Rona looked at the document in Kaiser's hands, a trace of confusion on her face.

"I'm giving you this company, let's see what you can do with it. To whom much is given, much is expected."

Rona's heart skipped a beat and she immediately looked at Kaiser. Why was he giving her a company? Didn't he hate her anymore? Wasn't he afraid that she might allow others to dig into the company's resources?

"In the past month, I heard you have been doing research on cosmetics to set up your own brand. And I happen to have an independent company that is not connected to the others, specializing in cosmetics. I have transferred the ownership of the company to you. Also, there's a patent for a newly developed product that eliminates wrinkles and aging, letting middle aged people and old ones look thirty years younger. You can register the patent and take control of the company. Also, capital has been secured for you and deposited into the company account. You don't have to worry about taking loans or breaks in the capital chain."

"This is too much. I can't accept this." Rona stuttered, shoving the documents back to him.

"And why is that? I, your older brother, is giving you a gift, how dare you refuse? You're no longer a child, it's time to take up responsibility and be seen by the rest of the world. I made things easy for you, not so you can slack off. It's to ensure you can multiply the funds in a few months and expand the company's scope within a year. As my sister, if you can't even do this much, then you don't deserve my support."

"You still see me as your sister?" She muttered, her eyes unsure and insecure as she looked at him.

"What stupid question is that? Why won't I see you as my sister? It's true that you have been incredibly foolish, hurting everyone deeply. We don't know where our first brother could be at this point. As for me…" He cut off his words and sighed.

"Rona, don't listen to their nonsense. I may not like you much at this point, but you will always be my sister, the only girl in our family. I won't disown you, but if you make the mistake of letting the enemy use you again, I will kill you myself."

Rona hugged him and began to cry, making Kaiser stunned. Hearing her cry always made him confused and uncomfortable, even till now.

"Stop crying. How old are you that you still burst into tears at the slightest provocation? If you act like a baby, how will you be able to control your employees?" He asked, patting her back.

"I thought you hated me, and mom too. I hate myself. I can't believe I'm the reason such a thing happened to the both of you. Everyday I'm scared of what they might do with the soul shards, but I'm too weak to help or do anything. I… I…" The rest of her words were drowned in heartbreaking sobs as she cried heavily against his chest, staining his white shirt with tears and mucus from her nose.

Kaiser rolled his eyes and sighed, patting her back. She soon regained her composure and wiped her face.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that."

"It's fine, as long as you don't cry outside. No matter how big you grow, you're still our little girl. I just hope you won't keep being that stupid little girl forever." Kaiser replied.

"Thank you, for forgiving me."

Kaiser burst into laughter at this point.

"Forgive you? Are you delusional? You think I will forgive you after all you did to Anthony and I? Do you know how much pain you've caused us? I will never forgive you, Rona. I never forgive mistakes, or forget. I'm merely giving you another chance to prove yourself because you're my sister—my only sister."

Rona's shoulders slumped. Sure enough, Kaiser never changed, he's still as acidic as ever. As if he would ever let her live without the guilt and become complacent. Otherwise, she might go back to her previous carefree and easily deceived self.

"There's a fashion subsidiary attached to Beauty Concept, make sure you manage it well. Josh will introduce you to your team and new assistant. But if you feel like you can't work with them you can select a new assistant after you familiarize yourself with the business. Go ahead, I have things to do."

SOMEWHERE IN DRAGON CLAN

The room was dark and slightly illuminated by candles. Old men wearing cloaks which covered their faces were seated around the table, and the door was closed.

"After today's incident, I'm convinced that Joyce and her children have something they're not telling us. Kaiser's extraordinary strength can be excused as a fluke or a genius that appears once a thousand years. But what about his brother? And now, Rona, that waste suddenly got powerful after a few days of breaking off relations with the rest of the clan."

"Could it be a magic art? Reports show that Rona had a similar aura to Kaiser when she fought. It could be a magic art or a potion that amplifies strength to an insane level within a short time."

"That could be true. Joyce used to be a genius when it came to drugs and chemical manipulation, one of the reasons that waste could become the patriarch after the inheritance war."

"The idea of them using a drug to unlock their potentials and increase cultivation seems more valid. However, what about the side effects? Rona also began to act irrational and crazy, unlike her real self. The drug could be messing with the mind. In that case if it's unable to be controlled, there will be a huge problem."

"The only problem I see here is getting the drug or secret art from them. Kaiser wouldn't even share the formulas for the newly developed drugs that only bring in money. Will he actually share those that matter like this one that increases strength with minimal side effects?"

"No one is talking about asking Kaiser to hand it over here. He won't. If anything, it would make him more guarded towards us. If we want the secret arts and drugs they use for training, we have to use our own means to find out."
