"Mr. Dylan, are you comfortable? Do you want anything?" Clara asked ardently.

Dylan just threw a glance at her and ignored her like there was no one there. Clara felt embarrassed, despite everything she has done to make sure he gets into the good books of Dylan, it just isn't working.

A big shot like Dylan was worth consideration and currying favor from him was her target.

"Sir, you know this Bank might cost tens of billions and it can be---"

"I know!" Dylan interrupted with a contempt look.

'I was just trying to keep a conversation with you, that's all. You don't have to be rude. You're not even the most wealthy man in the city. No one knows Dylan, so why does he have to behave like the whole world is at his feet. Gosh, it's disgusting and annoying!' Clara rumbled in her mind.

If Dylan knew what was going on in her head now, he might have intensify it just to tell what being rude is.

Subsequently, the elevator lurched to a stop and Miss Julian alongside Scott Hudson walked out of the elevator with two bodyguards in black expensive suits.

'It's Scott Hudson' One of the security guards whispered.

'Wow, I haven't seen him since I started working as a receptionist,'

'He's a raregem, he doesn't even show up like this all the time'

'It must be because of some important matter, I'm sure of that'

"....." Different opinions and suggestions swept through.

'Mr. Scott came to see Dylan? Dylan must be a big shot. Oh my goodness, what have I done to myself.' Remorse plastered Clara's face.

As they walked straight to Dylan, the security guards and all the staff stood up and bowed respectfully to him as an act of royalty. The men remained motionless until he had walked down the hallway.

"Mr. Dylan?" He extended his hands and shook hands with him, "I am Mr. Scott Hudson."

'Is this the famous Scott Hudson of West Stone's City? Man is a legend' Dylan had to compose himself.

Then the thought occur to him that he just shook hands with the Mr. Scott Hudson. It could've been an achievement then and all his friends will definitely hear of it after.

A smile crawled over his face, "I am Dylan."

"Could you mind if we talk privately?" Scott requested.

"Sure!"

The elevator lurched to a stop at the 20th floor. Dylan couldn't help himself but smile at the opulent designs and decorations as they walked straight into an office.

It never occured to him that he will one day walk with Scott Hudson into his office at one of the biggest Banks in Stone's City.

"Could you give us a minute?" Scott told Julian as he paved the way for Dylan into his office. Nobody except the shareholders have entered Mr. Scott Hudson's office.

He practically own the 20th floor and that floor is off limits. That was the kind of fear He has induced on every staff that had work at Stone's City Bank.

Silence shadowed the room as Dylan and Mr. Scott Hudson sat across from each other, the tension palpable. The air was thick with anticipation as Scott leaned forward, his eyes locked intently on Dylan.

"So, Mr. Dylan," Scott began, he cleared his voice, "I must say, I'm impressed. You're a college student, and yet you're making an offer to buy our bank. That's...audacious, to say the least. But we came at a price of $22 Billion."

Dylan smiled calmly, his eyes never leaving Scott's face. "I'm just a guy who sees opportunities, Mr. Hudson. And I believe this bank has a lot of potential. So Yes, $22 Billion it is."

Scott's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "You're not even going to negotiate? We just threw out a number and you buy it?"

Dylan shrugged. "I've done my research, Mr. Hudson. I know what this bank is worth. And I'm willing to pay top dollar for it."

The room was silent for a moment, the only sound heard was the soft humming of the air conditioner. Then, Scott let out a low whistle.

"Well, I'll be damned," he said, a slow grin spreading across his face. "You're either the most confident person I've ever met, or you're completely insane."

Dylan chuckled. "Maybe a little bit of both, Mr. Hudson."

Scott leaned back in his chair, a look of admiration on his face. "You know, I think we're going to get along just fine, Mr. Dylan. Make a payment and Sign here, so we can make it official."

"Where do I pay?" Dylan asked and all that kept running through Scott's mind was how fast this deal was unfolding. He didn't even request to pay a 10% first, he just want to pay everything at once?

"You can pay here." Mr Scott turned the screen towards him and there were many options to paid with.

Instantly, the payment was successful and the way Scott looked at Dylan changed instantly. His eyes bulged out of his socket in utter astonishment.

'Only few have tens of billions in assets, talk alone in cash, and only an insane person would pay $22 Billion in just one fold, emptying their account to do a thing like that wasn't business wise, but this college student did that? Is he from those invincible family?'

Dylan glanced through the purchase agreement and all the shares purchase agreement, before finally signing for the handover.

Scott's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "You know, I have to ask...how does a college student come up with $22 billion?"

Dylan just smiled. "Let's just say I have my ways, Mr. Hudson."

'That's it... Suspicion confirmed, he's definitely from those secretly rich family, Heard they are not just rich! Wow!!'

As they exchanged contact information, Scott turned to Dylan with a grin. "You know, I think we're going to be great friends, Dylan. And please, call me Scott. We don't have to be too formal."

Dylan smiled back, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I'd like that, Scott. Let's stay in touch."

Scott called the head staff and the shareholders after the deal went through. And discussed the handover with them. "From now henceforth, Mr. Dylan Bradley is now the CEO and owner of Stone's City Bank."

