Barry regarded Jonathan after he slapped him. "That was a mistake, Jonathan. You shouldn't have hit me."

"And I'll do it again," Jonathan spat in Barry's face. "You think you can take what's mine and get away with it? Guess what, King, I'm going to take back Raven enterprises then I'll destroy you piece by piece until there's nothing left of you."

Barry didn't say anything. Right now, he was still wearing King's disguise. If these two uncover his disguise, he'll be busted.

Jonathan's wicked grin spread further across his face.

"Got nothing to say, huh? You know, I once respected you, King. But that respect died the moment you allowed Barry to call the shots and removed me from my family's company."

Jonathan grabbed a fistful of Barry's shirt and snarled to his face. "Don't underestimate me, King. The Nightingale family are one of the most powerful families in North Hills. With their backing, I'll make sure you rot in jail."

    Barry didn't flinch nor reacted after being slapped. Instead, he stared down at Laura, who was breathing fire and brimstone at him.“How dare you?” She hissed, her voice shaking with rage. “Is this some kind of game to you? My family is impoverished, my parents are getting a divorce. And yet, you have the guts to walk in here, and smile like that?”Barry did not say anything. He kept his eyes fixed on Laura as if she were the only one in the room.“I hate you, Barry,” Laura spat, her eyes burning with hatred. “I hate you more than I've ever hated anyone in my life. Because of you, the Raven family is ruined. Is this how you repay my grandmother for the kindness she showed to you?”Barry took a deep breath, then began. “Before Madam Evelyn passed away, I made a vow to her. I promised to take care of you and protect you, Laura.”Laura wrinkled her nose. “I don't need your care, neither do I need your protection.”Barry ran his fingers through his hair. “You don't have to tell me twice.

    Silverleaf University was made up of multiple colleges. It was the most popular university in the country, attended by graduated students from all walks of life. In silverleaf University, the social hierarchy of Ranks doesn't apply here. As long as you can fund your tuition fees, you're free to enroll. However, the tuition fee was not cheap. The annual tuition fee ranged from $90,000 to $150,000 depending on the program of study. For an average student, pursuing a four-year program could range from $500,000 to $700,000 after additional costs such as housing, meal plan, textbooks, and materials. This was why, after Madam Evelyn fell ill, Barry had to drop out of school for three years during his second year. Since Barry missed three years, he had to re-enroll. This means he would graduate later than his original course mates. Not wanting to call too much attention to himself, Barry decided not to drive to school in his Mercedes-Maybach S-Class.Instead, he settled for a 2019 Ho

I wonder who his new sponsor is.”Barry sat down quietly in his seat and placed his satchel on the desk. Just then, the door slammed open, and Duke Whitmore entered the lecture hall.

    Barry regarded Aiden calmly before responding. “Why didn't you confront me first before destroying my car?”“My bad,” Aiden smirked. “I didn't know you of all people owned a car. I thought it was just another loser. So I destroyed it out of spite. It was my favorite spot, and you had the balls to park it there.”Barry narrowed his eyes. “What you did was wrong, Aiden. The parking lot is for everyone. You had no right to destroy my car simply because I parked in your favorite spot.”Barry's audacious tone surprised Aiden. He was even more surprised at how well dressed, and good-looking Barry had become. “You've changed,” Aiden frowned. “Just because you managed to own a Honda Civic, you think you can lecture me, huh?”Barry stepped forward until he was standing face to face with Aiden. “Sixty minutes. I'm going to give you sixty minutes to provide a new Honda Civic sport. The same model you destroyed. If you fail to replace it before the time is up,” Barry leaned in his ears and whi

    Loid thought he was dreaming. Never in his life did he imagine that his son, Barry, could command a force as powerful as the Mario brothers. He stood there like a petrified statue, gaping at Barry in shock. Barry passed a hand across his hair as he approached Loid. "You look shocked, Loid," Barry said. Loid swallowed. Barry's voice was cold and merciless. He had never felt so frightened in his life. "What's going on Barry?" Loid asked with a shaky voice. "I'm confused."Barry locked eyes with his father for a long time then he broke the silence. "Like I said, King doesn't exist. I made him up to test you. More importantly, I lied about being a servant."Loid felt like he was coming and going. "Who are you?""I'm not the same little boy you abandoned years ago, Loid," Barry said curtly. "I've evolved from a boy to a man. I'm worth trillions of dollars. The mansion, the cars, the butler, they are all mine."Loid's face went pale. He wanted to say something but the words were stuck

