    Barrett coughs out blood and falls to the ground. Jason moved his gaze to him.“Do I look like I give a damn about the Malachi family. Your biggest mistake was breaking the rules and hurting my friend. Now you will pay for it”Jason wanted to move his leg when Barrett immediately bows on the floor, this kid is not joking, he could die here, he is not ready to die now.“Please have mercy master”Barrett was shaking profusely on his spot, this kid is a madman, he dares go against the Malachi family, he will pay for this, but first he has to survive. Jason placed his foot on Barrett's head, he slowly pushed his head to the ground. “When Derek recovers, I want you to go on your knees and apologize to him publicly, can you do that”Barrett squeezed his fist, this crazy bastard, he will pay for this. “Yes!, I have to, I broke the rules”Jason removed his right foot from Barrett's head. “Thank you, master”Jason turned facing Summer, then he swiftly turned to Barrett again. “Kick!”He w

He opens all the briefcase, and it was all loaded with money, this should be up to five million dollars or ten million. His breath was vibrating, where is he going to keep this much money, what if somebody comes in now. Jason moves to the door and locks it properly. He brought his phone out and called the number on the piece of paper. “Hello, Jason Spectre speaking”Giovanni sounded from his end. “Master, this is Giovanni Hades, I sent a hundred million dollars to your account, and ten million dollars to your dormitory. You must've seen it already”Jason was surprised that this came from Giovanni, he didn't expect the Hades clan to be this wealthy. “It's too much, I haven't received any message from the bank, and I can't keep ten million dollars with me”Giovanni talks with

He angrily stepped to the card direction and picked it up. He displays the card to the lady. “Do you know what you have just done. Don't bother begging for mercy because I will show you none”The lady eyebrows pushed to her eyes, how dare this bumpkin boy speak loudly without respect, does he know that he is in a bank. She came out from her position and stretched her hand to Jason. “Let me have it”Jason gives her the card, he is not going to let her off the hook for this, from the beginning she has been disrespectful towards him.

What is she going to do, she is dead for sure, how could this, how could this be possible! This kid was dressed in faded clothes, low-quality clothes that won't even cost up to fifty dollars.

    At that moment Camilla didn’t flinch. She squared her shoulders and stepped forward again. “Do you think we’re just some ordinary kids? That children don’t come from wealthy families anymore?”However The security man didn’t answer at first. His gaze flicked between her firm expression and the phone in her hand. At that moment he adjusted his belt, the corner of his mouth twitching upward as if he’d heard a joke only he understood.“My grandfather has booked Pasumi Kazoo before,” she added, her voice rising, “Once, in fact. So don’t stand there and act like we don’t belong.”Her words hung in the air. Sharp. Unapologetic.Upon hearing what Camila The security man chuckled. It wasn’t mocking—it was more of a tired laugh, the kind that came from someone who’d seen too much. He folded his arms. “I get it. You’re trying to stand your ground. That’s good. But right now, you're just behaving like a child.”Camilla’s breath caught.He went on, shaking his head slightly. “Even if your grandf

    Seeing what Jason just did Camilla blinked as Jason slipped his phone back into his pocket. “Wait… that’s it?” she whispered, glancing at her friend, then back at Jason.However Jason didn’t reply. He stood calm, his hands relaxed by his sides, his eyes fixed ahead like he was simply waiting for something he already knew would happen.Immediately Camilla’s friend leaned in and whispered, “He didn’t even say a full sentence… just one line? That’s who he called?”“Yeah,” Camilla muttered, her voice soft but unsure. “He didn’t even sound worried.”At that moment a strange tension settled over them—quiet but heavy. Then Camilla bit her lip, half in confusion, half in nervousness.Across the road, the group of friends who had been laughing earlier were still recording. One of them zoomed in and chuckled. “Oh wow, he really made a call. What now, Jason? Is a helicopter coming to pick you up?”Hearing what they just said, The security guard snorted, folding his arms in front of the entrance.

    Jason’s pace slowed a little when he spotted Camilla and her friend standing outside the elegant entrance of Pasu Mikazu. His brows furrowed.He couldn't believe they were still outside? They should’ve been inside by now, soaking in the ambiance, not lingering by the door like they didn’t belong.He stepped closer, a light crease forming between his brows as he approached them.“Hey,” he said, glancing between Camilla and her friend, “what’s going on? Why are you two still out here?”Immediately Camilla gave a short sigh, folding her arms slightly across her waist. She looked embarrassed, but also slightly frustrated.“It’s… the security man,” she said softly, gesturing toward the well-dressed but stern-looking man guarding the entrance. “He said we can’t go in.”Hearing what Camila just said, Jason blinked. “What? Why not? You have the invitation, don’t you?”“We do,” she nodded, pulling out her phone. “But he said the QR code looks fake. Apparently, they’ve been having a lot of onl

