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. Let just pray this even works”Natalie suddenly felt sick, she felt like throwing up, but the rage inside was making her body extremely hot. She stands up and roars.“So Jason just got to walk away from this. This is not right at all”Her voice was turning into a tearful one.“This is meant for Jason, Jason is the one that is supposed to sign the contract not me, now he just gets to walk away, this is not fair at all, Not good at all”Robert's cheeks moved when he heard Natalie words, although he is worried about her current condition, but he couldn't ask for a better outcome than this.“Who said he is going scouts free from this”He faces Jade.“Jason will be killed tonight, Mr. Landon has sent some men after him, his life ends tonight!”Mr. Landon texted him a while ago asking for all sorts of information about Jason, only a fool won't understand what Mr. Landon motives are.Jade's face brightens up, there is no way Mr. Landon will let Jason live. Jason might even be dead already.“That bastard doesn't deserve to live, he went overboard!”Natalie's heart beat returns to normal when she hears Robert's words, she can't wait to hear the good news tomorrow or see the dead body.“Yes, that serves him right, he should die for what he did to me”**Jason comes down from the bus station, he still can't believe that he is from a prestigious family, and even the Mayor of Ocean Berry is one of his disciples.He finds this difficult to believe in a way, but the ring is real, something is expanding inside his body, and he is gaining knowledge of things he doesn't know before, he knows how long it will take him to get to the dormitory, and he also knows that five people are following him from behind.Jason halted his movement.“What do you want”He voiced out without facing them. Five men emerged from the shadows, the man in the middle was holding a cigarette, he uttered in a cocky manner.“That is sharp for an amateur, but you only discovered these morons”His eyes moved to the men beside him, he coughed out a large smoke.“I am sorry kid, but our boss wants you dead”Jason turned to face them, he had figured that out already, who would follow a kid inside a narrow shortcut, and their movement was faster immediately he entered the alley.“Is your boss name Joe Landon”The man throws his cigarettes away and steps on it.“It doesn't matter, kid. What matters is that you are going to die today”The man and his men launched forward to Jason without wasting any time.Jason's eyebrows pushed down, these men are far stronger than the bodyguard that were following Mr. Landon earlier, they seem to have reached a certain stage that differentiate them from a normal fighter.Their boss is even more powerful, Jason balled his hand into a fist, he can handle one of them, but several will be quite difficult to handle, neither the case, it's his life or theirs.The men wanted to attack when a car light suddenly shone through the narrow alley, the car was at the entrance of the alley, the brightness of the light revealed everything inside the alley, even the sands on the floor could be seen.“What the fuck is this!!”One of the men shouted as he shielded his eyes from the bright light.The boss was trying to capture the people inside the car, but he couldn't see anything.“Who the fuck are these people”One of the men shouted again, feeling irritated by the obstruction of the flow.The car door opened, and three people emerged from inside, they stepped to the front of the car and the front light switched off instantly.The place was even darker than before, a heavy breeze suddenly passed through the alley, it vibrated Bobby and his men's clothes, and the sound of footsteps was heard next.Bobby's face darkens, these people are trying to play mind games with them. Do they think that they are some kind of local gang, they probably think that they are thieves.“Go fuck these people up!”Bobby men screamed as they launched forward to the people approaching them, their screaming sound halted immediately they entered the darkness.Bobby eyebrows raised a little, what the hell is going on, he is not sensing his men's pressure anymore, they haven't even engaged in battle yet.He tried to sense the presence ahead of him, but he got nothing, a loud bang sound followed next.One of Bobby's men was sent flying to Bobby direction, he collapsed close to Bobby, his head was twisted to his back.Bobby heart kicked, what the fuck is this. Three loud kicking sound followed immediately, and three of Bobby men were sent flying to his direction, they crashed close to him. They were in the same condition as the first one.What the fuck is this.Bobby's heart was pounding heavily now, he thought these people were normal individuals, but this is not normal, how can a one-star warrior die so easily, without even getting to throw a fist.Who the fuck are these people.Somebody finally emerged from the darkness, he was standing around 206 cm tall, his presence seemed to have seized the movement of the air in the surrounding.Bobby heart beat was racing, his eyes moved to the man face, and he collapsed to his knees, what the fuck has he done, the night king himself, Giovanni Hades.

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

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

Robert's face hardened more, he wonders why Jason is so calm, is it that he doesn't know the magnitude of the offense he committed and who is judging the case. This is Mr Anthony, the head of the school disciplinary team, his words are final, nobody can change it. Mr. Anthony fist hardened, he expected this kid to be crying helplessly on the floor now, but he is acting so calm, like nothing is happening here, does he think the student president can save him. “If you just called the student president then I am sorry to inform you that the student president doesn't have the power to influence my judgment.“My words are final and final!”Robert faces Jason again. “I can't believe you actually called the student council for help, when the evidence is clearly in front of you. “Or are you saying the person on the video is not you”Jason didn't put his ears to Robert's words, but he sounded to Mr. Anthony. “I only called somebody that would listen to my side of the story, so relax, unl

The president is not going to toss this case away, what if he gets exposed by Mr. Anthony.Why did the president have to show up at such a crucial time like this, what is he even doing here. His eyes moved to Jason, this lucky bastard. Theodore stares at the door for a while before he turns facing Jason. “Jason, I apologize for Mr. Anthony's uncultured behavior. I will be handling this case now”He taps Jason on his shoulder. He would've bowed 90 degrees to him if the Mayor didn't warn him about not treating Jason specially in front of others. Jason understands what he needs to do, he smiles coolly. “He didn't give me the chance to explain myself, I am happy that you are here now, and you are taking the case personally, the person behind this would be revealed soon”Theodore nods repeatedly as he approaches Mr Antho

Robert was dumbstruck when he heard Jason's words, How can Jason refuse three hundred thousand dollars, he doesn't even have that kind of money with him, he was just doing this so he can get away from this place, then he can find a way of settling Jason with a much lesser amount, or even get him in trouble so he doesn't pay. How can Jason refuse three hundred thousand dollars. “Five hundred thousand dollars. That is the highest I can give you, I am not paying higher than that”Jason cheeks moved, he knows Robert is trying to play games with him, there is no way Robert has such an amount with him, his family might be rich, but they are just a second class family, they won't give their son such money. He is not after the money anyway. “Well, I have already told you what I want, if you really want to solve it with money, then pay me one billion dollars. One billion dollars and I will forgive you straight away”Robert's eyes teared open in shock, Jason really didn't want money. “Haha

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

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
