As a result, it seemed ridiculous that a bum like Chris claimed to be here to purchase a car.

“This crazy punk!...are you here to cause trouble for us this morning? It would be wise for you to leave while I'm still asking nicely.” The salesman snapped at Chris in a much harsher tone.

At this junction, a deep frown appeared on Chris’ face as he was also peeved by the salesman in appropriate behavior.

“Why am I being kicked out of the showroom? I don't think that I have done anything wrong to warrant such humiliating treatment. Is this how you attend to your customers in this place?” He complained in dissatisfaction.

The salesman grew more infuriated after listening to Chris' words. He didn't want to have to deal with such a nuisance very early in the morning.

“Are you kidding me right now? Do you even know what you are talking about or how much each of this car costs?”

“So what are you insinuating?

“Are you dumb or what?” The salesman groaned rhetorically. “I'm telling you that this

    In a few seconds, a few burly men in black uniforms were standing before Chris but despite their imposing figure, Chris remained unfazed.“I tried to be nice but you are forcing us to do this. You have one last chance to comply or don't blame us for our next action.” the salesman deadpanned in an aggressive tone.At this same moment, the showroom manager was making his rounds to supervise the activities of his employees. However, this scenario eventually attracted the attention of the showroom’s manager. “What’s going on? Why is it so noisy?”Seeing the manager walking over, the salesman got a little anxious inwardly. But he calmed down very quickly. “Sir, this bum is causing a ruckus here but I assure you that it's nothing to worry about. I was just about to chase him out.”That salesman acted as though he had done nothing wrong and was looking at Chris as though the latter was a fraud.The manager took a look at Chris and wasn't impressed by his appearance. He wondered how such a

    Chris had never in a million years expected the manager, who had been very kind and friendly just seconds earlier to chase him away after hearing that he was the matrilocal son-in-law of the Carter family’s matrilocal son-in-law. “ Even you….” he mumbled in disappointment.The manager sneered “It’s true that it’s my principle not to look down on anyone because even the most plainly dressed customer can be secretly wealthy. Unfortunately for you, Mr. Chris, you’re really too ordinary. You’re so ordinary that there’s no way you’ll ever have a chance to even prove yourself.”The one thing the manager wanted to do most was to chase this jinx out of the showroom.?‘Someone like this doesn’t deserve to be here.’“No, I’m here to buy a car. My identity has got nothing to do with that. In addition, you are all using my ruined reputation as an excuse to deprive me of the chance to buy a car here which I would not accept.” The manager sighed. He silently walked up to the cashier and brought a

    In less than twenty minutes, three black bentley pulled up in front of the car showroom. Several men dressed in black suit alighted the vehicle, escorting a young man in his twenties, who seemed to be their superior as they walked into the building.“Oh my good gracious God! Isn't that Mr Felix Landon, the newly appointed chairman of the clover group and the head of the Landon family?” one of the female staff working at the showroom squealed, catching the rest of her colleagues as she was the first one to sight felix.“It's true. It's really Felix Landon” another employee confirmed in an anxious tone. “ and he is headed straight for our stall?”The manager was easily distracted when he discovered what the commotion was all about. At this moment,he was no longer interested in chris. Instead, he hurriedly walked towards the door to personally welcome Felix to their showroom.The landon family was a first tier elite family that had a networth of at least five billion dollars and feli

    Everyone’s eyes were glued to the briefcase. They all wanted to know what was inside it and they were astounded to see that it was stacked with dollar notes. This scene proved a lot about Chris which was something that they never expected to happen. The whole of brooklyn knows that this guy is a good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law but to think that he was capable of ordering the felix landon to bring him a briefcase full of cash to buy a car was a spectacular feat. Felix was the head of the landon family and seeing how respectful he was acting to chris was enough to show that Chris held a higher authority if he had the power to control the head landon family which was ranked as a first tier elite family residing in brooklyn They were all dumbfounded. At that thought, countless eyes stared at Chris, their gazes filled with fear?‘Who is this man? Who is backing him, and what is he hiding?” “I-i will have the document prepared right away mr. landon” Manager Owens stuttered.

    Shortly afterward the paperworks and documents were fully prepared and was handed over to chris. By then, the manager personally handed over the car key to chris. As he received it, Chris casually said, “You’d better not say a word about what happened today; otherwise, I can’t promise you that you’ll stay alive.” Manger Owens nodded profusely in response as he wasn't foolish enough to mess with the landon family. “ I'll make sure that nobody hears about this incident. You can count on me sir,.” He said in an assuring tone as he quietly bowed to chris. Luckily. There weren't any customers in the store who witnessed this incident except for the showroom employees. Hence, it was going to be very easy to keep this matter under the wraps. Without saying any other words, Chris walked out towards the exit as the Porsche had already been parked outside the showroom. “I heard that you have fully taken over the reins of your family.” Chris said to Felix as soon as they stepped outside the

