All Chapters of Heir to Trouble, King of the Game: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Somewhere in the city of Grusoire, Clement Lakeworth was sitting behind the wheel of a Bugatti Veyron Hermes Special Edition with mixed emotions.An hour ago, he'd just been chewed out by Jenny Bronson, his pent-up female manager. After that, he was stuck in the office revising the design draft that had been rejected eight times by the client. It was his fifth day of working overtime.A brilliant idea had just come to mind. Alas, before he could even open up his design application, his mind shut down, and he fell face-first onto the keyboard.When Clement opened his eyes once more, he had transmigrated into the parallel world he was in right now and into the body of a young man who shared the exact same name.All decked out in Hermes, with a Patek Philippe watch around his wrist, he was holding his phone—the latest iPhone model—while sitting in the driver's seat of a Bugatti Veyron. He also had an eight-figure sum in his bank account.After receiving the memories of his new body,

Being an avid reader of novels, Clement knew that nearly every single story set in a city would feature a beautiful cop as one of the female protagonists. If that didn't happen, it only meant she got axed before the story was published."The Chosen One's luck is seriously off the charts. He can walk into a random bar, humiliate me, and end up meeting the female protagonist because of me?"Clement was incredibly jealous of Ethan. With luck like that, anything he did would end up becoming a marvelous opportunity for him."Hello. I'm Violet Shaw, captain of Team 3 of the Chesville district," Violet greeted Clement in a professional tone.Her brows were slightly creased as she eyed Clement with a look of disdain. Being a police captain, she'd had plenty of dealings with hedonistic scions like him, and she knew their type. They liked to throw their weight around, abusing their social standing to bully the commonfolk.Violet deduced that Clement would soon be forcing her to arrest Ethan

"Please don't do this, Mr. Lakeworth," Ruth pleaded as she bit hard on her lip.Despite feeling infuriated on the inside, she dared not avoid Clement's touch.But of course, Clement didn't dare to tease her any further, either. He knew that even though Ethan's luck had gone down a bit, he was still the Chosen One blessed by fate.Being the villain, it was perfectly reasonable for him to tease Ruth. But if he dared to stick his hand down her blouse, he figured the almighty censorship would cause an accident that would result in his hand getting chopped off.Clement wasn't going to test that theory out."All I want is for things to be handled fairly," Clement declared, still clutching Ruth by the jaw. "You can run along and hire a lawyer for him now. I'm leaving."He got into his Bugatti Veyron and drove off."You have gained 1,000 villain points.""Did I just get that many villain points from teasing the female supporting character?" Clement mused.He was enjoying himself. How

Unexpectedly, the caller was Elise Hanover!"How interesting," Clement remarked, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the name on the screen.Elise was the CEO of Celestia Pharmaceuticals and about the same age as him. While her company was slightly less prominent than Lakeworth Group, it had been shooting up the ranks in recent years and was one of the top companies in Grusoire.Clement had only met Elise once before at a networking event for the upper echelons of Grusoire. But at the time, the two were vastly different.Despite sharing similar family backgrounds, Elise was hailed as the most illustrious of the younger generation of elites in Grusoire. Meanwhile, Clement was infamous for his hedonistic lifestyle. Everyone considered him the prodigal son and used him as a cautionary tale."I didn't expect Elise to be the CEO Ethan's working for as a bodyguard. It truly is the typical frosty CEO meets mysterious bodyguard trope."Eyes gleaming, Clement took the call."Hi, Mr. Lakewo

After the meeting ended, Clement felt refreshed, energized, and very pleased with himself.He'd been a bit awkward at the start, but as he got the hang of it, everything came more easily to him. Over the course of the meeting, he was able to not only present himself clearly but also effortlessly and with an air of confidence.By the time the meeting wrapped up, Clement had fully embraced his role as the boss. He had officially become a competent general manager!"Mr. Lakeworth."Renee, who was standing beside Clement, had a spark in her eyes as she stared at him in astonishment. She'd been his secretary for three years now, but somehow, he seemed way more dashing today.Setting down the documents he was holding, Clement waved to the room, signaling the end of the meeting. Then, he turned to Renee with a smile and asked, "What is it?""I-It's nothing," Renee said.She chewed her lip lightly and lowered her flushed face. Just a moment ago, when their eyes met, she'd felt her heart
