"I think they're already doubting your choice, Brother."Alicia's sharp remark, deliberately stirring things up, drew Larry and Johannes's gazes to her. The two men felt very annoyed and angry, but they didn't dare to express it directly to the girl.Seeing their expressions, trying to hold back their anger, Alicia couldn't stop laughing. She thought they looked like funny clowns."Oh really?" Regis raised an eyebrow. He didn't show any expression.Even though Regis knew his sister was deliberately toying with the school foundation officials, he could use the situation to corner them further."No, Young Master Lorenzo. We would never doubt you," Johannes quickly denied.Lisa nudged her husband's arm. She looked upset because her husband had ruined her plan to humiliate Rayden. However, she couldn't say a word because Regis Lorenzo wasn't someone they could un
"I am very pleased with your incredible enthusiasm. I am sure the dreams you aspire to will come true," Regis said, ending his meeting with the students of Sunrise School.The students immediately applauded, showing their gratitude and appreciation for Regis's words.One by one, they shook Regis's hand after he handed out the certificates symbolizing the scholarships, and then they began to leave the room.Alicia also left. She felt she had seen enough of the interesting show. Mark had to follow her out, worried she might cause more trouble.Regis wanted to follow his sister out of the room, but Larry called out to him."Young Master Lorenzo, we haven't finished our discussion. Didn't you promise to talk about our cooperation after the scholarship ceremony?" Larry asked, reminding Regis.However, Regis gave a wry smile. He looked at Larry sharply and replied,
“I-I’m sorry. I was rude to call you that earlier,” Rayden murmured, looking down.“I know you must be angry because of me. I made you embarrassed in front of everyone,” Rayden continued.He had slipped up earlier. Since their first meeting, he never expected to meet the man who had become his ideal father figure.Because of his spontaneous action earlier, Benjamin’s mother considered him rude. Rayden did regret his behavior, although he was reluctant to admit it.Regis smiled, then gently patted the boy’s head and said, “Who said I was embarrassed? In what way did you see me angry, hm?”Rayden looked up anxiously and asked, “You’re really not mad, Uncle?”Regis’s smile deepened. “No. Why would I be angry? Is calling me that an insult?” he said, making Rayden admire him
“Of course, I wouldn’t mind!” Rayden exclaimed spontaneously. His face brightened immediately.However, a second later, his face turned gloomy again, remembering how angry his mother would be if she knew about his wish.Seeing Rayden’s quickly changing expression, Regis frowned.“What’s wrong? Did I … not meet your expectations?” Regis asked, confused. He had thought the boy would be thrilled by his offer.“It’s not that,” Rayden murmured, his face turning sad again.Regis hoped to win Rayden’s heart to smooth out his plans. Without Rayden knowing, Regis had specific intentions behind organizing the scholarship event in person.For the past few days, Regis had been thinking about meeting Amora. But before meeting her, he wanted to win her son’s heart.No one kn
“Of course, because I’m an incredible superhero! What woman could resist a man like me?”Regis smiled confidently, sounding a bit narcissistic. But he wasn’t exaggerating, as he did indeed possess qualities desired by many women.Unfortunately, Rayden wasn’t too sure his mother would be swayed by such things. Especially since she had told him clearly that she had no intention of marrying again. He laughed at Regis’s narcissistic attitude.“We’ll talk about it later if you really can persuade my mom,” Rayden replied.“Alright then… you’ll be on my side, right?” Regis confirmed.“As long as you don’t hurt or harm my mom, I’ll always be on your side,” Rayden replied with a bright smile.A smile also appeared on Regis’s lips. He clenched his right hand and
"Mrs. Lysander, what happened to you?"Rayden's homeroom teacher, Daisy Miller stared in shock at Amora's appearance as she passed her in the school corridor. Amora was almost entirely soaked.It was raining heavily outside. Daisy guessed that Amora had just braved the rain to get to the school."I got caught in the rain, Miss," Amora quickly replied.She looked around the corridor and didn't see anyone behind Daisy."Miss, where is my son?" Amora asked, confused. She thought Rayden was with the teacher.Daisy frowned. "Rayden hasn't gone home? I thought you picked him up after the scholarship ceremony."Amora realized that Daisy didn't know where Rayden was."I had some errands and got delayed. I ... I thought Ray would wait at school," Amora said, starting to panic."Mrs. Lysander, you didn't at
Rayden's eyes widened in shock. He didn't expect the bald man with a fierce look to throw him!In an instant, Rayden's body flew through the air. He tightly shut his eyes, expecting his body to smash into the ground in his backyard.But all his worries vanished when he landed in someone's arms, none other than Regis Lorenzo.Regis had caught him quickly before Rayden's body hit the rough, rocky ground. His strong arms held the small boy tightly. He didn't care that his expensive suit got dirty from rolling on the ground.His shoulder also struck a large rock, causing a slight tear. Regis grimaced briefly but ignored the pain because there was something more important than a minor bruise."Young Master!"Mark, who had shouted in panic, hurriedly approached Regis.Hearing Mark's shout, Alicia, who initially had no intention of getting out of the car, peeked from behind the car window. She was very shocked to see her brother crouched on the ground.Reflexively, she rushed over to Regis, w
Regis's fists flew quickly, striking precisely at the weak points on his opponents' bodies.He didn't give his three opponents a chance to touch him. Within seconds, the three men who had laughed at him were kneeling, clutching the areas Regis had struck.Regis's lips curled into a sneer. He grabbed one opponent's hair, forcing his face upward.He punched the man's face repeatedly until thick red blood streamed from his nose. The man was left utterly defeated and helpless.Regis then turned his attention to a middle-aged man curled up on the ground, clutching his stomach in pain from Regis's earlier blow."Please forgive me, Sir," the middle-aged man, who had mocked Regis with the bald man earlier, begged.They hadn't expected the man they had underestimated to have such excellent martial arts skills. They never knew Regis held a black belt in taekwondo.
