2024-08-03 17:00:05"Does he really think she’ll stay with a loser like him?"
The voice cut through the chatter in the hallway, pulling every student’s attention. Alex Carter, walking slowly by his locker, felt the words sting more than the usual sneers and pokes from his classmates. His gaze was fixed on the classroom door ahead, ignoring the taunts and whispers as best as he could.
"I heard she’s dating the poor loser," another voice chimed in, laced with disdain. "But it didn’t stop Noah from proposing to her."
Alex's heart skipped a beat. The “poor loser” could only mean him. His curiosity got the better of him, and instead of entering the classroom, he turned toward the other hallway, where the noise was growing louder.
“Say yes! Say yes! Say yes!” The chant echoed through the corridor as Alex pushed his way through the crowd, trying to catch a glimpse of what was happening. When he reached the front, his worst fear materialized before his eyes.
“Yes, I will be your girlfriend, Noah.” Janet’s voice was clear and resolute. Alex’s breath caught in his throat.
"Janet?" His voice was a mere whisper, yet it reached her ears. She turned to look at him, her eyes cold and indifferent, as if he were a stranger. For just a split second, her gaze faltered, but it was quickly replaced by an icy resolve. The crowd erupted in laughter, their mockery slicing through him like a knife.
“Did he really think he could keep a girl like Janet?” Someone snickered nearby.
“Maybe he should go back to the slums and find someone more his level,” another voice added with a cruel chuckle.
Noah, sensing the perfect moment to strike, stepped forward with a smirk. “Oh, look who’s here—the loser himself. Did you pick up the laundry like I asked this morning?” His words dripped with mockery.
Janet’s gaze swept over Alex, her expression one of pure disgust. Yet, there was something fleeting in her eyes—a hesitation that disappeared as quickly as it came.
Alex felt the weight of humiliation, but he refused to let it crush him. He locked eyes with Janet, his voice steady as he spoke. “But you know this riffraff is a playboy, right? Is this really who you want?”
Noah’s smirk vanished, replaced by a flare of anger. He couldn’t believe this poor, pathetic student had the audacity to challenge him. “What did you just say?” Noah’s voice was low and dangerous. Hence, instantly, he gave a subtle nod to two guys in the crowd.
Before Alex could react, he was grabbed roughly by the arms, held in place by the two goons. Then Noah stepped closer, his fury barely contained. “Say it again,” he demanded, his voice trembling with rage.
Alex didn’t flinch. He knew he was outnumbered, and he might lose this fight, but he wasn’t going to back down. Not now. Not ever.
“Riffraff,” Alex repeated, his voice firm and unyielding.
Just as Alex repeated his words, Noah's fist clenched, and for a brief moment, something dark flickered in his eyes—uncertainty, maybe even fear—but it was quickly masked by his usual arrogance.
He took a step back, as if recalculating his next move. Then suddenly, without warning, Noah drove his knee hard into Alex's stomach.
The crowd gasped as Alex doubled over in pain, but before he could catch his breath, Noah leaned in close and whispered, "You're going to regret that."

The case of students from upper-status families bullying those from lower-status families was so prevalent at Auguston Comprehensive College that not a week went by without an incident. Today was no different for Noah and Alex.Noah, with his arrogant smirk, couldn’t believe Alex had the nerve to call him a riffraff. This wasn’t just a word—it was a challenge. He had to make Alex pay or risk losing the respect he commanded from the other students.“Battle! Battle! Battle!” The chants echoed through the hallway, growing louder with each passing second. Noah rolled up his sleeves, ready to pummel Alex into the ground. He knew he was stronger and wealthier, and he had the crowd behind him. Victory seemed inevitable.Alex’s heart pounded like a drum in his chest. He knew this was a suicide mission—taking on someone like Noah, who had money and power, was foolish. But Alex couldn’t back down. He wouldn’t let this spoiled brat strip him of his dignity.“Ahhhhh!” Noah charged toward Alex, fi

