"This is the DNA test report for both you and me. Take a look!" Darius pointed to a document on the table and said to Maximus.
Maximus was startled, feeling that this situation was incredibly strange.
He had only accepted the system a few hours ago, so how did this Darius already have his test results?
Could the system have intervened in this? It was hard to believe!
Thinking about it, Maximus felt that everything was too unbelievable.
"Yes!" Maximus replied and picked up the DNA test results to examine them.
"Is this really true? Are we actually blood-related? Am I your grandson?" Maximus asked, surprised after reviewing the results, looking at Darius.
Darius, lying on the hospital bed, smiled. "Ha ha... This is no joking matter! I don't want my Tiki Group to fall into the hands of someone unrelated to me. You are my kidnapped grandson, Maximus Robert!"
Maximus was still in shock.
Darius noticed Maximus's expression and wasn't surprised. After all, anyone would be like this. Suddenly discovering that they had a family and, moreover, inherited a multi-billion-dollar corporation.
Once Maximus calmed down a bit, Darius spoke again.
"I don't have much time left to live. The future of the corporation will depend on you!" Darius revealed a hint of weariness.
"Currently, the company is facing some problems, and many people have objections to you becoming the chairman. However, it doesn't matter because you will inherit 70% of the company's shares! Therefore, in the company, you have the power to decide on all matters!"
Pausing for a moment, Darius continued, "But I am worried that you might lose your way. There are many ambitious individuals within the company, so I'm concerned that they might deceive you. That's why I have been preparing for this for over a decade. Do you know Kaytlyn? She is obedient. I saved and raised her so that she can help you manage the corporation in the future."
"Kaytlyn? But can we trust her?" Maximus asked in return.
"What if she refuses to work for you?" Darius didn't answer but instead asked a counter-question.
"In that case... she will become my enemy. I won't forgive those who betray me; I will punish them!" Maximus replied firmly.
After Darius passed away, all of his assets would transfer to Maximus. That meant he would inherit everything from the old man, making it his own personal fortune. No one would be able to touch it!
Upon hearing Maximus's words, Darius's eyes lit up, as if he could see his own youthful self from years ago.
"Hahaha... Well done! You are indeed my grandson, Maximus. All the assets are for you, do whatever you want. Trust no one but yourself. That's how you have survived and managed the TiKi corporation so well!"
Darius laughed heartily, pleased with Maximus' response.
The old man knew it was unfair to Kaytlyn, but is this world really fair?
Darius took in Kaytlyn, provided her with education, nurtured her for over a decade, without worrying about money, and gave her a wealthy life. It is the dream of many others. Isn't that enough?
If Kaytlyn is still greedy, then Darius won't stop Maximus from doing anything to her.
This is Darius' character. Both he and Maximus are alike in not forgiving those who betray them.
After talking with Maximus, Darius immediately called Kaytlyn to have a conversation. It is unknown how long they talked, but when they came out, Kaytlyn had a somewhat unhappy expression. However, Maximus didn't pay much attention. As long as Kaytlyn doesn't offend him, he won't make things difficult for her.
Confirming that he is indeed Darius' true grandson and the sole heir of the TiKi conglomerate, Maximus felt confident. He lived more comfortably in the mansion. Darius' health was deteriorating, and Maximus deeply regretted that the system couldn't cure him.
"Just as I gained a family, I have to part ways again!" Maximus looked at his deceased grandfather, feeling a sense of melancholy and fatigue.
Darius' funeral lasted for three days, and the number of visitors was limited. Only those familiar with Darius were allowed to pay their respects.
During this time, Maximus also came into contact with influential people, including some figures in the city government of Los Angeles.
...
A month passed, and the funeral of Darius was concluded.
Maximus was in a large mansion with many servants and renowned chefs. They would take care of Maximus' life here. Among them, there were two beautiful maids, Charlotte and Sophia.
"What will we have today, Charlotte?"
"Yes, sir. Today, the chef will prepare Foie Gras, Caviar and Truffle, Lobster Thermidor."
Charlotte reported.