The news of Dylan buying the Bank spread like wildfire through the whole Bank. Everyone were shocked and couldn't believe what happened. Some of the shareholders wants to meet with this Dylan boy.

Some of the female staff were glad that they have been a change of management since they couldn't stand the sexual harassment from most of the shareholders.

'The deal happened? And I have just insulted my Boss before now? What is he going to do me? How do I find a better job with a ruin reputation?' Clara's shoulder slumped as regrets crushed on her.

As Dylan emerged from the elevator, Clara prostrated herself before him, her face streaked with tears as she begged fervently,

"Please, don't fire me. Don't ruin my reputation please. I will do anything. Anything you say!"

    'Poverty is not a shame, but the lack of respect for oneself and others is.' Dylan pondered. 'You will do anything? Money indeed can buy respect.' Dylan chuckled coltishly. People say money doesn't buy happiness or respect, well, for Dylan, money have definitely paved the way of him. Respect and power were at his fingertips all because of the money had acquired. Dylan's expression remained impassive as he delivered the verdict, "Given your willingness to do anything, I've decided that you'll be taking on janitorial duties from this moment." With that, he turned on his heel and strode directly into Miss Julian's office, leaving Clara behind without a second glance. Clara was rooted to the spot, feeling humiliated. She never expected that Dylan was not tempted by her beauty, or he's just not the same with the former shareholders who understood what "I will do anything" means. "He asked me to become a janitor, Isn't this a demotion? But it was better than getting my image tarnishe

    The Ferrari halted and the guards came out of their Porsche car. As the men formed a protective circle around the Ferrari, their movements seemed choreographed, as if they had performed this ritual many times before. They did it exactly the way they did it before."Do they always do this?" Inquisitive Dylan asked. He hadn't experienced a life like this before and it seems a bit strange to him thinking they do it so much better than those Hollywood movies he had watch."Of course!" Scott giggled, "And I think you should buy some of them and you know... Some expensive cars to accentuate your status."'He is trying to say that I look shabby? Well, he's got a point.'"Yeah..." He forcefully chuckled, "I was actually thinking about that too.""I can get you one that matches your status. I have a car company too and we can talk about it."

Dylan spoke with a forceful smile, trying his possible best to withheld his anger.Tracy walked majestically towards him and the first thing she did was to insult him publicly. She did enjoy humiliating and ridiculing him even when he was still dating Ashley."Well, well, well, look what we have here," she sneered, her voice dripping with contempt. "If it isn't the lowlife of the century. How's it possible that someone as pathetic as you managed to set foot in a 10-star hotel?"Dylan's face twisted in anger, but Tracy continued to ridicule him. "Do you even know what a 10-star hotel is? It's a place where people with class come to relax, not some dingy place where losers like you hang out.""What the hell are you even doing here?"

And it will be extremely challenging for Barry to feed everyone there.It was all shock when Dylan confidently said he will treat the ten of them to a meal."What has gone over you Dylan? This is a 10 star hotel." Austin couldn't give his voice down anymore. This was beyond extreme and they might end up disgracing the Tripod.The humiliation they got in he anonymous message was enough.

Desmond released the thunderous punch at Barry, but was quickly intercepted by a hand that wrapped around Desmond's clenched fist preventing him from landing another blow on Barry's face.When Desmond hiked his head up, he was surprised to see Dylan using one hand to stop the punch that he aimed squarely at Barry's jaw.Everyone gasped as their eyes widened with shock and disbelief.

    Dylan couldn't really discern the obscurity behind the message he received. He thought back to everything that had happened since he got the system and saw there was no Betty before now.'So what does she imply? Or she wasn't the one that sent the message?' Dylan pondered in deep thoughts as he walked towards the taxi stand.He boarded one and headed towards Stone's City College. The more he tried to ignored the message on his phone, the more his mind drift back to the message.'Who really am I? What does she mean? Do I look mysterious?' Dylan couldn't connect the dot and until he struck him that he just healed a dying man, there was every right to look mysterious to them. 'Even Mr. Walter called me a miracle doctor, well...' Just as Dylan laid the thoughts to rest, his phone buzzed with another incoming text from the same unknown number. He opened it to find a message.Unknown number: [ Sorry for sounding mysterious earlier, it's me Betty. Thank you for saving my father's life, can'

She now sees Dylan as some kind of mysterious guy with deep secrets."Mister, I really want to thank you for saving my life. Anything you want, I'll do it for you. Anything at all, just name it." Mr. Walter requested politely."Mr. Walter, I didn't do anything actually, and I'm glad you're okay." Dylan didn't heal him because he needed his money. He practically has everything he wants with the help of his system. With everything that had happened, Dylan was now convinced that the system isn't just a money spending system, but something that can make him the most powerful being in the universe.'This system is definitely not limited! An infinite system indeed, if I can heal what else can it do. What are the incredible things it can

Actually, losing her father was practically the end for her as her stepmother and stepsister will make her life a living hell."Dad.... Can you hear me?"

Betty asked with a voice laced with concern."Yes," He answered, trying to catch his breath."Let's go to the hospital." The man spoke with a low voice like it was very hard to say those words.
