Loud music filled the room as students of Crestmont danced and drank, the yearly party crowning that year's "King of Campus" — an award that, unofficially, always went to whoever wore their wealth the loudest. School staff monitored the event closely, careful to keep it within the polished standards Crestmont prided itself on.Daniel had wanted to sit it out. He didn't feel welcome there, not really — not yet. But Lily had reminded him how much politics mattered in the life he'd stepped into, and that he needed to start learning the game here, in a ballroom full of teenagers, before he ever walked into a boardroom.So he sat alone at the bar, turning a glass of rosé slowly between his fingers, watching the room without quite being part of it.Students drifted past in twos and threes, voices dropping only slightly. "Isn't that the unclaimed dog?""Where did he get the money for that outfit?""Did he seriously just order the premium rosé?"He wore a sleek white outfit, casual in cut but

He knew better than to let his newfound wealth twist him into someone ugly. But one thing had settled in him, quiet and certain as stone: he would get back at every single person who had ever made trash of him.The classroom buzzed the moment he stepped through the door. Whispers rippled from desk to desk, no one bothering to lower their voices, as if he was deaf. They'd all heard about the expulsion, the hours spent in a holding cell, the humiliation of it. News like that didn't need an official announcement. It just needed one mouth and twenty minutes.He took his seat and pulled out his notebook, keeping his eyes down, though he could feel the stares crawling over him like insects.Charlie approached with his usual swagger, the kind that came from years of never once being told no. He dropped into the seat beside Daniel's desk like he owned it, like he owned everything, the way boys like Charlie always assumed they did."Who would've believed it," Charlie said, loud enough for th

"Here you go, Mr. Raines," Lily said, setting a leather folder of documents on the table before him, a sleek black card resting on top like an afterthought that cost more than most people's houses. "The handover papers have been prepared. All you need to do is sign."Daniel — no, Adrian, he supposed, though the name still felt like a coat two sizes too big — stared at the stack in front of him. His own name was printed across the top page in a careful, official font, as if the universe had decided to make his new identity feel real through paperwork alone."Your father is tired," Lily continued, her voice gentler now. "Now that his son has been found, he would like to rest."Daniel swallowed. He hadn't even signed anything yet and already the weight of it pressed down on his shoulders."You'll be inheriting the empire," Lily said, as if she were reading off a grocery list rather than reshaping the entire trajectory of his life. "A trillion-dollar fortune. Companies spanning every cont

Daniel sat with a teacup trembling faintly in his hands, not from its fragility but his own. He'd never felt so tense in his life. Wealth like this didn't just surround a person — it pressed in on them, made the air feel thicker, made every breath feel like it needed permission.He didn't need anyone to tell him who Robert Raines was. Everyone in America, and beyond, knew that name. Fifty trillion dollars. A number so large it stopped being a number and became a kind of myth, the second-richest man on the planet trailing behind at a mere one trillion. Generational wealth so vast it broke calculators, broke comprehension, broke the part of Daniel's brain that tried to make sense of anything anymore today.He lifted the teacup and drank, mostly to give his hands something to do.The taste bloomed across his tongue, warm and faintly floral, and something in his chest loosened before he could stop it. His shoulders dropped. The tightness behind his ribs eased like a held breath finally re

The entire police department was left shocked and confused as the rich and beautiful Lily Foster was bowing to a nobody like Daniel. Even Daniel himself had the same thought in his mind. He had no idea who could be happening, but then he recalled the phone call he had received earlier and realized the woman's voice was the same as the one who spoke to him on the phone. Could it be possible that Lily Foster had really called him?“Well, what the hell are you standing around for?” She yelled, scaring even Daniel as her voice suddenly sounded sharp. “I want him out of there in the next second!”“Y--yes ma'am!” No one could go against her words unless they wanted to lose their jobs. Within the next second, Daniel was released from the cell. Still surprised, he just stood still as Lily's gaze swept over his profile. “Mr Raines, I promise to sort everything out.”Daniel thought he hadn't heard her right. “Mr… Raines?” Surely that was a mistake. “Listen miss, I think you have me confuse

