The Young Master in the Shadows

Chapter 368: Authenticity

“So…  How much money did we get?” Margret asked as she relaxed on the bed beside Victor and the girls after kicking her high heels away.

It was already morning when they left the cauldron, so naturally, Victor, who was a very busy man, chose to go to his bedroom and directly lay on the bed in between his already asleep harem.

“A lot, we can’t use the cash as it is traceable by its serial numbers, so I will get rid of it personally. The gold on the other hand will be processed by Alpha, after that, I will give one half to you to invest in your dark network, the rest will be divided between Alpha, Theta, and Hilda,” he said casually making Margret quickly give him a peck on his cheek. She really wanted to buy a new car, but she was a little short on money lately due to some very urgent investments.

“What’s your plan for the girls?” Lily asked. She didn’t care about money.

“They are not a priority for now,” he sighed. “Alpha will find some new hidden base for them in a month or so. I plan to raise them there as a secret army after they finish their work in the cauldron… Staying in it is not good for their health,” he said. “I plan to make Rita responsible for them, she will not be able to openly return to the family before we finish the Von Zwei. Not openly anyway!” he sighed. His family had many spies. Ritaʼs return, even in secret to give some information to the family, was very risky right now.

“And that girl Mavis, what about her? She might bring some disaster!” Lily asked. Feeling a little relieved that he was not planning to keep those women with him at all times. She could imagine him casually taking one of them out to play with if he really got bored.

“You saw how she was planning an escape already, so I will give her a chance… I just need to use my awakening skill on her after it cools down in a week or so. Then I will let her go!” he said.

“Yah! From one hand to the other…” Margret who began to already move her hand inappropriately around Victor’s thigh said.

“Yes…” he nodded as his sleeping harem began to open their eyes one by one. They could smell their prey.

“Regardless…” Lily spat as she hurried to take Victor’s side before the girls were fully awake. “How much data did we get before you blew up their servers by the way?” she asked.

“About 30% But since it is the most recent data we are good,” Victor said. “I will just give it to Alpha to process it…” he added as his sleepy harem began to climb onto him as if they were starving zombies. They really missed him last night.

“You do that… I already know their passwords...” Lily said casually as he watched the girls begin to undress their perverted husband.

It was the start of another uneventful day.

…

“Hi, I am Michael… Your big brother…” Micheal said to Mina and Mana before he hugged them hard.

“Ah… Hi…” the twins said nervously, not knowing what to do. Isn’t his hug a little inappropriate for a family member? His hands were lower than they should be.

They were waiting for his hand to go one more inch to castrate him, but he was saved a moment before that could happen as Mona his dear sister saved his life in one swooping move when she kicked his crotch and then dragged him away from the twins and threw him to the ground. It was as if she had done this move hundreds of times before.

“Don’t let him do as he pleases! Be careful around him… He is a pervert!” Mona warned as she wiped her hand with a handkerchief.

“MOM! Did you see how she treated me in front of my sisters!” Michela quickly asked his mother who was watching for help. “She is ruining my image!”

“You deserve it! And since when do you have an image?” Venessa asked casually as she looked at her three daughters. She couldn’t describe how happy she was. “So where are we going?” she asked. She was planning to spend the day shopping with her daughters, but she was not familiar with Vein City.

They agreed to meet Micheal who was tasked with arranging the men at the front of a famous mall, and now she had no idea what they should do.

“Ahh… This mall here belongs to our sister in law… So we thought we would go spend the day here and maybe buy some clothes for you and Mona…” Mina said as Mana nodded.

“Oh… You don’t need to buy anything…” Venessa said.

“No… We need to….” Mina said, insisting with a serious face.

“Victor told us that Micheal will be joining the actors in his new movie tomorrow, so we should go and watch!… And as Victor’s in-laws, you can’t go wearing cheap clothes!” Mana explained. “It is about Victor’s image!” she said. Although Victor didn’t care about his image, they did!

“This dress I am wearing is an Apparaty, you know…” Venessa said, raising one eyebrow. This dress costs a lot, it is a brand that is favored by many actresses.

“Exactly! CHEAP!” Mina said. Her fashion sense had been elevated to new heights after spending the last few months with Victor and Margret who knew what the real rich wore. Those brands that were meant to scam the masses no longer appeal to her or her sister. “Let us show you what true luxurious clothes are!” she said as they entered the mall.

“Why isn’t Victor here anyway?” Michle who followed asked. Although I had no idea about fashion, he was very curious.

“He did want to come, but last night he had too much work and he could only go to bed early in the morning…” Mina said, making Venessa nod. She didn’t see him or any of the other girls at breakfast.

“So he preferred to sleep instead of meeting his mother-in-law?” Mona asked angrily. After meeting with that girl Alpha last night, she heard from her how Victor repeatedly scammed her and her sisters. She was now even more angry with him. A disgusting pervert!

“No… He is not asleep,” Mina shook her head.  “He has night duty to catch up! I guess he will not leave bed until it is late afternoon…” she clarified, making her mother and sister frown and then blush as they realized what she meant. They had no idea why the twins were so open about such a subject… Shouldn’t they be jealous?

“It is the tax for having a large harem!” Mana added, making Micheal who was behind squeeze his fist. Damn… He wanted to pay that tax too!

“MINA! MANA!” someone suddenly called, making the family of five turn to watch a teenage girl head their way and then stand in shock when she noticed Mona. “Those are?” she asked.

“Ah… Those are our mother, Venessa, our triplet sister Mona, and our brother Micheal!” Mina quickly introduced. “And this is Mia… She is our sister-in-lawʼs stepsister!”

