2024-10-29 19:42:56Cory felt like a rock had just hit him in the head. It was as though he was hallucinating or perhaps dreaming. Is this real? If it is, then what sort of an insult is this?
He felt blood rushing through his veins. His blood was boiling.He looked up at this strange young man called Harry. Harry was not even looking at him. Harry was smiling at his woman while he was seated!!!Enraged and pissed to the core, Cory hit the table and jumped up on his feet."What the hell, bro! What are you doing?" Cory bellowed in rage."Can't you see that I'm with my girl here? How dare you just walk in here and disrespect my woman right in front of me?" Cory felt every reason to draw fists, but he didn't yet.He should beat this dumb Harry to pulp for treating him so insignificantly.Slowly, Harry looked away from Sheiley to Cory, who seemed to have been barking in his ears. With the look on Harry's face, it looked like Cory was just being a nuisance.Though Cory was glaring at Harry, Harry didn't seem like he was bothered at all. He looked away from Cory as though the latter meant nothing.Harry looked around and saw that all eyes were on them. Almost everyone in the restaurant were filming on their phones.Harry grunted in displeasure seeing the attention."You poor peope will always be a nuisance, won't you?" Harry sneered at Cory."What did you just say?" Cory's eyes had turned red."It's awful that I have to talk to you, poor loser. But I guess there's no avoiding leeches." While Harry spoke, he fumbled through his chest pocket.Cory just kept staring as though he was in a simulation.Harry brought out an envelope from his chest pocket and threw it at Cory,"That's twenty thousand. I don't want you near her ever again." Harry warned Cory sternly.Cory jaws dropped to the floor. He felt groundless and speechless. What in the world is this kind of disrespect?!As a courier, he has been disrespected by customers, but this type was baffling and outrageous.While Cory was in shock, Harry turned to Sheiley."What do you say, gorgeous? Will you go out with me?" He repeated.Cory was staring at Sheiley this time. He has been the one fighting for their relationship all this time. He was waiting for her to say something.He can't be made to look so stupid in the presence of this total stranger."Sheiley." Cory called softly, in a subtle note of warning.He was hoping that she would defend him."Before you choose an answer, please come with me. There's something I've got to show you." Harry urged Sheiley.Bewildered by what Harry had just said, Cory glared at him. But he realised that something else was happening.Sheiley had just gotten up on her feet."Babe. You are not going with him, are you?" Cory asked, hoping that this was not true."I will just check, Cory. It's harmless." Sheiley replied.As she replied, she followed Harry."Sheiley!!!" Cory called in bewilderment, his heart sinking."Come on, Cory. It's not a big deal." Sheiley answered as she walked away.Everyone in the restaurant followed from behind, too. Cory was the only person left in the restaurant. This can not be happening.When he realised that he was the only one left in the restaurant, he followed the crowd.He wanted to convince himself that he was not insane. Did Sheiley just casually walk out on him? Weren't they just being lovey-dovey? His heart could not take it.Outside the restaurant, there was a black Corvette parked by the entrance. One of the doors of the car was opened. On the seat of the car were several gifts. Flowers, latest iPhone, apple watch, bags, and lots more goodies."This is just a token, beautiful." Harry said. "Just for saying yes to go on a date with me, you'll get all of this." Harry promised.Sheiley looked swooned and very excited. Her eyes widened, and she gulped at the gift.But when she turned and saw Cory coming, she fixed her face.Cory pushed his way through to the front."Sheiley, you can't do this. Remember everything we have shared." Cory pleaded. He didn't care that he sounded shameless.Sheiley sighed."I'm sorry, Cory. This has nothing to do with Harry.I've been wanting to break up with you." Sheiley broke out.A sudden headache rang through Cory's head when he heard that.Although Sherlie was talking to Cory, she could nothelp but stand beside Harry. This also severed Cory's heart into confetti."What the hell are you talking about?" Cory suddenly became furious. "You said you loved me 10 minutes ago! Remember?" Cory wanted to remind her in case she forgot."I just..." Sheiley stuttered. It seemed as though she was thinking of what to say."I really didn’t want to say this, but I saw it all. I sawwhat you did with the other woman that day." Sheiley conned."What! What the hell, Sheiley! What woman?!" Cory's eyes held a shot of blood. He was going really crazy."You want to break up with me, right? Go ahead and do just that! Stop making things up!" Cory bellowed at her.Sheiley quickly looked around. There were too many people filming. She realised that Cory had seen through her plot. She doesn't want the people to speak of her baldy. She has a reputation to protect.But there is someone whose reputation meant nothing to no one. She can freely ruin that, right?Unexpectedly, Sheiley burst into tears,"Are you calling me a gold digger?" She sniffled, her voice breaking, "You never like me. Just because the way I liked you makes you feel good, right? Cory?"The way she cried was endearing, but Cory just felt disgusted. If this was a performance, Sheiley should be getting an oscar."That's very evil of him!" A random person said."You deserve better, Sheiley." Another person added."Dump the pauper!!!" Someone screamed.When Sheiley realised that the people were on her side, she started to wipe her tears away."This crazy bastard!" Harry stepped forward. "How dare you make my woman cry?!" He cursed at Cory.Harry wrapped his arm around Sheiley's shoulders."Come, babe. Let's leave this place." Harry helped her into the car.All through the process, Sheiley kept her head down, avoiding Cory's eyes. She got into the Corvette, and it drove off.Cory just stood their like a statue. He just froze in the place.

