******

Inside the VIP hospital room that was equipped with all the basic amenities of a bedroom, Frosh, unaware of what his men were currently thinking or discussing, stood awkwardly still, appearing scared to advance.

He no longer had the menacing aura of a don who had terrorized many; instead, he looked so frail, pale, and helpless at this moment, staring at the dull eyes of his blood-drained, pale brother lying pitifully and lifelessly on the bed.

His legs felt too heavy at this moment to move, seeing the heavily bandaged stump where Frosh Junior’s arm used to be.

This continued for what felt like an eternity before Frosh eventually clenched his fists and pushed himself to take a step forward.

Upon doing so, he forced open his dry and heavy, calling out hoarsely, "Br—brother."

Although his voice wasn’t loud, instead just barely above audible, Frosh Junior, whose spirit seemed to have long departed his body and who hadn’t heard even when Frosh entered, was jolted aw

    ***** ‘He still dared to be excited?’ Frosh Junior, on the bed, stared at his elder brother in disbelief and felt he was dreaming. He wanted to wipe his eyes and make sure he was seeing right, but then nothing would move, only making him realize that he had tried moving an empty air, as he was nothing more than a one-armed person now. In the next second, Frosh Junior’s eyes became filled with hatred as he growled. “Why are you laughing?!” Frosh was badly startled by this and he slowly stopped, focusing his gaze on his brother, confused about his sudden source of rage. “I—” “Are you that happy that I’m now in this condition and will no longer create trouble for you?” Frosh Junior inquired aggressively, making his elder brother freeze completely. Frosh couldn’t act nor react for a moment, instead, he stared blankly at his younger brother, refusing to believe he would think the way he just did. “You—you thought I was happy with your condition?“ He asked blankly, but then

    ***** “This—this…” Frosh’s junior eyes slowly brightened with a strong fervor after hearing his brother’s plan and his breathing quickened. The reason for his previous bitchy attitude toward his brother was that he thought he would never get his revenge when even his elder brother whom he always rely on couldn’t revenge on him, but hearing the flawless plan, his rage disappeared completely and he became excited. "But—but please promise me that you'll step in if the b!tch doesn’t get involved and help me capture the family of three. I want to take revenge with my own hands… hand!" He looked with desperation in his eyes and pleaded with hope, staring at Frosh, who hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. “What are we waiting for then? Let’s execute the mission already!” He urged and his brother hurriedly nodded his head before making a call.“I refuse to believe that you, a common prisoner would have any sort of relationship with such an important person, it must have be

This was what Xavier was doing, when from nowhere, a sudden cry for help rang out, snapping him back to reality.He frowned slightly upon hearing this plea, but since it had nothing to do with him and he wasn’t one to interfere in other people's affairs, he chose to ignore it.However, without any warning, hi

    *****Most of the people in the crowd had initially only joined in to hurl insults at Xavier, not out of true anger at him but because they heard others doing so and they did not want to stand out, yet, hearing him not denying the allegation, but even repeating what he had said, they went dumbstruck, finding it difficult to believe that someone would really curse a dying old man to death.Even Cassandra Blackwood, the dazzling beauty hadn’t been completely certain of the words that had drifted into her ears earlier and she had only acted more on instinct. But now, to think she hadn’t misheard…Everyone stared blankly at Xavier as if he were an alien, and this silence persisted for a moment before the crowd resumed their verbal assault.“How shameless!”“How evil!”“To actually curse someone’s grandfather right in front of his granddaughter—how audacious!”They hurled all sorts of insults and slurs at Xavier, but he remained unfazed, continuing to gaze calmly at the face that wa

    *****“Grandfather, how—how can you want someone like that, who probably doesn’t have any idea about treatment, to treat you?” Cassandra asked helplessly, staring at her grandfather in disbelief.“Moreover, I don’t even think there’s any truth in what he just said—it’s nothing but gibberish that could only be understood by fools like him!” She spat, then glared hatefully and aggressively at the still-composed Xavier.Just then, however, she heard heavy breathing beside her, compelling her to look, and upon realizing the heavy breathing came from her grandfather, whose face was now rapidly shifting between red, blue, and purple several times faster than earlier, and her anxiety returned and her eyes became filled with unshed tears.“Grandfather, grandfather, please don’t die on me, please! Is it him you want, I will—”“I’m not dying!” the old man, who seemed to be taking his last breath, abruptly snapped, glaring at Cassandra.“You—how dare you little brat call me a fool?”Cassa

I’m so aggrieved. I thought he would suddenly reveal himself to be someone we had all underestimated, but he’s just another one of those worthless acupunctur

