Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 7: Belinda Torou
Kagern's words stung Jennifer like a scorpion. She remembered saying them. How arrogant and overconfident her tone was when she said she would lick his shoes if he could pay.'Let me just apologize!'With her head lowered, she said, "Sir, I'm so sorry! I was just... joking!"When a few seconds passed without receiving any reply, she decided to raise her gaze only to see Kagern staring at her with a mockery smirk on his face, his gaze unwavering.'Is he really going to make me lick his shoes?'She shuddered at the thought of it but summoned her courage to say, "Sir, you cannot tell me to lick your shoes. It was a joke!"Both Kagern and Bingle were quite but Jennifer's guilty conscious pushed her to keep talking."Miss Spears, I'm the hotel's receptionist. Doing as he suggests can bring disrespect to the hotel."When Bingle heard her name being mentioned, she snorted and said, "So, was it an honor when you disrespected him?""No! But...""No buts! Do what you said you would do and don't
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 8: Think Twice
"How dare you remain seated while I'm talking to you? Didn't your parents teach you how to respect the elders?"The man's voice was so high as if he was telling the whole city. All eyes in the restaurant shifted to their table, making Belinda nervous. She was going to stand up but Kagern touched her hand and signed for her not to.Seeing their hands touching one another's enraged Mr. Hako even more. "Stand up, you bitch! This is not where you get to sexualize each other."Kagern would have said something but Belinda had a reply ready. "Mr. Hako, are you blind or something? What's so sexual about holding hands?"The people around nodded in understanding, making Mr. Hako feel embarrassed. He was not the type that accepts defeat, though. He said, "Do whatever you want but not in my hotel!"This time, Kagern couldn't contain himself anymore. "Your hotel?""Of course! My hotel!"Mr. Hako was one of David's distant relatives who became bosses in Golden Heart Hotel after the Hako family
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 9: Another Fool
This piece of news stirred the crowd as if a snake was released among them."Miss Spears loves Jayden," said one of the waitresses who once saw Bingle staring at Jayden contemptuously. "That's why she's doing all this. How else can a waiter pay 10 million dollars?"More people joined the gossip, giving Mr. Hako a chance to speak. "He just paid for membership? Ha! What's bullshit! Miss Spears, be wise and step back if you still love your job. Don't confuse this to one of those leftover situations where you got to speak for him.""Don't be ridiculous Mr. Hako!" Bingle replied as she took a few steps toward him. "How can I lie about such things?"While replying, Mr. Hako glanced at Kagern. "He's young with blue eyes and a nice physique. You are aroused when you see him so you're compelled to lie for him."Every waiter and waitress broke into laughter mostly because of how familiar Mr. Hako's answer was.They had heard it countless times and they knew that it was the other way around. H
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 10: In Trouble
Bingle didn't want another prolonged conflict so she said, "She's with a V-VIP client."The man wandered his eyes around but didn't see any VIP client. Just Bingle, a waiter and a waitress... plus a few gorgeous women in black. Thus, he felt like asking but Kagern raised his VIP card before the man could open his mouth. He too was tired of dealing with the Hako fools.First, it was David Hako cheating on him with his girlfriend and refusing to give him his money, then Mr. Hako from the hotel restaurant and lastly, this fool in charge of the Golden Pathway. He was tired of seeing their similar faces and listening to their similar arrogant voices.As for the man, he stepped back and bowed to Kagern when he saw the golden card in his hand. It had been 5 months since he saw another one of those cards. Many people bought membership of a million dollars but not even a dozen had bought the 10 million dollar one since the establishment of this hotel. So, though he knew Kagern to be a waite
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 11: Evil Bodyguards
"Bro, we're in trouble!"Upon hearing the word trouble, Kagern didn't want to hear the rest before jumping into the car and telling the guy holding the door for him the location to Eric's place. "Lorenzo Residential Area. Block 13.""Copy, sir!" replied the bodyguard as he closed the door and instructed the others to start the engines. On top of being his best friend, Eric was Kagern's editor. All his scripts were there. Thus, the fact that Erica was his twin sister didn't matter. Kagern didn't care bumping into Erica there or what. He just needed to save his manuscripts.Meanwhile, Eric continued explaining the situation. "Some guys in black just showed up at my door, called me a thief and locked me inside of my house," he said in an angry tone.Though it was a phone conversation and Eric could not see it, Kagern couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. "Called you a thief?"Eric let out a sigh before answering, "Sorry that I didn't tell you but the gangs from yesterday gave me a co
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 12: This Stupid Girl
