Robert and Jade's attention moved to Jason and Natalie, Jason was uncomfortable, he didn't want to see Jade's face again, certainly not on the same day she ditched him.
Robert holds Jade's hand firm.“Darling, why don't we sit opposite them”His cheeks moved to his eyes, Jade was smiling too, but it couldn't be compared to the smile on Robert.Natalie faced Jason.“Don't look at them, just let them be”Jason's fist tightened, but he nods to Natalie's words.He focused his attention on the dishes in front of him.Natalie was quick in tasting all the dishes on the table before Robert and Jade finally reached them.Robert stopped close to Jason, then he faced the waiter standing some distance away.“Hey!!, How can you serve him special dishes without collecting the bills first, does this look like somebody that can afford a hundred thousand dollars”Jade also glances at the dishes before she faces Jason.“Jason, how can you order so many special dishes, can you even afford one. This is a hundred thousand dollars, can your entire generation even provide so much money”Jason's fist tightened, but he stayed quiet to their words.“Waiter!!!, Come here quickly, you better collect the bills before this hobo finishes the meal”The waitress standing by the door finally stepped forward to the scene, she was holding the payment machine in her hand, she approached Jason.“Sir, how about you pay the bills now. The amount is a hundred thousand dollars”Jason frowns seeing she was asking him for the bills, she was the waitress who attended to them first, and she heard it clearly when Natalie said she will cover the bills.He wonders why she is asking him.Jason waited for a minute, hoping Natalie would rectify the issue, but she stayed quiet, and she was busy checking out all the dishes.“She will handle the bills”He struggled to say the words, he felt ashamed a little, especially since Robert and Jade were standing close to them.Natalie sounded immediately.“What are you saying, Jason. Didn't you say you will handle the bills”She frowns deeply.“How shameless are you, you took me out on a date, now you want me to handle the bills”Jason was stupefied.Natalie faced the waitress.“He will handle the bills”Jason was dumbfounded, he should've known that a snake remains a snake even after changing its skin.This was her plan all along, but thank goodness, there was a camera watching.Jason stays calmed.“I should've known that you are evil, apologizing for what Jade did, what a fool I was to believe you”Robert burst out laughing.“Thank goodness you know that you are a fool, now pay the bills”Jade shakes her head feeling disappointed.“Jason, why must you pretend that you are rich, accept the fact that you are poor, and you can never live our kind of life. Now, how are you going to pay for the bills”She was smiling inside, finally Jason was done for, she will do anything to make sure Jason doesn't show his face in school again, he shouldn't be among them anyway, him and those rats, those bunch of freeloaders.The waitress faced Jason.“Sir, you have to pay the bills now, you have already touched all the food on the table, we don't refund special dishes anyway”She dropped the payment machine close to Jason.Jason pushed it slowly to Natalie's side.“I have told you already, she is the one handling the bills”Natalie's face darkened, she smashed her fist on the table, and stood up quickly.“How could you be this shameless, you told me that you will handle the bills, why are you changing your words now”She faced the waitress.“Please get your security men here now, beat this bastard up for the money, if he doesn't provide it, then take him as a worker or throw him in jail!”Jason couldn't help but feel more disappointed in himself for believing Natalie, this is exactly who she is, he should've known.Robert roars.“Jason, provide the money. You are not a man, how can you ask a woman to pay for the meals you ate”Jade shakes her head feeling more disappointed.