2024-11-20 13:41:33His mind went blank for a brief moment before rage filled his whole being and without thinking twice about the thoughts he had in mind, Ryu walked towards them in haste, and from behind he came to stand before them, interrupting their cheating moment.
"How dare you?!" Ryu yelled and immediately grabbed Richard, his friend by the collar and lifted him from the bench where he sat intimately beside Belle. "Ryu? What are you doing? Have you gone mad? Let him go!" Belle yelled at Ryu in shock and quickly grabbed his arms, trying to yank him away from Richard. Finally letting go of Richard, Ryu glared hard at his friend, not imagining he could betray him in such a way. "How could you?" Ryu asked in whispers but got silence as a response, all Richard did was smile smugly at Ryu, not seeming remorseful and this angered Ryu even more. However, Ryu let out a low breath, trying to calm himself down as he had a bigger fish to fry. He looked away from Richard and turned to face Belle who was clinging onto Richard worriedly. With his deep gaze shooting daggers at her, he grabbed Belle by her arms and demanded, "Where is my money?" Ryu asked as he dragged her out of Richard's arms. "What money are you talking about you idiot, let me go!" Belle responded while trying to get out of Ryu's tight hold all to no avail. "Liar! You took money out of my bank account without telling me. Where is my money?" He asked, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Belle whose face was etched with guilt. However, the little guilt Belle felt soon vanished like they never existed and she gave Ryu a sharp look, "So what? What if I took your money?" She asked disgust marred heavily on her face as she looked away. "Well, I want my money back and now!" Said Ryu, he could already feel his body shaking from all the pent-up anger, he was trying so hard to stop himself from doing anything crazy. As he stared at Belle's side profile, her short brown hair shiny from the sun's reflection, he couldn't believe she could go this far. He very much understood her hatred for him but she was doing way too much by stealing his money and cheating on him with his very close friend. Well, ex-friend because there was no way he would forgive Richard for such betrayal. "I don't have the money, it's gone. Now stop this madness of yours and get out!" Belle yelled as she pointed in the direction that led out of the garden. Her words took Ryu by surprise, he was so taken aback by how indifferent she suddenly was towards him that he forgot how to speak for a brief moment. "What?" He whispered with a frown full of disbelief and confusion. "You heard her, leave and stop causing a scene. You've interrupted our moment over some penny," Richard said as he came to stand beside Belle and grabbed her by her waist with a nonchalant look. "Penny?" Ryu questioned facing Richard, "You call three hundred thousand some penny? I need that money urgently for my mother's treatment, do you understand?" Ryu roared, clenching his fists tightly as he tried to hold back his anger. "Three hundred thousand? That's it? I thought you was yapping about millions man," Richard commented with a chuckle full of mockery which Ryu didn't take lightly. Ryu felt as if they were all taking him for a joke and right after Richard's words, Ryu quickly launched at him, with his hands in a fists, he lifted them above his head and they landed heavily on Richard's jaws, making him stumble to the ground. Belle yelped at the sight of Ryu attacking Richard with her eyes wide open from shock. "Ryu! That's enough!" Someone yelled from the garden's entrance which was the kitchen's backdoor, this caught Ryu's attention. He was prepared to launch at Richard for more punches but stopped midway to stare at Dave who walked in on them. "What is this nonsense?" Dave asked, he stared at his sister, Belle, and back at Ryu, looking for answers. "It's Ryu, he just barged in demanding for the money I took from his bank account to pay up Dad's debt," Belle explained, immediately putting all the blame on Ryu but this didn't surprise Ryu much. What shook him was Belle's words, she had taken all of his life savings to pay off their father's debt. "You did what?" Ryu questioned, disbelief written on his face, he was filled with so much anger that his face turned red and his eyes watery and he wouldn't stop gritting his teeth. These people were testing him. "So what? Don't tell me you are acting all up over that little money. If it's so important to you then go get a better job and make better money, stop being childish," Dave spat, irritated by Ryu. Ryu was after all a live-in son-in-law, he worked at their father's wood-cutting business and lived rent-free in their house, he never provided whatsoever yet he had the nerve to complain over some penny. Facing Dave, Ryu breathed as he tried to calm himself down, "My mother needs urgent money for her treatment, you need to return my money," he said with finality, not wanting to hear anything else except his money. "You leech, shouldn't you be grateful? We sheltered you and fed a loser like you, gave you a job and you even married my sister even when you aren't worthy of her, how dare you demand for your money?" Dave said and one could feel the spite in his voice and words. It was clear Dave despised Ryu, he wished his sister had not married such a useless person. If this was in the past, Ryu would have felt ashamed but he felt no single ounce of shame at the moment, getting his money back was important to him. "You aren't better than me either, you work for your father in his wood-cutting business, you are being sheltered and fed here so we are the same..." Ryu retorted back but was quickly shut by Dave who threw a hard punch at him, causing him to stagger to the ground with blood on his lips. "You really have gotten some nerves," Said Dave, clearly offended by Ryu's words. He took a few steps closer to Ryu and gave him two resounding slaps with the sharp sound filling the place and taking everyone by surprise, including Ryu who never expected the sudden slap. Not entirely satisfied, Dave grabbed Ryu by the collar and dragged him out of the house, he pushed Ryu out the gate and shut it with a loud bang, and left without saying a word or looking back.

