On the day Jamie lost his mother to cancer, he also lost his only accommodation and his girlfriend. Years of torture, humiliation and servitude from his stepfather and stepbrothers, Jamie was nothing more than a miserable bastard to the Reynolds, one they so desperately needed to do away with. His mother’s death was their perfect opportunity as his stepfather evicted him from his house, abused him and his dead mother publicly, and ordered the doctor to sell her corpse to organ harvesters. His stepbrothers made a spectacle of him and his dead mother, treating them as though they were worse than animals. And to crown their hall of humiliation, they took his girlfriend and cost him his job. With everything lost, there was nothing to live for anymore. Jamie owed the hospital over $100,000 and his boss over the same amount. His life was at risk, his existence was meaningless, and everything was set against him… Except for a sudden alert of $10,000,000,000 and a call from the world’s richest and most powerful man, claiming to be his grandfather. Jamie wasn’t a bastard after all; he had a family—a rich and powerful family at that—and he was their rightful heir. With a net worth of tens of trillions of dollars and the power to shut down the world with the snap of his finger… What fate awaits all those who did him wrong? What end has he destined for those who mocked his dead mother and her dignity? What was in the heart of the trillionaire for those who made his life hell and paraded their measly change over him? Revenge is best served cold…Or whatever temperature the Rich and Powerful Jamie Ashford wants!

Chapter 1
The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the hospital room like an unwelcome guest. Jamie Reynold sat quietly by his mother’s bedside, his fingers lightly curled around her frail hand. Tubes and beeping monitors surrounded her like mechanical vultures, ticking down the moments she had left. Her skin had turned pale and parchment-thin, and each shallow breath she took rattled like a fading whisper. But to Jamie, she was still the strongest woman he'd ever known.He hadn’t slept in over a day. The nurses had offered to relieve him, to let him rest in the waiting room, but he refused. He wanted to be present for every second she had left. He wanted her to feel him beside her when she slipped away—not a stranger in white scrubs. He wanted her to feel loved.His phone buzzed in his pocket. He hesitated, glanced at his mother’s face—eyes shut, chest barely rising—then slowly stepped into the corridor. The name Amanda lit up his screen in soft white letters. He answered.“Amanda,” he said, his

The night at Lady Goodwin’s yacht was alive with an air of elegance, wealth, and exclusivity. The boat was buzzing with conversation, the clinking of glasses, and the low hum of private deals being made in the corners. The crowd of seventy elite guests was a mix of Hollywood’s high society, top-tier business moguls, and powerful political figures. Among them were the Reynolds brothers and their circle, and, of course, Stacy, Sonia’s closest friend.Sonia, the birthday girl, glided through the crowd, a beacon of charm and grace. She greeted every guest with a smile and a warm thank you for attending her celebration. Despite the glamorous setting, Sonia’s humility stood out. Unlike many of her HU colleagues, she wasn't caught up in the opulence of it all. Instead, she exuded an easygoing nature that made her more relatable to those around her, despite the elite crowd she was a part of.Beside her was Tyson Crook, his arm draped possessively around her shoulders. He was practically attac

Ray motioned for his men, and they moved swiftly, stepping out and clearing everyone outside the store with military precision. The manager, Ms. Tricia, returned, her face pale with fear. She trembled as she approached Jamie, but there was no longer any hint of defiance in her gaze—just an overwhelming dread."Please, Mr. Jamie," she begged, her voice shaking. "Let me settle this with you. You can pay for what you took... and I am sorry for my misconduct earlier and those of the girls."Jamie didn't even blink as he swiped his card, clearing the five million-dollar bill without hesitation. Ms. Tricia stared at the receipt in disbelief, but there was nothing she could do. Her hands trembled as she handed Jamie his purchases, and with a nod, he turned and walked out of the store. Questions filled her head to ask but she wouldn’t dare, Ray Fenix was very clear with his instructions, the consequences of disobedience would be dire. He lingered at the plaza’s gate, the sun glinting off his

The phone call was unlike anything Ray Fenix had experienced. He'd been in the presence of powerful men, criminals, and gangsters, but this—this was a game-changer. The name that appeared on his phone's screen was one he'd heard only in hushed whispers: Don Atorro, the head of AS99's North America operations.Don Atorro was an enigma, a near-legendary figure within the organization, a six-star general of the mafia world. Ray Fenix, by comparison, was nothing more than a mere captain, a foot soldier commanding a few hundred men, with dreams of one day rising through the ranks—he was four levels away from gaining his first star in the organization’s ranking. But Atorro? He was three levels away from the apex, from the true rulers of AS99. The 99-Degree Supreme Lords, who are nine in number—the ones whose mere presence could command entire continents—were the legends, and the Ashford clan, rumored to be their true masters, controlled it all. Only a born Ashford can be the Supreme Leader

