"Brother… this is your car?" he asked, his voice almost a whisper.

Elijah nodded casually. "Yes. Get in.”

Felix swallowed hard, staring at the expensive SUV once more before finally opening the door and slipping inside. The interior was just as breathtaking—plush leather seats, a state-of-the-art dashboard, and the scent of pure luxury.

Elijah got into the driver’s seat, adjusting himself as Felix sat stiffly beside him.

"Brother, I swear if you carry me along and help me out, I'll be loyal forever and ever," Felix said, his voice filled with raw sincerity. "I promise."

Elijah smirked, glancing at him. "We'll see."

Then, as he started the engine, he asked, "Have you eaten anything?"

Felix shook his head quickly. "No, I'm even hungry.”

After leaving the store, Elijah drove the car to a high-end restaurant. Once they arrived, he parked the vehicle and led Felix inside. As they settled into a comfortable booth, Elijah turned to his friend and asked, “What are you going to eat today?”

    "I promise I'm not selling," Betty said, raising her hands in defense. "I'm giving them to that lady and her boyfriend who sit behind us in class. They asked me for them."Sierra nodded. "Okay, you can take them."Betty smiled. "Thank you."As she tucked the invitations into her bag, Sierra leaned back with a thoughtful expression. "After the event, I'm planning to buy a car.”"A car?" Betty's interest piqued instantly.Sierra nodded. "Yeah. I talked to Elijah about it. I was supposed to go with him to check out options, but now... our conversation has kind of limited. I think he's still mad at me."Betty sighed. "Give him a bit of time. Maybe tomorrow at the event, you could talk to him or something."Sierra nodded. "I will."And just like that, time moved forward, and soon, the next day arrived—the day of the grand event.After waking up, Elijah checked his time before grabbing his phone, scrolling through it for a while.

    At the Dominion Group headquarters, the atmosphere was abuzz with excited chatter about the upcoming party. In one corner of the bustling office, groups of workers gathered around water coolers and in break rooms, discussing every detail of the event."I heard all the big shots have been invited," one worker said, lowering his voice conspiratorially. "Even the top executives are expected to show up, not to mention some major names from the business world."Another employee nodded vigorously. "Yeah, the tickets sold out within minutes. I even heard that a hundred extra invitations were given to our staff and key partners. It's going to be huge!”A third worker, adjusting his tie, added, "I heard the Valencia family is involved, too. Their sponsorship is massive—almost like a stamp of approval for the whole event."The excitement was palpable, and as more details were exchanged—about the luxurious venue, the celebrity performances, and the charity angle for the orphanage donation—the wo

    The rain was pouring heavily that night, drumming against the streets and rooftops with relentless force. A young man, his stylish hair plastered to his forehead, sprinted through the downpour, the rain soaking him to the bone. His old clothes clung to him as he ran towards the gate of the big house across the street. Bang! Bang! Bang! Reaching the large black gate, he knocked hard, the sound barely audible over the storm. He knocked again, louder this time, desperation creeping into his voice as he called out, "Come and open the gate! The rain is beating me—hurry up!” From the other side, a voice responded, gruff but amused, "Who wants to break the gate?" The gate creaked open, and the security guard peered out. "Oh, it's you," he said, recognizing the drenched figure. The young man didn’t wait for further conversation. He rushed through the gate, water splashing off him as he passed the guard. In the compound, under a white canopy, a sleek and elegant car—a lady’s car—

    Elijah felt a sharp pain pierce his heart as Sophia’s words sank in. His face tightened with disbelief and anguish. "I disgust you? How, Sophia? Didn’t I try my best to do everything you requested?" he asked, his voice trembling with a mix of confusion and hurt.Sophia scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Requested? Try hard my foot. Are you the one taking care of me, or am I the one taking care of you, Elijah? Bold of you to think I'm in love with you." She sneered, her words biting. "I'm 25, and you're just 20. You're a kid, Elijah. Do you think I would ever be proud to point to a low, poor kid like you and call you my boyfriend? I'd be ashamed."Elijah stood there, stunned, each word cutting deeper than the last. He had known he was younger than Sophia, but he thought they had loved each other. After all, they had been dating for months, and she kept telling him his age never mattered—didn't that mean something? How she was keeping herself till they got married first. Wasnt that also somet

