“Outstanding, my dear, but we need you and your team to hurry the proposal. I want the board to look it over by Wednesday morning to be presented to Elon Trust by Friday. Can it be done in this time allowed?”Shocked that the timetable had been brought up, all she could do was grin and reply. “Grandfather, I will give it my all.”“Good, good, by the way, where is your husband? Why isn’t he here? You two not in a lover’s spat now, are you?” George asked, looking at the table with all the available family.Claire didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. How could you have a lover’s spat if you were never in love in the first place?“No, grandfather, Blake had some business to attend to. He left to see his family in the country for the weekend.”“As his wife, you didn’t accompany him to meet his family? How will this look upon us, the Weston family? How can a wife not show filial piety towards her in-laws?” Asked George, who was highly upset over this information.“Father, rest assured, eve
Blake finally found what he was looking for, and it was a velvet jewel case that held his mother’s diamond and ruby neckless. Taking out the box, he handed it to Tabitha, who had a questioning look on her face. Opening the box up, within was a most exquisite-looking neckless made with diamonds in the center surrounded by ruby stones, making it look like it’s made for a queen.Tabitha was in shock over the jewelry, excited and disappointed simultaneously. Blake took the neckless and placed it upon her chest, fastening it behind her neck. He then walked in front of her and admired her look.“It was my mothers. My father gave it to her when I was born, and she always wore it to all the galas they attended.” Blake said, admiring the woman in front of him.“This, this is too much. It was your mother’s, and I can’t wear this. Blake, you must take it back.” Hearing who owned it, Tabitha panicked and tried to take it back off, but Blake stopped her, holding her hand.“Tabby, I believe it was
As the limousine pulled up to the restaurant, the entrance was closed off to the public with brass stands connected with red velvet ropes; a red carpet was rolled out from the main doors towards the curb. The car stopped with the back passenger side in front of the carpet. The driver then got out and opened the door for the arrivals. Jake got out first, followed by Blake and finally Tabitha, with the help of Blake extending his hand out with her acceptance. The gathered crowd hadn’t seen such a display in a long time. They were taking photos with their phones as the three started waking in. Awaiting by the door was none other than Douglas Soros.“Mr. Elon, Jake Elon, could I have a moment of your time,” Douglas asked politely with a smile, but it changed to a disdainful look when he saw Blake by his side.“Mr. Soros, what do I have the pleasure?” Jake greeted Douglas.“Let’s not be formal; just call me Douglas, please.”“Okay, what can I do you for, Douglas?”“Mr. Elon, I just wanted
Maria quickly entered the back room, where all the food and drinks were prepared for the banquet. She dropped her tray onto the serving counter and went into the storage area.“Calm down, girl; it’s only trash no matter how you dress her. A bitch is still a bitch.” Maria tried to calm herself down. When she saw Tabitha with the Elons just now and outshined all the women there, Maria had a panic attack.Just then, the door to the storage room opened, and a young guy in a waiter’s outfit walked into the room and walked toward Maria with a sly grin on his face.“Maria, when I agreed for you to attend, I expected you to work the floor; what are you doing here?” The young man asked, putting his hand on her hip.“Dave, behave yourself; we will be enjoying ourselves later tomorrow,” Maria stated as she removed his hands from her waist.“Well, seeing you here and I’m here, I don’t see why I can’t get an appetizer before the main dish.” Dave then placed his hand onto her ass and rubbed his han
“I assure you and mom, I have only treated Tabitha as a sister, and the family has been very respectful towards her.” Said Blake replying to his mother-in-law’s comments. “As it should be, how can a country family compare with ours? You should feel privileged that she even went with you to meet with your country bumkin family.” Declared Claire, back to Blake’s acknowledgment of his sister-in-law. “If there is nothing else, I just wanted to let you know that there was nothing to fear and that we will be heading back tomorrow.” Said Blake trying to end this call earlier.“Well, you go slowly on the road. We will be awaiting Tabby’s return.” Said Claire and hung up the phone, not even giving Blake any respect.Blake then put his phone back into his pocket and headed back to the banquet hall. Seeing the double doors closed and guarded by two bodyguards, he didn’t think much of it as he approached the two men but stopped when one put their hands on Blake’s chest.“Hold, this is a privat
“Nancy Elon, what I just said, you have taken it as a whisper? Did I not say that no one is to blame? If you want compensation for the dress, I shall retrieve another for you myself.” Robert had gotten irritated over the commotion that she was causing.“It’s fine, grandfather, and we’re not going to pursue this matter.” Ralph quickly replied to Robert’s rebuttal over the situation.Seeing that everyone had quieted down again, Robert started walking back to the table with Blake following. The two bodyguards returned to their post and closed the doors. Nancy and Ralph returned to their seats, and the atmosphere returned to normal, waiting for Robert, the head of the Elon family, to start with the coronation.“Family, with great consideration and thought, I have decided to step down from the head of the main family and turn it over to Blake Elon. Jake….” Robert stated to the family but was interrupted when a loud crash was heard from the back of the room.Maria was replenishing water on
