Chapter 1
Arthur Grey, you can just say so if you don’t want to go. You don’t have to be so disgusting.” Naomi Downey huffed and grumbled at her misfortune before turning to leave. It was an outing day for the Downey family from San Francisco. Earlier on, Grandpa Albert Downey had said that he was thirsty and had asked Arthur Grey to get him some water. Arthur Grey was her husband. To put it more accurately, he was a son-in-law who had married into the Downey family. Three years ago, the Downey family’s eldest princess—Naomi Downey—had held the wedding of the century in her marriage to Arthur Grey. The wedding had rocked the whole city of San Francisco. The reason was that Arthur Grey was a matrilocal son-in-law and a piece of trash. It was the Downey’s family’s old master, Simon Downey, who had set this marriage up. That meant that nobody else had any say in it. Unfortunately, the very next day after the wedding, Simon Downey departed from this world. As such, Finn Taylor was plagued wit

Albert Downey played with the two pieces of jade in his hands. “Arthur, are you saying that this piece of jade is fake and that yours is the real one?”Arthur nodded. “Yes, Grandpa. Even though Quentin made a jade piece that looks identical to ours, his isn’t made of mutton fat jade, much less it being ‘Abundant Life.’ Quentin was meticulous and even prepared a sandalwood box for it to make it appear more expensive than it truly is.”“However, a fake is a fake. Any expert will be able to determine its authenticity. I’m sure Grandpa will be able to tell as well since you’ve been interested in jade for so many decades.”Quentin had the urge to rush forward to pumme Arthur to death at that moment.?‘Can’t he just shut up and not reveal all of my secrets? It’s only because I didn’t manage to purchase ‘Abundant Life’ that I had to create a replica instead. Although it isn’t made of mutton fat jade, it’s still a good variety of white jade. I even paired it with a sandalwood box.’He had thou

Under Arthur’s encouraging gaze, the Downey family’s disbelieving gazes, and the envious gazes of everyone else present, Yvette Larson hesitantly walked toward the stage.She handed the card over to the host.The host took the card and showed it to everyone. It was clear that the number on the card was indeed ‘520.’“Ah!” A piercing scream of envy resonated through the area, lasting for about a minute.The host waved his hand, gesturing for the audience to calm down. “Hello, may I get your name?”“Hello, I’m Naomi Downey.”“Oh, Ms. Downey. How do you feel about winning the grand prize?”Naomi was dumbfounded. In reality, she hadn’t been the one who had won. Her husband had, but he had given her this opportunity.“Delighted.”“Ms. Downey, this set of prizes looks like a dowry set. Ms. Downey, may I ask if you have a boyfriend?”At the mention of this question, the audience perked up their eyes, waiting to hear the gossip.The Downey family, on the other hand, was disgusted and embarr

San Francisco, in a certain Starbucks.In front of Arthur Grey sat an elegant and well-dressed lady.She sipped on her coffee and smiled. “Christian , I’m really happy that you’re willing to meet me.”Arthur sneered. “Christian? I’m no longer called Christian Grey. My name is now Arthur Grey.”“The good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Larson family from San Francisco, Arthur Grey.”“Do you mean you’ve already forgotten that you were the one who changed my name three years ago? Three years ago, you were the one who personally set up this marriage with the Downey family’s Old Master. You were also the one who sent me to the Downey family. Do you mean you’ve forgotten all about that?”This woman was Emilia Reed, the mother of Arthur. She was also the matriarch of the Grey family, which was the largest family of Atlas Hall.Emilia took another sip of her coffee, seemingly trying to conceal her nervousness. “Arthur—or Christian —this isn’t what’s important. No matter what, you’ll be my son f

Naomi Downey maintained her gaze on her grandfather, refusing to back down. Even she had no idea where she had gotten such courage from. Perhaps, it was the hand that Arthur had placed on her shoulder which had spurred her on.Everyone in the Downey family was stunned by Naomi Downey’s attitude.?‘Has she eaten something wrong today?’How can she speak to her grandpa in this manner?’Everyone thought that Naomi Downey was dead meat and that they were as well.But just then, the Old Master of the Downey family spoke up. “Sure. As long as you manage to secure us a deal, I’ll let you be the person-in-charge.”At that moment, everyone’s jaws dropped.The Hemsworth family was extremely reputable, and there was no way the Downey family could even compare to them. If Naomi Downey were to become the person in charge of the project, she would definitely be on good terms with the Hemsworth family. Then, her position in the Downey family would definitely skyrocket.But when everyone thought

