2026-06-19 14:10:16A golden light grew so bright, so bright it illuminated the entire environment until Daniel's eyes popped open. Right in front of him, were golden texts hanging mid air.
[LEGACY SYSTEM INITIALIZATION COMPLETE]
[Host Name : Daniel Hayes]
[System Status : Binding complete]
[Welcome Daniel Hayes]
Daniel almost freaked out. "I have finally lost it, haven't I?"
"Is this supposed to be my gateway to heaven?"
The door to the room opened up, Daniel saw past the golden text and a doctor had stepped in—Mid forties, adorned by a white coat and glasses.
It was then Daniel looked around and saw that he was actually in a hospital and not heaven.
But how?
"Good morning Mr. Hayes, glad to see you're awake." He said without making eye contact, his gaze was on the monitor. "How's the pain?"
Pain?
What pain?
Daniel also felt something, it shouldn't be possible, Infact, it shouldn't be at all.
Daniel felt he could move his other hand as if Victor never crushed it!
"Impossible!" Daniel gasped, brandishing the sight of his hand.
The doctor was slightly confused at his reaction. "What do you mean by Impossible Mr. Hayes?"
"Oh" Daniel kept his hand. "It's nothing actually, I don't feel any sort of pain, maybe a little?"
"I'll have the nurse change your medication then. You've gotten better."
But, something was still bugging him. "How long have I been here?"
"Four to five days? you were brought here on the night of the storm, actually, you were admitted into one of the wards and nobody knew, I thought you would be able to tell me when you woke up."
'What?' Daniel found it hard to believe. He looked up, and saw that the golden text was still there.
"Is there anyone you might need us to contact?" The doctor asked while he was arranging the medication.
"No."
"Family?"
"No."
"Friend or maybe a girlfriend?"
Daniel heaved a sigh. "No... there's no one Doctor."
The doctor was surprised at first but no ounce of sympathy whatsoever.
"That's alright then, the accountant will be here tomorrow to discuss your bill."
Daniel raised his brow. Bill?
"How much?"
"Well considering the medication you were given and your abrupt appearance in the hospital I can't say how long you've been within this walls---"
"The bill..." Daniel's voice was stern, he had no interest in the story.
"Well I'll say, Around a hundred thousand but I wouldn't advise you to start worrying about the payment, you should get some rest."
With that, Daniel forced a smile and looked away. The doctor also left.
Daniel gaze lingered on the glass windows long enough to remember the Hayes, a group of hungry vultures.
He remembered that night like it had just happened a few moments ago.
Victor's mother got a beach house.
The Eldest son, his brother, Marcus got the main office building.
Grandchildren got a bunch of stocks worth millions, Daniel adjusted his collars, sweat tickled down his head.
His aunt got large properties in Manhattan,
His uncles got large shares across several properties
His dad got a huge amount of retirement funds which meant he'd never need to work again.
Victor, his cousin got about three business organisations to himself, not only that, he got a card that had about a trillion dollars in it. If that wasn't enough, all the sports cars got handed to him.
He remembered it clearly but Victor... authority over faction X wasn't handed over to him, if Victor wasn't the new head of Faction X then who?
[Ding!]
[Day 1 Sign in — Will Host Like To Sign In?]
Daniel snapped, he had forgotten about the golden text resting above him.
A bold text was underneath the words [ SIGN IN ]
Daniel ran his hand across his hair. He didn't want to believe a thing but his healed hands? That was more than enough.
He stared at the sign in for a long time, he hesitated, "Argh! why am I even seeing this!" he covered his eyes praying the text would disappear but when he gently opened his eyes, they were still there.
A gentle pulse from the system reminded him about the sign in button.
"So be it." He focused his mind on the button and then it clicked with a thought and then —
[Ding! Host signed in successful]
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has obtained:]

[Scholarship To Harborview University Reinstated]
Daniel read the words like 5 times. A hundred million dollars? wait, a new account?
Daniel didn't remember opening a new account, he wasn't even sure of where he'd kept his phone. Everything happened so fast last night that he wished he was dead but now... he had another shot at life.
Also, scholarship to Harborview University?
Then, a phone rang beside him. Daniel jolted with a fright. He could have sworn that he didn't keep a phone there but... when the screen popped open, it had a picture of him in a blue tuxedo and a demon 170 behind him.
The phone was his!
He picked it up and answered.
"Good Morning Daniel."
"Oh! Mr. Henry!" Harborview University's Principal.
"I thought you were dead, when I contacted your family, they said they had no idea about your whereabouts."
Daniel didn't know how to respond. He already knew one thing and that was he had no family of his own.
"It's complicated Mr. Henry." Daniel managed to say. "But I'm fine..."
"That's good then, I'll be expecting you at Harborview University tomorrow. Don't be late on your first day."
Daniel smiled, "I won't Mr. Henry."
"Stay well then."
The call ended and Daniel couldn't take his eyes off his phone screen. Especially the demon 170 that was right behind him. Was that even him? When did he take that picture?
"Does this mean that —"
His words halved by the sudden notification of his phone.
He swiped it open and behold,

Just when excitement was set on overtaking him.

