Charles had been sitting in his office for hours, deep in thought. He had already bought everything he ever wanted luxury cars, designer suits, a grand mansion—but something still felt missing. He wanted something bigger, something that would not only be useful but also make a statement. That’s when the idea struck him: he would buy a private jet.

With fifty million dollars in his bank account, he had more than enough to afford one. Many wealthy businessmen owned private jets, and he knew it was a smart investment. It would save him time, make traveling more comfortable, and give him the freedom to fly whenever he wanted.

The moment he made the decision, he picked up his phone and called Alison, his trusted assistant and close friend. As always, she was excited about his plans. The next morning, she arrived early at his mansion and prepared breakfast for him.

"Have you decided which company you’re buying from?" she asked, placing a cup of coffee in front of him. She knew there were th

The events at the private jet and the tense confrontation at the hotel had left him bruised, both physically and emotionally, but his resolve was stronger than ever. Ice packs and pain medications were quickly applied as they discussed their next move. The silence between them was thick, and it felt like the calm before the storm.Charles, still recovering from the harsh blows earlier in the day, stared out the window. His thoughts were heavy with the weight of the situation. His mind kept replaying the words of the governor, Lawrence, who had been nothing but cruel. The idea that Lawrence would go to such lengths to bring him down was maddening. But Charles wouldn’t back down. Not now.Alison looked at him, concern etched on her face. “Are you sure about this? This could get worse. Lawrence won’t let you get away with it so easily.”Charles met her gaze, his jaw set in determination. “I d

    It was a bustling Friday evening, and Charles Grey, exhausted from a long day of deliveries, wove his scooter through Los Angeles' packed streets. His destination was the famous Diamond Hotel. Known for hosting the city's elite, delivery here frequently resulted in big tips—a rare bright spot in an otherwise dreary existence.Charles' life had devolved into an endless cycle of guilt and work. His wife, Sophia, was always berating him, her anger more piercing than the darts she threw every day. It was never enough, no matter how hard he worked. He clung to the hope that his drive would eventually win her over, even though her disdain weighed heavily on him every day.With its imposing façade shining in the city lights, the hotel towered over the horizon. In an attempt to dodge critical looks, Charles placed his battered scooter in the farthest part of the lot.In the glass entryway, his rumpled clothes, unkempt hair, and tired demeanor revealed his exhaustion. The lobby's concrete floo

    Charles Grey's nostrils filled with a harsh, sterile odor as he opened his eyes briefly. He shuddered at the glaring fluorescent lights overhead. He blinked a lot as he tried to get used to his strange environment. His intuition was reinforced by the faint buzz of equipment and the clinical beeping of a heart monitor: he was in the hospital.For a minute, he lay there, trying to piece together what had happened. His head pounded, and his body felt heavy with lead. Raising himself gingerly on one elbow, he sank back into the bed as soon as a piercing pain sprang through his temples.“What on earth happened to me?" he murmured, his voice barely audible and harsh.Memories began to arise, fragmented and jumbled. The hotel night. Humiliation's oppressive weight. The enigmatic voice had been echoing in his mind. Then the darkness fell.Just as he was trying to piece everything together, the same frightening and mechanical voice resounded in his thoughts.“[LINKING THE BLACK CARD SYSTEM…]”

    "Good day, how can I assist you?" One of the attendants at the front desk greeted Charles as he approached. She scrutinized him for a few moments, her face twisting in distaste due to his attire."I am Charles Grey, and I wish to—""We do not accept any delivery services at Silver Plaza Hotel," the woman interrupted. "Our patrons are highly esteemed professionals who receive top-tier gourmet meals; they do not require food delivery. Kindly leave before one of our distinguished guests notices your unkempt appearance," she added, signaling for him to go."You heard her, take your leave now," Ethan chimed in, his expression full of mockery. "They have important people, like myself, to attend to. And when you go home, do try to freshen up; you're giving off quite the stench."Charles disregarded his remarks and addressed the woman. "I'm not here to place an order. I'd like to pay for one of your exclusive offerings.""You?" The woman raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "Pay for a service?" Sh

