The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre CHAPTER 69
The room was silent as what Jason said kept echoing in the air.Jason stood tall, his face hard and expressionless, and his eyes were cold as ice. He picked up the knife on a food plate.He held the knife in his hand like someone who is ready to use it without hesitating. Its knife blade was glinting in the low light. His grip was firm, and there was no hesitation in his movements.He looked straight ahead, ignoring any little sympathy he was having in his mind around; he's a beast, and he's not going to have sympathy for a human who see himself as a beast. At that moment, The Junior Master, a young man who usually carried himself with pride, now find himself in a situation that tested his every nerve. The Junior Master, though, was trying to appear confident he couldn't just give his fear away; he decided to hide the tremor in his voice as he spoke.“You’ve made a mistake, young man.” The Junior Master said, his voice shaky but laced with a forced authority. “You don’t know who
The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre CHAPTER 70
Jason's words were short and straight forward, the underground master knowing the Hades clans were involved in the situation now, the underground master knowing he must obey, he couldn't hesitate to look at Jason with fear. He knew he had no choice. Jason's words were always short and straightforward, but they carried a weight that could crush a mountain.“Cut one of his fingers.”Jason said again, his voice steady, but this time, with the look on his face, one could tell he can do anything and destroy them with just his order.The master hesitated for just a moment before making his mind up; he knew better than to argue at this moment. His hands started shaking as he held the knife tightly, and his vein started showing in his already weak hands.The junior master stared at his father with wide, terrified eyes. His lips quivered, and tears began to spill down his cheeks even more. He can't escape now; if his father can't do anything, it means he too can't do anything either. He cou
The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre CHAPTER 71
Camila Joseph was holding her phone in hand, staring at Jason's number. She had sent him some money, and she wanted him to use it to buy a good suit for himself. She didn't do some background checks on him, and Summer was so kind enough to tell her a few things about him that she thought to her this would be the best decision. She really wanted him to look nice for the upcoming event. Camila had high standards, and it was understandable, given her family’s status. They were wealthy and well-known, and she wanted Jason to fit in with his handsome face and book so it wouldn't be difficult to blend in.Jason received the message and the money, and he stared at his phone for some seconds, not knowing what to say. He felt a bit overwhelmed because this would be the first time he's recovering something for someone they have not even met. Without being told, he knew Camila’s standards were high—maybe too high for him then, but he understood why. Her family is very important in the count
The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre CHAPTER 72
Jason stepped out of the car; he was looking sharp in the limited edition suit.The fabric shimmered under the light, catching everyone's attention. Camila’s family, who were already gathered outside waiting for Jason to arrive, were all shocked by his appearance. They weren't expecting him to look this smart, and the suit he was putting in looked expensive. Camila, her eyes also wide with surprise, immediately, without wasting any time, quickly approached Jason. She gently took his hands, her fingers brushing against the smooth fabric of the limited edition suit.“Jason… Where did you get this suit?” She asked, her voice soft but laced with curiosity.Jason smiled and looked bold as always; he started tilting his head slightly as he met her gaze. “You told me to look good, didn’t you? So, I did what you wanted.”Camila’s surprise didn’t fade away. Instead, it deepened as she continued to look at Jason.Without being told, she could tell the suit was not just any suit; it was some

At that moment, everything was shocked as they all gazed at Jason. His words made everyone freeze in their position. They couldn't believe what they just heard. How could the painting be fake?Roy couldn't hold it in, and he burst out laughing. “Jason or whatever you call yourself, you're out of your mind!” He shouted while still laughing. “How can you say that Camilla's grandfather bought a fake painting? Are you saying that the Joseph family, one of the wealthiest families around, is displaying a fake painting on their wall for everyone to see? That's ridiculous! You probably haven't seen many expensive paintings in your entire life, so you think this one is fake.”Camilla’s grandfather at that moment frowned. He wasn’t happy with what Jason said. His eyes narrowed as he looked at Jason, trying to understand why he would make such an outrageous claim, and the manner in which he said it speaks a lot. He looks so confident, and he doesn't look like someone who doesn't know what he

The room was filled with tension. As Jason’s words hung in the air, it kept ringing in each of their minds, making everyone pause. All eyes turned to the photo he had just revealed to be fake. Jason opened the picture that was sent to him and said calmly.“Here, take a look at it; this will show you I wasn't lying and saying the truth; I saw this same picture in the heavenly box, and it was the real one.”At that moment, everyone immediately stepped forward as they looked at the picture. It showed a group of people standing in front of a famous painting, but the most shocking part was the man standing right in the center. It was the head of the management, the same man who guided Jason and his friends around the mayor's office earlier that day. The discovery sent a wave of surprise through the room as their eyes were focused on the picture.Camila’s eyes widened as she stared at the photo closely. Her family was just as stunned as she was. “How did you get this?”Camila's voice tr

