Alvin's heart ached as he watched the sheer amount of groceries wasted on the floor. Even if he currently had money, he had been someone used to being broke, so waste of any kind was not acceptable to him. He sighed deeply and turned to Martha.

“Do you guys have the card I gave Leah? Where is it?” He whispered, driving out of the mini mart/ one stop shop.

“Yes, it's with me.” Tiffany said, bringing it out of the pouch strapped to her waist.

“How much was spent?” Alvin asked, but everyone kept quiet.

“What's wrong? Why is no one answering my question?”

“Um, we used around eight hundred thousand dollars. Things like bags of rice, sugar, flour, potatoes, beans, soy beans, oil, soft drinks, cartons of processed food, and other bulky things have been sent home through the express delivery company. We bought them first. Sam would be outside the gate waiting to let them in. We did it this way to reduce the bulk. The price was so high because we only bought premium ingredients. And

    Rex paused briefly at the door, turning to look at Alvin who had grabbed his arm. “What's the matter?” His brows were pinched together in a little frown, as if he couldn't comprehend the reason he was being stopped from doing the poor Alvin a favor. “They're superstars, with a sizable fan base. If you handle them, they might turn the matter around and garner public sympathy. They would twist the narrative into a sick tale, causing problems.”“I'm not afraid of their problems.” Rex cut in. “A little Coleman family can't handle my pinky.”Alvin secretly sneered at his arrogance and confidence, but smiled anyway. “I understand, young master. But you don't even know everything that happened. I already have a plan in place, leave the matter to me and don't get involved.”Rex looked at Alvin’s supposedly injured foot, surprised to see him standing on it. Alvin noticed and groaned, pretending to swoon. This time, Rex shifted away, not catching him. Alvin grasped a chair, pulling himself

  • hot headed young master.

    Alvin kept looking at the boy before him. Despite the little smile on his face, he was damn serious. The glint in his eyes showed that he wasn't joking. Alvin corked an eye brow, matching his stare. “Little cutie, threats don't work on me. I'm really interested to see how messy you can make it get.”Rex shrugged. “Alright. Let's do this shit.”He picked up his phone and dialed a number. Alvin snatched the phone from him, ending the call. “Hey, you, motorcycle snatcher. Have you turned to a phone snatcher too? If you dent my precious phone…hmm.”Alvin smirked, turning the phone around to get a better look. “How much is it?”“More than your wildest imagination.”“Come on, it's just a phone. No matter how expensive it is, and the level of customization, it can't be more than a million dollars.”The scowl on Rex's face had Alvin shoving the phone back to him. “Why are you being too serious?”Rex looked at Alvin up and down. “You know you're a freak, right? Despite the beating you r

  • meeting REX DOMINUS Again

    Everyone there was stunned, then angry at his arrogant, insulting words. The very handsome boy before them didn't seem older than twenty. His rugged boyish charm had this angelic halo around it, his eyes shone like the stars, and his arrogant playboy stance only made him seem more intriguing. He was handsome enough to put even the most handsome model to shame. Alvin's eyes immediately went wide with shock. ‘It's him?’ “Young friend, why are you interrupting in matters you know nothing about?” “I, your ancestor, hates seeing scum like you the most. Are you going to scram, or should I make you?” “This audacious brat!” one of the guards cursed, going to take him down. A casual kick had the guard careening and losing his footing, a hit from the helmet sent him face-planting right into the granite floor. “You, how dare you touch my people?” Sonya screeched, furious at the person she thought was a disrespectful brat. “Do you know who I am? Who we are?” “Oh? Tell me then

  • Doing evil without remorse

    “You’ve gone crazy. If I do that, I’ll never be able to sing again, while you continue to release my songs and enjoy my sweat. Dream on. I’ll never do it.”Sonya chuckled.“Oh? The church rat is still dreaming of making it big as a star. You were born a penniless scum, and that’s what you’ll be forever.”The guards laughed as if they’d heard the funniest thing ever. Fred smiled, a condescending glint in his eyes, exuding infinite arrogance. “My JC Entertainment will never let you go anywhere. Bring the music sheets and recordings tomorrow—this place, same time. Otherwise, hmph.”“Just kill me then. Once is enough. I won’t let you profit off me again.”Alvin pushed himself to a standing position, his eyes defiant as he stared back at them.“You lack talent and are mediocre. You only rely on your family’s connections to kill and bully others. Hard work is one thing you’ll never subject yourself to. You want things already made, to enjoy the fruits of others’ labor. Admit it—you’re not

  • Narrow road for enemies

    “You've worked hard,” the special assistant prepared for Alvin after his second hit performance, said, offering him a bottle of spring water.Alvin smiled and nodded. He noticed the presence of someone lurking behind the curtain, and his lips curled up, an imperceptible smirk hard to notice.Unlike his normal pattern, he slowly removed his mask and drank some water. The assistant smiled. “What a handsome face. Isn't it a waste to hide it behind that mask?”Without waiting for his answer, she rushed off to her next task. Alvin slipped his phone into his pocket and turned to the door with a huge smile. Today, he didn't come with a backpack to avoid losing precious manuscripts. Or rather, because he expected something to occur. The moment he turned to the door, he froze in the motion of trying to pull over his hoodie. The smile on his face dissipated, replaced by ‘profound horror’.Sonya smirked and waved at him.“Hello there, ex. Did you miss me?”That was all the prompt Alvin needed.

  • Destined to be your slave?

    The crowd’s cheer was defeaning. The moment the Star Search organizers announced the entrance of number fifty-four on stage, the crowd went crazy. His two previous showcases were lit, and today, there were even more guests, despite the slight hike in tickets. The organizers being the business people they were didn't hesitate to rip off their clients by taking advantage of his popularity. There have been many speculations on who the mysterious number fifty-four could be, and why he always wore a mask, unwilling to show his face. Some said he was the heir of a rich family, chasing his dreams and hiding from his billionaire parents who wanted him to join the family business. Others say he might be a veteran superstar’s son. Some others say he could be an underground musician. The instant Alvin came on stage, the spectators went crazy, waving banners and light sticks to cheer him on. He shut his eyes, taking deep breaths. ‘Yes, this is it. The stage is my home. Although it took me to