“Young master Daniel! I know you must be surprised, and I promise I will explain everything to you. But I am so grateful that after all these years, you have finally found your way back to us.” The excitement in her voice was unmasked. Unfortunately for her, Daniel didn't share in her excitement. “Who the hell is this? Do you think you're funny? Calling me and wasting my time with this nonsense.” He spat angrily, immediately blaming himself for answering the call. “I am in no mood for whatever you're doing. Don't you ever call this number again!”He sighed frustratingly, his life was falling apart and yet someone thought it would be funny to prank him. His heart started beating in an unusual rhythm and the tears he was so determined not to shed was starting to blur his vision. Just then, the sound of his ring tone filled his ears again. “What the fuck did I just say?!” he answered without checking the caller.He only paused after hearing the angry voice of his landlord on the other

"Lucas! Lucas!! You'll never guess what doctor Julie told me!""Okay." He replied casually and went back to the show he was watching."You're supposed to guess." She hit him on the chest."But you said I'll never guess what it is.""You were supposed to be more interested, darn it!""Right sorry. What did she say?""I'm not telling you anymore." She pouted and folded her arms."Aw come on, tell me.""No.""Come on, okay I'm sorry.""No. I'm not telling you. You'll have to wait nine months to see for yourself."She watched eagerly as his face went from confusion to excitement while he did the math. "Nine months- wait, you're pregnant?!""Yes!""Oh my goodness, that's wonderful.""I know.""Congratulations to us!""Yeah! I'm gonna be a mom… again.""Come on, let's call the guys so we can celebrate."★★★"Hey sis,""Peter?" Ivy's eyes widened as she saw her brother after all these months."Long time no see huh?""Oh come here." She pulled him in for a hug. "How've you been?""Good, I see

"Ivy, there's something important I would like to talk to you about.""Okay, go on.""I need to ask you a favor.""Anything honey.""Okay. I want you to be my next of kin.""What?""You know, in case anything bad happens to me-""No, zip it!""What? why?""Why the hell are you sounding like that?""Sounding like what?""Nothing bad is going to happen to you. Grover already did his worst and he failed terribly. The court has officially given you full rights over your parents fortune again, so why the hell would you talk like this?""I don't know. I just can't help but feel that Grover hasn't done his worst.""Well let him, we're going to be fine. Lucas , we have come a long way. Just look at all the nemesis you've had over the years . Smelly Andreas, yellow diamond guy, your COO- turned nemesis- turned best friend, my mother… and yet, none of them could defeat you.He's just a butler, he can't do anything. All that power he had was when he was in control of your wealth, he doesn't hav

"So, what are you planning on doing about the super mall? I mean, you can't just leave it vacant forever."Ivy was right, he hadn't really had the time to worry about it due to all the recent events that had been happening in his life. "You're right. What do you think we should do?" He threw the question back at her."I don't know. But for starters, I think you should probably employ some staff there. At least get some people to make you money.""I guess you're right. Do you have anyone in mind?""Um no, I actually don't. But I'm sure if you let your staff at the company know, they could make some recommendations.""That's true, I almost forgot I had a company.""Hehe, that's what happens when you're too rich." The couple laughed at her joke, forgetting their troubles for a brief moment. Moments like this.His life would be unbearable if it wasn't for moments like this. The time where they would just forget about their worries, times when they would pretend like their world was okay

Mia stretched as she stirred from her nap. She slowly sat up, yawning slightly."Did you enjoy your nap?"She smiled as she noticed detective Jones. "Yes, I did." She replied energetically, nodding her head."Good to know." He barely knew her but detective Jones found that he was already getting attached to her. Everything about her was utterly cute, her tiny voice, the way she smiled, the way she walked and even the way she snored lightly in her sleep.She folded her legs on the couch and hugged them to close her chest. "Now I'm hungry." She pouted as she rested her head on her knees.He laughed at her comment as he moved to sit next to her. "Well what do you want to eat?""I don't know, can we order pizza?""Sure."When the pizza finally arrived, she accepted it eagerly and rushed to the living room to show it to him. "Pizza's here.""Great." She set the pizza on the center table as he went to get drinks from the kitchen."How's master Lucas doing?" She asked with her mouth half ful

