The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 108 Invincible
Over twenty vicious gangsters surrounded Tyler immediately. They whipped out knives, baseball bats, and crowbars and tensed their muscles to attack him.An average guy would be petrified of facing such intimidating goons. But Tyler chuckled at the mob before him.“Don’t you see I almost stuck a pin in your pig boss? Do you guys want to end up maimed or handicapped like him? I give you a chance to surrender and talk peacefully. Don’t be an idiot like your boss; take it and survive!”Mick gritted his teeth viciously. “You son of a bitch! You dared to hurt Mr. Bailey while his back was turned! Do you think that is bravado? He would crush you in a one-on-one fight!”Tyler broke into laughter and pointed a mocking finger at Draven Bailey. “Tell that to your boss’ pants! He wet himself like an infant. Get him a diaper for his next birthday!”The entire Red Vipers gang subconsciously turned their gazes to their boss’ clothes. Indeed, the crotch was wet, which suggested he had peed himself. W
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 109 Barney’s Day
“Fucking bitch!” Connor barked. “You escaped last night because your boyfriend had the element of surprise. But I won’t let you get away now!”Isabella struggled with the man, but his grasp on her arm was too firm. “Let me go!” she fired back. “I no longer work for you! Now I know all about your illicit businesses. Prepare to be raided by the police!”Connor cackled aloud. “The authorities are in my pocket. I pay them huge bribes to turn a blind eye to the Bailey businesses. Now stop struggling; come with me willingly, or I’ll punch you unconscious! From today, I’ll keep you chained in the dance bar! Prepare to live the life of a sex slave!”Connor had been waiting for Isabella outside the Cinderella agency building. Mick had tipped him off the moment Tyler showed signs of causing trouble. However, Mick was no longer receiving calls or responding to messages.Connor was shocked to see Isabella leaving the building with a large bag that belonged to the Red Vipers Gang. When he accosted
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 110 Instant Karma
Zip! Something ripped into Connor’s leg. He staggered back and leaned on one of his goons to stay upright. Howling in pain, he picked at the object lodged in his thigh. Surprisingly, it was a paper plane.“What the-? How the-?” Connor stammered in confusion. How could a simple paper plane injure him? What was going on?”Boss! That guy threw the paper thing at you!” one of his goons snapped, pointing toward the building entrance.Connor raised his eyes to see Tyler Grant smirking from a distance. “I told you it wasn’t over, Conny. I would have eventually come for you. But it seems you want to expedite your death!”“You!” Connor fired back. “You hurt me last night and stole my girl! Now you will pay for it with your life!”Tyler laughed aloud. “Your girl? Do you think women can remotely like an ugly creep like you? Even a berserk chimp wouldn’t throw its shit on your face!”“Motherfuc-!” Connor exploded in anger and turned to his goons. “What are you waiting for, idiots?! Kill him!”Ove
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 111 The Stalker
Tyler rushed to the open-air market near Sterling Hill. It was a place where local farmers, artisans, vendors, and dealers set up shops. One could find stationery, fruits, vegetables, hardware, fast food, and most general supplies and services there. Rows upon rows of variety shops were sprawled over a quarter mile area. It was a decent place for youngsters to hang out. Tyler reached the cosmetics shop where Tracy was waiting for him. From the distance, he could tell she was concerned and on the verge of panic. Who was following her? Was a member of the Hux gang still alive? Was Rollo Grant involved? Or was it one of his new enemies? The young man decided to catch the culprit before approaching Tracy. However, spotting a stranger in a bustling, noisy crowd was like finding a needle in a haystack. Tyler activated Athena's Insight, turning his vision and hearing into a supernatural scanner. His pupils moved with lightning speed while his ears picked up every sound. The combined feedb

Tyler racked his brain for an excuse. “Err… Well… On your behalf, I applied for a companion scheme launched by the city government. They hire celebrities to spend time with differently-abled people. Even though the condition of your legs is temporary, you are qualified for the scheme. Mr. Derek Sentinel was randomly allocated to you.” While Tyler appeared satisfied with his made-up excuse, his sister took a few moments to process the information. A look of irritation appeared on her usually cheerful face. “Have you already started treating me like a cripple? I hate you!” Tyler realized his insensitive excuse enraged Tracy instead of soothing her nerves. He opened his mouth to argue, but Derek stepped forward before he could say anything. The Indigo Captain bowed courteously to Tracy and took the liberty of delicately holding her hand. He offered a charming smile, leaned forward, and kissed her hand in a chivalrous manner. “It is a pleasure to meet you, my lady…” he said in a dreami
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 113 Miracle
