“Mr. Jed, your father has asked me to bring you home,” Peter announced the reason for his arrival with a harmonious smile.
Jed frowned slightly. Father? That word sounded strange to him. Both in his previous life and this one, he has never had someone to call his father.While he was thinking about this, he heard Peter’s malicious thoughts,‘How is this dirty, fat, ugly-looking creature fit to be my young master? He must have inherited these terrible facial qualities from whichever slut gave birth to him! Even his grades and behaviors are nothing to write home about! None of his teachers had anything good to say about him. A nameless dumbass like him wanting to ride on the Jetti’s coattails. Hmph! Dream on!’Jed looked up with a cold look and Peter quickly adorned his face with a wide amiable smile. Not even in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Jed actually heard what he was thinking.“Okay,” Jed stood up after giving this short but cold response. The butler bade the principal goodbye and hurried after Jed while murmuring quietly at how rude he is.For the first time in both lifetimes, Jed got the opportunity to experience a ride in a luxurious SUV. The way he kept looking round the expensive interior of the car with an astonished look disgusted the butler.Peter felt he must have never experienced such high-class luxury before. He made a mental note to instruct the servants later to sanitize the spot Jed occupied with his cheap clothing. He managed to hide his disgust while the car drove all the way to Jetti's villa.When they led Jed into the magnificent villa, his jaws almost dropped. Every single accessory in that house dripped of wealth. He suddenly paled in comparison to the house, standing there in his faded and patched clothes.As he waited in the hall Mr. Peter had led him too, he pondered in confusion,“If the deceased Jed’s father was this rich, why didn’t his mother own up to her identity before her demise? Being a baby mama of such an affluent man would have caused her to live in wealth till her demise and would have certainly saved Jed from the miserable life he lived.”Before he could get an answer to his questions, sounds of approaching footsteps filled the originally silent hall. He immediately stood to his feet and watched as an unfamiliar man appeared with the butler closely behind him.Jed swept his gaze on the gorgeously dressed man emitting a powerful aura in front of him. He could see some similarities between them.Only that, he was too fat for his age while this man was looking way too young for his age. It’s obviously due to the easy life he has led.Jed caught sight of a faint look on the man’s face before it disappeared as fast as it came. Was that a look of— disgust? He shook his head thinking he must have seen wrong. Why would his father look at him like he was disgusted by his presence? Just then, Vendetta chimed,Name: Alan Jetti.Profession: Prominent Business Mogul.Status: Married to Anna Jetti.Relationship Found: Biological Father To The User.Personality: Not Pure.Jed was confused by the last line. What does Vendetta mean by stating his father’s personality is not pure?“Alas, you are finally here. I’m sorry it took so much time to find you,” Alan’s gentle voice disrupted the thoughts in Jed’s head. “Your mother didn’t inform me about your existence and I was so sad to hear that Selena passed away.”Jed stood quietly. So the name of the mother to the original owner of the body was Selena. He looked at his father who had a remorseful look and couldn’t explain why he felt so uncomfortable at that moment.On normal circumstances, a father and son that has never met each other before would embrace themselves and cry happily upon reunion but Alan didn’t make an effort to move forward and Jed felt it would be too awkward for him to rush forward for a hug considering he shares no feeling for this man.When Alan saw that he didn’t respond, he added, “You aren’t upset with dad, are you?”He was puzzled by Jed’s behavior. Based on the reports that had been given to him, Jed’s personality was that of someone that would have rushed forward to hug him in tears.Why then is this young man standing in front of him with a distant look. Even the butler looked pissed.“It’s alright father. We both didn’t know about each other so we can consider it even,” Alan was surprised to hear Jed speak so calmly as if he was unfazed by the revelation of his identity. Why does this boy seem completely different from the reports he had gotten?According to his men, Jed is a gullible, oversized, dumb boy that could barely keep up with his grades at Elites High. This made him think of Cullen. What a complete contrast.“Don’t worry. Now that I know about you, I won’t let you suffer any grievance anymore,” he has also heard about Jed’s terrible reputation in the school.Such a child was a total disgrace to his dignity! When he finds out who leaked the news of him having an illegitimate child to the public, that person won’t witness another day!Jed’s eyes turned cold hearing all these. Total disgrace to his dignity? An illegitimate child he’d rather hide away? He felt so disappointed on the behalf of the original owner of his body. Even his biological father seemed reluctant to accept him.“I will try my best to compensate for all the grievances you have suffered. I have prepared an apartment for you so you won’t have to live in that dorm anymore. I have also secured an admission for you at a third-grade university so you won’t have to worry about your upcoming exams results.” Judging by Jed’s current grades, he will definitely fail the exam woefully.Jed smiled bitterly, listening to the thoughts of his supposed father.“Here,” Alan stretched out a card.