“This is one of the reasons I broke up with you, you are too poor and you still pretend. We are not going to help you on this, you must provide the money!”Jason gazed at Jade.“Like I would ever ask a bitch for help”Jade's heart kicked. Jason points the camera station at the wall close to them.“The evidence you seek is in there, ask the team to play back the recording, she admitted that she is the one paying the bills!”Jason faced the waitress.“You heard her too, but you are pretending to be dumb, let see what your audio recording will say”Natalie was flabbergasted by Jason's words, even the waitress too, Natalie looked at Robert, he was still smiling, which probably means he has this under control.Robert sounded.“She will need to take permission from her boss”The waitress nods quickly.“I need to ask my boss for permission”Jason adjusted himself in his seat.“Call your boss then”He has nothing to worry about, Natalie said it herself that she will handle the bills.Jade cried out.“I can't believe you actually don't have a hundred thousand dollars, you are such an under par”She was angry that Jason dared to insult her; she must make sure he is dealt with, before he faces his punishment.The waitress walked away to call her boss.Robert brought his phone out, his dad is friends with Mr. Landon, and he is also a good friend of Mr. Landon too, Mr. Landon is already helping him with this, but who would've thought that Jason will be smart enough to spot the camera, now he has to ask Mr. Landon for help again.[I will make it three. Three hot girls]He knows the dark side of Mr. Landon, his love for young girls is unconditional, and he is perfect at arranging such a thing.[I am on my way]Robert's cheeks moved seeing Mr. Landon's fast response, he faced Jason with a smile, this will be the last time he will see this pauper face, Mr. Landon can have him killed and nobody will ask him any questions, nobody will notice anyway.An hour later, the waitress appeared in the room again.“Our boss is on his way”Jason remained calm, but something was starting to linger inside him, he wondered why nobody was around.This place should be busy with people entering and leaving, but nobody is here, could it be everything has been arranged to that extent, then the owner is aware too.Jason was still lost in thoughts when a barking voice vibrated the room.“Who the hell is he, who refused to pay for the meals he ordered!!”Mr. Landon stormed inside with several bodyguards following him from behind.His red suit was dashing, he was a medium height man with an extremely large belly, his stomach will probably house four kids without issues.The waitress rushed to him.“Sir!, this man refused to pay for what he ordered”Landon examined Jason from head to toe, what a poor bastard, a poor man has no voice in this world, yet he dares to make trouble with the rich, he is definitely after death.Seeing Jason was more attractive than him even made him more angry, a poor bastard shouldn't be this handsome.“So
Mr. Landon quickly recovered from the slap, he faced his men and roared.“What are you still doing, release him!!”Sir George doesn't like violence, and he is the Mayor, there is no way he will folds his hand and watch him brutally assault somebody.Dammit!!This bastard is lucky that the Mayor showed up.Jason was released immediately, he was starting to break free anyway, his strength seemed to be increasing every minute.He doesn't know what is happening to him, his body seems to be packed with so much energy, surely those men won't have been able to hold him any longer.Jason walks to the exit without looking at anybody's face; however, he plans to show the Mayor his respect.Mr. Landon couldn't hold it anymore, Jason wasn't walking fast enough, he was delaying the Mayor's time.“Get the hell out of here already, Bastard!!!”George's face darkened, he would've killed Mr. Landon already if these kids weren't here, he is lucky to still be alive, and he dares insult the master again.
