Chapter 31
Though the birthday party on the yacht was a private one, and public reporters weren't allowed on there. There are still some photos and professional videos taken at the birthday party.This was done by Kennedy Goodwin to avoid any possible scandal at his daughter's birthday party from going public. Still, photos of Sonia and Jamie dancing caused quite a buzz on the internet. After all, the daughter of Wablo Corporation’s CEO is known as the most beautiful woman in Hollywood University. As for Jamie, the rumor about the Ashford subordinate picking him to be his stand-in at the birthday party was also causing quite the stir, especially since Jamie's identity as a scholarship student of HU was also spreading.Thus, people who showed interest in anything that had the Ashford name labeled on it, believe that the Ashford subordinate was merely favoring Jamie due to his perfect academic records.Despite being labeled as a mere stand-in for the Ashford subordinate who really mattered, the
Chapter 32
Billy Carson has always been Jamie's best friend since they went to high school together. At that time, Bernard was treating Jamie with a lesser bit of hostility and thus had casually allowed him to attend the same school as Nathan, Jonathan, and Stacy.Back then, Jamie was already used to the bullying he's been facing at the hands of the Reynold brothers. Nathan and Jonathan had managed to form a group of underlings with the other high schoolers, banding together to bully Jamie just two days after he began his high school classes.Although Stacy was just as biased against Jamie as her older brothers, she quickly warmed up to Jamie and Elizabeth back then, acknowledging them as her stepmother and stepbrother. But since she was younger than her brothers and was still in middle school, she really couldn't protect Jamie.At that high school, Jamie quickly became an outcast thanks to the Reynold brothers, who not only physically and emotionally bullied him with the help of the group of

With a frown, she dialed Sonia's phone number three more times, but by the second time, her phone was switched off. “That's weird. Maybe I'll try texting her.”Billy sighed. “Maybe just meet up with her.”Stacy shook her head. “I can't do that if I don't even know where she is right now. Her phone was just switched off. Could it be possible that she's in some kind of trouble?”Billy is a very intelligent man. “I think she might be grounded by her dad, and I suspect that Tyson is with her right now. After the humiliation he suffered because of Jamie, he must be trying to assert his dominance or something.”Stacy was a bit confused by Billy's words. “I think you need to elaborate on this.”Billy chuckled as he could see Stacy puffing up her cute cheeks - something she did whenever she was confused or a bit pissed. He couldn't stop staring at the cute lady, her face and dainty body accentuated by the light gleaming from the glass window behind her.Stacy got a bit offended as Billy was
Chapter 34
With Billy already on alcohol before Stacy showed up, the lady decided to take them both to Momentum Nightclub in her car.They arrived there only to find a bunch of students huddled around the entrance of the club building.Billy frowned at the sight. “What's going on here? Why aren't they letting anybody in?”Stacy shrugged her shoulders. “I don't know. We should go check it out ourselves.”The two got off and asked the students there, quickly learning that Momentuum Nightclub had been closed for days now. The worst part was that no reason was given and there was no update on the club's website either.The doors of the club were shut tightly which further confirmed that none of these students were fooling around. Stacy and Billy were about to give up when they spotted a familiar face. To be specific, the car was familiar to Stacy.“Hold on, isn't that Jonathan's car?”Billy followed Stacy's direction, finding the two Reynold brothers getting out of the car with an unpleasant expres

Watching everything happening, Stacy and Billy were now convinced that this group of three villains must have had something to do with Jamie's disappearance.Here, it would have been better if they had exercised some patience. They should have waited and listened to the entire conversation before deciding on the next course of action.If the two had shown some patience, they would have learned, sooner or later, that Tyson, Nathan, and Jonathan were truly only discussing how to make Jamie pay, and had not actually done anything to him.But Billy was already in an impulsive mood, heightened by his slightly drunken state. As for Stacy, she wasn't a schemer, and her naive mind had also concluded that her brothers were in cahoots with Tyson and that the three were responsible for Jamie going missing.As a result, Billy lurched from his seat with anger. “That's it! I'm gonna make those assholes tell me where they've hidden my best friend!”As Billy was about to rush out, Stacy quickly stop
Chapter 36
The two bodyguards who were distracted by Stacy earlier had returned to find an intruder in their boss's room.Tyson glared at the. “You useless lump of bodies! Why the fuck did you leave your posts without my permission?!”The two bodyguards were worried they would be punished, so they quickly fell to their knees to give their boss an explanation. They told him that it was a young woman who distracted them.Feeling worried that these bodyguards had done something to her, Billy glared at them. “What did you two do to Stacy?!”Hearing their little sister's name, the Reynold brothers became worried.“Wait, Stacy?! You brought Stacy here with you?!”“Hey, did you two touch my little sister?”The two bodyguards quickly confirmed that they couldn't even catch up to the first lady; she was simply too fast for them.Jonathan sighed before hurrying over to Billy. He raised his leg and stamped the sole of his shoe on top of his chest. “You bastard, you made my sister act as bait?! If these tw