Cory has never felt this humiliated in his entire life. It was as though all eyes in this world were directed to him. The crowd outside, who were mostly students from campus, were still filming. They had their cameras pointing solely at him.There were some of them that were cursing at him. Cory knew that standing there would cause even more trouble and pain. He started to walk away. "What a fool he is!" He heard someone cursing at him. "He was already lucky that someone like her would date him! How could he hurt her?!" Another person hurled blames at him.This was not true. But Cory found no reason to answer any of them. He kept on walking until he made a turn into an alleyway. A few distance away from him, there was his scooter. He dragged his heavy feet, his heart also weighing him down. He couldn't clear his head from the cruel things that Sheiley had said to him. She framed him because of a strange guy. He used to think that she was a different kind of girl. He didn't know

Cory looked up ahead and saw a black Rolls Royce parked by the roadside. At that very moment, he lost the will to continue in his tracks. He just stood there as he watched the scene. The lady whom he had saved from the thugs was standing next to the Rolls Royce. Cory, still standing aloof, watched as the door on the driver's side opened, and a tall and lanky man stepped out of the car. The man's suits were well tailored. He was wearing the Thompson brand. His jaws were well outlined, and his face held a certain amount of danger. Just from standing at distance, Cory could tell that much. How about if he walked closer? He couldn't begin to imagine how terrifying the man would be. The man's tough face suddenly became terrified as he saw the lady. He ran around the car to her and dropped on his knees. "Do not spare me, my lady. Punish me. I shouldn't have left you here for long. I shouldn't have left you here all by yourself." The man begged, hitting his forehead against the hard bi

Cory remained careful and cautious as he followed the lady.They walked into the well structured and opulent hospital. Cory's eyes widened when he saw the name of the hospital. Lily Springs Hospital. He has only seen this hospital on the television and mostly on the news. But he has never come close, let alone walk through the door. Lily Springs was one of the top three best hospitals in the country, and only very influential folks were admitted here.The wealth of a person would have hit a particular mark before such would be considered worthy of being a patient here. As they walked through the building, so many people started bowing and greeting the lady. The gestures from the doctors and nurses got Cory even more curious about the identity of this lady he has saved. They walked into the elevator and in no time were walking through the hallway. The lady finally stopped at the front of a door. At the top of the door was written. VVIP ward. The door slid open in front of her, a

This must be absolute madness. Whatever this virtual interface was, it must be looking for ways to annihilate him!!!If not, why would it suggest such a death sentence for him? He might as well walk to the Huggin bridge and jump off into the ocean and drown! Touch her breast? What kind of instruction was that? The previous instruction he got when he fought the thugs was still plausible. But this?Aside from the fact that he would have to convince her to listen to him, would Theo really sit back and watch some wimp touch his daughter in such a way?!Even Cory was not dumb! He has seen how much Theo loved his daughter and what length he would go to make her happy. Cory might as well just sneak out right away. In the midst of the running and shuffling, he wanted to slip out. Suddenly, a group of doctors entered into the room. The henchmen who had gone to call the doctors walked in behind them, then shut the doors. Cory almost cursed out when the last henchman locked the door. Not on

Cory stopped when he got to the doctor. The doctor's hand was still shaking from the shock that came with the interruption. When a sudden voice had yelled, "Enough!", the doctor had thought that it was Theo. But now, seeing this scrawny youth standing in front of him, the doctor flared up in utmost rage."Who is this wayward lad, and when he did walk into the ward?" The doctor bellowed, glaring at Cory. Cory was not bothered. His face looked unusually calm. It was as though he was a new person. It was hard to tell what had gotten over him. "Where did you come from, and how the hell did you find yourself here? Did you know what you just caused? You just made me cut Miss Anna with the needle." The doctor yelled even harder at Cory. The more the doctor yelled at Cory, the more he wished that Theo would say something. The doctor had intentionally mentioned the cut on Anna's arm to further infuriate Theo and get him to act. It worked. Theo's eyes kindled rage when he saw the scratch o