Maximus looked at the delicious and expensive dishes prepared by the top chef and sighed. In this month, he finally experienced the feeling of being wealthy. He could indulge in expensive food, expensive wine, and sleep in luxurious rooms. Maximus' life had entered a different class, making him endlessly happy.
After finishing the meal, Maximus suddenly thought of the director who had expelled him from the company, which dampened his mood.
"Now it's time to seek revenge on that person and make him regret it!"
With this in mind, Maximus returned to his room, dressed in a luxurious suit, wearing a specially designed expensive Cartier watch, with a unique and exquisite design. He put on a pair of shoes from a famous brand, and then Maximus drove a BMW 3 Series to VinOPEN company. This time, he was different. He had become the owner of the TiKi conglomerate, including its subsidiaries under the name VinOPEN, all under his management.
As Maximus entered the VinOPEN company, a security guard approached to stop him.
"This is VinOPEN company, who are you? You can't enter without an employee card."
Maximus smiled, took off his sunglasses, and said, "Security guard, it's me, Maximus. Have you forgotten already?"
"Oh! Maximus. Aren't you the one who was fired?" The security guard spoke with a skeptical tone.
"Yes! I was fired! This time, I'm here to settle everything," Maximus said with a laugh.
He then took out his phone, made a call, and handed it to the security guard.
"The Chairman? You're the Chairman!" The security guard exclaimed, his mouth agape, seemingly unable to believe it.
Maximus laughed and walked into the company, receiving the guard's respectful gestures.
Entering the company, Maximus felt as usual, with some people working and others engaging in leisure activities, none of which concerned him. But now things were different. This company belonged to him, and he needed it to make money, not to support a bunch of partygoers. When people saw Maximus enter, they were taken aback, but soon they began to gossip. "Ha ha, isn't that Maximus? He got fired and now he's back at the company." "He deserved to be fired. Who told him to cause trouble with the management? He nearly even fought the assistant director. Now he got fired, lost his job, and it's too late for regrets." "That's really pitiful!" Thinking of this, everyone immediately felt sorry for Maximus and also reminded each other not to cause trouble with superiors, or they would be fired too. "What's all the commotion? Don't you know it's working hours?" A loud shout came from inside the room, followed by a man coming out. This man was in his thirties, dressed in expensive clothe
Those who had once been good friends with Maximus now regretted it. Perhaps if they had been willing to speak up for Maximus earlier, he would have cherished their friendship. But who would have thought that an ordinary employee like Maximus could be the chairman of the TiKi conglomerate? Who would believe this to be true? However, when the director himself came down here to confirm it, Maximus's identity must be correct. Thinking about this, everyone began to marvel at life, for who doesn't like wealthy individuals? Maximus used to be just an ordinary employee in the company, and now he was suddenly revealed to be of such high status. It was truly hard to believe! Although no one wanted to believe it, they all knew that this was indeed true. Maximus looked at the expressions of everyone and silently laughed in his heart. These people had only been concerned with themselves and had never truly regarded him as a friend. Thinking about this, Maximus felt a bit sad. He lowered his head
The more Maximus thought, the more afraid and resentful he became towards Louis. He picked up the phone and called his friend at the police, saying, "Adam, I need your help. Yes, that's right, it's him. I'm counting on you to handle everything." After finishing his task assigned to Henry, Maximus quickly called in another deputy director. "Go! Let everyone know that this year the company wants to achieve results and make money. Those who perform well will receive triple their salary as a bonus. And at the end of the year, whoever has the worst performance will be fired! Issue the announcement!" He waved his hand, dismissing the deputy director, and only then did Henry feel relieved. "It's easy for the chairman to scold like that." ... Meanwhile, as Maximus left the VinOPEN company, the system immediately echoed in his mind: [Becoming a wealthy owner may have made you forget the feeling of poverty in the past. The system is issuing a task.] [1. Experience a one-hour subway ride
Maximus's shout was loud, and all the passengers in the subway stood up, while Jennifer hurriedly checked her handbag. "Oh no! My phone is gone." "Where is my wallet?" "I've lost both my phone and wallet." ... Many people exclaimed as they discovered their belongings were missing. "It's him, he's the thief!" At this moment, many people realized their belongings were missing, and their anger erupted. All hesitation vanished, and recalling what had just happened, Maximus immediately pointed at the group of people accused of theft. In an instant, a group of strong men swiftly ran over and pinned down the thugs. One of the thugs with blonde hair reached for a knife to resist, but Maximus quickly kicked him to the ground, followed by the others attacking the blonde thug. "Oh no! We made a mistake!" The terrified thugs pleaded and begged for forgiveness from everyone. The passengers on the train finally spared them, but they were tied up and awaited the police at the next station.
