When Serin came back, he cried to grandpa butler.
Butler Yul feel distressed and hugged the little baby while wiping the tears and asked, "Why baby feels wrong? Did someone bully the baby? Hurry, Tell grandpa, and grandpa will seek justice for the baby."
"Huhuhu, G-Grandpa am I poor?"
"Nonsense!" Butler Yul is angry, who made the baby feel poor?
"B-But grandpa, Xanric said that people who live in the forest are poor so am I poor?"
Butler Yul is speechless.
Can you call someone who owns private land and erect a palace in the middle a poor one? Isn't the baby the richest baby?
"Grandpa can I just live with Xanric? Xanric said that his family is rich and he can raise me."
Serin thought about it, even if he was bankrupt Xanric still said that he liked him and would still marry him. How good is that? It's Qise's fault for making him bankrupt. Once Qise comes back he will make sure to reprimand him so as not to make him lose money anymore.
He never thought that his system is so stupid that he can't even handle a business.
"Isn't Xanric the baby's future wife?"
Serin nodded and laugh, revealing his tiny teeth.
"Yes Grandpa, Xanric said he would marry me too once we grow up."
Butler Yul is satisfied, but he didn't take it seriously since a child's promise can be easily forgotten. If his little master differentiates as an omega then a powerful and high-ranking alpha is suitable for him but if it's alpha then his little master must marry an omega from a prominent family.
He must live long and witness his little master marry.
That would be his happiest time.
"Also grandpa, the baby's birthday is near can I invite my classmates to celebrate with me? I told them that I would have a birthday and would introduce them to grandpa!"
"And you can meet Xanric too!"
Butler Yul patted Serin's head, "It's little master's day, of course, you can invite everyone. You can tell Qise so he could leave a budget for your birthday party. Grandpa will make sure that you'll be the most lovely little prince in your day!"
Serin squeal.
"I love you so much, grandpa!"
Heart flutters, and Butler Yul widens his smile, "Grandpa loves the baby too."
"Then grandpa calls Qise, I want to talk to Qise!"
——On the other hand...
In the Strauss mansion, Xanric is sad and hardly eats his favorite opera.
His grandpa is not present so he couldn't ask if a person who lives in a forest with a house is poor or not. Aside from that, his worries are also the gift he would give to Serin next time. Serin's birthday is near and he could count it with his fingers.
Feeling troubled, he couldn't help but sulk.
The head butler already saw his low mood and quietly stood far away to call the old patriarch to inform him about Xanric's current state.
While doing that, heavy steps were heard.
A young man wearing a clean white uniform enter the hall but paused when he saw Xanric.
"What are you doing here?!"
Xenon knew that his grandfather is not here so no one would protect Xanric even if he pinch the other party's chubby cheeks.
Xanric saw his brother walking towards him so he shrink himself onto the couch.
"Hmp, cowardly."
Xenon stretches his hand and pinches Xanric's cheeks. It was easy to bully a child and it was fun so whenever he was stressed with school activities and so on, he would deal with this illegitimate child.
"B-Brother it hurts."
Pleasure surges in causing Xenon to pinch both Xanric's cheeks.
"You are an illegitimate child, you must remember that until you grow up so you will know your place in this house, you hear me?"
"B-Brother l-let go, i-it hurts."
Xenon let out a tsk and drag Xanric down the couch.
"You go and get me a glass of cold water."
Xanric purses his lips and didn't move. His grandpa warns him not to enter the kitchen because it's dangerous. That's why if he wanted something he always asked the servants to get it for him because that was what grandpa teaches him.
"You didn't hear me?! Do you want me to repeat it to you?! If I repeat it I'll beat you, do you want?!"
Xanric cried when Xenon kick him.
"Cry! Cry! Is that all you know? You are a Strauss but you're so weak! I won't be surprised if you differentiate as an omega with your squeamishness!"
"Young master!"
The head butler who made the call heard the commotion in the hall so he hurriedly check and saw the little master crying.
"What?! This child is so annoying! I'm just teaching him!"
"Second young master, please don't bully the little master, if the old patriarch found out that you are hurting the little master then you'll be grounded again."
Xenon snorted: "That old man is also annoying, what's so good about this illegitimate son?!"
The head butler sigh.
"Second young master if you want to play with the little master please be gentle and be mindful of your actions."
"Play?! Who wants to play with this bastard?!"
Xenon rubbed his arms when he got sudden goosebumps. Butler Luice actually misunderstands him of wanting to play with his father's illegitimate child?! Nonsense! He's not Xeio who pawn over such a delicate kid that could die in just one strong kick!
Feeling disgusted, he glares at Xanric and walks upstairs.
Butler Luice frowned and hugged the pitiful child whose cheeks are red because of Xenon's pinching.
If the old patriarch came back and saw the redness in little master's cheek then the second master would be scolded again. If the second master is punished then the current patriarch will get mad at Xanric and ignore the old patriarch again.
It's a cycle scenario but the most affected person is the innocent Xanric.
"Little master don't cry. Let's get an ice pack for your cheek okay?"
"Mmm"
Xanric lay his head on Butler Luice's shoulder, still crying aggrievedly.
