“Mhmm… it's because I'm not a member of the Jarrod Family. Precisely, I've never been treated as a family before. I'm just a tool for them.”Stacy was nonchalant as she spoke. Perhaps the pressure from the Jarrod family has weighed her down so much that she could no longer endure.“I was seven years old when I brought my David Jarrod into the Jarrod family from the orphanage. The main reason was that they needed me to save their daughter, Stacy Jarrod. Due to excess blood loss while giving birth, the Madamé of the Jarrod family didn't make it.The real miss of the Jarrod, Stacy Jarrod, had inherited the panda blood from her mother, thus, when she had gotten into an accident, David Jarrod couldn't save her. Panda blood was scarce in the hospital. David has offered a skyrocketing amount for whoever had panda blood. It was at that

What will happen to him and his family now that his Dad, the breadwinner, is caught in such a terrifying scandal?“Look, it's not as it appears, I have not committed any of these atrocious things," Anthony responded but Baxter wasn't a kid any longer. He understood his father did not want to come clean.Baxter's eyes narrowed his voice firm but laced with disappointment. “Don't lie to me, Dad. I'm not a kid anymore. I know what's going on. You've been involved in some shady dealings, and now you're in trouble.”Anthony's face reddened his denial swift. “I'm telling you, son, I've done nothing wrong. I'm being framed by my enemies. They're trying to ruin my reputation and destroy our family.”Baxter scoffed, his frustration evident on his face. “Framed? Really?” He chuckled, “That's the best you've got? I'm not buying it, Dad.

Chaos erupted in front of the Green House as a sea of angry citizens gathered to protest the President's latest scandal. The streets were packed with people holding signs, chanting slogans, and demanding justice. The President's face was plastered on posters, with bold red X's marked through them.“How could you, Mr. President?” a woman shouted through a megaphone. “You're supposed to serve the people, not yourself!”The crowd roared in agreement, their voices echoing off the Green House walls. It is no longer in the past where citizens were quiet and tongue-tied, unable to protest or rebel against their president openly… This is 2024, the 21st century where anything is possible. Security guards stood helplessly at the gates, unable to contain the sheer number of protesters. Although they could tear some gas and the people campaigning against the president would run in this case, they didn't.The President, flanked by his aides, stepped out onto the balcony to address the crowd.

He had been in this small cell for what felt like an eternity, and he was eager to get out and stretch his legs.As he heard the sound of footsteps approaching, Evans turned to face the door. The guard unlocked it and gestured for him to come out. “Time to go, Evans,” he said gruffly.Evans nodded and stepped out of the cell, blinking in the bright light of the corridor.

“Welcome, young master,”It was yet another beautiful morning in A City. With most of the dirty-hearted billionaires dead and others sentenced to terms in prison. Adams strode inside the interview room with a gracious stance. He had to maintain his steeze…“Over here,” a warder gestured to a magnificent chair that had been prepared for him in advance. Adams was pleased by the special treatment he was given. This was life… a life where he is respected and treated as he deserves.“Young Master, he'll be here soon…”As Evans was escorted out by the two guards, Adams couldn't help but notice the stark contrast in his demeanor. Gone was the arrogant and overbearing individual he had known for so long, replaced by a shell of a man who looked defeated and broken.He remembered the countless times Evans had tried to destroy him, the lies he had told, and the pain he had caused him and every single humiliation.“Ah, Evans George,” Adams said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “It's so good to s

As Evans walked away from the prison, he felt a sense of liberation wash over him. He took a deep breath, feeling the cool breeze fill his lungs, and gazed out at the bustling streets. People passed by, going about their daily lives, and Evans felt a pang of envy. He had been locked away for so long, he had forgotten what it was like to be a part of society. Fortunately, these people do not recognize him. His face was covered with beards and he was dressed in the old clothes that he wore when he was arrested. Evans felt his stomach growl. A cab was already waiting for Evans at the gate. He boarded the cab that took him directly to a restaurant. Evan's stomach growled in hunger as he perceived the aroma emanating from the restaurant. A smile plastered on his face as he thought about Adams. Perhaps, if only he had treated him any better. Despite everything, Adams still added food to his schedule. As he sat down at a table, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. It was as if so

***Sophia pushed open the door to Adams’ room, her eyes scanning the space with nervousness. She had to find the black system, no matter what, or else Julius would certainly not be pleased with her. Her gaze swept across the room, taking in the messy bed, the scattered clothes, and the cluttered desk. She strode over to the desk, her heart racing with fear of being caught in the act. She began to search through the drawers, her fingers rifling through papers and pens, but finding nothing. She moved on to the bookshelf, scanning the titles, but none of them seemed out of place. She even lifted the mattress, checking for any hidden compartments. But as the minutes ticked by, Sophia's search yielded nothing. No black system, no hidden files, and no clues whatsoever. She stood in the center of the room, her hands on her hips, and a scowl on her face. Where was it? She knew Adams had it. She was sure of it. Julius wouldn't lie to her, right? She immediately rejected accepting to searc

