MAXandMILLS
[Welcome, Host, to your Third Transmigration!] [The system greets you once more and thanks you for your faithful and diligent duties] [Now, you inhabit the vessel: Ji Xuan.] [Ji Xuan, true heir to the once-greatest family empire, you must circumvent and restore the conglomerate’s status and honor.] [The Greatest Inheritance System grants you the ability and bandwidth to regrow your empire to your liking financially and politically with whatever assets and liabilities you start with. The Ji Family Empire fell long ago after your parents’ demise, overtaken by rivals who craved its power. This will be no easy task.] [10x multiplier on income and expenses. Please visit system label for more info.] [Remember, you were once tasked to topple a small-scale evil. Although unsuccessful, you proved your will and survived hell. You learnt leadership and sting of betrayal when you were tasked to reunite a chaotic word, gathering wisdom to your arsenal] [Now, you have to combine all to restore the Ji Family Empire, because only such a soul can handle the personal and cosmic stakes!] 'So, this vessel was actually a special kid all along. Wow.' 'Named Chen Xuan by some rundown orphanage, raised with no clue I was Ji Xuan, heir to a freaking empire.' 'Those nuns didn’t know squat, just slapped a name on a kid left in the dark. They don't know they raised a king. Unbelievable.'

The Duke’s Bargain

“What did you say?” Félix asked. She repeated, “Name your price.” “What is that supposed to mean?” His voice had tapered off with an unreadable emotion that got her weak in her knees, but she held out her chin. “Didn't you once offer to pay me off? Now, make me an offer I cannot refuse. Otherwise, I will go in there"—she gestured toward the Ball—"and make everyone think you dragged me out here to take advantage of me. I know exactly what that would do to your reputation.” “Say. That. Again,” Félix said through gritted teeth as he inched closer to her. ====================== She hadn’t meant to upset him or, worse, blackmail him. She didn’t even know who he was; she only knew he looked important because of how regally he stood in the moonlit dark. Estella was the baron of Cleverdale’s youngest, born into a hard life and always kept on her toes. Her stepsisters hated her. The baroness loathed her. And her father, the only one she called family, shattered her heart when he sold her to Viscount Alistair Ravensdale to cover up his misdeeds. The night of Lady Agatha’s ball, she seized her chance and ran straight into … Duke Félix of Chateaûbriant. In the dark, he mistook her for Princess Coralie, his fiancée, and kissed her. When the moon revealed her face, something about her stuck with him. He couldn’t shake the image of her running wildly or how she smelled like white lotus with hardcore roots. But when she threatened his reputation, he refused to play along. She returned to her world of cruel sisters and an unwanted engagement. What she hadn’t prepared for was the Duke arriving at her doorstep, making two outrageous claims. One. He was the Duke of Chateaûbriant. And two. She had stolen something valuable from him that night. What had she stolen without knowing it? Or worse, what could he possibly demand as repayment? ✯Like it? Add to Library!