Blake looked at the two in front of him and sighed. He could see right through Maria’s intent from the beginning, and he had observed her movements throughout the night when she spilled the pitcher earlier. So he smiled at her and motioned for Tabitha to come by his side.“Miss. Trist, we have met again. If you are truly repentant of your earlier actions, you will apologize to my sister Tabitha. Then we will forget all grievances past and present.” Blake said, looking at Maria.Maria was surprised by Blake’s announcement about Tabitha. When did she become his sister? All she knew was that she was from a lower family than herself and Douglas.“Tabitha is your sister? I thought she was….”“Tabitha is my sister-in-law, so she is now my sister, is there a problem?” asked Blake, interrupting Maria mid-sentence.“No, no, Tabitha and I go way back; we were like sisters ourselves. Tabitha, I deeply regret how I have treated you in the past; I’m truly sorry; I hope you will forgive me and cont
Seeing her not responding to his question and being silent, Blake spoke again.“Tabitha, do you not want to be my adopted sister?”She was finally brought back to her senses with tears of joy.“Brother, it would be my greatest honor to become your adopted sister.”She then hugged him and softly cried onto his shoulder. This scene was beyond everyone’s imagination. Who would have thought this woman would inherit a place in the Elon family? Robert looked on, and tears of joy crossed his face when he saw the two together but had to separate them to continue the ceremony.“Uhm, my dear, the rest of the family needs to continue. Being his sister, would you like to also give your loyalty to him?” Robert had patted Tabitha’s shoulder to stop her hug onto Blake.“What? Oh, I’m sorry I got carried away. I would love to show my loyalty to my big brother.” Tabitha dried her eyes and smiled at everyone.Tabitha also knelt in front of Blake and gave the oath like everyone. A bright energy surge le
“I’ll be staying here as well,” Maia said with a gleam in her eye.“I don’t want you to go and do anything foolish.” Blake Prime said.“Don’t worry. I’ll watch her and the rest of the family well.” Blake three stated.“I’ll be returning to the Small World and increase my cultivation. The Syrum Syndicate has finally stabilized, and I can focus on my training.” Dynasty replied.“I can’t leave and need to tend to the baby, but Nancy, you should go into the Small World at least and continue cultivating,” Koran said, looking at Nancy, who had always stayed by her side.“No need. When you give birth, we will continue.” Nancy replied, looking like it didn’t matter whether she needed to cultivate or not.“I will return to the Small World as well.” Kelly Wheaton proclaimed, not giving a reason.“I’ll be following you then as well. I asked for a few days off from the precinct and said I would bring my level up.” Jill said, placing her arm around the youthful girl beside her.Then, all attention
“I’ll speak to Kilgore on this matter,” Jack said, sighing. This would also damage the family’s reputation. Using the Kilgore family and then kicking them out of the family was a great taboo in the Upper Realm. Who would trust such a family?“Talk, talk, talk, just go and kick his sorry ass to the street; I never liked that man, to begin with.” Roseline’s Grandfather stated this with a harumph to emphasize his discontent. “My Roseline was always too good for him.”Roseline sighed in relief. With her Grandfather here, she was surely going to dissolve her marriage to Robertson Kilgore, and then she would be free to pursue Blake with a clear conscience.“Come. Let Grandpa Harold have a look at you.” Grandpa Harold said with a kind smile at his Granddaughter.“Grandpa,” Roseline said, and she arrived before her Grandfather with a girlish smile.“Good, good. You’ve grown in your cultivation, to middle God Lord, not too shy from the peak if I don’t miss my guess.” Grandpa Harold proclaimed
“What? God Lord? Roseline, how could you be God Lord?” Rosleine’s Mother asked, surprised by this fact.“Not only God Lord but middle level. She is only one level under Robertson. How is this possible?” Roseline’s Father asked with suspicion in his eyes. “ Have you been removing the Origin Stones or Crystals without permission?”“Father, what Daughter to you take me as?” Roseline asked, feeling disappointed in her Father. Instead of praising her for her accomplishments, he accused her of stealing. “ You know I’m a Master Formations Master, I utilized an Origin gathering Formation.”Roseline had thought about how to explain her increase to her parents a long time ago when she witnessed Blake creating his Spirit Qi gathering Formation and was able to utilize it here in the Upper Realm. The Gathering Formation had been lost for generations, and no one could directly cultivate the Origin within the Upper Realm.“Impossible. That Formation has been lost for so long. How could you know of s
