..When Bernard saw Kara kiss Landon on the cheek his expression immediately became ugly.His smile of only a second ago was now nowhere to be seen.Bernard silently gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He was very angry.‘Just why did she have to give this trash a kiss on the cheek?’Bernard glared at Landon with hatred and deep jealousy. It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that if glares could kill people, Landon would’ve already been six feet under.At this moment, Bernard could not help but wish Landon nothing but death. Just what is going on here?! He has just spent twenty thousand dollars to get a gift for Kara but what he got in return was only just a ‘thank you’ from Kara.Meanwhile, this trash had spent a few hundred dollars to get Kara the fake of an expensive necklace that was far less expensive than his gift yet Kara had kissed Landon on the cheek.Just where did he go wrong? How is it that Kara never seems to hold him dear as she did with Landon?Bernard was jus
..Realizing ‘Godfather Wayne’ was the name of the man in charge sent shivers running down everyone’s entire spine.Who did not know who Father Wayne is?Father Wayne was the leader of all criminal organizations in Dimvale City. It would not be an understatement for someone to refer to him as the King of the underworld.He is a person known to be very ruthless and cold to his enemies. One of the main reasons he is feared is because he’s known for making sure those who offend him are punished accordingly. In other words, to offend the man is no different from offending the devil himself and words go by that this man was not known for not joking with his profit.Since the birthday party had somehow led to his most expensive drink being broken in his bar didn’t this mean they have offended him?Just the thought made all of them terrified.Kara did not know when her birthday had suddenly gone from bad to worse in just a few minutes. How are they supposed to get out of this mess?Xander i
..Just a minute ago everyone was convinced that with Xander here they would all be saved but things were not going as planned.They were all shocked to find out that Xander’s father was finding it hard to pay the 1.5 million dollars.“Xander is everything okay?” Tricia asked feeling worried.“I-I don’t understand…” Xander had caught his phone with a dazed expression. “Why can’t he pay the 1.5 million dollars?”Everyone was shocked by the sudden disappointment. Xander, who was supposed to be their capable savior turned out to be no different than them. Isn’t Xander’s father supposed to be worth tens of millions of dollars?“That’s five minutes gone. You all now have 55 minutes to get my money!” Godfather Wayne reminded them sternly.Hearing this everyone became frightened once more.“Bernard can’t you save us from this?!”Everyone looked at Bernard with hopeful eyes.Bernard is rich. After all, he’s the one who had given Kara the most expensive gift in the entire party. If there’s an
..While everyone had incredulous expressions as they stared at Godfather in awe, Godfather Wayne was actually sweating buckets right now.He was simply too terrified.He had just received a call from the all-powerful Eve Quinn known to be the representative of the family of the shadows in Dimvale City.He had still not recovered from the shock of receiving a call directly from her but he got another shock immediately after.Eve Quinn was very angry at him and the reason is because she made him understand that he currently has the heir of the family of the Shadows captured among the students he is holding.Such a realization nearly gave him a heart attack due to the sudden fear of his life.‘Thank goodness I haven’t done anything because today may have been my last day on earth!’There’s no way the King family would let him keep living if he had hurt their heir.As the king of the underworld, he was among the very few influential people in Dimvale city who knew about the King family.
..Landon was stunned at the moment. He did not expect Kara to spot such loopholes. She had seen the flaw through Xander’s lies.To Kara, some things did not make sense. It was clear she was not happy with Xander and his friends but she smelled something fishy. Almost as if Xander was lying. So many things did not add up.“What rubbish are you talking about? Tell me were you the one who was responsible for our freedom then?” Xander became defensive at this point as he acted annoyed.Xander was under so much pressure at this point but he was betting so much on luck at this moment. As far as the real person responsible for their freedom did not come outside with proof then he would be safe.Kara knew her parents were not responsible for their freedom so she replied. “No.”“So what are you saying? If you are not responsible do you know the person responsible?”Kara frowned without saying anything.Her reaction answered Xander’s question.“I thought so. Just stop causing a fuss where th
..Time flew by so fast and before Landon knew it he was back to the boy’s dormitory.The boys were all trying to decipher who must have been responsible for their freedom but after so many attempts they could not come up with any guess on who it was.“Wait if it wasn’t Xander then who was responsible for saving us then who did?”“Well since we don’t know we should not keep dwelling on it. Kara might be right. Xander may not have been responsible for our freedom, she may also have been wrong but the important thing is that we all came out of that tough situation alive.”Landon did not want to keep dwelling on the matter since he was unwilling to reveal his identity so he tried to convince his friends to forget about the matter.They listened to Landon so everyone decided to go right to bed.Landon fell to the bed feeling different. Unlike before when going to sleep, he would think of how to survive the next day by thinking of what to eat and pay bills, however, this time was differen
..Mr. Quinton was known to be a very strict class instructor.He made it clear that their class would always be an open communication where he could ask the students questions, and the students could ask him questions too. But everyone knew this open communication was simply a lie.Who would be smart enough to outsmart the history teacher in his prowess anyway?Mr. Quinton used that leverage to always make his questioning time of open communication a one-sided slaughter but today Landon has decided to ask Mr. Quinton a question.Doesn’t this mean war?“Landon! Just because you got smart does not mean you can overestimate yourself!” Bernard was really angry at this point. He was just too tired of Landon.Every success Landon had was like a stab in the heart to him. After Kara had kissed Landon on the cheek for a fake gift, Bernard's hatred for him increased more than ten times.“What a pitiful fellow?”“Just look at him. He’s trying to outsmart Mr. Quinton because he managed to avoid
..Just a second more was all it took. A second late was all it took for Landon to be a dead person.If he had not been quick to jump out of the way, the car would’ve run over him.Landon fell to the ground hard.Although the driver had applied brakes to the wheels, the car did not stop until it had already covered a certain amount of distance from where Landon was.The car was an Audi A3 sedan. A scowl appeared on Landon’s face as he looked at the car. There’s something wrong with this driver!Even when he was on the right side of the road for a pedestrian, the driver almost ran him over by going off course. Landon got up from the ground with annoyance and walked towards the car intending to give the driver a piece of his mind.The car did not move as it seemed as if the driver was waiting for him to get to the car. Upon getting to the car Landon lost his temper.“Are you stupid? Do you want to have me killed?” Landon yelled.“Landon! You are the one stupid to be shouting at us lik
