Adrian walked into the store with a confidence that touched the skies. He approached the store handler who kept her gaze away at once, wearing an expression of disgust."What do you want?" She sighed when she realised Adrian had stopped in front of her. Adrian recognized her too. She was the one who sold the gift box to her on valentine's day. When he had come to purchase a very cheap gift for his girlfriend in this massively elegant store and everyone scorned him, she was the only one who was warm to him. How come she was so cold now?"There is nothing for you to buy here. We don't sell your cheap items anymore." She cursed sharply, eyeing him from head to toe."I am not here to buy cheap items." Adrian responded in kind. He was no longer unsure of himself like he used to be. He was now going to be the wealthiest man in the world no matter the circumstances, a simple store handler was nothing to push him around."I want the most expensive collection of outfits you have ever held in t

"It doesn't seem you are getting any money from your family, Trevor. Why not just do as promised and let us all go on our way? Everyone is waiting." The night was going so well for Adrian. This was the best revenge so far.Everyone around had brought out their phones to record. Adrian remembered just a few nights ago when Trevor had been the one recording. He was the main instigator who urged Ricardo Rodriguez on to humiliate Adrian completely. For so many years, Trevor had tried to make friends with Ricardo but he was out of his league. So he supported anything the Italian kid did especially when it came to the oppression of the less privileged. This would only be a taste of his own medicine."No... No... I can't do this..."Trevor looked around, security was here. Every customer in the shop had their cameras out for a live stream. They wanted to see him flat on the floor so he could be walked on."Be fast and do it, you were the one who made the rules, remember?" Someone said."We a

"A scholarship student at the Ravendale University has been accused of attempted rape. Earlier today, a video became viral on social media as a University girl identified as Teresa Williams took to the internet to report a case of sexual violence. The perpetrator who is a student on a paid scholarship, by the name Adrian Blood was..."Adrian shut down the in-car entertainment system with rage. Teresa's lies about him was spreading far and far in no time. By tomorrow, he would be under questioning by the police. Maybe they were already at his home by now, ready to arrest him. "Fuck!"He had to survive, at least for this one night. If he could make it tonight, if he could form a bond with Lyana Rodriguez, then Rodrigo and Teresa would soon have themselves to blame for framing him.Adrian rolled with speed. He still had not changed into the suit yet, he had to do that somehow before he reached the location. He considered dropping at home but he dismissed the idea, not wanting to risk an

Adrian Blood was on his way to the dinner party hosted by the Rodriguez family when the system gave him new information."Following your actions tonight in response to the confrontations from Trevor Steel, Mrs Huddersfield and Billy Huddersfield, I would like to inform you that you have completed a massive record of faceslapping missions. NOW, YOU HAVE JUST ONE MORE MISSION TO LEVEL UP FROM ANCHOR STATUS!"Adrian was satisfied at that. He had not gone through all that trouble for nothing. He had taken advantage of the situation and completed more filler missions, and he was even going to be rewarded for that as well."YOUR REWARD IS RIGHT HERE!" The system announced. A white box appeared before Adrian, glowing. There was a human handprint at the front of the box."What is this?""This is the Salphinx box. It belonged to Sebastian Waters.""My father?""It contains a power you cannot imagine, and only you can open it."Adrian thought for a moment. He had always wanted to know who his f

Inside the mighty hall, Adrian was welcomed to a noble world he had never before witnessed in his humble life. If he thought that the valentine party organized by Ricardo was a thing of beauty, then he was wrong. Every single thing around him spoke of class and honour, wealth and plenty. The people, a crown upon it all. They were important dignitaries whose face any ordinary man would only see behind the screens of a television and never behold in real life. Yet Adrian was right there among them, and he was no different. As much as he admired the riches around, he could catch the stare of the high class ladies as they focused on him. Maybe it was his suit, glowing in beauty, that attracted them. Or maybe it was his modified features. At this rate, he didn't have to look for Lyana. She would notice him herself, as did every other lady.Regardless of it all, Adrian knew he had come here for a purpose, and he needed to stay on track. He had to focus."Hey System, I need to listen to the
