Ch. 371..375: Rebirth_ Dancing In My Destiny Chapter 371-375

Chapter 371: Awesome Daughter

"These are all your favorite snacks... I’m sure you’ll finish them tomorrow."

Rose is touched because her mother still remembers her favorite snacks. "Thank you, mom. Of course, I’ll eat them all..."

"My son-in-law already left?" Ask Nicholas Spencer.

"Yes, dad... Maybe you guys passed each other in the elevator." Rose paused for a moment before continuing, "Dad, thank you for coming here to save Oliver."

Nicholas Spencer smiled faintly. Even though he knew Oliver’s injuries weren’t life-threatening and could be treated by ordinary surgeons, Nicholas flew here anyway. Because he was delighted when his daughter asked for help. He felt he could carry out his duties as a father and simultaneously fulfill his daughter’s request.

"There’s no need to say those words. I’ll do whatever you ask...." Nicholas Spencer smiled, looking at his only daughter.

From yesterday until today, Rose is constantly touched by her friends and now her father and mother. She was at a loss for words to express her feelings at this moment. Even so, she could only repay their kindness and caring with a sincere smile that framed her face now....

"Oliver is fine now. You don’t have to worry," said Molly while feeding Rose strawberries.

Rose is stunned. She didn’t realize that her mother had fed her the strawberries while she was in a daze. And once she came to her senses, she felt very embarrassed.

"Mom... I can eat by myself." Rose was embarrassed that now her father was looking at her.

"Why? You usually ask me to feed you if you eat!?" Molly teased her daughter—trying to cheer her mood so she could forget what happened yesterday.

Molly was frightened when she heard the news of her daughter’s accident. Especially after knowing the chronology. It was as if her soul had left her.

Fortunately, God blessed her daughter and her friends—protected them until they could be helped. If something happened to her daughter, Molly didn’t know how she could survive to continue her life. Yesterday was the worst day Molly had ever had—imagine losing her daughter.

Molly is sure that her daughter must be traumatized by what happened yesterday, but she’s just trying to be strong when she really isn’t. But as a mother, Molly could tell by looking into her daughter’s eyes.

Nicholas laughed at how adorable his daughter was now when her mother teased her.

Rose, "..."

"Rose, I heard you had an accident on the mountain towards the border to Alto city, right!?"

"Yes, dad."

"If I’m not mistaken, the roads there are very challenging, even for an avid driver. It also had taken many lives. What were you doing passing that bloody road?" Nicholas asked with genuine concern.

Since Nicholas heard from Evan about his daughter’s car accident, he was confused. What was his daughter doing in the mountains?

As far as he knew, his daughter had gone to Vale City to attend an important company meeting. But suddenly, she was a few miles away from the city, which made him suspicious.

Rose was stunned hearing her father’s question—she hadn’t told them about the gold mine yet.

"Yeah, I’m curious too. Why did you go to a remote area? Do you have a project there?" Molly, who was still feeding her daughter, also asked.

"Dad, Mom... do you remember the company that almost went bankrupt, Rapid Realty?"

Nicholas and Molly nodded. Despite not being involved in their daughter’s company, their daughter often talks about the development of her business.

"It just so happened that one of the Rapid Realty lands contained Pure Gold. So I went there to look before we started exploring..." Rose continued.

Nicholas and Molly felt that the news was too shocking. Gold mine? Is their daughter joking?

"Rose, although your father doesn’t know much about the business world, there’s something odd about it. Earlier, you said that Rapid Realty was bankrupt, right!?"

"Yes..."

"How can a company that owns a gold mine go bankrupt?"

Rose sighs. Even a fool would think that way.

She could already guess if her father had asked that.

"The company’s commissioners and directors, or at least some of them, cover up the real results of their mining research. In fact, Rapid Realty has spent a lot of money to build infrastructure at the mine site with loan funds from state banks. After the latest research results came out with unexpected results, this was a huge blow to Rapid Realty. Not to mention a number of their failed projects that left the company unable to operate and later was declared bankrupt...."

Rose told her father everything, including when she won the bidding offer. After she declared a new owner, she finally asked the research team to do another research on the site. But Rose hid the facts about the people who knew the research results were actually killed.

She couldn’t tell them. They might panic if they found out about it.

Nicholas couldn’t help but praise his only daughter for her success. His daughter is fantastic!