It was a small patch of skin, tinged a sickly grey, nestled between the creature's emerald scales. Baxter knelt beside the massive beast, his heart racing at the thought of what he had to do. “You’ve got this,” he murmured to himself, bracing for the final confrontation. Suppressing the lingering pain from the creature’s earlier attack, he focused all his remaining energy into his hands, the crackling electricity intensifying until it vibrated in the air around him. With a deep breath, Baxter pressed his palm against the discolored patch on the Chimera’s neck and unleashed a concentrated bolt of electricity. The moment it made contact, the air around him shattered with a brilliant blinding light. The Chimera shuddered violently. Its body convulsed as arcs of electricity coursed through it, illuminating the veins of energy visible beneath its scaled skin.

Baxter's eyes darted around, trying to pierce through the mist and identify the approaching threat. The forest was eerily silent now, save for the occasional snap of a twig or rustle of leaves. "Okay, Bax," he muttered to himself, electricity crackling between his fingers. "You've got this. Just stay calm and—" A blood-curdling screech cut through the air, sending chills down Baxter's spine. He whirled around, just in time to see a massive, bat-like creature swooping down from the canopy above. Its wingspan was easily fifteen feet, and its leathery wings ended in razor-sharp claws. A long, serpentine neck extended from its body, crowned by a head that was a nightmarish fusion of bat and reptile. Rows of needle-like teeth glinted in its gaping maw as it dived--- --bombed towards Baxter, its talons outstretched and ready to rend flesh from bone. Baxter's newly upgraded reflexes kicked in once again. He dove to the side, rolling across the forest floor as the creature's claws raked th

Baxter's newly enhanced reflexes kicked in, and he rolled to the side with surprising speed, narrowly avoiding the acidic projectile. The glob splattered against the floor, eating through the material with a sickening hiss."Holy shit," Baxter breathed, marveling at his newfound agility. But there was no time to celebrate. The Slime Beast was already preparing another attack.Instinctively, Baxter raised his hand, willing some kind of defense into existence. To his astonishment, a shimmering barrier of energy materialized in front of him, just as the creature launched another acidic glob. The projectile splashed harmlessly against the barrier, dissipating into harmless droplets."Energy Manipulation, huh?" Baxter muttered, a grin spreading across his face. "Let's see what else I can do."He focused his mind, channeling the strange new energy coursing through his body. A ball of crackling blue light formed in his palm, growing larger as he concentrated. With a grunt of effort, Baxter h

Baxter Holmes groaned as consciousness slowly returned to him. His head throbbed, and his body felt like it had been hit by a truck. He blinked, trying to clear his vision, only to find himself in a strange, dimly lit room. "What the hell?" he muttered, pushing himself up to a sitting position. The last thing he remembered was being in bed with Amber, Jasmine, and Tiffany, their bodies intertwined in a passionate tangle. How did he end up here? Suddenly, a translucent blue screen materialized in front of him, startling Baxter so badly that he fell back onto his elbows. [Welcome, Baxter Holmes, to the HQ Virtual Game System.

Erica's eyes fluttered open, and she found herself standing in a desolate, digital landscape. The air was thick with an eerie, pulsing energy that seemed to seep into her very being. She looked around, and a sense of déjà vu washed over her. The terrain, the sky, the very code that streamed through the air... it was all so familiar. As she took her first steps, the ground beneath her feet seemed to shift and writhe, like a living thing. Erica's stomach lurched, and she felt a wave of disorientation wash over her. She stumbled, her hands grasping for something, anything, to steady herself. The system's interface materialized before her, a cold presence that seemed to regard her with a mixture of curiosity and contempt. Erica's eyes scanned the lines of codes, her brows furrowing with each column she looked at. The realization of why the codes looked so familiar to her was like a slap in the face, leaving her breathless and stunned. The system... was almost identical to the game she

Adams' advanced combat implant kicked into overdrive, flooding his system with heightened reflexes and tactical data. He darted between Oblivion's legs, striking at joints and weak points with precision. Each blow elicited another shriek of pain from the monstrous AI. But Oblivion was far from defeated. Its stinger lashed out with lightning speed, catching Adams off guard. He felt a searing pain in his shoulder as the venomous barb grazed him. [Warning: Toxin detected.

You're quite resourceful and determined.} Adams turned to face the figure, and his eyes widened as he took in its appearance. It was a woman with long, flowing hair and piercing green eyes.
