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
Being ignored, Jake sat there hearing the conversation of the two women next to him. His anger was at its peak. He had already suspected more of Blake and Tabitha’s relationship, but it was only speculation. The more they continued their conversation about Blake, the more unsettled his heart became. He had to turn things around and become the new CEO of the business and the new heir of the family.When the family finished the ceremony, Robert stood next to Blake and motioned to Jenkins to allow a few people to enter the room. The double doors were opened, and five people walked in and knelt before Blake. The first man was the duly elected President of the United States, George Cluney. The second was the Prime Minister of England, Mrs. Gloria Howtzer. The third person was the King of Africa, Obera Mucha. The fourth was the leader of the United Nations, Robert Downing. Finally, the last one was Sam Wheaton, COO of Elon Trust Enterprises. Gasps were heard throughout the room as everyone
Tabitha thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. Like Blake said earlier, it was up to her mother if she believed her or not.“I was invited to the coronation of the Elon family of the Capital by Blake’s family. They just got a new family heir and head. All of the side families had to attend...,” said Tabitha.“My God, are you telling the truth? Did you see the heir? What’s he like? Is he single? Did he take a liking to you?” Julie continually asked Tabitha.“Mom, what’s with all the questions? I was with Blake the whole time and his family.”“Dam, that bastard is always causing trouble. If it wasn’t for Blake, you could have caught the eye of the head of the family. Now wouldn’t that be great, my daughter as the head wife of the Elon family of the Capital?” Julie was beside herself with this thought.“Mom, why must you belittle brother like that? If it weren’t for his family, I wouldn’t have been able to attend.” Tabitha was upset over what her mother had said about Blake.
Blake and Michael were on their way to the Ministry of the Church when the revelation that Consuela was with the children was heading there to meet with him.“Damn, I forgot about the children,” Blake muttered to himself.Feeling that they could take care of themselves, he didn’t share Claire’s worry and knew of Consuela’s strength.“Michael, when we get there, watch over the children as well,” Blake said.Michael looked at Blake in the back of the car with surprise.“Your children will be there as well?” Michael asked.He had little time to know the children and didn’t know their powers.“This will be a training lesson for them,” Blake replied and left it like that.‘A training lesson? Who sends their children into a battle as a training lesson?’ Michael thought to himself.Not long after, they arrived at their destination and parked alongside Consuela, who was waiting outside the car with the children inside, anxiously wanting to help. Blake exited the car and met with Consuela.“Yo
When the rest of the children left, only Blake was in his seat, and Miss. Price was behind her desk looking at the work they had submitted for the day. Blake patiently waited while Miss. Price looked over some of the work, then placed the papers down and looked at the youth in front of her sternly.“Blake, Elon.” Miss. Price said rather coldly.“Yes. Miss. Price?” Blake asked.“It’s come to my attention that you are to commence in a fight after school?”“No, Miss. Price.” Blake replied, making her eye twitch that he would lie in front of her so blatantly.“Are you lying? It’s been traveling in the school that Jerold has challenged you behind the gym. Are you denying this?” Miss. Price asked.“No. Miss Price. It’s as it’s been said. Jerold does want to fight behind the gym.” Blake said.“Then why lie and tell me no when I asked you.” Miss Price asked, flustered over the conversation.“I replied to your question about whether I was going to fight. I replied no because I had no intention
Gloria frowned and was about to move to help Blake with her wind powers.“Stop! What are you doing? We are in school.” Blake stopped Gloria.“What? I wanted to help you dust off.” Gloria said, pouting her displeasure at him stopping her.“Not in school. We can’t show our powers so easily. Jerold is already calling us freaks.” Blake said, looking sternly at her.“Hey, what’s the hold-up? I’m hungry.” A voice came behind them, and a young boy with brown hair and almost the same features as Blake arrived, along with another girl with long black hair.“That’s all you ever think of is food, Kyle,” Gloria said. “Blake was bullied again.”“Isn’t that the third time this week?” Lacey asked with a soft voice.“Fourth, if you include what he did in class by tripping Blake when he went to do the math problem,” Olivia stated.“Come on, let’s go and eat,” Blake said as he led the four others into the school cafeteria line.While they were waiting, Olivia inched her way closer to Blake. “Are you co
“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
