Romeo watched Orbit Tower with a complicated gaze. This was an old building built by the Walsh family 17 years ago because of his mother's wish. It had been quite a while since he had visited Orbit Tower, and it was not what he remembered last time. 

Orbit Tower was at the top of this building, while at the bottom of Orbit Tower was a high-end luxury hotel with 7 stars. Only people with unlimited wealth could stay in this place. The cheapest room could even buy a car. 

Behind Romeo, Andrew stared at the young man's back. He allowed his young master to reminisce briefly before entering the Orbit Tower. 

Romeo closed his eyes momentarily, a stream of memories replaying in his head. Then he opened his eyes and exhaled softly. He turned his head slightly to Andrew. "Let's go in," he said. 

Andrew nodded. "Come, Young Master." 

The two entered the building. Romeo's dull appearance made the few people who passed by them look at Romeo with strange looks. Moreover, Andrew dressed better and walked behind him like a servant. 

Andrew passed the receptionist and immediately took Romeo to the waiting room. Romeo noticed every detail of this place.

"Young Master, as I said, this place is neglected," Andrew said fearfully. He was worried that this change would anger Romeo

"Andrew, why is this place so different? I expected the changes, but didn't expect the place to change in such a way," Romeo said when this place was completely different from the Orbit Tower, he remembered. 

Andrew invited Romeo to sit down, but Romeo did not refuse and sat on the sofa. "It hasn't been the Walsh family taking care of this building, so I apologise if this is no longer to your taste." 

"Fix everything, I don't like this place now," Romeo ordered coldly. 

Andrew nodded and got up. He knew his master's temper was rising, so he hurriedly excused himself. "Yes, young master. I'll take care of it right now." 

The bodyguard figure left, leaving Romeo alone in the waiting room. 

Meanwhile, as soon as Andrew left, Romeo clenched his fists. A wave of anger exploded in his chest. He was furious when he discovered his father allowed others to touch Orbit Tower. This place was built based on his mother's wishes, and he didn't expect his father to allow others to touch his mother's things. 

He wanted to vent his anger by destroying this place but decided against it. Romeo's anger subsided a little when he remembered that Andrew was taking care of this matter and would return soon. 

The sound of clapping echoed throughout the room. A voice with a condescending tone called Romeo's name. "Oh, trash, Romeo. I didn't expect to see you in this place." 

Romeo was so familiar with this voice. The young man who had just called him was Morgan, who really liked to bully him. He gave him a quick glance and went back to ignoring him. He picked up the men's magazine on the glass table and read it. 

Morgan is the son of one of the wealthy families in this city. Since childhood, he has used a silver spoon to eat, which was genuinely followed by luck. This made him grow up to be a very haughty figure and disrespectful to people who were poorer than him.

A few years ago, Morgan deliberately pushed Romeo into the pool at a pool party. Everyone laughed at him, and no one helped Romeo. From then on, people made fun of him for that incident. 

 When Romeo ignores him, he is furious. 

"You bastard! You dare ignore me?" Morgan said. He strolled up to Romeo.  A sardonic smile spread across Morgan's face. Seeing how shabby the clothes on Romeo's body were, he had a contemptuous expression. His anger at being ignored instantly subsided. "Are you that brave or shameless? Wearing shabby clothes like this into my hotel." 

Romeo raised his face. He threw the magazine he was holding onto the table. His gaze flicked to Morgan's face, and he looked down, noticing his messy clothes. Morgan's words were valid. He seemed very dirty. 

He hadn't had a chance to shower yet, and the beating Tyler and his friends had given him made his look so messed up. He looked back at Morgan and smiled wryly. His appearance could not be used as an excuse to bother him. "Is there a rule that you must be presentable to enter the hotel?" 

Morgan put one hand in his pants pocket. This pose made him look haughty and powerful, but Romeo was unaffected. "Poor and shameless, that sentence fits your name perfectly," Morgan said, insulted. "This is a seven-star hotel. Only classy people are in this place." 

Romeo grinned. "Repeat your last sentence again." 

"Are you deaf?" Morgan was insulting, but he actually repeated his sentence. "Only classy people are in this place." 

"You're the one who said if only classy people are in this place, look, I'm also there. I also belong to it." Romeo smiled victoriously. 

"You? Classy people?" Morgan snorted in annoyance. "Only in dreams! You're what I consider an anomaly." 

Romeo turned his face away and smiled contemptuously. "You unstable bastard!" 

"You!" snapped Morgan. 

Romeo leaned on the sofa, ignoring Morgan, who was staring at him with a sharp gaze. 

"How insolent! Didn't your parents teach you any manners?" screeched Morgan. He really felt humiliated to be ignored by a poor man like Romeo.

Romeo's expression hardened when Morgan insulted his parents. Morgan realised it and smiled sarcastically. "Do your parents know if their son is sneaking around in a seven-star hotel?"

"Who said I was sneaking around?" Romeo said. "I've been to this place many times." 

 "Then you should apply for a job here. I'll make sure you get a suitable position." Morgan grinned. "That is... as a toilet cleaner." 

"Wow... you're asking me to be a toilet cleaner?" Romeo chuckled. "Looks like you don't know me very well yet." 

"Of course I do. I understand the character of a poor person like you very well," Morgan said. "You definitely came to this place just to be stylish, right? Let's be honest." 

Romeo pressed his nose and waved his hand in front of his face. "Shut your mouth. Your words stink like carrion!" 