"Congratulations, daughter... I am very proud of you. You really have talent and luck in business like your grandfather." He laughed happily, hearing this news. "Ah! Rose, you know your grandpa’s company has many mines in this country, right? Not only gold, but they also manage other mining products like copper, nickel, and gems."

"Yes, dad. I know...."

"Good. Now that you have also found a gold mine, you should contact your uncle. So he can guide you. He is more experienced in this field." Nicholas is very excited. He can’t wait to brag to his brother and father about this. They might be surprised to hear that.

"Thank you, dad. But I can’t cooperate with Spencer Group because I have signed a cooperation agreement to use Dream Inc as our mining contractor. Dad, I believe you know Dream Inc, right?"

"Dream Inc!? Yes, sure, I know them...." Nicholas Spencer frowned. He had heard of this new giant company in this country, which has grown exponentially in the last few years.

"Right now, we’re working with them..." Rose smiled at her father’s surprised expression.

Suddenly Nicholas worries that his daughter might have made the wrong decision and entered a dangerous and vile world.

Chapter 372: Hester Group Doom (1)

"Rose, can I suggest you?" After seeing his daughter nod, Nicholas Spencer continued, "I suggest you cooperate with the Spencer Group. Because this mining project is not a small business, if you cooperate with other companies, I’m afraid they will do things that can harm your company."

Nicholas’ concerns were based on the fact that his daughter’s company was just founded, and they had no experience in the mining business. This business is different from other businesses, such as property or the banking industry. There are many mafias in this mining business.

"Father, don’t worry. Dream Inc will never deceive us..." Rose smiled at the thought of Evan harming her company—how could he do that?

Even before he left, her husband wanted to make her company gain profits far more significant than his own company. That man pampered her so much—he will never harm her.

"My daughter, listen to your father." Molly, who had been silent for a while, became worried after hearing their conversation.

Rose, "..."

"How sure are you with Dream Inc?" Molly asks.

Molly knows Dream Inc. is a big company. They have many five-star hotels spread over several big cities in this country. Apart from that, they are also prominent in the business finance society. But she agrees with her husband’s idea. If they can work with a family company, why not?

"Yes, Rose. You have to think deeply. This is no small project..." added Nicholas.

"Dad, Mom, Dreams Inc would never hurt my company. Because Dream Inc belongs to Evan." Rose had no other way but to tell her mother and father the truth. Otherwise, they will worry about her even more.

"WHAT!?" Nicholas and Molly shouted in unison, shocked to hear that.

For a moment, there was no sound in the room. Molly and Nicholas were shocked by the news that Dream Inc.’s owner was their son-in-law, Evan Collins.

Did they hear wrong?

"Daughter, what I hear is that Evan only owns an investment company, Starlight Investments." Nicholas, who finally digested the shocking news, could string a few words out. "If I’m not mistaken, the companies are also huge. Most of their investments are in start-up companies. But they have also acquired many large companies. Am I right??"

Rose was surprised that her father knew so much about business.

"Father, it turns out that you understand a lot about business news in this country, huh!?" Rose couldn’t help but smile knowing that.

Nicholas’ laughter echoed throughout the room before replying, "Well, even though I only live in my secret laboratory, far from the capital, I can still access the internet. Business and political news are my entertainment at night..." For some reason, imagining his past made his chest tighten. He paused for a breath of air, feeling sad about his lonely day before meeting his little family.

Rose, who could see the slight change in her father’s expression, immediately changed the subject. She says, "Evan does have a Starlight Investment, but he also founded Dream Inc company. However, for Dream Inc, he kept his identity as the owner of the company a secret. He asked his best friend to run the company for him, and he wasn’t involved in managing the company..."

"Why did he hide his identity?" Molly asked, confused.

"Mom, it’s their family matter..." Rose suddenly paused. She didn’t know what to say. She looked at her father, "Dad, you know Evan’s problem with his father, right?"

"Yes, I know. Anthony Collins is so stupid. Because of his uncontrollable lust, he ruined his marriage. He got his karma, his wife left him, and his only son hates him..." Nicholas stopped staring at his wife. "Wife, I promise I will never see another woman but you in this life and the life after this. My eyes and my heart only belong to you. You have to trust me, huh!?" He took Molly’s hand and kissed it gently.