Alex’s vision was hazy as he slowly regained consciousness. The world around him was a blur of shapes and colors, but gradually, everything came into focus. He was lying in bed with an IV drip attached to his arm. The sterile smell and white sheets told him all he needed to know—he was in a hospital. Confusion washed over him, and he voiced the question burning in his mind.“How did I get here?” His voice was hoarse and strained from the effort of speaking.He tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through his body, forcing him back down. Just then, a soft, calm voice broke the silence.“Trust me, Mr. Carter, you need to rest for a few more hours before we can be sure there won’t be any complications.”Alex turned his head slightly, wincing as he did. His eyes settled on the figure of a woman in a white lab coat. She walked toward him, revealing herself fully—a doctor with striking blue eyes and red hair, holding a syringe filled with some liquid.“How do you feel now, Mr. Carter?” Sh

The pain seared through Alex’s body, relentless and all-consuming, but it lasted only a few agonizing minutes. He thrashed around the room, his limbs moving as if controlled by some unseen force, as though something foreign was crawling beneath his skin. Then, as suddenly as it began, it stopped. His body went still and unnervingly calm, like the surface of a pond after a storm. But inside, everything was different.Even before the ring had shot onto his finger, Alex had sensed something peculiar about it. Lying on the floor, it pulsed with an eerie energy, almost as if it were alive. The moment the ring attached itself to him, a shiver ran down his spine, as though it whispered secrets that only his soul could understand. His eyes darkened, his sclera consumed by a pitch-black void, and suddenly, his reality shifted.He was no longer in his run-down apartment. Instead, he found himself in a hospital ward, standing unnoticed in a corner. He watched as a couple, radiant with joy, cradl
Revenge of The Secret Billionaire Student Chapter 0005 The New Energy
Alex stared at his fingers, captivated by the transformation unfolding before his eyes. His nails, once ragged and chipped, now gleamed with an almost supernatural cleanliness. His skin, which had been dull and worn from years of hardship, now shimmered with a vibrant glow, radiating health and vitality. It was as though he were witnessing a miracle—his body rejuvenating right before his eyes."What is happening to me?" he whispered, a mixture of awe and fear tingling in his voice.A strange, almost electric sensation pulsed inside his head, a warmth spreading through his skull. In an instant, it was as if a veil had been lifted—memories that had once been hazy and distant now came rushing back with vivid clarity, as though they had occurred only yesterday. He could recall every detail of his past with newfound sharpness, each memory playing out like a scene in a movie.Simultaneously, he felt his bones growing stronger, the frailty that had plagued him for so long vanishing as if it

The confidence surging through Alex was something entirely new—a heady, intoxicating feeling that filled him with a sense of purpose and certainty. With his father’s memories now intertwined with his own, he knew exactly where to go to claim his birthright.“Summit National Bank,” Alex muttered to himself as he shrugged on his jacket. He could hardly believe that he was about to step into a world that had been beyond his reach until now.For centuries, Summit National Bank had been the exclusive domain of the country’s elite—a fortress of wealth and power. This wasn’t just a bank; it was a symbol, a gatekeeper for those whose influence stretched far beyond mere money. To even have an account there meant more than being rich; it meant belonging to a different world. But now, Alex knew—an account had been created for him at this very bank.Stepping out of the taxi, Alex paused to take in the grand facade of the bank. Its towering pillars and ornate architecture were imposing, almost int
Revenge of The Secret Billionaire Student Chapter 0007 What is Sebastian Southlake Corporation?
Thirty years ago, the Sebastian Southlake Corporation reigned supreme over Southlake City, a titan of industry that every business aspired to partner with. Its influence was unmatched, and securing a partnership with the corporation was a guaranteed path to prosperity. Even today, the legacy of the Sebastian Southlake Corporation holds firm, though the company has been without a president for more than two decades.The reason for this long-standing absence was a tragedy that shook the entire city. Sebastian Carter, the president of the corporation, perished in a horrific fire that consumed his home, taking with it his family. The fire left the corporation leaderless, and since then, only a vice president has managed its affairs. But before his untimely death, Sebastian Carter had left behind a will—a will that foretold the day his only son and rightful heir, Alex Carter, would come to claim his inheritance and assume control of the corporation. The day had finally arrived, and the mer