Inside the master bedroom which belonged to the chairman, a middle-aged man stood before a full-length mirror getting ready for the day with three maids standing beside him, ready to take his orders at any given time.Mr Langley Austin was currently in his late 60s and looked very young and agile for his age, he was quite particular about his health. The grey hair on his head gave off his age which was hidden thanks to his youthful looks, he was average in height sporting 5:2 ft tall.His face looked serious, so serious that it would leave a person guessing how he looked like if he ever smiled.He looked at his reflection one more time after being fully dressed before stepping out of his bedroom without saying a word and the maids stepped out right after and closed the door.With precise steps, he walked through the hallway and made it to the dining where a feast lay untouch

Fearing for the life of the Chairman's son, he instructed the Doctor to immediately start giving Ryu treatment as he knew how deadly poisons can be.

"Reality? I never chose this, I didn't even ask to be here so what are you talking about?" Ryu said, glaring at the older man. Hearing this from Ryu, Drew sighed as he had not expected for things to go this way. "Not everybody is privileged enough to choose their reality. People just find themselves in crazy situations and can do nothing about it. Some get lucky with a better life and some the total opposite. The fun thing about life is, no matter how crazy life gets, you can always get to shape your reality to how you want it. When life hands you a lemon, you turn it to lemonade or whatever it is they say." He explained, hoping for the young man to understand. "Look at you now, being scared and towering away from the reality given to you..." "I'm not scared," Ryu interrupted with an offended frown but Drew ignored him. "But the truth is, you can always change it if you want. The ability to do so is right in the palm of your hands, it's like a power we humans yield. And the only w

Reality.
Three months flew by with Ryu getting the mentorship he needed from Drew. He was taught everything he needed to know about business and about the company in general. He was given practical tests and theory exams and he passed them to both his and Drew's surprise. One month into the mentorship, Drew could already see Ryu was taking it seriously. One could tell the young man was eager to learn. The way he asked questions out of his own curiosity and the way he answered the questions asked to him, Drew knew he had buckled up. He had a good brain too, he could easily grab onto things, even the ones that seemed like they weren't there and the ones Drew had purposely made to appear so. Every single day that came, it became as if Ryu woke up with a new willpower to learn and this was impressive to Drew. During the three months of mentorship, some of Ryu's practical tests had involved him having to spend his day in the company with the Chairman. He attended meetings with the Chairman and

"I'm interested, I will do it," Ryu stated out of the blue without understanding where the willpower to suddenly do what he never wanted came from.His response took both him and the Chairman by surprise. Chairman Langley wouldn't have guessed it could be this easy to convince Ryu. The young man was human anyway, things like this would definitely excite him no matter how hard he tried to avoid it."Well, that was easy," the Chairman breathed with a small smile on his lips. "It's settled then," he said and made his way to the elevator to return back to his office and Ryu and the others followed with Ryu constantly looking behind him to stare at the brown-eyed janitor one more time.They left the floor through the elevator and returned back to the Chairman's office where Drew was officially assigned to be Ryu's mentor for the time being till he was finally fit to take up his position as the CEO.After a brief meeting, Ryu and Drew left the company and drove back to his apartment.

