“You will start living with us after your parent’s funeral.” Mr. Watanabe announced.“But… can’t we stay here?” Mariko asked, but Mr. Watanabe shook his head.“I have a business in Country P. I can’t fly back and forth just to look after you. But don’t worry, kids. I will not sell your properties. And you can visit here anytime you want.” He smiled reassuringly. “You will also transfer schools. You will be transferring to Itsuki’s school.”Hana and Mariko have nothing to do but agreed to his will. He is their guardian now, and their father trusted Mr. Watanabe as they were best of friends. And they treated each other as a real brother.***Back to the present…Mariko came back from her thoughts when she noticed their arrival at her house. She looked up at their Minka (Japanese Traditional House).‘This house… Hana and I used to play here when we were young. It brings me back a lot of memories I had with my parents. This Minka used to be our home. And now, no one lives here.’ She thoug

JapanMariko started visiting the companies owned by her family. They introduced her as the new CEO of the Saito group of companies. Lincoln Webber accompanied her. And what surprised her, was aside from being her business coach, or a business advisor, Lincoln Webber is also the owner of WL foods corporation.WL foods corporation is a manufacturing food company, and it produces thousands of assorted chips and biscuits all over Asia. She also found out that Lincoln was an adopted child of Mr. and Mrs. Luigi Webber. Mr. and Mrs. Webber died. They gave their company to Lincoln and he manage the business well. Now, Lincoln was one of the top ten richest bachelors in Asia.“I never thought that the person who will be my advisor and the ex-boyfriend of my sister Hana is kinda rich.”Lincoln smirked. “I accept the offer after knowing that you are Mariko Saito, the sister of Hana. If it wouldn’t be for you, I would not accept it.” Mariko frowned.“Why?”“Because you are Mariko Saito. I cheris

Althea raised a brow as she saw the journal that Marcus was holding, which she had left in Marcus’ room. She smirked evilly, as she felt satisfied and victorious for what she did. Althea returned to Ethan’s room to keep the other files she took from Ethan’s vault.When she got inside the room, she laughed like a witch victoriously as she remembered how she took the journal and other documents earlier. Before Ethan left, he opened his safe and took some documents from the underground society. After what happened to Marcus, he decided to rebuild his gang again, to protect his only son. Those documents are the lists of his allies in the underground world and his loyal army.“What are you doing?” Althea whispered in his ears, seductively.Her arms traveled to his body, hugging him from the back as she tried to distract him from what he was doing. Ethan could feel his manhood bulge as Althea continued caressing him. His eyes closed and moaned when Althea traveled her hands down to his man

“I need you to help me find that woman!” Ethan commanded.“What’s the matter? What did she take from you?” Austin asked.“She took the lists of my enemies, and the copy of the video taken on the day Marcus got into an accident. “What video?” Austina asked quizzically. He was oblivious to what really happened during that day, as Ethan did not mention anything to him.“It was taken from a CCTV the day Marcus had an accident. The truth is that I hid from you what really happened. Marcus ran into a pregnant woman, causing her to become comatose and eventually die.”“What?! Ethan, why did you hide the truth from us? And why are you telling me this now?” Austin asked. He was surprised that Ethan kept this matter from them.Marcus is also his nephew. Did Ethan think he couldn’t protect his nephew?“Did you help the woman he hit?” Austin asked but he got dumbfounded when Ethan shook his head.“Damn, Ethan. What happened to you?” Austin got disappointed in Ethan. He couldn’t believe Ethan wou

After watching the video, Marcus hurriedly went inside the house. And took a shower. He kept on thinking, why did no one tell him what happened about the incident he got involved in two years ago? And why did he not remember anything that day? After the shower, he fetched his phone from the bed and dialed John’s number.“John, can you pick me up?” he asked, which made John growl.“Don’t you have a car?” John asked. He was a bit irritated that Marcus always asks him when he was younger than John.John is older than Marcus but why does Marcus keep on ordering him? He’s not his butler, his assistant, or his driver to begin with. Why do they have to be like their fathers? Before Ethan kept ordering Austin and now, Marcus was ordering John. Though they were cousins and he was also Marcus’ best friend, that doesn’t mean John is always around whenever Marcus needed him.“I don’t have a chopper, right? And it happens that you knew how to use dad’s private plane. You’re a licensed pilot, remem
