Chapter 71: A Dark Ambiance

Alexander led Eden to the restaurant and Eden was shocked when he saw that the establishment was a very expensive one.“Dude, are you sure about this place?” Eden looked at Alexander with slight worry. “I’m not sure if I can afford it.”Alexander smirked at his old friend. “That’s okay; just leave it to me.”It was then that a man approached them. “Oh my goodness! It looks like neither of you guys have aged a day;”Eden and Alexander turned their gazes to find a slightly shorter and pudgy man heading toward them. “Guys, it’s me, Bruce Daniels!”“We know!” Eden and Alexander chuckled as they shook their heads.The three men came together and exchanged hugs and pleasantries.Bruce looked at the restaurant. “Woah, Alexander!

Chapter 73: Proverty Stricken

Alexander waited with a cold face as the waiter left to call the manager. A few seconds later, a man with gray hair showed up.“Sir, this is the pathetic man who threatened me into calling you. I was practically bullied, Sir.” Eden raised an eyebrow. “Well, maybe my friend here wouldn’t have had to insist you call over your manager if you had done what you were supposed to do.” He turned to the manager. “Your waiter was very unprofessional in the way he regarded my friend here. Perhaps, you should consider getting a better hire.”Bruce nodded his head. “I second that. I also witnessed your waiter being utterly rude to my friend.”The manager didn’t look like he was in a good mood as he looked at Alexander, checking out his outfit thoroughly. “Your outfit looks quite legit, but I doubt it’s real.”Fiona laughed. “Of course, it’s not real. How would such a poverty-stricken man like that be able to afford the real deal?”Lesley became curious after hearing this, so she whispered to her

Chapter 74: Innocent Eyes

Alexander turned to Eden with an ominous stare and he smirked at him. “All I can say is that I’m the opposite of everything my in-laws described me as down at the base floor. I’m the opposite of that and more.”“And more,” Eden repeated the last two words with a warm smile at Alexander. “I’m shocked; I’m also beginning to doubt if I truly knew a lot of things about you back when we used to be roommates.” He turned to Bruce who wouldn’t stop eating. “Hey, aren’t you also curious about Alexander?”Bruce looked up from his meal to glance at Eden with innocent eyes.Eden raised an eyebrow. “Or did you actually know the real Alexander this whole time?”Bruce glanced at Alexander before shaking his head furiously.In reality, Eden didn’t know Bruce that well. The man had only lived with them for less than a month. It was after that month that Eden had to leave the country for a while.What Eden didn’t know was that Bruce was actually a subordinate to Alexander and was the big boss of the un

Chapter 76: Act 3; Switched Souls

Jenifer Carlson stared at her image in the cracked bathroom mirror, reflecting on the person she had become. Looking at her reflection, she noticed a weary 28-year-old woman with dark under-eye circles, a stark contrast to her once energetic and animated demeanor. She splashed cold water on her face, trying to rid herself of the haunting memories of her life."Kain," she croaked, her voice rough from sleep deprivation, shouted out, "Are you awake?"Kain Light grunted from another room, saying, "Yes, I'm awake." "What will we be having for breakfast?"Jenifer breathed heavily and entered the compact kitchen. The walls had peeling paint, while the linoleum floor showed stains and signs of wear. She searched through the mostly vacant pantry and discovered a can of beans."Beans once more?" Kain chuckled as he stumbled into the kitchen, his eyes tired and bloodshot after a night of excessive drinking."It's the only thing we got," Jenifer whispered as she opened the can and emptied it int

Chapter 77: Motionless

The day seemed to stretch on forever, with every minute dragging by slowly. Jenifer kept herself busy cleaning the apartment to distract her mind. She cleaned the floors, cleaned the dishes, and organized the mess. Doing anything to distract herself from facing the despair of her circumstances.Later in the afternoon, a knock was heard at the door. Jenifer became motionless, feeling her heart beat rapidly. Who might that be? She carefully cracked open the door, looking out cautiously.Is that you, Jenifer? A familiar voice said, "It's Lisa."Jenifer swiftly widened the door. Lisa,Hey there! Why are you here?Lisa entered the small apartment, glancing around. "I was concerned about your well-being. You appeared very different yesterday, so when you missed your shift today, I realized there was a problem.Jenifer experienced a surge of thankfulness. "Thanks for showing up, but this isn't the place for you." "It's dangerous.""Not safe?" Lisa frowned. "What's going on, Jen? You can tell