After the joyful experience, Maximus continued to spin the wheel two more times, but both times he only received purple gift boxes. "It seems like my luck isn't great. I wonder if the purple boxes contain any useful skills?" Thinking about this, he immediately commanded the system to open the gift boxes, and the system's sound echoed again: "Congratulations to the owner for receiving a one-year supply of 100% pure Fami milk and a ticket to watch a Doraemon movie." Maximus shook his head. Both of these items were useless to him, but upon reflection, he could accumulate them and donate them to orphanages for children's care. "Completed the mission on the train for one hour. The owner receives 10 experience points." The mechanical sound of the system rang out, but this time Maximus didn't spin again and saved it for later. He could accumulate 10 spins, equivalent to 100 points, to continuously spin for 10 rounds. As an experienced gamer, Maximus believed that this way, the probabili
"Is this OZZ company of yours a subsidiary of the TiKi Group?" Maximus suddenly asked. He had seen the name of the real estate company OZZ in the documents Kaytlyn showed him. So when Bonnie mentioned it, Maximus thought of that, but he wasn't sure whether to ask her. "Yes, that's right! Is this not common knowledge? Why are you asking about this? What does it have to do with the story I shared with you?" Bonnie replied, slightly confused. "What a coincidence! I work at the TiKi Group, and I know a high-level executive in the company. I helped him when he had a heart attack and took him to the hospital. Let me handle this for you!" Maximus sincerely said. This statement surprised Bonnie, and she wondered what he was thinking: "When did you start working at the TiKi Group? Weren't you still working at VinOPEN last month?" "I've only been working at the TiKi Group for a little over a month, thanks to the help of that executive," Maximus casually made up a reason for Bonnie. Knowing
At the OZZ company, there is an office labeled "Sales Director." Inside the office, Ethan Davis is handling the tasks for the sales department. This month, only Bonnie has met the targets, while others have fallen far behind, making Ethan Davis desire Bonnie even more due to her beauty. However, Bonnie has rejected his advances multiple times. "Bonnie, I know people in the company are pressuring you. Huh, I don't believe you won't come to me to talk. There hasn't been a woman that Ethan Davis couldn't win over!" Ethan Davis imagines a future where Bonnie admires him, bringing him great joy. Suddenly, his mobile phone on the desk rings, causing Ethan Davis to furrow his brows. He picks up the phone to check the caller. Seeing the caller ID note displaying "CEO Ella" Ethan Davis startles and immediately answers the call. Ethan Davis is afraid of Ella. Ella is strict in her work, and she has criticized over two-thirds of the employees in the company. Ethan Davis is no exception, as
"Hey, where are you now?" Bonnie's voice came through the phone. "What's up? Is there something wrong, Bonnie?" Maximus pretended not to know. "Did you talk to your boss about me? I, I have been appointed as the Business Director of OZZ Company." "Ha ha, congratulations!" Maximus laughed and replied. "I knew it was you! I still can't believe I've become the Business Director of OZZ Company! Do you know that just over two hours ago, my colleagues who used to speak ill of me have changed their attitude? The area manager even served me tea and praised me a lot, making me feel a bit embarrassed." Pausing for a moment, Bonnie continued, "Furthermore, I got promoted. From today onward, I am the Business Director of Downtown Los Angeles. Ethan Davis, the former director, has been demoted to deputy director, and he has to follow my arrangements!" "That's fantastic! You're amazing, Maximus! I never thought I could achieve such an accomplishment so easily! It's all thanks to you, so I w
