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 contrast between their high-end cars and the rusty cars on the street was striking. The roar of the engines was almost deafening, leaving everyone frozen in awe.

Four of the burly men formed a protective circle around the Ferrari, while one of them carefully opened the door, allowing a dignified man in his 40's to step out with grandeur.

'That's Scott Hudson... Oh my God, I just saw Scott Hudson...' The people watching couldn't help but murmured to them as some of them brought out their phones to capture the moment. It was worth documenting thinking of how great and powerful Mr. Scott is.

A hushed whisper spread through the crowd, with people murmuring to each other in awe.

"He's even more impressive and powerful in person than the rumors suggest."

'If I can just shake hands with him, my life has change completely.'

'He's definitely the legend they say he is.' They couldn't help but admired the obvious display of wealth.

As he emerged from the Ferrari, he seemed to survey his surroundings with a sense of ownership, as if he were the master of his domain.

"Good Day Dylan!" Scott Hudson's approached Dylan with a handshake.

'Oh my god... He just shook hands with that Shabby dude. Man... That lad's life has changed completely. I wished I can just get a little close to him, I'd go on my kneels and beg passionately for a life change.' One of the dude passing by murmured with a stunned expression.

"Mr. Scott! I thought you've gone back to Sterling City." Dylan spoke freely like they have know each other for long.

"You know it a long drive to Sterling City and my private Jet is in Eastern part of Stone City, getting here will take a while, so I'm just taking a walk on Stone City and I just happened to bumped into you." Scott spoke with a smile extended over his face.

Before Dylan could utter another word, Scott spoke with almost a calm voice that even the Guards were shocked. "If you don't mind, can I offer you a ride to anywhere you want to go. I have all the time in the world as far Dylan is involved." He chuckled and Dylan couldn't help but smile too.

Before now, he wouldn't have dared to even approach Mr. Scott's guards, let alone have the influential man himself stop and offer him a ride. It was a surreal experience, and a testament to the drastic transformation his life had undergone.

'This is the best thing that has ever happened to me, Money can indeed buy anything. And I definitely need strong allies if I want to pay back to all those people who has looked down on me.' With a smug on his face, he stepped into the Ferrari's car with Mr. Scott.

"Where are you headed Dylan?"

Just then his old Android phone beeped and it was another message from a W******p group named 'The Tripods' with just three members

"A minute please."

"Don't worry I have all the time to wait." Scott said and Dylan proceeded to check the messages.

BARRY: [ Oh my God, Dylan, why didn't you tell us what happened?]

AUSTIN: [ Hope you're okay? And please don't check the class group? Nor the school group. Please just don't.]

Dylan: [ I'll tell you guys everything that happened today when I come back to school hostel. And why shouldn't I check the class group nor school group? ]

Dylan couldn't resist asking, but after receiving no response, he was compelled to check the class group chat.

To his dismay, he found himself being tagged in numerous anonymous messages. The comments were vicious and hurtful.

"Dylan is a total loser."

"He's just a cleaner at Desmond's house, and to think that he could keep Ashley when good and wealthy folks like Desmond exist. What a pathetic waste of space Dylan is."

"I heard he's been begging for scraps from Desmond's table.... Hahaha, No wonder he's so desperate to cling to anyone who'll give him attention."

"Dylan's got no future ahead of him. He's just a lowlife who'll always be stuck in the gutter."

"Who would have thought that a cleaner could be dating Ashley? Dylan needs to get back to scrubbing toilets where he belongs."

"I bet Ashley agreed to date him because she feels sorry for him. Poor thing, she really deserves so much better than a loser like Dylan."

"Dylan's just a joke. He thinks he's all high and mighty just because he's got a girlfriend, but really, he's just a pathetic little boy playing dress-up."

"Someone should tell Dylan that being a cleaner isn't something to be proud of. He's just embarrassing himself by trying to act like he's one of us."

Dylan's eyes widened in shock and hurt as he scrolled through the messages. The anonymous messages was even hosted by the entire Faculty, but it seems like all attention was fixated on him. He felt like he had been punched in the gut.

'Desmond must have done this. If my group Chat only is the getting heated like this. What about the School group chat?'

Dylan's face twisted in anger and hurt as he was about typing a response. But the message that came from The Tripods Group interrupted him.

BARRY: [ Dylan, Just don't say anything. Don't react! And Why don't you come to Opulent Haven Hotel, I will treat the Tripods to a meal. We're waiting for you. ]

Dylan has always wanted to go to a 5 star hotel, he even planned with the Tripods to take Ashely there to celebrate her birthday and Barry was eager to help since he was the one with a wealthy family among them.

Now Barry has proposed to take the Tripods to a 10 star hotel. Even though it felt like a dream come true, he just couldn't wait to take his revenge on Desmond and all these that had humiliated him.

With his anger fading away, He turned to Mr. Scott, but the man was just glued to his phone. Mr Scott glanced at him with an smiley face. "Have you thought of a place to go Dylan? I'm ready to take you there."

