"Why do you want to know who I am?" Peter asked.Flint seemed to study Peter before suddenly bursting out in laughter."Of course I don't expect you to give away your identity just like that." He stared at Peter in contemplation for a while before asking."Are you from the Stone family in the south, or the Mondridge Family in the west?" Flint asked placing his finger on his chin contemplatively.No one knew the names he was calling, though the capital was the largest city in the country, most people from other cities have no idea about the internal workings or the big families there as some lived in seclusion.One thing was certain, every random family from the capital could step on any of the so called big families in Landville like an ant beneath their feet.Peter had no idea about any of the names Flint mentioned. Both families Flint just mentioned could be able shake up the entire capital. Flint took Peter's silence as refusal to reveal his special identity.That aura...The da
Within a large mansion in the suburbs of Landville, Joey Winters could be seen with his head lowered."Dad, you have to help me, I've become the laughing stock in the city. Everyone laughs and points everytime they see me, you have to help me gain back my glory in this city." Joey cried unable to bear it anymore.The older man before him raised his hand and delivered a harsh slap onto Joey's face, the loud sound echoed within the spacious living room at the Winters mansion."You dare to ask for my help now? You brat, after I warned you to not offend anyone of higher status than us, you still went around the city without caring for our family. I don't mind what you do with your women or if you smear the family's reputation with your notoriety, we had enough money to shut everyone up. But you unfilial son! You've gone as far as to make me lose my company! How dare you ask for my help now?"Joey clenched his fist tightly recalling how Peter had humiliated him in front of all his friends
That night Peter wore his exquisite business suite and headed to the largest branch of paradise hotel.When he arrived, Daniel met him outside at the entrance. "Boss, why did you make such a strange phone call yesterday?" "Because I have someone I want to teach a lesson." Peter replied. He wore his dark mask over his face then headed into the building.Daniel had already prepared the employees at the lobby, all of them were waiting to see the new boss.He had been to the northern branch the last time and a lot of the female employees had been gushing about how extremely attractive he was even though they couldn't completely see his face.When he walked in, all the employees in their uniforms gathered in a line bowing to greet him. Peter strode in and stopped in their midst. "Good evening President." They all echoed.The paradise hotels were a flourishing business, and Peter had now become the president of this hotel chain."I'd like to express my appreciation for all your hard wor
George felt his knees shaking as he stared at the young man sitting regally behind the desk within the office.Was he dreaming?The man in front of him was actually the renowned masked tycoon.The man whose identity the whole city was extremely curious about.Some said he was the son of an extremely wealthy politician from another city.Others said he was the heir of hidden empire.Regardless of everything, a lot of people in the city would do anything to get acquainted with him.While George was salivating greedily in his mind at his extremely good fortune, Vivian was secretly ecstatic.Was her eyes seeing things or was she seeing reality.This was the man everyone was talking about, the man a lot of ladies in Landville wished to even get a glimpse of. He was soon going to be her husband, she had hit a jackpot!"Sir..." George muttered rushing forward then bowed, "It's an amazing honor to be in your presence."Peter who had his hand against his chin looking contemplative snorted lig
"What are you saying sir?" George didn't believe what he'd just heard, so he asked in disbelief."From what I've gathered you have a flourishing company with two houses and a few cars to your name. I don't blindly give my investments, I will invest generously, but I need something to hold onto. If you think that demand is too much then we have nothing more to discuss."George felt fury burn through his veins he clenched his fist.Good, he'd assumed he could outsmart this man, it turned out the man knew what he was doing."So, what's it going to be? Will you take my investment? Or will you leave without any chance of returning?"Everything this man owned today belong to his father, Peter didn't need a dime from him, but he wanted him to learn a harsh lesson for his treachery.Hearing Peter's last words panic surfaced In Vivian's eyes.Leave without a chance of returning?Did that mean he wouldn't even give them a chance to see him again?A man with such wealth must take his time seriou
Saturday evening that week, Walter called Peter."Come to the automotive city, I have some things to show you." Walter said excitedly over the phone."Alright, I'll be there soon."Peter knew tonight was his racing match against Jason's team so he knew Walter was calling him for something related to that.He first checked on Lisa who was sleeping in her room. She was still recovering from her surgery, and in two weeks the doctors said she could begin to take her first steps again.Peter enjoyed a relaxing bath in his jacuzzi first before getting ready to leave. He picked a sporty looking shirt from his closet and wore it and drove his Dodge Challenger to the automotive city.The automotive city was a set of car dealership shops, the best in the whole city. There were a lot of customers there looking at the latest cars, however there were a special set of cars the customers weren't allowed to even go near as they were Walter's exclusive displays of the best cars.Peter called Walter
Peter was surprised to see even Jason looking respectfully at the girl that had just arrived. The girl walked past the crowd nonchalantly then stopped in her tracks suddenly when she noticed Peter. A hidden look flashed past her eyes but she concealed it."LightRay, these two rookies think they can defeat you in a race." Someone suddenly informed.Her gaze passed by Walter confidently, however when she glanced at Peter, a slight surprise showed in her eyes.Walter discreetly whispered to Peter."Pete, we can't do this. We have to leave now, let's forfeit the race."Peter was surprised to hear Walter who was all hyped up a few seconds ago suddenly change his mind."What are you talking about Walt? We're here to beat these guys at their own game for making you quit racing.""With her here there's no way we can beat them, even with your skills." Walter said sounding stressed, Peter noticed the beads of sweat on his forehead.With an exasperated sigh Peter patted him reassuringly on the
Everyone at the underground racing tracks were watching the match through a large screen."Haha, what a rookie mistake! He actually can't make a simple turn like that one?""Such a boring match to watch, Spark won without even trying." The girl who spoke this time turned to Jason snidely,"Aren't you ashamed to have lost to such a rookie? He can't even drive properly." Someone immediately backed up her remarks, "Some people aren't worthy of being a part of our crew, they're just a bunch of wastes of our precious space."Jason heard everything they were saying about him but he kept silent, watching the screen with keen concentration. This couldn't be.This particular turn was nothing compared to the one on the ACR tracks the other day, and he himself had witnessed how Peter had made that sharp move back then.Could he actually fail just because of a little turn like this one?Just when everyone were planning to look away from the screen out of boredom, the car everyone thought would
