“Wait!” Finn quickly stopped him. “I think I used the wrong finger. Let me try my index, I remember now.”

“Are you trying to play a trick on me?” The Manager asked cautiously. “It won't end well for you.”

Finn nodded in understanding. “Yeah, and I’ll advise you not to threaten me. It won't end well for you either.”

The manager blinked, noticing the confident expression on Finn. The young man looked completely unfazed.

The manager exhaled deeply, thinking to himself, “If his index finger also fails, is he going to try his middle finger then? What is he going to do if none of his fingers works?”

Whatever! If Finn didn't pass the verification this time, he would call the police and get him arrested.

Just when the manager was lost in his thoughts, Finn already pressed his index finger into the verification area.

The equipment emitted a faint hum as a green light illuminated its surface. On the LCD screen, text scrolled into view:

Verification Successful

Family Account ID: 05

Identifier: Finnick Lachlan L…

Account Number: 051543

The manager was stunned for a moment

Blinking to regain his composure, he looked at Finn in disbelief and respectfully bowed to him. “Forgive me for my rudeness earlier, Mr. Lachlan. Nice to meet you, Sir. I haven't introduced myself. I am Callum Fitzroy, the Citadel City Branch’s customer manager.”

Finn nodded dismissively. “So how much do I have in my account? I need to know.”

“I’ll check that as soon as possible, Sir.” After saying that, Callum sat in front of the computer and began to operate on it.

After a few seconds, “Done, Mr. Lachlan.” He pressed a button on the screen, and the chart of Finn’s account appeared.

“Mr. Lachlan, your personal account currently has two hundred and fifty… billion dollars.”

As Callum read the number, he couldn't help but swallow hard in astonishment, his eyes wide open in shock.

He was beyond amazed.

Finnick was only 20 years old, yet he already had this much money and assets. Ordinary people can’t earn that much in a lifetime.

Finn stared at the numbers on the screen, and honestly, he was amazed. He had been so poor for three years that his situation was feeling too good to be true.

The manager cleared his throat, trying to gain his composure.

“Uh, Sir, you also have other assets. Let me update you on their status.”

Twenty surveillance videos appeared on the screen.

“These are the surveillance images of your real assets in other places,” Callum explained to Finn and clicked one of the images which was a high-end Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Callum clicked the images for Finn one by one.

“Uh… wow, starting with The Azure Star, your rare blue sapphire, it’s currently secured in our high-security vault of Citadel City. It underwent its scheduled inspection last week, and its value remains impeccable. The Crimson Flame, the Burmese ruby is housed in our Arlathian Reserve, where it continues to be monitored by our specialized gem experts. Meanwhile, The Emerald Horizon has been transported to the Elysian Depository in Solhaven as per requested.

Your vehicles are all accounted for. The Phantom Eclipse, your Rolls-Royce, is currently stored in the Eclipse Tower Garage here in Ironspire. The Velvet Thunder, the Aventador, remains in its climate-controlled suite at the Lythorne Showroom. And, of course, the Golden Viper, your Aston Martin, is locked down in our private storage facilities at Crestfall.

As for your properties, there's Oceancrest Manor, the coastal estate here in Citadel City. A penthouse in Skylume City. A mountain lodge in the Ashgard Peaks, Solhaven Estate, and your beachfront villa in Lumecrest.

There's also fine art collections which are meticulously managed, a Yacht, The Midnight Tide stationed in Citadel City Marina, and then, there's your private jet, Celestial Wing, which remains on standby in the Citadel Aerodome.”

The manager blinked in fear and glanced at Finn who stared at the screen. The young man was certainly no joke.

Finn bobbed his head, realizing his father was really prepared for his comeback. He had mansions, a private jet, a yacht, and even cars he never had before.

It was also nice to know that his precious gems were taken care of. He inherited most of them from his late mother.

“Well, I need a bank card now,” he told Callum.

Callum immediately nodded. “Yes, Sir. I’ll work on it as soon as possible!”

Callum personally went to make a card for Finn. In just ten minutes, he came back with a Supreme Card. He held the card to Finn with both hands like it was a fragile object.

“Mr. Lachlan, this is your card.”

Finn took the card, staring at it back and front, and wasted no time in making his way out.

“Mr. Lachlan, please wait!” Callum yelled.

He didn't dare neglect a big client like Finn. He must personally walk Finn out.

But he had to turn off the property system of his computer, and he hadn’t even put the fingerprint verification device back into the safe.

By the time he did all that, Finn already opened the door and left.

In the main hall, Verna was pacing around, waiting anxiously. “Why isn't he out yet? Is the customer manager stupid not to notice who must have entered the room?”

The longer Finn stayed inside, the more scared she was.

Her eyes widened in alarm as she saw him casually walk out of the VIP room.

