2024-12-17 19:29:32He shoved the door open and all he could feel was a sharp piercing needle pummelling through his heart. His heart got shattered instantly.
Dylan moved clumsily with tears brimming in his eyes as he watched his trusted girlfriend, who was already in cloud nine with Mr. Taylor's son. At first, he thought of turning back and leaving them to enjoy the moment since they were oblivious that someone was watching. But rage coupled with frustration trapped his feet to the ground, and he watched closely as the remaining piece of his heart got shattered the more. He couldn't take it anymore...I got beaten all because I need money to buy her a birthday present and here she is cuddling with my Boss's son. "Ashley...!!" He yelled in a loud agonizing voice. Dylan's voiced jolted Ashley from her realm of emotional pleasure. "Uhm..." She looked up and saw Dylan's bruised face masked with pain as hot tears welled up his eyes. "Dylan...." She quickly covered themselves with the duvet. "What are you doing here?" She tried to hide her nervousness with a smile. "Really? What am I doing here? And here you are, having a wonderful time with not just anyone but my Boss son, after I told you about getting my salary to buy you a birthday gift ." he chuckled bitterly and turned towards Taylor's son, who was already dressed, "Desmond...." He gulped. "After everything your family did to me, you are not satisfied that you still have to take my girlfriend away from me?" He said with bitterness lurked beneath his voice. "Hey... Watch the way you talk to me you little piece of shit...!" Desmond retaliated with annoyance in his tone. He wasn't feeling any sign of remorse. "Stay away from my girlfriend because the next time you go...." He didn't finish his warning before he saw Desmond locking lips with Ashley right in his presence. He felt an intensified pain that the only thoughts hovering over his head was dashing towards Desmond and beating hell out of him. Ashely reciprocated the kiss, which turned into a passionate one. "Yes...? And If I don't, what are you going to do... poor shit, huh? Can you imagine this cleaner that clean my house. You're so dramatic." He said and went back into the bed. "It's over between us, Dylan, Don't you get it. I'm not in your class anymore." She said as Desmond's hand found her hips, took them and moved them to her butt. It felt massive, firm and a great hold. "You heard that, poverty-stricken shit." Desmond voiced out and kissed her again. Making it look extremely obvious that she was all for him. "He forced you right? I know he forced you to do this, Ashely, listen to me, he's just using you and once he's done. He is going to dump you, that's what Desmond is fond of doing in campus. And one thing you should...." "Shhhh.....!!!! Enough of this bullshit, you're ruining the moment and no one forced me to do anything. We both know how hard you work before getting money, You had to beg for your salary before you can get a birthday gift for me... Gosh!!! Who knows..? You might have been kicked out of campus if not for your scholarship. I want more than that. I need a life....!! I'm sick and tired of staying with a low class budget like you. Don't you get that?" "And yes... I have been seeing Desmond for a long time now. So it's very obvious I have graduate from your class long ago." She cussed. "Why are you still standing there? Has poverty block your ear pores too? It's over. Ashley and I are currently dating. She's happy with someone that can provide her needs for her." The more Desmond keep talking the more Dylan feel like shutting him up forever, but here he was, feeling annoyed and powerless like usual. "After all these years? You just can't do this to me, this isn't fair." Dylan couldn't hold himself anymore. Tears rolled down his cheek and he quickly clean the stray of tears off and put on an icy face betraying what he actually feel inside. "What isn't fair? You waiting till it's my birthday before getting me what I want? Can you take care of me. Gosh...! You haven't been able to even take care of yourself. It had always been a shame walking with you in school. You irritate me a lot if I never told you." With that she stood up angrily and covered herself with her nightwear. Ashley had never insulted him like this before. At first, he thought he was dreaming, but this was reality and when he thought he had something ongoing, Mr. Taylor's family ruin everything for him. Desmond Taylor is one of the famous dudes in school and every girl's dream not because of how handsome he were, but because of his fame and money. Dylan had to accept reality that handsomeness isn't everything. Desmond walked towards Dylan with an accomplishment smile extended over his face. Dylan's hand formed a solid mass as his fingernails sank into his palm causing his hand to nearly bleed. "Now I see why my Dad didn't want to help you. Hahaha," he laughed mockingly as he closed the gap between them. Dylan wasn't just handsome in large margin than Desmond, he was taller unlike Desmond who was averagely short. "Mr. Taylor didn't help, I worked for it and he refused to pay me when I need the money. How do you describe that? Wickedness or help? I think it's the former." "Don't you dare insult my Dad. You know what, we're not paying a dine and I'll let the whole school know that you worked as a cleaner and how you lost your girlfriend because you couldn't take her of care." Desmond threatened with a cynical smile lingering over his face. He saw many reasons why he should beat the hell out of Desmond, but he gave it a rethink and came to the realization that it wasn't worth it. Fighting for someone who deny you all because of some rich dude. It wasn't worth it, and Punching him will only increase his suffering. He had finally gotten a chance to see through Ashley. She wasn't different from other campus girls after all. And today she showed her true colour. "Today, you rejected me because I'm broke. Tomorrow, you will regret that you made a grave mistake." With an icy face, he said and stormed out of the room in a huff, slamming the door behind him forcefully. Just as he left, his cellphone rang and it was a text message from a W******p group: The Tripod, his Friends at campus. They were just three of them in the group. Barry: [Hey man, you got the gift for her already?] He heaved in frustration and silent his phone immediately. He slumped onto a nearby bench, feeling emptied and perplexed. Dylan raised his head up and glared at the featureless grey blanket of low clouds in the sky, with his heart heavily laden with sorrow. "God... Why is my life like this? Why am I so unfortunate? I just want to be happy... Is that so much to ask." He uttered with a dolorous tone as his financial life teared down on him. He stood up and headed for campus, but the image of Ashley and Desmond kissing just couldn't get out of his head. Today was a day to remember indeed "Arghhhhhh.... But I did everything for her. Loved her and cared for her. Haven't I don't enough. Why does she have to cheat on me." As he walked aimlessly and distraught down the road, a speeding car came out of nowhere, and before he could react, it swept him off with a tremendous force. CRASH....!!!