The vault was a treasure trove beyond imagination. Stacks of dollars were meticulously arranged in bundles, but what truly caught Alex’s breath were the countless gemstones—gold, diamonds, jade—all shimmering under the dim light. The sheer wealth inside was staggering, easily worth over a hundred billion dollars.Despite possessing his father's memories, Alex had no idea what the vault contained until this very moment. His eyes widened in disbelief as he took in the sight before him.“All this is mine? This is my inheritance.” Alex murmured, still in shock, struggling to comprehend the magnitude of what he was seeing.Mr. Sterling, the bank manager, was equally stunned. In all his years of managing the bank, he had never encountered anything like this. He knew Sebastian Carter had been an exceptionally wealthy man, but the fortune left behind was far beyond anything he could have imagined. The legacy left to Alex was truly astounding.As Alex tried to process what was happening, he cl
Revenge of The Secret Billionaire Student Chapter 0009 The Secretary Was Shocked
Jake Lawson, the project manager at Sebastian Southlake Corporation, stepped out of the elevator and immediately took in the scene before him. A young man, dressed in shabby clothes, was struggling against two security guards. The situation looked precarious, and Jake's heart raced as he assessed the potential threat. The young man’s appearance suggested he might be a street thug or a common thief, posing a risk to the corporation’s property.“What’s going on here?” Jake's voice cut through the lobby with authority as he turned his piercing gaze towards the secretary.The secretary quickly pointed a finger at Alex. “This man asked to see Madam Ava, sir.”Jake’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the young man. “And why does he want to see Madam Ava?”“I don’t know, sir,” the secretary replied, her tone dismissive. “But he doesn’t seem important. He’s probably here to steal something.”Jake nodded in agreement. Recently, Madam Ava had reported an attempted break-in by some rough-looking ind

Chapter 0241 Inside The office
Elisha stepped his foot into the office. It was quiet, elegant, and heavily guarded. He saw Alex sitting right behind his desk like the president he was—confident, composed, and commanding.“Mr….” Alex began, feigning ignorance of his name. He did it deliberately. He wanted Elisha to repeat his introduction, hoping that this time he might slip, say something different—something that would give Alex a reason to act.Receiving his handshake with a respectful bow, Elisha obliged. “Elisha Gunn, President of the Children’s Wealth Foundation Home,” he said firmly.A military general like him? He had gone on countless missions in the past—covert operations that demanded he maintain alternate identities. How could he forget something as simple as a name? Especially when the first name was real and the last name was fabricated? This was child's play for someone of his caliber.Alex nodded slowly, his sharp gaze fixed on Elisha. He gestured to the chair in front of his desk with a smooth wave o
Chapter 0240 Get To Alex
The crowd rasped their hands together again, and the applause was louder—yet gentle—at the same time. It wasn’t a thunderous roar, but rather a respectful acknowledgment of the moment. This was the sign that Alex was leaving the stage, heading somewhere private, as was customary for such events.But it didn’t mean the party was over—not by a long shot.Hence, knowing this all too well, Sonya leaned closer to Elisha. Her voice dropped into a whisper. “Like I said earlier. I will make it happen. But after I do, you better keep to your word, because I will be waiting for you.” Her words were soft, but they carried weight, a kind of veiled threat wrapped in promise, as they reached his ears.Elisha smiled again. Women were always the same, he thought—complex and calculating in the most familiar way.In this very moment, his mind drifted back to a memory during the time of war when he had been deployed to Afranister. It was a different place, a different time—but the manipulation was just

“Ahem!” Ms. Sonya cleared her throat the moment she noticed Alex and Elisha holding their handshake longer than usual. The atmosphere around them shifted—subtle, but undeniable. She narrowed her eyes at the pair.Her gaze moved to Alex’s face. His expression was slightly squinted—like someone trying to process a gut feeling or a hidden message. There was tension in his eyes, not the typical expression worn when meeting a stranger.Then she turned her attention to Elisha. He wore a smirk. Not just any smirk—it was the kind that carried intent. Calculated. Confident. There was something behind it, something unspoken. But what exactly, she couldn’t tell.Maybe they were old buddies just reconnecting? she thought, attempting to shake the discomfort as she stepped back. Still, something about their exchange didn’t sit right.“Perhaps I’ll leave you two to catch up, huh?” she muttered awkwardly, trying to mask her confusion with a polite smile before walking away quickly, heels tapping shar
Chapter 0238 Alex Speech
“Shall we go see the president?” he gestured lively to the ladies.It wasn’t just a casual suggestion—it was a calculated move. As a general, he knew how certain kinds of people responded to power and presence. Ladies, especially those of high standing, often relished being seen in privileged company or known for being familiar with influential individuals. Elisha had learned this much from his interactions with them. Judging from everything he'd picked up since mingling in these circles, it was always about the appearance of access.“I have never spoken to the president one-on-one before. I dream, perhaps my lucky day is today,” he added, lowering his gaze toward the glass of wine in his hand. He crafted a look as pitiable as possible, as though this unfulfilled wish weighed on him deeply.Hearing that he had never spoken to President Alex before, the ladies gasped, covering their mouths in surprise.There were three of them in total—elegant and commanding. Each was a CEO of a differ

