Marvin and his mother had relocated to Mr Fredrick's family home after they were sent parking from the Richmond estate.

At the moment, he and his mom had nothing but a few thousand dollars in the bank, however Mrs Richmond's hopes were on the final court order to make sure that Mr Richmond had paid the hundred thousand dollars pre nuptial agreement.

Now that all that was not forthcoming, both Marvin and his mother were totally dependant on Mr Fredrick and his wife who was a nurse.

To keep himself busy, Marvin worked at Mr Fredrick's restaurant as a dishwasher.

He had been working in the restaurant for two weeks now, but today was going to be very different.

Marvin was done washing the first set of plates that morning and stepped out to get breakfast of toasted bread and some cheeseburger when he bumped into Braun Velcan.

"Hey, who do we have here?" Said a surprised Braun Velcan.

"Good day old friend, longtime no see, how are you?" Marvin greeted with a smile, stretching his hand ou

  • MINDFALL

    Jayden narrowed his eyes as the secretary stood before him, panting like she had run all the way from the lower floors.He stepped around his desk. "What is it? Why do you look like that?"The young woman pressed a hand to her chest. "Sir… there’s a big problem."Jayden’s eyebrows furrowed. A sharp sense of dread hit his stomach. "What problem?"She looked up, her voice was shaking. "The staff… they’re leaving. Many of them. Right now."Jayden blinked. "What?" he asked, clearly shocked. "What do you mean?""I mean—" she said, breath catching, "they just stood up and started walking out of their duty posts. No permission. No orders. They just… left. Like something pulled them away.""That doesn’t make any sense," Jayden muttered. "Why would they do that?""The Chief Production Officer reported it to me just a few minutes ago," she said. "He’s an Orion too. He seemed confused—frustrated. He left to go down there himself and try to settle things."Jayden didn’t wait. He brushed past the

  • UNSEALED AND UNWATCHED

    Jayden sat behind the large black desk in the executive office, the sealed folder from Benny was still resting beside his hand. The city skyline stretched outside the wide glass windows behind him.He leaned back in the tall chair, his thoughts were still spinning from the news. CEO. He never imagined this. Not now. Not like this.But what could he do other than adjust so he could mentally fit into this new role he found himself?His desk phone lit up, buzzing once.Jayden pressed the speaker button. “Yes?”“Mr. Cole,” the assistant’s voice came through, polite and quick, “you have a scheduled call with Supervisor Malric Kendo from Jebbah. He’s on the line.”Jayden sat up straighter. “Put him through.”There was a brief click, then a new voice filled the room.“Jayden, my friend!” Malric’s voice was smooth and cheerful, with a thick Jebban accent. Malric was of dual citizenship. His father was of the federation, an Orion in fact, while his mother was a Jebban. “Congratulations on the

  • ACTING CEO

    Jayden Cole drove through the heart of the city, eyes focused, hands firm on the wheel. The talk with Carl still echoed in his head. It confirmed what he had feared for a long time—the attacks, the sabotage, the court rulings—it wasn’t bad luck. It was a plan. A silent war.The tall glass tower of Orion Dynamics soon came into view. It stood high, shining under the morning sun. Jayden parked in the private lot, stepped out of his black car, and straightened his jacket. His boots clicked against the clean pavement as he walked to the front doors.Inside, the lobby buzzed with movement. Staff in suits hurried past with coffee, tablets, and paperwork. The scent of polish and new fabric hung in the air. A soft voice came from the reception desk.“Welcome, Mr. Cole. Please scan your ID.”Jayden reached into his jacket and pulled out a small silver card. He tapped it against the scanner. A soft beep. Green light.“Thank you,” the receptionist said with a polite smile. “You may proceed.

  • THE PATTERN

    Jayden’s fingers tightened slightly on the steering wheel. The road ahead was still calm, but inside his mind, thoughts moved like quiet thunder.“The pattern, Carl,” Jayden said slowly, “is that the same people keep getting attacked. Over and over. You. Me. Franchise connected to the Bowen family. Franchise connected to the Orions. And you ever notice who doesn’t get touched?”Carl was silent, listening.Jayden went on, “The Khybers, Vincent Arceneaux and his family, others like them... they never mess with the Velcan family. Or the Grigori family. Or the Richmonds. Or the Zyphers. Why is that?”Carl gave a short, nervous laugh. “Well, I mean... maybe it’s just coincidence. Or maybe those families are just too powerful to mess with.”Jayden let that sit for a moment before answering. “Too powerful? No, Carl. Orion Dynamics has been around just as long. Your own business empire moves more tech and energy parts than the Grigoris ever did. And Marvin Richmond—when he was alive—he had mo

  • A SUPPRESSED TRUTH

    Three days.Three days had passed since Vincent Arceneaux, the mind-bending villain, had crumbled to the floor of his grand, expensive office. Three days since Jayden Cole, using his powerful Synopticore abilities, had forced Vincent to give back the money he’d stolen from David Chen. Three days since Jayden had delivered his own version of justice.Now, the morning sun was just starting to peek over the tall buildings of Westwood. Its golden rays painted the sky in soft oranges and pinks, making the city look peaceful and quiet. But beneath that calm surface, things were always moving, always changing. And Jayden Cole was secretly one of the biggest changes in Westwood.He was driving his sleek, dark car down a wide, smooth road. The engine hummed softly, a low, steady sound that matched the quiet hum inside Jayden. He felt good. Not just happy, but calm and centered. The air coming through the open window was cool and fresh. It was a welcome breeze after the intense days he’d

  • THE MASTER BECOMES THE PUPPET

    Vincent Arceneaux felt the cold, hard floor beneath his knees. The confirmation on the phone screen burned into his eyes, a bright, cruel light. Ten trillion dollars. Gone. Just like that. His body felt like a statue made of heavy stone, unmoving, even though his insides were screaming. He couldn't move his arms, couldn't clench his fists against what looked unfairness to him even though he knew that he was the villain here. Jayden’s power held him tight, like invisible ropes made of pure thought.His pride, once so big and strong, felt like a pile of ashes, scattered by a sudden wind. He, Vincent Arceneaux, the self proclaimed master of minds, the one who pulled strings and made people dance to his tune, was now the puppet. He was the one dancing, forced to give up a significant amount of what he had stolen. The shame was a bitter taste in his mouth, worse than any defeat he had ever known. He had always been in control, always the one with the upper hand. Now, he was nothing.