"That's so nice of you Mr. Scott!" He expressed. "Let's go to Opulent Haven Hotel."

    Dylan casually picked up his glass and took a sip of water, his expression remaining as calm as ever.Outwardly, nothing had changed,but inside, his mind had already become alert as he slowly glanced around the restaurant again.The elegant woman was still seated in the same spot, quietly stirring her coffee without looking in his direction anymore.The lady who had just entered had also found a seat, though she wasn't eating. She simply crossed one leg over the other and occasionally looked around the restaurant with her black glasses like she was waiting for someone.Then there was the receptionist.Every now and then, she would steal a glance toward Dylan before quickly looking away.One person could have been a coincidence... Two perhaps, but three? That wasn't something Dylan believed in.Becky noticed him looking around."What is it?""Nothing." Dylan smiled faintly.She tilted her head suspiciously. "You've looked around three times already.""Have I?""You have.""Maybe I'm ju

    Ms. Stella took them to the best of the regulars, just beside a large glass wall overlooking the city skyline."Please have a seat, Mr. Dylan.""Thank you." Dylan nodded.The manager himself pulled out a chair for Dylan before another employee hurried over to do the same for Becky.She was completely speechless as the treatment wasn't close to normal. She came from a very wealthy background and she had been to occasions with her father and never had she received this enormous generosity.It wasn't the kind of respect someone received because they had money, it was something else and it felt like the entire hotel had been instructed to treated Dylan differently.The manager handed over a leather menu with both hands."Our head chef is available today. If there's anything outside the menu you'd like prepared, simply let us know.""I'll just have the usual.""Very well, sir."She turned toward Becky with another smile. "And for the young lady?"She quickly scanned the menu and was surpri

    She kept on casting her amazingly seductive glances at Dylan until one of the city's most luxurious buildings appeared before them.Opulent Haven Hotel..!Its glass exterior reflected the afternoon sun beautifully coupled with the luxury cars filling the entrance, it was screaming royalty.People dressed in expensive suits and elegant gowns walked through the revolving doors..Becky parked the car."Let's go and enjoy ourselves." She looked at Dylan with a smile. She has been smiling all through their way there like had won a jackpot. But the moment they stepped into the lobby, the atmosphere shifted. The receptionist's eyes went wide and she instantly straightened her posture, bowing deeply. "Welcome back, sir! It is an absolute honor to have you with us today."Becky blinked, looking between the bowing staff and Dylan, who just gave a casual nod. 'Sir? Since when did hotel receptionists treat regular college guys with such royalty? Unless they know who Dylan is.' 'Wow... I shoul

    ......A few moments later, a white Mercedes-Benz rolled smoothly out of the school parking lot and inside was Becky and Dylan.Neither of them spoke for almost two minutes, just soft music playing through the speakers.Becky secretly glanced sideways, but Dylan was just so relaxed and almost impossible to read.'Why is this so difficult...?' She tightened both hands around the steering wheel.Back then, talking to Dylan had been effortless. Well, mostly because she never cared about what he thought. Right now, every word suddenly matters and the wrong one can jeopardize her only opportunity of spending time with him."So..." She cleared her throat, "I was considering Opulent Haven Hotel.... Heard they have very good food.""It's a ten-star rated hotel... Yeah, they have good food."She smiled proudly before she finally gasped what Dylan just said. "You've been there before?""A few times." He answered casually before breaking the eye contact.Becky smiled awkwardly as quickly ignored

  • CHAPTER 190

    Becky didn't say a word until they had completely left the school premises.The noisy campus gradually faded behind them, replaced by the quiet roadside lined with tall trees swaying gently in the afternoon breeze.Only then did she finally stop walking."Dylan..." She called out gently and softly.He turned around, but Becky lowered her head and avoided his eyes. She felt like Dylan could see through her soul with those piercing golden eyes of his."I'm... sorry." Tears were already piling up at the corner of her eyes, making her look really apologetic.Dylan looked at her quietly and his silence made her to take a deep breath before continuing."I'm sorry for everything...." No one has ever seen Becky speak with at least no atom of pride masking her voice, until now. She was completely defenseless and clearly far from arrogance. Anyone would believe that she's remorseful of everything."I know saying 'sorry' won't erase everything I did..." She forced out a bitter smile. "But I rea

    As Dylan and Becky stepped out of the classroom, the hallway immediately erupted into whispers that spread through the crowd like wildfire."Yo... is that Becky with Dylan?""No way! Wasn't she against him just a few days ago?""She's even holding onto him like they've been together forever!"Students instinctively stepped aside, creating a clear path without anyone telling them to. It almost looked like the hallway itself was welcoming them. Every pair of eyes followed their every move and some stared in complete disbelief, others admired the sight, while a few could barely hide the jealousy burning inside them.Dylan's calm and unbothered walk only made the scene more unbelievable. He didn't seem interested in proving anything to anyone, yet his quiet confidence spoke louder than words ever could. Becky, on the other hand, held firmly onto his arm without the slightest intention of letting go, intentionally fueling every rumor spreading across campus."Dylan's really the king...!!
