Jack’s eyes burned with blood and rage that surged through his entire body in an instant. A tremendous urge to scream took hold of his chest and made it a bit hard to breathe.

But he had to be strong if he wanted to survive in a world where the Walton brothers did whatever they pleased, and no one could do anything to stop them.

Jack didn’t know where he found the strength to keep smiling convincingly, and he even began clapping along with all those millionaires who were celebrating the news Ricco Walton had just shared.

“You’ll have to try harder if you want to break me, you son of a bitch,” Jack whispered while clapping in front of that stage.

Ricco smiled and wrapped his arm around Hillary’s waist. He knew he had managed to wound Jack’s ego deeply, no matter how hard he tried to hide it.

Jack turned around and began desperately searching for a bottle of wine on the table where all the party food was. He found one, uncorked it, and started drinking straight from the bottle as if it

    The police launched a full operation to locate the two people who had been chosen for the next battle. Within seconds, the city streets were filled with patrol cars blaring that characteristic siren sound, flashing red and blue lights. The problem was that they didn’t know exactly where the two lived. So they had to carry out an entire intelligence operation to find out. Since they didn’t use their real names, it was a real odyssey to track them down. Still, they had to do it before they hurt each other—or even worse, before the few hours given by the system ran out and there was no winner."Curfew, curfew. As of this moment, a curfew is declared. Everyone go directly to your homes," the patrol cars blared through loudspeakers, addressing the pedestrians who were still on the streets.The police could see drones flying above their heads, recording every detail to deliver exclusive footage to the live broadcast. All users could watch as the authorities desperately searched for the two

    [ INSTALLATION STARTING.... ][ TRANSMISSION INITIATED! ]The afternoon of May 26, 2065, went down in history as the first time the entire world received a message simultaneously.The Euphoria app had found a way to return to the phones, tablets, and computers of all its users, despite the massive worldwide ban placed on it.Users of all nationalities stared at their device screens in shock and disbelief as the logo vanished, giving way to the face of a man dressed in an extremely expensive suit, standing in what looked like a garden or sanctuary no one had ever seen before."Good afternoon. My name is Carl Stanton. And I am the owner of the 'Euphoria' app," said the man, who until that moment was a complete unknown to the rest of the world.Within seconds, international police had managed to intercept the transmission using a tablet seized from one of the arrested users. And while they couldn’t trace the signal’s origin, they were able to obtain a photograph of the man responsible fo

    [MILLIONAIRE NUMBER 6 OFFERS 100% HEALING IN EXCHANGE FOR ACCEPTING TO JOIN THE GLOBAL TOURNAMENT OF THE EUFORIA APP...Accept Decline]Jack had been savagely beaten and left near a remote river far from the city, a place where no one usually passed by. It was a spot so difficult to find that even reading a map wouldn't help much. The intention of the escorts was to make sure there was no chance anyone could help him this time.Even though they knew perfectly well that Jack could magically heal using the Absolute Millionaire System, they also knew he needed other people nearby to fulfill that type of challenge. However, they didn’t realize the system now only needed new recruits for its famous tournament — and a former assassin like Jack Stanton was the perfect recruit.Theo Walton’s idea — or rather, his intention — was for Jack to die on his own, without it being directly his fault. That way, he wouldn’t be penalized by the system and would get away with it. For Theo, it was at leas

    “Wake up, you son of a bitch!” shouted Theo Walton to wake Jack, throwing cold water in his face using a glass, “Every time you come to the Walton mansion, you leave us with millions of dollars in renovation damages,” Theo said angrily.Jack opened his eyes and came face to face with his greatest enemy—the man he once swore he would kill.The problem was, Jack was now tied to a chair with a steel chain wrapped tightly around his arms.Jack didn’t respond with words. He simply gave an intimidating glare and blew out the water that was streaming down his face, keeping him from breathing properly.“I guess you’re still dazed. You don’t remember where you are. Those are the consequences of stepping on a landmine. And you were very lucky, Jack. Not everyone who steps on a mine lives to tell the tale,” Theo Walton said, pacing back and forth. “But you’ve always been a lucky bastard,” he added.Jack could still hear that sharp ringing in his ears, though not as intensely. At least now he cou

    "The day has finally come," said Theo Walton with pride as he stood up from his chair and began to walk toward the giant window behind the desk in his office. The same window through which Jack had thrown him fifty years ago."The day for what, Dad? I don't understand!" Alec protested, confused by his father's strange behavior.Theo raised his eyebrows and frowned as he swallowed hard. He then cleared his throat and returned to deliver the great truth his son had never known."Have you ever wondered why I’ve never accepted any of the women you've brought into this mansion?" Theo asked, starting to search through his private bar."Because they’re not worthy?" Alec replied with a question of his own."Where the hell is that bottle? Today is a day to celebrate," Theo muttered to himself."I suppose their parents’ fortunes are smaller than ours. That’s why you rejected them," Alec insisted, while his father kept searching."You're an idiot," Theo said, pausing his search for a moment. "Oh

    The driver stopped the limousine in the middle of the highway, on a suspension bridge that connected the city and was obviously on the way to the Walton mansion. Many cars had to make dangerous maneuvers to avoid crashing into the limousine, which had suddenly stopped without any prior signal.Insults and curse words rained down on the driver, who opened the front door and ran quickly toward the rear cabin, where Alec Walton was moving violently and foaming a strange white substance from his mouth.He couldn’t care less about the complaints and insults from the other drivers. There was no time to explain what was happening. The only thing on the driver’s mind was helping young master Alec and trying to save his life.“Young Master Alec!” he shouted desperately as he opened the rear cabin door.But he quickly noticed Alec was no longer moving. The convulsions had stopped, and now he just lay there, motionless, his hands twisted in a way that was terrifying to look at.“Damn it!” exclai
