Unparalleled Supremacy Chapter 51
A short while later, several loud banging sounds on the door were heard making Kate rush out of the kitchen. “Who the hell is that? Why don't you just break the door if you are too impatient to wait for us to open the door.” She screamed as she walked to the door, a few steps from reaching it. The moment she completed her sentence, a louder banger sounded which forced the door open and several men barged into the house. Kate was flustered and she squealed in fear. “Who are you people? How can you just barge into my house without permission? This is trespassing and you all are going to compensate for smashing my door.” She remarked conservatively in a high-pitched voice as she challenged the trespassers in rage. But, She suddenly became quiet when she heard a familiar voice. “Why are you exasperated, aunt Kate? We just followed your advice and realized that it was better to break the door instead of waiting for you to open it? Eric remarked with a wicked smile and he walked in
Unparalleled Supremacy Chapter 52
Slowly, she opened her eyelids again and was utterly taken by surprise by the scene before her eyes. The hand that was about to hit her was stuck mid-air by another arm. Eva instantly got a feeling of deja vu "You..." Ruby muttered, staring at the face of the man who had prevented her from being slapped and was now crushing the bones of the guard that attempted to hit with his tight grip. She was flustered because she hadn't expected this scenario. Yes, it's me. I'm sorry that I'm late.” Chris said apologetically to Eva. He boiled in rage and was extremely furious when he saw the tears that were flowing down her cheek with her eyes shut waiting for the incoming slap that was about to hit her. The fact that Eva was this vulnerable caused his heart to swell with many painful emotions. Everyone was startled when Chris’s figure appeared in the room because he moved so fast that it was too difficult for their eyes to read his movement. Eric was shocked to have his wrist grabbed.

The room fell into silence after Eric and his lackey left, running away like cowards with their tails stuck between their legs. “Are you alright?” Chris asked Eva in a concerned voice. Although It was the first time Eva witnessed Chris display his impressive combat abilities, she was still mesmerized and found it very difficult for her to believe that he was still the same person everyone referred to as the useless matrilocal Son-In-Law. She could only nod her head in disbelief as she was in a state of disbelief “Yes, thank you for helping. However, I think you have gone overboard this time around.”he said, looking at Chris with a complicated gaze. “I was only trying to help.” “Do you realize what you've done?! You shouldn't have hit Eric? Do you think grandfather will let us off easily after we dared to hurt his precious grandson?” Eva demanded in a reprimanding tone. It wasn't an understatement to say that Benjamin Carter greatly valued Eric in spite of how many times he

Meanwhile, Eva was sobbing in despair in her room. A short while later, she wiped her tears and regained her composure after settling her emotions. She came to face the reality of her current situation and reckoned with the fact that now wasn't the time for her to be acting so miserably. Without out the help of the Carter family, it would be difficult for her family to secure a foothold in Brooklyn Although she was aware of the fact that all the Carter ever did to get was exploit and make use of her talent for their own selfish gain while she deserved many times more than the breadcrumbs that was being fed to her. She also hated being bullied but at this point she didn't have the luxury to be skeptical. The cost of Bruce's medication was quite expensive and they were only able to afford it with the help of a portion of her salary and the annual dividend that was paid to Bruce's account as a member of the Carter family which was also used to maintain the household. However, th

It wasn't difficult for Chris to locate the restaurant since Gold Inn restaurant was one of the top five star restaurants in Brooklyn. It was a world renowned restaurant that only the top elite members and individuals of the society could afford to buy meals at. In fact, one would have to make a reservation at least two months prior before visiting the restaurant. However, it only took a minute for Elliot to make a reservation at this restaurant which was proof of the high level of influence the Brown family controlled. Elliot had been waiting in the lobby for Chris’ arrival. He didn't dare to sit before Chris. “Welcome, Mr. White. I have been waiting here for your arrival.” he greeted with a respectful bow as soon as he caught sight of Chris walking into the restaurant. Meanwhile, Chris took a quick glance around the restaurant and was impressed by its exquisite and luxurious designs. "Isn't this place too flashy?” he remarked. “You have nothing to be worried about, sir. Thi

Outside the door of Carter's building, Eva had been kneeling for nearly an hour. It was humiliating as she could feel the stares of many servant Soon, the front door opened and a group of people walked out of the building including Eric, Benjamin and Brian “Why are you here?” Benjamin asked in a cold voice. “I'm here to plead with you to revoke your order, grandfather. Please don't kick us out of the family.” Eva quickly begged, lowering her head before Benjamin. “Shameless! How dare you make such an outrageous demand after your heinous crimes towards the family?” Benjamin hollered, his voice filled with anger. “You have shamed our family and because of you, our family lost ownership of Cross Corporation. Now, people will mock us just like they did years ago when you got married to that useless husband of you." “Grandfather, I swear that it wasn't my intention to smear the family's reputation. Moreover, I really had no idea that such a clause was added to the contract.” Eva s
Unparalleled Supremacy Chapter 57
The next day, the shocking piece of news that the Carter family had lost ownership of Cross Corporation and the company in question now belonged to the Pegasus Enterprise had already spread like wildfire around Brooklyn. It had become the hottest trending topic everyone in the city was talking about, especially the business elites. This was mainly because it was a very rare occurrence that an elite family would lose the right to the ownership of the family's main business that had been passed down from generations to the next generation. Although there were cases of bankruptcy, even that hadn't happened in a long while. The second captivating part of this trending news was that many of the current top employees of Cross Corporation were being laid off, especially those that were members of the Carter family. The fact that the Carter family status has drastically dropped to the league of the fourth tier elite families was certain. Many reporters and journalists were gathered o

Meanwhile, dressed in a simple outfit, Eva was seated on her bed scrolling through her cell phone, searching for job vacancies. It was a weekday and she would usually be buried in a pile of paperwork in her office at this time of the day. Unfortunately, that was no longer going to be the case for an uncertain period of time since she had now become jobless. Apparently, Eva came across the news that Pegasus Enterprise was going to hold an interview session to hire employees for Cross Corporation. It made her heart sink to think that just a day ago that company belonged to her family and she held the position of being one of the company’s project managers. Suddenly, she jolted from being startled by the abrupt sound of her room door being pushed open. “For heaven's sake mom, you could have at least knocked?” Eva complained. “Oh my goodness! What are you wearing? You have a guest waiting for you downstairs so you need to get dressed in much more suitable clothes.” Kate said with

“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
