Going down the mountain was easy. Victor only had to ask one of the mansion’s guards to find a car for him, so a luxurious car was quickly prepared to take them back.
Victor quickly explained his destination to the female driver, who nodded her head in understanding and started the engine.

Sitting in the back seat of the speeding car, Lily looked out of the window and watched the passing scenery while wondering if all of today’s events were just a sweet dream that would end when she woke up. But Victor proved her wrong by suddenly laying down on the back seat and placing his legs against the window with his head on her lap, “Don’t move around, I want to have a nap,” He said, “Wake me up when the car stops.”.
With that said, he closed his eyes and started snoring.

Lily was very embarrassed. Her face turned as red as a tomato, and she did not know where to put her hands. But looking at the driver who faked not knowing what’s happening in the back. She took a little breath to stabilize her shaking hands. Then she slowly began to caress Victor’s head in her lap.

Time flowed quickly, and after half an hour, they reached their destination.
When the car stopped, Victor opened his eyes to meet Lily’s, who was about to wake him up and caused her to have a blush on her face.

“Young master, we have arrived,” she said softly.

He smiled at her, then quickly got up and out of the car.

Facing him was three stories modern Villa.

Even though his father only stayed here a few nights every other month, it was well maintained.

When he stepped down from the car, A tall man in a black uniform was waiting for him. It was George, his father’s butler.

Victor smiled and saluted him, “Uncle George, I did not expect to see you here. It is already late. You should be resting in bed instead of waiting for this youngster,” he said with a smile. George was always good to him. Even after being kicked out of the family back then, he still received occasional help from him.

“Young master Victor, this is just my duty, please follow me,” George said warmly then, guided them into the house.

After stepping inside, George ordered the maids to escort Lily to the bath and arrange a new set of clothes for her, then requested that Victor follow him.
Victor gave Lily a wink signaling her to follow the maid, then turned around and followed George into a side corridor leading to a well-lit study.

Once inside, George took out a black briefcase.
“In here, you will find your new credentials and the documents for some properties, and businesses, the family granted you. It is your reward,” George said as he handed it to Victor.

“Oh,” exclaimed Victor, what an unexpected reward.

“Master requested that after getting this bag, you should get familiar with what’s inside as soon as possible, and you will need to catch the plane to Vain city tomorrow at noon. You will act as the new CEO of the master’s branch company,” he emphasized.

“Is there anything else ?” Taking the briefcase and weighing it in his hand, Victor asked.

“I have already prepared a room for you and a fresh set of clothes, As for your luggage, it has already been sent to Vein city. If the young master have any further requests, then, the maids and myself are at your service,” said George.

“Nothing really, just ask Lily to find me in my room after she finished her bath,” said Victor, then left the study with the briefcase and ordered a maid to lead him to the room prepared for him.

...

After washing and changing his clothes, Victor sat on a comfy chair in his room with a freshly brewed cup of premium coffee.

Opening the briefcase George gave him, he started examining the documents inside. The first documents were a new Identification card, a passport, and a school acceptance letter.

When heirs leave the family, they would, more often than not, be given a fake identity for their protection. Influential families like his have many enemies.

His new name will be Victor White. He will act as the new CEO of Horizons Media a place he knew well from his previous life, It was also a branch of the mega multimedia production company his father runs. In addition to that, he has to start high school in about two months.

After that there was a book called, A guide to new players. That explained everything from status, skills, and the major powers in the world.

Next, there were many documents for different properties and estates inside the city, including a grand mansion. After skipping those, he took out a purple ornamented jade token. Looking at the rewards, Victor could only smirk. It seems his family truly values him now. It is probably his grandmother who commanded them to give him these.
Because after the ceremony, he noticed that his father and the patriarch were not sure what assignment to give him, so he guessed that they would have had to think about it for a few days at the very least. But now, after only taking the time he spent on the road, about 30 minutes. They decided to give him not only a complete company but also a high rank in the family.

This purple token is an artifact and having it meant that he is now a part of the True Bloods, the core members of the family. It is similar to a core disciple position in the martial arts sects.

With this, he has no reason to fear his fiancée or his stepbrothers, as the family will side with him and protect him as long as he does not break their rules. Yet with it comes some troublesome responsibilities. It seems his grandmother began to like him, or maybe wants to keep a close eye on him, or a bit of both. It does not matter.

Victor returned to the briefcase and continued to examine the documents one by one. They are all properties and resources allocated to him by the family. It seems his grandmother intends to test him, “well, that won’t be a bad thing.” he thought.

In his previous life, Victor’s position was not this good. After he barely survived the ceremony, The family ordered him to go to the same Vain city, but not as an heir, but as a small manager in his father’s company, where he had to work for a few years. It was not bad, but he could not reveal his identity and was not given much power. It was probably a part of his father’s efforts to protect him from his stepbrothers’ schemes.

Additionally, he had to go to high school as a student of a commoner origin. While it was not that bad, it made him very tired. And he couldn’t get any resources from the family to improve his strength and position.

When he fell into deep trouble later, he had very few allies in and outside of the family helping him.

A sudden knock on the door brought Victor back to the preset.

“Young master, it is me, may I come in?” Lily’s crystal voice sounded across the closed door.