Science & Technology Academy
In a closed room full of scientific equipment, a handsome man wearing a white lab coat is smiling amusedly while staring at the liquid inside the tube he's holding and shaking.
"Doctor Conrad, it's done."
A young man wearing a glasses and white lab coat lowered his gaze.
"What do you think of that person?"
"It's a talented man, I heard about him once in a news and I admire."
Doctor Conrad grinned: "It's really good."
He also heard about the existence of Qise Dhallian, after all, aside from medicine, it is the technology that could surely dominate the world. Science and technology academy is already researching the universe and the technology that the Dhallian company invented is enough to make scientists go crazy to take possession.
He agreed to meet so he can secure cooperation and also, to see what the rumored Qise Dhallian looks like.
"By the way, I'm halfway done with my experiment."
"Is that the pheromone comforter?"
"Yeah"
Countless children died because they lack pheromone comfort from their parents when differentiation happens. Because of the huge number of death, the government demanded the Nekriel family to research a cure, a counterpart to the pheromone comfort of parents in order to save abandoned children.
Conrad couldn't help but curse at that time.
What is he? a god?
But then, he still complied. After all, the sacrifice of the Nekriel family in the past shouldn't be wasted now. Nekriel's dark history is sickening and whenever he saw his father he couldn't help but hate the evolution that happen.
His father who is a product of unwanted incest is born a fool and weak.
Probably because it's an alpha and omega gene despite incest his father is fortunately born with a complete physical appearance but his health is weaker than that of real alpha and is stupid.
"Doctor Conrad, Doctor Aciel is calling you to his office."
Dad? What is it this time?
——In the high-rise building of the Dhallian group, Qise who is working overtime today receives a call from Grandpa Yul. He thought that something happen so he put aside the document in his hand and answer it but it was his little ancestor.
"Qise did you make me bankrupt?!"
He knew nothing good comes if it was his host.
You actually call just to ask if he made him bankrupt? Qise gritted his teeth and swear to scold his host once he grew up and take his revenge someday.
"Ancestor, why do you think you're bankrupt?"
"Because we're living in a forest! Xanric said that only people who are poor and homeless lives in a forest! Though we have a house in a forest it's still in a forest! I'm so embarrassed in front of my future wife!"
Main system, just why did you seal this villain's memory and lowered his IQ? What unforgivable mistake did he make to be punished of serving an ancestor??
"Host, describe the house where you live."
"Huh?"
Qise massage his forehead, "Host, you live in a huge castle with fifty servants around, you woke up being served, sleep being served, and live being served. Why do you think, just because you live in a forest you are poor? And if you're bankrupt I would never buy a mansion for nothing!"
"T-Then I'm still rich?"
"You'll never be poor in this life." After all the main system gives you so much money that you instantly become the wealthiest person even without establishing a business.
But in order to avoid the eyes of other people while living in this world, you need to build your name and make people know your existence so that you will never be doubted as to where your money is coming from.
"Ohh, I thought I'm poor."
Why do you sound disappointed?
"You know what, my future wife said that it doesn't matter if I'm poor, he can raise me and let me live in his house." a sigh was heard in the other line: "Hey, he loves me so much."
Qise: "..."
Please don't tell, I don't care, thank you.
"Anyways my birthday is near! I want an extravagant birthday party because I will invite my classmate and teacher!"
Oh right, his host will turn five years old this coming month.
"Don't worry, I'll make secretary Ren contact some event manager to decorate the castle."
Serin feels happy and jumps around the couch. Butler Yul has something to do so Rachelle is the one accompanying Serin, listening to the conversation. She could only nod his head in agreement when he heard that her little master want an extravagant birthday party.
It should be, her little master deserved the best!
"Sister Rachelle I want a big cake on my birthday!"
"Of course!"
They have ten days of preparation. Serin wanted to invite all of his classmates and adults will accompany them. Qise is already well known in the business industry and all children in the Madea Kindergarten came from a wealthy family, surely he would be recognized by the adults so he decided to make this birthday party a welcoming party to introduce the heir of the Dhallian group of company.
"Ren set a schedule to G-Cosmic after tomorrow's meeting."
"You will attend a banquet?"
"No, It's for Serin's birthday, both of us would need a customized suit and since I'm free after my meeting with Doctor Nekriel then I'll squeeze the plan with my free time so tomorrow I could focus on the documents needed for review."
"I understand."
Ren lowered his head, type the reminder, and paused.
"T-This, President can I ask who is Serin?" that's the first time he heard his boss mention a name with a helpless but doting expression.
Could it be his boss's love interest?
"Quit your fantasy, Serin is your future boss."
"Ah? You have a son?!"
Qise cover his ears and raised an eyebrow, "It's my boss."
"Oh, so it's your boss...then---- wait what?! Your boss?!"
Ren couldn't understand, he was confused. His boss had a boss, how can that happen? with his boss's ability, someone is superior to him? What in the world...
"What's with that look?"
"P-President, that person is the owner of the Dhallian?"
Qise chuckled: "He's the true Dhallian, I just took a surname."
"Ah?"
It's over, he didn't expect that the prominent figure of the Dhallian company is just an acting CEO.
