Amanda dragged her wedding dress along as she approached Devin, her face twisted with anger.

“Have you come to ruin my big day? Why are you doing this to me?” Amanda cried out.

“You're doing this on purpose, aren't you? Just because I upgraded from your pathetic ass?” She screamed at him.

“Seriously? Upgrade to marrying a man old enough to be your dad?” Devin said to her face, and she scoffed.

“Who is this man to the bride?”

“How do they know each other?”

“Shut your fucking mouth! This is the last time you raise your hands on my family!” Amanda screamed at Devin who scoffed.

“I never wanted to be here anyways. Have a great wedding,” Devin said with sarcasm, and turned to leave, but Amanda suddenly blocked his path.

"Kneel down and apologize! Otherwise, I won't let you walk out of here alive, you son of a bitch!" Amanda yelled at Devin who laughed at her words.

“You are digging your own fucking grave!” Devin shot back at her.

Amanda flushed with anger. Just as she was about to reply, Luther approached the pair with a shrewd smile on his face.

“Come on now, darling. Let's be kind to the man. He's already going through shit in life…” Luther said to Amanda, kissed her on the cheek and then turned to Devin.

“Tell you what Devin, why don't you slap yourself until she tells you to stop? At least, your worn out knees wouldn't need to contaminate the floor,” Luther proposed with a smile.

Devin gritted his teeth while he gazed at the pair.

“He should do it. A lowlife like him doesn't belong here anyway.” A guest suddenly said out loud.

“I've been saying this! These degenerates do not know their place. How dare he cause such trouble. He should slap himself until the bride is satisfied!” Another one joined in.

“If you have any shred of dignity left, you will apologize right now!”

Soon, more and more guests added their voices, yelling and cursing Devin, telling him to do what Luther and Amanda wanted.

“Everyone, please, let's just calm down. Mr Devin didn't do this on purpose. I can assure you,” Kia begged on Devin's behalf but Amanda scoffed.

“Girl, he's playing you for a fool and you're falling for it. Abandon him and let him burn!” Amanda snapped at Kia.

“Don't waste your words with them, Kia,” Devin told her as more guests pointed their fingers at Devin, yelling and cursing him.

“Oh God, what are you going to now, Devin?” Kia asked him, genuinely concerned.

Devin sneered and calmly took out his phone, he pressed a number.

“Young master, what's with the noise in the background!” Yvonne Hall on the other end of the line asked.

“Cancel this fucking wedding and kick these people out of my auditorium!” Devin commanded and hung up immediately.

Luther laughed out loud when he heard the words. He snorted and stepped closer to Devin.

“You've gone mad, haven't you? Do you think of yourself as a big shot now? You must want to be in MY world so bad that you fake connections!” Luther laughed again.

“You never should have forced me to come in here, Luther. Now, you'll have nothing,”

Devin sneered, while he folded his arms and watched the farce.

But Luther didn't take the words so kindly.

“I've tolerated your foul-mouth for so long. It's time I teach you a lesson your loser of a father should have taught you!”

Luther barked and signaled his personal bodyguards to the scene.

All five of them rushed down, wearing a frown on their faces.

“Teach him a lesson he'll never forget. Don't hold back. I don't care if you break every fucking bone in his body!” Luther commanded and took a step back while the bodyguards surrounded Devin.

But as soon as they closed in, a massive wave of energy surged from Devin's body and the bodyguards, slamming them into walls with bone crushing force!

"What a goddamn amazing clown show! I'm scared shitless!"

Devin adjusted to a more comfortable stance, his defiant gaze boring right into Luther.

The guests exclaimed, and Luther was shocked.

Kia gazed upon Devin with admiration, certain she was starting to fall for him.

“Guess I'll have to finish this myself!” Amanda cried out as she suddenly aimed Luther's gun at Devin.

The guests gasped as Amanda, determined, holds her aim.

“If you do not apologize to me and my family, I'll blow your fucking brains out right now!” She screamed at Devin.

The air hung with tension as Devin remained silent.

But Amanda suddenly fired the gun. The guests screamed and scurried into places to hide as the bullet hit the door.

Devin had dodged it!

“Why won't you just fucking die?!” Amanda screamed and attempted to take a second shot.

But right then, the door was blasted open with a huge bang. The bodyguards at the door were kicked aside by a mob of black - clad guys.

A smoking-hot woman walked in.

It was Yvonne Hall!