Jason's eyebrows raised, George was telling the truth, strange things were happening, and his body seemed to be packed with a lot of energy.“What is happening to me, does it have something to do with this ring”George examined the ring and his eyebrows raised, it's growing really fast, the master is evolving at a fast rate.At this rate, it will take only a month for the master to fully have access to all the powers that have been cultivated into the ring.This is remarkable.He faces Jason.“It has something to do with the ring, that ring is the ring of supremacy, and it's only given to the next successor of the Spectre family.“It houses all the strength and abilities of the former predecessor”Jason's heart was starting to pound heavily, this is serious, this ring is truly something else, he was scared for some unknown reason.“Why is it happening now, I have been putting it on since I was five”George stepped closer to Jason.“You are up to the age now, and your blood came in con
“I understand”He frowns as he ends the phone call, Natalie blocked his view immediately.“Can your dad help”“He can't”Robert covers his face with both of his palms.“This is the Mayor orders, my dad possibly can't do anything”Natalie's heart vibrated, she squats on the floor with more tears streaming down from her face, she would have to quit school, the contract working time is twenty hours daily, at this rate, she is never going to graduate.Her body was shaking, it's because of that animal, that pauper.Robert faces Natalie.“It's not over yet, my dad says they are having a meeting with the Mayor tomorrow, he will ask his boss to talk to him, at least you are still a student, he will lessen the working time”“What about the years, can he help with that…. it's twenty years, twenty years!”She will be forty before her contract expires, that is insane. Totally insane.Robert massaged his forehead, with a sign of disappointment written on his face.“That is the highest he can do. L
Giovanni's red eyes were glowing as he emerged from the darkness, these monkeys have no idea what they are doing, they dared to hinder the master movement, the last surviving heir of the Spectre family.They even dare to stand in his presence.He wanted to move when Bobby fell to his knees immediately.“Have mercy, your highness!. The great lord of the dark”His body was vibrating with fear, what has he done, what the fuck has he done. Mr. Landon says this kid has no background information, why is the great lord of the dark here, the king of the night is a nine-star warrior, and he is one step away from breaking through into a grandmaster.He is the strongest among the five night kings of Ocean Berry, he won't dare to mess with the underlings of the Hades, let alone the Hades king himself.“Have mercy, your highness”Bobby bows his head on the floor, he was trembling uncontrollably as he awaits the response of the night king; however, Giovanni walked past him.His attention was on th
Joe Landon sat close to his wine rack, two empty bottles of wine were close to his chair and he was holding a full glass of wine in his right hand. His attention moves to the telephone behind him, he wonders what is taking Bobby so long, it's just a kid, how long will he take to finish a mere university kid. The front door suddenly bashed open, and a man dressed in black suit rushed to Joe, his footsteps were lagging due to his shaking body, fear was completely written on his face as he reached Joe. Joe stands up when he sees the white envelope on his butler hand. He asked Bobby to send him the head of the kid, but this is just a normal envelope, there is no way the kid's head will be inside. “What is it Bernard, why the rush and why are you sweating”Bernard hands the envelope over to Joe. “Somebody delivered this to the guards at the gate, he wants us to leave Ocean Berry now”He saw how frightened the guards were, whoever delivered this letter must be a person of prestigious s
Joe heart skipped, how is this possible, that little kid is the master of the Hades clan. He ran a background check on him, and he is just a commoner, a low life pauper, one that can't even afford his meal, how can he be the master of the Hades clan. What has he done. “My Lord—”Giovanni instantly slashed Joe's head away, nobody offends the master and go scout free or live to see the next day, unless the master says otherwise. He swings his katana twice removing the blood stain on it, before he places it back in his scabbard. “Master, What do we do with the bodies”The female among the four individuals sounded. Giovanni turned facing the doorway. “Set the mansion ablaze”He gently walks to the exit, the rest of the Landon family properties will be sold to compensate the master for mental damages. Joe Landon has no family, he is an old man who has been flexing with young girls all his life, this death serves him right. “Yes, master!”The four individuals sounded at the same ti
