The sales associate’s smile of desperation to sell earlier slowly faltered, replaced with something else that was unreadable. There were so many others, way affordable than she had expected Anthony to choose from. Looking at Anthony, the sales associate smiled faintly, “Sir, are you sure you really want to purchase this? There are less expensive ones you can opt for.” She said, “I'll do the favor of showing them to you one after the other.” Hearing that, Anthony knew she was looking down on him. However, he shook his head, standing firm on his word as he repeated, “No, not opting for another. I want to purchase the NQi GT Pro. How much is it worth?” Seeing how firm Anthony's words were, the sales associate gave a short shrug and swallowed hard. If he insists, then there's no problem. Maybe if he hears the price, he'll have no other option but to opt for an affordable one. The sales associate thought in her mind. With that, she cleared her throat and answered, still sk

Liam smiled and nodded, “Yes. There are still a whole lot of things I need to show you.” He said, “Please, come with me.” Anthony hesitated, still looking around the whole room, before he nodded and followed him. Liam took him around the room and began to show him everything he needed to know. Anthony only nodded and remained silent, taking in everything as Liam explained professionally. When Liam was finally done, Anthony thanked him, “It was a plain explanation, easy to understand. Thanks for your explanation.” Liam beamed, happy he got everything, “It's my pleasure, Mr. Lawrence.” He observed his faint expression and asked, “Would you like to have something for lunch? I'll have it brought to you.” Remembering he said he wanted to purchase his first and new ride today, Anthony shook his head, “Thanks, but I've got something to attend to. Maybe that will be for another day.” Liam felt disappointed when he declined his request, but he nodded, “No problem, sir. Let me

Liam's hand trembled uncontrollably on his phone, finding it difficult to believe Mrs Samantha was actually calling. He glanced at Anthony. Was this young man telling the truth? Astonishment kicked in. Anthony looked at him and gave him a heads-up, urging him to pick up, “Go ahead, it's your boss calling.” He said with a brief smile that vanished almost immediately. Liam nodded, hit the answer button, and pressed the phone to his ear. “What took you so long to pick up?” Samantha's voice came out abruptly. Liam was quick to apologize, his voice slightly shaking, “I'm sorry, ma….” He still occasionally glanced at Anthony. “Hmm…alright. Hope you have seen that young man with you there, that's my son I told you about. He's the heir from now on; make sure to guide him through everything, alright?” “....alright. I'll do absolutely everything within my knowledge and experience to ensure he's perfectly trained.” Liam nodded, reassuring. “I trust you on that. Now, have a nic

Soon, Anthony arrived at the place. Almighty Anthony's Empire! Dipping his hand into his pocket, he paid the driver before stepping out. He froze as he stared at the towering height of the building; his heart skipped nervously. The driver who hadn't driven off after being paid said with concern, “Be careful as you go in, young man. Heard a lot about how people who go in there without a purpose get beaten up.” Then he drove away. Anthony watched him drive off and nodded. Taking in a confident breath to eradicate the nervousness, Anthony approached the large gate and knocked on it. “Who's that?” A voice came out, and the gate was opened, and a gate guard stepped out. His eyes trailed Anthony from his head down to his toes with disgust. “Are you the garbage man my boss told me would be coming in today?” He further asked. Anthony didn't want to start explaining himself to the gate guard, so he nodded, and the gate was opened wide for him. “Make sure you don't lean or touch

“Miss Charlotte, I saw Anthony, your husband, tore this before leaving the compound, and when I had a close look, it was a cheque, so I decided to come show it to you.” One of the clueless maidservants said, bowing her head as she handed the four pieces of paper to Charlotte. Smack! Smack! A tight slap went across her face twice. And her face went downcast, wincing in pain with her hand on the spot. It was Aria who slapped her before Charlotte could even react. “Don't you dare refer to that worthless orphan as my daughter's husband ever again! They're divorced, do you understand?!” The maidservant gave a knee-jerk reaction, “Yes, Ma. I'm sorry.” “Now get lost!” Aria gave her a quick gesture towards the exit door. And she nodded and wanted to hurry away, but Aria called back to her. “Go to his room, gather all his rag belongings, and set them on fire.” The maid-servant then nodded and hurried away with an “Okay, ma.” Aria then sighed annoyedly and looked at Charlott

Just as the call ended, Anthony stared at his phone in disbelief. He didn't know whether to scream or not—a very popular and rich family claiming that he was their son.Who is he to decline when he had always dreamed of this kind of life, but had never imagined it was coming too quickly?As he pondered above everything again and again, he buzzed up and began to ring again; it was the same number. So, he didn't hesitate to pick it up.“Hello, Anthony; I've contacted him, and they are eagerly waiting to have you so the operation can begin,” Samantha said right after the call connected.Anthony was still skeptical. “How am I sure you aren't lying here?” He asked. “Almighty Anthony's Empire is a powerful company, and you know how they can just kick me out if I go there.”“Don't fear anything. Nothing will happen to you; take my word!” Samantha said with so much firmness. However, Anthony shook his head unbeknownst to her, mumbling, “I'm not going. You want them to kill me.” Samantha pre
