The infinity card

"Richard Flair," he replied.

She walked back to him and looked at his fingers. "Can you show me your ring finger?"

"Huh?"

"Please show me your ring finger." Her voice was calm.

Richard looked at the people around, wondering if he could trust them to show his ring. Noticing how uncomfortable he was, Rachel walked closer and said to him.

"Don't worry, I am the only one aware of it."

He nodded and slowly pulled off the glove he wore, revealing the ring.

Seeing the black, shiny ring, Rachel's eyes widened. What her sister said was true, the ring of leadership was with the Delta clan.

"Let go of him immediately." She ordered to the securities, who obeyed her but not without sharing a glance.

"Offer him the best service you have never offered to anyone. Make him as comfortable as he can be," she said to the staffs, who were all filled with wonder.

The young man was almost thrown out of the bank few minutes ago, but it all turned around and they are been told to offer him their best services? Could he be her son or relative or a son of an influential man?

"I apologize for the embarrassment. I wasn't able to recognize you from the beginning. Please do not hold it against me my lord."

My lord? They began to murmur among themselves in awe. The all, proud and powerful Rachel Julius, called a young man 'lord'? They had a lot to ask but dared not voice it out.

"Are you guys deaf or something? Get to work immediately!" Rachel snapped, bringing them out of shock, as they all scurried away.

"Please come with me to my office. You shouldn't be standing here." She said politely, with a smile on her face.

She led the way back to the elevator while Ricky followed behind her. "My sister told me that you would be coming. I actually went outside to lead you back in but I got confused."

Ricky smiled, "Yeah. I wasn't dressed in expensive and designed suit."

They got to her office and sat down. Almost immediately, the door opened and one of the staff came in with a bottle of wine while the manager followed behind him.

"Ermm, you don't have to do all this really. I just need to give you my details and leave soon."

She shook her head, "You are the new leader. It is a pleasure serving you my lord. Just take a little gift from me. And also, you thought to open an account in my bank, this is more than I could ask for."

"Well, you've got Rina to thank. She recommended this bank."

She smiled proudly and took her gaze to the manager. "Mr Flair here will be opening an account with us. He is our very important customer and the infinity card should be given to him."

The manager's mouth dropped. The infinity? That card was only used by Rachel. It is the highest card and she doesn't give it to anyone.

There are three cards for the VIPs, with the golden being the highest but the infinity, higher and rare. The other two are the silver and bronze. They all cost alot of money to attain. Each card type represent the safe that would be given to it buyer and they all have different prices, with the golden card been the highest price.

"Ma'am, are you sure about this?" He dared to ask but got a glare as an answer.

Without been instructed again, he hurriedly left the office to go get his computer.

"I heard about the passing of Ben. He was a good leader to the Delta's but that was his destiny." she sighed and moved back. "You look young and unfamiliar. I am sure you aren't a big business tycoon or an important person, so how did you win?"

That was a crazy story. He wasn't meant to win, infact, Ben was the winner. Death was his fate but it got turned around and he was involved in the game somehow.

He accidentally won the game and was declared the king of the abyss.

"I guess Rina must have told you what to expect. Nothing on earth comes free. You declared the winner of the game sets you on a burning coal that would burn you up if you aren't careful." she took her gaze to his black ring, "Everyone set their eyes on that ring. Congratulations, you just signed up for a long time battle."

Richard's eyes were widened as she explained it more to him. He really did signed up for something dangerous and would soon dance to the tune.

The manager came back in, distracting them from their little chats. "I will need your fingerprint sir. It would serve as one of the passcodes to access your money," he said, bowing to the young man before him.

Richard stretched his hand. He suddenly remembered what had happened at the prison and what Mr Stallion revealed. He did know something about his parent and from what he said, he might be involved in their deaths. Rina wasn't ready to tell him which clan Mr Stallion was in.

He released a deep sigh and registered his fingerprints. Getting his name and information registered, he was done opening the safe.

"Thank you my lord for coming." Rachel stood up and bowed her head.

"You don't have to do that. You are way older than me."

She smiled and shook her head, "You shouldn't be too soft my lord. This is not a kingdom to be ruled with softness. You are dealing with prominent and powerful people here."

He nodded. "I know and that's why I will rule my own way."

His phone vibrated in his pocket. Bringing it out, he tapped on his school's department group chat and read the current messages silently which involved him of course.

'I heard that useless Richard is still coming back to school. His scholarship wasn't withdrawn. So sad.' A message reads.

'i hate to see his face. He is so annoying.' another reads.

Richard scrolled down, ignoring the rest. Getting to the last messages, his heart dropped.

'Jason was in school today. He looks so handsome as always.'

'Danica was also with him. Such good looking couples. I really hope they end up together, their kids would be beautiful.'

'I heard the both of them will be in school tomorrow.'

'A beautiful union that rat almost ruined.'

The rest was filled with laughing emojis.

Jason. Richard planned on speak to him about his parent and how they are involved. He needed to go back to school.

He hurried out of the bank after being greeted again by Rachel, and stood by the busy road. Dialing Rina's number, he placed it on his ear.

"Hello Rina, can the lesson for tomorrow be cancelled?"

"Do you have to ask? Just give an order and it shall be done immediately my lord. Also, you are meeting the lords of card tonight." she reminded.

Tonight?

"Will I get to see Mr Stallion too?"
