"Being a little popular won't hurt; I would even be more popular in the future; I have to get used to it now," Jayson muttered under his breath, lost in his own thoughts. Little did he know that if he had taken the time to scroll through the comment section, he would have discovered the impending consequences of his newfound popularity. Unbeknownst to him, several female netizens were swooning over his handsome appearance, with some even going so far as to declare their love for him. Meanwhile, the more audacious individuals were fervently defending him, unintentionally fueling the animosity directed towards Jayson. As a result, he was unwittingly becoming the target of countless men in Jade City, destined to be their sworn enemy. Filling his tank, Jayson got into his car and drove to the Money-Doubling company. Jayson parked his car and made his way towards the Money-Doubling company. As he approached, he overheard a group of college boys pointing at him and whispering among them
Jayson's long legs and athletic physique were not just for show, a fact the group of thugs soon came to realize. "This guy runs pretty fast," one of the thugs grumbled resentfully. Despite relentlessly pursuing Jayson for the past ten minutes, they couldn't bridge the ever-widening ten-meter gap. Exhausted and gasping for breath, they finally gave up the chase. While proficient in fighting, these thugs were not accustomed to prolonged pursuits. Usually, their opponents would stand their ground, making this the first time they encountered such an audacious adversary who fled before a single blow was exchanged. Furthermore, they had little reason to fear the authorities in Jade City. The police force was notorious for its corruption, only motivated by monetary gain. As long as they avoided murder and no one paid to report their assaults, they were free to roam and wreak havoc without consequence. "I think that bastard has a car," one of them suddenly recalled the vehicle Jayson had a
Elena Wilson, once known as the fairy of Jade City, found herself overshadowed ever since Queen York returned from her studies abroad. As the heiress to the York family, the second wealthiest in Jade City, Queen York's presence captivated the bachelors of the aristocracy, leaving Elena in the shadows. Amidst the buzz surrounding Queen York, Jayson remained indifferent. He had no interest in the source of the commotion, for his focus lay solely on his high-stakes gamble worth a staggering $100 million. As the match was about to commence, Jayson's heart raced with anticipation. The fighter he had placed his bet on appeared undernourished and hungry compared to his adversary—a muscular and imposing figure. "Nervously, Jayson muttered, 'I hope this guy wins.'" As the bell rang, Well-Weather was suddenly struck with a powerful punch that landed directly on his face. The impact was so intense that Jayson's heart skipped a beat. His face turned ashen, and a gentle yet crisp voice spoke bes
If it weren't for the presence of other wealthy family scions, Hay Wilson would have instructed his bodyguards to roughen Jayson up. He harboured a strong dislike for Jayson and found conversing with him particularly distasteful. "If you can't afford it, just admit it. Instead of being poor and proud, I'll consider a deal only if you come up with $500,000," Jayson retorted impatiently, his face displaying his frustration. Hay Wilson's anger surged to the point where he trembled with rage. He responded icily, "You won't receive anything from me. After taking advantage of my cousin, you have the audacity to demand money from me? Do you believe the Wilson family is your personal meal ticket?" "Fine, if you're broke, then get lost. I can't stand conversing with people like you," Jayson coldly declared, having reached his limit with Hay Wilson. Enraged by Jayson's tone, Hay Wilson extended his arm, intending to grab Jayson. However, Jayson reacted swiftly, intercepting Hay Wilson's arm
Jayson's words barely stopped them from rolling on the ground in laughter, but when Jao stepped forward, resembling a skeleton wrapped in skin, it was the final straw. Some of the thugs found it so amusing that they ended up sprawled on the floor, laughing uncontrollably. "If you were aiming to impress, you should have hired someone more capable than a beggar who could be blown away by a gust of wind," the thug leader sneered, only to be interrupted mid-sentence as Jao sent one of his comrades flying with a single kick. Their eyes widened in astonishment as they fixated on Jao's minuscule legs. It was a miraculous defiance of common sense how he managed to launch someone into the air with such force using those tiny limbs. Without hesitation, Jao seized one of the thugs, wrenching his arm with a sickening crack. A piercing cry of horror filled the air, echoing the bone-breaking sound. The remaining thugs were petrified by Jao's ferocity, their fear overwhelming their senses. "Run!
Elena's eyes widened in shock. The question meaning left her baffled. But her confusion quickly turned to fury, causing her eyes to blaze red with rage. She unleashed her anger on Jayson, scolding him with a burning intensity."Jayson Wade! After everything I've done for you! I bought you clothes, shoes, a car, and provided a roof over your head. I even fed you! Without me, you would've been begging on the streets for your next meal. All I asked in return was your faithfulness!"Jayson responded with a cold retort, his words piercing through Elena's anger. "Do you think it's easy being married to a lunatic like you? None of what you've mentioned can compensate for enduring three years as your husband."Elena struggled to find her voice, stunned by Jayson's shamelessness and audacity. He was as thick-skinned as the walls of Zeus' palace, if not more. Before she could respond, Jayson added, "Forget it. I'll rise above this and ignore you."Jayson's words struck Elena with such force tha
Elena's expression grew sour as Jayson unexpectedly demanded food as soon as he sat down, despite not having seen his coursemates for the past three years.Caleb's dissatisfaction with a trash like Jayson, who would mock him and label him a failure, was evident. He cast a cold glance at Jayson and contemptuously remarked, "While it's true that none of my songs has charted on any official music charts, I am currently signed with Big 5 Entertainment. Once my new album is released, I am confident that I will become the biggest celebrity in Jade City."It's no surprise that Caleb failed; according to Jayson's memories, the album flopped. Wasn't that the company he wanted to purchase? Dream on!"Caleb is correct; Jayson, don't be shameless. You can't measure up to Caleb," Chloe added, and others joined in agreement.Jayson relaxed back in the chair, his voice filled with confidence. "Take a look at this," he said, pointing to his wrist, showcasing his extravagant watch. He then raised his
Jayson felt a sticky substance on his cheek and a foul stench invading his nostrils. Startled, he turned around, his eyes shooting towards the sky. Suddenly, a dog began barking, causing him to spring to his feet in fright."Hahaha! Trashy Jay, you're such a scaredy-cat," Butler Mark jeered.Jayson scanned his surroundings and realized he was inside the Wilson mansion. Did Elena abandon him in this field last night? The thought darkened his expression."You got lucky. Jimmy recognized you; my plan failed," Butler Mark declared, his voice filled with amusement. He let out a whistle, and the enormous dog a few meters away wagged its tail, following Butler Mark as they departed together.A chill ran down Jayson's spine, causing his teeth to chatter and his lips to tremble. He hurriedly rushed into the house, making a beeline for his room. He submerged himself in a hot bath, where he remained for twenty minutes, seeking solace from the unsettling cold.After hastily changing into a bathro