Hearing what Roy said, the room was filled with nervous tension as everyone watched Jason and his actions with bated breath. They couldn't believe he's still bold and trying to prove a useless point that doesn't exist. However, Camila’s grandfather couldn’t help but chuckle. Though there was a flicker of anger in his eyes, he was disappointed in Camilla. He thought she would have the right mindset to pick someone who is well-to-do and comes from a great family, but she then decided to introduce a loser to him, someone who doesn't have respect. He didn’t show his disappointment openly, but the tightness in his jaw was a clear sign of how angry he was.His voice was steady but laced with disbelief, and it cut through the silence. “This is what you planned to prove, Jason? This trick? This was all done at the audition house; it was done by a professional that has been doing it for years, even before you were born, and it was proven real! , but you came into the house and uttered nons
The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre CHAPTER 76
Camila's grandfather stood there, staring at the fake painting, his face pale and his hands trembling. He couldn’t believe it. The painting he had cherished and spent so much money on was a fake.At that moment, his disbelief quickly turned into anger, and his jaw clenched as he reached for his phone. “I’m calling the agency in charge of this crap!!”He snapped, his voice filled with anger. “They need to be held accountable for selling fake art work and claiming it was real.”But before he could dial the number, Jason stepped forward, gently placing a hand on the old man's arm. “Please, don’t”Jason said calmly, his eyes soft and calculative.“Let me handle this. I will make sure your money is refunded, and I will bring those responsible to justice. But if you call them now, it might get out of control, and I don’t want Camila or anyone else to think badly of me as the guy that created the mess.”Jason said all of that because he doesn't want Camilla's father to escalate the situat

At the Private Dinner TableThe weight of Jason’s words settled over the room like a storm brewing on the horizon.No one spoke for a second—not because they didn’t want to, but because they didn’t know how to respond.Rio Grade Design.That wasn’t just any company.That was the company.A fortress of exclusivity.A place where money, family influence, and powerful connections meant nothing.You either earned your way in—or you were nobody to them.And yet, Jason just said he had connections there.A sharp laugh broke the silence.Dry. Disbelieving.The guy in the navy suit, who had been questioning Jason all night, shook his head.“Do you even hear yourself?” he scoffed, leaning forward.His eyes gleamed with frustration, like he was trying to convince himself Jason was lying.“No one has connections in Rio Grade Design.”A few people nodded, murmuring in agreement.A girl in gold silk folded her arms.“That company doesn’t allow outsiders to pull strings. That’s their whole reputati
CHAPTER 176
At the Private Dinner TableThe weight of Jason’s words settled over the room like a storm waiting to break.The laughter was gone.The mocking smirks had disappeared.Now, there was only stunned silence.Because if what Jason was saying was true…Then he wasn’t just some random junior.He was someone who had walked into DF Shopping Mall, dropped five million dollars in cash, and walked out with a dress that had been untouched for years.A dress that even the richest among them wouldn’t dare to touch.The murmurs spread.A few people leaned toward each other, whispering.Camila could see it—the doubt, the disbelief, but also… the curiosity.They wanted to challenge him.They wanted to tear the story apart.But the problem was… they couldn’t.Because the rumor was real.Everyone in their world had heard it—that someone had bought the DF symbol dress for five million dollars in cash.And now—Jason was saying it was him.Someone finally broke the silence.A guy in a gray suit, his voice
CHAPTER 175
At the Private Dinner TableThe air remained thick even after everyone sat back down.Jason could feel it.The way their eyes still lingered on him, waiting, expecting him to slip.Camila’s defense had stopped them—for now.But it hadn’t changed their minds.They still thought he was a fraud.A scammer.And now, they wanted proof.The guy in the navy suit smirked, tapping his finger against the rim of his wine glass.“So, Jason.” His voice was smooth, calculated. “Since you were keeping a low profile, prove it.”A few people nodded in agreement.Some even leaned forward slightly, intrigued.Jason could tell—they weren’t just asking.They were challenging him.Because if he failed to prove himself here, whatever respect he had gained would vanish instantly.Camila crossed her arms, irritation flickering in her gaze.“Seriously?” she scoffed.“You just asked him all these questions, accused him of being a con artist, and now you want proof? What, are we in court?”A few people chuckled
CHAPTER 174
At the Private Dinner TableThe pressure in the room was thick.Jason was being scrutinized, tested.Camila could feel it—the weight of their stares, the unspoken challenge in their words.They weren’t just curious.They wanted to see him fail.To prove that he was nothing.Her fingers tightened slightly around her fork.Then—she cleared her throat.Loud enough for everyone to hear.“Alright, that’s enough.”Her voice was firm, sharp.The entire table paused.Camila leaned forward slightly, her eyes scanning each of them.“This isn’t an interview for my boyfriend. This is my pre-birthday party.”Her tone hardened.“Why the hell are you all asking him these questions? Are you trying to say I’m lying?”A heavy silence followed.For a moment, no one spoke.Then, someone sighed, shaking their head.“No one’s saying that, Camila. We were just curious.”A few people nodded, pretending to back off.Camila could tell—they weren’t dropping it.They were just changing tactics.And sure enough—
CHAPTER 173
At the Private Dinner TableThe atmosphere shifted the moment Jason stood up.No hesitation. No nerves. Just pure confidence.Camila's classmates exchanged glances, some amused, some intrigued.“Wait, is he actually serious?” someone murmured.A girl in a wine-colored dress covered her mouth, stifling a giggle. “He’s really going to play?”Somebody in a navy suit, the one who had pulled up the video, leaned back in his chair, smirking.“This should be interesting.”Jason didn’t acknowledge any of them.His movements were calm, calculated.He walked toward the sleek, black keyboard that had just been brought in.The hotel staff carefully positioned it, making sure it was properly set up.The air was thick with anticipation.Some expected him to fail.Others just wanted to see what he’d do.Camila, however, was holding her breath.Her thoughts raced.Jason had never played the piano in front of her.He had never even mentioned it.So… was he bluffing?Was this just another act of defian
CHAPTER 172
Outside the Private SuiteCamila walked up to Jason, her posture poised as always, but there was a slight stiffness in her movements.She exhaled softly before speaking.“Jason, I’m sorry.”Jason tilted his head slightly, his eyes calm and unreadable.“For what?”Camila hesitated for just a fraction of a second before answering.“For not telling you about the pre-birthday party.”Jason let out a quiet chuckle, shaking his head.“There’s nothing to apologize for.”Camila’s brows furrowed slightly, sensing something off in his tone.Then Jason spoke again, his voice calm, distant.“Our relationship is fake anyway.”Her fingers curled slightly.Something about the way he said it—like it was a fact, like it was obvious—bothered her.Not because he was mistaken.But because lately, she had started to forget that.She had gotten used to him.To having him around.To the way he never tried to impress her, never treated her like she was above him.And yet, here he was—reminding her.Camila to

