"Oh, alright," Leona said as she sat down and picked up the pen to sign the contract.

Just as she was about to sign it, she suddenly stopped and looked at Ernie suspiciously.

"Did Matthias send you?"

Leona was not foolish; only Matthias could orchestrate something like this.

The thought made her a bit angry, as she did not want to rely on Matthias' influence; she wanted to achieve success on her own.

"Matthias? Who is Matthias?" Ernie asked, genuinely confused.

Victor had not mentioned anyone by that name.

However, Ernie was quick on his feet and replied with a smile, "Ms. Whitney, I don't know anyone named Matthias. I'm here to sign the contract not because of you but because Blair's behavior was so awful that I wanted to deal with someone else.

"As a shareholder of Wealthtrack, signing this contract is like moving my money from one account to another.

"Just sign the contract. I have other matters to attend to."

Ernie sat back in his chair with a haughty expression, though h

    Blair spent the entire day anxiously awaiting disciplinary action from the company.Yet, as the day dragged on, nothing happened.It was as if the morning's events had never occurred, leaving Blair utterly bewildered.As the workday drew close, Matthias waited patiently beside the car he had bought for Leona.The car was covered in black cloth, and he was excited to surprise her.Matthias' eyes lit up when he saw Leona emerge from the building, her face glowing with joy."Matt, let's not take the bus today! I just closed a major deal and earned a huge commission. Let's take a cab home!" Leona called out excitedly as she approached.Matthias smiled, pleased to see Leona so happy.He planned to reward Alpha later for doing a great job!Matthias was about to reveal the surprise when a mocking voice suddenly sounded."Taking a cab? Leona, what have you been doing these past three years? Why are you still so broke?"It was Blair.Blair had assumed Leona must have some powerful b

    "Leona, while you've been doing nothing for the past three years, I've been pushing forward. I'm way ahead of you now!"Blair's tone was laced with disdain, and she felt a surge of satisfaction as she finally avenged the humiliation she felt earlier.Leona bit her lip, obviously affected by Blair's words.She had not been doing nothing for the past three years. In fact, she had worked harder than anyone else, never taking a single day off and juggling multiple part-time jobs!All because she had to hide from the Whitney family while supporting Danielle.Even though it made her life demanding, it was also fulfilling."Honey, is this your colleague? How do you work with someone who has such a foul mouth? It's unbearable!" Matthias chimed in.He put his arm around Leona's shoulder, his gaze coldly fixed on Blair.Blair's expression darkened immediately.She glared at Matthias with contempt and retorted, "Shut up! Who do you think you are to talk to me like that? You're just a nob

    When Matthias and Leona returned home, their relationship was no longer distant and formal.Instead, Leona often showed a softer side, and their bond gradually returned to its former warmth.When Danielle saw the car Matthias had given Leona, she felt jealous.She pouted and refused to smile at Matthias."Daddy, you're being unfair! Mommy got a gift for going to work, but why didn't I get anything for going to school?" Danielle complained, her eyes starting to tear up.She said, "Daddy doesn't love me anymore! Daddy only loves Mommy! Nobody loves me!"Leona gave a helpless smile.She wanted to comfort Danielle, but the little girl turned away, ignoring her.Matthias chuckled as he took out a small jewelry box.Danielle was just about to cry when a glimmer of light caught her eye."How could I forget about you, Dani? I promised you stars from the sky, but stars are too far away, so I spent days getting them just for you!"Matthias held a necklace adorned with tiny stars, each

    A month had passed since Leona started her job, and thanks to Ernie's deal, Blair could not openly trouble Leona anymore.However, Blair still abused her manager's power to make Leona run errands and handle various insignificant tasks.Throughout the month, Leona was burdened with mundane chores in the sales department.Her colleagues also took turns ordering her around, whether fetching packages or taking out the trash.Despite that, Leona held no complaints.The tasks, though tiring in Blair's eyes, were a far cry from the part-time jobs Leona had taken over the past three years.Alpha would also report to Matthias about Leona's situation daily.A few times, Matthias almost retaliated against those mistreating her, even contemplating severe punishment for them and their families.However, he restrained himself as he knew that if he acted out, Leona would not feel grateful but resentful.Their relationship had finally improved, and he did not want to jeopardize it."Remember

    Blair was secretly overjoyed.While Leona was entitled to the commission, Blair and Joseph took that money for themselves.After all, they believed Leona was just a nobody, and that was a great chance to make Leona pay for offending Blair!Besides, Joseph also wanted to use that opportunity to put pressure on Leona.Even though Blair was reluctant, she could not stop it.Nonetheless, the thought of keeping the commission that Leona earned pleased Blair."I—" Leona opened her mouth, her face filled with frustration and hurt."Know your place!" Blair mocked and left.Leona stood there, stunned, struggling to process what had just happened.She had expected to earn 150,000 dollars in commission that month, only to have it taken away.The sense of loss was overwhelming, and no matter how positive she tried to be, it was hard to accept.As her colleagues left for the day, each one passed by Leona with smug expressions.They envied her for achieving 15 million dollars in sales, s