Dylan's body was sent flying through the air, crashing to the ground with a sickening thud. He lay there, bleeding and motionless, his vision fading to black as his head spun wildly. The tears he had been holding back finally broke free, and in that moment, he felt utterly alone and forsaken. The pain was overwhelming, and he couldn't move a muscle. His mind was a jumble of thoughts, but one question kept echoing: "Is this the end?" He thought about all he had lost, and how he had nothing left to lose. The world seemed cruel and unfair, and he felt like he was being punished for no reason. As he closed his eyes, a flood of memories from his life flashed before him. He saw glimpses of his childhood, how his parents died in a car accident, his friends, and his lost love. He thought he heard a faint whisper in his mind, but he couldn't quite make out what it was saying. Just then, the faint whisper in his mind became sharper with a resounding voice ringing in his mind. "HOST D

Dylan hurried to a vendor machine not too far from the deserted road to get something affordable. He stared doubtfully at his hands. But scoffed and decided to try it out. "Won't hurt if I try. After all, if it doesn't work out, I will just walk away." With that he surveyed the road and saw that no one was coming. So, he hurriedly placed his thumb to pay the vendor machine. "Ding...!!! Ding..!!" "The Infinite system successfully paid $4." Instantly a candy fell from the vendor machine. "What? Did it just....?" A smile slowly embalmed Dylan's face, but he still don't want to believe it. It was too good to be real. "Ding...!! Ding!!" "Infinite system successfully paid $4" Another candy fell out of the machine. "What the hec----" He was almost screaming out loud, but he cupped his mouth before he could finish screaming. "It real...!!! What if--- No, no no... It just can't be real, maybe the candies are not paid for." "Ding Ding...!!!" "Infinite system successfully paid $12 " Di

