Calvin stood up, surveying his wardrobe for the perfect suit to wear to the grand opening. He selected a sleek, tailored dark blue suit that exuded both sophistication and subtle authority. After carefully dressing, he adjusted his tie, ensuring that every detail was impeccable. The reflection staring back at him in the mirror was one of determination and resolve.

Despite his outward composure, Calvin felt a knot of reluctance tightening in his stomach. He had little desire to attend the event, but he had another, more pressing reason to be there—a purpose that transcended mere social obligations. Tonight, he needed to uncover certain truths and leverage his newly enhanced abilities.

Moments later, fully prepared, Calvin grabbed his car keys from the dresser. As he exited his room, Lizzie was waiting in the hallway, her eyes filled with concern.

"Calvin," she said softly, "are you sure you don't want me to come with you? I can help, or at least keep you company."

Calvin gave her a rea

    Suddenly, a commanding voice cut through the hum of conversation. "Alana! I heard from Mother that you invited this man. Have you lost your mind?"Calvin turned to see James Perry, Alana's older brother, striding towards them. His face was flushed with anger, his eyes flashing with contempt. "Calvin is nothing but a beggar, even if he's dressed well now. Maybe he's found another woman to take advantage of. Oh, I heard it's Christina Johnson, isn't it? Calvin is very good at finding wealthy women."Calvin's jaw tightened, and he stepped forward, his voice calm but firm. "James, don't speak so recklessly."James sneered, looking Calvin up and down with disdain. "Why? Afraid the truth will come out? You don't belong here, Calvin. You never did."Alana stepped between them, her voice strained with frustration. "James, stop it. I invited Calvin because he deserves to be here. This is a celebration, not a place for petty insults."James raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Wo

    As they walked through the grand, elegantly decorated hall, Alana glanced at Calvin, her expression apologetic. The ambient light from the chandeliers cast a soft glow on her face, highlighting the worry lines etched on her forehead. "I'm really sorry about that. You already know how they are," she said, her voice tinged with regret.Calvin gave her a reassuring smile, though his eyes held a hint of old pain. "They are just like you, before our divorce."Alana winced slightly, her eyes reflecting a mix of guilt and sorrow. "Calvin…"“I’m just saying,” Calvin replied, his tone gentle but firm. He didn’t want to reopen old wounds, but the truth was unavoidable.They continued walking and soon reached a group of well-dressed individuals, their attire reflecting the opulence of the event. The group was engrossed in an animated discussion about the latest advancements in pharmaceuticals. The air was filled with a sense of importance and innovation, and the attendees’ conversations were pun

    Alana's sigh seemed to echo through the room, the weight of her disappointment almost tangible in the air. "So, you're really not willing to forgive me, Calvin?"Calvin's jaw clenched, his eyes hardening with resolve. "I'm tired of these questions, Alana. You've been a part of my past, and that's where you'll stay. Seeking forgiveness or offering it—it's all irrelevant now. I want to retrieve my belongings and move on. That's all I want from you, Alana."Alana's shoulders slumped, her heart sinking with each word from Calvin's lips. She had held onto a sliver of hope that perhaps Calvin's presence here might signify a chance at reconciliation, but his words shattered that hope like fragile glass.Feeling a pang of remorse at the pain he could see in Alana's eyes, Calvin softened slightly. "Could you please just show me where my belongings are? That's all I'm asking."Alana nodded silently, her gaze fixed on the floor as if unable to meet Calvin's eyes. "Fine, after the opening ceremon

    James's voice echoed through the grand hall, each word dripping with self-importance as he spun his narrative of tireless labor and unwavering commitment. His gestures were grandiose, punctuating his anecdotes with sweeping gestures that captivated the audience's attention."And so, my dear guests," James declared, his tone booming with confidence, "I stand before you today as a testament to the power of determination and perseverance. For it is through sheer hard work and unyielding dedication that we have achieved the remarkable success we celebrate here tonight."The audience hung on his every word, their applause thunderous in response to James's self-congratulatory rhetoric. They were enthralled by his charisma, swept up in the aura of success that surrounded him."I cannot overstate the countless hours spent in the pursuit of excellence," James continued, his voice ringing with fervor. "Nights turned into days, and days into weeks, as I labored tirelessly in the pursuit of innov

