2025-01-07 20:21:30As Adrian Blood paid for the gift box, handing his old payment card to the cashier, he heard a voice behind him.
"Oh! Look who it is! The scholarship student!" He turned around to see Ricardo Rodriguez and his pack of friends. They didn't like him one bit, he didn't like them either but he'd rather just stay out of trouble. "Hey pauper. What are you doing here?" They came closer. "This store is quite very expensive for people like you. I don't think you can afford anything they sell here." Ricardo Rodriguez was the richest kid in Ravendale University and he liked to show off his wealth. He also liked to talk down on the likes of Adrian who was finding it hard to pass by. Before he used to just ignore Adrian, saying that a low life like him was not worth his breathe of attention. But ever since he found out Adrian was the one dating Teresa Williams, the most beautiful girl in the university, he wouldn't let him be. He took every chance to disrespect and humiliate him. "Is that a gift box? How cute. Don't tell me you're getting this for Teresa." "Do you think she will accept that? Looks pretty cheap to me." One of his friends added, the rest laughing. "So you came into this huge store to get something this worthless? How unshameful can you be, bro?" Another retorted. Ricardo put an arm on Adrian's shoulder. "You know, bro. I hate the likes of you. Nerds, book smart, bookworm. Everything in the brain but nothing in the pocket. You don't deserve Teresa. She belongs to someone like me. It will do you better if you stay away from her from now on. If you do that, I'll pay you a thousand dollars. What do you say?" What now? He was trying to buy Adrian away from his girlfriend? That too for a thousand dollars? Did he think Adrian was that petty just because he was having a hard time? "No thank you!" He refused, not even sparing Ricardo and his gang a stare. The cashier returned Adrian's card. "You can go now sir. Thank you for shopping with us." "Shopping?" They laughed. "He probably bought the cheapest thing out here. See how dirty that thing is, how do you even do business with that?" Ignoring their taunts and laughter, he walked out of the supermarket, avoiding a conflict. Afterall he knew if anything happened, he was probably going to prison while the rich man's son will be let off freely. He knew better than to fall in their trap. He had always ignored them, he would keep ignoring them. As long as Teresa and him kept loving each other. Adrian sped away with his belongings. He had to reach home on time. He had to change into better wears. Tonight was a special night and he had to make it unforgettable. For Teresa, for his love. * As Adrian paid the driver and they drove away, he turned around to behold the unimaginable beauty of the venue. It was unlike any party he had ever seen. It was even crazier to think that all these was organized by the student body, headed by Ricardo Rodriguez. Ricardo Rodriguez, the son of Federico Rodriguez, one of the wealthiest men in the city. He was one of those kids who never had to do anything for money in their life, yet they had it in vast abundance. Unlike Adrian who had to work three jobs part time plus school work before he could buy a diamond necklace for Teresa. He took another look at the beautifully wrapped present. He was going to present it to her in front of everyone. Almost every student would be present. In the eyes of everyone, he planned to finally make their relationship official. Yes they had been hanging out for three years and anyone would decode that they were together, but they never really announced our relationship. "I can't wait to see the smile on your face, Teresa." He smiled to himself as he imagined her beautiful face in his mind. Crystal eyes, cute lips, she was all he ever wanted. The only person who didn't look down on him for being a scholarship student. Adrian checked his phone to see if Teresa had replied his message on Snapchat yet. She hadn't even viewed it yet. Maybe she had been busy all day so he decided to call her before heading in. 'The number you have called is not responding. You can try again later.' Dang. He should just go in and check on her. As he made his way into the brightly decorated edifice, Adrian's eyes dangled in every direction, searching around for Teresa. "Hey, have you seen Teresa?" He saw Lily, one of her mates from the department. "Ohh yesss... I think she went through that door..." She said nonchalantly, pointing in the direction of an open door. It was obvious she didn't want to talk to Adrian. She considered him a stain, worthless. He was surely unworthy of Teresa's love. She hoped Teresa would get rid of him soon. Lily's directives led deeper into the club. "Alright thank you." He passed briskly through there, not bothering to read the large and shining inscription just by the doorway. Emerging at a different room, ten times more beautiful than the other one, he searched around for Teresa again. As he moved around, he could feel the eyes of disgust shooting lasers at him. Everyone who saw him sneered. "Oh... This loser!" "Who let him in?" "Even the cleaners look better than this! No way he could have afforded a ticket." "Yea... His girlfriend must have paid for him." His appearance was in complete contrast to every single person in this special room. They all glittered while he stood ordinary even though he had picked his best outfit for this occasion. Yet he couldn't waste his time minding their annoyance. He just needed to find Teresa. "Not her... Not her... There she is!" Adrian recognized her beautiful red hair from behind. Teresa was seated beside the figure of an unknown man, and they seemed deep in conversation. "Excuse me sir, this place is reserved for VIP guests only." He heard a voice come behind him, but he was already walking towards Teresa. "Just a minute please. I just need to..." The words stuck in his throat as his legs stopped to move. The man beside Teresa was Ricardo Rodriguez and he was kissing his girlfriend in public, while she was cuddling up to him as he touched her in inappropriate places.

"Teresa?!" Adrian finally found his voice, but he had to mention her name one more time before she could notice his presence. And even then, she didn't seem to care."Oh... Adrian". She mumbled nonchalantly."What are you doing?" He was unsure of what else to say. His eyes were shooting red already, he couldn't believe what he was seeing."Making out with my new boyfriend," she faced him again, smiling flirtingly. He could see Ricardo's face under the bright lights above them. He had an evil smirk printed all around, as if he had been waiting patiently for this day. He was the ladies man, the dream of every girl. And now, Adrian's Teresa included. Adrian still could not believe it. He had thought that even if every girl swoon over the Italian kid for his father's money, Teresa would certainly be different. Was he wrong all along?"But... Us..." He stammered and staggered, eyes fixed on Teresa. She only burst into a wild laughter which brought silence to the room as everyone directed

He looked like a very rich fellow, and the guards seemed to respect him as he walked towards them."But sir...""No buts", he interrupted, raising his right hand in the air.

