Raymond Xavier stretched lazily and glanced at his wardrobe. Today, he would finally claim the car he had been dreaming of. Sliding into a tight black T-shirt that accentuated his toned frame, paired with black pants, sneakers, and a comfortable black hoodie, he felt a surge of anticipation. His private suite was immaculate, equipped with everything a young tycoon could need.
Descending into the lobby of Platinum Business, sunlight glinted off polished floors. Raymond summoned a taxi through his app, leaning casually as his sharp eyes caught every detail of the bustling city. Moments later, the taxi arrived. “Mr. Raymond Xavier? Is the destination confirmed as shown in the app?” the driver asked politely. “Yes, that’s correct,” Raymond replied, sliding the door open. His gaze lingered on the streets before he eased into the seat, the hoodie slipping slightly to reveal a hint of muscular arms. The car glided through the city, weaving gently through thickening traffic. His phone buzzed—an unknown number. It was Vivian, the hotel receptionist. Curiosity piqued, he answered. “Hello?” he said, calm yet attentive. “Good afternoon, Mr. Raymond! Are you busy?” Vivian’s voice carried a soft, fluttering tone, tinged with nervous excitement. “What’s the matter, Vivian? You sound… flustered,” he teased lightly. “Well… the hotel owner wants to meet you. Do you have time today?” “I’m a little tied up at the moment. I’ll probably return this afternoon,” he said casually, a subtle smirk playing at his lips. “I’ll inform the owner, sir,” she replied, a faint blush coloring her cheeks even over the phone. After hanging up, Raymond entered the gleaming showroom. His casual attire only highlighted his confident presence. “Excuse me,” he greeted politely. “May I help you, sir?” the salesgirl asked, her eyes briefly catching the lines of his sharp jaw. “I’m here to buy a BMW,” he said smoothly, voice low and controlled. “Certainly! We have the latest models: M4 Coupe, XM, X5, X6… and more,” she replied. Raymond scanned the lineup briefly. “I’ll take the M4 Coupe. Prepare the contract and invoice,” he instructed, tone leaving no room for hesitation. “Wouldn’t you like to check the interior or test drive first?” she asked, intrigued. “I’ll pass. Just prepare the contract and quote the price,” he said, gaze lingering on her with a faint, confident smile. “Three billion, sir,” she said, slightly flustered. “Round it up. Keep the rest,” he said lightly, as if tossing off a casual favor. “Th… thank you! Card or transfer?” she asked, cheeks flushing. “Card. And expedite the contract—I want to drive it now,” he said, handing over his limitless Black Card. Their fingers brushed as she took it, a flicker of heat passing between them. He swiped the card; anticipation sparked a thrill. “Enter your PIN, sir,” she murmured. [Ding!] Payment successful. “Please provide your ID and take a seat in the waiting area,” she said softly, eyes lingering. Raymond waited, scanning the showroom. Minutes later, she returned with documents and keys. He took them and stepped outside, feeling the power of the new car under his hands. “Time to test my driving skills,” he muttered, sliding into the driver’s seat. The city blurred past. Suddenly, his phone rang—another unknown number. Curiosity won. He pulled over. “Hello?” he said. “Good afternoon. Is this Mr. Raymond Xavier?” asked a crisp, professional female voice. “Yes… who am I speaking with?” “I’m the deputy director at BAC Bank. We need your signature for urgent company stock transfer documents.” Raymond exhaled. “I’m in another city. I’ll attend tomorrow.” “If urgent, meet me at Platinum Business tomorrow,” she instructed. “Alright, we’ll meet in the lobby. Contact me once you arrive,” he replied. A soft chime rang in his ear—the System. [Ding… Mission triggered: Help a lost elderly woman] [Rewards: +10 Strength, +10 Intelligence, 1 Elite House in Harrington Estate] Raymond grinned. “Show me the location, System.” [Location: 200 meters ahead] He spotted her: a frail elderly woman, around sixty-five, sitting on the curb, tears streaking her cheeks. He stepped out, sunlight glinting off his hoodie, his presence taller and more commanding. “Are you alright, ma’am? May I help you?” he asked gently. “Of course, dear,” she replied, dabbing her eyes. “What’s wrong? Why are you upset?” “I got lost… forgot my way home,” she admitted weakly. “Were you alone?” “My granddaughter and I were at the clinic. I got bored waiting and wandered… lost my way,” she admitted. Raymond tapped the System. “Locate her granddaughter.” [Distance: 300 meters. Turn around, follow GPS.] Following the directions, he guided the woman