    “Who dares to cause trouble in my territory?” Yvonne Hall's voice boomed as her bodyguards encircled the auditorium, holding their rifles close to their chests. Luther's lips parted in surprise when he saw Yvonne. “Yvonne’s the richest person in New York. Did my lie about us being close just manifest into reality?” he snickered. “If she's here to greet me, I must take advantage of this,” Luther thought to himself. With a smile and egoistic chuckle escaping his lips, Luther took steady steps towards Yvonne, stretching his hands as if to give her a hug. The guests who immediately recognized Yvonne murmured amongst themselves, "I didn't really expect Luther to have such a relationship with Yvonne..." "Yeah! I know right? Luther is simply amazing. He keeps surprising us!" When Sera heard the whispers, she beamed with pride while Luther approached Yvonne. “My daughter's really marrying a capable man!” Sera thought to herself, smiling even wider as Jim snug close to he

    "Yvonne, if I've ever make a good impression on you, don't do this to me! You'll humiliate me!" Luther begged Yvonne while Devin just stood on the spot, watching the drama unfold. "I wasn't asking," Yvonne replied to Luther coldly. Luther looked around for support, but the same cold, glaring eyes of the guests were all he found. Gritting his teeth, he fell to his knees before Devin. "I am sorry for everything, Devin--" "Bow! And he's your master!" Yvonne snapped at him as she cut him off. Luther nearly choked at the amused look on Devin's face. He faced the ground and bowed before Devin. "Forgive me, Master," he begged. "Tell him how foolish you've been," Yvonne reinforced, crossing her arms. The guests whispered amongst themselves as Luther humiliated himself even further. "I've been a fool, master. forgive me!" he begged, his voice breaking with shame. "Good. Now, crawl out of this place like an animal!" Yvonne added. Without saying another word, Luther crawled o

    The banquet was a grand thing to behold. Devin drove into the event center and walked into the building, not gathering any special attention with the modest suit he was wearing. Devin wanted to encounter the board members first to know what kind of people they were. “Young Master. You're here!” Dreykov called out to him as he approached with a bunch of other bodyguards, but Devin waved his hand to hush them. “Let's keep the formalities under wraps for now. Treat me as a regular guest,” he replied to Dreykov who was honestly confused but nodded. “Yes, Young master- sorry- Devin-” Dreykov quickly corrected himself. Devin gave him a nod and walked inside. The evening's festivities began with a champagne reception, where guests sipped fine wines and beverages while enjoying the melodic strains of a live-string quartet. The music was a perfect accompaniment to the lively chatter and laughter that filled the room. But as soon as Devin stepped into the hall, he heard whispers com

    “A common waiter dared to steal from me? You must not like your pathetic life anymore!?” Terrence yelled at Devin again, who just stood looking at him.“Yeah. How dare you, douchebag? Don't you know your fingers can be cut off if you steal from Boss Terrance?” The Foreman suddenly chipped in while he rose to his feet.Devin chuckled.“This loser's obviously playing you for a fool. He's the one who stole your gift, not me,” Devin replied to Terrance and crossed his arms.“He wants to have your favor by all means. It's as clear as day,” Devin added. The Foreman gasped.“Lies! This is defamation. I only took the gift to stop this animal from stealing it. And now you fucking dare to lie against me?”The Foreman rolled up his sleeves.“I'll teach you a fucking lesson!” He snapped at Devin and hurled at him, but Devin grabbed his hands, twisted them, and kicked him to the ground.The Foreman fell on a table and it shattered. With a bleeding nose, he stood up.“That's it! I'm fucking firing

    “No… wait… please! I'm begging you!” Terrence fell on his knees before Devin, gripping his trousers. “Have mercy!” He begged again. “You have forfeited your shares due to your insolence!” Elijah said again and then turned to the bodyguards. “Get this clown out of here!” “No! Please! You can't do this to me…” Terrence cried as the bodyguards, the same ones he instructed to beat Devin up, dragged him out ruthlessly. The Foreman thought he was safe and wanted to run, but Elijah pointed to him. “Beat this one up!” He commanded, as before the Foreman could run, bodyguards grabbed him and beat him to the pup. He cried and begged as they dragged him out of the hall. Everyone was silent. They knew Elijah was not to be messed with, but the way Devin composed himself without wincing told them he, too, had a brave heart. “Mr Markus. Thank you for speaking up against such injustice earlier,” Devin said to Markus who smiled. “It was my pleasure to help, young master,” Markus said wi

