"Excuse me?" Jedidiah who had just chugged down a glass of clear water, nearly choked on the liquid when he heard Charles Baizen's abrupt and completely unexpected suggestion.

Immediately swallowing hard, he let out an awkward cough as he shot Natalie a confused look. As if sensing the puzzlement in Jedidiah's heart, Natalie promptly spoke up.

"Although it might sound abrupt, but I am afraid this is the only sensible route you should take. Especially in the current situation you are in."

"Current Situation?" Jedidiah repeated under his breath. This was the second time Natalie had uttered this in a row. An ominous feeling began bubbling up in the pit of his stomach.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

With her cherry red lips parting into a smile, Natalie coyly caressed the rims of her sake cup with her manicured fingers. "The current Miller Clan is at war and you are an unfortunate sheep who just got shoved in between two warring wolves. Even if Lady CeCe ends up being the victor,

    Bang! The sound of a vodka mini cup slamming against the surface of a counter table, barely left any sound — at least not while it was drowned by the frenzied music blarring in the background. "What's the hold up eh? keep them rolling!" Viper Teeth who was currently occupying a stool besides the bar tender's counter, harshly snapped. His face was currently swollen in several places and the black eye only went further to make his visage appear even more miserable. Although there existed expensive medicines that could remend broken bones and even heal damaged internal tissues to a certain degree, there was none that could restructure mangled facial tissues in the short span of less than a day. As for who was responsible for landing him in his current state, all Viper Teeth wanted to do was drown out the embarrassment he was currently feeling — Just thinking of the humiliating beat down he suffered at the hands on a snot nosed brat made him almost feel like vomiting blood. The worst

    By the time Jedidiah stepped out of the bright yellow taxi that smoothly pulled over beside the towering gates of Lady CeCe's Villa, the skies above him were slowly starting to turn dark. "It is about to rain soon." glancing at the digital report of the time across his phone screen, Jedidiah bemused. -- 3:30 pm Watching the taxi drive off into the horizon after he successfully paid his fare, Jedidiah unconsciously continued staring at the receeding backlights of the vehicle, momentarily lost in daze. He was still unable to rid himself from the echos of his conversation with Charles Baizen and Natalie. He ended up mistakenly blurting out the potential danger that both Ayanna and her father were facing at the hands of Viper Teeth and the Skyfall gang. The three of them ended up spending an entire hour brainstorming potential ways to prevent the crisis and they eventually came to an agreement. Although it wasn't something Jedidiah had thought about earlier on, he felt it was the m

    The first time Jedidiah learned that accessing Velvet Rose Garden required a customer to possess a membership card, he had his own share of skepticism — It was just a restaurant where people go to eat right? why did the owner have to be so snobbish about it? However as he arrived at the top floor of the commercial building where Velvet Rose Garden was situated in, he was literally stunned for words. Except his eyes were playing serious tricks on him, stepping into the top floor of the building felt like he just walked right into an entirely different world. "Where are we?" finally unable to contain his curiosity, he found himself blurting out in a clueless manner. To his disbelief, the entire top floor was actually a wide plain littered with velvet roses. Gazebos were strategically erected across several areas of the plain of Velvet Roses and inside them were several customers who appeared to be enjoying their meal with gusto. The colorful chirping of birds.. the refreshing and ca

    Jedidiah felt uncomfortable under Natalie's intense gaze. Being stared at in that manner and by a beautiful lady no less, felt surreal to him — It was definitely a first! Just as Jedidiah made to speak, he noticed the middle aged man behind Natalie take a step forward as he extended a handshake. "It is a pleasure to finally meet you. My name is Charles Baizen" What?! The entire lobby immediately descended into an awkward silence with almost every gaze trailing towards Charles Baizen extended hand. They were not trapped in a dream were they? It had to be! Or else how could they explain the scene playing out before their eyes!! Who was Charles Baizen? He was a trillionaire with a B- List Company under his belt. Someone with that kind of status normally had their pride and the number of people who could cause them to act courteous didn't exceed the two digits figure. If it was a country president who Charles Baizen was addressing in such a courteous manner, none of them would f

    —[You have trolled Darwin Hughs for +100.. +100.. +100] "Y--You know who I am?" Darwin's head momentarily went blank. This pauper actually knew who he was? He actually didn't mishear him the first time but knew about his identity as the son of Captain Hughs. So why-- "Yep. How many times am I going to answer that question?" Jedidiah clicked his tongue. "Maybe you've got too much dirt in your ear that is obstructing your hearing?" The realization of the situation slowly dawned on Darwin. The other party clearly knew who he was and yet was intentionally ignoring his father's prestige! —[You have trolled Darwin Hughs for +500.. +500.. +500] x2 "Very good. I was inclined to accept your heartfelt apology after you got on your knees but now? you have not just only been offended me, you have spat on the honor of my father and the entire 30th Precinct!" "Nobody in the entire city will be able to save you now. Not even a god!" Darwin let out a cold fit of laughter that bore a semblan