    The boys coughed and winced where they lay, nursing bruises and swallowing the bitter taste of humiliation. Their breaths came short, their faces a mix of confusion, pain, and fear. One of them, still holding onto his ribs, forced out a shaky voice."Yes, yes—we didn’t mean it!" he said, gasping.“Honestly,” another added, his voice trembling as he wiped a streak of dirt off his cheek, “we were just trying to scare you, that’s all. Just scare tactics… so you’d back down, apologize. That’s what we wanted.”Jason stood still, letting their words hang in the air like a weak excuse trying to find wings. His eyes scanned the group—ten of them, and not one could meet his gaze directly. The fear now written across their faces was thick, raw, almost pitiful.“Oh… now I understand,” Jason said slowly, his voice dangerously calm. “So it was all for show? The threats? The ambush? The part where you were going to break all ten of my fingers?”A nervous chuckle slipped out from one of the boys, bu

    One of them stepped forward—tall, lean, and arrogant, with a twisted grin that made Jason’s jaw tighten.“You know, Jason,” the guy said, cracking his knuckles, “you’re a very troublesome person.”Jason didn’t respond. His silence only seemed to encourage them.“Word around is,” another chimed in from behind, “you’ve fought with a bunch of people in this school already. You're always in some drama, right? Always in trouble. Always causing something.”Jason gave a faint smirk, but his eyes stayed focused. He could already see where this was going.“Thing is,” the first guy continued, circling him like a vulture, “tonight, there’s no crowd. No cameras. No teachers. No referees to save you. Just us. And you.”Someone behind laughed. “Yeah, and we’ve already got our story cooked up. When they ask, we’ll say you attacked us first. That you were angry because we told you the truth—that you were cheating in the game.”“That’s right,” another added quickly, “you got mad, lost your cool, and s

    Jason smiled, just a little. A tired, knowing smile.Now he understood.Now he understood why some players probably lost to these guys on purpose—why they didn't give their all on the court. Because the moment you did, the moment you showed your worth, they came after you. Not with a handshake or a respectful nod like true sportsmen—but with bitterness and threats. This wasn’t competition. This was insecurity masked as pride.Jason let out a quiet sigh, not one of fear, but of disappointment.He looked each of them in the eye, one after the other, calm and composed.“You know,” he said slowly, “this explains a lot.”The tallest one raised a brow, confused. “What are you talking about?”“This,” Jason said, gesturing casually at the group, “this attitude right here… it’s why people probably let you win in the past. It’s easier than dealing with this kind of behavior.”One of them scowled. “You think we care what people think?”“No,” Jason said plainly. “That’s the problem. You don’t car

    The entire gymnasium erupted like fireworks exploding in waves of celebration. Students from Jason’s school stormed the court, screaming and chanting his name like he was a hero in a movie come to life.“Jason! MVP! MVP!”Some were laughing. Some were crying. Everyone was jumping, hugging, high-fiving like they had just won the championship—even though it was just a qualifier. But that didn’t matter. What mattered was Jason, the so-called rookie, the boy nobody believed in, had just pulled off the impossible.Camilla’s name started floating in whispers.“No wonder she’s dating him.”“I mean—did you see that last shot?”“He’s not just fine, he’s a genius. That boy is gifted.”People were already editing Instagram stories and posting clips of Jason’s fourth-quarter domination, tagging it with: “MVP of the year.” Even the school’s teachers who had come to watch looked dumbfounded but deeply proud.Meanwhile, the opposing school’s side was dead silent. You could almost hear their heartbre

    A thick silence settled in the room. The tension was sharp enough to slice through.Then one of the men, the same one who’d been flipping his pen between his fingers since the meeting started, finally leaned forward and broke it.“What if he’s hiding something?” His voice was cautious, almost accusing. “A special ingredient? A catalyst that wasn’t listed in the video?”A few heads turned his way. The thought lingered in the air, heavy and unsettling.For a moment, no one responded.Then a man at the far end of the table, older and sharper in tone, sat up and said firmly, “We’ve all seen the footage. Watched it frame by frame. The way he handled it—every motion, every measurement—it was clean, intentional, and consistent. No hesitation. No room for secret ingredients.”Someone else nodded. “Exactly. He didn’t pause, didn’t second-guess himself. And the product? It performed exactly as described. If he had some hidden technique, it would’ve shown up in his rhythm, his flow. But everythi

    By the third quarter, the scoreboard glared back with an unforgiving truth—80 to 30. The gym buzzed, but not with hope. Greyhill’s fans were practically dancing in the stands, taunting louder with every basket, every steal. “Third year in a row!” they screamed.On the court, Jason stood still for a moment, hands on his knees, sweat dripping, chest rising steadily—but not from exhaustion. It was restraint. Every time he sprinted into open space, his hands ready, eyes calling for the ball, it never came. Not once.Instead, Marvin tried a contested jumper from the side and missed.Alex forced a drive into the paint and got blocked.“Again?” the coach growled from the sideline, yanking off his cap and throwing it down.Jason stayed calm, even though his fists were clenching tighter now.He wasn’t invisible.They were ignoring him on purpose.The tension had been building ever since that locker room talk weeks ago—when Jason said they needed to play smarter, not just harder.
