Chapter 21
"Young Master.. Young Master!" "Ugh?" a drawn out groan escaped Jedidiah's lips as his comfortable dreamscape was shattered by the faint noise of someone calling out his name. Rolling against the relaxing sheets of the king sized bed, his eyes lazily fluttered open, embracing the light of the morning sun. However the first person Jedidiah ended up seeing was the Kreese Family Butler; Chuck. And just like the first time they met, he was smartly dressed in a well ironed button shirt underneath an expensive designer suit jacket and pants. "It would appear the Young Master requires the assistance of an alarm clock." Chuck mused, causing Jedidiah to nearly roll his eyes. Unfortunately the early morning fatigue he was suffering from, made doing this a tad bit stressing. "Good morning to you too.." covering his mouth as a strained yawn escaped his lips, Jedidiah sat up right, ruffling the bed sheets in the process. Leaning against the bed rest, another groan escaped his lips as he felt

Sundays.. this was a special day that symbolized a number of things on a global scale. For Christians, this was a day reserved to attend Sunday service. For the Catholics, this was the appointed day they reverently observe the sacrament. However for the esteemed Scions of Upper Central, Sunday mornings was synonymous with sunny brunches where champagne infused OJs and Peachy Bellinis flowed like Noah's Flood, with Tables groaning underneath the crushing weight of a wide spread of scones, carb loads of brownies and towering stacks of golden-brown pancakes! And in the entire city, nobody organized a brunch party better than the Miller Clan!The Grand Regency Hotel.. This building that was synonymous with the city's opulent grandeur, was currently flooded with a throng of frenzied paparazzis and noisy news vans. Occasionally, a procession of sleek black limousine would pull over at the grand entrance of the Hotel's premises and alighting from these vehicles were men and women in el

"So Zach my man, I heard you would be returning to the Academy starting monday?" "Tch. In just exactly that time frame, I would be passing through the gate of New World Institute. Muhaha!' Within the lounge where the Miller Clan's Brunch Party was being held, a series of unsuppressed laughter erupted from a particular table whose surface consisted of a spread of a variety of half eaten delicacies. Huddled around the table were four young men. Not only were they clad in a similar fashion — Elegant Tuxedo ensembles, their heads was also cascaded with silver colored hair. Of all those who were present, Zach appeared to be the youngest. With the corner of his lips curling up, he let out a soft retort in response to the earlier comment. "Well, that's because unlike some third class Magic Academies, only the best of the best actually receive a diploma when they graduate from Shakespeare Academy." clicking his tongue, Zach victoriously leaned back. With his fingers clutched around hi

"Tch. The only reason why you think this way is due to the fact that you lack talent in Cultivation." a scoff suddenly escaped Zach's lips. Harrumphing coldly, he continued with a jeering sneer. "Even if you try compensating for your lack of magic talent through indulging in commerce, the simple truth still remains the same — you'd still still remain beneath prodigies like myself." as if to add salt to injury, Zach reached towards the croissant Collins dropped, taking a huge bite. "Do we have a problem Zach? I thought I could ignore it but you're starting to act like a little b*tch." a displeased expression settled on Collins face as he shot Zach a sharp questioning glare."Hehehe. Didn't you hear? It's all over the Academy's Students Forum!" a sly giggle suddenly sounded as a melodious voice suddenly cut through the air. Collectively tilting their heads over, their gazes settled on the young beauty standing besides their table. Possessing a head full of silver hair styled in

F--Fired?! Misinterpreting Jedidiah's stunned silence as a sign of him being scared, a satisfied smirk appeared across the lips of Serena. That's right, start groveling!"Are you sure you're really feeling okay? You can't fire me. Especially since I don't remember ever working for you." Jedidiah exhaled in a helpless manner, sensing multiple gazes being directed towards their way. Due to the commotion Serena created, the table he was occupying was currently under the spotlight of attention, attracting curious gazes. From the table he was occupying, a satisfactory grin etched across Zach's lips as he savored the impending spectacle that was about to play out. "Miss Serena, is this man bothering you?" arriving besides Serena, the speaker was a middle aged man with brown hair and donned in an ash colored waist coat over a white dress shirt, well ironed grey trousers and a white cravat. Possessing a lean and straight statute, this man was a powerful Ninth Degree Elite, under the serv