    Leona's expression remained unchanged as she fixed her gaze on Joseph, her fists clenched tightly."I'm from the Griffin family of Havenwood. You might not know what that means, but let me put it this way—the Wealthtrack Financial Corporation, which seems so powerful to you, is nothing compared to the Griffin family," Joseph said, looking at Leona with disdain.Leona's eyes flickered with a hint of confusion, but she was clearly taken aback.The Griffin family was also one of the top families in Havenwood."Mr. Griffin, since you're from the Griffin family, 150,000 dollars should be a drop in the bucket for you. Why make things difficult for a mere employee like me?" Leona took a deep breath, her face marked with resentment.Joseph laughed. "Of course, 150,000 dollars is nothing to me. Sometimes, my expenses in a single night exceed that amount."Then, he stared at Leona, his gaze intense."Why am I making things difficult for you? Don't you understand?"Leona's eyes widened wi

    Joseph looked arrogantly at Leona, convinced her ignorance of the Griffin family's power led her to make such naive statements."Mr. Griffin, aren't you worried that the Griffin family might face the same fate as the Stoermer family?" Leona asked.She had retreated to the door but found it would not budge. Her anxiety grew."The Stoermer family? What are you talking about?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, confused.In truth, he was just a distant relative of the Griffin family and was unaware that the Stoermer family had already been eliminated.Seeing Leona's attempts to open the door, Joseph's smile widened.He taunted her. "Leona, you're not getting away. I have people outside keeping watch; you can't open the door."Tonight, you'll stay here with me just like Blair has done so. She was quite cooperative back then. I wonder if you're as skilled as she is."Joseph could not hold back any longer and lunged toward Leona.She screamed in fright and scrambled to avoid him."There's n

    In his office, Joseph slowly approached the unconscious Leona.His two men stood guard, smirking as they anticipated him to finish quickly so they could enjoy Leona themselves.Joseph had done that many times before, and they had benefited handsomely from associating with him.Suddenly, footsteps echoed down the corridor.Before they could react, a figure swiftly approached.One of them shouted, "Who's there? Are you looking for trouble? Mr. Griffin has important business tonight. If you don't want to die, get lost!"Just as he said that, his eyes widened in shock.The intruder had reached him and had him by the throat!Matthias tightened his grip and kicked the other guy.Within seconds, both of Joseph's men were lifeless.Matthias kicked the door open with force.Joseph had just reached Leona and was about to strip her when the door was kicked open, causing him to freeze in terror."Damn it! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Don't you know I have important business t

    Clearly, Matthias did not hold back as Roland's body flew far, blood spewing from his mouth even before he hit the ground.His action shocked the Lowell family members, their faces filled with fear. Pierre was the first to kneel, followed quickly by the others."I came here today to ask if you regret your actions and to destroy you, not to negotiate," Matthias stated coldly. "Any chance of reconciliation between the Lowell family and me vanished the moment you drove my parents to their deaths."I said I'd destroy the Lowell family and that East Mountain would become my parents' grave. What? Is the word of the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable so meaningless to nobodies like you?"Pierre and the others turned pale, finally realizing Matthias truly intended to destroy them."No! The Lowell family has a history that spans thousands of years. It can't end with me! I admit I was foolish back then. I'm willing to pay any price to make amends!" Pierre pleaded."Please calm down.

    On East Mountain, all the guests invited to the Lowell family's gathering stood frozen, their faces blank with shock and disbelief.Ten minutes earlier, they had been confident of the Lowell family's victory, treating the confrontation with Matthias as a mere game. However, the tables had turned—the mountain echoed with the sounds of battle, and the Lowell family's pride, the seemingly invincible Crimson Titans, were being slaughtered by Matthias' forces.Furthermore, Frederick had taken his own life. Pierre, who had always been above everything, thinking he controlled everything, was on his knees, begging Matthias for mercy.That sudden turn of events left them all stunned and trembling in fear. Those quick to flatter the Lowell family and rebuke Matthias wished they could go back in time and slap themselves.Matthias was the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable, the most feared organization in the international warzone. Everyone finally realized that their actions, including t

    "I'll make East Mountain the foundation and the lives of all Lowell family members the grave. You betrayed my parents and my friend. I'll make you atone for your sins for generations to come!"Legion of the Unbreakable! Where are you?" Matthias called out.When Matthias finished speaking, countless powerful and terrifying auras suddenly erupted across East Mountain. The sky seemed to darken, heavy clouds gathering ominously.A group suddenly appeared to the east of the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors. Five figures at the forefront unleashed terrifying auras, charging into the center of the Crimson Titans' formation with unstoppable momentum."We're Lambda, Upsilon, Delta, Eta, and Pi of the Legion of the Unbreakable. We stood by Lord Matthias to destroy our enemies!"To the west, another five figures appeared; behind them, ten more. In other directions, more people emerged."Chi, here with Lord Matthias to annihilate our foes!""Nu, obeying Lord Matthias to eradicate our enemies! T