Ricardo Rodriguez was spending the rest of the night with his new girlfriend, celebrating his amazing past few months when his phone rang up."Why are you disturbing me?" He knew it was his friend, Doctor Lewis, but this was not the best time to call him. He was in the middle of such nice time, Teresa's titties bouncing on his lips. Now this nerd had come to ruin it."We have a problem." Lewis said through the phone."This problem so big it can't wait till tomorrow?" Ricardo moaned as Teresa began to blow him slowly."It is your sister." Lewis seemed to be whispering over the phone."What? She finally died?" Ricardo urged Teresa to go faster as he closed his eyes in pleasure."No. She actually recovered."Ricardo's two eyes shot open in shock. "What did you say?""Lyana recovered. And now she's awake."With a violent push, Ricardo threw Teresa against the bed. Then he put on a robe and paced around the room in annoyance."How did this happen, Lewis? You had just one job!""It was all

The university was not the best place to be today. From the very first minute that Adrian laid foot into the environment, the toxicity of the atmosphere stiffened his breathe tight. Every person who saw him would giggle or frown or shake their heads before deeping their faces back into their phone screens. It didn't take long to realize something was going on."What is going on?" He wondered. "Is this because of what happened last night?"Of course the entire school was present when Ricardo had his boys ship him out like unwanted cargo many hours ago. Everyone who witnessed it was eager to make fun of him, like Mrs Huddersfield and Billy. But there was more with the way they all looked at him. Like some criminal who had committed a grievous crime. There must be something more going on around here."Hey system", he whispered. "Can you help me out here?""Absolutely!" The system voice chimed in his head.

"What are you doing here?"Adrian couldn't believe this. Teresa was right there all along and the school authority allowed her to listen in on their conversation? She was just a student like every other person, why allow her such admonition?"Well, Miss Williams is the victim in this case. She surely deserves the liberty of presence through the entire hearing."More like Ricardo had paid his way through to allow her interfere in this interrogation. That way they could make sure Adrian lost completely. Why else was she all dolled up like a wedding bride?"This monster tried to rape me. He should be in a prison somewhere now, I can't even bear to look at him. He is terrifying." She pointed her fingers at him while keeping a safe distance, as though he was some vicious threat she shouldn't be anywhere around."What are you talking about? I even bought you a present for Valentine, why would I try to force myself on you?""Because I rejected you."Adrian was silent for a while. She did rej

Although he was unable to prove the terrible allegations as vile and false, he was able to give them something to think about. He enjoyed watching their faces go blue, especially Donald McMahon, he nearly lost his balance in shock. Teresa looked as if she had seen a ghost, she could not speak another word till Adrian walked out in all calmness.

Adrian's head banged loud at the urgency of the situation. He had to save Ricardo's sister again? He already saved her life last night? Why was her life already in danger again? Now he had to abandon the search for his father?"It is your choice, Adrian. Do you want to continue with the filler mission, or you would like to take on this one instead?

The Culinary was not only the most respected food centre in the entire city, it was also the biggest edifice that screamed of nutrition. Anyone within the borders of Ravendale would most likely see the giant fish which swam on the peak roof of the giant sky scrapper. It was marvellous and it was a miracle. Adrian Blood had always wondered how it felt like to be welcome at such a place. The workers are usually friendly to the rich people and hostile to the ones who were below the chain of wealth. Adrian used to be below the chain of wealth but not anymore. The story was now different.

"What the hell do you want, Trevor?"Trevor Steele hurried and reached back for the cellphone. He held it tight to the ears."Beth... Bethany...?" His voice broke and shook. He trembled at the sound of her voice. He claimed that he was over her, but he was still very much attracted to her. Even the ordinary sound of her voice was enough to make him shake so badly. He was such a weak man, such a pervert."I said, what do you want from me?""I... I made some money." He said. "I want to spend it all on you... If you come to the culinary tonight, then...""What do you think I am, Trevor? A fool?" She cut him off cruelly. "Everybody knows you were disowned by your parents.

Ricardo Rodriguez and his father were a long way away from home. A specially built edifice on the very edge of the world, it was the most mysterious place in the universe.As impressive as this location was, nothing came close to the caliber of men who were in attendance. The most powerful men all across the world. The richest men in China, India, Korea, Singapore, and even the United States of America. Ricardo had never seen so many men of influence in one room, and here he was among them."Who is the kid?" An old voice said. The face of the speaker, Ricardo could not see. The man sat far away at the top and above everybody else. No matter how powerful the men present were, this person seemed to be their absolute boss.

Adrian found the house where the party had taken place. He checked every room, every corner. He screamed Helena's name. He called for George too. There was no response. There was nobody in the building. For a place where a party was supposed to have taken place only a few minutes ago, it looked as empty and as silent as a graveyard."Where is my sister?" He asked the system.The system chimed. "If you are summoning your reward for past missions, then you will have to declare that to me, CEO Blood.""Yes I am.

Over there were two people walking in his direction. "Uncle! Helena!!" When he got to them, he saw that they were both okay. Although in Helena's eyes, there were traces of weakness."What happened?"

I was chosen by the deeper circle for a reason, and it did not include wealth."James Halton sighed. He could not speak out of turn in front of this person, but he needed to secure a deal.