Hence, Elisha was going to leverage it for his mission.Like everybody else, Elisha drove right through the already opened gate. Beforehand, he had not known about the gala, but coincidentally, the gala was happening tonight, and wasn’t he the luckiest man?He smiled at the valet as he tossed him his car key, then confidently walked away from the door, blending effortlessly with the evening's elegance.He made sure to walk on the red carpet that was spread to glorify the staircase beyond the front door.

Chapter 0236 The Reservation
Elisha sat on the edge of the bed in his hotel room. The room was not like something he was used to.The small-sized bed, the small-sized room, the small-sized everything that was put in the room. It all felt almost suffocating. Back in Norway Bradad, his governmental-given residence was triple the size of this small-sized reservation in this hotel. But even so, he purposely chose the room.“It would be easier to get ready for the day ahead here than being in the bigger room," he convinced himself as he inspected this room before he paid for it. Sometimes, simplicity helped him focus.Ten minutes into sitting there, lost deep in thought about how he was going to execute his plan tomorrow, he heard the doorbell ring. Quickly shaking himself out of his mind maze, he rose to open it.Before opening, he already knew it was no one other than the personal shopper who had been summoned by the receptionist, judging by the needs he had earlier mentioned to her. He straightened his posture befo
Chapter 0235 Getting to The City
Five days and five nights passed, and Elisha was still walking towards the north in the jungle. His body was weary, his legs were swollen, and hunger gnawed at his insides like a wild beast. Each step grew heavier than the last.As the evening of the fifth day fell upon him, he found himself beneath the welcoming shade of an apple tree. He sat down heavily to catch his breath. This apple tree was the first edible fruit tree he had seen since he had started wandering through the dense and relentless jungle.To this discovery, he decided he would not miss this opportunist.Elisha looked up to the top of the tree and noticed a few apples already ripened under the orange sky. He reached out and touched the trunk, feeling the roughness of the tree bark beneath his palm. It was sturdy enough—something he could climb.Different countries, different weather, different soil, right? Back in Norway Bradad, apple trees were short. You could simply stretch out your hands and pluck even the apples
Chapter 0234 How to Evacuate
Being the president of Norway Bradad, Agata had access to a lot of things, including a military private helicopter.After Elisha gave him a solemn nod, he understood the assignment without needing further explanation. He stepped out of Agata’s office with a respectful bow and immediately headed to the military camp, his mind already preparing for the mission ahead.For a general like him, war and battles were no strangers. He was a man who had climbed from the bottom to the very top of the military hierarchy, earning every stripe and rank through sheer determination and skill.Forty years ago, Elisha had joined the military as a recruit. His days had been filled with rigorous training—brutal trainings so harsh that many recruits like himself lost their lives before they could even complete it. But Elisha survived. He endured.From that point, he began at the lowest rank. Through unwavering bravery, numerous achievements, and countless victories in wars, he continued to rise. His progr
Chapter 0233 Other Nation Followed Suit
Agata hung up the call suddenly, his breathing fast and heavy like an angry lion. He slammed the phone on the desk, clenching his fists as the fury boiled inside him.If Halsten had not threatened him, he’d have known exactly what to do. Even if it were not to later secure the oil well, he would have invaded Velmoria without a second thought and taught Alex a harsh lesson he wouldn’t forget.However, his hands were tied, and the feeling of helplessness gnawed at him. “Those motherfuckers!” Agata cursed bitterly as he pictured Halsten’s smug face and imagined giving him the weaning — right in his head again, harder this time.He exhaled sharply and moved toward his desk from the glass wall where he had been standing when he received the call. Just as he reached his chair, the heavy door creaked open, and Elisha stepped into his spacious presidential office.“Sir, I think you need to see this,” Elisha said, his voice tense with urgency.Agata turned sharply to face him. Elisha held a t