Jason leaned back slightly, his expression still unreadable.“Camila didn’t tell me.”Camila’s grandfather exhaled, shaking his head.“Of course, she didn’t,” he muttered. “That girl only thinks about herself sometimes.”Jason remained silent.The old man continued, his tone firmer now.“She left this morning to join her classmates for the pre-birthday party.”Jason’s eyes narrowed slightly.She had already gone ahead without saying a word to him?Camila had always been impulsive, but something about this still felt off.Her grandfather, as if sensing his thoughts, leaned forward.“I want you to be there, Jason.”His voice was not a request.Jason met his gaze. “Why?”The old man exhaled again, this time more slowly. “Last year, when Camila’s classmates held this pre-birthday celebration, everyone came with their boyfriend or girlfriend.”His eyes darkened slightly.“Everyone… except Camila.”Jason said nothing, but he could already see where this was going.“She was the only one ther
CHAPTER 170
At that moment Jason leaned back slightly, his gaze calm, unwavering.“I’ll pay the amount,” he said smoothly. “But on one condition.”The CEO raised an eyebrow. “Oh?”Jason’s smirk deepened. “You have to announce publicly that someone purchased the dress for thirty million dollars.”At that A beat of silence followed.Then—The woman’s eyes flickered with something unreadable.The room itself felt heavier.For the first time in their conversation, she didn’t respond immediately.Instead, she studied him carefully, as if trying to find a crack in his confidence.Did he really have that kind of money?Did he even flinch at the price?No.He was completely composed.As if thirty million dollars was nothing.Her fingers lightly tapped against her armrest as she exhaled slowly.“…Interesting,” she murmured.Jason didn’t blink. “So? Is it a deal?”The woman was silent for another second—then, surprisingly, she reached out her hand.Jason took it.They shook hands.It wasn’t just an agreem
CHAPTER 169
At that moment Jason leaned back in his chair, his expression calm, almost amused.“How much are you willing to pay for me to return the dress?”The CEO studied him for a moment, then smirked.“I’ll give you two million dollars.”Jason raised an eyebrow. “Two million?”She nodded. “You’ve already taken all the praise for buying it. Giving you the full amount would be a loss for me.”At that moment Jason exhaled lightly, as if he found the situation ridiculous.Then, he shook his head. “That won’t work for me.”The woman arched a brow. “Oh? And why not?”Jason’s gaze didn’t waver. “Because if people see that the dress is back in the store in less than a day,” he said smoothly, “then I’d be the biggest loser of them all.”His tone was calm, but firm.The CEO’s smirk faltered slightly.Jason continued, his voice dropping just a notch lower. “If you really want the dress back, give me ten million dollars, and I’ll hand it over.”The scene went silent.For a moment, there was nothing but
