Once Harry had left, Tristan was on his own, quite a good thing since the system required him to work alone on this mission.The two-hour drive to Palm Bay felt like forever, time went by slowly and Tristan had slept off in the car for about an hour. They stopped halfway through the journey to get something to eat at a restaurant and to avoid unwanted attention, Tristan put on a hat and dark shades.Popularity was the only side of his life that he didn't like at the moment, and what's worse is that there will be more as long as he has the system.After eating, they continued on the endless trail until they got to Palm Bay at exactly 3 p.m.They drove into the little town, filled with many locals. By the name Palm Bay Tristan expected to see a town filled with advanced citizens, little did he know that he was coming to a place just like his hometown in the countryside.The people here placed high priority on their culture and it was visible in the way they related with one another, the
The fight persisted until the Man went flying through the air, falling on his back on the beach sand wincing in pain. There was a loud gasp from the crowd and they all looked in the direction of the man who had such confidence to throw another through the air.Standing tall and energized as usual, Max had stepped into the fight and stopped it abruptly by picking the man up and throwing him towards the water.Even Tristan reacted as the man fell on his back, he couldn't imagine how much pain he must have felt, but he couldn't care less because it was he who started the attack in the first place."I knew it! the lady yelled as she ran to help her husband who could barely get back on his feet." I knew that you rich people are nothing but trouble, with your bodyguards you go around beating people up! " she added.Tristan ignored her and turned to the murmuring and agitated crowd, but most of them were too afraid to come closer to him because of Max." Listen to me, I didn't want to do an
The drive took less than ten minutes until the boy asked them to stop, and then he pointed at a house farther into an area on the left. The pathway was too narrow for cars to drive through."That's their family house," he announced excitedly while waiting for his reward." Thank you," Tristan said to him and took out a box from a compartment in the front seat and gave it to him." here you go," he said, The boy took the box and opened it up without hesitation, an expression of shock was visible on his face as he beheld the amount of money that he had not seen ever in his life."Thank you, thank you so much, this money will help my mom's illness, even though she'll be disappointed because of what I did at the beach, but who cares... you are not one of those wicked rich men sir." Tristan could not help but smile at his statement, and said," Trust me when I tell you that even if a whole county is said to be corrupted, there must be at least one good person in their midst."" You are a
[ A.N- Thank you to those who voted with gems, as I promised, I'd add an extra chapter today, so instead of two chapters you'd get three🥳 Thank you for voting and keep the gems coming remember /10 gems=1 bonus chapter/]_________Day 4~~~~~~The final day of the task, after which Tristan would call it a break. He woke up and as usual, did his morning exercises and after breakfast and showers, everyone was ready to leave the house.The drive to the orphanage took twenty minutes, and as soon as they got inside, the atmosphere was rather vibrant, not that these teenagers played about or ran around like little children, but there was a lot of activity going causing them to pace forward and back."Quite a busy place," Tristan uttered, he had no intentions of seeing or addressing them, all he wanted was to find Tomy, pay a million dollars to the orphanage account, and be on his way."Yes sir, it's always busy here," the manager of the orphanage said, he was an elderly man in his early fif
The manager was surprised, he stared at Tristan in shock and just to confirm that he had heard correctly, he asked,"You said you may have found his parents?" "Yes, but I need to know how he came here first before we go any further," Tristan said, in a bid to quench his curiosity as to how Tomy ended up at the orphanage with both his parents alive."Okay sir, let me call someone," said the manager as he picked up that telephone and punched the necessary buttons."Hello Clara, please can you come to my office immediately?" Not less than two minutes after the call, the lady known as Clara walked into the office after knocking gently on the door.She was dressed in a purple gown, with black flat shoes and a good wristwatch, she greeted the manager and then Tristan before taking her seat."You call me sir," she said."Yes Mrs. Clara, it was you who accepted Tomy into the orphanage that day right?" he asked her.Taken aback by the unexpected question about the past, Mrs. Clara nodded her
Tomy was short of words, "Could it be a joke or a prank?" he thought"Or could it be that I was about to get adopted?" he questioned himself while getting his bags ready.Some of his friends who saw him packing asked where he was going, but since he was not sure about the situation, he couldn't respond. All he said was," I'm leaving the orphanage."" To where?" they asked, but he didn't give an answer to that, just silence and a shrug. Knowing his behavior, they didn't ask further questions to avoid infuriating the violent demon inside him.Meanwhile, back in the office, Tristan had just finished his transfer of three million dollars to the orphanage home's account, and as soon as he did.../System update//Objective 1 completed//Hosts have been rewarded with 50 exp points and 10 gift points/"Thank you very much, Mr Coleman, this will go a long way in helping the orphanage here," the manager acknowledged."Good, and I hope that a few of them will go to college?" Asked Tristan."Of
"You again!" The lady yelled,"What are you doing at my... her voice trailed off as she looked in the direction of the young boy, his face looked familiar and she felt a connection, but she shook the thoughts off her head and faced Tristan Instead." You brought the cops to our house! " her husband joined in," I knew that you rich men are no good, after beating me up at the beach yesterday, you didn't have enough and you still brought the cops here to finish what you started... wicked man, that's what you are!"Tristan was irritated, although it was obvious that this violent couple would be the parents to this violent child, but then again, he wished they were a bit more welcoming and it was even more annoying that they couldn't recognize their son when they saw him."He is not here to arrest you, mam, " the officer spoke up in defense, giving the couple a disdainful stare."Exactly," the manager added.Tristan was so pissed by this behavior that he said,"I don't care whether or not
As Tristan walked into the room, he was taken by surprise, Emily wrapped her hand around him with tears trickling down from her cheek, she couldn't believe that this same man whom she despised for his wealth at the beach has reunited her with her long lost son.Thinking that he was about to be attacked, Max acted quickly and tried to free Tristan from Emily's embrace but her grip was tight.She soon left him and fell to her feet, her face buried on the floor and her hand on Tristan's shoes."You do not know what you have done for me," she cried, her tone conveying nothing but gratitude and a hint of remorse.Her face was wet with tears and she was sweating all over, words could not describe how ashamed she was of herself and wanted to go back in time and fix what she did at the beach, but time could not be reversed so what more could she do than crawl at his feet in appreciation and apology."You have brought back our son, for twelve years sir, I have given up on ever setting eyes on
