The university hall was filled with the excited murmurs of graduating students, proud parents, and faculty members. The ceremony proceeded as each names were called met with applause and cheers.

But when the dean announced, "Snow Reeds—summa cum laude, valedictorian, and recipient of the Chancellor’s Award for Academic Excellence," the applause was thunderous.

No one in the audience—not her classmates, not even her professors—knew the truth about Snow.

To them, Snow was just another brilliant student, a quiet but determined young woman who had worked hard for her achievements.

None of them suspected she was the sister of Barry Reeds, the most powerful and wealthiest man in the world.

Snow had kept her identity hidden deliberately, wanting to earn her success on her own merits, not because of her brother's name or wealth.

And she succeeded.

As she walked across the stage to receive her honors, her gaze swept over the crowd—and then she saw them.

Barry.

Veronica.

  • Brutus Theodore

    Dexter had just disappeared into the depths of the mansion when the doors of the dining hall swung open. A boisterous wave of laughter and clinking glasses spilled into the sitting room, followed by the Theodore family. At the forefront was Brutus Theodore—Dexter’s uncle.He was a broad-shouldered man with a thick beard and a face flushed from wine. His expensive suit strained against his girth as he strode forward, still chuckling at some private joke. But the moment his eyes landed on the sitting room, his laughter died. His entire body stiffened. Barry lounged in the velvet armchair like a king on his throne, one leg crossed over the other, fingers steepled in amusement. Snow sat nearby, unbothered, sipping from a delicate glass of wine she had apparently procured from somewhere. Brutus’s face darkened. His thick fingers curled into fists. "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" His roar silenced the chatter behind him. The rest of the family—uncles, aunts, cousins—froze, thei

  • The Theodore family

    The following week, Dexter boarded a flight back to his homeland with Barry and Snow accompanying him. The mood during the journey was quiet. Dexter’s fingers drummed restlessly against his armrest the entire time. He hadn’t returned here in decades. The thought of seeing his family again filled him with uneasiness.Finally, they landed.As they drove through the countryside in a weathered taxi, Dexter sat beside the driver, his face pale as he stared out the window. Barry and Snow sat in the back, watching him closely.Dexter cleared his throat. "I’ve made arrangements to meet my family at the estate. They agreed to grant us an audience at the family estate"Barry studied him for a moment before smirking. "You look so nervous, Dexter." Dexter swallowed hard. "Well, of course I am. It’s been decades since the last time I laid eyes on them." Snow glanced between them, her expression uneasy. "I’m surprised they were willing to grant us an audience." Dexter let out a humorless l

    Barry’s expression hardened as he leaned forward slightly. "Why can’t you do that?" he asked, his voice low but firm. Dexter shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his fingers tightening around his coffee cup. "It’s… not that simple," he muttered, avoiding Barry’s gaze. "My family and I aren’t on good terms." Barry locked eyes with him. "Explain." Dexter swallowed, his jaw clenching briefly before he looked up, desperation flickering in his eyes. "Please, Mr. Barry," he said, voice strained. "I love Snow. Let’s just leave my family out of this. Involving them is a bad idea." Barry frowned. "If I don’t meet your family, I won’t give my blessing." Snow shifted beside Dexter. “Barry,” she said softly, giving him a look—a silent plea. “Let it go, please.”But Barry ignored her, keeping his focus locked on Dexter. The tension in the air thickened. Dexter exhaled sharply, his shoulders slumping slightly in defeat. "Fine," he said quietly. "I’ll tell you why." He took a moment to

  • Dexter

    Barry studied Snow’s face for a long moment before asking, "Who’s the guy?" Snow tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, her expression softening. "Well... I’ve been seeing someone for a few months now. He’s an intern doctor at the city's Central hospital." Barry raised an eyebrow. "An intern?" She nodded. "He’s sweet. Really kind. He proposed a month ago, but... I wanted your blessing before saying yes." Barry exhaled, crossing his arms. "Snow, last time you were with that guy—what was his name? I don’t even remember. It didn’t end well. He turned out to be a scumbag. Are you sure you know what you’re doing? Does this new guy really love you?" Snow’s gaze remained steady. "I did my homework this time, Big brother. I dug into his past, his family, everything." She paused as she took a deep breath. "He comes from money—or at least, he was supposed to. His parents died when he was young, and his uncle took control of his inheritance. Left him with nothing." Barry’s j

  • Loid's Death

He couldn't beat cancer. There were no cries for help, no drama, no final words in the Sullivan's villa. Just silence.Loid had left strict instructions: no grand ceremony, no public spectacle, no weeping press and no headlines. He wanted a quiet burial, attended by only his family. He said he didn’t deserve more than that.Barry honoured his last wish.The funeral took place the next morning, without delay. No black cars in a procession, no flashy suits or cameras. Just the Sullivan family.It was a cloudy day, when Loid was buried. Everyone was gathered at the cemetery Barry had personally renovated at his hometown. And that’s where Loid was laid to rest, right beside his wife's grave.The ai

  • Vince downfall

    After Barry's Free cire was announced, the world moved swiftly like a breeze. Within hours of the announcement, fleets of Sullivan Group planes took off, carrying millions of doses of the cure to every major city on the planet. Trucks rolled out in synchronized waves, delivering vials to hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies.
