"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 out of the elevator with two bodyguards in black expensive suits.

'It's Scott Hudson' One of the security guards whispered.

'Wow, I haven't seen him since I started working as a receptionist,'

'He's a rare gem, he doesn't even show up like this all the time'

'It must be because of some important matter, I'm sure of that'

"....." Different opinions and suggestions swept through.

'Mr. Scott came to see Dylan? Dylan must be a big shot. Oh my goodness, what have I done to myself.' Remorse plastered Clara's face.

As they walked straight to Dylan, the security guards and all the staff stood up and bowed respectfully to him as an act of royalty. The guards remained motionless until he had walked down the hallway.

"Mr. Dylan?" He extended his hands and shook hands with him, "I am Mr. Scott Hudson."

'Is this the famous Scott Hudson? Man is a legend' Dylan had to compose himself.

Then the thought occur to him that he just shook hands with the Mr. Scott Hudson. It could've been an achievement then and all his friends will definitely hear of it after.

A smile crawled over his face, "I am Dylan."

"Could you mind if we talk privately?" Scott requested.

"Sure!"

The elevator lurched to a stop at the 20th floor. Dylan couldn't help himself but smile at the opulent designs and decorations as they walked straight into an office.

It never occured to him that he will one day walk with Scott Hudson into his office at one of the biggest Banks in Stone's City.

"Could you give us a minute?" Scott told Julian as he paved the way for Dylan into his office. Nobody except the shareholders have entered Mr. Scott Hudson's office.

He practically own the 20th floor and that floor is off limits. That was the kind of fear He has induced on every staff that had work at Stone's City Bank.

Silence shadowed the room as Dylan and Mr. Scott Hudson sat across from each other, the tension palpable. The air was thick with anticipation as Scott leaned forward, his eyes locked intently on Dylan.

"So, Mr. Dylan," Scott began, he cleared his voice, "I must say, I'm impressed. You're a college student, and yet you're making an offer to buy our bank. That's...audacious, to say the least. But we came at a price of $22 Billion."

Dylan smiled calmly, his eyes never leaving Scott's face. "I'm just a guy who sees opportunities, Mr. Hudson. And I believe this bank has a lot of potential. So Yes, $22 Billion it is."

Scott's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "You're not even going to negotiate? We just threw out a number and you buy it?"

"I've done my research, Mr. Hudson. I know what this bank is worth. And I'm willing to pay top dollar for it." Dylan shrugged.

The room was silent for a moment, the only sound heard was the soft humming of the air conditioner. Then, Scott let out a low whistle.

"Well, I'll be damned," he said, a slow grin spreading across his face. "You're either the most confident person I've ever met, or you're completely insane."

Dylan chuckled. "Maybe a little bit of both, Mr. Hudson."

Scott leaned back in his chair, a look of admiration on his face. "You know, I think we're going to get along just fine, Mr. Dylan. Make a payment and Sign here, so we can make it official."

"Where do I pay?" Dylan asked and all that kept running through Scott's mind was how fast this deal was unfolding. He didn't even request to pay a 10% first, he just want to pay everything at once?

"You can pay here." Mr Scott turned the screen towards him and there were many options to paid with.

Instantly, the payment was successful and the way Scott looked at Dylan changed instantly. His eyes bulged out of his socket in utter astonishment.

'Only few have tens of billions in assets, talk alone in cash, and only an insane person would pay $22 Billion in just one fold, emptying their account to do a thing like that wasn't business wise, but this college student did that? Is he from those invincible family?'

Dylan glanced through the purchase agreement and all the shares purchase agreement, before finally signing for the handover.

Scott's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "You know, I have to ask...how does a college student come up with $22 billion?"

Dylan just smiled. "Let's just say I have my ways, Mr. Hudson."

'That's it... Suspicion confirmed, he's definitely from those secretly rich family, Heard they are not just rich! Wow!!'

As they exchanged contact information, Scott turned to Dylan with a grin. "You know, I think we're going to be great friends, Dylan. And please, call me Scott. We don't have to be too formal."

Dylan smiled back, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I'd like that, Scott. Let's stay in touch."

Scott called the head staff and the shareholders after the deal went through. And discussed the handover with them. "From now henceforth, Mr. Dylan Bradley is now the CEO and owner of Stone's City Bank."

The news of Dylan buying the Bank spread like wildfire through the whole Bank. Everyone were shocked and couldn't believe what happened. Some of the shareholders wants to meet with this Dylan boy.

Some of the female staff were glad that they have been a change of management since they couldn't stand the sexual harassment from most of the shareholders.

'The deal happened? And I have just insulted my Boss before now? What is he going to do me? How do I find a better job with a ruin reputation?' Clara's shoulder slumped as regrets crushed on her.

As Dylan emerged from the elevator, Clara prostrated herself before him, her face streaked with tears as she begged fervently,

"Please, don't fire me. Don't ruin my reputation please. I will do anything. Anything you say!"

