Everyone turned their attention to the figure that had just appeared. The figure walked quickly towards them. The aura he had made the security guards spontaneously open the way for him. 

Morgan also noticed the figure. He had never seen the man before so he thought that maybe the figure knew Romeo. 

Sure enough. The figure approached Romeo and seemed so polite to him. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" 

Romeo shook his head slowly. "As long as I don't give permission, no one can touch me." 

The figure nodded and looked relieved. "I'm sorry that I took too long."

"No problem." 

"You should stay away from her. He could hurt you like he hurt me." Morgan pointed at his neck, which was reddened by Romeo's strangulation. The man in front of him looked powerful; he didn't want to add unnecessary trouble, so he dumped everything on Romeo. "He's a punk who wants to mess up this place." 

"Troublemaker?" Andrew frowned. 

Morgan nodded. "He's a poor student who likes to cause trouble. Stay away from him before you catch the poor virus from him." 

Hearing that, Andrew's face changed drastically. His gaze became cold. "Do you know who that troublemaking punk is?" 

Morgan lightly pointed at Romeo, and that made Andrew even angrier. He gave Morgan a cold stare and said, "No. You're that guy. You're that guy. You're that troublemaking asshole!" 

 Andrew moved closer to Morgan. When the distance between them was only a step, he stopped and pointed at Morgan's chest. "Behave yourself. Don't make me angry, or your father won't even be able to save you." 

"Asshole!" Morgan cursed. He violently pushed Andrew's chest. However, Andrew was not a weak man. He immediately brushed off Morgan's hand and pushed Morgan away. Getting such treatment, Morgan became even angrier. "How dare you!" 

"What? You dare?" Andrew didn't look the least bit scared. 

Morgan looked at Andrew arrogantly. He was the master of this place. He must not lose his pride. "Calves are never afraid of tigers." 

Andrew smiled coldly. "A proverb that suits you perfectly." 

"Son of a bitch!" Morgan glared. "That proverb is for you, fool!" 

"Brat, who are you yelling stupid at, huh?" There was an angry male voice. "Apologize now!" 

Morgan turned his head and was surprised when his father came. He did not defend him but instead joined in the cursing. 

"Dad? What are you doing here?" asked Morgan in confusion. 

"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I said?" Morgan's father looked even angrier and approached his son in a huff. "Hurry up and apologise!" 

Morgan frowned. "Why do I have to apologise? Did I do something wrong?" 

"Of course you're guilty! Don't you know who you've been cursing at?" Morgan's father gritted his teeth. 

Morgan shook his head. "Who is he? Is he the son of your friend? Or is he someone you want to work with? If so, don't cooperate with a fool like him." 

"Idiot! You really are an idiot. Don't you know that he owns the orbit tower?" 

Morgan was like being electrocuted by a high voltage. His body could not move for some time. When he came to his senses, he could only shake his head, not believing what his father had said.

"No way! The owner of the orbital tower is dead! Now, our family is the owner of this building." Morgan didn't show the slightest fear. "This building has been abandoned for a long time, and our family revived it. Why would he suddenly come and claim to be the owner of this place? On what basis?" 

Morgan's father looked terrified at his son's words. He immediately came forward and prevented his son from speaking further. "Of course, because he owns this place!" 

Morgan's father turned his gaze to Andrew, his previously angry gaze now friendly. "Sir, please forgive my son. He's still young and has much to learn. It's just a misunderstanding." 

"Dad, what are you doing?" Morgan shouted. He couldn't accept that his father had to bow to someone else. "You own this place now. No one can make you like that!" 

Morgan's father gave his son a sharp look. 

Snap!

Only a slap could shut Morgan up. 

On the other hand, Morgan also looked incredulous at what he had just experienced. He touched his cheek, which felt hot. "Dad... why did you slap me? Didn't I say the right thing?" 

"Shut up, you idiot, shut up, or you'll die!" Morgan's father shouted. 