"I know Nick... I trust you." Molly’s rosy cheeks almost make Rose’s nose bleed.

Rose was speechless.

Why did her parents suddenly show their PDA!?

*****

At the same time, in an apartment not far from the Promise Hospital, Vale City,

Archy Hester could no longer hide his nervousness. Several minutes passed as he paced back and forth in his presidential suite room. It’s been more than 24 hours, but the assassins he paid to kill his half-brother haven’t contacted him.

"Did they succeed?"

This question left his mouth so many times he couldn’t count it anymore, and until now, he couldn’t find an answer. The assassins didn’t contact him, and he couldn’t reach them either.

Those people promise they will contact him once their task is done. However, no incoming calls are reporting the results of their mission. Surprisingly, there was no news on television reporting a car accident.

"Did they fail!?" Archy Hester asked himself as he stopped moving and stood motionless by the glass wall.

His eyes stared intently at the beautiful sea outside—but he couldn’t enjoy its beauty. The anxiety he felt was getting bigger and bigger. He couldn’t calm down. This mission was vital to him. He would be in huge trouble if the assassins failed to carry out the task.

Deep down in his heart, he wished the assassins success.

"They can’t possibly fail, right!?" Archy muttered again. He didn’t believe they would fail because he had used a top-class assassin.

But why is there no news?

"They failed!?" another soft mutter escaped his mouth.

He checked his phone for the umpteenth time. But still, no incoming calls or text messages.

Archy didn’t realize how long he had been standing there, his mind too busy thinking about this matter. But moments later, he jumped in surprise as the sound of the blaring bell door deafened his ears.

He cursed as he walked to the door.

"What is it!?" He looked at his secretary with an annoyed look.

"Sir, please read this news..." Scott said as he handed the iPad to Archy.

Instantly Archy’s body froze.

Was it news of Oliver’s death?

 

Chapter 373: Hester Group Doom (2)

Three Days Later...

After three days in the hospital, Rose, Oliver, and the others left Vale city, returning to the Capital. While Nicholas Spencer, Molly, and Oliver’s Grandma joined their group.

Sam and Oliver will continue treatment at the Promise Hospital headquarter in the Capital. At the same time, Rose, she will return to her home in Misty Mountain. She had a lot to do, especially preparing her wedding plans.

And...

For the past three days, news about Hester Group in Nova city has filled the business news on national television and the internet.

Headlines on the internet, to the shock of the entire nation.

[Dream Inc ends partnership with Hester Group on technology with a multibillion-dollar project.]

[Hester Group shares hit their lowest point since entering the stock exchange.]

[The well-known investment firm, Starlight Investment, has suddenly withdrawn its investment from the Hester Group.]

[Breaking News: Two business giants Spencer and Collins Group, have terminated cooperation with the Hester Group.]

[Hester Group is on the verge of bankruptcy.]

[The business giant in Nova city, Hester Group, is facing bankruptcy.]

News like that every day appears on TV screens and many websites.

Not only that but, many of Astington’s leading economists speculated that the Hester Group had just offended sleeping lions. They even predicted that Hester Group would not be able to escape from this crisis.

This issue has also become a hot topic of discussion between Rose and her friends who visited her house today.

Randy and the others could guess that what happened to the giant company, Hester Group, had something to do with the accident that happened to Rose a few days ago.

"Hester Group deserves it!" said Danny. "Rose, are you the one who punished them!?"

Rose couldn’t help but smile at Danny’s question. She didn’t need to answer that. She believes her friends would have guessed it. Well, indirectly, she did not do it. However, it was Evan and, of course, Evan who also contacted Collins and the Spencer Group to pressure the Hester Group.

"I’ve often heard that the Hester Group is famous for using various ways of running their business, including illegal methods. They are notoriously cruel. And this punishment they deserve..." said James.

When his friend had an accident in Vale City, he was the only one in the Capital. The news shocked him. He wanted to fly there to meet them, but he couldn’t. He had to stay at the head office to take care of everything—he is the only board director who stays in the Capital. So, he just relied on the phone to get information from Danny and Randy.

"Rose, I think... the punishment you gave Archy Hester was too light. That stupid Archy will never learn his mistake if you only punish him that way..." said Danny with a really thoughtful expression. For him, the assassination attempt must be repaid with the same method.

