“Did you find anything?” Robin asked as soon as Leon came back and the old man nodded. “He is telling the truth,” Leon said simply causing Robin to look at Arti with a probing look. However, he didn't want to probe too much as what he needed to do now was to find Angie. “I think you need to go back to the underworld. They abducted her.” Arti chipped. “I hate to say this but if we don't act fast, Angie might die.” “Shit!” Robin cussed in anger and punched the air. He didn't want to go back there at all. But then the dark band was still with him and there was no way they wouldn't look out for him. “Get ready, we are leaving!” He ordered and then turned to go to his bedroom with Leon to prepare. On the other hand, Arti smirked in victory. He was the one who planned the abduction. No matter what, he wanted his previous boss, Bruce’s legacy to go on. He would do everything to get Robin back there. Arti was itching to put more bullets into the heads of people and he couldn't do that
"You're so hot." In an empty gym, a male voice rang out and Robin halted his steps. "You think so?" Robin heard Sofia's voice and he shook. For a moment, he thought he was hearing things but as he walked further, his eyes widened in shock. He walked toward a secluded part of the gym but he couldn't believe what he saw. His girlfriend was in the arms of the famous and rich quarterback stud, Durk from the University's football team. Seeing this, Robin's hand tightened into a fist while his other hand held onto the parcel in his hand, tightly. He was angry and at the same time, he felt hurt deep in his heart. However, that wasn't all. Durk's next words almost caused Robin to vomit a mouthful of blood. "Your body is to die for. I wonder why your stupid boyfriend hasn't popped the cherry yet." Robin heard those words and his eyes narrowed, in anger. "Don't mind him. You're my lover now and since he's so stupid, he is going to lose me." Sofia said and Robin almost fell to the ground. C
Robin froze as soon as he heard those words. Even though the Squandering System was too good to be true, he couldn't let himself become the poorest of the poorest. He had enough of being poor, why would he become poorer?"This has to be a dream!" He whispered, in a low tone as he got up from the floor. However, a sudden dizzy spell hit him and he almost fell back to the floor. "Ahh.." He cried out, in pain as he held onto his head, quickly only to find out there was blood trickling down his head. He could feel his heart skip a beat at the thought that he was losing blood. Suddenly, he heard that strange voice in his head, again. [Don't fret! The Squandering System has got you covered! Perform your tasks and you can use your points to replenish your body! You will become whole!]As soon as Robin heard those words, he couldn't believe it. First, it was about the money and now it was about his body and health. He started to think that this was a prank as he had never heard of such a s
"What's going on here?" The beautiful lady asked and the security guard who had stood at attention cast an irritated glance at Robin. "Good day, Miss Manager. I'm sorry for the disturbance but this poor man here has insisted on going into the VIP hall. We can't let that happen." The security guard said, in one breath. On the other hand, Robin could only watch as he was being described. He felt embarrassed before the beautiful manager and he bowed his head, in shame. "What do you mean he is poor?" The manager asked, in a curious tone as she looked at Robin from head to toe. Her gaze was piercing and she couldn't deny that he looked poor. However, she managed to lock up her thinking and not spill her words, carelessly. "He claims he needs to be attended to but he keeps begging." The guard said, subtly hinting that Robin was begging him for money. "That's not true!" Robin was quick to shout as he couldn't stand being slandered that way. He wondered why the guard was this way. "What
Robin's eyes widened in shock when he looked at himself in the mirror. His skin had turned fresher and he looked fairer than his normal self."Is this a dream?" He asked, himself as he touched his face, slightly. And then he noticed that his hair looked sleeker and when he touched it, it was so soft. He had never even used a hair or skin care product before and now he gets all the care, just by performing tasks. "Are you there? Squandering System." He muttered those words as he was desperate to see what had provided him with all these. Up until this moment, he was surprised that he was now a millionaire! [Yes, I am always here! You have successfully performed today's task and you have used up your points. Ensure to perform the next task to also gain points for your use.] The system said in a robotic voice as a screen was before Robin's eyes. He continued to look at his balance and he couldn't even keep his eyes away from it. "What have you been staring at, Robin?" He heard his roo
