"But she's a girl!"
Chen spat, he looked desperate. Every vein appeared on his face, making it obvious that he was angry. He couldn't accept that someone would take his position.
"Chen that is sexist, Kim is a smart woman and she is worthy of the position of Clan Leader. You know that the first leader of our Clan is a woman, the first woman to create the battle suit,
our Clan was led by Matriarchy."
Mark was offended by what his son said and shook his head in defeat. With this, Mark is confident that Chen would never change. Their Clan was built by a woman and Mark respects that history. If not because of his ancestor, he would never be a billionaire and one of the leaders of the world. He acknowledged the Matriarch's hard work and promised that he would keep their Clan strong.
"Kim is weak! All she knows is to stay in that small business of hers and keep fixing broken machines! She can't handle the pressure of being a Clan Leader! But I, I can handle it!"
He thumped his chest.
Young Master Chen was doing his best to act strong, he had to convince his father so that he won't abandon him. His eyes were filled with determination, however, what he heard was a chuckle. Mark laughed and found his conviction funny.
"Chen you don't get it. You don't really get it, after what you did. You sold our company shares to the Robinson, and you tried to kidnap their Princess. Don't you know the consequences of your choices? Do you know that the Robinson are preparing for a battle, it's lucky that I persuaded General Bronal, or else you are already dead. And because of your decision, the Robinson can affect our business now. I bet they will try to convince the directors to get me out of my position as the CEO."
He said and there was deep frustration in his tone. Chen's mistake affected him and damaged him a great deal. Mark don't like inconsistency, and right now, his son caused his position as a CEO to crumble. Of course, he was angry.
"Father, I can fix this. Just give me one chance."
"Nah, you have two chances to kidnap Scarlett Robinson but you fail twice. It's already proof of your incompetence."
He tapped something on his table and stared at Chen for the last time. He didn't have any emotions for his son.
"You said that your sister is always playing in her small business and kept fixing broken machines, but that exactly is the reason why she created the flying car that you are using right now. To be honest, she is much better than you. You have enough resources and I even gave you great tutors to help you further decipher your Term Attribute, but instead of listening to them, you even raped one of them! I have to cover that problem, sigh, you are a problem."
He facepalmed.
"Father, I am your son!"
Chen's voice cracked, he was clenching his fists.
"And you are a disgrace."
Mark said like a savage. He tapped his table and decided to finish the conversation.
"That's it, I don't have any intention of talking to you anymore."
"Father!! I swear, if you abandoned me I will find a way to make you suffer too! I will stand again and I will find you!!"
Young Master Chen screamed as his eyes were bloodshot, his saliva spat out of his mouth like a crazy ogre. He was furious and he won't hesitate to murder a person right now, he threatened Mark Cudgel and would get revenge. However, instead of being intimidated, CEO Mark just chuckled at treated it like a joke.
"Who said that I will let you live?"
He grinned like a devil and cut off the signal. The screen turned off and Young Master Chen was left alone, his face was pale as if he lost all his blood. He realized that he was in greater danger. He started checking the system because his intuition was telling him that he was going to die. But he was too late.
Slash!!!
A fast gust of wind blade sliced his flying car into two! The gravity started doing its job and the car descended. Young Master Chen saw his vision rolling as he fell down the earth. He knew that his death was imminent and he screamed afraid of the afterlife. The sensation of the wind brushing against him would be his last.
"Noooooo!!!!"
He tried to do a last struggle, but he couldn't do anything while in the air. At that moment, he saw his life flashed against his mind and he started regretting everything He was too late to regret it.
His body crashed into the ground together with the debris of the flying car. His blood splattered around as his flesh flattened like a pizza, his death was horrible. Young Master Chen had the potential to become strong, his Upgrade Term Attribute could optimize the ability of a machine but he let go of that possibility when he succumbed to the power of money. That's why always remember, money is the root of all evil.
Athena approached the crashed flying car and looked around just to make sure that her target was dead. Athena Hercul was given a mission by General Bronal to kill Young Master Chen when the right time comes. It was impossible to kill Chen while he was in school so Athena and her team decided to wait for the timing.
However, when they decided to start the mission, General Bronal contacted her and said that they had to watch on the sideline instead. General received a message that Scarlett had strong potential to become stronger after this incident. It seemed like the Oracle talked to the General.
'The Oracle is a person that can see the future, the Oracle's gender is still unknown and nobody knows where he is. It said that he could only talk through dreams. That means that General and the Oracle met in the dreams and talked.'
Her bat rattled as it scraped against the ground. Athena was anguished by letting Scarlett suffer but in the end, it was all for her own good.
