Chapter - 11 "You... Where did you get that from?" Georgie's uncle, the Deputy Supriedentent asked, pointing at the card in Mathew's hands. His face looked anxious, staring at the card. "This…”Mathew did not know how to answer it. Robert, his newly found father did not say anything about the card. All he knew that this card could help him pay off the settlement money. ‘But why does he care so much about it? Does he know something that I don’t? This got Mathew to ponder. "... You want me to pay, don't you? I am willing to do it," Mathew tried to steer the conversation away from the card, "But, do you take payments by card? I am sure with how invested you are in such transactions, you must be carrying the machine to swipe it." Mathew whispered the last part, but the Deputy Supriedentent could still hear him. "You..." The Deputy Supriedentent was angry, but he was not the rash type. So, he could only hold back for now. At a glance, the Deputy Supriedentent could tell that the card w

Chapter - 12'Did you hear the rumour? Georgie was slapped.''Hear? I was there to see it. His uncle was the one who slapped him.''But it was all because of Mathew.''Mathew? Why him?''Don't know... But it was something because of a card.''Card?'After the incident with Georgie and his uncle in the morning, Mathew could hear such whispers wherever he went. There were all sorts of stories floating around about him. How he single handedly took care of the police officers, to how he threw money at Georgie and his uncle's face. Most of them were exaggerations, but there was still some degree of truth in them.No matter what and how? Mathew was indeed able to hold back his nerve in front of Georgie and the Deputy Suprediendent and even give it back to a certain degree.He was still unsure if the way he reacted in the morning was right or not? But he felt somewhat content in his heart. For the first time in his life, Mathew did not take it lying down and took a stand for himself. Not for

Chapter - 13Mathew had saved the girl. She was about to fall straight on her face, but Mathew was quick to react. His hand instinctively reached out as he grabbed the girl tight. But something was odd. The sensation in his hands was just too good. Just too soft..."It's soft..." Mathew murmured to himself as he squeezed his palms, trying to feel it even more."Umm..." But just as he did, the girl in his arms cried out in a muffled voice."Huh..." Suddenly Mathew realised what it was. His eyes grew wide open and sweat formed on his forehead. He looked around and found that phones were out already, and everyone was clicking their photos non-stop.Mathew slowly looked down at his hand only to find the girl glaring at him. She was shooting lasers from her eyes."Shit..." As soon as their eyes met, Mathew could not help but curse. The situation was already bad enough, but why did it have to be this girl? It would have been bad with any other girl, but it was going to be a nightmare with A

Chapter - 14"Huh..." Mathew sighed as he stood in the courtyard of a small house, looking at the door with mixed emotions. If it was earlier, he would have just walked in without any reservations. But now Mathew was hesitant. He was hesitant to go inside and face the people he had regarded as his parents all his life till now. He was afraid that all that the middle-aged man claiming to be his father said would be true."Young master..." Alfred, who has been standing behind Mathew all this time, called for him from behind, "If you are not ready, we can always come again later.""No... It's alright," Mathew took a deep breath and shook his head, "I need to know the truth." And with that, Mathew finally took a step forward towards the truth.~ ~ ~ ~ ~"Mom... Dad..." Mathew walked into the room and found his parents sitting on the sofa with weary looks on their faces. They looked exhausted."Matt!" Hearing his voice, both of the opened their eyes and stood up together. They took a step

Chapter - 15"Young Master... About meeting the lord," As Alfred drove Mathew back home, he suddenly spoke.Earlier this afternoon, Alfred called Mathew after the classes ended to inform him that the lord wanted to meet him. But Mathew decided to push the conversation for a while and meet Martha and Tom instead.But now that he had met them and confirmed everything, Alfred wanted to remind Mathew about the meeting."It's fine... We are already going home. I will talk to my father face-to-face," Mathew again tried to brush off the topic."But...""Why do you think my mother abandoned me?" Mathew interrupted Alfred and asked, "Was she so disgusted by me that she would rather leave than spend a day with me?""That's a totally absurd thing to say, young master. Young master is the nicest and most resp...""Leave it... I don't want to hear it, " Mathew stopped Alfred from praising him, " Wake me up when we reach home," saying so, Mathew closed his eyes, leaving no room for any more convers

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

Chapter - 20"Partly?" With her brows raised, Diana looked at Mathew curiously. 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