    The final bell rang, echoing through the halls like a signal of freedom and students began packing up as chatter filled the air. But before anyone could leave the classroom, the energy shifted.Becky walked in and every head turned towards her direction. Her heels clicked confidently against the floor with her sleek hair bouncing with each step, and her perfectly tailored olive-green knit dress hugged her curves in all the right places. But it wasn’t just her beauty that caught attention, it was who she was looking for.“Is she lost?” someone whispered.Desmond’s face lit up when he saw her. He was certain that she came looking for him. Ashley side-eyed Becky with a glare sharp enough to cut glass. She hated the fact that Desmond had stopped looking at her the very moment Becky stepped into the class.Tracy and everyone else straightened in their seat as curiosity flashed through their eyes. But Becky’s focus never wavered as she walked straight up to Dylan ignoring Desmond and a

    Desmond wasn’t done, not with his pride stained and the audience forming. He pushed off the desk in front of him and straightened his shirt with exaggerated flair as he stepped in front of Dylan and Barry.Barry knew Desmond was nothing when it comes to fighting. After all, his friend defeated the Bergs family, and that has boasted Barry's confidence.With that he quickly whispered to Dylan to calm down and let him handle the whole situation on his behalf. Barry just wanted to give Desmond a taste of his own medicine and this was the best moment.“Don’t get too comfortable, Dylan. Just because a rich girl drives you in doesn’t mean you belong in her league. Some of us earn our place.” Desmond fired angrily.Barry turned like he had heard the dumbest thing all day. “Earn your place? Bro, you’ve been leeching off your daddy’s connections since high school. Don’t talk like you built anything.”The class rippled again with low chuckles and side-eyes. The shameful humiliation was buildin

    Dylan hadn’t even made it halfway to the class building when Barry came charging toward him with his arms waving like a madman.“Bro....damn!”"You're okay?" Dylan was even surprised with Barry's sudden burst.“I’ve never been better!” Barry grinned as he threw an arm around Dylan’s shoulder, like the world hadn’t flipped upside down. Like everything was perfectly normal… except it wasn’t.“You didn’t bring your car? Come on, man! We’re the new face of this campus now. No more moving like some broke-ass dudes. You feel me?” Barry beamed, practically bouncing with every word. His excitement was infectious and chaotic, but very genuine.“Wait, what’s gotten into you?” Dylan raised a brow with a half-smile spreading across his face.“Oh... Yeah, my bad!” Barry laughed, lowering his voice. “Austin told me everything. Every damn detail. Man, do you even know how insane it sounds? I thought he was messing with me until I checked his IG stories…”He leaned in conspiratorially and whispered,

    As Dylan approached his class, whispers rippled through the corridors and since his senses are heightened enough, he could hear everything they were saying.Some of the girls were surprised with Dylan's handsomeness and couldn't for a second stare away. They couldn't believe it was the same Dylan they all knew. The every day transformation was already becoming intimidating for other guys.Those that didn't want to admit that Dylan's new look was captivating drifted their attention towards the girl that dropped him off."Isn't that the same girl that came to the dinner party with him?""Wow... I thought the girl just spoke up out of pity for Dylan. Never knew they were together.""I think that's his girlfriend." One of the students cuts into their whispers."Girlfriend? Dylan has such a rich hot girl? That's not possible... Hey, com'on, y'all should think for a second. How can Dylan possibly be dating a rich girl like that." Tracy fired. She was already getting pissed with the admirati

    The jeep rolled into the school premises like it belonged there. The sudden movement coupled with the speed the car made its way through the gate alerted everyone and even attracted more attention.Students paused mid-conversation instantly. While some were staring in amusement, others were reaching out for their phones.It wasn’t the car, it was the aura of the man stepping out of it that made the car even more noticeable.Dylan stepped out, calm and composed like the spotlight belonged to him. He moved around to Betty’s side as she lowered the tinted window and saw her smirk as cocky as ever."You're not bad at driving, I must say!" Dylan complimented while maintaining the eye contact. This was something he couldn't do before the infinite system, but now it felt like every trick on having a conversation was imprinted into his head.Right now, confidence poured out of him effortlessly like he owned everything around.There was a propelling force that instinctively pulled Betty towa

    Inside, Dylan showed them to the guest wing that had quiet and elegant rooms prepared as if someone had known they would be needed. “Rest here. Eat if you’re hungry, and there are medical supplies in the bathroom cabinets. I have to head to school.”“School? After… everything?” Nicole blinked. She looked genuinely puzzled as to why someone as rich and powerful as Dylan will still look worried about lectures.It didn't make sense to her. Dylan had just pulled off what most would consider a movie-level escape from chaos, and he has shown that he has enough money to even buy the entire school, why still get bothered about school and some shitty class attendance.But the more she stares at Dylan, trying to understand what kind of mystery clouded him, the more confused she becomes.Dylan wasn’t an open book. And even when he seemed like one, the words were written in a language she couldn’t quite decipher.“You know I am still a student...Life doesn't stop.” Dylan added as he made his w
