DEVIN STONE: Rise of the Billionaire Magnate CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
That evening, Devin strolled out to the city to get Kia some Jewelry. He had heard about a five-million-dollar necklace called The Emerald Bed that was on display and wanted to buy it for her. On getting to the high-class mall, Devin attempted to go inside, but the security man at the door pushed him back. “Hey! Back up! Where the fuck do you think you're going? We don't give alms today,” He asked Devin while standing in a way to make him look more imposing. “I'm not a beggar. I'm going in, like every other customer here,” Devin told him but the security man laughed. “You must be out of your fucking mind. We don't allow trash bags in this mall. Fuck off before I kick you out of here myself!” He snapped at Devin again who frowned at him. What the man did not know was that Devin and the owner of the mall were long-time friends. Her husband once worked with Devin in construction before he won the lottery and built the mall. “For your own good, get out of the way and let me in,

Lizzy, a bit uncertain, decided to take Devin to see the necklace just so he'd be satisfied.I know he can't purchase it. But If he can see it, maybe he'll be satisfied,” she said to herself.“Alright then…” she beamed with a smile. “Follow me,” she told himDevin simply followed her as she led him into the VIP aspect of the mall. There, a lot of beautiful jewelry was on display, ranging from diamonds to gold and pearls.“This necklace, The Emerald Bed, was said to be worn by a Queen in the 16th century. It was lost for a time before it suddenly turned up in the black market. Other than it being a huge investment for my mall, it is also the most expensive thing I have,”“That is why I can't sell it for less than five million dollars. I hope you understand, Devin,” she told him, wishing she'd see why she couldn't sell to him at a cheaper rate.Within her, Lizzy wasn't even certain Devin had up to two hundred dollars to make a purchase. But she was willing to give him a necklace of five

“Oh, now the fucker's getting on my nerves!” Mr Taylor said in both anger and bewilderment. Lizzy, determined to this done and over with, imputed the ten million dollars in the computer.“You have guts. I must say. When this is over, and you're drooling in your shame, maybe I'll consider giving you a job as a cleaner in my company, just to help out your miserable, dreamful life,” Mr. Taylor told Devin.Devin didn't want to waste any more words with him. He kept quiet as Lizzy carried out the transaction. Then she called him for his pin and he imputed it.With skepticism, she pressed the ‘done’ button. And she barely even initiated the transaction when she got the notification.'Congratulations! Payment of ten million dollars successfully completed!’Lizzy froze on the spot when she saw the notification. Her eyes darted from the computer screen to Devin, who stood there with his arms crossed.“Ha! The transaction was an epic failure, wasn't it? I knew it! Now this useless brat will be

“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. And then, all of a sudden, he let out a cry like a roar and fainted.“D-did you just fucking kill him? Oh my God! What the fuck did you do?” Mr Taylor yelled at Devin as people murmured nervously.Lizzy

“There's no way in fucking hell! Who let you in here?” Mr Taylor yelled at Devin as soon as he stepped into the five-star hotel with lots of beautiful lighting and furniture.Devin had returned to the hotel that night to see Simon and while he admitted the tapestry of the building, Mr Taylor showed up.“I'm fucking talking to you. 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

“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

“Amanda, I think you should see this!” Lila, Amanda's best friend rushed to show her a video of her crawling like a pig in the airport. Amanda's blood ran cold when she saw the nasty remarks that the people were making on the video.“She's such a disgusting pig. Nothing would ever make me do this!”“She's super shameless. 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.“

“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. He clenched his fist and gnashed his teeth until his jaws harden

“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.