In a split seconds, the transaction was complete and a $10 Million was paid. When the cashier head the beeping sound, she quickly turn the computer towards her and scrutinized with her heart pounding faster than usual. 'What? The transaction went through. Jeez, that's a huge amount of money and I would have handed myself a promotion by the directors.' She thought regretfully. 'She stole my customer and everyone including the directing board will applaud her for a job well down.' She threw a scornful gaze at Julian. She felt like throwing herself to ground and crying like a baby. "Sir..." Dylan threw a bone-chilling stare at Julian, 'Did she just address me with sir? Money indeed can buy respect. Well, she wasn't rude like this mannerless cashier' He spun towards the Cashier with that 'I told you so' stare, served with a side

Miss Julian headed towards the elevator still in shock, and picked up the phone to call the directing board. "I need to speak with the board, immediately," she said, trying to composed herself. Miss Julian was only allowed to the directing board conferences on special occasions and she doesn't get to choose when to and not to. The conference meeting are mainly for shareholders with exceedingly high shares. So when Miss Julian requested to speak to the directing board physically. It was going to be a difficult request that might take days to be process. But when they heard about someone proposing to buy the Bank, they had no choice than to let her in. A few minutes later, Julian got out on the elevator at the 30th floor and walked into the conference room where the directing board was seated. The hall was sleek and spacious, with a well ventilation, complimented by the floor-to-ceiling windows adoring the wall of the hall. The hall was a true definition of luxury. Powerful figu

"Mr. Dylan, are you comfortable? Do you want anything?" Clara asked ardently. Dylan just threw a glance at her and ignored her like there was no one there. Clara felt embarrassed, despite everything she has done to make sure he gets into the good books of Dylan, it just isn't working. A big shot like Dylan was worth consideration and currying favor from him was her target. "Sir, you know this Bank might cost tens of billions and it can be---" "I know!" Dylan interrupted with a contempt look. 'I was just trying to keep a conversation with you, that's all. You don't have to be rude. You're not even the most wealthy man in the city. No one knows Dylan, so why does he have to behave like the whole world is at his feet. Gosh, it's disgusting and annoying!' Clara rumbled in her mind. If Dylan knew what was going on in her head now, he might have intensify it just to tell what being rude is. Subsequently, the elevator lurched to a stop and Miss Julian alongside Scott Hudson walked ou

'Poverty is not a shame, but the lack of respect for oneself and others is.' Dylan pondered. 'You will do anything? Money indeed can buy respect.' Dylan chuckled coltishly. People say money doesn't buy happiness or respect, well, for Dylan, money have definitely paved the way of him. Respect and power were at his fingertips all because of the money he had acquired. Dylan's expression remained impassive as he delivered the verdict, "Given your willingness to do anything, I've decided that you'll be taking on janitorial duties from this moment." With that, he turned on his heel and strode directly into Miss Julian's office, leaving Clara behind without a second glance. Clara was rooted to the spot, feeling humiliated. She never expected that Dylan was not tempted by her beauty, or he's just not the same with the former shareholders who understood what "I will do anything" means. "He asked me to become a janitor, Isn't this a demotion? But it was better than getting my image tarnis

It was already past midday and all Dylan could think of was how to get to the Xpression Fashion Brand company. It one of the biggest fashion Brand in Stone's City. He needed to dump his old clothes and get some well tailored one. No poor person could actually think of going to Xpression Fashion Brand, unless they are going there to look for a cleaner's job. "How do I get there on time now!" He stepped forward to the taxi stand with the dispatch bag hanging firmly in his hand. Just then, a convoy of luxury cars pulled up, the air was filled with the sound of revving engines and the gleam of polished metal. The three red Porsches and the Black vibrant Ferrari with its iconic logo and curved lines seems to leave everyone at wake A group of muscular men in expensive black suits emboldening confidence and authority emerged from the cars, their presence was so commanding that one could fret at the sight of them.