"Unlucky bum!" scolded Morgan. 

"Scram before you regret it." Romeo stared dumbly at Morgan. "I'm waiting for someone. Don't piss me off, or you'll be very sorry." 

"What authority do you have over me? I am the heir to this hotel. You have no right to say anything here!" Morgan shouted, his voice echoing. 

Morgan advanced and attacked Romeo. Romeo got up and caught Morgan's fist with ease. 

"Argh!"

    It didn’t take long for Dalton to lose consciousness, he simply couldn’t handle someone this powerful. This was a nightmare he had never imagined, and it marked his defeat.His once-arrogant face was now replaced with one that looked utterly weak.“Pathetic,” Romeo commented, his tone filled with disdain. He had thought this man might be a worthy opponent because of his status, but he wasn’t strong at all.Romeo dragged him along as he went to greet another guest who had just arrived. From where he stood, he could see a ship approaching, with Andrew standing at its bow. The man quickly bowed before Romeo.“Master,” Andrew said, his expression puzzled as he noticed the man Romeo was dragging.Romeo tossed the unconscious man toward Andrew. “I’ll interrogate him.”Upon hearing Romeo’s words, Andrew immediately understood his master’s intent. He nodded and ordered the others to take the man away.Andrew then walked beside Romeo, quietly observing his young master.“I didn’t realize Fath

    The room felt so cold. Romeo could see that many preparations were being made here, as they had to act quickly to obtain some fresh organs and make use of the others.The ship began to move, something Romeo actually liked. This was a game that would eventually lead them to defeat, since they wouldn’t be able to receive any help the farther they got from land.Several men in green uniforms were walking around, their breath coming out in harsh puffs.“Ah, honestly, I’m too lazy to do this. I wanted to take a vacation today.”“Of course you can’t. Mr. Dalton would be furious with you.”The man who had spoken first let out a long sigh. He rubbed his forehead, his expression growing more weary.That was the reason he came here, otherwise, he’d be in deep trouble and face even worse consequences.It would be extremely dangerous for him, especially since Dalton had people who could hunt them down and deliver a very painful death.A few others were already in the room; they nodded and had bro

    The southern part of Evarlan Island—the place where Romeo was now.Carl’s Beach Club, a well-known luxury venue. Even if you were the child of a wealthy family, entry wasn’t easy. There were many requirements to meet.Getting an invitation to this club was like finding a golden ticket. It wasn’t just a gathering place for the rich, but also for those who hid their identities—whether to avoid being targeted or for other reasons.No one dared approach this area unless they had the guts and the skills to back it up. At least 30 meters from every side of the club, the surroundings were completely empty, eerily quiet.“I never thought I’d be here.” A man walking past Romeo spoke to his friend.There were several conversations happening around him, snippets of chatter reaching his ears. But Romeo remained focused on his now-empty glass. His father had told him to relax and have fun—something he didn’t quite understand. So, he took this as an opportunity to try anything that seemed interesti

    Romeo saw her but ignored her, continuing to walk away. Violet didn’t give up and walked beside him."It seems that you started that bet because of me," Violet said confidently.She knew that Justin had been after her for a long time, but she never liked him. To her, he wasn’t a man with potential and didn’t match her type. He wasn’t attractive enough, though she had taken advantage of him several times.That wasn’t enough."No one is fighting over you," Romeo replied curtly as he checked a message on his phone."Don’t be shy. I already know that man desires me—and so do you." Violet twirled a strand of her hair repeatedly.From the moment she saw Romeo, she was interested in him. He was handsome and far wealthier than Justin. To her, this was a jackpot—an opportunity to live comfortably."I’ll allow you to date me," she declared with confidence, thinking about the things she could gain from him.She was also intrigued by Romeo’s villa. It must be luxurious, and she could show it off

    Everyone was stunned by Romeo’s actions. The power behind his strike was immense, sending the ball crashing down near Justin’s position. A long silence followed as they all stared at the ball, which seemed to emit a faint wisp of smoke.Justin’s gaze sharpened. He couldn't believe what had just happened, and his mind was already set on doing something ruthless to Romeo."Wow, you didn’t score any points because you crossed the line," he said with a smirk.Justin was convinced that this spoiled man had never played volleyball before and didn’t know the rules well. With that in mind, he thought winning would be easy.But then, as his eyes accidentally met Violet’s, Romeo’s face lit up with excitement, and he quickly waved at her. It was clear he had just noticed the woman he liked."I did that on purpose. It was a warning."Hearing Romeo’s words, Justin turned back to him, while the others began whispering among themselves."What’s with that guy?""Isn’t he just acting arrogant because

    His head throbbed with pain, and he clutched it repeatedly, exhaling over and over again.Blinking several times, he looked around, only to find himself surrounded by his friends. The atmosphere felt unbearably uncomfortable for him."Ah! W-what is happening!?" he shouted, utterly shocked by the situation.His gaze flickered toward the woman he liked, who was staring at him. His face turned red, and he quickly stood up. Without hesitation, Justin hurried away from the scene, his friends immediately following behind him."Justin! Wait for us!""Justin, didn't you hear what we were saying?""Justin!"His friends called out loudly, their voices only making Justin clench his fists tighter.Once he felt he had put enough distance between them, Justin finally stopped walking and turned to face his friends."Damn it! That guy must have knocked me out!" he growled, clenching his fists even tighter.He hadn't even realized how Romeo had attacked him. In fact, Justin was someone who exercised r