Daniel closed the tab, he made a low chuckle, everyone had looked down on him, even his own parents, he'd never forgive any of them.
All Hayes will feel his... wrath.
"Well then..." Daniel got on his feet and faced the glass window, savouring every bit of the beautiful skyline view of coastal city. "Let's get to work."

Aurora crossed her legs in an elegant manner, her finger tapping impatiently at the desk, Victor knew he got every of her attention now which was why he was slowly taking his time."You are aware of the auction gala coming up very soon right?""of course, my family never misses it, what has the gala got to do with Daniel Hayes?""Good! Since you know that. Then I am certain that you must also be aware of how the auction works and how some items not worth it can ruin a company""Again you are right, still I don't See how this add to anything that has to do with Daniel, how about you just go straight to the point because I don't have all the time in the world""We both know that my brother Daniel, aside the fact that he has some medical skills, he doesn't have money to back it up and his backup is Theresa Blackwell. Which means if we want to get to him, then I am afraid because we are going to have to use her""And how do you intend to do that?" Her eyes had lit up as she rose to her fe

The entire Clinton restaurant had gone wild, even those at the upper floors heard the commotion and had all come down to witness whatever drama that was going on.And indeed, everyone was shocked to see the CEO of Clinton restaurant on his knees in front of a boy who was still at his early twenties."Mr. Clinton, what are you doing, I just told you that this same boy had caused trouble for your restaurant, why are you kneeling for him?"Lax asked and the manager quickly stepped forward."Boss! He is right, this boy is just a useless failure who kept bragging here, do you even know that he went as far as saying that he would close down this restaurant"The manager lamented and Mishal who was on his knees, rose to his feet as he walked straight to his manager.And just when everyone did not expect, he raised his hand and slapped him really hard.Everyone gasped in awe as their jaws dropped. "You fool, did you even know what you are about to cause me right now!""Boss….. I haven't done a

Victor Hayes sat on his large armchair in his sophisticated office, his eyes staring at the report that had just been sent to him.He had applied for a loan with two prestigious banks at Coast City and given the Hayes name, Victor had believed that there was no way in the world he would not get the loan.But now, the report from the two banks was back and both loans had been rejected. That was something that had never happened with the Hayes before.The company was hanging on a thread. There were bills and salaries to be paid and if he could not handle it quickly, word would get out soon about a sinking ship.He could not let that happen, he did not want that to happen, but now, there was not a single option left and he had no clue what to do.His hands began typing through his computer and soon, a video had popped up on his screen. It was an old video that seemed to have trended on the Internet a few months ago.It was the video of one Mr. Hayes buying the same hospital that Aurora F

The CEO of Clinton Restaurant Mr. Mishal Clinton was on his way to a very important meeting when a call came through.The call was not from Mia but rather from Zane Creston himself. It was not every day he received a call from a man like Lord Zane and he immediately knew that whatever this was about it was important."Lord Zane." Mishal was trying very hard to keep his voice calm but he was not doing a very good job of it."Has your restaurant ever had any conduct issues or do you simply not train your staff properly.""What. Sir. Have they offended you.""Not me. But someone very important to me. To the point where your manager has threatened to have him beaten to death."Mishal felt his heart skip. Fear gripped him completely."He has ordered me to shut down your restaurant. And just so you know I take orders from him. If you cannot handle this situation within the next twenty minutes your restaurant will be shut down.""No. Please Lord Zane. I will handle it right away. Please do n

There was an intense silence that filled the entire restaurant, it seemed for a moment that everyone had stopped breathing."Wow! He has just got himself into some serious problem, don't he realize who Mr. Lax is?" Someone gasped, the whole crowd had shock filled both their eyes and mouths.Theresa stared around for a long while, understanding the situation on ground. She immediately fell to her knees, clutching Lax tighter."Please….. please Sir, my husband has just made a huge mistake just now, please I ask that you forgive him."She pleaded as her eyes were filled with panic and that enraged Daniel further, as he held her hand and dragged her up."Have you lost your mind Theresa! How dare you go on your knees for such a man!""What is wrong with you Dan, even in this moment, don't you see the situation at hand and what I am trying to do here.""I always ask for a little trust in me, is that so hard for you that you would think that I can't deal with a man like him.""Daniel he is v

As Daniel and Theresa stood there waiting for the manager to arrive Theresa could feel people starting to whisper around them."Daniel. Please let us just go. We could find another restaurant or better still we can make something at home. I am not even that hungry.""Yes you are. And do not let others make you feel like you do not deserve the best because you truly do. You are a Blackwell."He was trying his best to assure her yet he could see in her eyes how uncomfortable she felt.Just then the manager stormed over. A middle aged man dressed in a tailored suit with subtle facial hair and broad shoulders.From the way he walked it was easy to tell that he had been in this business long enough to have gained access to every elite circle he could think of."Good day. Mr. Hayes correct." He asked and Daniel nodded."First let me start by saying that we are sincerely sorry for what happened. It was entirely the fault of the staff member who was supposed to call and inform you of the chan
