It was unlike Sebastian or anyone in that gathering to do that, so everyone seemed pretty invested in what he was about to say, while watching every one of his movements.

'What was he going to say?’

'Can he just shut up already?’

'I really hope he does not make a fool of himself this time?’

Different murmurs emerged from different corners of the room, and even Paul and other associates that had conspired against Catherine and Theodore looked confused.

    “Twenty minutes until we know how fucked we are,” Kelvin broke the twig in his hand, replacing it with another one that was right beneath him.“I guess you're on the same ground as me,” Matthias looked towards the sky and a soft sigh escaped his mouth.It was a gathering of four and the remaining three looked at one another with confusion on their faces.Kelvin threw one of the tiny branches to Matthias to draw back his attention. “What do you mean by that?”“A lot of them think we might make it out unscathed, but…but your statement is exactly how it should be said,” his voice broke with fear. “From the look of things it seems like there's a scale to how fucked we are.”Matthias looked around before he added, “there’s no such thing as this might be good for us.”Jasper still looked unbothered. Instead, he scattered the Rubik's cube once again, on the verge of solving it for the ninth time since the beginning of the day as though he was trying to beat his own record.“Dude, don't you t

    Catherine wrapped her arms around her knees that were pressed to her chest, twisting her face in irritation as memories of what happened about two days ago came resurfacing.She watched Adrian brutally smash Sebastian's head against a pillar in the room. He smashed it so hard that one would think it was a truck that ran him over. And not just once. Continuously.Sitting in the corner of the room she was given by the group, she knew she had to rethink her decision. 'What would be my fate if I betray him and he knows?’She shook her head at the thought of that. Maybe that was no longer supposed to be a question. Not with what she had just seen, there was no way she was going to survive it if he ever finds out.“I've got to tell Theodore,” she picked up a navy-blue shirt that stopped just beneath her breast, and a glance at the mirror told her she was good to go.Immediately she turned the doorknob, a sudden gasp escaped her throat. “How long have you been staying here?”She rolled her

    “All these, just to prove no one is above the system?” Ashford's voice boomed across the room and he could only laugh at the thought of it.Apparently, he also got the information about the upcoming event, and at first he was completely unbothered but after seeing that participation was not optional he became concerned. Still, he could not bring himself to believe the fact that the system would allow someone of his calibre to participate in something like that.“Well, it seems like it's going to be a group. Although, we don't know how many people are going to be selected,” Freya scrolled through her system's window while her gaze darted between Brandon and Ashford at intervals.One was due to her duties. As for Brandon, she could not just stop thinking about the sudden change. 'Not in a place like this,’ she shut her eyes for a brief second.Ashford also opened his window, scanning through it with a stern expression and gritted teeth. The first place his eyes went to was the amount o

    “Oh my goodness, we're so fucked!” Matthias threw both hands above his head, clearly thrown into a state of disbelief like he had just received the most terrible news of his life. So far, he was the only one who had been able to say anything since Joshua passed the information to them with his phone placed on the center table in the room. After all, there was no need to call an urgent meeting in the supposed location. The meeting room.They had never seen Joshua thrown into a state like that before.Shaken. Bewildered. And above all, speechless.“Okay, this has to be really crazy right now,” Jasper sunk into the couch he was sitting on while expressing his frustration with a scoff. “You mean we're going to be selected?”No one had an answer to that, since it was only a speculation.“Jeez man, what's the worst that could—”“Please, Benjamin, just shut up,” Alice rolled her eyes at him with a sudden click of her tongue. “Look, we're already in a shitty position already okay?”“Don't a

    Joshua had been seated in the corner of the compound for a while, but as the sun rose, he had no other choice than to find a shade, due to how scorching it was.Well, that was not going to be hard to find, and without staying another second he changed his location, while looking at the building from below.Three names kept ringing in his head, and even when he tried to distract himself it was just impossible to actually forget about it. He could have stayed upstairs, distract himself, but instead, he chose to sit alone.'Maybe I don't want to stop thinking about it,’ he crossed his arms above his chest with a low exhale.Among the three names, Ashford's name took the number one spot since Joshua had done the calculations, and he figured Ashford was on the route to being the one with the most first place spots.'How many times exactly has he been granted a wish?’ Joshua could not hide his expression. He was not even willing to do that since it seemed to him like it was one of those ran

But they had come too far for them to back off.Moreover, they were likely going to suffer the same fate as him if things went south, so they had to quickly adjust in their sitting position, replacing the ignorant expression with something close enough to be tagged ‘confidence.’“Why do you keep looking at Larissa? You should speak up immediately or I'll walk out of this place,” Adrian's eyes had began to become dull as though he was already s