"I'm going to make you the CEO and sole successor of this company Ryu, how do you feel about that?" He asked to see the shock that immediately fell on Ryu's face.The office fell in utter silence as Ryu stood in shock, trying to digest the words he heard from the Chairman, making sure he heard right.Did he hear right? Sole successor and CEO of what? This sounded so absurd to Ryu that he felt a little dizzy.He tried getting rid of the dizziness by shaking his head a bit and stared back at the Chairman, "What?" He asked hesitantly, seemingly still in great shock."I know you heard me and I can tell you this for free," the Chairman said, rising from his chair and slowly walking towards Ryu. "You can't afford to say no to me. No, I mean, you have no choice here, you can't decide. I made that decision and as my son, you have no choice but to comply, or am throwing you back to where I picked you up." He deadpanned, another piercing silence followed his words as Ryu took his own sweet time

On their way home from the mall, Drew noticed the slight change in Ryu's demeanor, he couldn't quite understand what had happened or why his mood changed so drastically. Was his Young Master bipolar?That could possibly be the case. After all, they met today for the first time, there was so much he didn't know about his Young Master, and being bipolar could be one of them.What Drew didn't know was that Ryu had seen his wife together with the man who had tried to kill him, they appeared to be intimate with each other.The thought of Richard and Belle conspiring to kill him in the disguise of wanting to help him made Ryu chuckle in self-mockery. How had he been stupid enough to go to Richard's office that day thinking he was going to be offered help? The whole time he had walked into his own death trap.Ryu didn't even want to think of what would have happened if nobody showed up to save him. His enemies would have been living a happy and fulfilling life while he would have been dead a

Ever since Ryu left and was never seen again, life became a lot more better for Belle. Who would want to deal with a lazy broke husband when they could have a rich boyfriend anyway?Richard had been treating her way better than Ryu would ever in his entire existence. Richard was way more romantic, considerate, and rich too.She was enjoying this little life of hers and now she wanted more, she wished to be married to Richard now but she was still married to Ryu which made it impossible.And to make matters worse, nobody knew where Ryu was at the moment. After being thrown out of their house, he was nowhere to be found. His phone wouldn't go through. But Belle had not been searching for Ryu all these while because she missed him or was worried about him, it was mainly because she wanted to hand him a divorce letter and call their marriage quits.She wanted nothing to do with him and didn't want anything of his attached to her or around her. Now that she couldn't find him, she hoped he

"Are you crazy?" Ryu asked, his gaze now staring deeply at her with a subtle glare. "Well, maybe you could be right that my father gave me a fake black card to use," Ryu said, slightly looking back at Drew who cleared his throat with a nervous smile. "But you can't just jump to a conclusion like that, swipe the card first."By now, every ounce of playfulness in Ryu had vanished. The cashier was being ridiculous and crossing boundaries at this point. She was being discriminative towards him because she thought he was a poor man with a fake black card.With the drama now going on, Ryu was thankful the mall wasn't a crowded place. It had just a few people in, it roaming around."And who is your father?" The manager asked, his small self looking up at Ryu dead in the eyes, waiting for a response.Ryu, however, looked at the manager and sighed, this wasn't what he was here. "That's not the issue right now, don't you think so?" He questioned the manager to notice him look away, seemingly ge

Trouble At The Mall. 1.
Ryu quickly went straight to shopping, picking up whatever caught his eye. Ranging from shoes to watches to outfits.It was a fun experience for him, having to buy whatever he wanted without holding back. He could recall in the past how he had always wanted something but never got it for himself because he couldn't afford it.He spent a good thirty minutes shopping. He would pick up outfits, try them on, and sometimes change his mind to pick another outfit. It went on till he was finally done.By the time he was done, he ended up spending three million on the things he bought and two million on the salon section. This made his chest thump fast because who in their right senses would spend that much money on clothes and salons?He turned to stare at Drew and inwardly glared at him, why would he bring him to such an expensive place? And not to mention, the clothes had no price tags on them.He felt they were being cheated, this was definitely a rip-off."Excuse me, are you sure you aren

The following morning, Ryu was woken up by the constant ringing of an alarm, he grumbled while rolling from side to side on the queen-sized bed. For some odd reasons, he slept way better than he had in a long while and as the alarm kept ringing, Ryu could recall not ever placing an alarm. He never did his whole life.Forcibly squeezing his eyes open, he yawned with a stretch. The harsh rays of the morning sunlight fell on his face, forcing him awake.He yawned for the second time, his eyes now fully open. His bright blue eyes stared at the huge chandelier on the ceiling just right above him, his mind preoccupied with the weird dream he had last night. The more he tried to recall the dream, the faster it left his memory."Good morning, Young Master," The voice of a man seeped into Ryu's ears, distracting him from his thoughts.Young Master? Ryu wondered to himself with a deep frown on his eyebrows, wondering if he was beginning to hear things. He slowly looked to his side to find two u
