At that moment, hearing what Tyler just said, London couldn't just help himself, he burst into mocking laughter that rang through the luxurious hall like a drumbeat of contempt. His voice echoed, drawing the attention of everyone once more as he stepped boldly into the center of the room, his expression twisted with arrogance and disdain.

“Who the hell do you think you're talking to, boy?” London sneered, waving a hand toward himself. “You think you're standing in front of one of your poor neighbors or some street seller? This is me—London. I don’t entertain delusions, especially not from someone like you.”

The room grew tense again. Some of the seated guests chuckled quietly. Others nodded with approving smirks, feeding off the energy London was throwing into the air like firewood into flame.

“Everybody here knows you can’t afford a damn thing in this place,” London continued, his tone rising in pride. “This isn’t some open market where you come and price pepper, Tyler. This is Z Str

    The room quieted for a moment—not out of respect, but out of more curiosity. Even London, caught off guard by Tyler’s poise, stopped laughing for a second, his arms crossed and his eyes narrowed.At that moment the manager hesitated slightly, her fingers brushing the tablet in her hands. “Well…” she began, nodding slowly, “there is an alternative, Mr. Tyler. But I must be honest with you it’s not a store. It’s something far more significant.”The silence in the room deepened.“It’s one of the premium commercial buildings located at the core of Z Street,” she said. “It includes four floors, already fitted for high-end luxury retail, with additional space for customization. It’s not just for rent, it’s under private listing for acquisition. Only two people have shown interest in it so far because of the price tag.”At that moment London scoffed. “Here we go again,” he muttered, rolling his eyes.The manager looked at Tyler seriously. “But I’ll be frank with you, sir. It’s extremely expe

    At that moment, sensing the tension in the air and the disgusting look on almost all of the guests’ faces, the whispers, the exchanged smirks, the outright glares, it was clear to the manager that things were quickly escalating. She stood there frozen for a second, not because she didn’t know what to say, but because she had expected this all along. The moment she laid eyes on Tyler and his mother, she already knew. Judgments were bound to come, especially from people like London who felt that the world belonged only to them.She let out a soft sigh and took a slow step forward. The murmurs didn’t die down, but her voice cut through the room loud enough to command attention.“Enough,” she said calmly but firmly. “ Please Everyone take a seat.”Some obeyed out of confusion, others out of sheer curiosity wanting to know what on earth could justify allowing those two to be in the same room as them.The manager cleared her throat. “Mr.Tyler and his mother would not be here if they were no

    Then she glanced briefly around the room before continuing, “Only those who are pre-qualified or who have come with an approved invitation will be given first-hand access to tour the top-tier spaces in Z Street and its surrounding sector. After this short presentation, our staff will hand out the list of properties along with the eligibility requirements.”At that moment London relaxed into his seat, thinking this was finally where real businessmen could speak. Meanwhile, Tyler sat still, his expression calm, not even flinching. His mother still seated beside him, quietly taking in everything, still a little unsure how all this was going to unfold.The manager looked over the room again and then added, “Let’s begin.”However, before the manager could even proceed with the presentation, a sound interrupted the silence, loud and full of arrogance.London stood up, slowly pushing his chair back with a screech that drew every eye in the room. A proud smirk tugged at the corner of his lip

    The moment Tyler and his mother entered the hall, all conversations inside came to an abrupt halt.The room was long and elegant, with a polished conference table that seemed to stretch from one end to the other. Expensive lighting fixtures hung from the ceiling, casting a warm, golden glow across the table. At least a dozen men were already seated, all dressed in tailored suits and expensive watches gleaming on their wrists. Some were sipping from wine glasses, others tapping on their phones.But the moment Tyler walked in fully, every pair of eyes turned.And then—the shift happened, at first, they didn’t say anything. No greetings. No acknowledgments. Just silence.But their faces spoke louder than words.A few exchanged glances. One of them leaned closer to whisper something to the man beside him. Others furrowed their brows, their expressions shifting from disinterest to visible disdain.It wasn’t loud, but the atmosphere had shifted, noticeably.From the way Tyler and his mother

    Upon hearing that voice, the front desk attendant froze. Her eyes widened in disbelief as the calm but authoritative tone echoed across the room. That voice she knew it. That was the manager. The very manager who rarely left her office, who didn’t waste her time dealing with trivial walk-ins. The lady’s lips parted, and she slowly turned around, hoping desperately hoping she had misheard.But no, she was right.The manager, a tall, well-dressed woman in a sleek navy-blue pantsuit, was striding toward them with purpose. Her heels clicked against the glossy tiled floor as she headed straight for Tyler. And the look on her face wasn’t one of annoyance or confusion—it was one of urgency and, more importantly, respect.Trying to recover her pride, the front desk attendant immediately stepped forward, putting on her most professional tone. “Ma’am, I was just telling them… His name, or face it’s not on the list of expected guests today. I checked. Maybe it was an error—”But the manager didn
