Elijah glanced at the money in her hand and let out a soft chuckle. "Sierra, really, it’s fine. Keep your money. I’m not worried about it.""But I am," she insisted, holding the money closer to him. "You just paid 18,850 dollars because of me. That’s not something small I can just brush off. I’ll pay you back."Elijah looked at her determined face and sighed, realizing she wasn’t going to let it go easily. "Alright," he said, raising his hands slightly in surrender. "How about this—you keep your cash for now, and if it’ll make you feel better, we can talk about settling it later. Fair?”Sierra hesitated, clearly wanting to insist further, but eventually nodded. "Okay. But I mean it, Elijah. I’m going to pay you back every cent."Elijah smirked lightly and replied, "We’ll see.”After settling the bill, Elijah and Sierra walked toward the exit together. The soft hum of conversation and clinking glasses from the restaurant faded as they made their way down the grand staircase.Halfway d

Sierra’s eyes widened at his words. Boyfriend? Her heart skipped a beat, and for a moment, she felt uneasy at the title. But as she glanced at Elijah and realized he said it to shield her, gratitude quickly replaced her discomfort.The woman crossed her arms. “Alright then, how are you planning to settle this?”The woman frowned, inspecting the damage carefully before naming a price. “It’ll be $5,200 for the repairs.” Sierra’s jaw dropped when she heard the woman mention $5,200. She stared at the relatively minor damage on both cars, her disbelief evident. “That’s way too much for something like this,” Sierra began, her tone indignant.Before she could continue, Elijah gently placed a hand on her arm. “Don’t worry,” he said calmly, cutting her off. Turning back to the woman, he added, “I’ll pay the amount you requested.”Without hesitation, Elijah pulled out his phone. His fingers moved swiftly, and within moments, he showed the woman the transfer confirmation. “It’s done,” he said

When they reached the car, she noticed the M5 badge on the back. "This car?" she asked, looking at Elijah incredulously.Elijah nodded, unlocking the doors with a beep. "It’s starting to drizzle harder. Get inside." Without waiting for her response, he got into the driver’s seat.Sierra hesitated for a moment, staring at the car in disbelief, then quickly opened the passenger door and slipped inside. As soon as she settled into the seat, she was hit with a wave of shock.The interior was immaculate—soft leather seats, a faint new-car smell, and even some protective plastic still covering parts of the dashboard. The car felt warm and welcoming.Her hand ran lightly over the armrest. "Is this a new car?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.Elijah nodded casually as he adjusted the settings on the touchscreen. "Yeah. Just got it today.""Today?" Sierra turned to him, her eyes wide. "Is this yours?"Elijah glanced at her briefly and smiled. "Yeah, it’s mine.""You bought this tod

Meanwhile, as they were driving, Sierra couldn't help but glance at Elijah every now and then. His focused expression, his hands steady on the steering wheel, and the way he seemed completely absorbed in the road—everything about him felt so composed and assured.Elijah, however, was entirely focused on the road, his attention fixed ahead. He didn’t notice Sierra’s gaze, as his mind was on the drive, ensuring they got to his place safely.A few minutes later, noticing the silence in the car, Elijah turned to Sierra and broke the stillness with a casual question."So, when are you going live again?" he asked, his voice light and easy.Sierra blinked, momentarily caught off guard by the question. It took her a second to realize what he meant, then she chuckled softly. "Oh, you mean my TikTok live?" she replied, her tone more relaxed now. "Probably tomorrow or the day after. I haven't decided yet."Elijah nodded, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "You seem pretty popular there.

Elijah glanced at Sierra as the car glided smoothly through the quiet, lavish streets of the estate. "So, you were saying?" he asked, pulling her attention back."This is where you stay?" Sierra asked again, her voice laced with disbelief.Elijah nodded casually. "Yes, just moved in here. We're heading to the Crown View section—that's where I stay, actually."Sierra's eyes widened as she looked at the grand houses lining the street. "You keep shocking me," she murmured, still trying to process everything.Elijah chuckled softly. "Don’t be shocked, Ms. Lane. It’s nothing," he said lightly. A few moments later, he stopped in front of a large, modern gate. Pulling out a remote, he pressed a button, and the gate opened smoothly. He drove into the compound and parked the car."We’re here now," he said, turning off the engine before stepping out of the car.Sierra followed, stepping out hesitantly. Her eyes roamed the massive compound in awe. Wait…is this guy even richer than Daniel? The th

As they sipped their coffee, a loud clap of thunder roared outside, rattling the windows. Sierra flinched slightly, glancing toward the sound of the storm. The rain was now pouring heavily, the rhythmic patter almost drowning out the sound of the TV.She turned her gaze to Elijah, curiosity flickering in her eyes. “So… what about your parents? Where are they?” she asked softly.Elijah’s expression remained calm, but his eyes held a brief, unreadable glimmer as he looked at her. “They’re not here,” he said simply, his voice steady.Elijah’s expression remained calm, but his eyes held a brief, unreadable glimmer as he looked at her. “They’re not here,” he said simply, his voice steady.“Not here as in…?” Sierra tilted her head, trying to understand.Elijah’s expression softened as he leaned forward, placing the coffee cup on the table. “I’ve never seen my parents before,” he said, smiling faintly, though it didn’t quite reach his eyes.Sierra’s brows knitted together, her gaze filling w

