"Incredible," Seth whispered, looking back and forth between Caleb and Julian as if they were the most pathetic circus clowns in the world."You called me street trash? Turns out, you two are nothing more than parasites rotting your own house from the inside.""What the hell do you mean, you piece of shit?!" Caleb, still clutching his shin, growled. His face flushed bright red. "I'll kill—"Click. The double doors of the lounge swung wide open. Lucian Travis stood at the threshold with his flawless posture."Gentlemen and Miss Chloe," Lucian's baritone voice cut through the tension in the room.His gaze looked briefly confused—especially when he saw Caleb groaning, clutching his leg, with his hair soaking wet and reeking of alcohol. But the senior lawyer chose to ignore it professionally."Mr. Alistair is waiting for you in the dining room." Lucian then walked over to Chloe, helped her stand up, and guided her gently.Caleb gritted his teeth. He pointed a trembling, furious finger at

The mansion looked even more majestic at night, with massive crystal chandeliers illuminating every hallway. The moment they arrived inside, Seth knelt and adjusted the bowtie around Dustin's neck."Dustin, why don't you go find Grandpa in his study or the dining room? Dad needs to go to the lounge for a moment to meet Uncle Lucian," Seth instructed gently.Dustin nodded obediently and jogged down the red-carpeted hallway.Seth walked casually toward the spacious lounge. However, instead of Lucian, he found three strangers there. Two men in high-end suits and a woman sitting on the carpet, playing all by herself.Seth frowned slightly when he saw the woman. She was playing with expensive wooden chess pieces—tossing them around and making them fight each other like action figures instead of setting them up on the board.The first man—tall with an incredibly arrogant face—turned his head at the sound of Seth's footsteps."Oh, great. A new hire, huh? Quickly fetch me a bottle of brandy f

"Which one?" Seth muttered, his sharp eyes locked onto his laptop screen, continuously scanning the moving rows of numbers and stock charts.He tried to dig into his memories regarding the stock market movements from ten years ago, right around 2014. He needed the perfect vehicle to multiply Max's loan money as quickly as possible.His eyes stopped at one specific name: NovaCloud Inc. Currently, every financial analyst laughed at the tech company, predicting its bankruptcy next month due to fierce competition.But Seth knew the truth. In less than forty-eight hours, NovaCloud would announce an exclusive data-provision contract with the Ministry of Defense. Their stock, which currently looked like absolute garbage, would skyrocket by an astronomical eight hundred percent.Seth remembered how fast the market moved back then. In his past life, he had only been a bystander when the news broke, as his business ventures had absolutely nothing to do with the stock market.For this life, with

The car maneuvered through the bustling traffic down on the street.A pair of cold, unblinking eyes tracked the vehicle's movement from high above until it vanished around the bend. Seth stood behind the tinted glass wall of Lucian's skyscraper office, glaring down at the street like a hawk watching its prey.Seth saw everything—including the disgusting moment Max devoured his wife's lips on the sidewalk just minutes after handing over the forged DNA sample. Yet, Seth hadn't moved an inch or lost his temper.Instead, he casually sipped his Earl Grey tea.On the plush sofa behind him, Dustin slept soundly, completely exhausted from running around the spacious office. Lucian, of course, hadn't minded the child's behavior at all; the top-tier lawyer even let Dustin play with his incredibly expensive golf ball collection."Perfect." A hollow laugh, quiet yet dripping with pure murderous intent, escaped Seth's lips."Forgive my presumption, Mr. Corbyn," Lucian's baritone voice shattered th

Seth took a moment to type out a text message before getting into the car that would take him home from his grandfather's mansion.'Max, what about the document? I still need to sign it. And the necklace. Still in my hand.'The reply came almost instantaneously.'Sure! And you're going to give it to me?''Yeah. It’s not a big deal.''Thanks, Mate. You really are my best friend.'Seth scoffed as he read the words 'best friend'—the blatant hypocrisy made him nauseous. Max's lies were too repulsive to digest."I will become your absolute worst nightmare, Friend," Seth muttered, sliding his phone into his pocket.[Main Mission Update: Major Retaliation Route Initiated...] [Target Locked: Max Wagner] [Potential Reward: 150 Points + 150 EXP.]Seth smiled fiercely. A level up and a massive amount of points awaited him. This would be a magnificent feast.***The scent of butter and maple syrup filled the small kitchen. Seth calmly flipped the last pancake on the pan, occasionally glancing t

The sharp scent of antiseptic stung Seth's nose the moment he stepped into the hospital ward, instantly igniting a surge of pure irritation. The sterile smell forced him to remember ten years of absolute torture—endless hospital visits for fake cancer treatments that only poisoned him. Seth clenched his jaw, burying the dark memories. Ahead of him, Max lay pathetically on the bed. Bandages wrapped his head, and a thick cast encased his right arm. Pathetic indeed, but Seth actually had to try hard not to smile upon seeing him. But of course, it was not enough. The pain Max experienced right now fell completely short compared to the ten years of agony he inflicted on Seth.Leila sat on the chair beside the bed, wringing her hands nervously. She avoided looking at Max directly, attempting to appear distant."I apologize, Max. The incident at the cafe unfolded so fast, I didn't get the chance to help you at all," Seth said. He deliberately put on a fake face of concern."But really, wh