    After returning home that night, Devin felt his body temperature rising as soon as he stepped into his mansion. He took a deep breath as countless energy surged wildly inside his body, as if it was about to burst out of his body. Devin let out a groan. He quickly wore the necklace left to him by his mother, and the restlessness gradually subsided. When he opened his eyes again, Devin felt that his body was full of strength. The surge was gone, and so was the turbulence. “What was that?” Devin whispered and turned to go into his suite. But as he casually slapped his hand on the wall, Devin leaves a palm print there, without his notice. *** But for Kia, ever since the incident at Luther's wedding, she has been confined at home. “You can't keep me locked up in here, stepmother. I did my best!” Kia argued her case as her stepmother, Rhea, approached her in the living room. “Your best? Kia your best doesn't mean shit!

    “Who the fuck do you think you are? Huh? I've been patient with you for so long!” Gloria yelled at Kia. “Aunt Gloria, give me my phone please!” Kia demanded but Gloria placed the phone inside her purse. Kia reached in and took it back. “Malcolm is the man that will save this family. Now, I don't give a fuck whether you have a boyfriend or not. You're marrying Malcom and that is fucking final!” Gloria yelled again and Rhea laughed. “Yes, Kia. We don't give a fuck about your fantasies. No one does. You are a vessel that will bring money to this family. You're getting married whether you like it or not!” Rhea added. “You can't decide my life for me!” Kia protested. “We just did!” Gloria shot back at her. Kia turned to her father for support again but Ben looked away. “I can only stop this if your boyfriend is doing better than Malcolm. I'm sorry Kia,” he told her. As tears fell from Kia's face, Malcolm proceeded to wipe them off with his stinky hands. “Don't worry, love. I w

    Malcolm trudged to Devin with a frown on his face. But at that point, Devin was getting irritated by his attitude. “The man you just mentioned is my boss. How dare you defame my boss by hiring someone to pretend to be him?” “I should lock your sorry ass up in jail for this disgusting and shameless behavior!” Malcolm snapped at Devin. “Why don't you just shut the fuck up, man?” Devin snapped at him but Rhea reacted. “Don’t talk to him that way! Is he right? Did you really pay someone to pretend to be Henry Blake?” She asked. “I did not!” Devin replied to her but Gloria cackled. “Even now, the shameless idiot still has the guts to lie. It's obviously a scam, to deceive us!” Gloria chipped in. “Is this the kind of man you want to spend the rest of your life with? A pathetic liar and a cheat?” She asked Kia who flushed with embarrassment. “He was obviously trying to show off with wealth that he doesn't have- affluence that he'll never bag in the rest of his pathetic life-”

    “Petra Knight. This is a pleasant surprise,” Devin said as he picked up his phone. He just stepped out of the police station to review any case files regarding the egg.“Really? Weren't you at least curious to hear my voice again?” She asked him in a flirtatious voice.“Have you forgotten that we are betrothed?” She asked again and Devin sighed.“I thought we were past that now,” he said and got into his car.“I don't think we will ever be past that, Devin. You've impressed me. And I'm not easily impressed,” she said.“Look, Petra. You are a lovely lady. Beautiful, successful, and simply amazing. But I am in love with someone else. And I don't want to break up with her,” Devin told her but Petra scoffed.“Spend a night with me first and you'll see I'm really worth the shot,” she propositioned. Devin's lips curled into a smile.“I'm not doing that. Why did you really call me, Petra?” He asked her. By that time, his car came to a stop in the traffic. His fingers tapped the steering ligh

    The prison door buzzed and Luther walked through to the phone booth. His eyes lit up with intrigue when he saw the visitor he had that afternoon, a person he never thought he'd see.“Well well, who do we have here? Did the wind blow you into this place or something?” He chuckled as he took his seat.Vera smirked, gracefully picking up the telephone. “It is good to see you, husband. They're not treating you as badly as I would have hoped. By now, I expected you to be nothing more than bones and sores,” she said with a bright smile on her face.“Yeah, bitch? Well, lucky for me, I did what I always do. Played my cards right. You know, when you're finally in prison, you might want to try that,” Luther replied to her with a smirk.Vera chuckled, brushing the hair off her face. “This is your space, Luther. Enjoy it. I can never be in there with you,” she told him and leaned back.Luther's smile faded slowly. “So, why the fuck have you come? I didn't see you at my trial. You refused to send