The Ferrari halted and the guards came out of their Porsche car. As the men formed a protective circle around the Ferrari, their movements seemed choreographed, as if they had performed this ritual many times before. They did it exactly the way they did it before. "Do they always do this?" Inquisitive Dylan asked. He hadn't experienced a life like this before and it seems a bit strange to him thinking they do it so much better than those Hollywood movies he had watch. "Of course!" Scott giggled, "And I think you should buy some of them and you know... Some expensive cars to accentuate your status." 'He is trying to say that I look shabby? Well, he's got a point.' "Yeah..." He forcefully chuckled, "I was actually thinking about that too." "I can get you one that matches your status. I have a car company too and we can talk about it." Scott proposed.

"Mr. Dylan is in big trouble!""Do you think Mr. Dylan could save his bank today?" Another staff member chimed in."I know that the Woodson are perverts and vicious people, but humiliating a Woodson in the presence of everyone means you must have a strong family background."

But Daniel was groaning in pain, all the bones in his fingers were all cracked to the extent he couldn't even raise his hand upright.Daniel tried all his possible best to make sure the tears that welled up at the corner of his eyes didn't fall out. He can't embarrass himself in the presence of Julian.'Who the hell is this guy?''Why is he that strong? He didn't even move an inch, he just punched my fist and that's all? Is he that powerful?' Daniel was now convinced that Dylan wasn't someone to mess with, and at this point, he took the choice of walking away and not offending him anymore.With an embarrassed face, he made his way out of the office. But Dylan held him by arm and tugged him backward that he fell helplessly on the ground."Where did you think you are going? I offered you a choice to walk out earlier, but you turned i

The guard was flustered as tears started dripping down from his eyes.He thought that by crying Dylan might forgive him because he couldn't stop staring at Dylan's hand that had clenched into a fist. He was afraid of Dylan landing that wicked punch on him since he knew fully well that he couldn't survive it.But all his plans seep down the drain when Dylan grabbed his shirt and yanked him upward."When I returned... I want to see my staff release or you will regret ever crossing path with me." Dylan let off and he fell to the ground with a loud thud. Fear gripped him and he irrationally touched his heart to see if it hasn't broken out of his chest. The warning was like a ticking bomb placed on him, ready to explode any moment from now.

Julian Green hadn't called her before now. She normally sends WhatsApp messages, but right now, she was calling and Dylan felt a bit hesitant before picking up the call."Mr. Dylan, you should come to the bank right now.

Kimura and everyone in the Berg's family knew this."You never learn... Do you?" Mr. Miller took a step closer to Kimura and a dangerous aura exude from him.

Uncle Miles questioned when they were all seated. However, Allen's mood lit up, he was glad to see his father coming over. But Kimura's mood instantly morphed into a sad one. He had always wanted to have a meeting with his father, and now the man he had always wanted to have a discussion with is sitting right in front of him, but he couldn't even stare properly at him. Humiliation and embarrassment masked his face as he stared sadly at the table without raising his head.Kimura felt like he was the most hated member of the Berg's family.

He was looking distressed and Kimura just didn't even know why his brother was looking anxious."I'm telling the truth! I fought with him and he can fight swiftly in the night." Kimura's voice was ladened with persuasion. He was trying so hard to convince everyone that Dylan is a shadow warrior. After fighting him with and witnessing Dylan's swift movements in the dark, he was clearly convinced that Dylan is a shadow warrior."You fought with a shadow warrior???" Uncle Miles asked and quickly grabbed Kimura by the jaw and stared intently at his eyes like he was looking for something hidden somewhere in his eyes."Either he's a Shadow Warrior or a Divine Warrior. And I'm certain you didn't defeat him. Why are you alive?" Uncle Miles put on an expressionless face despite looking a bit anxious."He pardon me." Kimura answered and stared at his Uncle with a puzzled expression. Meanwhile