Normally, Belinda could have got scared after seeing Kagern pinned on the ground, the culprits licking their lips and making such vulgar comments about her. However, she knew there was a group of skilled and strong men ready to step in for their rescue if things continued going south.That's why she kept quite and just glanced at Kagern... of course with a questioning look.Kagern was no fool. He could read all the questions on her face; one of them he deduced as, 'You're rich now. You have bodyguards. Why let these brats treat you like this?'He could only glance at Eric's house as a reply to her silent questions.Belinda, too, was no fool. She knew what he meant by gesturing at the house.Eric. Now that these guys said they were here to kill, he couldn't risk acting rashly. What if Eric was with one of them? If his bodyguards attacked the ones outside, the one inside might harm Eric. Bearing this in mind, he glanced in the direction he had left his bodyguards into so he could war
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 13: A Flashback
Kagern could see it from ten meters away, a few steps behind 5 girls who liked it when a person called them Naughty Girls. He was always told to mind his own business but he didn't think picking up a card for a classmate was something bad. That's why he picked it up and took a few fast and wide steps toward the Naughty Girls."Excuse me, miss!" he said as he tapped Karen on the shoulder. He was a few meters away when the card fell but he had seen who it fell from. Karen. Naughty Girls had earned themselves a reputation of being arrogant and spoilt. They thought themselves as not-on-the-same-level as other people at 4TA University. Now... now someone like Kagern was tapping on their leader's shoulder.They turned around all at once, wearing mockey expressions on their faces. They were ready to teach him a lesson. Kagern had no intention of being misunderstood so he hurried to explain himself. "You dropped this!" he said, his gaze fixed on Karen.To his surprise, Karen gave him a
Reclaiming my Rich-kid Status Chapter 14: Erica
As soon as Karen saw Kagern, her face brightened with a mischievous smile, turning into a wide grin as if met an old friend. "Oh! What a surprise!" she exclaimed as she walked towards him. Her bodyguards walked close-by. "I didn't know you're a thief in real life.Like usual, she wore a designer dress that hugged her womanly figure, as white as her silver hair and with a slit that left her right thigh exposed. 'Only if her actions were as decent as she looks!'With this thought, Kagern took a step to meet her, angered with her comment. He said, "I'm surprised that you still remember me. After all, you've bullied too many people in your life to remember their faces. But let me advise you, mind your words! I'm not a thief.""Ha! What are you doing here if you're not a thief then?""Heard you called my friend a thief and sent your men to kill him so I came," replied Kagern.By now, Karen was a few inches from him. She glanced at Belinda, then said, "Oh! So your friend is the thief? She

Chapter 52: Mrs. Coulter
"Get out of my house!" Mrs. Coulter shouted at Erio as she stood in the doorway, pointing out to make sure he saw the direction she wanted him to take. Erio stepped toward her, pleading, "Mrs. Coulter, please! Just tonight! I promise I'm gonna pay you tomorrow. Except this month, have I ever been late to pay the rent?"Mrs. Coulter burst into laughter at his words. "Never been late, uh? When did you pay me last month?"Last month, Erio only got late for just one day. He couldn't believe she still had that grudge, over just one day. It was time for him to burst into laughter, too, but he couldn't. Laughing at her would make the situation worse than it was. That's why he decided to keep pleading."I promise I'll pay you tomorrow before noon. Besides, I'm late for just 4 days. I can compensate you for them. Just... Please!"He had a manuscript he had been ghostwriting for Bernard. He was sure he would be done with it tomorrow morning, then get his payment at least 2 to 3 hours after sub
Chapter 51: In the Bathroom
Kagern couldn't help but burst out laughing. He said, "Oh! I would like to see you do that."If Kagern didn't have a back up plan, he wouldn't be being arrogant. He would be on his knees now, pleading for Bingle to be released. However, now he knew his father was working on it. Soon, Willy Williams would be the one begging him. His arrogant response made a scowl appear on Willy's face. He stepped toward him and said, "Do you think I'm kidding? Do you think I won't r*pe her? Listen, that bitch had ignored me for a long time. I'll make sure she pays for it. As for you, I advise you not to play arrogant in front of me if you love her. If you don't want me to punish her even more."Kagern stepped closer to him, too, a sign that he was not afraid of him. He said, "Hey, why don't you do it now? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Haha! I feel pity for you."Willy smashed the whisky glass he was holding to the ground and grabbed Kagern by the collar. "Who do you think you're talking to like tha
Chapter 50: Threats
Kagern's blood ran cold. Bingle's muffled whimpers and Willy's smug threat painted a horrifying picture.'What do I do?'He asked himself as he ran outside. He had to reach his convoy and go as soon as possible. "Where are you?" he asked, though he suspected it was at the Golden Heart Hotel. That's where he had left Bingle, after all. "At the Golden Heart Hotel," replied Willy. "Get here in 10 minutes, alone. Bingle is not here though. My men are taking her somewhere else. If you call police or anything happens to me, he's death will be on your hands.""Ten minutes it is. OK! I'm coming!"Willy guffawed.Kagern shoved the phone into his pocket, a familiar icy dread gripping him. Helping Jennifer had been a welcome respite, but this call was a brutal reminder of the viper's nest he still called a life. Willy Williams, the arrogant fool from Williams Family must have held a grudge on him after he rescued Bungle's father. But Kagern wasn't afraid. He had so many ways to teach that fo
Chapter 49: Phone Calls