    “Ma'am! I didn't see you coming,” the assistant said to Vera who still held her hand in the mid-air, clenching it tight.“Is this how you go about harassing people just because you work for me?” Vera asked her, but the assistant muttered.“No, ma'am. It's not what you think. The fucker started it!” The assistant accused but Vera pushed her hand off.The assistant staggered back and nearly fell. “And now you're still fucking lying to me? How daft do you think I am?” Vera yelled at her.“Apologize to him. Now!” She added.The assistant baited her eye, glancing at Devin.“But ma'am, he should be the one to apologise. He even said hurtful things to me,” the assistant argued but Vera cut her off.“Apologize or you lose your fucking job!” She yelled at the assistant. Terrified of losing her job, the assistant bowed her head before Devin.“I'm sorry for what happened, sir. It will not repeat itself,” she said but Vera frowned.“Apologize on your knees,” she said to the assistant who gasped.

    “What is it?” Luther asked her. Lila sighed while she quickly looked for a place to park her car.“Are you interested in making an investment? I promise it'll give back everything you've ever lost!” She said to him.“What sort of investment?” “An egg. Rumour has it the egg has magic. Apparently, there are people in our world called cultivators and the egg can grant them a boost in their powers,” Lila explained.On the other side of the phone, Luther's eyes opened wide while he listened to her explaining.“If it's true, and I can gift this egg to King Viper, then I'll be able to get him to do anything for me in the Future,” he thought to himself.“How much are we talking about?” He asked her.“Well, millions… but that is not even the issue right now. The museum where we stole, well, took it from, they're looking for the egg.”“And they've asked Devin to find it,” she added.Luther frowned when she mentioned Devin's name.

It's not the first time she's humiliated herself like this.”“Isn't she the shameless bride that got kicked out of her own wedding?”More and more comments followed, and Amanda gave Lila the phone.“I should have them take this down. How dare they!” Lila pouted, and she looked at Amanda with a conceited heart. “I mean, they're saying all these nasty things about you. We have to stop this,” Lila said again. “Don't bother. It won't change anything,” Amanda replied to her and drank from the bottle of gin in her hand. Lila looked pleased to see Amanda so fucked up, but she pretended like she cared.She sat down beside Amanda and gently touched her hair, kissing her.“

    “I didn't bring her in here. She came here by herself,” Devin stated while looking at Mr Simon.“Liar! Fucking liar! Even now that he's caught, he's still lying. Just confess your indiscipline and disrespect to Mr Simon. Fall on your knees and ask for forgiveness,” Mr Taylor yelled again.“Why should I when I'm innocent?” Devin asked Mr Taylor and crossed his arms. By that time, Miriam had covered herself with the cloak again, and she was waiting by the sofa.“Devin, did you really bring her here to sleep with her?” Mr Simon asked Devin.“No, I didn't. That's her. You can ask her,” he replied calmly.“He's not even sorry for what he did. Disrespecting a top shot like Mr Simon is an offense that deserves a beating. You should be ashamed of yourself!” Mr Taylor accused further.“How's the nose? Seems it's better now that you're running your mouth!” He said to Mr Taylor who gritted his teeth.And then, Mr Simon turned to Miriam.“I want you to tell me the truth. Did Devin call for your a

You can't come in here without an invitation. Did you fucking cheat your way into this hotel?” He yelled again.Devin didn't want to waste any words on him. He was silent while Mr Taylor kept speaking.“I should get the security men to drag your lazy ass out of here. Deceiving people and thieving is a character we do not appreciate in this place!” He added.But Devin, completely unfazed by his threats, walked closer to the receptionist in the lobby.“Hey! Get back here. I'm talking to you, fuckface!” Mr Taylor yelled again. She gave Devin a kind smile while her eyes darted from him to Mr Taylor. Devin could see that he made her uncomfortable.“How may I hel

    “He shouldn't have taken the deal. Now he's going to be humiliated,” “Yes! He should have gone to prison with what's left of his integrity,”“What if he has no integrity. He's a shameless thief without abilities, remember? What can he do?”Devin heard the whispers as he approached the convulsing man. He knelt beside him and stretched forth his hand.He could see the red weaves surrounding the man, the way they shone and fluttered.The man was losing the fight.“Devin, you don't have to do this. Just wait for the ambulance to get here,” Lizzy said to him.“He'll be dead by the time they get here. I have to act now,” Devin replied to her. He placed both hands on Simon's body and closed his eyes, allowing his energy to siphon into Simon.At first, nothing happened. Simon kept convulsing.

Payment of ten million dollars successfully completed!’Lizzy froze on the spot when she saw the notification.
