Travelling to Conquer the World

Breakfast in Hell

Twenty-eight dates each month are a schedule to get together with the rest of the family.

Don't know when the rule started, but there's no mercy for anyone who's absent without interest. That was also the reason no one had approached Alexei the past week. No one will beat him at a time adjacent to the family schedule.

But perhaps, Leandro and Allea will tremble today. They must have thought Alexei was dead in that cooler. The pair of twin brothers will also not check there since throwing the dying Alexei away in order to avoid investigation. They weren't stupid enough to have his men seen around District 13.

"Young Master Alexei will enter the room!"

Alexei stepped in, the sound of his shoes echoing throughout the room. The young man bowed while saying a short greeting before stepping towards the chair he used to occupy.

"Where are you going, Alexei?"

The question of the man sitting in the leader's seat stopped Alexei's steps. Not only was Alexei confused, it seemed that some of the people who were already present there also raised their eyebrows.

"I want to sit down, Dad." Alexei replied as he bowed to the figure he called father.

The man who still looks very handsome at a young age is the eighth leader of the Callister family. His figure is notoriously cruel in the business world feared by all circles.

Nherva Alvaro Callister, anyone who heard his name would definitely tremble, including Alexei who was in fact his biological son.

"Sit here" said Alvaro, pointing to the empty seat on his right side.

There were clear rules that Alexei knew about ever since he arrived at this mansion. The only person entitled to sit on the right side of the family leader is Mrs Callister. But, since the Madam's death so many years ago, the chair had always been empty.

Alexei also knew the only person given the right to sit there was just the next potential family leader. Telling Alexei to sit there is tantamount to announcing that Alexei has the greatest chance of inheriting Callister and the Hagan Group's corporate giants.

Damnit damnit! Alexei cursed inwardly as he stepped towards the place Alvaro had appointed. His stomach was cramping and nauseous as he sat down, right on his father's right side.

'What else is this old bangka planning?!' alexei was annoyed.

Needless to ask, the various stares of cynicism and hatred emitted were very clearly piercing Alexei from various angles. Then as he expected, Leandro and Allea who were sitting on the far left corner of the chair also looked at Alexei with bulging eyes.

Although of course what was surprising to the two brothers was not Alexei who was suddenly told to sit in the seat of the prospective heir. They've looked like the undead since Alexei's arrival.

'Hmm .. they must be very frightened, ' Alexei's inner self with a slanted smile. It was fun just by thinking of Leandro and Allea going through her day with anxiety.

"Because everyone's gathered, so you can eat now." Alvaro gestured, the maids moved quickly, serving the food neatly and precisely.

The breakfast together never started with a long speech or interspersed with warm chatter between brothers, so all that was heard was a puffed up breath from the servants.

Despite having lived through this tedious thing for so many years, Alexei was still not used to it. His throat felt choked every time he swallowed food. The savory taste of whole wheat bread and the sweet strawberry jam that Alexei used to enjoy, today tastes bitter and terrible.

"How have you been lately, Alexei?"

Alexei cleared his throat briefly before replying, "My condition is good, Father. Lately I've been exercising too" he said, glancing at Leandro and Allea unknowingly.

The last month only those two people were bothering Alexei. Since the others began busy scoring achievements and seeking Alvaro's attention, the two brothers became more free in disturbing Alexei without a hitch.

But, since Alexei was suddenly appointed to sit in this terrifying chair, the interference from his other brothers and sisters would definitely come in a more severe way.

"Is that so? It must be nice to have free time to exercise," said Alvaro after a while, of course know what 'sports' means said Alexei. "It's a pity that your time to play around is up" he continued, clucking.

'What does that mean?!' Alexei shouted in his heart. Damnit damnit! His heart was pounding so fast, getting more and more afraid of whatever his father planned.

Far different from his heart and mind that was in a state of worry and worry, Alexei's facial expression remained flat and emotionless, not changing in the slightest.

The meal filled with tension was over, but Alexei's feelings grew even more alarmed because it was at this time that usually the head of the Callister family would announce something.

Alexei, who was allowed to sit on Alvaro's right side, was the first announcement to shock everyone. Although Alvaro has not said anything yet, his actions have greatly explained what announcement he will make next.

Ting! Ting!

Alexei was a little surprised to hear the clanking of spoons and glasses that his father had done. He thought that strange system would suddenly appear in the middle of this kind of unpleasant atmosphere.

"I wanted to thank you first because you all always took the time to come and eat with me" Alvaro said. All eyes were on him ever since the man clinked at the glass and spoon.

Alexei almost turned his eyes to hear the pleasantries his father said. Though the man who gave clear rules and punished anyone who could not attend, now even pretentious to thank as if the presence of his children here without coercion. Hmh!

"Then, as always, there are some things I want to say today. First, the Hagan Group has finally taken over one of the biggest food factories in the world, you'll already know." Alvaro smiled, there was real satisfaction on his face.

"The second thing I want to say today must also have been known and understood." Alvaro continued his speech while looking at Alexei.

'Why did he see me?' Alexei sat in alarm, definitely going to curse whatever the haughty man by his side would say.

"Start today ... Xhebe Alexei Callister will receive an official education as the main heir to the Hagan Group and the next leader of the Callister family."

'Shoppers!!!'

The tring!

[Well, there are a lot of murder and accident patterns that people are thinking about here!]

[Welcome to hell, sir!]

Alexei frowned in annoyance as the system came at a very inopportune time.