"That’s right if you just exposed his scandals on the internet—gambling, womanizer, and drug use—I think his punishment would be too light. With the Hester Group’s name behind him, he definitely won’t be arrested by the police, right!?" said James.

Just before Rose wanted to answer, she heard the wise Randy say,

"Guys... your mind is so slow! By revealing all the scandals he has ever done in public, he will be judged by A-Netz*. Did you forget how they usually do? Well, A-Netz is very critical, far more critical than prosecutors in court. Besides, did you guys forget that the Hester Group is in big trouble!?" Randy chuckled before continuing, "I’m sure Old Spencer doesn’t have the time to deal with Archy matters. Since Hester Group is facing a bigger problem—they are on the verge of bankruptcy."

Danny and James nodded in agreement.

"Rose, I want to ask you something, can I?" Ask James.

"What is it?"

"Today, the share price of Hester Group has reached its lowest price since entering the stock exchange. What do you think of the Hester Group stock? Are the prospects for this company still good in the future? Are you interested in buying their shares?" Even though he disliked Old Hester and Archy Hester, this company still had a lot of growth potential.

And he asked for Rose’s opinion because the stock reviews Rose shared in their chat group were ninety percent accurate lately. Whereas previously, this girl was the laziest to review stocks, for some reason, all the stock analyses she shared in this group in the last few months hit the target.

Now, James wanted to know Rose’s opinion. As someone who had been in the stock market for a long time, he was clearly interested in the Hester Group. But with the pressure exerted by the business giant Collins and Spencer, he was afraid to buy it despite the low price.

"The company has potential. If you want to buy their shares, wait a few days." Rose calmly replied.

"So you mean the price is still going down!?" asked Danny joining the conversation. He was surprised to hear that because the price of the Hester group’s shares is already below its valuation lately, but this girl says it’s still falling!?

"Hmm... wait for my signal. I will share in the group chat when it is the right time for you to buy. "

"Are you also interested in buying their share?" Randy asked.

"Sure! Guys... do you believe that I was the one who made their stock fall that deep?" A playful smile frames her face.

Everyone was shocked at her words.

"A-Are y-you s-serious?" Danny asked haltingly.

"Rose, you are so brave!!" James gave two thumbs up in praise.

"Rose, only you can do that...." Randy believed that Rose had too many powerful companies behind her—Dream Inc, Collins Group, and Spencer Group.

Rose laughed at their expressions. She continued, "Well, I was kidding. However, I’m sure their stock will continue to drop. When the time comes, I’ll buy their stock. I’ll make sure to be the largest shareholder in the Hester Group and I’ll give the share to Oliver, it’s my gift to him because he risked his life to save me."

Randy and the others were shocked when they saw the sinister look in Rose’s eyes—this girl was going mad.

Instantly they felt sorry for the Hester Group for provoking this little devil. The Hester Family was doomed the day they hurt her and anyone she cared about.

Chapter 374: Hester Group Doom (3)

At the same time, at Dream Inc, Headquarters.

Wallace Hester sat alone in an empty office. He awaited the arrival of CEO Marvin Sanders. But it’s been almost an hour, and the man didn’t show up. He felt angry, but he couldn’t do anything.

He just held it and waited.

Before coming to the capital, Old Hester had buried himself in his house at Nova city for the past few days. He was in big trouble. Almost all his companies faced a massive problem as business partners such as Dream Inc, Spencer Group, and Collins Group abruptly cut off their partnership. Negative rumors about the company surfaced on the internet.

He was aware that someone was attacking him and his company, but after trying various attempts to find out who was behind all of this, he couldn’t find the answer either. Even after he used his powerful resources, he couldn’t find anything.

But yesterday he realized that Dream Inc is one of the companies that cut off all cooperation with his company. Followed by Collins and Spencer Group, the business giants in the country.

How could he calm down if these three business giants attacked him?

He felt strange. Because he never had a dispute with the three companies. But why did they attack him?

Why?

Why did they break off a partnership that had existed for years when there were no problems with the projects they were working on!?

The termination of this business partner is a major blow for the Hester Group because now other small partners are starting to do the same.

And, that wasn’t the only problem the Hester Group had, other problems started to emerge; Hester Group shares fell to their lowest price in ten years and didn’t stop there, still falling deeper.

