Return from the Abyss: The Superpowered Young Master

Chapter. 07

Ali ordered several café employees to gather all the money Jay demanded. It doesn’t matter, he thought. Madam will take it back eventually anyway.

Jay then spoke to his companions. “You wait and guard the outside. Remember, don’t let anyone break in and ruin my plan.”

“What about these people, Boss?” Nayaka asked, pointing at the restrained café staff.

Jay pointed toward a room. “Put them all in there and lock it from the outside.”

“Yes, Boss!” Jay’s subordinates replied in unison.

Swiftly, the six members of Jay’s crew seized all the café employees and locked them inside a single room.

Not long after, stacks upon stacks of banknotes were neatly arranged before Jay, who now completely dominated the situation.

If counted, the amount reached hundreds of millions of rupiah.

Jay’s eyes gleamed as he stared at the orderly piles of cash, a sneer curling on his lips.

“Look at this,” Jay said, touching the stacks and squeezing them with simmering rage.

“This is money earned from my family’s business, built with sweat, blood, and the hard work of my mother and father. But unfortunately, that useless man was tempted by the beauty of that slut who now stole the title of madam!”

“So it’s only right that this place and all its branches belong to me!” Jay continued, clenching his fist tightly.

“No!” Ali staggered to his feet. “This place and all the Wijaya Family’s businesses now belong to Madam Diana! And you, Young Master, no, you don’t!”

“And you!” Ali pointed at Jay’s face. “You’re nothing more than a stray dog kicked out by your own family! You’re a robber!”

Jay grabbed a stack of cash and slammed it onto the counter, his face flushed with anger. “I’m taking what’s rightfully mine. Robbing your own property is not a crime!”

“Traitor! You’re destroying your own family’s reputation!” Ali shouted, even though fear gripped him tightly.

“Reputation?” Jay grabbed Ali by the collar, glaring at him fiercely. “That name was stained the moment my father slept with a cheap woman and threw my mother away like trash. Did they really think I’d just stay silent and do nothing?”

“What … what do you want?” Ali trembled so badly he felt like he might wet himself.

Smack!

Jay punched Ali unconscious and shoved his body violently to the floor.

“Troublesome,” Jay muttered, clapping his hands to clean off the filth left by the man named Ali, known to be his stepmother’s loyal lackey.

“Guys!” Jay shouted. “Finish everything up, and we’re getting out of here!”

“Yes, Boss!”

Members of the JAY’X Gang scattered to carry out their tasks. Some secured the money, others destroyed CCTV cameras, and more.

From the corner of the room, a thin young man wearing glasses and a small headset raised his hand as a signal.

He was Ken, the tech genius of JAY’X. He had infiltrated the security room and accessed the video recording system.

“Boss, it’s clear,” he said quietly through the small microphone clipped to his collar.

Jay nodded, then glanced at the café that had been left in ruins. “Let’s go.”

They exited through the front door, laughing, leaving Hero Café in utter devastation. Employees who had hidden in the restrooms and kitchen slowly emerged, their faces pale.

When Ali regained consciousness, he could only sit amid the chaos, breathing heavily. He quickly grabbed his phone and called the only person who could handle everything.

Meanwhile, elsewhere ....

On the upper floor of the Wijaya Family’s grand Eastern European, style mansion, Diana Legiani sat on a plush chair, wearing a maroon satin nightgown as she polished her nails. Her phone rang. She answered lazily.

“What is it, Ali?” asked the forty-three-year-old woman, who still looked beautiful and seductive.

“Madam … Hero Café branch three-five was attacked!”

“What?” The woman called Madam was so shocked that she stood up without realizing it.

From the other end of the line, Diana asked, “When did it happen, and who did it?”

“It’s … that person looked like Young Master Jaya, Madam.”

Ali’s words felt like an explosion in Diana’s ears.

“What?” Diana’s eyes widened as her body trembled with rage. “That child isn’t dead yet?”

She paced toward the large window anxiously, her eyes blazing with fury.

If that child is still alive, wouldn’t he be a huge threat to me? And that incident back then .…

“So he’s really still alive?”

“Damn it!” Diana stomped her foot angrily against the floor.

I thought that incident had killed him, but he’s still alive. What should I do now? Diana was at a loss.

“Madam!” Ali’s voice came through again. “Madam, are you all right?”

“Oh!” Diana snapped back to her senses and quickly replied, “I’m fine. Just a few rats causing trouble—and they mean nothing to me.”

She took a deep breath.

After her anger subsided slightly, she said coldly, “Tell me everything that happened. And send me the CCTV footage immediately!”

“Yes, Madam. Please wait a moment. I’ll check it right away.” Ali then ended the call.

Not long after, a video file arrived in her private email. Diana immediately played it.

But the moment the video opened .…
