*****

Bloodfang Viper stood in place, his lips twitching as he processed the words the guard had just spat at him.

‘Me… beg for a job, money, and an opportunity to meet your madam?’ he thought incredulously.

Then in the next second, a flicker of something cold and deadly flashed in his eyes… a murderous glint so brief it almost didn’t exist.

But for the security guard, it might as well have lasted an eternity.

In that fraction of a second, he felt like he had plummeted straight into hell.

He literally saw his life flash before his very eyes… a whirlwind of memories, as if death itself had grazed him. He felt blood, not on his skin, but in his mind, as if he were drowning in a sea of carnage.

In the next second, a cold sweat drenched his back, and he began to shiver uncontrollably.

“What… what was that?” he mumbled, his voice barely a whisper, his eyes losing every focus.

On the other hand, Bloodfang Viper breathes out slowly, forcibly calming himself, then finally…

    *****Xavier, completely oblivious to the fact that he had just narrowly missed crossing paths with the bloodthirsty lunatic sent to take his life, stood frozen in place at this moment.His brow furrowed deeply as he gazed at the chaotic scene before him — a massive, densely packed crowd shouting in desperation.‘What’s going on?’ he wondered in a stupor, struggling to reconcile this uproar with the quiet place he had left earlier.Right now, hundreds of people were yelling in unison, their voices a cacophony of pleas.‘Wait… are they here to cause trouble?’Xavier suddenly thought and in the next second, his eyes darkened, a sudden dangerous glint flickering across them.But just as quickly, he suppressed the instinct, his face returning to a neutral calm.‘No, this doesn’t seem like an attack,’ he reasoned, observing the crowd more carefully.There was no aggression, only panic, desperation, and plea.It was as if…“No point in overthinking this when I can just figure it

    *****A thick, pin-drop, and suffocating silence fell over like a blanket for a fleeting moment after Grace's voice echoed across the courtyard.All movement ceased.Every face, both the employees and the outsiders alike, went blank like an unused canvas, their eyes glued to Grace in utter absurdity.The words she had just spoken continued reverberating through every mind, looping endlessly and unable to stop.Then…The Sky Group employees struggled to suppress their laughter, their lips twitching uncontrollably.The crowd, on the other hand, however...“You…”A woman who had been sobbing rivers of crocodile tears suddenly lifted her head, blinking in shock at Grace.She raised a trembling finger toward her.“Did… did you just try to chase us away like a pack of stray dogs?” she stuttered, and in the next instant, all eyes snapped back to Grace, and the mood shifted violently.Their faces contorted with rage… their teeth ground fiercely against each other. And finally, the

    *****At this moment, an unnatural silence blanketed the entire area outside the Sky Group building.No one voiced a sound.No one budged.Everyone… both the former partners of Sky Group, the Sky Group employees and even Dorothy gawked, all of them staring in stunned disbelief at the old man who had just spoken.For what felt like an eternity, no one returned to their senses.Most notable of all was Grace, who found it the most inconceivable to process the threat she had just received.Her mind reeled.‘I should divide Project Echelon evenly and hand it over to you guys?’‘After all the treachery you people have committed? After you guys have merely harvested the ruin you sowed?’‘What an absurdity!’Her bewilderment vanished like a puff of air in the next instant, swiftly replaced by an icy coldness.Her eyes also sharpened, turning as frosty as the dead of winter.She cast a quick glance at the arrogant woman in her thirties who had first incited the chaos, then fixed a

    *****“Also, President Grace, I hope you haven’t forgotten how you humiliated us today, forcing us to kneel and beg without leaving us even the slightest shred of dignity. What do you think will happen if we were to also include this in our lawsuit?”"President Grace... heh, make your decision already. My family and I don’t have the luxury of wasting time here—we have more important matters to attend to."“I’m even starting to feel like I deserve the biggest share of this Project, so, it’s better you make your choice now before my company changes its mind.”“Hey, Little girl... what are you still standing there and gawking for like an idiot? Do we need to beg you to make your decision?”As though they weren’t the same people sobbing wretchedly moments ago, acting like their entire existence would crumble if Grace didn’t reinstate the partnership contracts, all of them, apart from their still-lifeless, now brazenly hurled threats at her.Not the slightest trace of humility.Not

    *****Seeing Xavier currently standing casually beside Grace, facing the crowd as though he hadn’t a care in the world, neither Grace nor Dorothy could react.They stood frozen, their minds replaying the chaos from earlier that day — when the pressure on Grace and Sky Group had nearly crushed them.Xavier had been the only one to stand unwaveringly by Grace’s side, shouldering all her burden as if it were his own.He had gone against every single person who had dared to go against her, fearing no one.Even Dorothy, despite her unwavering loyalty and respect for Grace, hadn’t dared to interfere. But Xavier? It was as though he had believed himself untouchable and beyond harm.Although he hadn’t fulfilled his promise of introducing Grace to the Blackwoods — who could have secured Sky Group’s entry into Projects Echelon- he had still miraculously convinced Mason to sign an agreement that severs all ties between his family and Sky Group.He had also forced the hypocritical partner

