The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

“He hired an actress and rented a knockoff car. He claimed that there was a billion dollars

inside the bank card he got me and bragged that his car was worth ten million dollars.

“He even set a pile of fake luxury handbags and counterfeit cosmetics on fire in front of

me.

“He pretended to be loaded and showed off in public as if he was some big shot. Who can I

turn to to air my grievances?”

She turned to her colleagues. “In comparison, what you suffered just now was nothing. You

guys only lost half a day’s wages. On the other hand, my first marriage failed, and I lost

six months of my youth!”

A woman’s tears were a weapon that could move even hearts of stone, especially when it

was from a beautiful woman like Melanie.

Earlier, the colleagues from the office were still clamoring to receive compensation from

Melanie.

However, they were all worked up upon hearing Melanie’s grievances. They were

indignant and determined to seek justice for Melanie.

Even though everyone clearly saw Melanie on Bobby’s arm when they entered, that didn’t

deter them from seeking justice on her behalf.

They directed their anger on Caspian once again.

Thomas was the first one to rush over to Caspian. He pointed a finger at him and cursed,

“Caspian, you’re just garbage! Get out of our company! Your disgusting smell is ruining

the environment here at the office!

“A beautiful woman like Melanie is wasted on you. You don’t even know how to appreciate

a wonderful woman like her.”

He continued, “Even after the divorce, you hired an actress to show off in front of your ex-

wife. You even dared to claim that you have a billion dollars in assets! Why don’t you say

that you’re a billionaire’s long-lost son?”

After Thomas was finished, other colleagues surrounded Caspian and bombarded him with

insults.

The office was filled with shouts of vulgarity. It was as if Caspian had committed an

unforgivable crime.

Caspian looked around and his gaze landed on Bobby’s smug expression. He had a

gloating look on his one-eyed, pockmarked face.

Caspian remarked, “You’re all scolding me to suck up to Bobby, right? That’s because his

father is David Mason, the general manager of our company.

“Even when all of you knew that Melanie cheated on me with Bobby behind my back, you

didn’t dare to blame Bobby because of his father’s influence.

“All of you are bullies who only pick on the weak.

“That’s why I am being attacked mercilessly by everyone, with Thomas in the lead. Isn’t

that right?”

Caspian’s words pierced deeply into everyone’s hearts.

They raised their voices and rebuked him harshly.

The louder their accusations, the more convinced they were in their self-proclaimed roles

as arbiters of justice in the office.

After some time, Bobby held out his hand for everyone to quieten down.

The colleagues who had surrounded and accused Caspian fell silent.

With a smirk, Bobby came over to Caspian with a triumphant look on his face.

He went close to Caspian’s ear and whispered arrogantly, “You’re right. Thomas is my

lackey. It was my idea to have our colleagues ostracize and target you repeatedly. I did

this for one purpose, which was to win Melanie over!”

He continued, “I wanted to make her divorce a miserable deliveryman like you! Take a look

at yourself.

“Are you worthy of Melanie? A pathetic loser like you has no right to be with her! At this

moment, you must be so furious that you want to punch me. Come on, go ahead! Hit me!”

Taking a step back, Bobby pointed at Caspian and berated him mercilessly, “Caspian, my

car is the top model BMW Z4 sports car. It costs tens of thousands of dollars. I don’t care if

you have to sell your assets or your kidneys.

“Whatever it takes, get me a new one, and we will consider this matter settled. Otherwise,

I will report you to the police and escalate this problem. You might not even be able to get

out of jail after ten years!”

Thomas asked Melanie what happened to Bobby’s sports car. Eventually, the other

colleagues also knew about Bobby’s BMW sports car getting crushed into a sheet of metal.

Everyone started attacking Caspian verbally. Each of them was eager to get a word in as

the accusations against Caspian grew stronger and stronger.

Not long after, someone amongst the employees shouted, “Break it up, Ms. Stewart is

back!”

Everyone dispersed and returned to their desks.

They pretended to be busy at work, fingers clicking away at their keyboards.

“If you don’t get me a new car, get ready to be thrown in prison! Go on and show off, you

loser!” Bobby uttered a threat and returned to his own desk.

Amidst all this, Melanie didn’t look Caspian in the eye. She didn’t dare to meet his gaze.

She knew that her motive for being with Bobby was not because of love, but because he

had more money.

At the same time, she knew that Caspian was innocent. The accusations hurled by their

colleagues were not true. Melanie knew better than anyone else that every penny Caspian

earned was spent on her. What he received in return was betrayal. Melanie took the moral

high ground and twisted the truth. As a result, she turned the tables on Caspian in public.

Nonetheless, Melanie tried to console herself, “Melanie, you haven’t done anything wrong.

People are willing to die in the pursuit of money.

“It’s not your fault for wanting a better life.

“Caspian, that poor loser, just can’t measure up. He is facing the consequences of his own

doing!”

Caspian glanced at Melanie, who had a conflicted expression on her face. Then, he looked

at Bobby, who was staring daggers at him.

Lastly, he swept his gaze at Thomas and other colleagues who looked proud of

themselves. Caspian couldn’t help but smile.

He had led his soldiers of Diadem Hall to war at the borders and fought for the protection

of Diatoran’s people. He never expected that among those whom he protected were a

group of twisted individuals who corrupted the truth and looked down on the poor.

When Caspian was reminded of his men who had died on the battlefield, an angry smirk

appeared on his face.

Initially, he hadn’t planned on dealing with insignificant fleas like them, but they had

become too bothersome to ignore.

It was time to teach them a lesson.

Before long, Willow walked to the CEO’s office in her high heels. Caspian got up and

followed after her.

Thomas had a disdainful smile on his face when Caspian walked past. “Hey, the loser is

going to tattle to the boss again.”

Caspian reached out and grabbed onto the back of Thomas’ head. With a loud thud,

Thomas’ face was slammed into the desk.

Almost immediately, chaos erupted in the office.

“Bastard, if you want to continue working here, prepare that report for me right now. Any

later, I will make you work through the night until morning!”

With that, Caspian strode in the direction of Willow’s office.

The colleagues in the office were stunned.

Was he the same person as the loser, Caspian, who had no guts to stand up for himself?

At that moment, everyone had the feeling that Caspian had become a different person.

Melanie considered herself to be the person who knew Caspian best. Even she realized

that the Caspian she saw just now seemed inexplicably foreign to her.

The previous Caspian she knew was a loser who was always drenched in sweat. He wore a

dirty courier uniform that hadn’t been washed for days.

On the other hand, the Caspian at this moment exuded a commanding aura.

With his menacing glare, he looked like a mighty general going to battle, fully suited up in

shining armor.