    Alison escorted Charles into the vast, elegant halls of the hotel's private portion. The most important visitors were allowed to use this area of the hotel.As she walked, she occasionally glanced behind her at Charles. She had met many powerful people in her role at the hotel, but something about him caught her attention. It could have been his demeanor or the fact that he chose not to flaunt his wealth like other people did.Alison has worked as the relationship manager at the hotel for almost four years. She had witnessed the extravagant lifestyles of some of the city's wealthiest residents. The hotel was known for its luxury services, catering to only those who could afford the best. Yet, Charles was different. Despite having a membership that was exclusive to the wealthiest men, he didn't wear pricey clothing. Instead, he wore an old, plain uniform, as if he had just concluded a day’s labor. This made Alison wonder if he could be one of the city’s billionaires.Based on his appea

    As Charles continued to decide on which ability to pick, Ethan, along with the head chef of the establishment, stormed into his private space without so much as a knock. Both Charles and Alison stared at the pair, caught off guard as they stood before them.The man, a longtime friend of Ethan, worked as the hotel’s head chef. Before this position, he had been a renowned chef, even earning accolades for his culinary skills. He was hired by the CEO of the hotel after begging multiple times to join the staff. The chef had a rude disposition and frequently belittled others, especially due to his elevated status in the hotel. He often felt superior to the rest of the employees.After Ethan’s removal from the hotel, he called his friend, relaying everything that transpired. The head chef was furious and wanted to confront the one who dared to treat his friend with disrespect.“What is going on here?” Alison asked, perplexed by the duo’s behavior.It was then that Ethan took a proper look at

The air was thick with the smells of spices and sizzling meals, a natural setting for what would soon become a fierce rivalry.Alison entered the kitchen and began gathering all of the managers and supervisors who might be interested in witnessing this unprecedented challenge.

    Jeremy dropped to the ground, gripping Charles' ankle as tears streamed down his face. "I’m begging you! Don’t let them take this job from me. I will lose everything."Charles yanked his leg free, and Jeremy sprawled on the cold kitchen floor, his pleas echoing through the silent room.“You disrespected me, ridiculed me both in private and in front of everyone. You claimed to be untouchable, yet I defeated you effortlessly. Let this serve as a reminder—never belittle someone based on how they look or what you think they can’t do.”The crowd of onlookers stood frozen, watching as Jeremy continued his pitiful display. Tears soaked his face as he begged for mercy. Ethan, lurking in a dark corner of the room, looked as though the ground might swallow him. He realized his plan had backfired. Both he and Jeremy were about to face the consequences of their actions.“Please, I’ve changed! I swear I won’t make the same mistakes again,” Jeremy wailed, his voice cracking under the weight of his

    "Wake up, Charles! It's 8 am!" The loud alarm echoed through the room, jerking Charles awake. With a curse, he slapped the button to stop the noise and rubbed his eyes. He quickly sat up in bed, checking his schedule. His eyes widened when he realized he had to go to Bennett's corporation for the official handover. He still didn’t have the company’s ownership rights, and if he wasn’t careful, the Bennetts might try to run off with it.Just as he was about to head out, a new system notification popped up in front of him. A grin spread across his face. It had been a while since he received a task.“Spend $50 million in 24 hours and earn 2 black card points.”[Funds have been transferred to your bank account.]As expected, his phone beeped with the notification. $50 million had just been deposited into his account. The screen disappeared, and Charles went back to his morning routine, his mind already running through ways to spend the money.After dressing, his chauffeur drove him to Benn

    “Let me go!” Charles snapped, trying to shake Ethan off.Ethan clung to Charles’s leg with desperation, his fingers digging into the fabric of Charles’s expensive suit. His voice was hoarse, raw with emotion. “Please, Charles! We can figure this out. I’ll do whatever you ask. I’m begging you—for Sophia’s sake—don’t do this to me.”Charles let out a cold, bitter laugh and kicked Ethan’s hands away. His sharp eyes burned with fury. “There’s nothing you can say that will change my mind. You tried to get rid of me, and now, I’ll take everything that belongs to you. I warned you to stay away, but you didn’t listen.” He narrowed his eyes. “And just so we’re clear—I don’t care about Sophia. I don’t care about your family.”Ethan’s eyes widened with fear. His lips trembled as he struggled to breathe as if the weight of reality had just crashed down on him. He looked around, hoping for support, but the people in the crowd only watched in stunned silence. Some were already whispering, while oth