    Calvin, still gripping the box tightly, turned to Alana with a steely determination in his eyes. "I'll leave after a cocktail," he stated, his voice resolute.Alana nodded, her expression a mixture of relief and lingering sadness. "Alright then, let's have a cocktail together," she agreed, gesturing for Calvin to follow her back to the party. The box he carried was small, holding the essentials he had left behind, and its weight was more symbolic than physical — a reminder of all he had lost and now reclaimed.As they re-entered the bustling party, the atmosphere was vibrant and celebratory. The crowd was engrossed in the next part of the event: a video presentation showcasing the remarkable progress of Perry Pharmaceuticals. The large screen displayed a sleek company profile, highlighting the various best-selling products that had propelled the company to the forefront of the pharmaceutical industry.Calvin's gaze hardened as he recognized several products on the screen — products he

    James shouted once more, his voice breaking with desperation, "Someone turn off that video, now!"The multimedia team was in disarray, frantically attempting to resolve the situation. One of the technicians realized that the flash drive containing the original company profile video had been replaced with another. They tried to remove it, but the flash drive wouldn’t budge. It was securely controlled by Calvin from a distance, adding to their confusion and frustration. Meanwhile, the incriminating video continued to play, exposing the truth layer by layer.Calvin's voice filled the room again, calm yet firm. "James, several previous products have already been falsely claimed by you. Can't this one, at least, be recognized as my work?"The video showed Calvin and James in the lab, the tension palpable. James's voice dripped with contempt. "Calvin, you've been given enough mercy by the Perry family by letting you leech off us. So you'd better stay quiet, or else Alana will divorce you."

    Several security officers approached Calvin, but Alana quickly intervened, her voice ringing out with authority, "Wait, everyone!"All eyes turned to Alana, now the focal point of the gathering. She hesitated for a moment, caught between the desire to protect her family's reputation and the need to support Calvin, who had been wronged. Her conflicting emotions were clear, but she knew she had to take a stand.Taking a deep breath, Alana addressed the crowd, her voice steady but filled with underlying tension. "Regardless of who created the medicines, the person responsible will receive the appropriate recognition and reward. However, we will handle this matter separately from tonight's event. Let us not lose sight of the purpose of this gathering—the inauguration of our new factory. So, please, let’s put an end to this chaos."The murmurs and whispers among the guests gradually subsided, though the atmosphere remained charged with curiosity and uncertainty. Security guards continued t

    When Calvin returned home, he found Lizzie sitting on the couch, her eyes glued to the television. The flickering light from the screen illuminated her face, which was filled with a mixture of surprise and curiosity. She turned her head sharply as Calvin entered the room, her eyes widening."Calvin, what did you do at the party just now?" Lizzie's voice was a mix of concern and intrigue.Calvin furrowed his brow, feeling a sense of dread. "Why? What happened?"Lizzie pointed at the television, her finger trembling slightly. "Look."On the screen, a news reporter stood outside Perry Pharmaceutical’s new factory, the building lit up against the night sky. The reporter’s voice was clear and urgent, capturing the attention of viewers across the city."It has become the talk of the town that at the grand opening of Perry Pharmaceutical's new factory, it was revealed that James Perry has been taking credit for the work of one of his former employees."Calvin’s heart pounded as he watched fo