Jonathan shook her older brother with a wide smile. “Holy shit, bro! He paid me half a million dollars! What the fuck?! Dad only ever gave us no more than $100,000 per month!”Nathan, on the other hand, glared at the empty space where Tyrone had been standing a moment ago. “Yeah, but I doubt he respects us. He sees us as his lackeys.”The older Reynold brothers didn't like this. Unlike his little brother, he was smart enough to know that this kind of treatment won't create a long-lasting impression on the relationship he's trying to build with Tyson.“We need to be careful with how we approach that guy in the future. Otherwise, he'll never see us as equals.”Jonathan, who was all brawn and no brains, rolled his eyes. “As long as I'm getting something like this, I don't really mind.”Nathan glared at his little brother before backhanding him across the chest. In the end, it was he who felt the pain on his hand, while Jonathan barely reacted to the hit.“Fuck! My hand. Goddammit, littl
Chapter 38
The warehouse was quiet as the thugs huddled behind Billy, eyes trained on the laptop screen.“Have you gotten the boy's location yet?”Billy suddenly slapped his hands on the desk. “Enough!”He lurched out of his seat with anger, displaying a weak demeanor as he was still severely injured, barely making it through on painkillers that would soon wear off. “Can you, please, tell your boss that I'm gonna need more time to find Jamie. I've been trying to locate him before I was brought here, and none of it worked.”The thugs were ruthless, and their boss was even more so. He rushed over and slapped Billy with a fist rather than a palm, sending the boy with the glasses falling straight to the ground, almost hitting his head on the concrete.“Listen here, slave, if you prove yourself useless to the task that Mr. Tyson has assigned you, the only other way out for your sorry ass….is death.”Billy was so tired and in so much pain. It's been days since he was brought here to be beaten up and

“Kill everyone who is not Mr. Billy Carson. Leave the boss to me for further interrogation.”The rest also pulled out guns and daggers. “Yes, Ma'am!”The leader of the thugs rushed backward with great fear on his face, stumbling a couple of feet before gathering a bit of composure. “W….Who are you?! What the fuck do you want?! Do you have any idea who you're messing with?!”He glanced at the now armless man to find him dead due to excessive blood loss. He had what these newcomers had done before even showing their faces, nor did he have any idea how they did it.A sharp dagger was thrown with such inhuman strength that it cut right through the arms of a muscular grown man, and then pinned both arms to the wall. The precision it took to achieve such a feat was also very abnormal.The gorgeous, tall young woman, who seems to be the leader of this small group of newcomers, stared at the boss with very little emotion on her face. “Your doom. To rescue Mr. Billy Carson. Yes, and I'm far f
Chapter 40
Within one minute, all the gang members were dead, except the leader. The previously arrogant man was now standing on shaky legs as he stared at the five unknown men and women. “W….Who are you guys? What the hell are you guys?!”His erratic mood made absolute sense, as he had just witnessed the most insane shooting skill, something he could have only conceptualised in his imagination.These people were some kind of abnormality. He was certain of that.The gorgeous young woman took slow steps towards the leader of the thugs, as she answered his question. “You don't have the right to know who we are. If you ever discover the afterlife, I hope you can remember that you died because you messed with the wrong people.”The shaking thug leader was incredibly terrified of these people. Looking at the five attractive faces, he could sense an unnerving calmness in their bodies. Clearly, this wasn't the first time they've done something like this. But more importantly, their calm state was pr
