“Leave!?” Clayton sneered. “Who let you leave this place before me? You're too confident and I hate it.” He immediately moved forward and tried to grab Caspian’s shirt but Caspian acted fast and agile as he decisively moved away before Clayton could reach him. “I hate how proud you sound. But who am I to complain?” Caspian adjusted the collar of his shirt as he spoke. Disdain filled his voice. “Never in your entire life, try to touch me before even grabbing me. Don't make me let you regret it.” He warned. Clayton instantly felt insulted at once. This brat!! How did this good-for-nothing pretty face get the audacity to talk back at him? Is it because of his scholarship and useless achievements? Let's see how far he can go. His eyes blazed with evil intent as he chuckled. Clayton's face reddened with rage as he recalled the incident involving h Caddel which had caused him to be too embarrassed to go out with him. He knew he had to take revenge for Caddel if he wanted him
As they entered the karaoke bar, the group was immediately immersed in a sea of colorful lights and upbeat music. The air was electric with excitement, and the smell of snacks and drinks wafted through the air.Evie squealed with delight, grabbing Caspian's arm. “Oh, they have the most trending songs! Let's go sing it!”Caspian's eyes scanned the room, taking in the vibrant atmosphere.Caspian cheered her on. “Go for it, Evie! Show us your talent!”Evie shook her head, her eyes sparkling mischievously. “No way, I'm not singing alone. Caspian, come sing with me!”“Wait! Sing? No way I'm going up that stage to sing. No… no!”Caspian immediately disagreed. He did not know how to sing very well, and he found it a bit girlish and immature to be singing in Karaoke, filled with lots of girls and college students.Phineas and Alfred chimed in, “Yeah, Caspian, join her! Don't be shy.”Caspian rolled his eyes at them and, pointed at them in annoyance, “Why don't you both go sing with Evie since
“There,” the head cook said while pointing to a tray of food on the countertop. “Take that, and go serve the customers at table sixteen. I am not sure why you can not keep time. Do not make me lose customers; otherwise, you know what will happen.” She insulted him with a berating and threatening expression. Caspian could only nod and bow, humiliated. His life had been difficult since he dropped out of college a year ago. He was unable to secure a suitable, well-paying job. He worked multiple jobs throughout the day to support himself and his girlfriend. Caspian said nothing, knowing what could happen if he argued with the head chef. He took the tray from the counter and strode over to table number sixteen, which happened to be the same table where the wealthy young men were gathered. * Time passed, the wealthy young men paid for their meals, and they were ready to leave. “Hey, Caspian. Go get the other trash bag and take it to the garbage truck down the street,” The head chef c
After being beaten to a pulp, Caspian could only drag his miserable self to secretly take the cleaning tools from the canteen.He couldn't walk well and kept on limping to and fro like a handicap. After successfully parking out every single bit of dirt from the floor, he headed over to return the tools.He knew he could not go back to work like that. The cruel head chef will take the opportunity and fulfill her long-desired wish—to fire him.So he was quick to make a call to her. The phone rang several times before it was finally answered. Then came her annoyed voice. “Caspian, why can't you just give me peace for a moment? Why won't you stop calling?” She yelled.Caspian had to take the phone some distance away from his ears, as he thought her shouting would end up being detrimental to his hearing. He gulped and replied with a painful cry.“So sorry, Mrs. Hartford, I'm unable to return to the canteen today because I got attacked by a bunch of burly guys on the way.”Mrs. Hartford,
Seeing Clayton lying in the middle of the canteen with scattered chairs and tables around him, Caspian's eyes widened in astonishment.He felt energy surge in him, and his body felt light. His vision became clearer, and the pain from the fall became less painful.Caspian still couldn't comprehend what was going on with him. Suddenly, he hears a voice in his head. It sounded metallic and robotic.< < < Hearing the words in his head, Caspian felt he was hallucinating.However, at the same time, he received a ding notification on his small phone. Checking through the message, Caspian's jaw dropped.He rubbed his eyes, not believing what he was seeing. His almost zero-dollar account now has one million dollars.‘How is this even possible?’Caspian thought, still gazing at the number of zeros after the one.{System Tasking: Caspian To unlock more income for your account, You need to make Bully, Clayton Davis, stop swearing within the next twenty-four hours.Your reward for completing th
Caspian groaned and stood up from the ground. His legs hurt him badly and he was unable to stand properly on both feet as he continued what he was doing, ignoring Clayton's words. Mrs. Hartford got enraged at Caspian's attitude. Walking up to him as fast as her heels could carry her, she pulled his shirt from behind and landed him a slap on the face. “How much more shameless Could you be?” She yelled looking furious. “How dare you ignore your new Boss? Do they not teach you respect from the slump you were brought up in?”:She questioned, slapping him again on his other cheeks. Caspian felt his eyeballs roll. The hit wasn't something he had anticipated. “Mrs. Hartford if only you could stop being mean for a moment. I'm not feeling well today, I'm quiet just to save myself some energy” Caspian deadpanned. He made to move away from the stunned head chef. However, she grapes his shirt and glares furiously at him. “Do you mean replying to us is exhausting your strength? How d
Caspian turns and stares at Clayton. He did not think he was confident enough to make him stop saying abusive words.However, he could provoke him and then punch his face and bust his lips.That way, he won't be able to say abusive words. Caspian wasn't ready to lose this money coming his way.In his mind, he had already begun calculating the total amount of money that would be added to his account and how he was going to spend all of it.Caspian, as if he did not see Clayton bullying Jason, went and began cleaning up the canteen hall.From his side, he keeps his focus on Clayton to make sure he doesn't leave, as the System had only given him twelve hours to complete this new task.Diligently and carefully, Caspian cleans up the inner part of the hall until he gets to the door where Clayton is still standing and Berating Jason.Caspian drops the brush he is using to sweep, wipes his hands on his apron, and then raises his head to gaze at Clayton.Clayton scowled with knitted brows upo
Isaacson turned to Clayton with his brows raised in question, and he asked, “Son, does this have anything to do with this dumb brain?” Clayton did not for once hesitate to say what he had in mind. He hated his terrible state and couldn't wait to punish Caspian for what he had done. “No, Mr. Hartford, he did not. I unexpectedly fell down the stairs in the corridor. That got me these bruises. But it's fine; it won't take time before it'll heal,” Clayton replied. Isaacson nodded, and he sighed. “I'm truly sorry you have to encounter that at your canteen; I'll make sure the stairs are renovated. Rest assured, it won't happen again.” Isaacson said, and Clayton could only nod as he glowered with a grimace at Caspian. Caspian jubilated in his heart. His excitement could not even be hidden behind his expressionless face. “I feel sorry for him.” Caspian muttered; he continued to clean up the place and did not mind their emotional bantering. Finishing up his assigned cleaning duties, C