    *****Pin-drop, heavy silence settled over the vicinity like a suffocating fog for a moment after the man finished speaking. Then, as if drawn by an invisible string, every pair of eyes slowly shifted toward Xavier.The crowd's lips twitched.'What’s the worst way to be dared if not this?' They thought in unison.Xavier had just been forced into a tight corner.If he dared to repeat the insult, he wouldn't just offend the big bosses in front of him—he would also put Grace and her company in jeopardy, as they would undoubtedly move forward with the lawsuit.And in the end, he would face the consequences.But if he stayed silent or backed down, he’d be indirectly admitting to being a bastard, disowning his parents, and humiliating himself.There was no easy way out.Everyone grasped the gravity of the situation, and because of this, the employees of Sky Group held their breath, the tension in the air growing heavier as the weight of their predicament settled in like a stone in

    *****The crowd hurled all sorts of venomous words that could make even the strongest person want to crawl into a hole and never resurface at Xavier, their voices dripping heavily with mockery and contempt.Even though the insults weren’t directed at them, Grace and Dorothy turned pale, then for a reason they couldn’t understand, their faces darkened with rage.In the next second, their fists clenched, their eyes gleaming with deep-seated fury.Finally…"That’s enough!"Grace, unable to bear the bullying any longer, snapped, her sharp voice instantly slicing through the noise like a blade.The courtyard fell into a hush silence in the next moment, and then, slowly, the crowd turned to look at her, exchanging smug glances as their sneers grew wider."Look who’s trying to play the heroine," a woman with a face heavily painted with make-up chuckled, her voice oozing with contempt and mockery."You can’t even figure out how to save yourself right now, and you want to save someone

    *****Currently, all eyes were wide open in disbelief, all of them almost popping out of their sockets.One second.Five seconds.A minute.Nobody moved.Nobody breathed.It was as though the definition of time itself had disappeared, until finally…"H-He... he really dared to repeat those words?" someone stammered, his voice quaking with disbelief as he pointed a terribly shivering finger at Xavier.The comment was like a switch, jolting everyone back to their senses.In the following second…"He… he really dares to call us imbeciles again?!”“This… this must be a dream!”"I… I can’t accept this!""How dare he… how dare a stupid nobody insult us like this?!"The outside erupted in fury, while the inside… panic devoured the employees."We’re finished!""He… he has placed our company on the path of destruction!"Some even collapsed to the floor, overwhelmed with despair, while others wept bitterly.Back outside, Grace and Dorothy stood still, stunned into paralysis.

    *****Everyone stared, slack-jawed from Xavier to Miss Aria, her words echoing endlessly in their minds.Yet, seemingly unfazed, Aria only gazed calmly at Xavier, waiting for his reaction.But...She would be waiting forever, because, as it turned out, Xavier wasn't going to react at all.Of course, Xavier wasn’t a fool.How could he not understand what the higher-ups of High Fashion were trying to do?They were obviously desperately trying to tie down a big fish, unwilling to let the customer who had just spent fifty million dollars walk away scot-free.What stupid "sole control rights"? What "50% off every future purchase"?All of it — every so-called benefit — was just bait to ensure Xavier would make High Fashion his exclusive brand for spending, splurging, and showing off his wealth.However, it seemed Xavier was the only one who immediately grasped this, or... no, everyone else understood it too.They were just simply too blinded by the sheer flex.After all, what ki

    *****"The volume of items you purchased is so enormous that… that it will take more than a full day just to pack them. Moreover, we’ll need a long truck to transport everything."Dead silence fell over the room once again, and every heart skipped a beat.'The volume of the purchased items wouldn't even fit in regular transport.'‘If that wasn't the ultimate flex, then what was?’Around him, the women, who moments ago had sneered and laughed, were now gazing at Xavier with hearts in their eyes, their stares practically devouring him.‘So handsome! So powerful!’Daisy, the young lady who had been mocked in the Dior store earlier for not knowing about High Fashion, could barely restrain herself.Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs as she fantasized about throwing herself into Xavier’s arms.Their boyfriends, their male companions, noticed this shift, and their faces turned an ugly shade of green.But none of them dared to voice their anger.Not a single one, because th

    *****Meanwhile, Miss Lin, the elegant Dior’s supervisor.Right now, her face was pale, her usually sharp eyes dulled with regret.She had instantly believed Roxie's story and had suggested Amelia’s firing without a second thought—all because she, too, had assumed Xavier was a pauper unworthy of patience.‘Would things have been different if I hadn't judged him so quickly?’ The thought gnawed at her, biting into her pride, her stomach churning.Yet no tears came. Only a deep, hollow sense of dread.Meanwhile, standing just a few steps away, Aria Wynn—the unflappable supervisor of High Fashion—was no better.For the first time in her professional life, her mind was in chaos.Aria, who had built her reputation on her calm, her poise, and her unshakable demeanor, was now battling the overwhelming urge to simply collapse into a chair.She tried everything to steady herself—deep breaths, mental chants, tightening her fists—but nothing worked.Finally, she gave up.Instead, she s