The burly guards eyed Tyler momentarily, and a look of recognition appeared on their faces. They immediately rushed towards him."It's time to get lost, buddy!" Clyde scoffed. "You had a short, pathetic run. Maybe you can try to find a job in the sewage department. It seems to suit your family."While Jennifer sniggered, the guards reached Tyler's cubicle. Instead of accosting him, they joined their hands with a thankful expression."Mr. Grant! You are an angel from heaven! You saved our jobs! How can we ever repay you?""My wife is pregnant. If I were to lose my job this month, I couldn't even support my newborn!"A look of confusion appeared on Clyde's face. As far as he knew, many of the company's guards were about to be laid off. The financial crunch forced the HR department to take stringent measures.But how did Tyler save them? It didn't make any sense."What nonsense are you blabbering, guys? Your jobs are still gone by the end of this month. There's no avoiding it! But are yo
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 114 Leave Application
Isabella had been silent all along, staring at the sequence of events in utter disbelief. It appeared as if Tyler had somehow already determined the future. He had a counter and remedy ready for every problem, a retaliation and retort planned for every attack.Was the young man really her childhood friend? He didn't exhibit the traits of the teenager she recalled, nor did he have the airs of someone who served a three-year sentence at the dangerous Montserrat Prison. If Isabella had suffered the trials that the Grant family had, she would have spiraled into depression. Instead, Tyler was composed and well-sorted, as if prison empowered and nurtured him.Last night, Isabella was at the lowest point of her life, about to be molested and raped. She was scared to death that Connor Bailey would ruin her. Tyler appeared out of nowhere for a heroic rescue. The following day, he destroyed the Bailey family and now secured a decent job for her.Overcome with gratitude, Isabella ran to Tyler an
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 115 Accusations
"Oh, Miss Anderson!" Jacqueline exclaimed. "What a pleasure!"The flustered secretary bowed half a dozen times."I asked where is Donald?" Natalie said with mild annoyance."I… I… Mr. Glover is in a shareholders’ meeting right now. But I will immediately inform him of your arrival. He will be at your disposal in a minute! If you had informed us beforehand, the board of directors would have planned a special event!""That would be unnecessary," the heiress replied with a dismissive wave of her arm. "Let Donald work. I will wait for him in his office."Jacqueline nodded submissively. The secretary suddenly recalled a gross mistake only after Natalie walked past her and entered the MD's office.A man named Tyler Grant had barged into Donald Glover's office. He was squatting there like a homeless man. Judging by the man's reckless attitude, he would likely offend Natalie Anderson. They were all going to get fired!Jacqueline let out a frightened whimper and staggered into the MC's office.

The beauty shifted closer to her boyfriend and turned her back to him. She moved her hair to the front, exposing her zipper. "Go ahead," she urged.Tyler let out a chuckle of relief. He silently grabbed the zipper and slid it right down to the bottom. Slowly and gracefully, Natalie removed the dress from her shoulders and slid out her arms. It slid down to her waist, revealing that she wore a white silk bra.Tyler gulped anxiously, his eyes on the girl's beautiful exposed back. His mystical energies fought against the arousal, as was his training. However, he commanded them to give it a break just this once.Natalie fiddled with the dress and pushed it over her hips. It slid down her thigh and dropped to the ground with a rustle.The young woman sported a white thong on her lower body. "If I had known we were going to do something intimate, I'd have worn something special on the inside," she murmured shyly.Tyler took off his shirt in a swift motion and approached his lover from behin
235 My Secret Place
Tyler swooped down and landed just outside the garden grove in Emperor's Cove. It was a massive estate, the largest in Sapphire City. From above, its map looked like a city by itself.As Tyler's wings retreated into his back, he lowered Natalie to the ground. As soon as the young woman's feet touched the soil, she acted like a feral animal.The young woman jumped into an attack stance and shoved Tyler hard. She rained a dozen punches on his chest. Naturally, the girly attack had no effect on him. It was battling against a mountain."What the hell was that?" Natalie raged. "You have wings?""What if you had dropped me? What are we doing in Emperor's Cove?"Natalie's questions and complaints were numerous and whiny. They went on for an entire minute. She stopped speaking only after she was gasping for breath.Tyler had been watching Natalie silently with a thin smile. Noticing she had stopped acting like a beast, he stepped forward.The young man cupped and nursed her cheek affectionate
234 You Are Special
Maude Street was downhill on the city map, one of the middle-class housing areas. However, the night scenery from the terrace was fabulous for New Year's Eve. A sea of decoration lights ascended like a wave, rising to Sterling Hill, the highest point."You own Sterling Hill and yet live in this humble home," Natalie said, gazing at the illuminated uphill landscape. "I find that hard to digest."Tyler sighed. "It's for my Mom and Dad. I can't tell them how wealthy I am right now. It's too soon. Moreover, they are happy and comfortable where they live, and I am too."The beauty shrugged. "I guess that makes sense... I… Uh… I can also make up my mind to live here…"The young man did not respond, making her frown. "So… Do you have any?" she asked, trying to sound cheerful."Any what?""New Year resolutions…"The young man smiled thinly. "I don't… Well… As a matter of fact, yes.""Can you tell—""Wishes don't come true if you share them with others. Anyway, how's Silas?"Natalie nodded. "D