"Did you do what I asked?" Robin asked as he sat on a chair, right in his room. He had his old phone in hand as he started to scroll through the several posts on the school's forum. He didn't even need an answer from Mac as he had already gotten an answer to it. "Yes, I did! No one noticed it was me." Mac replied, in an enthusiastic tone. He could see the excited look on Robin's face and he wondered what his friend was up to. "Why did you decide to put yourself under the bus that way? I think you should have waited till the day of the opening!" Mac said as he was greatly concerned about Robin. On the other hand, Robin looked at the comment left by Mac on the post that had been going viral on the school forum. He had earlier ordered Mac to disclose his identity of being the boss using an anonymous account."You will find out, soon." Robin replied, with a mysterious look on his face. This move of his was just to fish out a few people and also to spread the news so wide."What do you
"It's Durk's opening! Let's go!" The students shouted in delight as they flocked into the school grounds toward where Durk's opening was stationed. He had declared that he would set up his own logistics company as well and he did so. He had cars and buses parked in a strategic location inside the school. He had pulled strings, just to be able to stay right inside the school. "Ahh!! Can you see him over there? He looks so handsome!" One of the female students screamed in delight as they watched Durk stand on the grand stage alongside Sofia who followed him about. The students were going crazy over him and at the same time, speculating what relationship he had with Sofia now."Is that not the school's church rat's ex-girlfriend? Is she with Durk now?" One of the students asked as they started to wave placards all about. "Of course! She is! She wouldn't want to support her wretched ex-boyfriend after all." Another student replied, with a snort. Their envious eyes were on Sofia who ha
"Shit!" Durk yelled, in anger as he marched into the extravagant tent he had created for his opening. He felt like his head was going to burst and his eyes were red. He looked all around and he could see no one. Everyone had left and with his phone in hand, he replayed the video going viral on the school's forum."Ahhh!!" He yelled, in anger as he punched the wall, continuously. Soon, his hand started to bleed but then he did not stop. His anger only increased by multiple folds. "I'm going to kill you, Robin! I'm going to kill you!" He let out, through gritted teeth as he scrolled through his phone, quickly. He wanted to do something. Something that would shake everyone and take Robin out. Never in his life had he expected that things would turn out this way! Never!He thought he had everything under control and he was going to win over Robin. He thought that he was going to be the school's most loved person but everything turned out to be for naught. "I can't take this!" He said a

However, he didn't want to probe too much as what he needed to do now was to find Angie. “I think you need to go back to the underworld.

“Are you okay?” Robin asked as he patted down on Angie’s hair. He led her into his bedroom and Angie could only smile sheepishly. “Tell me what you want to eat. I will get it for you.” Robin uttered, as he made her lay on his bed and he covered her up. He did everything with so much care that Angie was blushing continuously. “No… you don't have to do that.” She said, holding his hand. “You just got out of the police cell, you should rest.” “No, you should be the one resting. Look at me, I'm fine.” Robin put her words down and then stood up to his feet. “Wait here. I'll get you something to eat.” He quickly turned around to leave and before Angie could say something he was gone. She was left sighing on the bed and as she stared blankly at the ceiling, her heart felt full and at the same time, it was in turmoil. She didn't know if Robin was being so caring because of the recent happenings. It was likely so but then why did he have to kiss her before everyone earlier? Does he lik
Robin was remanded in the interrogation room which had dim lighting and two police officers sat before him. “So, where were you with Mac before he died?” They asked. “We were on a work trip,” Robin replied. His reply was vague but then that was the truth. However, it only made the officers more suspicious. “You can't just say you were on a work trip. Where exactly?” They asked. “I–” Knock!Knock!!Robin was cut off with a knock on the door and in the next second, the door opened and a police officer in uniform walked in. “Sir, Angie Hamilton appeared and is demanding to speak to the detective in charge of the case.” The police officer announced. “Angie? Angie is here?” Robin shot up to his feet with a surprised look on his face. How did she get there when she was supposed to be hospitalized? That was the thought in his head and he was about to move to go to her without thinking of anything else.“Mr. Claire, you will have to stay here.” One officer, held him by his shoulder an
Mac’s parents left the mansion in tears as Robin refused to hand over the company to them. However, they looked like they were really going to carry out their threats.“How are you going to solve this? You can't give them the company.” Leon said, walking up and down while Robin sat on the couch. He was silent as he tapped his fingers on the handrest. Claire’s Logistics was the dearest company to him. It was what he founded first and even at that, he could give it out freely for the sake of Mac. But then the moment he starts to give them whatever they wanted, they would come back and ask for more, stating the fact that he killed their son. Mac died because of him but then it didn't mean Robic killed him. He was ready to atone for his sins but with how greedy the parents were, they weren't worth the stress. “Leon…” Robin spoke up as he stood up to his feet. “Let them do their worst. I am not giving them a single penny anymore.” He declared and Leon nodded gleefully. “But if they c