"What?!!" Grover barked at a young man who immediately dropped to his knees."I…I am truly sorry sir. They actually believed me at first, but then… uh…" The man stammered, unable to speak calmly."Will you quit stuttering and tell me what happened?!" The young man quavered at the sound of his voice."I'll tell you what happened." Festus intervened. "Milo! That son of a bitch double crossed us." He spat out, his face scrunched up in displeasure."Milo? Is he unaware that his wife works with us?""Of course not!. Haven't we all been in on this from the very begining?""How dare that nobody try to double cross me?""We have to teach him a lesson.""Of course we will. But first, you." He turned to the young man who was still on his knees."B… but s.. sir… I… I'm innocent.""Are you now? I gave you a simple task. Get the people to see the bad side of him, I even told you what to say… and yet you failed woefully. Can you see now that you deserve to be punished?""Please sir, I didn't do any

Haven't we all been in on this from the very beginning?""How dare that nobody try to double cross me?""We have to teach him a lesson."Detective Jones saw his opponent draw a weapon but he was too focused on the little lady in front of him to do anything about it. He felt the bullet pierce through his stomach and he clutched the wound, trying to minimize the bleeding. It wasn't the first time he would be getting shot but somehow, the pain was different this time around, prob

Tomas was patiently awaiting the arrival of his girlfriend, since they had made an agreement to meet up at night. Not more than thirty minutes later, she walked into the hotel room. "I have been calling you, why did you refuse to answer?" He questioned as she walked inside."I'm so sorry babe, I forgot to charge my phone and I didn't even remember to take my power bank when I left home. You know I would never intentionally ignores your calls. "Okay. Well, I'm sure you know the reason why I asked us to meet up?" "Of course." The couple had decided that they would come up with a plan together that would help Tomas get back in good terms with the DnD, and even though she had the whole day to think, Maria was not able to come up with any idea. "Great. I really can't thank you enough for agreeing to help me om this." He smiled and took her hands in his. "It warms my heart to see that you still care deeply for me even after what happened.""You don't have to thank me, you are my future

Since they saw the news posted about Dominic and the Mafia boss about two hours ago, they– mostly Ciara— had been anxious to hear an update. She was pacing around her office, mumbling to herself except for the occasional outbursts. "Ugh! Why won't he call me?" And throwing out some curse words as well. "So, new update, your husband is gay." Maria said, resting on the wall by the entrance. "Touching story for the kids.""What do you want, Maria? I'm not in the mood for your drama right now." She said without paying her much attention. "Of course I understand. No one would hear such news about a man she's married to and be calm. You know gram has seen it as well. So your little husband is the least of your worries.""What did she say about it?""I believe you're not crippled, so what's stopping you from going to her office to ask her by yourself?""Well if you're not going to help, then just get out of my office.""Rude, someone's letting her new position get in her head. What gives

"So? Even with the job, do you think you can somehow magically make a new life for yourself in three days?? I would really love to see you try.""Really? Challenge accepted gram. And once my wife and I manage to create a new, and more comfortable life for ourselves in three days, you will finally give her that company car that you have been planning on giving to George instead."When Dominic said that, she looked a bit shocked because she thought her plans were secret. Right from the onset, gram Fallon had wanted to give the director position to George, and it was no secret to the family. If it wasn't for his intervention, his wife would have been cheated just like that. Now what the Fallon family didn't know was that along with the huge office and the significant increase in the monthly pay, the director position also came with a brand new luxury car. Even Dominic was unaware of that fact until he heard George discussing it with gram Fallon. Since then, he had been thinking of a