    Elijah’s eyes darkened with frustration and anger, his chest tightening as Sophia’s words cut deeper. “I got some of those with my money too, Sophia! You can’t just take everything away from me!” he argued, his voice rising in anger. “You don’t get to tell me what I can or can’t take. I worked hard for what little I have!”But before he could say more, Damian stepped forward, his presence looming large as he towered over Elijah. With a smug grin, he placed a hand on Elijah’s chest and pushed him back. "Watch your tone, kid," Damian warned, his voice low and menacing. "You want to argue with her, you argue with me first. And trust me, you don’t want that." His eyes narrowed, his threat clear as he glared at Elijah.Elijah’s eyes filled with pain as he looked past Damian, locking his gaze on Sophia. His voice trembled,“Sophia, after everything we’ve been through, this is how you treat me? Like trash? Like I never mattered to you?”He took a shaky breath, his heart aching with betraya

    Elijah hesitated for a moment, staring at the foreign number on the screen. Something about it felt off, but curiosity got the better of him. Slowly, he pressed the "answer" button and brought the phone to his ear."Hello?" he said, his voice wary.Almost immediately, a deep voice on the other end responded. "Hello, Elijah."Elijah frowned. "Who’s this?" he asked, a mix of confusion and irritation in his tone.There was a brief silence, just a few seconds, but it felt much longer. Then the voice spoke again, calm and deliberate. "Happy Birthday, Elijah."Elijah froze, his heart skipping a beat. "Happy Birthday?" he echoed, shock washing over him. "How do you know my name?" His mind raced—what birthday? He hadn’t celebrated his birthday in years, not since everything fell apart.The voice on the other end continued, as if it hadn't heard his confusion. "Happy 21st birthday, son. Daddy and Mommy wish you the best in life.”The voice on the other end continued, as if it hadn't heard his

    Felix stared at Elijah in disbelief. "You'll help me?" His voice was barely above a whisper, as if he couldn’t believe his own ears.Elijah nodded. "So far as you'll be loyal."Felix’s eyes lit up instantly. "Ah! I swear, I'll be loyal to you. If you say stand, I'll stand. If you say sit, I'll sit. Even if you ask me to kill, I'll kill."Elijah chuckled, shaking his head. "No killing. Just loyalty." He gave Felix a once-over and sighed. "You know what? Your clothes aren’t looking good. Pick some nice ones, then let’s get some shoes too. After that, I’ll take you to my place so you can shower.”Felix’s face broke into a huge grin, his hands clasped together as he nodded. "Thank you, brother. Thank you so much!"Elijah gave a small nod, then asked, "Where do you stay?"At that, Felix scratched his head awkwardly, avoiding Elijah’s gaze. "I don’t really have a place… I just sleep in uncompleted buildings, wherever I can find."Elijah's expression shifted. He couldn't help but feel a twin

    After a moment of thoughtful silence, Elijah continued, “Convey the message about the orphanage giveaway to the attendees and ask for their support. Even if they contribute little by little until it exceeds a million dollars, that will be good. I’ll personally add a million dollars to ensure that the donation is expanded even further.”Isla nodded, making notes on her tablet. “Understood, Master. I’ll draft the message and ensure that our communications highlight both the charity aspect and the need for community support.”Elijah leaned back, his gaze steady. “Good. Let’s make this event not only a success for our company but also a significant contribution to those in need.”Isla replied, “Yes, Master. I’ll see to it immediately.”Meanwhile, at Chris' place,he leaned back in his chair as he flicked the ashes from his cigarette, the smoke swirling lazily in the air as his eyes studied the invitation card Sierra had sent him. He wasn’t one for sentiment, but this one had his attention.

    Sierra refreshed herself and emerged looking absolutely radiant—her hair perfectly styled and her makeup flawlessly done. She headed straight into her personal studio room. Inside, soft ambient lighting set a calm mood. On a small desk sat her microphone and the sound system, ready to play the backing beat for her practice session. Her friend Betty settled into a comfy chair nearby, watching intently as Sierra prepared.Sierra took a deep breath, adjusted the mic, and started to set up her headphones. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind.“Oh damn,” she muttered, glancing at her phone.Betty looked up, concerned. “What’s wrong?”Sierra sighed, a mix of regret and exasperation in her voice. “I promised to go live days ago—I even forgot about it. I have 3 million followers now; I really should have gone live to interact with them.”Betty raised an eyebrow. “So, you want to do it now?”Shaking her head, Sierra replied, “For now, it’s time for my practice. Maybe after my event—wit