Kagern approached Jennifer cautiously, the sterile white walls of the Surreal City Hospital amplifying the sound of her choked sobs. He'd never seen her like this – the ever-composed, arrogant receptionist reduced to a woman crumbling under her emotions. A sense of pity pricked at him. He remembered their first encounter; her sharp words and disdainful glare. Yet, he'd seen a different side of her – a woman terrified by Mr. Brooks, a woman he'd readily protected."Jenniffer?" he repeated, his voice barely a whisper.Jennifer flinched, startled from her grief. She whipped her head around, wiping furiously at her reddened eyes with the back of her hand. "Mr. McDenials?" she stammered, her voice thick with emotion. "I – I didn't expect to see you here.""It's okay to call me Jayden," he said gently, his concern evident. "What happened? I mean, if it's okay with you to tell me, why're you crying?"Jennifer hesitated, chewing on her lower lip. The carefully constructed facade she usually w
Chapter 48: Encounter With Jennifer
Kagern had told Bingle he was about to go to the hospital with Belinda, and yet she still kissed him passionately.Perhaps he might have gotten angry that she didn't listen to him, but he didn't. Instead, he kissed back, happy that she had taken that bold move. Come to think of it, was he really refusing because he was about to go to the hospital with Belinda? Maybe yes, but then again, no. It's because he was a virgin. Because all these things, kissing and sex, frightened him in some way. 'I should stop being a coward!'With this, Kagern reached for her waist, then slowly moved his hand downward.That's when Bingle pulled back and said, "That was a thank you." She jumped to her bed and added, "Thank you for everything. My parents are now safe and happy because of you. They also said they want to meet you. I would be happy."Kagern was kinda disappointed. Just as he got the courage, she pulled back. 'But it's tonight. There will be no escape,' he said to himself, internally, and op
Chapter 47: Passionately
The next morning, despite being Saturday, Kagern and Lilyon took Julie to see her mom and siblings. When they reached the police station, Carolina said she didn't want to see them, so they stayed behind while Julie was taken to see her. After that, Kagern and Lilyon escorted the little girl to her school, then made their way to Stanley Industries."Now you're the CEO, huh?" Kagern teased Lilyon as his convoy came to a stop outside the building. "Thanks to you!" she replied, readying herself to get out of the car."Go make me proud then!""Of course!"With this, Lilyon hugged him and stepped out of the car as Tharn held the door for her. She turned around and said, "I hope you come visit us again soon, right?"Kagern nodded his head. "Of course I'll! Just put things at the company back in order then call me. We can take some days off and go on a vacation or something."Lilyon raised her pinkie finger and asked, "Promise?"Kagern raised his and replied, "Promise!"He then watched he
Chapter 46: Her Picture
It had been 2 years since Kagern left Stanley Mansion... No! Since Carolina forced him to leave, but nothing had changed about the house at all. Only the faces around had changed. Carolina had fired the security personnel, the steward, the children's tutor… almost everyone after Mr. Stanley's death. Perhaps it was because they weren't as royal as they were to him, or because she didn't want anyone to question her plans to bully Lilyon and Kagern. In her plans to make them suffer. "Where's Julie?" asked Lilyon as soon as they entered the mansion. The steward, a man in his 40s with a mustache and few gray strands in his hair, pointed at the spiral stairs and said, "She's in her room, miss!""Does she know the news yet?""We haven't told her. She's still too young to understand. But she's been asking us where her mother and siblings are.""I see!"With this, Lilyon glanced at Kagern who followed her toward the staircase. "How do I break the news to her?" asked Lilyon as they climbed
Chapter 45: Another Slap
Of course Kagern couldn't just slap Alistair. Yeah! The young man had almost killed him and had added insults instead of apologizing. However, Kagern was not raised that way. Violence was not his thing.That's why he only sent Alistair's father their address and waited for him to come and slap him himself. As for Alistair, he had kept quiet, and was now sitting on the ground, shaking with fear.When Tharn approached him, the young screamed in fear that it made every person passing nearby turn their heads. "What's wrong?" asked Kagern. "I thought he was gonna slap me."Kagern couldn't just brush off the fact that Alistair had almost killed him and didn't apologize. He didn't make him feel pity at all. But then again, he understood that he was really frightened and decided to comfort him. "Don't worry!" he said, patting him on the shoulder. "No one's gonna slap you. Unless your father does it himself.”Alistair was on the verge of crying. He looked Kagern in the eye and said, "Plea
Chapter 44: 5 Slaps
After all the board members agreed on making Lilyon the new CEO if Kagern really transferred all his shares to her, the meeting came to an end.Carolina's secretary assisted them in signing the legal transfer of the said shares, and she was friendly in everything she did. Even a fool could see she was trying to worm her way into Lilyon's heart. "Should I keep her?" Lilyon asked Kagern when the secretary was busy arranging papers on a desk a few meters away from them. "She knows most of Carolina's secrets," replied Kagern. "She also seems desperate. Keep her for now and decide what to do with her after you're familiar with the CEO's work."Lilyon smiled at him, and said, "That's actually a great idea.” She didn't forget to add, "And thank you for everything.""I guess I have said a lot of your welcomes," Kagern joked, letting a smile climb over his face. "It's really nothing big. You're my sister. This is our father's legacy. You should have done the same anyway. It's only that I was
