Chapter - 16

"Where is Mr Wilson?" As Mathew climbed down the stairs, he asked one of the ladies walking by.

"The Master has already left," but before the lady could reply, a young man, maybe in his late twenties or early thirties, replied.

"Ohh..." Mathew nodded, remembering what his father told him last night, "And you are..." Mathew looked unsure of the man in front of him. He had not seen him before.

"While you are here, I will be the one assisting you," the man respectfully told Mathew, "My name is Sebastian. Don't hesitate to call upon me if you need anything."

"Sure... Thank you. I am Mathew."

"I know...I know, young master," With a smile on his face, Sebastian nodded his head. But soon, his face turned serious, "But young master, shouldn't you be referring to the master more affectionately? Instead of calling him out formally, like a stranger?"

"I am still working on that," Mathew replied, but did not explain much. And hearing him, Sebastian did not say anything further regard

    Chapter - 17 "Young master, we should..." Sebastian followed inside the store closely behind Mathew but stopped when he heard someone call out to his young master. When he looked up, he was happy to see a pretty girl staring at his young master intently without blinking. 'God, young master is such a player. He even had a girl waiting for him.' Sebastian grinned ear to ear, thinking about it. But what Sebastian did not know was that the girl herself was not happy to see Mathew. In fact, her eyes were wide open in horror to see Mathew there. The girl was none other than Stacy, Mathew's ex-girlfriend. Huh... Even destiny was playing games with Mathew and Stacy. Earlier, Mathew and Stacy could not see each other's faces for days, even if they wanted to. But now, in the last three days, they had crossed paths with one another at the most unexpected places when they did not want to. It was hilarious. "Who is she, young master? Friend of yours?" Sebastian whispered to Mathew loud enough

    Chapter - 18 "What is a poor bastard like you doing here?" Georgie ignored the sales lady as soon as he saw Mathew. With a smirk on his face, Georgie knew he had the opportunity to humiliate Mathew, which he hoped for all along. "What bad luck," Mathew could not help but curse under his breath. He then looked behind Mathew and saw Stacy looking at him with a smug on his face. He was sure that she had called Georgie here. Bitch can’t even face him without her shield. And now that he looked at her from a distance, Mathew saw that Stacy was wearing the same uniform as the lady helping his. 'So she worked here?' Mathew had this thought, but it was fleeting. He did not care about it much. Whatever she did, it was her business. After all, even he worked a couple of part-time jobs after school. But, contrary to what Mathew thought, Stacy felt humiliated. In fact, Mathew guessed it right, Stacy indeed was the one who called Georgie here. To come across Mathew after she had just left him f

    Chapter - 19 "A hundred thousand dollars? Not bad... Not bad at all," Georgie, with a meaningful smile on his face, nodded as he looked at the shocked face of Mathew. "So, how would you like to pay, the esteemed customer? Cash or card?" Georgie mockingly asked. By this time, the sales lady had also started scanning the clothes. One after the other, she scanned all the clothes as fast as possible. It took her a couple of minutes before she was done. "It would be $109,999." The lady told the amount as soon as she was done scanning the clothes. "Alright..." Sebastian nodded and turned towards Mathew, "The card, young master." "Is it alright? It is too much money to spend on just a dozen of outfits," Mathew looked troubled. He was not worried that he won't be able to pay. He just thought that it was just too wasteful. Even if it were a million dollars, Mathew could pay it without any trouble. After all, he was no longer the miserable, poor boy he used to be. "No worries, young mast

The boy did not deny it when most people would have.Mathew nodded."It's true that there was some problem with the payment. But it's nothing but his twisted imagination that I came here to steal clothes with my bare face for everyone to see. I am not as stupid as him, after all," Mathew taunted Georgie as he spoke."... And my friend here did call this store shabby," Mathew further told Diana and shrugged, "After all, he is from the capital. He had seen things that this frog can't even imagine.""So you are saying it was right of him to call this store, my store, shabby?" Diana asked as she looked intently at Mathew."No... Not at all," Mathew shook his head, and this made Diana feel a little better, "But who am I to disagree. It's his choice, he can think whatever he wants to." In the end, Mathew ended up taking no side."Is that so?" Diana suddenly found the boy interesting."How dare you talk to her li

Sebastian said, "Even after paying for the clothes, the ridicule and insults will stay etched on our hearts. Well, I can manage, but what about my young master? Who is going to be responsible for that?" Sebastian asked."Why are you going on and on about young master? No need to pretend. Did he pay you money to act? Because we all know he is nothing but poor..." Stacy was annoyed and wanted to lash out at Sebastian, but she stopped as Diana raised her hand.“You have one rude bitch in your staff. If this is the standard of your store then I was right. This store is indeed shabby,” Sebastian said smirking and it hit Diana hard. Though she had a smile on her lips, one could see her lips twitching in anger."Well... That's true… I guess I need to pay more attention when hiring my employees," Diana nodded. She found Sebastian's w

And hearing that lone comment, suddenly the crowd broke into a frenzy. After the first transaction failed, they all pounced on Mathew, calling him names. But now, Mathew suddenly pulled a reversal, and now, every face was red with shame. But even now, not everyone was feeling embarrassed. Diana was amused. The sales lady in charge of Mathew's transaction was happy. She was finding it difficult to hold her face straight. She tried not to show it on her face, but inside, she was jumping with joy.

Sebastian exclaimed with a smile but did not answer."Don't oh me... Tell me, what is going on?" Annoyed by his smile, Mathew frowned, “Do you know how scared I was? One moment, and I would have been labelled a thief, rotting in jail for god knows how long. That Georgie’s uncle would have made sure of it.”“How can that be?” Sebastian continued to be in a jolly mood, “Your father and the Wilson family would have brought down the police station if they dared to lock you in there. Just for a hundred thousand dollars? The Wilsons’ would have become a laughing stock.”“Just get to the point. Why did this card not work?” Mathew was annoyed. Sebastian was always

And after Mathew had made sure that no one from his school was around, he stepped out of the car.“I will be waiting for you here,” As he walked away, Sebastian could only watch his young Master walk away."Why is he so hesitant to claim what is his?" Sebastian thought out loud, and when Mathew was out of sight, he turned the car back home.~ ~ ~ ~ ~"Hey, Mathew!

Georgie's uncle was so shocked to see his boss there that he did not even ask for the reason the Superintendent hit him. "Why else? To see what your wretched ass is up to," the Superintendent said as he looked at Mathew, "Misusing your authority to frame innocent citizens. You bastard really have no fear of anyone, do you?" "Superintendent?" Georgie's uncle looked at his boss, confused. “What Superintendent? Do you even take me as the Superintendent?” 'Is this boy related to the Superintendent?' Georgie's uncle tried to think. But no matter what, he could not remember seeing anything influential in the boy's background. What was it then? A misunderstanding?

And for about an hour, he had been sitting there, all alone. No one came to see him. They did not even give him a drop of water to drink. They were surely treating him like a wanted criminal. Wanted for something much worse than beating the shit out of your love rival.And on top of everything, somehow, he had started to feel cold. When he entered the room, it was somewhat warm. But as time passed, the temperature in the room dropped continuously. So much so that he was almost shivering in his boots right now.It was a psychological thing. A tactic used by the police to intimidate and play with the psyche of the felon. Mathew was not new to it. Not that he had faced it before. But, he had seen it in many of those crime thrillers. As the temperature drops, it is easy to scare the criminal into admitting most of the things that the