Clandestine Fashion was a name that echoed opulence across every elite corner of the country. With a valuation of $2 billion, it wasn’t just a fashion brand—it was a symbol. Its Hollywood University branch, located within the most luxurious plaza near campus, was where the city’s young elite came to flaunt their privilege and burn money on imported Italian leather, silk scarves, and designer accessories. The chandeliers glittered like stardust, and the air inside was chilled to a precise 19°C, diffused with a fragrance that cost more than some students' tuition.And yet, in that glimmering temple of vanity, stood Jamie.Dusty, worn, and bruised from life’s most unforgiving trials, he held several shopping bags filled with clothes he intended to buy—if they’d let him. But his mere presence was causing tremors. The air changed the moment Olivia Feng made that call.The manager emerged moments later—Ms. Tricia Monteverde, the iron-clad guardian of Clandestine Fashion. She was a vision in

Jamie and everyone else stood in stunned silence, the kind that presses down like a sudden snowfall—quiet, cold, and impossible to ignore. Dr. Jason Trein, the same man who had arrogantly called the guards just moments ago, was now trembling, his phone clattering to the floor like it had burned his palm. His knees buckled beneath him, and before anyone could register what was happening, he collapsed onto all fours like a man struck by divine lightning.“Please... forgive me,” he whispered, his voice raw with desperation. “I had no idea... I didn’t know...”Jamie took a step back, genuinely puzzled and more than a little unsettled. Was this a prank? Some cruel hospital hazing ritual? But one look at the man’s face told him everything—this wasn’t performance. This was pure, undiluted fear.“What are you doing?” Jamie asked, narrowing his eyes.Dr. Trein lifted his tear-streaked face, lips quivering. “Sir, I just received a call from the president of our hospital chain at the headquarter

Jamie had spent the entire night dancing in the rain — soaked, cold, and mad with euphoria — on the same bridge he had nearly jumped off hours ago. His limbs ached from the wildness of his movements, but his soul, for the first time in years, felt alive. He twirled and spun and laughed like a man who had just wrestled with the gods and won. He sang aloud, arms flung wide to the heavens, the rain hiding his tears — both the old ones of grief and the new ones of redemption.Eventually, sometime before dawn, he slumped down on a wooden bench nearby, exhausted and half-conscious. The rain had stopped. His eyes fluttered open only when the early morning sun pierced the cloudy sky and kissed his wet face with golden warmth. Jamie groaned softly and sat up. His neck ached, his clothes clung to his body like damp rags, and he was shivering, but he had one thing on his mind.He fumbled into his pocket and pulled out his phone.With trembling fingers, he unlocked it and stared at the banking ap

Jamie stood at the far end of the winery, clutching the chilled bottle of champagne like it was the last thing tying him to this world. His hands trembled—not from the cold, but from the chaos boiling inside him. The warehouse-like backroom was dim, humid, and reeked of stale liquor and broken dreams. Echoes of laughter and music boomed from the club, the sound of a world he wasn’t invited to.He leaned against a rack of dusty Merlots, staring at nothing. It had been only a few hours since his mother’s passing, and everything was crumbling. He couldn’t afford the hospital bills, the funeral, or even a quiet moment to grieve. He had nowhere to go and no one left. His stepbrothers had made sure of that. His body still smelled faintly of the alley he slept in last night. His shirt clung to his skin, stained and stiff. His eyes stung from lack of sleep and too many tears.A roar of cheers erupted from the main floor, a distant storm he couldn’t muster the energy to care about. All he want

Jamie couldn’t afford to lose his job—not now. Not when everything else had crumbled around him like an ancient ruin left to the mercy of wind and time. His mother was gone. His home—the only one he had ever known, however cold and cruel—was now a memory erased in a single night. The Reynolds, as vile as they had been, at least gave him a roof to sleep under and two meals a day. That roof was now gone. That allowance of $500, which came with bitterness and humiliation, had vanished along with any hope of financial reprieve.Still reeling from the sting of Ben Reynold’s cruelty, Jamie sprinted through the city’s busy streets, the dried tears on his face cracked by the wind, his mind cluttered with grief. His clothes still smelled faintly of the hospital room where his mother had died. But there was no time to mourn properly. Life in Hollywood never waited for the broken or the poor. It only moved for the rich and powerful, and Jamie knew all too well he was neither.He reached Momentuu

Jamie stepped out of the hospital into the gray morning, his mind spinning with grief, confusion, and a gnawing dread he couldn’t quite place. His mother’s final words played on repeat in his head, and though they should’ve comforted him, they only left him with more questions. “You’re not a nobody… You matter more than anyone else in this world.”He didn’t feel that way now.At the entrance to the hospital, two familiar figures stood waiting: Billy Carson, his best friend since sophomore year, and Stacy Reynold, his stepsister. They rushed to him as soon as they saw his slumped shoulders and red eyes.“Jamie…” Stacy said softly, stepping forward with outstretched arms.He collapsed into her embrace, his body trembling. She held him like a sister should—not bound by blood, but by shared struggle.“I’m so sorry we’re late,” Billy said, voice quiet. “We were trying to finish your final essays and those lab reports. You know, to keep your grades intact. Thought it’d give you more time wi