It aggravated her.

“Hey, stop right there, you damn bastard! You trespassed into the VIP room without permission. Once we confirm there are no losses, I will let the guards deal with you!”

She rushed up to him and grabbed his hand like he was a criminal.

“Hey!” Finn immediately snatched his hand away causing Verna to stagger, almost falling. “What the hell is your problem?”

Angry, Verna rushed to start searching him. She searched his pockets and brought out the Supreme Card.

“Hah! What is this?” She questioned him with an accusatory tone and a stern gaze.

    “You’re nothing but a thief! What kind of parents raised you, huh?! You will spend the rest of your life in prison, I’ll make sure of that!”Of course, Verna did not think that the card belonged to Finn. It was preposterous. How could a pauper-looking guy like him own a Supreme Card? It was unthinkable.He must have stolen it from the VIP room when the manager wasn’t paying attention. That must have been his goal all along.“Sly criminal…”“Give it back to me!” Finn demanded.“No!” Verna yelled at him. “Don’t think you're ever gonna get away with this, you thief!”A crowd of people, upon hearing the commotion, had already surrounded them. They joined Verna to berate Finn with condescending looks.Meanwhile, after putting everything in place, Callum finally made his way outside, hoping he would be able to meet up with Finn.That young man was his biggest client as of that moment. He had never seen such assets from someone clearly in his twenties, a college student. Who really was he?

In fact, it was the sixth—each time for a different woman. And who knows how many more times Jerome had actually remembered to bring protection himself?He found Dana pathetic being with someone like Jerome.

Then she removed her hand.“I think this belongs to you.”It was a

    The only reason why Finn went to the Palate Haven, a restaurant only for the rich kids in school, was because Nick wanted it. He was just one of the many people good to him since the start of school.Nick was his best friend. When Nick saw him, he was happy and he quickly led Finn to a private dining room on the second floor.When he entered, he met more familiar faces.Nick’s other friend, Billy Jones, Angela, and two of her female friends were present.And none of them liked him which made the situation more awkward.Billy had a deep glare at him which was actually understandable after a huge fight happened between them, and he broke a nose and fractured a hand.For Finn, though, it had been one of the best days of his life. He wanted nothing more than to crack a joke about Billy finally being free of his cast, but for once, he decided to hold his tongue.Upon seeing Finn, they all suddenly laughed.Wanting in on the reason for the sudden laugh, Nick asked with an amused smile. “Wh

    “W-what?” Angela stuttered with an incredible look on her face. “How can it be that expensive? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?”The waiter frowned and handed the bill to Angela. He explained, “The dishes each of you consumed are a total of $3500, and the red wine you ordered cost a thousand dollars. The lady next to you ordered two extra bottles of imported red wine which are five thousand dollars per bottle…”The moment the waiter said that, everyone gasped and looked at Rita who sat next to Angela.“You ordered two bottles of imported red wines?! For what?!” Angela asked her.Everyone was watching her.Rita panicked and explained with a pale face. “I’m sorry… I didn't know how expensive it was. I'm so sorry, Angela.”“Well, sorry won’t cut it!” Angela yelled at her. “Fourteen thousand five hundred dollars, and I've only got five thousand!” She let out a deep breath and looked at the waiter. “Can we just return the bottles of wine?”The waiter shook his head with a stern face

    Nick looked at Finn with uncertainty. “Are you sure about this? You won't get paid, and it will be a waste of your time. Don't you have part-time jobs to go to?”Finn just shrugged.Angela looked at all of them with fear in her eyes. “Are you guys agreeing to this? This bastard is telling them to beat me.”“Don’t worry, I think ten slaps will suffice. It won’t kill you, just enough to remind you to watch what you say next time,” Finn said with a teasing smirk.Angela’s breath was getting heavy. “No…”Rita immediately chimed in, “I’m sure you can do this for us, Angela. I promise, I will give you the LV bag my boyfriend got for me, the one you like…”“Why don't you fucking call your so-called boyfriend to get us out of here?! Oh, wait, there's Jerome in the other room, I need to go to him…” As she moved, the guards blocked her path. “Please, I need to…”Slap!Angela gasped, feeling the sting, and she staggered to the side in shock.She glared at the guard and everyone else aside Finn s

