And what exactly do you mean by that?” Clara scoffed, snapping her fingers sharply in Wallace's face. “Do you have any idea what kind of connections my father has built? With a single flick of my fingers, I can get anything I want in this city.”“Enjoy it while it lasts,” Laura replied, her eyes flashing with quiet anger. “Because I don't think you'll be doing much snapping a few years from now.”She turned her back on Clara and looked at Wallace, who had quietly risen to his feet. He was scanning the surrounding streets, wondering if he should move to a different neighborhood just to find a patch of undisturbed nature. He needed pure, unpolluted Qi if he was ever going to break past his current predicament. “Wally,” Laura said softly, ignoring the bullies completely. “Make a wish. Tell me what you want, and I will grant it.”Aiden burst out laughing, stepping up beside his sister. “What are you, a genie? Why should he bother making a wish when he can’t even afford to buy a decent m

“And now, you have to pay for trespassing on someone else's estate…” The officer finally said dropping the bombshell as he focused on Clara's father. The man looked at him with his mouth agape. For a moment, no words came out. “How about I speak with the owner? I mean… we can negotiate?” He said as cold sweat began to form at the corner of his face. “And here's the bill to be paid within two weeks …” the man said as he showed him what was on his screen. Almost immediately, the man's eyes almost popped out of their socket. That was a whopping seven figures. How the hell was he supposed to gather that money under such notice?In fact, he couldn't even afford it even in ten years to come! He hasn't even had the status yet!Only then did the man grab the cop’s hands as he fell on his knees. “Please? Huh? Let me meet the owner just once. I'm about to get ruined!” He almost screamed. Just when he thought that his plans of making his son take the fall on his behalf was about to come to

Someone of his caliber? Wallace thought with a scoff. The conqueror Superior should really be happy for what he was currently going through. He could bet his soul that in his past life, none of these boys would have dared to utter a syllable of this to his face. Their heads would have been rolling across the dirt before they could even finish the sentence.However, Wallace knew he needed to maintain his cool if he wanted to get what he came for.“My sincere apologies,” Wallace replied, his voice dripping with an easy, unbothered confidence. “You are entirely right; this card wasn't originally meant to be mine. However, courtesy of the person who gave it to me, I get to enjoy what you all had to struggle so hard to achieve.”The three students exchanged shocked glances. Why did this trash talk like an ancient man? They couldn't understand his authority because he was quite different from what they described him as!“Hand it over!” one of them demanded, stretching his hands as he clear

“How was the class? You know, I was really worried about how you would be treated considering the fact that I wasn't there… were they mean to you… did they….”“Hey… one question at a time!” Wallace replied with a light smile while she nodded even though it was obvious that she was worried. “Nothing happened… in fact, I was told that I would be given my access card while I return yours. You don't have to worry about it anymore”He said almost immediately while Becca looked at him in shock. That has to be the biggest lie in the century because it was one thing for him to be granted access and it was another thing for him to be given a card that took her ages even when she was already due for it. And considering his status, she knew it may be a bit tight.“Why does it seem like you are now hiding things from me? Should we start doing that to each other now?” She asked, displeased. “I have no reason to tell lies to you” Wallace replied. However, she could see that he was really telling

A minute later, Franca snatched the phone from Becca, utterly furious as she realized how quickly the tables had turned. Stomping her feet in a rage, she inwardly cursed her father. How could he have been so blind to Wallace's background just for the sake of profit? Now, she was trapped, looking like a total fool right in front of Wallace.Her face burned as a sales representative pulled up the CCTV footage on a larger screen, drawing the prying eyes of everyone in the boutique straight toward Franca and her friend.“Since you wanted to act like a fool so badly,” Wallace said coldly, “you have to pay for the ruined clothes, as well as the damages you caused to me.”At once, the color drained completely from Franca’s face.“Just because you've suddenly been granted a little power, you think you can do whatever you want?” she hissed.‘Darling, I have always been a powerful man you wouldn't dare mess with,’ Wallace thought to himself. Aloud, he simply shrugged, deciding to play along. “