She reached for her phone, lying on the bed beside her. As her fingers swiped across the screen, she then remembered the mysterious gifter, FlibbityBoo. She had sent him a message the day she received the gifts, hoping to express her gratitude. With a flicker of anticipation, she opened her inbox.Her heart sank for a moment as she was greeted with a sea of thousands of unread messages from her followers and admirers. She sighed and quickly typed FlibbityBoo into the search bar, relieved as the conversation thread popped up.The message she had sent before stared back at her, untouched, unanswered. He never replied, she thought, a small wave of disappointment washing over her. She tapped on the chat box and hesitated for a moment, then typed a simple:"Hello?”Her thumb hovered over the send button for a second before pressing it. The message was sent, joining the previous one in silence.Sierra placed the phone down and exhaled deeply, unaware of the coincidence surrounding her myste

Elijah gave a slow nod. "I understand, but I'm with someone who's sitting there."The security shook his head. "No, please. It doesn’t work that way. You can’t sit there just because you’re with someone who has access."Just then, a familiar voice cut through the air."What’s going on? Elijah?"A loud, amused laugh followed.Elijah turned and saw Daniel Everhart, a smirk plastered across his face.Daniel walked closer, still smirking, and asked, "What’s going on?"The security guard, noticing that Daniel was from the VIP section, straightened up slightly and replied, "He was trying to enter the VIP section, but he doesn’t have access.”Daniel laughed and then began to mock Elijah.Elijah remained expressionless as Daniel laughed mockingly."You think getting a nice haircut and a suit can give you access to VIP?" Daniel scoffed, shaking his head. "Are you important enough to sit among us? Do you even know the kind of guests in there? My dad, the eldest madam of the Valencia family, and

As the convoy smoothly entered the venue, Sierra reached into her purse and pulled out her invitation card, handing it over to Elijah."Please hand it over to them," she said with a small smile. Although she could have gone inside without presenting an invitation, she felt it was only right to give it to them.Elijah saw it as a perfect opportunity to get Felix inside without any hassle. He nodded and stepped out of the car, holding two invitation cards in his hand as Celestine’s cars continued their way in.Walking towards the security checkpoint, Elijah handed over the invitation cards. "Ms. Valencia asked me to give these to you," he said calmly.The security guards exchanged glances before nodding respectfully. His composed presence and association with Celestine made them assume he was part of the Valencia family. Without hesitation, they allowed him through.Not far behind, another car carefully approached. It was Felix, driving Elijah’s car as planned. Unlike the luxury vehicle

He quickly answered the call, and Celestine's voice came through.“Elijah, sorry for the late call. Had a meeting. Are you ready for the event?”Elijah nodded, even though she couldn’t see him. “Yes, been waiting for your call.”“Where do you stay so we can pick you up?”Elijah shook his head slightly. “No, no. Tell me where I should meet you guys.”Celestine gave him the location, and Elijah replied, “Alright.” He then ended the call and stepped out of his room.The moment he got out, he spotted Felix standing near the door, already dressed and waiting. His suit was perfectly in place, and he carried himself with newfound confidence.“You look good, brother,” Felix said with a nod of approval.Elijah thanked him with a small smirk. “You too.” Then, after a brief pause, he asked, “Can you drive?”Felix nodded. “Yes, very well.”Elijah gave a short nod. “Good. Here’s what will happen. I’m meeting Ms. Valencia, and I can’t take you along right now. So we’ll drive to the location she men

Betty leaned toward Sierra, whispering, “This is next-level treatment.”Sierra just smiled, glancing out the tinted window as the city lights passed by.Sierra took out her phone, casually checking her post, but the moment she saw the numbers, her eyes widened in shock."Seventy thousand likes already?!" she muttered, scrolling down. The post had exploded with engagement—over fourteen thousand comments in just a short time.She clicked on the comments, skimming through them."Omg, you’re so beautiful, Sierra!""See you at the event, queen!""On my way right now! Can’t wait to see you perform!”"That dress is FIRE! You’re gonna shut it down tonight."Betty, noticing Sierra’s expression, leaned over. "What’s up?"Sierra turned the screen toward her. "Look at this! I didn’t think it would blow up this fast."Betty grinned. "Girl, you're a star. The whole city is waiting for you tonight!"Sierra exhaled, feeling the weight of the excitement settle in. Tonight was going to be huge.By 7:30

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

"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. Eventually, he got down from his bed and headed to the washro

"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?”Fel

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.