    A week had passed, and the grand hall of the Diamond Home Hotel was absolutely packed. Some of the city's top businessmen were all there, and not just for a regular meet-up, but for a big event. They were there for one thing: the epic showdown between Charles and Ethan. Charles had personally invited everyone, ensuring that it was going to be a huge spectacle, something no one would forget. His plan? To show off how the Bennett family was about to embarrass themselves in front of the whole city. This wasn’t just about business—it was personal.Naturally, most of the businessmen couldn’t wait to attend. After all, Charles was one of the top names in town. This event was a chance to see if the rumors about him were true—that he was as powerful, successful, and untouchable as the articles claimed.The buzz in the room was palpable, a swarm of whispers and gossip. Some people couldn’t believe that the Bennett family had actually dared challenge Charles. To them, it was nothing short of ri

    As soon as Charles stepped out of Bennett’s house, the room felt like an icebox. Mrs. Bennett’s patience had hit rock bottom, and she turned her anger on her son, Ethan, almost shaking with frustration.“How could you bet our entire company on that hackathon? Do you even realize what you've done?!" Her voice cracked, full of disappointment. She’d always believed the family business was sacred—nothing could be allowed to threaten it. The company had been in their family for years, and now, it felt like everything was slipping through her fingers. The weight of the situation was almost unbearable.Ethan, trying to hold it together, stammered, “Mom, you don’t get it. Charles has dirt on me. If I didn’t accept his challenge, I would’ve ended up behind bars. I didn’t want this to happen!”Sophia, Ethan’s younger sister, jumped in with an eye-roll that screamed, “I can’t believe this.” Her voice was sharp, filled with disbelief. “You’re seriously stupid, Ethan.

    "Tell me now! What did I ever do to you? Why did you try to kill me?" Charles gritted his teeth, his fingers digging into Ethan’s neck, squeezing tighter with each passing second.Ethan struggled to breathe, his face turning a shade of purple. His hands clawed at Charles’s wrists, but Charles wasn’t letting go. "Tell me!" Charles demanded, his voice full of fury.Ethan’s eyes bulged as he gasped for air. "Sophia, what did he do?" Sophia’s voice trembled as she asked, her body shaking with fear. She stepped forward, panic flooding her face. "What has he done? Why is this happening? What is going on? Is this all his fault?"With a deep, labored breath, Ethan finally managed to speak. "Yes, I tried to kill him!" His voice was strained, hoarse from the lack of air. "I tried to kill him because he’s always in the way. He ruins everything we plan. I couldn’t stand it anymore. Nobody else was doing anything, so I took matters into my own hands."Charles’s grip tightened instinctively, his an

    “Wake him up!” The shout was barely audible, muffled by the fog in Charles’ head. He tried to blink but couldn’t make sense of anything. All he could feel was the tight ropes around his wrists and the discomfort of the hard chair pressing against his back.He was completely blindfolded, unable to see a thing.Then, in a sudden motion, the blindfold was ripped away. Charles squinted against the harsh light, his eyes struggling to adjust. He looked around the room, but nothing about the place seemed familiar. It looked like a dilapidated, forgotten part of the world. Old walls were covered in grime, shattered windows let in streaks of cold, and the air smelled... well, it smelled terrible. Urine, mold, and something he couldn’t quite place—none of it was pleasant. He’d been dumped in an abandoned house, and that much was clear.His vision cleared up just a little, and that’s when he saw them. Six, guys. All standing in front of him. All wearing sneers could stop a train. They looked lik

    Charles was caught off guard when he received a call from Richard. He couldn’t believe it. He never thought Richard would call him, let alone ask to discuss business. The last time they spoke, their relationship was rocky at best. But now, here was Richard, on the phone, asking to meet.“What kind of business are we talking about?” Charles asked, his voice laced with curiosity but also skepticism. He wasn’t sure if Richard was trying to pull some trick on him or if it was legitimate.Richard’s voice came through the line, full of urgency. “It’s about my company. I know you might be doubting my intentions, but I wouldn’t be calling if things weren’t desperate.”Charles was silent for a moment, wondering if he should even entertain this conversation. Richard hadn’t exactly been friendly in the past, but the word “desperate” caught his attention. “Alright, I’ll text you my address,” Charles said, unable to help but wonder what kind of trouble Richard had gotten himself into.“Thanks,” Ri
