James Stefflon The Gifted Heir

Welcome to Atlas City" a soft voice boomed through an implanted mega phone as a multitude of passengers ranging from male to female, all slowly alighted from a plane.Among the multitude was a young man in his mid twenties clad in a white tank top and joggers. The shirt he wore didn't bother concealing his well chiseled abs and biceps."I'm finally home.. after so long" James smiled emotionally as he walked down the stairs of the plane.Three years.. it's been three years since he last saw such a bustling crowd. Now that he was finally able to witness this scene, tears nearly dropped from his eyes.Picking up his bag, James slowly walked out from the airport premises. He had not gone very far when a taxi pulled over in front of him."Where to?" the windscreen slid down, revealing the earnest expression on the taxi man's face."I don't have any cash" James chuckled as he shook his empty wallet."Hmpfh" the taxi man merely snorted before driving off, in an attempt to look for legit cus

"It's been three years, but now that I stare at it, it looks like it's just been a few days" James sighed emotionally as he stared at the bungalow before him whose environment was already overridden with grass. After the confession from the thugs, James let them go, however that was not before breaking half of their bones. Although he couldn't kill them, he could inflict serious pains on their bodies. This would teach them to think twice before trying to bully an helpless old lady. With nothing to do James had begun strolling around the city untill he finally arrived before this bungalow. This was the home he shared with Becca before he suddenly received the divorce papers on the wall three years ago. Judging from the unhealthy environment, he could tell that Becca had not visited the place in a very long time. "Sigh. Just thinking about that evening makes me depressed every time" James shook his head as he walked away. Just as he was about to cross the road to the other side, a

"Scram out of the way ant!" Looking over, James saw the one who had just spoken. It was an arrogant looking man with an upturned brow. He was standing in front of seven hefty looking men who were carrying a luxurious palaquin on their shoulders. Seeing this strange entourage, James lips curled up into a small smile of amusement. "You bastard! why are you still standing there smiling like an idiot?! scram out of the way!" the arrogant looking messenger cried out, feeling irritated at the smile on James lips. "The path is obviously wide. Why do I have to make way for you? aren't you just intentionally looking for trouble?" James questioned back, stunning both the nearby passerbys and the arrogant messenger. "You! you dare speak to me like that?!" The arrogant messenger pointed at James with trembling fingers. It was like he had just seen a ghost. "Who the hell do you think you are? aren't you just an errand boy?" James shrugged before losing any further interest in the other part

"Hmph, where do you think this place is bumpkin.. these seven herbs are nowhere special. Of course we would have them. Hmph " the female receptionist clicked her tongue as disgust flashed past in her eyes."Then why did you shake your head?!" although James had a feeling the other party was just trying to make things difficult for him, he still chose to remain cordial. "Although we have the seven herbs in stock, unfortunately for you they are all listed on the Items to be auctioned off today. If you want to purchase them, you would have to join the auction" a mocking sneer appeared on the lips of the female receptionist as she sneered inwardly. Judging from James outfit and the fact that he was acquainted with Lucas, she figured he wasn't the type who could afford a membership in a prestigious auction event as the one hosted by the Green Leaf Auction House. However just as she was expecting James to leave with a crestfallen expression, he remained rooted on the spot. This infuriate