  • Dream

    The night air felt cold, piercing Calvin's skin even though his body was wrapped in a thick, warm blanket. The chill came from a dream slowly dragging him back to a childhood he had nearly forgotten.In his dream, Calvin stood in the hallway of his old house. The white walls had begun to yellow, and the carpet on the floor looked worn. He heard the soft laughter of his younger self, probably around seven years old. Moments later, he saw little Calvin running around aimlessly before he collided with a young woman carrying a cup of tea."Calvin, don't run around the house! It's dangerous if this hot tea spills on you," the woman gently scolded. Her face was warm. Her hair was loosely tied back, and her eyes looked at Calvin with a tenderness that always made him feel safe.Mom... adult Calvin whispered in his heart. His blood rushed at the sight of his mother and hearing her voice again—the voice that had long disappeared from his memory—filling his chest with a tight, aching longing."

  • It Should’ve Exploded

    A subordinate knelt before President Lee, the supreme leader of Han Xin, who sat on his throne and looked down at the man with a haughty expression. “What news do you bring me this time?” he said mockingly.The atmosphere in the room was suffocating and tense, filled with the cruel aura that emanated from President Lee—even when the tyrant wasn’t committing any atrocities.“Forgive me, my lord. Calvin is still alive, and he survived the plane crash with ease,” the man explained timidly.President Lee’s face immediately hardened. His eyes darkened, and his fists clenched tightly. “You couldn’t even kill a cockroach?” he hissed sharply. “Are you sure you did your job properly?”The subordinate didn’t dare answer directly. He bowed even lower, almost as if trying to disappear into the floor. His knees trembled violently, and cold sweat began to drip from his temples. His breath was ragged, unable to bear the burning gaze of President Lee. His courage shrank to nothing—even though the Pre

  • Rebirth of Bacca

    Destroyed buildings from the war greeted Calvin at every step as he walked through the city of Bacca. Debris was scattered everywhere. Barrion—his homeland—was now free from the tyrannical rule of Han Xin... but the remnants of destruction were overwhelming.Calvin's steps halted at a vast field, once known as the city center. Around him, nothing remained but rubble and charred pillars. His eyes swept over the scene, his expression difficult to read."I'll start by rebuilding the houses and structures in this area first," Calvin said."Please do, Sir," replied the President, who stood not far from him, nodding respectfully and giving Calvin the space to do as he wished.Without a word, Calvin stepped forward. He knelt down, pressing his palm against the ground. Instantly, the earth trembled, compacted itself, and began to rise, forming solid buildings with supernatural precision. Wooden elements emerged from the soil, weaving into walls, rooftops, and sturdy pillars, creating rows of

  • The Rise of Barrion's Guardian

    The plane began to shake more violently. Emergency alarms wailed incessantly, making the atmosphere even more tense. Passengers—including two government representatives from Barrion—screamed, some cried, others clung to their seatbelts as if they could save them from death.Meanwhile, Calvin remained calmly seated, though his body shook along with the turbulence. His eyes focused on the window, then on a flight attendant who ran past the cabin aisle in panic.“The cabin's losing pressure! Navigation system failure!” came the pilot’s voice from the cockpit.Calvin slowly stood, walking toward the front, keeping his balance with effort.“Open the door,” he ordered sharply upon reaching the cockpit.“We’re trying!” The co-pilot looked pale. “The main engine is completely dead, we—”“If we panic, we die. Stick to the plan. You head toward the nearest airport for an emergency landing. I’ll help as much as I can—just focus on landing the plane safely.” Calvin stared at the wildly blinking s

  • The Price of Pride

    Calvin’s name suddenly exploded across various social media platforms. A clip of him calmly but devastatingly shutting down the shareholders' arguments during yesterday’s meeting went viral and trended within hours. What impressed the public the most was how Calvin managed to leave Kevin Lang completely speechless after enduring a series of insults. People began praising Calvin even more as a medical god with the heart of an angel.Meanwhile, far from the media spotlight, Kevin was sitting in a treatment room at Lang Hospital. His hands trembled as a nurse finished reattaching his severed pinky. The pain from Calvin’s brutal and unexpected act of cutting off his finger was unbearable—but the most excruciating pain wasn’t in his finger. It was in his pride. Kevin’s ego was shattered by the fact that he had to go to Calvin and beg him to return the severed piece.“This is all that bastard Calvin’s fault, Dad!” Kevin growled, his voice shaking with emotion. “He dared to humiliate me—me,

  • Use The Card!