Wallace Hester was devastated when he saw the company he built decades ago suddenly fall.

How could he let that happen?

Since yesterday, he wanted to meet with Marvin Sanders, but the man didn’t give him any time.

Until this morning, they finally gave him time to meet at Dream Inc’s headquarters. He rushed to the capital only to meet Marvin Sanders, who was much younger than him.

He felt humiliated—if this man wasn’t the CEO of Dream Inc, he wouldn’t have done this.

Wallace Hester couldn’t avoid doing this because his company’s affairs were getting more complicated. He wants to ask Marvin Sander for help so that the Hester Group can be helped from bankruptcy.

This was the first time Wallace Hester had waited for someone this long. He had been sitting in the CEO’s room for over an hour, but Marvin Sanders had yet to show up. Now he was starting to worry that this meeting would be canceled.

Dream inc is his only hope after the other two business giants—Spencer and Collins Group—completely ignore him.

While Wallace Hester was deep in thought, trying to figure out the cause of his company’s trouble, a young man appeared in the room.

"Mr. Wallace Hester, sorry to keep you waiting." Marvin Sanders smiled as he offered a handshake. Then he sat opposite Wallace with his calm expression.

Wallace Hester’s annoyance disappeared as soon as Marvin Sanders appeared. This was the third time he had met this successful young man. His leadership aura is powerful despite his young age. Wallace was confident that this man was the same age as his grandson, Archy Hester. However, their personalities and achievements were incomparable, like the earth and sky.

His spoiled grandson couldn’t even lead a small branch office. Who else could be the leader of Hester Group? Maybe just a month after sitting in the CEO’s chair, the company went bankrupt instantly. Luckily Earl Hester, his only son, had that talent. But sadly, his son hates him badly, and now he’s having difficulty controlling him—he is getting smarter.

"Mr. Marvin Sanders, nice to meet you. Thank you for taking the time to meet this old man."

"Haha, Mr. Hester, you are too kind. I should be the one apologizing for making you wait. I’ve been busy in Vale City lately..." Marvin smiled politely, but he was cursing this old man in his heart. He knew who this man was and knew how ruthlessly he ran his business.

"Hahaha, anyway, thanks..."

"Mr. Hester, what made you come to see me?" Marvin asked casually as if not knowing the news that still dominates the news in this country.

The broad smile that framed Wallace Hester’s face slowly faded as he remembered that his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

"It’s about our cooperation. I want to know why Dream Inc terminated all co-operated contracts with our company. Mr. Sanders, please tell this old man. If we have a problem, I promise you I will fix it. And if my company makes a mistake, then as the founder of the Hester Group, I will apologize to you, personally...."

Marvin didn’t want to spend too much time meeting this old man. "Mr. Hester, you can ask your team for that because all the reasons have been clearly explained on the paper we send to your office..."

Old Hester’s mouth twitched at Marvin Sander’s words. All the excuses they gave made no sense. Therefore, he insisted on asking for a time to meet and ask in person.

Just as Wallace was about to say something, he heard Marvin continue his words. "And, Mr. Hester, you should ask your grandson; what he was doing a few days ago in Vale City!?"

Old Hester’s heart sank.

Archie Hester? So the problem is Archy? What did the stupid brat do?

"Mr. Sanders, if my grandson Archy offended Dream Inc. I apologize. But, please don’t pressure us like this..."

Now Wallace couldn’t ask his grandson. He could only apologize and plead with this young man.

If this young man asked him to kneel, he would—and once he returned to Nova City, he would punish his foolish grandson.

Marvin chuckled, "Mr. Hester, our decision is firm..." After saying that, Marvin stood up and motioned for Wallace Hester to leave his office. "Sorry, I have another meeting outside."

Chapter 375: Hester Group Doom (4)

At Vale City.

After Old Hester met Marvin Sanders, he headed straight to the airport and flew back to Vale City.

As soon as he arrived at his house, he called his son and grandson. He wanted to ask his grandson—what did he do to anger the three business giants in this country!?

His trip to the capital was a complete waste. He couldn’t help his company to become stable from the pressure of the three corporate uniting to attack them. He couldn’t do anything either because Hester Group was like a pebble in their eyes.

"Father? Why did you call me?" Earl Hester came in with a sullen look. When he was busy with the chaos that occurred at the office, his father asked him to go home immediately. He refused several times, but his father insisted—his father said; there were important matters to discuss regarding the case they were facing now.