    Finn rolled his eyes the moment he heard his father’s voice. He looked at Nick, and said, “There’s somewhere I need to be now. Let’s talk later.Nick nodded in understanding. “Okay, man. Thank goodness today didn't ruin your part-time job. I’ll just take Angela home,” he said and walked away.Finn also began to walk as he replied to his father. “Long time, indeed, Dad.”“I trust you've learned your lesson,” his father, Mr. Baron Lancaster said over the phone.Finn nodded. “I certainly did learn enough for three years.”“Hmm… why does your tone suggest otherwise?”Finn scoffed, and replied, “I didn't know you sent me out of the house to suffer just so I could change how I speak, Dad.”Mr. Baron replied, “I guess people don't change that easily. All I wanted was for you to stop being such a pain. You needed a wake-up call. Now, I wanna ask. Would you stop being a pain?”Finn smiled and answered, “Of course not, Dad. You know me. But I will try.”“Wow. Three years certainly wasn't enough

    As Finn stepped into the bar, the vivid glow of neon lights greeted him, while the music reverberated in his ears. His brows knitted in mild annoyance as he looked around.“Is this really the best place for a meeting?” he murmured, barely audible over the noise.“I apologize, Young Master Finn,” a voice replied smoothly from behind. “I had to choose somewhere close to your school.”Finn turned, his gaze falling upon a poised woman seemingly in her late thirties or forties with striking blonde hair that just brushed her neck. Her graceful conduct commanded attention. He had never seen her before but she looked familiar.Finn tilted his head at her. “Really? I'm sure there's also a coffee shop close to my school.”Lena blinked nervously, getting anxious. “Uh… my daughter mentioned that most of the boys from your school frequent this bar, so I just assumed...”“Your daughter?” Finn asked, his brow arching inquisitively.Lena nodded quickly. “Yes, she’s in the same year and department as

    “Finn, I knew you were working here! You said you were here to meet someone, didn't you? Were you that ashamed that you had to lie?”The one who spoke was Lara, and she was looking at Finn with a displeased expression.Finn looked at her, casually shoving his hands into his pocket. “Lie? I never did. I just had to help my roommate…”His voice trailed off as something clicked in his head, and his forehead creased.“Vincent, that bastard,” he muttered under his breath with an annoyed look.“What the hell are you saying? Are you trying to come up with more lies to tell?” Lara asked, interrupting his thoughts.Finn answered, “As I've said, I’m not a waiter here. I was just helping someone out.”“Gee, why do you keep lying?” Lara asked in disbelief. “The truth is right in front of us, and you still don't dare to admit it?”“Because there's nothing to admit…”“I know it’s possible you might feel shy, but for someone as poor as you, you should feel lucky to have a part-time job in such a hig

    Finn and Jeffer met at a small coffee shop. As soon as Jeffer spotted Finn, he pulled him into a tight hug. “It’s been ages, you silly bastard! Look at you, all grown up!” When he pulled back, his expression turned to a frown as he took in Finn’s appearance. “But seriously, what’s with this look? Are you testing out how pauper clothes look on you?”Finn scoffed, heading straight to the nearest seat. “I never told any of you, but my father punished me for that whole gambling mess.”Jeffer’s eyes widened in surprise as he took the seat opposite Finn. “Really? I remember being shocked, thinking your dad was letting you off too easy as his only son, especially after you lost that insane amount of money the first time. So, he actually punished you, huh? I told you that you were taking it too far.”Finn shook his head, his tone colder now. “I still hold him responsible for my mother’s death, but I have no intention of getting punished again now that the restrictions are gone.”Jeffer nodde

    “Who?” Nathan asked as he sat across from Finn at the Neon Bar, where Finn had arranged to meet and discuss something urgent.“A bastard named Galvin Smith,” Finn replied curtly. “I’m sure you’ve heard of him.”Nathan nodded, leaning back. “Yeah, I know that piece of work. That guy’s bad news—definitely not someone to cross,” he said, glancing briefly at the waiter who poured their beers with visibly trembling hands before bowing and walking away quickly.Nathan blinked, noting how cautious everyone seemed around Finn. It still amazed him that Finn was the real deal—a Lancaster hiding in plain sight.“Finn, can I ask something?” Nathan leaned in, curiosity sparking. “Why do you keep such a low profile? No one would guess you’re a Lancaster dressed like this. And your name—Lachlan—that’s not even your last name, right?”Finn scoffed, a faint smirk forming. “That’s my middle name.”“Oh,” Nathan said, realization dawning. “So, you’ve been using your middle name as your last name to keep

    Groans and the sound of punches echoed through the room, accompanied by frightened yells.In a campus playroom where the school’s privileged elites gathered to drink, play poker, and indulge in games like darts and billiards, chaos had broken out. A young man lay on the ground near the wall, battered and bleeding as he endured a relentless barrage of punches.“Stop, Galvin! You’re going to kill him!” one of the guys shouted desperately, but Galvin ignored the plea.He just kept punching, and punching mercilessly.Most of the room’s occupants froze, abandoning their games to watch the brutal scene unfold. Those who had been playing darts and other games flinched with every punch that connected, their faces twisted in discomfort and fear—except for one person, who remained disturbingly unaffected.“Lukas! Lukas! Can’t you get him to stop?!” Another guy begged desperately. Lukas, lounging casually on a sofa, barely spared a glance at the scene. His expression remained bored as he saw G