"This cursed jerk!!!" The doctor suddenly exclaimed. "What the hell are you doing?!!"The doctor moved so quickly and grabbed Cory's hand, stopping it from touching the swell of her breasts. Anna opened her eyes when she heard the shout. Theo's eyes were already on fire. "What happened? What did he do?" Anna asked, looking quite clueless. She was the only one who had no idea what was going on. "I told you, Lord Theo. I knew that this jerk had nothing to offer. I can't believe that he really played his role well to fool you. I was right, Lord Theo. He only wanted to take advantage of her!" The doctor stamped, his honor and ego returning. "Do not spare him, Lord Theo. He has slapped you across the face. Not only did he enter into the ward uninvited, but he also almost assaulted your precious daughter. He also insulted our sacred profession. He deserves to die, Lord Theo." The doctor's grip on Cory's wrist tightened. Anna was sitting up in the bed now. She looked quite shocked to r

"When I'm done with you. You would wish you were never born!" A tough looking man growled at Cory, who was sitting in the backseat of the car. The car was driving at full speed. There were two other henchmen who were seated next to Cory. Cory was in between them. At the backseat of the car. The henchman who had just spoken was the one driving. "How dare you have the guts to do that!!! How dare you even think of it!!!" The driver got even more infuriated. "I should beat the living out of you." The henchman on Cory's left raised a fist. "Break his face." The other henchman who was on the rich urged. As the henchman brought his hand down towards the face of Cory, the driver suddenly pushed hard on the break, making the tyres screech.Everyone at the backseat was shoved to the front, The two henchmen hit their heads hard against the backs of the front seat, but Cory was fine. Cory should have hit his head too, but something unusual happened, and he somehow evaded the bump."Ouch! T

Following the fatal fate of the former driver of Anna, a new man had been assigned to drive her. She was not alone in the backseat of the car. Next to her was Cory. Cory couldn't have said no to her after she gave him such a face. He didn't want to look or sound mean. While the car rode through the road, Cory was looking in the other direction. Although he could not see anything through the window since the car was tinted, yet he pretended like he was. He could feel the heat from Anna's eyes heating up the side of his face. She was constantly looking at him. Anna wanted to start a conversation, but she was a little bit reluctant. There were a couple of things she could talk about following everything that had happened, but she didn't want to offend Cory. She was indebted to him for saving her life. "Where are you headed?" Anna finally found something. Cory slowly turned to look at her. "Oh, right. I'm headed to Shelton University." Cory replied. He was about to look away from

Anna could not understand what was happening. She had stepped to the front, away from Cory, to look closely at the man walking towards her. How could this be her father? She was about to lose her mind. At this point, she had no idea how she was still able to hold up her peace and not go nuts. This was just enough to make her question her sanity. "What's happening? How could this be ---" Anna turned to the back to ask Cory. She suddenly choked on the words. Turning around, Cory was nowhere to be found. It would seem as though he had vanished into thin air. She quickly rushed back into the hut to look for him but she couldn't find him. She ran outside again. She didn't know what to make of all these that were happening to her. She really did wish that she would have an explanation for it. "Did you see him walk out just now?" Anna asked her father, who had stopped walking right in front of the door of the hut. Lord Theo shook his head softly, taking a deep breath. The man slowly p

Anna choked so hard on her breath that she almost passed out. She had no idea what was happening or what had just happened. She couldn't wrap her head around it, let alone make a meaning of it. But it was real. She could see it right in front of her. There was someone who had just been sliced into several pieces. "Father..." She was having trouble rolling those words over. She couldn't even move closer to the corpse. The head was still hanging in the air. Thud! The head and neck dropped on the floor. She flinched, almost sprouting some unknown wings. She should move forward and touch the corpse. She should fall on the pieces of her father and weep her eyes out, but she couldn't. This was just way too much for her to process. She was trying to understand how this was possible in the whole wide world. How could it ever be possible?She could recall openly that she had left her father back at the mansion. The old man couldn't even move an inch, let alone get to her. She could see

Anna was lost in the moment and couldn't place her own emotions, not even after she had climbed into the car. It was a cab, and Cory had just hailed at the cab. What had just happened in the building was still very much fresh in her mind. There was no way she was going to throw that away or be distracted from it. She took a glance at the corner of Cory's face. Then, the glance intensified, graduating into a keen gaze. Cory, on the other hand, was staring at the front. It would seem as though she was not even there. "Are you not going to explain it to me?" She asked him eventually. Cory still would not look at her. She didn't want to act as though this meant nothing to her. She hated the fact that Cory was ignoring her. She knew that she could not force the words out of his mouth. He had to be willing, else her worries and questions would forever remain unattended to. The manner at which Cory was staring, Anna could deduce that there was something else on his mind. Although they