    *****Never in her life had Roxie imagined she would one day kneel down in public, kowtowing, groveling, and begging at someone’s feet—much less offering herself as a servant.Yet here she was.And the worst part?She hadn’t even realized it.If anything, right now, Roxie was trapped in a storm of devastation, pain, and unbearable regret, unable to comprehend how things had spiraled so horrifically out of control.Just some minutes ago, Xavier and his parents had walked into her store of their own volition… calm, polite, and willing to spend their money there.But she and everyone there, blinded by prejudice and contempt for anyone who looked poor, had chased the family of four away as though they were nothing but filth tarnishing the presence of the wealthy ones.And now?Not only had she lost the opportunity to earn a million and a half dollars in commission alone, but she had also thrown away the chance for a promotion she had always longed for—dreamed of.No, worse.She

    *****The receipt machine had long since fallen silent, and now the entire room followed suit.‘That’s true,’ everyone thought in unison.If Dior hadn’t turned Xavier and his family away if they had simply treated them with basic respect, that fifty million dollars would have been their sale.The realization hit like a truck and in the next instant, pity welled up among the spectators—not for Xavier, not for Amelia, but for Dior’s boutique because it was their loss.How could they be so blind?But the person almost feeling the most pain?Undoubtedly, it was Miss Lin, the supervisor of Dior’s boutique.Up until now, she had been frozen, stuck somewhere between shame and horror.But now, now that the full implications had sunk in—her face turned ghostly pale.Her mouth opened and closed wordlessly as she stared at Roxie—the very person responsible for this catastrophe."You… you…" she stammered, raising a trembling hand to point at the woman. "What have you… what have you don

    *****Having been forced to fend for herself since she was old enough to walk, Little Lola knew all too well the value of money.Fifty million dollars, however, was a number too vast for her young mind to grasp.Yet none of that mattered.She didn’t need to understand the math to revel in the moment.She had witnessed how these so-called "adults" had sneered at her uncle, spat venom at her adopted grandparents, and treated them like dirt beneath their feet.Now?Now she was grinning from ear to ear, her little chest puffed up with pride, her cheeks practically glowing as she soaked in the stunned faces around her.Justice tasted sweet, even if she couldn’t calculate the exact price tag.And finally—Miss Aria Wynn, High Fashion’s supervisor.To be fair, although Miss Aria Wynn had remained composed throughout the drama, her elegant posture unwavering, that didn’t mean she was immune to doubt.Even she—sharp, astute, and battle-hardened in the world of luxury fashion had ne

    *****‘Payment successful?’The simple, mechanical phrase echoed like a thunderclap in everyone’s mind, reverberating again and again.Absolute disbelief filled the store.No one! Not a single soul in the room—not even Xavier’s parents had thought the payment would ever succeed.That amount of money… it wasn’t something ordinary people even dreamed of seeing in a bank account. And even if, by some miracle, they had it, who in their right mind would drop it all on clothing?It was the kind of wealth that could elevate a struggling family into the ranks of the upper class overnight.Yet, here it was—casually spent on nothing tangible, but… clothing.The silence that gripped the boutique was deafening.No one blinked.No one breathed.No one even dared to think.The only sound was that of the receipt printer, whirring tirelessly as it spat out a long, seemingly endless ribbon of proof.Proof that none of them could deny.The receipt unspooled like a slow-motion declaration

    *****“Mister,” Miss Aria Wynn’s gentle yet commanding voice interrupted. “Are you still interested in completing the transaction?”The question, so casually spoken, instantly landed like a thunderclap in every ear.Everyone, no matter who fell silent again, and then they turned to the poised supervisor, wondering what her intentions were.Ultimately, someone whispered, “She’s… probably just trying to confirm the manager’s theory.”“Huh”The murmur spread, reaching every ear, and enlightenment sparked.The employees of Dior, especially those who had long coveted Amelia’s enviable position, brightened with anticipation.Roxie in particular lit up like a Christmas tree.She had long been watching Amelia from the sidelines, green with envy.While her own role was capped at the level of boutique manager, Amelia, who barely even worked, lived in luxury.Her paycheck? It was five times her own, and yet she never even lifted a finger, never pitched in, and never hustled.It was a

    *****All attention veered to Roxie, whose words had taken on an almost theatrical flair.Miss Aria raised a brow, unimpressed but curious. “Please, elaborate.”Roxie’s face lit up like she had just been invited to audition for a lead role.Then, with pride swelling in her chest, she jabbed a finger toward Amelia.“If my thought is correct… which most definitely is, she must’ve noticed how our boutique kicked out this bunch of beggars. So, she’s trying to fabricate an extravagant sale to protect her job.”“Hmmm…” all brows rose, and Roxie continued.“She hasn’t made a single sale since she joined your company. Think about it. If she stages this fake purchase, even if the transaction fails, it’ll look like she’s indispensable, since the price of this purchase is something none had ever achieved before.”Roxie smirked, her voice brimming with smugness.“When the higher-ups at High Fashion see a failed transaction notification for fifty million dollars, they’ll most likely assum