Jason's eyebrows raised a little, Mr. Anthony is the head of the disciplinary council the school formed to handle matters of students that break the law, he wonders why Mr. Anthony is looking for him, he hasn't broken any law. “I have classes now, I will see him later”Jason wanted to walk away when the two security men blocked his path. “He demands to see you now”Jason frowns, it doesn't work this way, but it seems he has no choice here. He follows them to the office given to the disciplinary team. The security men stand at the doorway of the building, while he proceeds to Mr. Anthony's office, Jason enters the office only to see Robert sitting on one of the chairs, he immediately knew what this was all about. “Jason, What are you, a monster or an evil wizard. You don't pay your tuition fees on time, yet the school never treats you badly, but you have the grit to tarnish the school image”Jason didn't put his ears to his words, it's time-wasting to do such a thing. He steps to
The tension in the scene was palpable, the young master’s grip tightening around Summer’s neck as her face contorted with discomfort. Jason’s calm voice broke through the chaos, low and steady but laced with warning. “Let her go.”At that moment The young master turned to Jason, his expression a mixture of arrogance and disdain. “And if I don’t?” he sneered. “What are you going to do about it?”However Jason didn’t respond immediately, his sharp gaze fixed on the man. Summer’s breaths grew shallow, her panic evident in her red eyes. The young master, clearly enjoying the moment, smirked as he applied more pressure. “See? You can’t—”Before he could finish his sentence, Jason was suddenly there, his hand gripping the young master’s wrist with a force that made him wince. The speed of Jason’s movement had left the young master—and everyone watching—stunned.They couldn't believe how he got their so fast.“What the—” the young master stammered, his face twisting in shock as Jason held h
Hearing the voice Jason stood still, his body relaxed but ready, as the man across from him snarled, his fists trembling with pent-up rage.“You’ll regret this,” the man spat, his voice dripping with venom.Immediately He took a step closer, his eyes wild with anger.At that moment Jason cocked his head slightly, his gaze steady and almost bored. “Regret?” he asked, his tone calm but cutting. “I don’t think you’ve thought this through before depriving everyone from entering as if you owns the place.”Hearing what Jason just said.The man scoffed, his lips curling into a sneer. “You talk big, but let’s see what you can actually do.” Without waiting for a response, he lunged forward, swinging a flurry of punches aimed at Jason’s face.However Jason moved effortlessly, stepping just out of reach each time. This guy’s swings are wild, no focus, all brute force. Typical Amateur. He dodged another strike, his eyes locked on the man’s every move.“Is that it?” Jason said, his voice laced wi
The burly man’s face twisted with irritation as Jason maintained his firm grip on his wrist. Immediately his eyes narrowed, a mixture of anger and disbelief flashing across his features. “I’m warning you,” he growled, his voice low and menacing. “Let me go before you regret it.”However Jason’s expression remained calm, his grip steady but not aggressive. “Not until you move aside,” he said evenly. “We’re here for a reason, and you don’t have the authority to block us.”Upon hearing what Jason just said The crowd around them murmured quietly, tension rippling through the air. The man shifted his stance, trying to pull his arm free, but Jason’s hold didn’t waver. The quiet strength in Jason’s demeanor only seemed to unsettle him further.At that moment Summer, sensing the brewing storm, quickly stepped forward, her tone light but firm. “Jason, it’s fine,” she said, placing a hand on his arm. “We don’t need to make this a bigger deal than it is.”At that moment Jason glanced at her,
At that moment Jason had just turned the key in the ignition, ready to leave, when a figure appeared out of nowhere, standing in his way. He hit the brakes instinctively and blinked, his calm demeanor briefly giving way to surprise.It was Summer.She stood there with her arms crossed, her expression unreadable as she looked at him through the windshield. At that moment Jason’s heart missed a beat. “What the hell is she doing here?”Rolling the window down, Jason leaned out slightly. “Summer?” he asked, his voice carrying a mix of shock and confusion. “What are you doing here?”Immediately Summer walked over, her steps measured, her face perfectly calm—as if she hadn’t just appeared out of nowhere. “What? Surprised to see me?” she said with a faint smirk.Hearing what summer just said .Jason narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to get a read on her. “Did you—” He hesitated. “Did you see all of that?”Summer tilted her head, feigning innocence. “See what?” she replied nonchalant