Earl Spencer was forced to abandon what he was doing and rush over here.

Old Hester remained silent.

He lifted his hand slightly, asking his son to sit down first.

Not long after, Archy Hester entered the room with light steps, but from the look on his face, it was clear he wasn’t in a good mood right now. After greeting his grandfather and father, he sat beside his grandfather.

"Grandpa, why did you ask me to come?" Archy asked impatiently. While he was still busy clearing his name on the internet, his grandfather asked him to come here.

Archy would guess that his grandfather called him because of this matter; his reputation these past two days was like entering downhill. Someone attacked him—slandered him.

Since his dirty rumors appeared, he had asked the hacker he used to use to erase all news about him. Still, strangely, the hacker could not do so, as if someone more powerful was behind this attack.

Which annoyed him so much. Until now, he didn’t know who had attacked him. And what’s worse is the gossip about him had plummeted the Hester Group’s stock value. Hester Group was hit hard—this matter clearly made his grandfather angry with him.

Archy Hester had absolutely no idea what was going on with the Hester Group—he was just an ordinary manager at the company. All this time, his attention was distracted by his problems.

Not hearing his grandfather answer, Archy asks again, "G-Grandpa!?" He turned to look at his grandpa. He was shocked. His grandpa stared at him sharply as if he wanted to kill him with his murderous gaze.

Why is this old man so angry that he looks like he wants to kill me?

"What were you doing in Vale city a few days ago?" Old Hester’s cold voice was enough to make Archy Hester freeze when he heard ’Vale city.’

He sent an assassin to kill Oliver, his half-brother, four days ago. But, until today, he had not heard about the result of the killer he hired. And strangely, there was no news about the incident on television or the internet.

What frightened him was that he couldn’t find Oliver’s whereabouts until today. Even when he sent someone to wait near his office and apartment, Oliver never appeared, as if he had vanished from this country.

Archy is sure no one will ever know he sent assassins to kill Oliver. The killer wouldn’t know his true identity—he faked his identity when he contacted them.

But, now... he wasn’t calm.

Why did his grandfather ask about that? How did he know he was doing something in Vale city?

"Grandpa, what do you mean?" Archy tried to determine how much his grandfather knew about what he was doing there.

Old Hester was not in a rush to speak. He picked up the teacup on the table and slowly took a sip. After he put the cup back, he glanced at his grandson.

"Tell the truth, what the hell are you doing in Vale City four days ago?" His tone has never been this serious. "If you try to lie to me, I will freeze all your financial resources and then fire you from your current position!"

Earl Hester was surprised by his father’s attitude towards Archy. During this time, his father always pampered his son. No matter what mistake Archy made, his father never once scolded him. Even if Archy made a big mistake that would tarnish Hester’s name, his father would help Archy out of trouble.

But now his father is threatening Archy!? What happened? Why did this old man suddenly change!?

Archy Hester was terrified from shock. The look in his grandfather’s eyes seemed to be able to make him anxious and afraid.

"G-Grandpa, I... I visited Vale city to have fun with my friends." Archy is lying. He would never reveal that he sent someone to kill Oliver because his father would beat him to death if he had known.

"You don’t want to say!?" Old Hester’s cold eyes are not showing mercy to this ignorant brat. The grandson he was proud of, whom he cared about, dared to lie to him! He couldn’t tolerate it. "Well!"

Old Hester called his assistant and asked him to freeze all of Archy’s assets. He also asked to announce the dismissal of Archy from the Hester Group.

Instantly Archy’s body froze. His face turned deathly pale. He quickly knelt before his grandfather begging for forgiveness.

He couldn’t hide it anymore—this old man was really angry.

"G-Grandfather, I’m sorry. I know what I’m doing is over the line. But I never meant to kill him. I just wanted to teach him a lesson....." His voice trembles.

Archy knew his grandfather had a tender heart for him. This old man would surely forgive him—he only needed to plead and pretend to cry, and this old man’s heart would melt.

A mischievous smile framed Archy’s face as he stared at his grandfather’s feet.

"Kill someone? What are you doing, Archy Hester?" Earl Spencer, who had been silent now, asked. Confused by his son’s words. Kill? Who does he want to kill?