    *****The place that was filled with the murmurs of the crowd and Cassandra's furious cries a second ago fell into a hushed silence in an instant and everyone gaped dumbly as if they had just seen a real-life alien.They stared at the old man, whom they had all assumed had already lost his life at Xavier's hands in a trance.‘Am I dreaming?’ ‘Did a ghost just come back to life?’ Many people thought blankly in stupefaction, and just at that moment, the old man who had just opened his eyes slowly sat up and amidst the stunned gazes, he sat in a lotus position and shut his eyes, appearing enigmatic in an instant.Everyone was further perplexed by the old man’s actions and they exchanged bewildered glances, trying to make sense of what was happening.‘He doesn’t look like the person on death’s door a moment ago.’ ‘Why does he look completely different from the dying old man from earlier?’ they all wondered and then slowly turned their gaze to Xavier.‘Could it be that he actuall

    *****Xavier, acting as though he hadn't just performed a miracle that would have made other doctors in the world become arrogant merely stared at the Old man, looking unfazed at the face of his appreciation.You…” He opened his mouth, wanting to tell the old man that there was no need to thank him, as he had only helped out of a casual impulse. But before he could get the words out of his mouth, Cassandra, who had been utterly stunned by her grandfather’s actions, rushed over and glared fiercely at Xavier before turning to her grandfather with a look of displeasure.“How can you be thanking this con artist who almost took your life, Grandfather?” she demanded with unhidden anger.The Patriarch of the Blackwood family was taken aback by his precious granddaughter’s words, then he glared at her, ready to chastise her. But before he could say anything, she continued.“Do you even know that this… this fraud and faker actually dared to stab your heart with needles, worsening your co

    *****David exhaled a long sigh before speaking. “Xavier… are you sure you can afford all this?”Before Xavier could respond, a small, sweet voice interrupted.“Uncle… you don’t need to buy the dresses for Little Lola,” the little girl said softly, her voice like a breeze through spring leaves. “Actually, Little Lola wouldn’t even be sad if we returned the one she’s wearing.”Her eyes sparkled, her smile serene and completely honest. “Just getting to wear this pretty dress and feel like a princess for even a few minutes… It’s more than enough to make Little Lola’s heart happy forever.”David’s throat tightened, and Sarah bit her lip to hold back the emotions surging in her chest.But Xavier…He knelt beside the little girl, his smile gentle as he patted her head with affection.“You don’t trust Uncle too?” he teased.Without missing a beat, Little Lola shook her head fervently.“Little Lola trusts Uncle very, very much!” she declared, the seriousness in her voice catching ev

    *****Back in High Fashion…A stunned silence reigned after Xavier’s casual declaration.“We’re taking everything.”The words still hung in the air, echoing in Amelia’s mind like a thunderclap.She gaped at Xavier. ‘Did he just say… everything?’ She blinked hard as if that would clear up the hallucination she was surely having.‘He couldn’t be serious. Could he?’Her eyes drifted toward the rack Xavier had pointed at—a rack holding nearly twenty high-end designer dresses. Each one is handcrafted, each one radiating exclusivity and elegance. While they didn’t have price tags—High Fashion rarely displayed them—she knew the average cost per dress was over $50,000.'That’s easily a million dollars,' she thought, almost swaying on her feet.If Xavier had strolled in wearing a Rolex wristwatch, with a polished entourage or air of power, maybe she wouldn’t have hesitated to believe him. But this man… this handsome-looking, modestly dressed customer… he didn’t fit the image. At all.

    *****Initially, everyone inside the luxurious Dior boutique was vibrating with anticipation, their eyes subtly trained on the glass doors of High Fashion across the street.They were waiting for the moment—that delicious instant when Xavier and his so-called “family of four” would come rushing out, eyes wide, mouths agape, clinging to each other in sticker-shock horror after seeing the prices of the items inside.Some had even prepped their phones, cameras open, ready to capture that fleeting expression of embarrassment and panic. A few were already composing sarcastic captions in their heads, eager to post the spectacle online and revel in the comment section of collective mockery.They had been convinced it was only a matter of seconds—maybe a minute at most. After all, what kind of people walked into High Fashion Boutique, where a single shoelace might cost a mortgage payment?But five minutes passed.Then six.Then seven.Still, no one emerged.“…Could it be that they fa