safely. Together, they walked toward the clinic. “Neee… Neeeeek!” a young woman’s voice called out. The elderly woman and Raymond turned. Vivian ran, tears sparkling in her eyes, hugging her grandmother tightly. “Grandma! I was so worried!” “Sorry, dear. I wandered, but this young man helped me,” her grandmother explained. Vivian’s gaze lingered on Raymond, a warmth spreading through her chest. “Raymond! So this is your grandmother?” she asked, cheeks tinged pink. “Yes. Thank you so much. I owe you a treat—don’t refuse,” he said softly, locking eyes with her. “First, let’s check on your grandmother. Is that okay?” he asked, voice low, teasing. “Of course. I’m free,” Vivian replied. They entered the examination room, chatting lightly. “I’ll escort grandma first. Don’t disappear,” she teased, a playful smile on her lips. “Okay,” he said, a soft chuckle escaping him. [Ding… Mission complete: Helping a lost elderly woman] [Rewards: +10 Strength, +10 Intelligence, 1 Elite House in Harrington Estate] Raymond felt energy surge through him. He rose, stretching, craving a quick smoke. “Show status,” he murmured. [Status Panel]: Name: Raymond Xavier Age: 20 Strength: 40/100 Intelligence: 30/100 Skills: Master-level driving, God-level stock and business management, Master-level martial arts, Master-level weapons proficiency Inventory: All personal storage Shop: Accessible Wealth: Unlimited Assets: PT BAC Bank, Platinum Business, 1 Elite House in Harrington Estate Moments later, Vivian and Grandma Arum emerged. “Arr…” Vivian called softly. “Finished?” Raymond asked. “Just now. I thought you disappeared,” she said, pouting. Raymond chuckled. “Hehe… I was just waiting here for a smoke.” “Hmm… catch this,” she said, tossing her car keys. “Tap…” Before he could respond, she asked, “Can you drive?” He nodded, walking over to open the car door for Grandma Arum. “Where to?” he asked. “My place,” Vivian replied, giving the address in Harrington Estate. Half an hour later, they arrived. “Come in, dear… feel at home,” Grandma Arum said, smiling warmly. “Okay, Grandma. I’ll come in while ‘dating’ your granddaughter,” Raymond joked, sending a mischievous glance at Vivian, who blushed deeply. They settled on the sofa. Raymond asked, “So this is your family home?” “Yes, Raymond,” Vivian replied softly. “Then why the boarding house?” “It’s where I clear my mind. Just a change of scenery,” she explained. “Hmmm, no wonder I rarely see you there,” he observed, eyes lingering on her subtle gestures. “Don’t call me ‘sister’—we’re only two years apart,” she said, cheeks warm. “Alright,” he replied, smiling. “Let’s have lunch,” Vivian suggested, eyes sparkling. Sunlight streamed across the table, painting the room golden as they enjoyed a calm, warm meal together. After lunch: “Thanks for the meal. I’ll head back now,” Raymond said. “I should thank you. Want me to escort you?” “No, I ordered a taxi. It’s outside,” he replied. A few steps later, a sudden, soft kiss landed on his right cheek. Vivian spun and ran, leaving him stunned, heart racing. “What… does that mean? A sign of affection?” he thought. He climbed into the taxi, a wry smile tugging at his lips, already anticipating the next challenge the day would bring.Latest Chapter
Chapter 22 – The Night That Watches
At the underground headquarters of the Sanborn Clan, tension thickened the air like smoke. Richard Sanborn sat on a massive leather chair, his expression calm yet seething with fury. Around him, his men kept their heads lowered, waiting for the storm to break.“Why hasn’t there been any news?” Richard’s voice was deep and sharp. “My son is crippled—and you still haven’t found that boy and his friends?”One of his men, pale and trembling, lifted his head only to bow again. “Forgive us, Master. Their phones are deactivated. All traces are gone.”Richard’s fist slammed onto the table. “Then contact Sinagar Permana. Tell him to take the girl—Adrianna Vale. Lure the boy out. And don’t you dare come back without that item.”“Yes, Master,” the man stammered, rising quickly and hurrying out of the room.He reached the secure line, dialing a number known only to Sanborn’s inner circle. On the other end, a rough voice answered—Jonah Kade, the field commander running their suburban operations.“
Chapter 21 – From Shadows to Salvation