Porter's brows knitted tightly in confusion mixed with vigilance. Seeing Chuck standing before him caused him to recall past memories. In the past, the both of them had actually been members of the same Sentry Guild. Protecting each other's backs, they were comrades who walked through seas of blood and mountains of Kaiju Beasts carcasses. - Last time I heard, he entered the service of the Kreese Family? So why is he protecting this journalist? Don't tell me this journalist was actually employed by the Kreese Family?!However, Porter's suspicions never dared wander to the possibility of Jedidiah being the grandson of Lady CeCe. It was both public and insider knowledge that after the abrupt disappearance of the Kreese Family First Miss, Lady CeCe was the only surviving member of the elite family. "Hmph. You sure have gone gutsy Porter, at least compared to the last time we met." Chuck harrumphed coldly, the anger in his tone clearly wasn't sounding forced. He had just gone off to ge

Ignoring the expressions of shock around her, Lady CeCe continued speaking. "Please allow me to introduce my grandson and sole heir.. Jedidiah Kreese!" "Damnit!" from a certain table, a frustrated cuss echoed sharply. "What is it?" Stefan Hayes shot Zach a curious look. Sensing Joshua's piercing gaze as well, Zach clenched his jaws, doing his utmost to maintain his cool. "It's fine." balling his fist underneath the table, Zach's gaze darted towards the direction of a certain someone who had just stood up. A myraid thoughts racing in his head.So the previous night, Jedidiah hadn't been bullshitting when he claimed to be Lady CeCe's grandson! Although Jared's later talented performance caused Zach to grow some suspicions regarding his origins, having his suspicions and receiving confirmation were two different things!- Damnit! Damnit! Damnit!..—[You have trolled Zachary Vanderwaal for +500.. +500.. +500] As soon as Jedidiah rose up on his feet, he instantly became the center

Blaire Archibald was going to be betrothed to Lady CeCe's grandson! Zach wasn't the only one present who had quickly arrived at this conclusion after placing the pieces together. This possibility further fueled a majority of their curiosity. "Matriarch CeCe, now I am really curious. Just who is this grandson of yours?" sporting striking blue eyes blazing with willy craftiness, the speaker was a Chubby man in his early thirties.Lucas Vanderwaal.. Hailing from the branch lineage of the Vanderwaal Family, he was also the Chief Financial Officer of Blue Rose Group, one of the World's top leading Contract Development And Manufacturing Organizations. In the Pharmaceutical Industry, Blue Rose Group held a lot of clout. One would think that since the concept of magic became a reality, the value of the Pharmaceutical Industry would gradually wane before disappearing completely — However it became the exact opposite!Since the age of Human Civilization, the Pharmaceutical Industry had neve

"Unforgivable! Who do you think you are to dare mock the Miller Clan?!" following this sharp retort, all eyes darted towards the source. "Oh? so it's you." with his eyes landing on a certain chubby figure that was familiar to him, an amused smile appeared across Jedidiah's lips. "Why are you acting so aggrieved. It's not like I was referring to you. Your hair isn't silver." —[You have trolled Spencer Trevor for +200.. +200..+200] "Y--You!" Spencer's pupils dilated with rage as the fat on his chubby cheeks, rippled like the surface of a stormy sea. Jedidiah's simple words ended up opening old wounds. The fact that his mother came from a side branch lineage was something that always haunted Spencer whilst growing up. To make matters worse, his father wasn't even affiliated with any top Aristocratic family. If those from main family lineage were regarded as phoenixes and dragons in the Miller Clan, then those from branch family lineage were ranked at the middle level of the social

Noticing the puzzled expression on Spencer's face, Jedidiah exhaled helplessly as he went further to clarify. "Think about it.. even people who do circus shows for a living get paid for their performance. You want me to accept this challenge of yours? there has to be something in it for me.." midway speaking, Jedidiah's lips curved upward. "Hmph. What do you have in mind?" Spencer sneered inwardly. Do you think your pathetic attempt to scare me will do you any good?! "If you win, I'll do anything you tell me to do and I mean literally anything." "And.. And if you win?" for some strange reasons, Spencer felt a feeling of unease bubbling at the pit of his stomach. Strange.. when did Jedidiah become so confident? Was it perhaps possible that he was actually Lady Cece's grandson -- No! Definitely not. He's just a useless wastrel who doesn't amount to anything! There was no way Spencer could accept the possibility that Jedidiah might actually be Lady CeCe's grandson. If that was t
