Gabriel’s eyes widened in disbelief. “So, this is just one of our cars?”

“Yes, of course. Gabriel, it seems I have to remind you again that you are the heir of The Dragon Lord Group. You should be used to the luxury and wealth you have.”

After traveling for 30 minutes, they had arrived at an elite area. The car continued to drive until it arrived in front of a mansion that was located a little far from the other housing complexes. Gabriel looked out the window and saw the guard opening the tall gate for them.

The car drove into the mansion area. Stopping, the driver got out and opened the car door for them.

Gabriel looked around in amazement. This was the first time he had seen a house this big and grand in person.

"Welcome to our house, my son!" Herbert exclaimed while putting his arm around Gabriel's shoulder.

They stepped into the house. This mansion has three floors, a sophisticated elevator, and two beautiful luxurious staircases. Carrying the theme of a noble castle, it was dominated by white, gold, and various pastel colors. Ornaments in the form of flowers, clouds, and abstracts decorate the ceiling of the mansion.

Taking the elevator and arriving at the 2nd floor, Gabriel was surprised by a photo displayed in a large frame on the hallway wall. He approached the photo and observed it in surprise.

It could be seen that the young man wearing a suit in the photo has a face that is very similar to Gabriel's.

"As I said Gabriel, you look very much like your late grandfather. This is a photo of your grandfather," Herbert said.

Still amazed, Gabriel looked at his father. “Wow, I didn’t expect that I look so much like my grandfather.”

They continued their steps toward a room that was still on the same floor. Herbert opened the room and revealed a place that looked like a private office.

Gabriel stepped in and sat on the sofa. Meanwhile, Herbert was seen busy taking some documents from his desk.

He approached Gabriel with several stacks of documents and a photo album. Gabriel frowned, curious about the things his father brought.

“What are all these, Dad?”

“I want to show you everything about our company, The Dragon Lord Group, and a photo album of our family.” Then Herbert showed Gabriel one by one the documents to read.

Gabriel read the important documents and tried to understand them. After Herbert finished explaining the company and their wealth, now he turned to a photo album of their family.

On the front page, there was a wedding photo of a couple. “My son, this is your father and mother’s wedding photo. This is your mother, Isabella. She was very beautiful, wasn’t she?” Herbert’s eyes filled with tears as he stared at the photo of his late wife.

Gabriel’s reaction was no less touching. His tears fell as he stared at the photo of his late mother. “My mother was so beautiful. I wish I could see her if only she were still here,” he hoped.

Gabriel opened the photo album and his eyebrows furrowed as he saw a torn page. “Dad, why is this page torn? Is the photo gone?”

Herbert’s initially sad expression turned stern. He touched the album and opened a new page instead of staying on the damaged page.

“Something I want to emphasize to you, I want you to keep your real identity! I don’t want your safety to be compromised,” Herbert ordered firmly.

Gabriel nodded in understanding. He could see that his father was hiding something, but he felt that now was not the right time to ask about it.

“So, can I still use the surname ‘Bruhn’?” Gabriel asked.

Herbert was silent for a moment, then he nodded. “Yes, Gabriel. I think that surname will make you safer. Until the specified time limit, I want you to keep your identity and only reveal it to people who have an interest in us,” he advised.

After spending more than 2 hours in the room, Herbert now took his son to the ground floor, where the vehicle parking lot was located. Arriving at the area, they were greeted by several servants on duty.

Stepping into the parking lot, Gabriel's jaw dropped seeing dozens of cars there. There were about 40. 

"Dad, why do you have so many cars?" he asked excitedly. He walked around the place while touching the cars in awe.

"I have an interest in vehicles, especially luxury cars, so I decided to buy all of these," he replied casually. 

Various cars with fantastic prices such as the Bugatti La Voiture Noire, Bugatti Chiron Profilee, Bentley Bacalar, and many others were lined up there. 

Gabriel approached the Bugatti La Voiture Noire and touched it with slightly shaking hands. "This is so cool. Alexis' car is nothing compared to this," he muttered.

Satisfied after walking around the mansion, Gabriel was escorted to his room by the servant. He actually wanted to go back to the dormitory tonight, but his father asked him to stay there.

Arriving in front of his room, he saw the butler waiting for him. Richard bowed his body to Gabriel.

“Good evening, young master. I came here to give you this according to your father’s instructions. This is a cellphone, a sim card, and a bank card with a balance of 5 million dollars.” conveyed him as he handed a new phone and a bank card.

Gabriel accepted it with surprise. Stammered, he spoke. “Five million dollars? Thank you, Richard.”

“Alright, young master. I’ll take my leave after this. If you need my help, you could call me or ring the bell in your room. The butler’s contact information is on the nightstand, you could check it yourself,” explained Richard in a respectful tone. 

Gabriel nodded in satisfaction. “Of course, Richard. You can go. Good evening.”

“Good evening, young master.”

With that, Gabriel entered his room. He immediately opened his new cellphone and a SIM card that Richard had bought.

After the phone was active, Gabriel did not waste his time and immediately activated his email, hoping that his friends' numbers would be restored. But unfortunately, it turned out that he had not saved their numbers in his email.

Gabriel sighed heavily. "Oh my god, why am I so dumb? Now I can't contact them. But at least I will meet them tomorrow."

    With no reason to delay the party announcing the Ashton family's secret heir, the Ashton family began sending out invitations. The event was set to be broadcast live on national television, but the guest list was exclusive—reserved for the affluent, famous figures, and those with ties to The Dragon Lord Group, rather than open to the public. Even so, the number of invitees was substantial, totaling in the hundreds.Gabriel hurried toward his dormitory room, carrying a large bag. A smile played on his face, and he felt a surge of excitement as he imagined his two best friends' reactions upon receiving invitations from the Ashton family.He opened the door to find his two friends lying on their respective beds, with a phone above their faces."Surprise!

    Herbert’s jaw dropped when he heard Gabriel mention the name "Ralph". Seeing his father’s shocked expression, Gabriel inquired,"Dad, do you know this man? Unfortunately, I have no idea his full name," he said.Herbert nodded in confirmation. His eyes filled with disappointment and frustration as the faces of Peter and Ralph flashed through his mind.Peter had always sided with Ralph; he had never stood by Herbert.When Peter gave him the doll that had belonged to the late Isabella, Herbert had thought Peter had changed—since the man was showing him care—but it turned out to be nothing more than part of a vile scheme."That man is Ralph Aartsen. We were good friends back then, until he turned against me because your mom, Isabella Wright, chose me over him. Ralph never held a special place in her heart, yet he loved her deeply. Isabella chose me, and we loved each other," Herbert recalled the past, a complex mix of emotions playing across his face.He let out a heavy sigh before contin