    ***** David's gaze dropped to his hands—wrinkled, toughened by labor, marked by time. His eyes shimmered with unshed tears, glistening beneath the store’s ambient lighting. Finally, in a soft, hoarse voice, he spoke: “…Alright, son.” He cleared his throat, then stood a little straighter. “I’ll pick something for myself. Something decent.” Xavier didn’t say a word, but the small upward curve of his lips spoke volumes. It was a smile of pride, quiet victory, and deep affection. David turned to Amelia. “Could you show me where the men’s section is? Something for… older men?” Xavier immediately let out a long-suffering groan and rolled his eyes. “Father, come on. You’re not that old, you know? Just find something that would suit the younger you. You might even surprise yourself.” David snorted and gave his son a playful glare, but didn’t argue. Deep down, he felt just a little lighter, a little freer. Amelia, smiling now with renewed warmth, nodded eagerly

    *****“Father, why don’t you have a look around? Pick something you like—anything at all.”David furrowed his brows immediately and gave his son a long, sideways glance. “Do I strike you as the kind of man who goes window shopping?” he grumbled. “Besides, I’m not exactly young anymore. I’ve got enough clothes to last me until the end of my days. You focus on yourself, your mother, and the little one. I don’t need anything new.”His tone was firm… blunt even, leaving no room for argument.Xavier studied his father silently for a few seconds upon hearing him. He had expected that reaction, yet it still left him a little speechless.Ultimately, he sighed with mild exasperation. “Dad…”He paused, a gentle frown creasing his brow.“Back when I was little until I went away, even when you were working day and night just to make ends meet, you never once splurged on yourself. Every dime you earned, you poured into the family. I still remember you always arguing with Mother about how ‘a

    *****Xavier didn’t reply to the sales assistant immediately.Instead, he turned gradually, his eyes softening as they settled on Little Lola. At this very instant, the young girl’s expression was alight with wonder.Her sparkling eyes, wide with amazement, were fixed intently in a specific direction. The longing shimmering within them was unmistakable.It was a gaze so pure, so filled with innocent yearning, that anyone watching could instantly recognize it—she had discovered something that had utterly captivated her heart.Without a second thought, Xavier followed the trail of her gaze.His eyes landed squarely upon a delicately displayed princess-style gown hanging under a spotlight.The dress was exquisite, crafted with a meticulous blend of pastel colors, and adorned with intricate embroidery that resembled blooming spring flowers. The lace hem rippled like waves frozen in time, and floral patterns danced along the fabric, giving the gown an ethereal, fairytale-like charm.

    *****At that exact moment, inside the pristine and silent interior of the High Fashion boutique, the sales associate… Amelia stood frozen in mild disbelief, her gaze currently locked on the four individuals who had just stepped through the glass doors.For a heartbeat, she genuinely believed her senses were deceiving her.The familiar chime of the doorbell had rung just a second ago, an event so rare it might as well have been mythical.In the entire stretch of weeks—perhaps months—she’d manned this boutique, the only times the entrance had opened were when she arrived for her shift, or during scheduled inspections from upper management.When the chime sounded just now, her heart had jolted in her chest, and her head had instinctively lifted, her eyes widening in hopeful anticipation. The stagnant air of the boutique had carried a different energy this time—one that made her pulse race ever so slightly.She had been employed here for close to half a year now, and in all that ti

    *****“Huh? Don’t tell me my eyes are deceiving me!”Inside the Dior boutique that Xavier and his family had just exited, a loud exclamation shattered the buzzing atmosphere. One of the sales reps stood frozen, her expression twisted in shock and disbelief.Her colleagues instantly turned toward her with a frown, clearly annoyed. “What’s the matter with you?” One of them inquired.“This…” The sales rep pointed toward the glass windows, her finger trembling slightly.“Aren’t those the poor paupers from a moment ago? Don’t tell me they’re actually trying to enter that boutique.”The moment her voice echoed through the store, all heads swiveled sharply toward the boutique’s glass doors. Like magnets, every gaze snapped toward the opposite side of the corridor—toward Xavier and his family.They were currently walking into the High Fashion boutique.Gasps erupted one after the other in the next second.“They’re trying to enter High Fashion? What do they think they’re doing in ther

    *****Sarah wasn’t just suggesting they leave. She was pleading. Her voice carried quiet desperation, a maternal instinct to protect her son from further escalation—even at the cost of her pride.It was the kind of voice that forced Xavier to pause. That kind of plea couldn’t be ignored.His chest rose and fell with labored breaths. Every fiber of his being screamed to retaliate, to put every single person in their place. But he swallowed it—barely.Instead, he took a deep breath, locking away the storm inside.His gaze turned frigid as he scanned every face in the room—memorizing them, engraving their expressions into his memory. He would not forget this. Not a single face would escape the reckoning.He turned around.“Let’s go,” he said quietly.And they moved.But the crowd wasn’t finished. Their parting words were even more venomous than before.“Idiots. Delusional morons who don’t know their place.”“Coming here to steal glances, probably to steal garments too.”“They
