“Dad. I still haven’t found any clues regarding Treasure Map… Tatsuya said.
Kenji nodded. “The information on Treasure Map has been dormant for many years. It’s not something that can be discovered overnight. Take your time.
Yes Dadi Tatsuya answered.
Kenji spoke earnestly, “Tatsuya, Suarez Group has already established a firm foothold in Vista Verde. Not only should we control the commercial sector o
“You are right, Dad. Currently, the two largest factions in Oakhaven are Star Gate and Blade Gate. I will look for opportunities to take control of these two
“Well. Tatsuya, make sure to be fully prepared before making a move against these factions. We cannot afford any mistakes.”
“Yes. Dad.
Tatsuya left the room, leaving Kenji alone.
Kenji then picked up a rectangular wooden box from a shelf in the room and placed it on his desk.
Upon opening the box, under the light, a yellowing, age–old book revealed itself.
The cover read Treasure Map Guide.
As he flipped through the book, each page had a drawing of a treasure–jade, gold, ceramics… all sorts of treasure illustrations.
Despite the fading due to age, the treasu
exquisite beauty was undeniable, each one a world treasure.
While Kenji flipped through the pages, he came across an illustration of a beautiful piece of art, an exemplary piece of craftsmanship that caught his eye
The page read: Renaissance Artwork from the Medici Collection
This artwork, crafted during the Renaissance, was exclusively for the royal Medici family, making it exceedingly precious.
It was for this reason that this piece of art was featured in this Treasure Map Guide,
After going through all the treasures, Kenji closed the book.
The guide was very precious to him with an extraordinary backstory.
It was obtained by an ancestor of the Suarez family, a martial artist who traveled across the eastern sea to Eldoria centuries NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
With his unparalleled martial arts skills, he became a notable figure in the martial arts world of Eldoria.
By a twist of fate, he obtained this Treasure Map Guide, which was said to be related to the King’s Treasure.
However, the guide only recorded some of the treasures, while the Treasure Map depicted the location the treasure.
His ancestor only obtained the guide, not Treasure Map.
Although he sought the map, in the end, he was defeated by a martial arts master in the central region of Eldoria.
Severely injured, he returned to Atita with the guide and on his deathbed, passed it on to his descendants, urging them to find Treasure Map and the Kin
Centuries passed, and the Suarez family gradually rose to power, becoming one of Ten Great Families in Atita, also one of Top Martial Arts Forces.
Hence, Kenji aimed to fulfill his ancestor’s wish, to find Treasure Map, the King’s Treasure, and to control the commercial and financial sectors of Eldoria
An ambitious endeavor!
Kenji placed the Treasure Map Guide back into the wooden box, gently closed the lid, and said, “Ancestor of Suarez, rest assured, 1, Kenji Suarez, will f
He then placed the box back on the shelf.
Three days later, in the early morning, Helene came to Gilmore’s room, knocking gently, “Gilmore, are you awake?”
“I am. Please come in. came Gilmore’s voice from inside.
Helene swiftly pushed the door open, only to find Gilmore carefully placing a piece of artwork into a cardboard box in the
TOOMI.
Her eyes lit up. “Is this… rare piece of Renaissance art?”
Gilmore secured the artwork in the box and looked up, affirming, “Yes, Renaissance art.”
Drawn closer by curiosity, Helene examined the artwork, her attention particularly captured by the marking at the base indicating its era.
She couldn’t help but question, “Is this really from the Medici Collection?”
Gilmore responded, “I’m not sure if it’s authentic. I bought it from an antique shop outside. Cost me several hundred
thousand.”
Upon hearing this, Helene deduced the situation and mentioned, “You must have bought a counterfeit.
“The Renaissance era represents the peak of artistic development, especially for such art pieces. It’s not something you can stumble upon easily.”
“But it cost me several hundred thousand!” He seemed to be in disbelief.
Helene shook her head. “It seems you were swindled without even realizing it. They love fleecing naive buyers like you. “Which antique shop did you get it from? I’ll have Murdoch return it right away!”
However, Gilmore dismissed the idea. “No, we can’t return it. I’m about to meet with Mr. Ken Davis, and this is meant as a
gift for him.
“Besides, even if you have Murdoch return it, the shop might not agree to take it back.”
Saying this, Gilmore closed the cardboard box securing the Renaissance artwork within,
Helene was speechless.
After recovering from the shock, Helene pointed to the box in Gilmore’s hands. “You’re not really going to give this fake item to Mr. Ken Davis, are you?”
Gilmore nodded solemnly. “Yes, this is the gift for Mr. Ken Davis. Whether or not I can acquire the shares in the Davis Group gold mine depends on this piece of Renaissance art.”
Hearing this, Helene felt dizzy.
It was clearly a fake, and Gilmore was actually going to gift it to Ken.
It would be good enough if Ken didn’t get angry and kick him out, let alone sell the gold mine shares to him.
How could this be possible?
But before Helene could react, Gilmore had already left the room.
Helene hurriedly called out, “Gilmore, wait for me. I have no urgent matters at the company today. I’ll go to the Davis‘ residence with you.”
She did have work at the company, but how could she feel at ease with Gilmore holding a fake item going to the Davis residence?
Hence, she decided to accompany him.
Gilmore, who had stepped outside the room, stopped and waited for her.
Helene walked over, linked her arm through his, and they both descended the stairs together.
The two left the villa, got into a Mercedes, and left the Fields‘ Manor.
As they left for the Davis‘ residence, at another villa, Kenji and Tatsuya also set out for the Davis‘ residence in a car.
