Chapter 300

Autor: Edelweiss W.S.
"And you idiots! What are you doing, crowding them like that? Go prepare the finest refreshments in town for Mr. Grimwald and his parents!

"And you! Get the money we owe them! They asked for a refund, and they're getting every cent back!"

Jason sidled up to me with a buttery smile. "How's that sound?"

I didn't look at him. "Get on your knees. Apologize."

The office went silent. To everyone's shock, Jason clenched his jaw and knelt. "I'm so sorry, Mr. Grimwald!"

If he had known this man could bring his massive company to the brink of bankruptcy, he never would have tried to cheat his parents.

I gave a slight nod. "Refund. Now."

The thugs stumbled out of the office. When they returned, they acted less like muscle and more like shabby butlers, carrying trays of drinks and inviting my parents to sit.

Then the wife of the elderly couple in the corner spoke up. "No! You can't just give them a refund!"

My mother turned to her. "Why not, Betsy?"

"Because I said so!" Betsy snapped, te

    I dismissed her and turned my attention to Renault. "Are you brain-damaged or what? I divorced this woman. There is nothing between us anymore. Your threat means nothing to me.""What problem do you even have with us?" Renault demanded loudly. "I have never done anything to harm you. I even stopped harassing Julia, just as I promised. Why is it so hard for you to leave my family alone?"Cruel malice gleamed in his eyes.I met his stare. "Think about it this way, Renault. The only reason I am standing here is because I discovered what you really did."Renault ground his teeth. "So that's it? There's no room for negotiation? Pfft. You're a bad boy, Sebastian. But I'm worse. If I have to go to hell, I'm taking you with me."He shoved Hera aside and lunged at me, his dagger flashing in a dazzling blur.My face drained of color. I had no time to retreat.Suddenly, Hera sprinted toward me, shrieking, "No! Stay away from him!"I had never seen her like this. She seized the blade with

    "He's dead?!" Something was not right. I could understand why the Kingsman executives would choose to kill themselves. According to Naomi, the crimes they had committed were so severe that parole from their life sentences would never be an option.The Hill Group, however, was nowhere near that level. At most, Winston would face a ten-year sentence. So why had he killed himself?"Something's rotten. Call Naomi and tell her to find out who's backing Winston. Get the other elites to work with her. Use my family's information brokers and resources.""Understood."Byleth took out her phone and relayed the message.Sazaar was now safe for me. The only personal enemy I had left was the Youngkins. Even so, I could not leave the city yet. I needed to know what had really happened to Winston. Had he been a pawn from the beginning?The Grimwald family's information network was extraordinary. Combined with Naomi's hacking skills, they uncovered the truth within ten minutes."You wouldn't

    I patted her shoulder. "Hey now. Chin up. I still need your help at the mining site. Besides, I still have the Hill Group to deal with. Can I leave Sazaar to you?"Naomi looked startled. "Even the Hill Group?""Yep. My investigation shows that Winston did far more than we first believed. Because of him, people in Sazaar now think Sleeping Giant is nothing more than a predatory corporation. We need the Hill Group out of the picture, once and for all, if we want to keep doing business in this city. We have to expose the Hill Group and clear Sleeping Giant's name."Naomi nodded. "You helped me fulfill one of my greatest desires. Of course I'll repay you. You can leave it to me… if you trust me to handle it."I smiled. "Of course I do."I left half of the Grimwald Group's elites to support Naomi and headed straight for Winston's residence with Byleth.The Hill Group was already under my control. The remaining executives seemed unaware of the things Winston had done behind their backs

    "Sleeping Giant isn't strong enough on its own to do much. But now, with the power of the Grimwald family, I can finally put my desires into action without worry."Anna nodded, even though she did not fully understand Sebastian. She sensed that the man smiling before her carried the aura of a conqueror.…I fetched the wine and invited Anna to join us for dinner."I'm so glad you agreed, Ian. I've already spoken with the executives of the Grimwald Group. As the heir to the family head, you can now command them however you wish. Your ambitions are now our ambitions," Julius said, his tone filled with admiration."I'll handle the trouble in Enbarr for now, until you achieve what you set out to do. After that, you can return in full glory. Let everyone know that my long-lost grandson is not an abandoned child. He is a true titan, now awakened.""You flatter me," I replied, giving his words little thought.At that moment, my focus rested entirely on the Hill Group's betrayal and the

    "Baron has to be one of them, right? What about Byleth? A powerful warrior who just showed up in my life out of nowhere. She has to be one of your people too, doesn't she? And what about everyone else? The bigshots I saved. Did you plan all of that?"Julius looked momentarily startled. "No. Only Baron was my underling."Baron… The man who had helped me fly. Without him, I would never have reached the height I stood at today. So he knew."No wonder he kept trying to protect me even when his life was on the line. He was trying to earn your favor through me," I muttered. "That's a steep price to pay."I tried to process what I had just learned, forcing my thoughts to move faster. What was I supposed to do with this information? How was I supposed to face everyone I now knew?"If that's how you see it, Ian, I can't change your mind. I trust your ability to understand all of this," Julius said with a sigh. "Still, you need to internalize it quickly. More trouble is coming your way, Ian

    Anna grinned with a hint of mystery. "Rather than asking me for an answer… you should ask the old man himself."The old man? What old man?I followed her into a private room at the restaurant. An elderly man sat behind the table, waiting. He wore finely tailored clothes, and a quiet, majestic presence filled the room.He looked familiar. Uncomfortably so. In fact, he looked a bit like me. "Who is this?" I asked.Anna did not answer. She turned to the old man and inclined her head with clear respect. "I've brought him here, Mr. Grimwald.""That you did. Atta girl," the old man said with a grin. He lifted a hand and waved me closer. "My precious Ian, come to your grandpa!""W-What?!" I blurted out. I pointed at myself. "Did you mean… m-me?"Who was this man? Had I heard him right? His last name was Grimwald?A strange sense of familiarity clung to me, one I could not shake. It felt as though I should be close to him, as though that closeness had been taken from me long ago.An