    Chris smiled after hearing Eva’s question. He already expected that he would be interrogated by her once she saw him driving the car. It was one the qualities he admired about her as she wasnt after materialistic material unlike most other women who wouldn't be bothered about finding out the origin of such items along as it meant that he could show off. “I bought it this morning after dropping you at work. It belongs to you and I'm here to make the delivery to you” He casually replied, giving an honest response as he had no intention of hiding the truth from Eva since she was already aware of the fact that he was secretly wealthy. “What?! W-What did you just say? Why would you buy me such a car? “ Eva blurted out as she was flabbergasted by Chris' response. “Your previous car has been wrecked. Considering your status as the CEO of Cross corporation, it's very inappropriate for you to be riding on my scooter to work everyday,'' Chris said. “I already told you that I was going to get

    Eva's lips curved into a small smile seeing her mother's joyful reaction to the news. Without wasting time, Kate immediately turned around and hurriedly ran into the house, “Bruce….Bruce….Come out now! Hurry up! Eva has bought a new car.” She screamed loudly, announcing the news to Bruce. She was feeling very emotional at this moment and it also gave her a deep sense of satisfaction that she hadn’t raised her daughter for nothing. Chris was also beaming with a smile as he watched Kate's child like antics. He knew that his mother-in-law was a person with a good heart even though she was always harsh on him. Kate was also a little bit eccentric and always seemed to be materialistic but she deeply cared about her loved ones. The fact that she was still married to Bruce all these years despite his accident was strong proof. Chris assumed that Kate developed such a materialistic character because of her earnest desire to ensure the well-being of her family, and Eva was the most conce

    At this moment, Eva wasn't sure if her mother’s opinion were honest or she had become so enamored by the car that she was willing to say anything to keep it. However, she couldn't be more grateful to her mother for saving from being stuck. As she had absolutely no clue of how she was going to explain how she bought the car to her parents. Chris quickly thought of an idea to change the conversation. He opened the car door and gestured for Bruce to get in. “Dad, come have a look, the interior design of the cra is very sleek and really comfortable.” He was trying to coax his father in law. but he was suddenly shoved aside by Kate . “Get lost, Chris. You’d better remember that this car has nothing to do with you. Without our permission, you’d better not touch this car! Look at your hands. They’re clearly to clean and cook. Do you think they’re worthy of touching this luxury car?” Kate said with absolute disdain as she really loved the car and looked upon Chris ' hands as though they h

    “Where have you been all day, Chris?” Kate’s voice rang through the house. “Do you even know what time it is? You think that you can. Just come and go as you please” Chris’s voice was calm, composed. “I had things to take care of, Mother.” “Oh, so you disappear for days, come back whenever you please, and don’t even think to explain?” “I’m sorry, Mother. I didn’t mean to worry you.” Kate scoffed. “Do you even care about this family? About Eva?” Eva clenched her fists. Why did Mom always have to bring me into everything? Chris remained patient. “I do care, Mother. But I had no choice. I had something important to handle.” Kate exhaled sharply. “You better not bring trouble to this house, Christopher.” Chris didn’t respond. He quietly climbed the stairs. Then came the sound of footsteps. Eva barely had time to react before she noticed Chris making his way up the stairs. Her heart pounded. Would he come to her room? Would he apologize? But instead, he walked straight past her

    The golden hue of the setting sun bathed the Cross Corporation building in a soft glow as employees exited the towering glass structure in waves. Eva Carter stepped through the revolving doors, her heart pounding with quiet anticipation. Her gaze instinctively swept across the bustling street, searching for the familiar sleek black car that Chris always parked near the curb. But he wasn’t there. She frowned, gripping the strap of her handbag tightly. Maybe he’s running late. It wouldn’t be the first time Chris had kept her waiting due to work, but he always showed up. Always. Minutes ticked by. First five. Then ten. The occasional rush of a car passing by barely distracted her from the growing tightness in her chest. She took a deep breath, pushing away the creeping unease that threatened to settle. He’ll come. He has to. But when thirty minutes passed with no sign of him, the bitter taste of disappointment curled on her tongue. She felt like a fool standing there, waiting. No ca

    Dexter was also equally confused, he was now sweating in fear but he still tried to regain control. “Mr. Landon, I assure you, this is just a misunderstanding—” Before he could finish, Felix turned and slapped him across the face. The entire room froze. Dexter stumbled, eyes wide in shock. “S-Sir?” Felix’s gaze was ice-cold. “You don’t touch people under my protection.” Dexter’s lips trembled. He had underestimated the weight of Chris’s connections. Chris leaned back in his chair, watching with amusement. “How dare you?....How dare you disrespect Mr.chris?....I’m going to see to it that you no longer have the liberty to conduct any more business in Brooklyn by the time I'm through with you.” Dexter was confused and could only drop to his knees instantly and bow his head in shame as he wondered how Chris was connected to the Landon family. “I'm sorry sir….I'm really sorry sir. I wasn't aware that Mr. Chris was a friend to the Landon family. I would not have acted disrespectfu