At that moment Camila stepped out of the car, her heels clicking on the pavement, her expression a mixture of surprise and curiosity. “Grandfather?” she called out, her tone sharp. “What are you doing here? Why did you come?” didn’t answer her immediately. Instead, he turned his attention to Jason, his sharp eyes studying him for a brief moment before extending a hand.Jason, unfazed by the unexpected formality, shook his hand firmly.“I’ve heard good things about you,” her grandfather said, his tone calm but laced with curiosity. He glanced at the car behind Jason, his eyes lingering on the sleek Mercedes G-Wagon. “Impressive vehicle.”Jason nodded politely, his expression neutral. “Thank you, sir.”At that moment Camila folded her arms, her frustration mounting. “Grandfather, why are you here?” she pressed, her voice carrying a slight edge. “You don’t just show up like this.”At that moment Her grandfather finally turned to her, his expression unreadable. “The school management
At that moment Jason’s calm words seemed to hang in the air, leaving the group momentarily stunned. “Bring the car around,” he had said, as though it was the most natural thing in the world. But to everyone else, it was absurd, they couldn't believe what they just heard.“Did he just… call for a car?” one of the boys whispered, his disbelief evident. “Jason? The guy who probably doesn’t even own a scooter?”Another laughed, the sound sharp and mocking. “What car is he talking about? Is he hoping a taxi will count as his ride now?”The murmurs quickly turned into open insults, their frustration boiling over. “Jason’s at it again,” someone said loudly, shaking their head. “Always trying to save face. What’s next? Claiming he owns the building too?”At that moment Robert, sensing an opportunity to fuel the fire, stepped forward with a smug grin. He looked directly at Jason, his voice loud and condescending enough for everyone to hear. “You know, Jason, you’ll never change, will yo
However Camila’s gaze stayed fixed on Natalie, her expression cold but controlled. “Apologies,” she said, her voice firm and deliberate, “are best done on knees. That is, if the person apologizing is reasonable enough.”Upon hearing what Camilla just Said.Natalie’s face burned with humiliation, but the weight of Camila’s words left her with no room for defiance. She glanced around, searching for even a shred of support from the boys, but all of them avoided her gaze. Slowly, reluctantly, she dropped to her knees, her head bowed low.“I’m sorry,” Natalie said, her voice trembling, though she tried to sound composed. “I shouldn’t have said all those words. Please forgive me.”The boys exchanged awkward glances, clearly uncomfortable but unwilling to challenge Camila. One of them finally cleared his throat, trying to ease the tension. “Alright, she has apologized. Let’s just cover her bill and move on.”Another nodded quickly, eager to move past the awkwardness. “Yeah, we can handle
At that moment The room fell into an awkward silence, the earlier mockery evaporating as Jason’s calm declaration settled over everyone. The group exchanged uneasy glances, disbelief etched across their faces.“Did he really just say he’s got this?” one whispered, leaning toward his friend.“There’s no way,” another murmured, shaking his head. “Jason doesn’t have that kind of money. What’s he playing at?”Jason, seemingly unfazed.‘His expression remained calm, but his mind wasn’t as quiet. They think they’ve cornered me. Let them think what they want. They’ll see soon enough.’At that moment Camila’s voice cut through the room like a knife. “Wait.”All heads turned toward her. The tension thickened as she reached into her purse, pulled out her own sleek black card, and tossed it onto the tray with a sharp flick of her wrist. The waiter froze, glancing between Jason and Camila.“I’ll pay,” she said firmly, her tone brooking no argument.Jason paused mid-motion,His eyes met Camila’s,
Upon seeing what Camilla just did.The room was suffocating with unspoken tension, the weight of past revelations still lingering in the air. At t that moment Camila’s voice rose, clear and steady, demanding attention without raising its volume.“Enough,” she said again firmly, stepping forward. Her heels clicked against the floor, drawing every eyes to her. “What’s done is done. The past doesn’t matter anymore—it’s gone, and it’s staying that way. What matters is what a person can offer now, and in the future.”Immediately her gaze swept the room, locking onto each face, daring anyone to argue, but none said anything they were still shocked to what was happening.At that moment she turned to Jason, her expression softening slightly. “And when I look at Jason,” she continued, “I see someone who’s got a bright future ahead of him.”Hearing what Camilla just said.Natalie couldn't help but shake her head.She couldn't believe what she was hearing, how can Camilla say such nonsense, c