    Laughter echoed throughout the meeting room. All eyes were fixed on Calvin with judgmental and mocking gazes.“This is the first time I’ve seen a genius doctor turn out to be a mental patient. How could Miss Alana bring someone in the middle of a hallucination phase?” they scolded.“I’m sure that’s just a card he picked up on the street. Shouldn’t you return it to its owner? You won’t be able to use it anyway!” mocked another as they burst into laughter.They brutally trampled on Calvin’s dignity, treating him like a filthy sewer rat that deserved to be a laughingstock.“Hahaha!” Calvin suddenly let out a dry laugh, echoing their cheerful cackles and instantly silencing them in confusion. “You’re laughing at me, but are you sure your money is clean? This card is mine, and the money in it is mine. I use it with peace of mind because it’s clean. But I doubt any of you feel as calm as I do,” Calvin said, throwing their mockery back at them.“No matter how much money is in your fake card,

  • What Could You Do?

    "Perry Pharmacy did something incredibly foolish. After this disaster, what are you going to do to cover our massive losses? We won’t accept just an apology in a situation like this," said one of the shareholders, his voice laced with anger he tried to suppress, though the sarcasm in his tone was hard to miss.That night, the Perry family had gathered for an important meeting. All shareholders and members of the board of directors filled the meeting room seats, their faces gloomy and angry.The atmosphere in the room was unbearably tense, especially for the Perry family, who had now lost face."Can we start this meeting and hear how this madness happened?""The Perry family is completely incompetent at managing a simple business like this. You’ve destroyed our trust and our money. Utterly foolish!"All the fury was directed at the Perry family, prompting Beatrice, James, and Giana to immediately glare at Alana with sharp eyes."This is all Alana’s fault," James hissed. "She’s the one

  • Sell Your Body

    "You cancel the agreement and I will be willing to pay for your losses. I truly have no energy left to keep facing your insane obsession with me, Alana," Calvin said tiredly. "Besides, I never wanted this marriage in the first place."Alana was stunned to hear Calvin's words. She never expected a man like him to be so cruel to her."Don’t joke around, Calvin. How could you possibly afford to cover all my losses if you cancel our marriage agreement?" Alana asked in disbelief."So you still underestimate me even after everything that’s happened, Alana," Calvin sneered. "Is it because I’m poor that you’ve always treated me like dirt—even now? You’ve been so harsh because your obsession with me stems from a sense of superiority over a poor man like me.""That’s not what I meant, Calvin. You misunderstood," Alana said in a panic, trying to explain. "I never looked down on you, no matter your situation. I just want to marry you and leave all the problems in this city behind, that’s all. I c

  • I’ll Pay

    Alana fell silent, disappointed to hear her family so strongly opposed her decision to marry Calvin. She had hoped they would be happy for her and help make her dreams come true.“Aren’t you ashamed to marry a man who was once just your contract husband, sis?” Giana scolded, eyeing Alana skeptically. “Like James said, you're doing something pointless. Just give up. Your engagement was called off, and that alone humiliated not just you, but our whole family in front of all those important guests,” she added sharply.Alana remained silent, her fists clenched tightly, holding back her anger and sadness.“Sweetheart, you should go see Kevin instead of insisting on marrying Calvin again,” Beatrice said gently, her voice calm. “This isn't about the company, it's about you. Instead of forcing yourself to be Calvin’s bride, I want you to marry a man who truly loves you—and I see that in Kevin.”“She’s right. Go see Kevin and talk to him,” James added firmly.“You're unbelievable,” Alana whisp