Anna was lost in the moment. She was just wailing over her own troubles and worries when a sudden voice had come out of nowhere. The back figure of the person walking away from her looked rather too familiar for her to ignore. In fact, she didn't have the luxury of ignoring anything at this point. How could she? Her door had been locked perfectly, and there were even men standing watch outside of the door. She didn't even hear the door open, let alone feel a presence until the words hit her. The recurring facts that ran all over the incident made her push her body up in the bed, as now she was kneeling in bed. "Cory?" She was skeptical as she called his name. She wanted to be sure that she was able to place her confusion and get squared up with the main matter;The real situation was the fact that someone familiar was in the room with her and had asked her to leave with him. Cory hesitated at the door and then turned to look at her again. When their gazes met, he saw a whole la

Standing in front of the heap of dead warlords, Cory shut his eyes and took in all the air of victory around him. He had to be sincere with himself. There might still be a lot of spiritual figures out there in the open waiting to cause another havoc or rain another wave of terror. He had never had any reason to be scared of them. Although one of the reasons why he had come to the island was just to be wary of them. Right now, after killing all these warlords, he couldn't help but come to a conclusion that even if he was running from trouble, trouble would still find him. Henceforth, the determination to carry on with this new level of task overwhelmed him. He had unintentionally unlocked another realm and phase of challenges that he could never let anyone else figure out except himself. All his life, he had learned how to keep such big secrets. How could he be referred to as the Immortal Dao if he didn't know how to be exclusive with some of the things that have been haunting him

Lord Theo, who was already exhausted from the errands and worries affiliated with the plot they were carrying out, raised his head slowly to look at his daughter, who was fired up by what she was saying. "What are you talking about, Anna? Please go back to bed. You need it." The man dismissed causally as though he had expected her to be up by now. At this point, Anna really didn't know what to feel. She wished that she would be able to choose her feelings, but she couldn't. There was a great measure of disappointment in what she was feeling at that moment. And there was something else, too. Something which she couldn't really reach. She wanted to sigh, but because she was huffing and puffing, she was even having a hard time catching her breath. "Answer my question, father." Her voice became even louder this time. She was trying to make it obvious to him that she wasn't here to joke around. She was here to talk about and review what was bothering her the most. It would be a great

Anna's eyes slowly opened. When her eyes opened, she felt fatigue, a pool of fatigue washing all over her body. She shut her eyes again to be certain what the problem could be. She slowly opened her eyes again, confiding in the act of precision and timing. Yet the feeling lingered. The fatigued remained. If there was anything, it even became heavier. She tried to roll in bed to the other side, but she felt extremely weak. She had no idea what was happening to her. Rolling on her stomach, she tried to heave her body to a comfortable position, but nothing seemed to work for her. She fell back on her face in bed and started to grunt. "What the hell is happening to me?" She muttered, seeking to understand what the problem might be. The moment when she rolled from one end of the bed to the other, things were beginning to ease gradually. The fatigue and weariness were beginning to wear off. This time, her mind was clearing out gradually. There was a room in her mind to house as many w

"We must go right away." One of the senators stood up and was headed towards the door. "I'm sorry we can't." The doctor suddenly stepped into the way of the senator. The senator looked so offended and pissed out of his mind. He was staring at the doctor as though the doctor was a piece of garbage who ought not to stand in his presence, let alone lift his gaze to look at him. He scoffed and turned to look at the rest of the senators behind him. "What the hell is wrong with these minions? Is it really our fault that we have indulged them and made them feel so comfortable in our midst?" The senator sounded very judgemental as he rolled those words out. He really didn't care that the doctor could hear him. The senators didn't care about anything at all. They don't care about other people other than themselves. As long as things are going their way, they wouldn't care less to do whatever they thought to be okay. "Now, move out of my way before I rip you into shreds!" The senator thre

Linda and her father were as still as a hill. They couldn't even make a sound. They couldn't see each other. Talking about seeing, Linda's eyes were drooping over her breasts at this point. It seemed as though the poison continued to lower the thread of the eyes down and down until perhaps it would get to the soles of her legs. This really didn't matter to her yet because the room was too dark for either of them to see each other. Before they were looked inside this room by the two hefty henchmen, they had seen clearly that it was super bright outside. It was noon. How come when they were locked in here, it was extremely dark? They had not been taken to an underground location. In fact, the underground location they had just come from was well lit and brighter than this. Although she couldn't use her eyes well, Linda could still tell this much that this was a very dark room. "Why is it so dark in here?" She asked her father, looking in the only direction she could afford. Down.