“Just have a try if you want to.” Arthur indifferently opened the door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, even gesturing for his wife to get in.Seeing Arthur’s actions, Naomi was utterly shocked. “What are you doing? Didn’t I tell you to keep your hands to yourself?”She shoved Arthur aside, carefully closing the door.Naomi stared at her husband with a gaze full of resentment. “Do you know how much this car costs?”“I just want you to sit in it. Sitting in it won’t spoil it.”“Heh. Arthur , I didn’t know that you were such a romantic person. I would probably have thought that this was romantic if this was your car. Unfortunately, your actions are downright disgusting to me.”At this moment, someone who looked like a security officer walked over.Naomi’s heart thumped frantically. She thought that they had been found out because Arthur had meddled with someone’s car.If this matter blew up, she would definitely leave a bad impression on the Hemsworth family. Then, she could forget a

Even after returning home, Arthur remained in a stupor. Although vomiting had already been induced at the hospital, the doctor had told them that it was normal for him to remain drunk for a day or two since the alcohol had already entered his bloodstream.Groping his way around, he found his way up to Naomi Downey’s room on the second floor.Naomi had wanted to prevent him from doing so, but her strength was no match for his.Very quickly, Arthur arrived at his wife’s room. He crumpled down on the bed and wouldn’t budge no matter how much Naomi tried to tug at him.Naomi wanted to flare up at him but couldn’t say a thing. After all, he had only gotten into this state because of her.In the end, she chose not to leave and slept on the sofa that night because she was afraid that something would happen to him.The next day, Arthur awoke to see that his wife was still deep in her sleep. As such, he covered her with a blanket.But Naomi was awoken by that.Naomi’s first thought upo

Quentin Downey had been in deep despair but regained his excitement upon hearing Naomi’s words. He slammed the table. “You’re good! You didn’t even go to Starlight Inc., so how can you say that you signed a contract with the Hemsworth family? Don’t tell me that you’re so scared of being punished that you got a fake contract to cheat Grandpa.”Quentin’s words seemed to make everyone come to a sudden realization.‘It was no wonder Yvette even managed to sign a contract when we couldn’t even enter Xander Corporation. It seems like she is indeed cheating Grandpa.’?In an instant, everyone was filled with disdain.However, Naomi couldn’t be bothered to explain herself. She was sure that her grandpa would be able to determine whether the contract was fake.“Grandpa, how are you going to deal with Naomi now that she’s cheated you with a fake contract?”Albert Downey analyzed the contract closely. Then, he retrieved his glasses from his pocket and took an even closer look at it.In the e

Every word that Quentin Downey spoke was a piercing attack. Every word and sentence was meant to show his grandpa one thing: that handing the company over to Naomi would cause the Downey Corporation to become the Grey Corporation in no time.Then, all of the Downey family members would be fired from the company by Naomi because of his orders.Joseph Larson considered the situation carefully and was alarmed.He glanced at his grandson.?‘There are no outstanding talents amongst the Downey family’s second generation. That is why I had said that I would simply pass over the second generation and choose my successor from the third generation. From the way things are, Quentin Downey is the most brilliant one in his generation.’“Grandpa, I have no intention of fighting for power or profit. I’m doing everything for the sake of the Downey family.” Quentin was just shy of raising up his hand to swear to God about it.However, Albert Downey merely sneered. “You don’t have to put on an act

“The year I turned six, I was chased out by my mother to live with the servants. From then on, I’ve been trying to build my own power. The world’s top assassin, Yamin Amil, is just the tip of the iceberg.” Arthur narrated the matter indifferently. It was as though he was talking about a trivial matter.On the other hand, chills ran down the four guardians’ spines.‘The world’s top assassin, Yamin Amil, is just the tip of the iceberg.’‘He has been building up his own power since the age of six. Moreover, he has tolerated everything all these years to let the five families and Atlas Hall think that he was no better than a useless matrilocal son-in-law.’‘How can one question his endurance and patience?’‘He had been only six. The Second Young Master is extraordinarily childish even now, let alone at six years old.’‘There is no comparing him and Second Young Master.’If they were to follow the Second Young Master, what awaited them was certain death.The four guardians could no
