As the students dispersed from the heated confrontation in class, James and Andrew pulled Jackson aside.

They knew Jackson to act stupid at times, which was something common in the group. But that Jackson would venture into a bet that he already lost before entering was the dumbest thing anyone would ever do.

“Bro,” James said, arms crossed, “what the hell was that about? You just made a bet with Joanne Moore. You do realize who she is, right?”

Andrew added, “She’s got the media in her pocket. Her dad’s the Senate President for crying out loud. And now she’s all over Yvonne Tween’s official handles. And then, you were bold enough to stand in front of everyone and make that stupid bet? Trust me, you just earned yourself a free ticket to becoming an errand boy to Joanne.”

Jackson smiled faintly, almost as if he were completely unaffected.

He wished his friends knew what he was planning to turn the contest into. He would be shocking the whole world on the day of the contest and would beg

  • Chapter 98: The First Clue!

    Jackson stared out of the tinted window, lost in thought as they left Senator Patrick’s Estate, making their return to Sky Tower. The meeting had gone as expected, maybe even better. Senator Patrick’s vision, political influence, and deep-rooted rivalry with Senator Moore painted a clear picture—this wasn’t just a power struggle anymore and that there are those whom he could still call allies.The silence between him and Mr. Copper was comforting—until curiosity finally got the better of him.Hearing that his father had been in full support of Bruce Hamilton’s presidency and yet not once did the media pick it up and made a news about it still surprised him as he couldn’t help but wonder how his father had been able to do it.Just few weeks of pretending to be Mystery billionaire, he had almost come to the end of himself that he couldn’t keep up with it anymore, and yet according to Mr. Copper and the records he had stumbled upon, the Hart’s Empire have been established for almost two

  • Chapter 97: The Meeting of Titans!

    The gate to Senator Patrick Stones’ estate opened with the smooth hum of security locks disengaging. Jackson’s sleek vehicle, escorted by two Hart Security vehicles, cruised into the compound—one of the most secure political residences in the capital. As Jackson and Mr. Copper stepped out, a team of sharply dressed aides approached to welcome them.“Mr. Hart, Mr. Copper—welcome,” said the lead aide with a respectful bow. “The senator is expecting you. Please follow me.”They were led through marble hallways lit with golden chandeliers and lined with framed photographs of Senator Stones from his early days as a lawyer to the Senate floor to his work on international peacekeeping summits.The aura was thick with legacy. The kind of legacy that didn’t just serve a country—but helped shape it.The doors to the private meeting lounge opened.There, standing in a tailored navy-blue suit, was Senator Patrick Stones himself, tall and commanding despite his silver hair and aged features. A man

  • Chapter 96: The Senator’s Wrath!

    “I stand before you today not as the Mystery Billionaire but as Jackson Hart—the son of Philip Hart and heir to the Hart’s Empire.”The words continued to echo in Senator Moore’s ears minutes after the press release, and that got him seething with anger as he slammed the remote control into the floor with such force that the plastic casing split, batteries tumbling across the carpet like retreating soldiers. His chest heaved. His fists shook. The veins on his temple throbbed as his eyes narrowed to hateful slits as every word, every phrase, and every sentence replayed in his head.“That insolent brat,” he growled, standing from the leather recliner like a volcano erupting from years of dormant rage. “He just spat in the face of everything we built—on live television.”He paced, his steps sharp and erratic, like a predator too furious to stay still as the press conference had unfolded like a car crash he couldn’t stop. And every word Jackson spoke had chipped away at his plans. The pr

  • Chapter 95: An Invite from Senator Patrick Stones!

    The auditorium at Sky Tower Media Hall was packed.Reporters from every major outlet—both local and international—lined the seats like vultures circling a high-profile kill. Flashes from camera drones danced through the air. Outside, protestors gathered with signs reading “Where Is Yvonne?”, “Justice for Tween.”Tension boiled like an unspoken war as Jackson made an attempt to address them and also to clear the present his official statement as the heir to the Hart’s Empire before the propaganda from the Whitelists finds its way to the media space in full swing.Mr. Copper had told him he had barely two hours to make his official statement as it wouldn’t be long before the Whitelists discover that there had been an obstruction in the transmission of their press release earlier that morning.Inside the hall, Hailey clutched Nancy’s hand while James and Andrew stood at the back, ever ready to support their friend, Jackson. A storm of shutters erupted as Jackson stepped onto the stage,

  • Chapter 94: The Ransom Deadline!

    Jackson’s phone buzzed relentlessly beside his pillow as the morning sun filtered through his window. After the meeting with his friends, he had felt so much better, knowing that he could still count on them to help him with the cause he was pursuing in getting to find out what had led to Yvonne Tween’s kidnapping as well as the battles and conspiracies within the Hart’s Empire that he had also inherited.He had offered them to come stay with him in the penthouse at Sky Tower, but they had told him they’d consider the offer and get back to him.So, for now, he was there with Dr. Celestine as investigations were still ongoing as to who the masked man was that was captured in the CCTV footage who was seen leaving the lab just before the fire outbreak.The insurance company was still very much involved in the investigation, as they needed all proof that it was indeed arson before any plans of indemnification.Jackson groaned softly as the phone continued to ring, his eyes still heavy wi

  • Chapter 93: The Reunion!

    That same day, just before the end of classes, Jackson was seen driving through the gates of campus in one of the most luxurious cars that they had ever seen driven by any student. It was a Pagani Huayra Roadster BC, the latest model for that matter.And by the time he parked and stepped out of the car, the students were already going crazy over the car that had just pulled up in the driveway, as none of their lecturers—not even the top professors like Layton—could afford such.One by one they began to part like waves around him—whispers trailing behind like shadows. “That’s him.”“Jackson Hart, the real Mystery Billionaire.”“He looks different… colder somehow.”It has now become undeniable that Jackson was indeed Mystery Billionaire and also the heir to the Hart’s Empire, the most powerful empire in the world.But Jackson wasn’t focused on the stares. He was heading straight towards the Rooftop Garden on campus, where he had asked his friends to meet up with him. He had chosen not