233 The Choice
Tyler considered it for a moment and then turned away. “Maybe some other day. Please enjoy the party. The girls are lounging in the living room.”He left, leaving the beauty hanging. Isabella arrived shortly after, excited to talk to him. Tyler exchanged pleasantries with her but again refused to engage privately.The final guest was someone in a hood. The veil lifted to reveal Gina Perry, the international celebrity.“You can’t imagine how difficult it was to dodge the paparazzi and come here,” she grumbled. “It’s in the middle of nowhere! At least give me a hug!”Gina’s ambition was shattered, and she had to settle for a handshake. Only Yara Mathews was missing from the picture, but it was known she was away on important business.After all party preparations were completed, Tracy, Maya, and Britta joined the other girls in the living room. They chatted wildly like old friends and played cards, board games, and charades to pass the time.The men gathered in the kitchen, drinking bee

The Grant household buzzed with noise and activity. Neighbors peeked from their windows and craned their necks from their gardens to know what the hell was going on. It was a three-bedroom home in Maude Street. Tyler had carried out some renovation, but it still looked ordinary. However, judging by the fanfare, one would think it was the Pope’s birthday party. The commotion started when expensive luxury cars arrived in the lane. Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Porche, Audi—you name it. They parked at the intersection for some reason. Guests got off and walked to the Grant house. What was happening? Were the Grants some bigwig family? Then why did they live in such a humble household? Inside the Grant house, energies were high. Tracy rushed from one room to the other, ordering everyone around. She was in charge of the New Year’s Party. Her underlings were older than her, starting with the tall Britta Salvatore. Then there was her boyfriend, Derek Sentinel, the Captain of the Indigo Knights.
231 (Free Chapter) New Year’s Eve Special
Christmas was already history, and Sapphire City was preparing for the New Year celebrations. Restaurants, clubs, hotels, and homes were dressed like brides. There was an economic boom in Sapphire City that year. It created more billionaires and millionaires than in the entire last half-century. Almost every middle-class family was flush with cash, and they didn’t shy away from spending it on holidays. Almost every family. It was the evening of Christmas Eve. A little boy no older than seven walked along the street with an excited smile dancing on his face. A single coin was firmly lodged in his pocket. The boy’s family was poor, and his father struggled with his new garment shop. The man dreamt of building a mall, which was a distant dream. Moreover, the family recently had a baby girl. Money was tight. Christmas had been a lousy affair as they couldn’t afford a Christmas tree, turkey, or gifts. However, the kid’s mother generously gave him a fifty-cent coin as a holiday allowanc
230 Lazarus Briar
The Seraphim King’s mention induced a wave of muttering among the conference members. Lazarus raised his hand to silence them. "The last time I checked, the Seraphim King was dying in Montserrat Prison," he resumed with a louder voice than normal. "What the hell was he doing in El Abyssium? Tell me the truth!" A couple of shadows parted from the room's darkness and gradually slithered towards Dagon and Veronica. The hulk realized this and panicked. "When we reached the Hetacomb site, Butch Salvatore was already there! It was actually him who defeated Goliath!" "So you thought it convenient to claim the credit? You picked up the pieces and ran with the tail tucked between your legs?" The shadows moved faster, now only several feet from Dagon and Veronica. "No, my lord! I killed the Seraphim King with Kraken! He is dead!" Lazarus raised his brows. A gasp of surprise in unison rose from the conference members. It turned into scattered cheers. The Seraphim King was considered t
229 The Coronation Arc Begins
“You will certainly not die if you eat the forbidden fruit,” the serpent said to Eve.~Genesis 3:1-5.***Far off, a secret conference was under way in an undisclosed location. Selected individuals crowded a long table. Some faces were covered with hoods and masks, while others were shadowed. Regardless of the secrecy and covertness, the chatter was loud."What? We lost El Medalla? How could this happen?""Years of hard work and investments ruined? Shame!""What were the mercenaries doing? Did the Red Marauders give up?""Dagon has never failed us before! Does that dog's leash need to be tightened?""How dare the Prince of Petra launch a war against us? Who told him about El Medalla in the first place?""We must retaliate! We have no other alternative!"A man sat at the head of the conference table, paying no attention to the rabble. He looked engaged in deep meditation or profound thought. Suddenly, he stirred, his eyes turning to the side.A surge of incoming energy disturbed his in