    Just as Frederick's hand was about to strike Wyatt's head, a figure suddenly appeared before him, moving so fast that it caught Frederick off guard. Before he knew it, a sharp pain shot through his chest.Frederick was shocked to find himself flying backward. Not only that, but Matthias was the one who struck him. He could not believe it, his mind buzzing from the surprise and confusion.As Frederick's body slammed hard into the ground, he coughed up blood, his eyes wide with disbelief. It seemed he had been severely injured by just a single kick from Matthias.A deathly silence fell over the crowd, and everyone was stunned by what they had just witnessed. They could not believe their eyes—the leader of the Crimson Titans, a top-tier warrior, had been sent flying by Matthias' kick.Even the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors were momentarily stunned, unable to comprehend how a single kick from Matthias defeated Frederick."I told you I came here to destroy all of you. Did you not take m

    Wyatt's eyes were red, his heart heavy with the guilt of a decision that had haunted him for a lifetime."So, the Alistair who died back then was actually my son, Dexter. The real Alistair is Matthias, this man standing before you now! He's the true heir to the Lowell family! I, Wyatt Armstrong, swear on my life that everything I've said is the truth!" Wyatt shouted, his face pleading as he looked toward the assembled family heads.For a moment, the crowd fell silent. Finally, they understood why Matthias claimed to be Alistair.Among the crowd, some family members' eyes flickered with sympathy. They knew Wyatt was telling the truth, but they could not acknowledge it because doing so would mean offending the Lowell family."How ridiculous! What a joke!" Pierre suddenly burst into laughter, then fixed his gaze on Wyatt, his eyes filled with rage."You're nothing but a lowly servant. I never thought you'd betray us and side with outsiders against the Lowell family! You ungrateful do

    Matthias moved past Alpha and approached Frederick.His gaze swept over Pierre and the others as he continued speaking, "Since the city's most prominent families are gathered here today, I simply want to recount past events in front of everyone."I didn't expect that as soon as I opened my mouth, you'd all jump to silence me. Are you afraid that the truth will tarnish your reputation?""How dare you! Absolute nonsense!" Pierre suddenly lashed out, his face dark with anger.He glared at Matthias and spoke with added emphasis, "You're nothing but a nobody, impersonating a member of the Lowell family, spouting lies and fear mongering. The truth? I've already told the truth about what happened back then. Do you think the heads of these distinguished families will believe the words of a fraud like you?""Exactly. The tragedy that happened to Oswald and his family scarred us. You're a nobody, repeatedly picking at the Lowell family's wounds with your little tricks. Do you really think a

    The Crimson Titans warriors were restless, waiting for Frederick's command to charge en masse, whereas the Lowell family members looked slightly uneasy but still believed they had everything under control.The guests whispered among themselves. They knew Matthias and his subordinates were Supreme-level warriors and were puzzled as to why Frederick, as the leader of the Crimson Titans, could not defeat Matthias' man. In fact, the two men were still standing in place.Suddenly, two figures burst from the crowd—Draco and Gorgon, the other two Supreme-level warriors of the Crimson Titans."Alpha, stand down," Matthias said calmly.Alpha immediately released Frederick but remained in front of Matthias. Though he knew even the three opponents together were no match for Matthias, as a subordinate, he could not allow such insignificant beings to threaten his leader.Unexpectedly, Frederick quickly retreated, stopping Draco and Gorgon from intervening."Matthias, no wonder you're so confi

    The Lowell family members scoffed at Matthias' words. With the Crimson Titans army and three Supreme-level warriors on their side, how could they not be assured of victory?"Matthias, stop your clownish behavior. Bring your people out and face the Crimson Titans' fury!" Pierre taunted, exuding an air of complete control."Game over, Matthias. Today, you'll all die here because of your past foolishness!" Frederick sneered, ready to order an attack at any moment.However, Matthias remained indifferent to Pierre and Frederick's words. Instead, he continued speaking as if to himself."Ten years ago, the previous Lowell family head, Oswald, traveled abroad with his wife and child to check on the Crimson Titans, the family's military unit in the warzone," Matthias said. "Little did he know, he was walking into a trap set for him long before."Matthias turned to Pierre, his eyes filled with hatred and anguish. "I bet you didn't expect that he knew it was a trap, but he went without hesit

    Matthias and his group slowly ascend the mountain. Behind him were Leona, Danielle, Wyat's family, Alpha, and several warriors from the Legion of the Unbreakable.Meanwhile, the Lowell family and their guests were descending hurriedly, their presence intimidating and their numbers overwhelming.When both groups spotted each other, Matthias remained indifferent. After all, every member of the Lowell family was long dead in his eyes.However, the Lowells were seething with anger. Matthias' bold attempt to ascend the mountain was seen as a disgrace to their family—never before had anyone dared to challenge them like that.Frederick led the Crimson Titans and quickened his pace, fearing Matthias might turn tail and flee upon seeing their formidable force. In an instant, the two groups met, with barely 50 meters between them. Then, Frederick raised his hand, and the Crimson Titans halted immediately, demonstrating their strict discipline.Matthias stopped as well, staring at Frederick
