Richard Morgan boards a bus to the Star Royal Hotel where he works as a waiter there.
Today was a special day because it was this day two years ago that Jane Andrew agreed to be his girlfriend.After work today he planned on going on a date with her.
Filled with joy all over his face,Richard went into the Star Royal restaurant where he works.
As he put on his black trousers and black shirt, the dress code for his work,he waited to be called upon by the customers in need of his service.
Just then,a young man and a girl walked into the restaurant.The man was wearing a Gucci shirt,a Rolex watch,and a Benz key fold hanging on his waist.The woman was dressed in a short red gown that revealed her curvaceous shape.The two clung to each other and flirted with each other like they were a couple.
“Jane?” Richard could not believe him and he hastily ran to them.
Earlier that day,Jane had told him that she was going to see her aunt who just gave birth but she would return back later in the day.
She was startled,her expression changed.She subconsciously wanted to break free from the youngman when she heard Richard's voice,but the youngman was holding her tightly.
“What are you afraid of? Do you still want to be with that broke guy?”The young man beside her asked sternly.
Jane's eyes flickered for a moment.She was not as panicked as before.But she was filled with rage.
“Well now that you have found out,I guess it's time to let you know,Richard,” said the youngman holding Jane, “Your girlfriend is dating me now”.
He was Richard's classmate,Dominic Prescott. Unlike Richard,he was a rich kid.
Richard staggered back as his face was grave when he heard Dominic's words.Then,ignoring Dominic,he pulled Jane over. “ Come home with me,Jane.I promise to work harder to do anything you want me to do for you.
“Don't touch me!” Jane pushed Richard's hand away. Why should I go with you?Can you afford to buy the phones and handbags that I like? Everytime I ask you to get me a new item you always say I should manage the old ones I have.How long will I keep managing them?”
“Maya,I may be broke now,but I will work harder.” Richard said convincingly.
“Work harder?You are an orphan with no money or background.You can't achieve anything the level of wealth that Dominic has just by being a waiter in this restaurant” Jane sneered.
‘Wake up,Richard.Jane won't go with you.Do you want her to become a waiter with you?Dominic taunted him.
“I have long wanted to tell you that you don't deserve me because you can't afford to take care of my needs.We are done,Richard.” Jane said in an icy voice.Then she turned to look at Dominic with a fond smile and hold him by his hands.
“A broke guy like you doesn't deserve love you know? Dominic shot a disdainful look at Richard as he walked Jane to the reserved table he had made for them.
Richard looked at both of them while his heart was aching as Jane left.
He immediately noticed as all eyes around stared at him.Those around had been watching the scene as it unfolds and was wondering why a waiter like him would be interested in such a beautiful lady.
Richard felt angry,painful,indignant yet helpless.He was humiliated in front of the people there at the restaurant.
Richard lowered his head in shame because he had been publicly humiliated.
Richard and Jane met in college.They had been together since 100 level of resumption.She was innocent back then,but now,she had betrayed him and chose Dominic.
Richard did not beg or persuade Jane to stay because he was broke,Jane had repeatedly insulted him for the past two years.Nevertheless,Richard had never said a thing.All he could do was work harder and make more money to support her.However,she cheated on him by hooking up with the rich kid.
“You have humiliated me today.One day,I will make you realize that it is you who don't deserve me,” Richard said to himself with a gleam in his eyes.
Richard angrily left the restaurant,his Charles who was also working with him as a waiter chased after him to ensure he was safe.
Charles quickly catches up with him.Charles who was not just his friend but also his room mate said “You have to pull yourself together and move on.I told you a long term ago that Jane doesn't belong to our world.She is beautiful,hot and have good shape.I knew at first glance that she wasn't serious with the relationship”
“You have nothing to lose, just get another girl as a replacement for her.They are many girls out there you shouldn't be tied down by one.”
“The thing is I genuinely love her and I'm only interested in her,” Richard said.
“But she has left you for someone else so you should move on and let's go back to work if not you will lose both Jane and your work” Charles replied.
“I will be heading back home,you can return to work as for me I'm done working” Richard stated.
Richard was only doing the part time work so that he could cater for the needs of Jane but since they have broken up there was no need for him working.
Charles returned back to work while Richard headed home.
As he was walking down the road thoughts of the confrontation he had with Jane filled his mind.
“How would she have done this to me after everything I did for her?” he wondered to himself.
Filled with thoughts about his breakup with Jane he didn't notice the black coloured Rolls-Royce coming towards him as he crossed the road and he was knocked down by the car.

Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty-Four
Richard made his way down the hallway toward Miss Lilian’s office, each step echoing in the quiet of the school. His thoughts raced. Why had she asked to speak with him? There was no way it was about the rumors; Miss Lilian was far too professional for that. He had no idea what she wanted to discuss, but he hoped it wasn’t anything too complicated or troublesome.He reached the door of her office and paused, taking a deep breath. The door was slightly ajar, and he could hear the soft rustling of papers inside. He knocked lightly before pushing it open, stepping inside.Miss Lilian looked up from her desk, her eyes sharp as ever. She was seated behind her desk, her usual calm and composed demeanor intact. When her gaze met Richard’s, her expression softened, just for a moment.“Richard,” she said, her voice warm but professional. “Please, come in. Take a seat.”Richard nodded, stepping inside and closing the door behind him. He sat down across from her, feeling the weight of her gaze o
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty-Three
The bell rang, signaling the end of the day’s lessons, but Richard couldn’t shake the feeling that his return to school would be anything but normal. As students filed out of the classroom, chattering and laughing, the murmur of gossip began to rise. Richard could hear snippets of whispered conversation behind him as he gathered his things and prepared to leave.“Did you see that? Miss Lilian called Richard to stay behind,” one voice whispered.“Do you think they’re... you know... together?” another voice speculated, low but not low enough to avoid Richard’s ears.Richard sighed inwardly, his shoulders tensing. The last thing he needed right now was to be the subject of more gossip. His life was already complicated enough, what with his powers, his training with Reed, the looming exams, and the looming threat of the Knight Consortium. And now, of course, his sudden return to school had become the latest topic of speculation.Miss Lilian, of all people, had always been a figure of auth
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty-Two
The crisp morning air felt oddly refreshing as Richard walked toward the school gates. The weight of the previous weeks hung heavy on his shoulders, but there was a strange sense of normalcy to the school grounds that made him feel momentarily grounded. He hadn't been back here in a while. The exams loomed large, but for now, everything felt suspended in time. He couldn't shake the feeling that he was walking into a new phase of his life—one that was far more complicated than anything he'd experienced before.He hadn’t been to school in weeks, but now he had no choice. The school was more than just a place for education; it was where his life had begun to intertwine with others, including his friends. They had all witnessed the strange, turbulent journey he'd gone through, but as the world around him started to feel more controlled, he knew he had to return. For his own sake. For their sake.As Richard entered the school courtyard, the usual buzz of chatter filled the air. Students hu
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty-One
Just as Richard began to settle into the reality of his new circumstances, the sharp sound of a letter being slid under the door interrupted the moment. Reed turned, moving with his usual calm composure, and picked up the folded parchment from the floor. As he unfolded it, his brow furrowed slightly.“Hmm,” he muttered, reading the contents aloud. “It seems we have other matters to attend to, Richard. You’ve received word from the school.”Amelia glanced at Richard, a flash of concern crossing her features. “The school? What about it?”Reed looked up, his expression becoming slightly more serious. “It seems that the exam timetable has been released. Your academic obligations are still in play. According to the letter, the exams are scheduled to begin in a matter of days. You’ll need to return to class tomorrow.”Richard blinked, his mind struggling to shift gears. “Exams? But... I’m not ready. I can barely focus on anything right now. How can I possibly go back to class after everythi
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty
The air in Reed’s house was heavy with tension as Richard slowly regained consciousness. His body felt as though it had been hit by a storm—aching, drained, yet filled with a strange, almost electric energy. The world around him seemed blurry at first, but gradually, shapes and colors began to come into focus. He blinked against the sudden onslaught of light, and his senses started to return to him. The scent of herbal concoctions and faint incense wafted in the air, grounding him back in the familiar surroundings of Reed’s study.He tried to lift his hand but found it stiff, his limbs slow to respond. It was as though he was awakening from a long, disorienting sleep. The events of the previous days came crashing back into his mind—the battle, the fight with Sebastian, and, of course, the painful decision to take the Xan Ling herb.As his eyes adjusted to the light, he saw Amelia sitting beside him, her face pale with exhaustion but filled with a glowing sense of relief. She was holdi
Chapter Three Hundred and Seventy-Nine
Amelia stood by Richard’s side, torn between her desperate desire to save him and the fear of what might happen. She had seen the herb’s power firsthand, how it had healed Richard’s injuries so quickly, but she had also seen its toll on him—how it had made him weaker, more vulnerable. Would he even survive this?Richard’s breathing was shallow, his body tense. His lips parted as though he was trying to speak, but nothing came out. His eyelids fluttered, struggling to stay open.“Richard,” Amelia whispered, squeezing his hand. “Please, stay with me.”Reed had already prepared the extract, but the hesitation in his eyes was clear. It was not just about the herb anymore—it was about what it would cost Richard to drink it. The very thing that had kept him alive could also be the thing that changed him forever.Amelia looked at Reed, her voice filled with both desperation and determination. “Please, Reed... you have to help him. We have no other choice.”Richard’s eyes finally opened, his