Meanwhile, Andrew continued to frown time after time. For now, he could already come to a conclusion. A few years ago, after Mrs. Romeo's death, Romeo's father no longer wanted to take care of this place, so Andrew gave the responsibility of management to the Morgan family for a considerable reward. However, he never transferred the ownership of the place to anyone else. Orbit Tower still belongs to the Romeo family. 

Unexpectedly, his kindness was abused like this. 

"I never let go of this building. I only asked you to take care of it. I even gave you a big reward for doing this." Andrew looked deeply at Morgan's father. "Have you ever heard that greed leads to disaster?" 

Father Morgan's body shook with fear. He immediately bowed in front of Andrew. "Sir, please forgive us. We won't do it again." 

Andrew doesn't answer because he sees that Romeo seems disturbed by Father Morgan's words. 

Meanwhile, Romeo was still sitting quietly in his place. He was reluctant to prolong this matter. Since his mother's departure, this building had been neglected. If there had been no Morgan family to take care of it, perhaps it would have become a wholly abandoned place. 

Romeo looked at Morgan's father and said, "I'm not in the mood for more business. I'll forgive you and give you one more chance." 

"Rancid bastard, who are you to dare say such a thing to me?" shouted Morgan, offended by Romeo's words. 

"Shut up! Who asked you to speak?!" screeched Morgan's father. "One more sentence and I'll break your legs!" 

Romeo's mood actually wasn't too bad. However, what Morgan said offended him. He looked at Morgan's father coldly. 

"Do you want to take care of the orbital tower longer?" asked Romeo. 

Morgan's father looked at Romeo with confusion. At first, he thought that Andrew was the owner of Orbit Tower. However, he just realised the young man before him was the actual owner. He quickly nodded, worried that Romeo would change his mind. "Yes, Young Master." 

Romeo nodded. "Then, have your son kowtow and apologise to me. Also, he must never set foot in Orbit Tower again forever."

"No way! I'm not willing to bow down at the feet of a hobo like him!" shouted Morgan. He would never want to bow down at the feet of a hobo like Romeo because it hurt his pride so much. 

Morgan's father, hearing this, lost his temper. He shouted with a horrified expression. "Bow down quickly or die!"

    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

    “You still haven’t found my son?”A heavy, oppressive voice rang out, followed by the sharp sound of a cane striking the floor.His gaze was piercing, his hardened face terrifying to everyone in the room.“We haven’t found any traces of the young master, Lord Baxton.”They spoke with fear. The search had gone on for three days, yet the one they sought was nowhere to be found.“How is that possible?! You need to search harder than this!”Baxton’s face turned red with fury. Amman was a strong child—destined to be the heir of the Hugnes family. His fists clenched tightly as frustration burned within him.“Something must have happened. Amman wouldn’t just vanish. There must be an enemy behind this.”His blood boiled. If anything had happened to his son, he wouldn’t hold back. If Amman was hurt—he would do whatever it took to make those responsible pay.“I only heard that Young Master Amman intended to visit Lord Taylor, Lord Baxton.”One of the black-clad men in front of him finally spoke

    Romeo’s instincts immediately told him that this man was no ordinary person. His attention was quickly drawn to him, even more so than to the so-called top graduate who had been trying to challenge him.The man moved slowly toward Romeo.“I came here by coincidence… and because I was reminded of a foolish brother.”The way he spoke piqued Romeo’s curiosity. There were many people who had clashed with him in the past.“Now I understand why he seemed so terrified.”A faint smirk crossed the man’s face, laced with malicious intent. Being in this place was something Romeo disliked—he would attract too much attention, which was far from an ideal situation.As Romeo took a step forward, the man did the same. Two skilled fighters, both reading each other’s intentions without words.“We need to talk.”But just as Romeo spoke, the man halted his steps and glanced at a nearby building—one currently under renovation, rarely visited by anyone. It was indeed a suitable place.Both of them headed t
