beautiful girl, but because of her sharp and sarcastic remarks, Sett always tried to get far away from her, like she was some kind of plague.Also, Xander had a long feud with him; his cousin Xander had always wanted to suppress him; after all, he was the young master of the Crossword family and had the same qualifications to be the next head of the family, so Xander would want to get rid of him."Oh! Do you still remember me and my overweight cousin? Don't be pretentious next time, alright? Calling someone like it's something important, ha! Stop acting, will you? But I have to say your acting is somewhat good. Giving you a title as a " Pig Actor" would be a sensation." Xander coldly chuckled. "Anyway, what are you doing here when Grandpa has already banished you two? It's not that I want to insult you, siblings, especially you Fatty, but I've got to say, after being chased

    Sett and Nini, who had just taken a seat, were suddenly reprimanded by the Crossword family waitress. Sett stopped his sister from standing up, but he did awkwardly stand up from his seat. It was impossible not to feel embarrassed when most of the guests were already seated and only the waitresses and the waiter were standing up to serve the guests. "Why are you standing there? Have you no manners? You're supposed to greet your uncles and aunts. How disrespectful. The family head's decision to cut ties with your parents was the right one." Madam Claire spoke in a taunting manner, and because her voice was quite loud, as though she was afraid that everyone wouldn't hear her, as the guests' eyes were now on Sett and Nini. She had intentionally done this to embarrass them all the more. "Waiter, give this nephew of mine the wine bottle. Now, now, Sett, be a good boy and serve us some wine to drink."Sett could feel his sister's anxious grip on his shirt, and he led Nini to a seat in the

    "Happy? You must be kidding me, my pig cousin. As long as you're alive, I won't let you off so easily." Xander had always hated Sett since childhood. He was often second in everything because of his cousin. Sett was good at both academics and sports, so the family elders always praised him. These invoke Xander's jealousy and envy toward him. After Sett's parents were kicked out of the Crossword family, Xander and his cousin Amanda, who also hated Sett, wouldn't let go of the opportunity to suppress him and teach him a lesson."Stop talking, the family head has arrived!"At this time, everyone stood up and clapped as an elderly man wearing sharp attire was accompanied by the Crossword family elders. He was heading toward the officials who were sitting at the guest of honor’s table. This elderly man was none other than the Crossword family head—"Francisco Crossword"—and also Sett's grandfather."Don Francisco, I wish you great health and prosperity for your Crossword family.

    As the Phantom Car's doors were pushed open, a woman walked out. At that instant, everyone's eyes were drawn to her. Like she was some kind of a magnet. She was extremely beautiful in her pink gown while her hair was tied in a bun. Xander was dazed as he was struck by her naturally green eyes. The hot-blooded young men that were present had their eyes shaped into hearts. On the other hand, the woman was green with jealousy.At this point, someone in the crowd recognized the lady."Isn't she the young missus of the Laurel family? Sheila Laurel. "She's gorgeous. No wonder the guys present are drooling over her." A lady in her twenties smiled bitterly as she saw her boyfriend's idiotic face as he kept staring at Ms. Sheila Laurel."I'm really jealous of her. Not only is she considered one of the most beautiful ladies in Darian City. She's considered a princess in the Laurel family. Her family owns one of the biggest real estate businesses in Darian City.

    Although others may perceive Young Master Marco's speaking as arrogance, he indeed had the capital to be arrogant as the Rotherford family had a vast number of properties in the city center, and it wasn't limited to just hotels but also well-known bars and a grand gambling casino! "My apologies to family head Francisco for being late for your birthday. But don't worry, family head Francisco, my grandfather had me prepare a lavish gift for you! I hope you can forgive my earlier rudeness!" Marco said, in a voice that was neither arrogant nor servile. He handed a black card with an intricate design to Family Head Francisco. "What! T-This young Master Marco, isn't this the highest VIP card in your family casino? This black card entitles the holder to a variety of benefits, the most important of which is a 20% discount!" "How can you just give it away?" The family head, Francisco, was taken aback by this gesture. He was also flattered. As only first-class families can enjoy the VIP car

    Young Master Marco, threats fell on deaf ears as Sett passed by him. Sett was now standing in front of the silent Sheila, who was coldly looking at him.Sett could hardly believe that his wife would have such a chilling gaze. Sett couldn't give up just yet! Who didn't know what kind of reputation the young master Marco of the Rotherford family had? Without breaking eye contact with his wife, Sett parted his dried lips. "My wife... I know you hate my guts. Yes, I'm a fat coward, a worthless piece of sh*t who can't even stand in front of his in-laws and protect the woman I love... Regardless, that's all from the past." At this point, Sett took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but as soon as he caught a glimpse of young master Marco, who was the reason his wife wanted to divorce him, his emotions started to flood out. "Sheila, you know that I always put you on a higher pedestal and treated you like a queen, and it's alright if we have a fight, as every relationship is mess

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.

    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.

    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