Roseline continued on her way to her Father’s estate. She wanted to see him and have an audience to discuss the disbandment of the Kilgore and Haven families. Her Father had dotted on her since she was a child. She felt that her Father would take her side after he listened to what Kilgore was doing with the Heavenly Tribulation Formation and his infidelity so bluntly in front of her.Roseline didn’t have to travel far since their home was joined with the Haven family estate, as it was customary in the Upper Realm for the married children to be allowed to live within the family. Passing many servants, she stopped one and inquired where her Father was. She was informed that he was entertaining guests as he had been doing since he retired from the Heavenly Formation task.Thanking the servant, she quickly went to her Father’s entertainment hall. Entering slowly, for she didn’t know who her Father was entertaining at this time, she looked on at the three people in the room.Her Mother was
Kilgore could only bow to the fading statue and reply.“Yes, Master.”When the flaming statue disappeared altogether, Kilgore was able to relax. His Master was more potent than any person he had encountered as a God all his life.“Roseline. I will break your control of the Formation and retake what is rightfully mine.” Kilgore mainly said to himself through clenched teeth and rushed out of his room to confront his wife.It was soon discovered he couldn’t enter Roseline’s room due to the powerful barrier formation surrounding her room. Even if he tried to break it with all his might, it would only deflect it back to him threefold and could cause him more damage. With a huff, he left the area.“Stay in your room, hiding like the turtle you are,” Kilgore said as he was leaving when an aura not much worse than his came to him, making him turn around in surprise.“Did she break through? How? She hasn’t had any cultivation resources lately and has only recently broken through to the peak Go
She was channeling the white energy and discovered that it had already entered her womb and fertilized one of her eggs.“This is all your fault again,” Claire said, slapping Blake Prime consecutively to vent her frustration.“It’s fine; we will handle it. I love you.” Blake Prime said and kissed her passionately, stopping her from continuously slapping him.Feeling Blake’s kiss, she melted into his embrace and knew she had nothing to fear.“She must have planned for you to be delayed in ascending with Blake,” Maia said, turning her head towards the loving couple.“You want to continue?” Blake three asked Maia, who was still on top of him.“As much as I would love to experience what she had, I’m not into having three men at once. I already received what I wanted.” Maia said, placing her hands over her stomach.The other two then looked at Claire, who was hugging Blake Prime. Don’t even think about it. That was all Roseline’s idea. I only went along for the ride and got more than I barg
The two women were chatting as if their time apart had never occurred. Maia explained to Roseline what had happened when she was poisoned by Sister Terrie and how Blake had saved her from the poison with no antidote.“And now the woman is back with you, thinking she is your daughter? What a mysterious way of resolving a known assassin. Reverting them to the point that they never trained to kill you. Blake is truly amazing.” Roseline commented.“How amazing?” Asked the three Blakes, who sounded like stereo. “This amazing?”“Okay, we need not do that.” All three said at once again, making it sound very awkward.Blake Prime looked at them and told the other two to stop talking within his mind.“Now that is settled,” Blake said, turning to the two astonished women on the bed. “Where were we?”“I believe Roseline wanted three at once?” Maia commented with a giggle.“So she did,” Blake said, and the three men approached her.“Be gentle. It’s my first time with three men.” Roseline said soft
“Well, whatever the outcome, know I will face the challenges,” Blake said, hugging her, then looking at Maia and opening his arms for her to join in.Maia couldn’t wait and went into their arms, and they hugged each other.“Oh, by the way, what happened to your clone?” Maia asked. She had grown fond of him; after all, he was the one who took her first time.“What do I have to do to prove that all of my clones are me as well? I am them and ….”“They are you, I know, I know,” Maia repeated what Blake would say every time he would create his clones and then pointed at the hand protruding from the ground. “Then retrieve that one. It’s giving me the creeps.”Suddenly, the hand vanished, and there was a slight height deformation from the ground in the general area.Suddenly, a cold chill came into him, and he shrugged it off as the power of water was still lingering within the clone he had just absorbed. The high mountain peaks that were defrosted within his divine world were suddenly full
Claire was talking to Roseline when they felt the concussion force travel through them. Both were startled by the force that was felt, but no destruction was seen.“Blake!” They called out simultaneously.“We need to get to Mt. Saint Hellens now,” Claire said, looking around for Michael.Michael was also startled by the power released and departed his room to see what had happened.Maia and the two girls trying to begin their cultivation path were startled by the force they felt and opened their eyes. Luckily, they were not at a junction where it would hinder their cultivation.“What happened? Is it another Earthquake?” Melisa asked, scared over the situation.“No, this was a powerful force that lacked destruction. I never encountered such a force.” Maia said, looking around and spotted Michael heading in their direction.“Michael just arrived and looks just as confused as we are.” Archangel Chamuel commented from their observation room.Soon, many women arrived next to Maia and the g