    Dexter’s grin faltered for the first time. His eyes darted to his hidden dealer, who subtly signaled that his hand wasn’t as strong as he thought. For the first time, uncertainty flickered in Dexter’s expression. But his pride wouldn’t let him back down. “All in,” he snarled. The dealer flipped the final two cards—King of Spades and a Nine of Spades. Chris had hit a Royal Flush—the highest possible hand. The room erupted into murmurs. Dexter’s face turned pale as he realized he had walked right into a trap. Chris leaned back, crossing his arms. “Looks like I win.” Dexter’s hands clenched into fists. “You… you cheated.” Chris tilted his head. “Cheating? You would know all about that, wouldn’t you?” Ethan chuckled. “Boss, looks like the casino manager isn’t used to losing.” Dexter slammed his fists onto the table. “I won’t let this slide.” Chris’s eyes darkened. “A deal is a deal. You don’t want to go back on your word now, do you?” Dexter ground his teeth. He did expect t

    To be honest, Chris had recognized Dexter the moment they locked eyes with one another. However, he acted otherwise hoping that the situation would become less complicated. “You damn bastard!....I told you we were going to meet again but who would have thought that you would actually dare to come into the casino all by yourself.” “You are getting yourself in this issue just like you did last time we met.” “What do you expect? I can't just stand by and watch your injustice.” “Fine. If you want to do that You want to pay off her debt? Let’s make it fun.” Dexter’s grin widened. “I have seen your fighting skills and I admit that you are good but let's find out if that applies to something else. I suggest a round of poker if you are confident in your skills.” Chris’s gaze didn’t waver. “I don’t play games I can’t win.” “What are the odds of the game?” Let’s make this interesting. Since we both have something at stake, let’s raise the buy-in.” Chris raised an eyebrow. “How much?”

    Moments later, Emma was led into the VIP section. At the far end of the lounge, seated in an opulent leather chair, was Dexter. The casino manager was a bald, heavyset man dressed in a perfectly tailored suit. A cigar smoldered between his fingers, and a smug smirk played on his lips as he regarded Emma. “Well, well,” Dexter drawled, taking a slow drag from his cigar. “If it isn’t the dutiful daughter.” Emma stepped forward, pulling out the envelope of cash. “I’m here to pay my father’s debt. This should cover everything.” With a surprised expression on his face, Dexter leaned forward slightly, taking the envelope with feigned interest. He flipped through the bills before exhaling a dramatic sigh. “This is cute,” he said, tossing the money onto the table carelessly. “But it’s not enough.” Emma’s stomach dropped. “What? That’s the full amount he owed!” Dexter shrugged. “I don’t know what my account manager told you but I presume you are smart enough to do the maths yourself. Th

    Inside the lobby, the atmosphere was refined—polished marble floors reflected the golden glow of ornate chandeliers, and well-dressed guests moved about with an air of sophistication. Chris quickly spotted the woman from earlier—Emma. She was engaged in a heated exchange with the receptionist at the front desk. Her posture was tense, her hands clenched into fists at her sides. Chris approached quietly, his commanding presence drawing immediate attention. “Is there a problem here?” His voice was steady but firm, cutting through the tension like a blade. Emma turned abruptly at the sound of his voice. The moment their eyes met, recognition dawned on her face. “You….” She stated in surprise. “What are you doing here, Mr….?” “Chris….My name is Chris.” Chris gave her a slight nod. “We meet again.” A few weeks ago, Emma’s father had been struck by a car—an unfortunate incident involving Matt Turner, Eva’s cousin. Chris had been the one to rush the old man to the hospital and cover a

    Chris let out a slow breath, controlling the simmering anger beneath his exterior. He had expected Sean to be a problem—an arrogant fool with no self-awareness—but Edward? Attempting to take Eva by force was an entirely different matter. That was an offense that would not go unanswered. He leaned back in his chair, running a hand over his jaw before speaking again. “How did Eva handle it?” Elliot hesitated briefly before responding. “Miss Carter maintained her composure, sir. She did not allow the incident to affect her publicly. However, based on what I gathered from Miss Amanda, she barely slept last night.” Chris’s fingers stilled. He had been halfway across the world while Eva was dealing with this. And yet, when he returned, she had treated him with cold disdain. “Speaking of Eva,” Chris murmured, eyes narrowing slightly. “She was furious with me this morning. I don’t understand why.” Elliot remained silent for a moment before carefully choosing his words. “Mr. Chairman, Mis

    Meanwhile, Chris watched in silence as Eva’s car disappeared down the driveway, her frustration still palpable even from a distance. He stood there for a moment, hands in his pockets, frowning slightly as he replayed their brief interaction in his mind. She had barely looked at him. Hadn’t even given him a chance to explain himself. He sighed, running a hand through his hair before pulling out his phone and dialing a number. It barely rang twice before Ethan’s voice came through the receiver. "Boss?" "Come pick me up at the mansion. We're heading to Pegasus Enterprise," Chris said briskly. Ethan didn’t question it. "On my way." Chris ended the call and turned back toward the house, stepping inside to grab a black coat from the hallway rack. Bruce was in the dining room, silently sipping his coffee while reading the morning paper. The older man barely spared Chris a glance, though there was the faintest glint of amusement in his eyes. Chris ignored it. He wasn’t in the mood for