    “The police?!” Melanie exclaimed, her voice rising enough to draw Gia and Colette’s attention.Vincent nodded, already pulling out his phone. “Yes, let’s call them or go to the station. This is exactly what the police are for.”“Are you guys dumb?” Finn asked them with a frown. “The police won’t do anything about this.”“And why wouldn't they, Mr. Know-it-all? Isn’t this the perfect situation for law enforcement to intervene?” Vincent asked him.Gia sniffled quietly and spoke up, her voice hoarse from crying. “Finn’s right. Calling them is pointless.” She slowly sat up, her tear-streaked face pale and her red, puffy eyes revealing her exhaustion.Colette handed her a tissue, and Gia wiped her face as she continued with a trembling voice. “If we involve the police… it’ll only make things even more troublesome.”Colette shot the boys a furious glare. “You guys are just so stupid! I don't even know what you're doing here! How could you possibly think involving the police is a good idea,

    Intrigued, Finn and Vincent headed back to their dorm, eager to hear what Jason had to say.“So, what’s the deal with that rich girl?” Vincent asked as he settled on his bed.Jason chuckled, shaking his head in a mocking way. “You know I really find this funny. This is to show you that nobody knows tomorrow. A reminder that no one’s untouchable. Sure, someone might be rich, but there’s always someone above them. Even the Nexus Group has to answer to a higher power. God.”Vincent raised an eyebrow. “God? Not even the president?”Jason burst into laughter. “Oh, Vincent, you’re so clueless. Politicians rely on the wealthy. Think about it—without rich backers, where would they get funding for their campaigns or projects? There are so many corrupt politicians, and the president’s no exception! Haha! It’s all about who holds the purse strings,” he scoffed.Finn frowned, his curiosity deepening. “Are you implying the president of Nexus Group is corrupt?”Jason shrugged casually. “I’m not try

    Finn couldn't help but sigh when Angela came after him. He leaned back in his chair, and lowered his gaze, having nothing to say to her. “I’m talking to you, you bastard!” she snapped, slamming her hands on his desk. The sudden noise grabbed everyone’s attention, including Dana and also Lara, whose tear-streaked face turned toward the commotion.“Hey, aren’t you Nick’s cousin? What could Finn have done to make you barge into our lecture room like this?” a guy in the class asked, his tone curious but skeptical.Angela scoffed, her finger pointing at Finn with unrestrained contempt. “Because of this bastard—” she began, but her voice faltered as a sudden realization struck. If she revealed too much, everyone would find out about her embarrassing failure to pay for the lavish meal she’d treated her friends to at Palate Haven.Her eyes darted around nervously, and a flurry of thoughts ran through her mind. ‘I can’t humiliate myself further than I already have.’Nick raised a mocking ey

    “Was that the case or were you actually trying to hit me?” Finn asked, his tone calm and his expression blank. “Because last I checked, I was on the pedestrian path, and you were the one out of your lane.”Jerome raised an eyebrow and smirked mockingly. “Don’t say something stupid! I can drive in whatever lane I please and people like you are the ones to scram when you see an Audi driving your way! But no—you just fucking stood there like some statue! What’s wrong with you?! Do you have a death wish?!”Finn let out a dry scoff, shaking his head. “People like me, huh? It’s enough to know that this was on purpose. You wanted to run me over. I should be the one asking you what the fucking hell is wrong with you?!”Jerome let out a cold, mocking laugh, looking at him with a condescending gaze. In a low, menacing tone, he said, “And what if I did try to run you over? There's nothing fucking wrong with me and I'm as sane as ever, you worthless idiot! What could you possibly do if I really d

    The boys returned to the dormitory and Jason turned to look at Finn who was behind him. Who would have thought Finn was such a pushover with the kind of attitude he had?Jason gave him a grateful look, patting his arm and keeping his hand there for emphasis. “I don’t know how you managed to get such an expensive wine, but thanks for keeping quiet. You’re a good friend, Finn. You didn’t let me down, and now Melanie thinks the world of me.”Finn’s face remained stoic as he brushed Jason’s hand off. “Whatever,” he replied curtly.Jason chuckled, loving how he could get away with anything. “You know, for what it’s worth, Finn, that girl, Gia, I think she likes you. I mean, the way she was looking at you? Man, I’d say you’ve hit the jackpot.”Finn frowned as he made his way to sit on his bed. “Hmm. I don't think so. She was probably just being friendly.”Jason laughed, shaking his head in amusement as he found Finn funny. “You really know nothing, Finn. Were you blind not to notice that sh
