After everyone submitted their final answers in their notebooks - a futuristic device that has two screens, and can open and close like a normal book - the maths teacher left the class and the next teacher walked in. The teacher who was a male about 5.7 feet tall, cleared his throat before beginning the class on English with a stern expression on his face. He would smile anytime he got to a question and frown when he sees a student looking for trouble. Time passed in a blink, and a bored Arthur waited silently class after class whilst giving Lilith besides him strange glances with question marks all over his face. When the electronic bell for lunchtime was ring, the current teacher wrapped things up before bowing to the class and leaving. She was their Chemistry teacher, a tall and slender blonde. As soon as the teacher left, the excited students jumped off their seats and ran out of the classroom in a hurry. Each of them had heard to bell for recess, and most of them didn't want
After school, Arthur got into his jet black limo with Lilith who sat quietly besides him in the back. After giving his order to the middle aged man sitting in the driver's seat at the front, he gave Lilith a glance and waited silently as his chauffeur began the slow drive back to his mansion. He didn't bring his bodyguards today, as he wanted them to rest for a while. He understood humans weren't machines, and that his guards needed to relax for a while. Besides, wouldn't their efficiency be reduced due to stress and fatigue? He already knew he couldn't die, thanks to someone who he'll teach a lesson when he's stronger, he knew that and didn't doubt it. Lilith who was still linked with him could also act as his protector— for now at least. "Sigh…" He picked up his phone and dialed a number swiftly with his head tilted forward before raising his phone to his ear, and closing his eyes. Listening to the ringing tune, an upbeat hip hop musical, blaring unrestrained from the phone's
Lilith felt as if a bowl of cold water had been poured on her head, dousing the nefarious flames of primal lust rising in her heart. Her shoulders loosened as she went weak completely… Jack who saw this giggled in his heart, but didn't say anything rash. After a few seconds, their pose went from intimate to awkward, and Jack couldn't help but clear his throat strategically. "Lilith, you still haven't told me what happened after you stabbed me… What are you hiding?" Jack asked as he coiled his arms around Lilith's slender waist and tightened his grip around her, afraid she would instantly pull away to avoid his question. After Jack's question, Lilith fell into deep silence and contemplation. The silence made Jack feel even more awkward that usual, and he couldn't help but gulp down his saliva. "That…" Lilith suddenly tried to struggle without using too much force to prevent herself from accidentally killing Jack, but found his grip was tightened around her body. She squirmed vi
Arthur bounced into his mansion with his guards and Lilith tailing him closely. He greeted some maids with smiles as he walked forward, then, up the stairs and finally arrived at the first floor. "How many floors does this mansion have?" Lilith asked out of curiosity as she obediently followed Arthur as she knew nothing about the house. She was too lazy to investigate. "About fifteen floors on the surface and five more floors underground. The mansion has over a hundred rooms, excluding those underground." Arthur spoke cooly was he walked up to the elevator on the second floor and stepped inside. Lilith and only a few guards followed. The others took the second elevator out of the four available. "Why didn't you just use the elevator downstairs?" Lilith asked in confusion, she face tilted slightly to the side. She simply couldn't understand Arthur's thought process. He acts unpredictably at times. "Because I wouldn't be able to see all those beautiful maids- ouch!" Arthur spoke
It's been a few hours and the evening dinner had just begun. Sitting besides Arthur was a middle aged man who looked like a older and more mature version of Arthur. He had silky silver hair and bright black eyes, alongside his chiselled and angular face. He was Arthur's father, Brian Thompson. He was wearing a silver suit that complements the colour of his hair, and his eyes were lowered, covering the calculative glint flashing in his eyes under his long lashes. "Arthur how was school today?" Hearing the familiar voice, Arthur lifted his head and looked over his father. A middle aged woman sat there with her head tilted over and rested on her palm, and her eyes looking straight at Felix. She was a very beautiful woman, who had long silky hair, smooth jade skin, and a curvaceous figure. Her face was round and delicate, with her pinkish lips, slender brows, straight nose, and a pair of calculative eyes. "School was fine mother, nothing unexpected happened today." Arthur smiled
After calming himself down, Arthur ran back upstairs and grabbed his Neo-VR watch inside his bag. He now understood why his bag felt so strange when he stared at it earlier. Dammit! If he'd known such a thing would happen, he shouldn't have left his bag alone earlier… He should have cast it to the skies instead! Should he just destroy the watches now? At least he could avert a massive storm that's headed for him. He glanced at the watch wrapped around his wrist, then, the image of a cute little girl popped up in his head. Dammit, wouldn't everything just go to waste? He bought it from his dar- ahem! He bought it from Katelyn at an enormous sum! Ignoring price, just the fact he bought it from Katelyn was enough to increase the value of the watch by leaps and bounds! It's value was more than something he robbed off a business rival. To think Fay knowing about this would force me into reasoning something as dark as throwing away his valuable watch… Sigh… "Argh! Just you wait
That Bastard! Why is he here now of all times? Does he really think I won't beat him up after what he did last time? Jacob glared at the hooded figure standing behind the hunched over Robert. His eyes were burning with fury as he clenched his fists, and gave Arthur a mean smirk. "It seems you haven't changed in the slightest, out Last Minute Hero. You are still that spoiler brat who doesn't have a life." Arthur smirked at this, his eyes glowing in a faint light as he straightened his spine. "Haha, Jacob… Still as humourous as ever… Daring to hit a friend of mine? It seems you've forgotten who you're dealing with?" Arthur grinned as he drew his left hand out of his pocket and cracked his knuckles. Jacob merely scoffed before suddenly dashing forward, knocking Robert who stood directly in front of him to the side. "Shit! Arthur and Jacob are about to have another clash? Dammit, someone get me my Starblet, I'm streaming this to our private Starnet Channel!" "Increase the size of t
Jacob was humiliated! Kicking and screaming while also bathing in the fountain, only a god would understand how much rage and anger he felt at this minute. He felt like shoving Arthur's head under the tires of a moving bus! "Hehe, stupid Jacob… Do you really think you can beat me? I'm better than you in nearly everything except humiliating oneself in front of others!" Of course, Arthur wouldn't let go of this chance to quench the nearly extinguished flames burning ferociously in Jacob's heart. He would pour water on the flames, making sure it died out completely! But, life didn't always go as planned… For where there was people trying to put an end to a problem, there where others wanting that problem to blow up and escalate… "Such a humiliating scene displayed before someone he was trying to court? And he lost to the person he considers his nemesis? In just how many ways had this little baby lost his face today?" Everyone turned in the direction of the feminine voice that reso