CH258: Revelation ii
The entire Powell family was left dumbfounded by the unexpected twist. Mr. Harry, the patriarch, spoke up, his voice strained with disbelief, "Selena Morgan? That's my sister." The room fell into a heavy silence, broken only by Mrs. Powell's sharp intake of breath. "What!!!" Her eyes widened with shock and remorse. She had, unknowingly, harbored resentment toward her best friend's child for years. Mrs. Powell, her voice quivering, admitted, "Selena and I were best friends. I never knew... I never realized Estelle was her daughter yet I've unintentionally harbored this hatred towards her all this while." The room buzzed with mixed feelings. Joy and confusion lingering in the air. The family felt heavy with the surprising news, trying to understand the mix of feelings and the complicated connections that had just been revealed. Drake, still grappling with the newfound knowledge that Jed was his biological cousin, couldn't shake the conflicting emotions. As he observed the joyous

"Mmph!"Liana thought he was distracted and leaned in to steal a kiss but at the last minute to her disappointment, his large palm blocked her lips.Jed could feel her pout beneath his palm so he smiled and removed it before pulling her towards him tightly and kissing her till she was out of breath.Her face was as flushed as a beetroot red. He smiled and kissed her swollen lips again before looking down lovingly to tell her,"Don't play around. We'll be at Powell's residence soon and we have to be on our best behavior.""Okay," Liana nodded with an innocent look. "I'll try to remember that."Jed chuckled, shaking his head helplessly. As the car continued the journey, he couldn't help thinking of Vendetta's words.What was it trying to insinuate by stating the members of the Powell's are six instead of five? Could it be experiencing a glitch?"Sir, we are here."After some time, the car came to a stop in front of the magnificent Powell's family residence.Jed got out and led Liana in.

"Dad, I have some important work later which I cannot cancel or postpone so count me out," Drake's face was distraught with annoyance."I can tell you are lying. You are the boss and you can easily handle any work.""Dad," Drake got exasperated. He clutched the handle of his swiveling chair tightly. "What makes you think I'll really go to dinner with Jed? He and I are archenemies."Jack's ears perked up upon hearing that name. What could that little brother of his be up to now?Why would he invite the Powell's to dinner?"Drake," Harry's tone turned stern. "If you don't come home tonight, you know what I can do. Those shares of mine that are still in the company aren't for an act."Drake gritted and clutched the phone tightly. Although he is the CEO of their family business, his father still remains the chairman and the old man possesses a fair amount of shares that could make him wary."I'll be there."Jack's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard this. Drake looked clearly unwilling, w

Powell's HQR"Mr Drake, you have guests," A secretary walked in to inform the CEO who was sitting in front of a computer with a pair of glasses on his face.Drake didn't look up or respond. He only flicked his fingers indicating for the guests to be led in.The secretary nodded and stepped out. When the door reopened, he finally looked up. His eyes glazed with surprise at his august visitors. He stepped away from the computer and dropped his glasses."What a pleasant surprise," He turned to signal to the secretary to bring up refreshments.As he motioned to Jack to have a seat, he stretched out his hand for a handshake."To what do I owe this special visit? Welcome back."Jack smiled, accepted his handshake and looked around the office. "I can see why you are number one. The interior design is topnotch."Drake's face softened with a smile and he shrugged, "Young master Jetti really knows how to joke around a lot. If you want, I can direct the team of designers that di
CH254: Get To Know Each Other
"Mr Powell, don't get grandma so worked up. It's fine if you don't want to talk about whoever you—" Jed led grandma Powell to a bench."My sister. Don't mention her. Anyone that ran away from one's family for years without looking back doesn't deserve to be family.""Harry, don't be so mean," His words made the grandma upset as her eyes dimmed with tears.Jed silently noted whoever Mr Powell's sister was must have been important to the old madam. Why did she run away... Jed didn't think intruding too much would be acceptable but he knew now her running away from home must have hurt Mr Powell so much that he doesn't even want to talk about her."Grandma, I'll be sad if you are sad. I came all the way today just to visit you?"His words made grandma Powell guilty and a smile appeared on her wrinkled face. "Boy, you are such a sweet talker. I want to go for a walk. Come. I'll show you the beautiful flowers I have planted myself in this garden."With this, Jed led the old woman. Hand in

With a smile that lit up his slightly tanned face, he walked to the person awaiting his arrival."Younger brother," He called out. "How long has it been and you are already all grown up. I'm glad you didn't let me down."Cullen accepted these compliments with a smile and informed him, "Elder brother, I have completed all formalities for your release and just like you requested, no news was released to the public."Jack nodded with satisfaction and patted him. Then they walked to a SUV."Where is Finn?"Cullen's gaze darkened. "He is still unable to step out, elder brother. But he is awaiting your arrival."Jack's smile vanished hearing this. "Were you able to see mom? I was unable to meet with her during my lockup. Those bastards... I'll dig their graves one after the other!"Vroom!The chauffeur ignited the vehicle as soo