Two days had passed since Robin buried his mother, Mac and Bruce. Several articles had been going all over the internet speculating how Alexander was killed and who killed him. The netizens were also trying to connect his death with the deaths that happened in the underworld. Surprisingly, the police had decided to intervene in the issue. The hideouts of Kaden and his brothers were raided but they couldn't find anything leading back to Robin, he had cleared up everything. And as the bearer of the dark band, no one was willing to snitch on Robin.Also, he had made sure to move Angie to a private hospital, and as of now, though he didn't want anything to do with the underworld, the members still wanted him back and they were already proposing that he reunite every organization in there.A few seconds later, there was a knock on Robin's bedroom and he opened his eyes slowly but he could see nothing. The bedroom was dark and the windows were closed while the curtains were drawn. No amoun
"It's done..." Robin said on the phone with a sigh through his lips. Alexander was locked up in the cell and he was back in Bruce's mansion. "Really? You have Alexander?" Leon said from the other side of the phone. His heart was filled with glee at the thought that their efforts were not in vain. "Yes, Leon. I have a few plans I would need you to carry out." Robin said and Leon answered accordingly. He was ready to do whatever Robin said and a few seconds later, Robin dished out a few instructions and Leon understood. However, before the call got disconnected, Robin revealed what had transpired, "Leon, Bruce and Mac are dead. While Angie is in a critical condition. She might not make it." He dropped the bombshell shell and directly disconnected the call. He didn't want Leon to blame him or try to comfort him. In the next second, Robin threw his phone to the other side and slipped to the floor in his bedroom. This was the time when he was alone and now, he could let it all out. Tea
"No! He is not!" Kaden suddenly screamed, in annoyance. He stood up to his feet immediately and dashed toward them, standing in between Robin and the three men. "He is not the possessor! I am!" Kaden said, angrily. "I have him in my custody! Everything that is on him, belongs to me. So, technically, I am the possessor." He explained in one breath, hoping the three men would come to their senses and acknowledge him instead. "No, he has the band, he is the possessor." One of the men said, pointing at Robin. "No..." Kaden continued to yell but in the next second, they pushed him off and stood before Robin again. "We came as soon as we saw that you are the new possessor. We saw that you were in distress and we decided to come to your aid." One of the men said and Robin who was still reeling in and thinking about what was happening, shook his head slightly. He thought that he was dreaming but then it was real and he needed to put this moment to use accordingly. "Kill him," Robin orde
Immediately, Robin dashed toward Alexander going for the kill. There was nothing in his way to stop and at this moment, he decided that he was going to end this so-called feud between them. On the other hand, Rico suddenly shot up to his feet and dragged Alexander backward in his wheelchair.While Robin was about to launch his attack, there was a sudden bang, and then a gunshot followed. The bullet hit Robin's shield and bounced back, however, it halted his movements rapidly. "Stop!" Kaden's voice rang out with a brutal edge to it. Immediately, Robin's head snapped to look at him and he was right there, beside Angie, pointing a gun at her head. "If you move, I'll shoot. I'll shoot her and you will be losing someone else as well!" Kaden yelled, however, he was in great shock. He was shocked to see that the bullet he shot bounced off. Different scenarios of why that could happen crossed his mind and he even started to think that it was because of the dark band! He was so delusional an
"Fuck! Are we too late? Is she dead?" Mac asked, with a bit of panic in his tone as the audio from the video went off. On the other hand, Robin held onto his phone tightly, and it was obvious it was going to get crushed in the next second. "She better not! They will regret ever doing that!" Robin threatened and he was really going to carry out his threat if Angie was really dead. But deep down, he refused to believe that was what happened. He knew that Kaden was just trying to get him to the location quicker. "Let's go..." Robin said, and he didn't forget to snatch a few weapons from Bruce's armory. He was ready to kill anyone on his way to Angie. A few minutes later, they got into a car and drove off while Arti was looking down at the departing car with regret in his eyes. Deep down, he wished that he was able to tie Robin down, so he could take that band away. On the other hand, Robin drove speedily, following the direction of the GPS in his car. Soon, they arrived before an aban