“Ahh… Nice to meet you!” Venessa quickly said as Micheal and Mona greeted Mia too.

“Nice to meet you too… “ Mia said casually. “Are you here to shop?” she asked with sparkling eyes as Michael causally gave her one look and then looked away. He was not interested in flat girls.

“D work here now?” Mana asked, noticing Mia’s formal dress and golden tag with her name on her flat chest.

“Yes… It is to gain some experience!” Mia lied.

The true reason was that her mean sister had stopped giving her an allowance after catching her in a nightclub with some shady friends who were introducing her to some new drug a month ago.

It was not her fault… She met those friends when she was feeling depressed after feeling how insignificant she was at Victor’s Wedding.

She didn’t know that those guys belonged to some very shady gang.

So, after her shady new friends were escorted to some very dark place by her sister’s very burly guards, Iris who gave her a lecture for 5 hours and spanked her butt numerous times, decided to discipline her by taking away all her privileges.

Mia knew that she could no longer survive outside after tasting what it meant to be rich, so she begged Iris for three days and two nights to give her a chance.

And it worked! Her sister relentlessly agreed after their stepfather intervened telling Iris that Mia was still young and she deserved a chance.

After some thinking, Iris ordered Mia to work here and earn a living climbing from the bottom up as a test!

She started as a normal clerk back then and had just got promoted to manager yesterday after she managed to uncover that her previous manager was secretly embezzling some money! As someone who was trained to be a thief, she had a natural gift for finding others like her.

Now, She couldn’t wait to get her hands on some filthy rich customer to scam… ehm... Serve, as her sister who was proud of what she did yesterday promised to give her a cut from every sale she facilitated!

“Oh… “ Mana nodded as her sister raised one eyebrow. “Then can you guide us to buy some clothes for Mona and Ve… Mom?” she said with a slight blush. She was still not used to calling Veness her Mom. “We need something luxurious, yet lowkey…” she explained as Michel wondered what that meant.

“Oh… I know… I think I have an idea…” Mia said with a very sweet smile. “Please follow me!”

…

It was late afternoon when the golden WHITE PHONE MX 8 MAX SUPER began to ring, disturbing Mike who was having a late launch with his harem.

Looking at it, he quickly answered.

“Victor! I havenʼt heard from you since the wedding! How is everything going?” he asked casually as his wives stopped talking and looked at him. They really liked Victor as when he came to visit Mike he treated them very well and didn’t care about their history. He even invited them all to his wedding! The only reason they didn’t go was not to embarrass  Mike in front of his family.

“I am a newly married man… What do you think!” Victor replied over the phone. Mike could hear the giggle of a girl in the background, but he decided to ignore that. “Are you available tomorrow?” Victor asked.

“Tomorrow? Why?”

“I need you for some important shit!” Victor said.

“Is it Urgent?” Mike asked.

“Yes… I can’t delay the audition until after Grandmaʼs birthday after all!” Victor said.

“What audition? What does it have to do with me?” Mike asked.

“It has to do with your twin wives, Hunny and Bunny, right? Anyway, It is for my new big movie… You see, I need some hot twins to play a role in it!”

“You have your own twins for such a role!” Mike scolded looking at both Hunny and Bunny who were sitting beside him.

“I planned to, but my twins have betrayed me, they turned out to be triplets!” Victor said.

“Ahh... What? Really?” Mike was surprised. Did his brother just surpass him?

“YES! Can you believe the audacity they have to pull something like that?” Victor replied. He sounded offended.

“Ah… No… Have you got the new one to join your harem yet?” Mike asked.

“Working on it… Auch… Auu…Auu… Sorry… The movie is the priority right now!” Victor said. He sounded in pain.

“Can’t you just let two of them act?” Mike asked, failing to figure out his brother’s train of thought.

“No way! The authenticity of the movie would be in danger!” Victor flared.

“And since when do you care about authenticity?”

“Since yesterday, I have been reflecting on my behavior… I have been losing my Authenticity lately, especially after scamming a hundred girls at the same time… Lily says I need to repent,” Victor said in a sad tone. “Anyway… The role is for sluts, and your girls would be perfect!” Victor said. His tone was cheery again.

“Oh… Fine, fine… Let me ask them first!” Mike, realizing something, said.

“NO, they have to come, this is not negotiable… You have to come too…” Victor interrupted.

“What does it have to do with me?” Mike asked. He was going anyway, but he needed to ask.

“They won’t be able to act slutty enough without you!” Victor replied. “I want AUTHENTICITY!” he added.

“Ahh? Fine… I will be there at noon tomorrow…” Mike frowned a little then put the phone down.

“Is there anything?” Bunny asked.

“Victor needs some hot twins to act as the villains in his new movie, and his twin wives turned out to have a triplet sister and they are no longer suitable for the role, so he called to ask if the two of you are available… ” he said. “Do you want to act?” he asked.

“Is it really ok?!” both of them asked at the same time as the rest of the harem nodded. They really wanted to be in a movie, but their history which could be dug up easily forbade them from entering the industry as no sane director would hire them and the press would literally eat them alive.

“It is ok, the role is for evil sluts… And Victor wants authenticity!” Mike said casually, “If anything went wrong, he would be the one taking the blame!” he added, making his harem chuckle a little.

They didnʼt notice the slight frown in Mike’s eyes. He was not a fool, and could easily realize that Victor needed to talk to him in some secretive manner, and their meeting must be natural! This was what the Authenticity Victor kept repeating meant.
