*****In a hotel room, a beautiful lady was seen seated on her bed and doing a video call with a middle-aged man at this moment.“You’ve completed the mission already? That was quite fast, how did you manage to neutralize that old bastard in such a short time?” The man on the video inquired with amazement.“Boss, I did not neutralize him. Have you not heard the news?” “What news?” The man appeared confused, which in turn confused the lady.“Boss, have you not heard that someone else has replaced the old gambler and made him unable to gamble again in his life?”“Huh… that…”The man on the video frowned for a moment, but then his eyes constricted and he appeared amazed.“The news was real and not a mere rumor?”“Of course, boss. How come the organization’s Intel had not reported it already?”“Amazing.” As though the middle-aged man didn’t hear the beautiful lady’s words, he beamed excitedly, looking as though he had just won a jackpot.“The person that defeats him, what’s th
*****Like the entirety of the people in the capital city, Jewel woke up very early the following day.She did not even sleep throughout the night, filled to the brim with excitement for the day.The reason behind her joy wasn’t that of others, the long awaiting Gem Seeking competition, no. Jewel was excited because finally, she’d meet the person who had long captured her interest.Filled to the brim with excitement, Jewel rushed into the washroom to bathe, then she wore the dress she bought the previous day.She was about to rush out when she remembered that she hadn’t taken her phone.Picking it up, she realized she had switched it off the day before.Jewel turned on the phone when without warning, her face changed significantly.“Two- two hundred missed calls and fifty messages?!” She exclaimed with shock.“Who has the time to call me this much?” she thought before quickly clicking the notification icon.The following second, she became nervous. “Has Father known I have a
*****Williams, having slept very late the night before, planning many things currently felt his head throbbing hysterical as though he were having a hangover when he hadn’t even drunk even the slightest trace of alcohol.[Lazy brat, ] a disdainful voice echoed in his mind, but acting as though he did not hear, Williams ignored it before staring at the caller’s ID on his phone, feeling grumpy about who had spoilt his great dream.The instant he saw it, however, all the traces of the sleepiness in his eyes were wiped off. “Have I over-slept?” he mumbled before hurriedly looking at the time at the top left corner of the cell phone.“Dang!” He exclaimed with shock before he quickly threw the phone to the bed.Williams jumped up and bolted into the washroom.“Why didn’t you wake me up, system?!” He yelled with fury in his mind, blaming the poor system.The system was stunned for a moment before a speechless tone came from it into Williams’ mind.“Is my job part of waking up the ho
*****Although it was a workday, Wednesday, almost everybody in the city did not bother going to work that day.Instead, they were all filled to the brim with excitement and anticipation as they all prepared for the upcoming competitions.The ones who could afford the travel expenses, hotel, and ticket traveled down to the capital city, to watch the competition in person while the ones who couldn’t afford or bear to leave decided to watch them in their comfort zones.As it was the first time the city would be organizing this competition, various cities created a massive show center in their various stadiums, which would air the competition in real-time, where people could watch.Although the competition hadn’t even begun, it was already filled to the brim, with everyone there to support their cities and country.The entire country was in a state of wild joy and excitement right now.“Hehehehe. Hubby, although I can’t support you directly, I will be here for you, watching and prayin
*****William was thoroughly confused at this moment as well as anxious, seeing the deathly quiet street that had been overfilled to the brim the previous day.‘Could it be I’m still dreaming?’ he wondered.Williams began to ponder hard when a sound jolted him back to his senses.Without hesitation, he bolted toward the sound, only to see an old man, with an earpiece in his ears mowing the grass.“I thought an apocalypse had occurred while I was dreaming?” He heaved a deep sigh of relief and the goosebumps that had crawled all over Williams slowly dispersed.Without hesitation, Williams approached the old man and tapped him after a slight hesitation, jolting the elderly man hard.The next second, he stared at Williams as though he weren’t seeing well.“There are still people other than me in the street? A young one at that?” He mumbled slightly, confusing Williams.“Hum… sir, I’m wondering if you perhaps has any idea where everyone had disappeared.”“This…”If earlier, the
*****“Master surely is excited today!!!”Inside a long hall, the bodyguard of the Harrison Family’s patriarch suddenly spoke after a moment of hesitation.As soon as the elderly man, who was seated in the head chair heard the man in Chinese attire, his beard shook and the excitement he had been forcing himself to hold back came rushing out of him.“Hahahaha! I’m obviously excited” He erupted with laughter. “I can’t wait to see that brat shine and it is only then I will announce to the world that he is my grandson-in-law!”The old man’s eyes began to shine with excitement as he stared unblinkingly at the massive projection mounted before him.As soon as the bodyguard heard his master’s words, his mouth twitched for a moment and he did not know whether to laugh or cry.He still couldn’t believe that this man, who was only melancholy and mad in the past and was always moody and sad was still his master.Recalling how the entire villa was usually billed with the depressed aura th
*****Zed City’s Stadium, at the regular section.____“This is great!!! Hahaha”“I’m finally relieved that bastard is not there!”“I thought they would secretly add him to the group!”“What a huge relief!”Unlike Williams’ women and his close acquaintance, everyone in Zed City was presently crazy with excitement, realizing that Williams was really not present. It was as though Williams’ presence in the group would really jinx their city and make them lose the competition.Although the match had not even begun, everybody; both old and young, men and women, poor and rich started to jubilate with satisfaction and joy, behaving as if this was the best thing that could happen.****“Ah!!! I’m so mad!” Dara, who like her sisters was filled with concern in their private booth suddenly cried out, glaring out through the massive one-sided see-through glass before them at the excited crowd below.“Those ingrates!” Penelope also gritted her teeth with rage as she continued dialing Willi
*****In the bar that was filled to the brim with a congratulatory atmosphere a moment ago, everyone’s mouth was slightly opened after hearing the bomb thrown by their most pampered brother.This lasted for a moment before everyone exchanged blank gazes, looking as though they had just misheard what was said before eventually, their jaws dropped, almost reaching Hade’s world under the ground.“You… you… you… did you just… did you just say that?” the person sitting closest to the guy being congratulated abruptly stuttered, appearing greatly astounded.“You… you did not just tell us we don’t deserve to be your brothers again, right?”“You…”Everyone became filled to the brim with disbelief, gaping at their comrade who had always been the humblest amongst them as they questioned him.They couldn’t believe that just because of a single elevation, he would trash them this badly and forget their pasts together just like that.Every one of them asked all sorts of questions in astonis