Chapter 78: Scrumptious Decor

Jenifer woke up and was instantly surprised by the unfamiliar place around her. The room was lavish, featuring tall ceilings and sumptuous décor. She sat upright, experiencing a peculiar light-headed sensation."Where am I?" she quietly uttered, scanning the area with bewilderment.Her attention was drawn to a mirror on the opposite side of the room. She staggered closer to it and exclaimed. The reflection she saw was not her own. Tall, dark hair, captivating blue eyes, and an unfamiliar face."Oh my God," she whispered. "I am not this."The entrance to the chamber opened, and a maid walked in, holding a tray with breakfast."Miss Isabella, good morning," the maid greeted with a cheerful tone. "After breakfast, your father wishes to meet you in his office."Jenifer's thoughts were racing. Isabella, are you there? Who was Isabella characterized as? She nodded slowly, attempting to restrain her rising panic.She was able to express her gratitude by saying, "Thank you."After the maid de

Chapter 79: Conglomerates

The Romano family siblings gathered around the spacious dining table to share a special breakfast, showcasing their strong familial bond. The room was filled with a comforting heat as sunshine poured in through the high windows."Did you observe the look on Bennett's face yesterday night?" Alexander Romano chuckled, slicing into his eggs. "Priceless."Veronica Romano, sitting to his right, smirked. "He must be fuming. Five years, and we finally got that contract."Lucas Romano, the third-born, glanced up from his phone. "Dad was celebrating pretty hard. Did anyone see how much he drank?"Sophia Romano, the youngest, giggled. "I think he finished more than one bottle of that expensive wine."Alexander's eyes twinkled. "He deserved it. Bennett Conglomerate didn’t stand a chance against us."Veronica leaned forward, her eyes sharp. "We need to capitalize on this victory. The market's going to be watching our every move."Lucas nodded, tapping away on his phone. "I've been working on so

Chapter 80: Tension Rising

The room was abnormally cold, most likely due to the tension filling and encapsulating the atmosphere so much so that one could almost touch it.The two most powerful families in New York, The Bennett Family and The Romano Family, were in the same building and the same room, all at the same time. Such a convergence was, without a doubt, a 'once in a blue moon' occurrence, if ever. Surely, there was never smoke without fire, and beneath this smoke was a brightly burning, dangerously heating, and fast-spreading fire."Let me begin by offering my condolences to you, The Romanos, for the unfortunate and untimely loss of Charles, who, as we all know, was a father, and also a friend."This voice belonged to Johnathan Bennett, the Patriarch of The Bennett family. He is also the CEO of Bennett Conglomerate and the long-time rival of Charles. He was seated clad in a suit and tie, his face was filled with sadness."We all know how important he was to you all. And, frankly, to me, as well… even

Chapter 81: Deadly Alliance

Alexander Romano is a very cold and calculating man, and seeing how the situation has escalated. He knew when to stand down. And so, Alexander ordered his men to put their guns away and take their seats and unwillingly calmed their nerves, because if they'd so much as threatened to fire at Johnathan, they were going to join their father in the afterlife. All of them.Now, old man Johnathan, ever the diplomat, resumed talking."So, here’s the thing. As you all know, both the Romano and the Bennett family have competed for four generations now. Your father and I were best friends, and we had hoped to put an end to that family rivalry but, unfortunately…….”Alexander, although he had lowered his guard, hadn't applied the same action to his voice. "And, why the heck should we care about this? You were such a selfish man. Father told us what all you think about is yourself-""Let me finish, Alexander." Johnathan cut back in, a stern look on his face. Alexander wanted to say more, but, the