  • Set up

    Barry reported to Loid that his master refused to assist him with the $10 million loan. Loid then did the unexpected. He took Barry aside and whispered in his ears. "I anticipated something like this would happen," Loid said. "That's why I'm going to implement plan B. Listen, son, you deserve more than you're getting. If you cooperate with me, you would never remain a servant."Barry looked at his father closely, already knowing where he was heading to with this talk. "What are you planning?"Loid smirked. "First, you have to give me your word that you'd do what I say. If this works out well, not only would I pay off my debt but I can also make both of us some hard cool cash."Barry sighed. "It's not like I have a choice. What's your plan?""We're going to abduct your master and demand a ransom," Loid revealed. "Now, don't look alarmed. No harm would come to him. Trust me.""This isn't right," Barry pretended to protest. "If the law gets involved, we'd be thrown in jail."Loid was a

Loid's up to something. He didn't come all the way here to make peace. He wants money to settle off a $10 million debt."Sebastian grinned. "Let me guess, you're not planning to lend him the money are you?""Of course I'm not," Barry said, walking into the house. "I need a favour, Sebastian. I want you to look into Loid's recent activities and report back to me tonight. Can you do that?"Sebastian nodded. "Piece of cake, master Barry. Leave that to me.""I trust you," Barry said quietly. "As far as I know, my father is probably up to no good."* * * *Later that evening, Loid took a taxi to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town. Unknown to Loid, Sebastian had followed him discreetly using his unique ability to turn invisible. It was easy for Sebastian to slip through the cracked door into the w

    Barry stood up abruptly, his chair scraping against the floor. He gestured for Loid to follow him. “Come on, let’s go. I’ll take you to where I live.”Loid followed Barry out the door. Barry hailed a taxi, and the two men climbed in. The ride was silent. Various thoughts ran through Barry's mind. From time to time, he'd steal glances at Loid. There was an excited looks in Loid's eyes that Barry found suspicious.When the taxi finally pulled up in front of a shabby, run-down apartment building, Loid’s face instantly fell. The paint on the walls was peeling, the windows were cracked, and the entrance was littered with trash. Loid turned to Barry, his brow furrowed in confusion.“What’s this place?” Loid asked sharply. Barry stepped out of the taxi and motioned for Loid to follow. “This is where I live,” he said flatly, leading the way inside.Loid trailed behind, his eyes widening as they entered the dimly lit hallway. The air smelled of mildew and stale cigarettes, and the floor cr

    Barry finished his last drink in one swift motion, then he set the glass down on the table. He leaned back in his chair and let out a deep breath. "Thank you for listening to my backstory. I haven't told anyone about this except Madam Evelyn."Sebastian stepped forward and began clearing the table in silence. "Master," Sebastian began, breaking the still silence, "what do you intend to do about your father? He seems quite determined to see you."Barry's eyes narrowed, his jaw tightening as he considered the question. "I'll set up guards at the gates," he said firmly. "If Loid shows his face around any of my properties, they'll kick him out without a second thought. I don't want him anywhere near me or Snow."Sebastian nodded, placing the last of the dishes on the tray. "It's fortunate that Miss Snow is still at school, boarding. I imagine you wouldn't want her to see him and be reminded of... everything.""Exactly," Barry replied sharply. "Snow doesn't need to be dragged into this

As he drove his bike back to the diamond estate, he met a man standing right outside the gates of his mansion. "Excuse me, can I help you?" Barry asked, killing the engine of his bike. "This is private property.""I'm looking for the owner of this house, King," the man said, turning around to face Barry.

    Barry was clad in a black leather jacket over a simple white t-shirt, paired with fitted denim jeans. His boots clicked against the polished marble floor as he strode confidently toward Snow. A pair of sunglasses rested on his face, elevating his looks.The moment he entered, the room shifted. Girls whispered among themselves, their gazes locked onto him in admiration.Even Daphne’s cheerleader squad suddenly straightened up, eyes widening at the sight of him.Snow, seeing her brother at last, ran straight into his arms and embraced him tightly. “You’re late,” she pouted, looking up at him with slight annoyance. "Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting for you?"Barry removed his sunglasses, tucking them into his jacket pocket as he smiled down at her. “Sorry, kiddo. I got caught in a traffic jam.”Snow studied his face for a moment before sighing. “I was worried,” she admitted, stepping back. “But I’m glad you’re here.”Just then, a scoffing voice cut through the moment.

The hall was reserved for parents who had come to visit their children at Elite High boarding school.To Snow's surprise, the hall was filled with the wealthiest families in the country.Around her, the other students were surrounded by their families, their tables occupied with lavish gifts and treats. One girl’s parents had brought a limited-edition designer handbag that wasn’t even available in stores yet.At another table, a boy was handed the keys to a brand-new sports car. Snow’s eyes flicked to the piles of shopping bags, the gleaming jewelry, and the latest tech gadgets being passed around. But Snow’s table was empty. No gifts, no family, no one.
