..With just a few words Edwin, his family, and all those involved in the fraud were sent away to suffer a fate that was equal to death.This was the power of the Rivera family. Today everyone in the gathering understood the fact that it was not an overstatement when they said the Rivera family was indeed powerful. Today many people in Hazelwood got to see this for themselves. What was even more shocking was the young man who had gotten Jasmine to listen to him. They all saw the fact that Jasmine treated Landon with respect and he was the one who had suggested the punishment that was enforced by Jasmine.They were all looking at Landon like he was someone important. He had to be important. The more they tried to find out anything about Landon the more mysterious he was.“Who is he?”“I don’t know. Maybe he’s somebody important in Dimvale City as well.”“I know almost all the popular figures in Dimvale City but I don’t know him.”Various men and women were already gossiping as they l
..A 50-year-old man was seated in his luxurious room. He seemed to be meditating as both his eyes were closed as he sat on the bed.However, his meditation did not take long as he was interrupted by a knock on his door.“Lord Leonard?”Leonard opened his eyes and with a stern look, he looked in the direction of the door. “Come in.”The person on the other end of the door opened the door and stepped into the room. The person that had entered the room was an old man much more older than Leonard but his eyes glinted with fear towards Leonard.The old man was Leonard’s butler. The butler knew that Leonard was the kind of person who hated interruption during meditation. However, the butler knew in his heart that he did not decide to interrupt Leonard’s meditation for no just reason.“Lord Leonard I think you want to see this.” The butler said as handed Leonard an apple tab.Leonard's eyes lit up in a complicated way as he looked at the tab.“Who did this?” Leonard asked coldly.“I don’t
..Landon was very annoyed. He was annoyed at Tricia. Right now he really couldn’t tell if Tricia was bluffing or not which was why he tried to call Kara but he was shocked to death when Tricia answered Kara’s phone.This made him feel like there’s supposed to be a bit of truth in what Tricia is saying right?Landon knew he had to find out so he ended up deciding to go meet Tricia.“Alright, where are you?”[ “I’m at our campus wildlife. I’m waiting for you there.” ] Tricia said from the other end of the phone and then the call ended.Landon didn’t waste time so he hailed a cab back to campus.Truth be told he was expecting Tricia to give him a desolate location since she kidnapped Kara, however, she has asked him to come to meet him at Campus Wildlife.The campus wildlife was a public part of the campus of Cradle Valley University. It was a place most students go to make out at night or even have fun by creating a campfire. Cradle Valley campus was so big that it housed a forest in
..Tricia’s expression suddenly became ugly when she heard Landon’s words.“You are not interested in getting back with me?” Tricia was annoyed.“No, I’m not. I just want you to know that so that you can stop disturbing me.” Landon said.“Why? Is it because of that bitch Jasmine?” Tricia asked.“Jasmine?” Landon was confused. “What about Jasmine?”“Don’t you dare pretend to me? I know you both are dating! You both might be keeping it a secret from the rest of the world but I know you both are dating! Besides I’m sure she must have been the one to convince you to keep it a secret from everyone else. All I can say is that she’s using you! The reason she doesn’t want your relationship to be known is because she’s ashamed of you. She’s ashamed of what people will say about her because she thinks you are not up to her level. She’s only just using you!” Tricia said trying to convince Landon of her feelings.Landon didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry at this moment.Tricia had just s
..“Can you just calm down?” Xander said as he watched Bernard walk around uncomfortably. “We should heard news from your guy by now. What is taking him so long? How hard can it be for him to rough that trash up?” Bernard said nervously.“Maybe Diablo is just taking his time in roughing up that trash so you should relax. My cousin was the guy who referred me to Diablo. Those guys are die-hard gangsters so roughing someone up is their specialty so all you have to do is just relax.” Xander said trying to convince Bernard to relax.The reason Bernard was acting all worked up was because they had sent Diablo, a known gangster to have Landon beaten and crippled. Since all their plans in trying to humiliate Landon have never worked, they decided to go for a direct attack. Diablo gave them his word that he would be done with Landon by 2 PM but now it was already 3 PM and they were still yet to hear from Diablo.They have tried calling Diablo several times but not once have their calls been
..The trio came out of their dorm rooms only to be met with different kinds of odd looks from everyone in the boy’s dormitory.Anywhere they passed people gossiped as they looked at their back. Xander did not have to be a genius to figure out what was going on. The reason everyone was giving them odd looks was because of Landon’s post.‘That stupid trash! This is all his fault!’Xander’s mood became sour whenever his mind drifted to Landon’s post. The main reason they are all going to the Dean’s office is because of Landon.Xander, Bernard, and Duke all tilted their head in shame as they headed for the Dean’s office.A few minutes later they arrived at the Dean’s office to see someone which made their expression worse even more.“You….” Xander glared at Landon.Bernard hated Landon to the guts as well, however, his anxiety regarding the outcome of their visit to the Dean’s office clouded his hatred.Landon didn’t say much when he saw the three of them. The only thing he did was give
..The expression on the trio's parents’s faces was not good after they watched their son get dragged to the police station.Gerald instantly took out his phone and made a call. “Attorney Lawrence my son just got arrested so I’ll love it if you can go to Dimvale City police department and make sure you do anything to have my son released…Okay…okay.”Gerald's call ended and then he looked at Landon coldly. “Young man, are you sure you want to do this with me? This can only end up worse for you.”Landon could not help but frown at the moment. “What do you mean Mr. Taylor?”“Shut up! Is that the right way to talk to Mr. Taylor?! Show him some respect! Besides, we all get it! What our son did to you is not right but can’t you just overlook things? You didn’t get hurt so just overlook the matter.”“Yes. How can you be so selfish to want to ruin our son's bright future? Are you so heartless?!”“He’s truly despicable! Just look at him! Let us warn you for your good, you better drop the char
..Landon hailed a taxi to the Great Taste restaurant.Upon getting there he was stopped by the security of the place. The security guard looked at him with contempt and asked: “Dude are you a member?”Eve didn’t tell him he had to be a member enter the Great Taste restaurant. Indeed the place was quite luxurious but he was not a member so Landon told the truth.“No, I’m not.”“Then you can’t enter. This place is reserved for only members of the Great Taste restaurant.” The security guard replied coldly.“I’m here to meet someone,” Landon said.However, his words fell on deaf ears when a couple arrived at the Great Taste restaurant gate.“Hello!” Mr. Hachi said with a smile while holding a lady’s waist.“Hello, Mr. Hachi. Welcome very much.” The guard instantly replied in a respectful tone as he noticed Mr. Hachi.“Hello…I just told you I’m here to meet someone.” Landon interrupted the bodyguard’s exchange with Mr. Hachi.“Shut up and get out of here you brat! I told you if you are