After speaking with her father, Adrianna Vale decided to head to campus. The morning sun glinted off her residence’s marble floors as she adjusted her bag, her mind still lingering on the brief conversation with her father.“Do you want to come with me to campus?” Raymond Xavier asked, glancing at Adrianna, Bella, and Anita.“Hmmm… I don’t think so, darling. We’re planning to shop at Crimson Plaza,” Adrianna replied softly, followed by nods from Anita and Bella. Their eyes sparkled mischievously, a contrast to Raymond’s calm demeanor.“Alright, then I’ll go ahead,” Raymond said, smiling warmly.Anita stepped closer, followed by Adrianna and Bella, their hands brushing against Raymond’s as they leaned in. One by one, they kissed him on the lips, a tender but playful ritual that had become their signature.“Be careful, darling. Don’t make any of the female students swoon, okay?” Anita warned with mock seriousness.“I can’t promise that,” Raymond chuckled, the corners of his eyes crinkli
Chapter 20 – Journey to the Alexander Residence
After finishing breakfast together, Andrea, Anita, Bella, Simon, Evan, and Raymond prepared to escort Andrea home, as she planned to visit her father.Suddenly, Raymond’s phone vibrated. It was a call from an unknown number.“Hello,” Raymond answered calmly.“Good morning, Mr. Raymond. Sorry to bother you. This is Fernando, Director of Liam Hospitals Group. I wanted to inform you when you could come to the hospital to sign the ownership transfer documents,” Fernando said politely.“I’ll be there at 1:00 PM, Mr. Fernando,” Raymond replied casually.“Very well, Mr. Raymond. We’ll be expecting you,” Fernando responded.“Alright,” Raymond hung up.Andrea, curious about the conversation, asked, “Who was that, dear?”“The Director of Liam Hospitals Group,” Raymond replied.“Is someone sick?” Andrea inquired.“No, they just requested my presence,” Raymond explained. “Oh, by the way, about VBTU, when can I come to the campus to sign the stock transfer documents?”“I will arrive around 11:00 A
Chapter 19 – The Return of the Valemont Phantom
The black car came to a stop right in front of Valemont Mansion 1. Raymond Xavier, Simon Yates, and several Alexander family bodyguards stepped out. The night air was crisp, yet the mansion’s grounds seemed heated, thick with tension left over from last night’s club incident.Raymond led the way, followed by Andrea Alexander, Bella Grey, Anita Cole, and Lucas Ward. Simon held a tablet, scanning a quick security report.“Simon… did you forget something?” Raymond asked softly, his tone teasing.Simon frowned. “I don’t think so, Boss… not that I remember.”Raymond’s eyes narrowed, then a chuckle escaped him. “The target.”Simon slapped his forehead in embarrassment. “Ah, right! Sorry, Boss. What should we do with him?”“Take him to the basement. I’ll be waiting there.”Simon nodded toward Lucas. “Come on, help me carry him.”Together, they went back to the car to fetch the target—a man now completely powerless in the trunk.Raymond exhaled, then glanced at the three women standing before
Chapter 18 – Battle at the Crimson Club
The rhythm of the night pulsed through the heart of Valemont City, where the neon lights from the Crimson District flickered like warning signals in the mist. From the outside, the Crimson Club looked like any other luxurious nightclub—red velvet walls, golden lamps, and the faint scent of expensive liquor. But for those who knew, it was something else entirely—a battleground behind the façade of glamor.Inside, Raymond Xavier moved like a shadow through the crowded dance floor. The bass thumped hard enough to shake the glasses, bodies pressed against one another, and laughter echoed, covering the darker whispers hidden beneath the music. His eyes, sharp and cold, scanned every corner from behind the dark glass of his drink.He wasn’t here for pleasure. Not tonight.Raymond’s target was clear—the private VVIP Lounge on the second floor. That’s where Dorian Cartello, son of the infamous underworld figure Sanjay Cartello, usually held court with his entourage.“System,” Raymond muttered
Chapter 17 – Test of Strength
Ray now stood at the back of the mansion, flanked by Simon, Ethan, Anita, and Bella. He was determined to test the combat abilities of the former intelligence agents.“I want all of you to fight me with full power. No holding back, no pity,” Ray said firmly, facing them.“All right, if that’s what you want. But be prepared to end up in the hospital,” Simon replied with a sly smile.“Come at me, all four of you. Don’t be afraid to send me to the hospital—or even to the grave,” Ray said casually.“I alone am enough to take you on. Don’t underestimate me, kid,” Simon countered.“Fine then. Come on, attack me!” Ray challenged.“All right, don’t regret it,” Simon said, launching an attack with incredible speed.Swush! Bugh! Bugh!Simon unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks. Ray calmly blocked them, then struck back toward Simon’s stomach, sending him flying backward.Brakkk!“You’re good. You can
