Hannah bit her lip, her eyes filled with tears of both frustration and fear. At that moment, she was genuinely terrified.Troy took a deep breath, then averted his gaze and turned to Connor. "Mr. Connor, you can get up now. I'll let your family go this time."Connor's face lit up with excitement. He quickly stood and respectfully handed Troy the Dragonroot Fruit. Troy opened it, revealing a small greenish fruit inside. He nodded, then stowed it away carefully. Glancing at Madeline and Timothy, he added, "From now on, keep better control over your daughter. If you won't educate her, I will!"With those final words, Troy turned and left, taking his parents with him.As their figures disappeared from view, the Pierpoints were left in stunned silence.Hannah wiped away her tears, her expression a mixture of confusion and bitterness. Meanwhile, Timothy and Madeline stood nearby with somber faces, unsure of what to say next.The family's entire security team had been wiped out comp

May looked at Troy in disbelief. "Where did you get the money for a big mansion? Did you—" "I have money!" Troy smiled and pulled out a bank card, handing it to his parents. "There's money on this card. You can spend it however you want—it'll last you a lifetime." It was one of Troy's secondary cards, loaded with a million. That would more than cover his parents for the rest of their lives. Troy made a silent vow to himself that he would ensure his parents lived comfortably from here on out. May looked at the card, her eyes welling up with tears. "All these years, we never knew what you were doing. We know it hasn't been easy for you to make money. But listen, you should keep this money. Your dad and I can still pick up odd jobs and earn a little. We can buy you a small apartment, maybe pay for your wedding." Troy smiled, though it was a bit bitter. "I told you. I have money—so much money that it'll last our family for generations. All you need to do is trust me and ta

Irene was three years younger than Troy. In the three years that had passed, she had blossomed into a graceful young woman. Her hair was tied up in a simple ponytail, her skin pale and flawless, and her features delicate and beautiful. She stood quietly in the crowd, looking sweet and kind, with an air of calmness that exuded gentleness and composure. Seeing how much his sister had grown, Troy felt an overwhelming sense of joy deep in his heart. But as he watched her more closely, his brow furrowed. Among the students, Irene's figure seemed too fragile. She wasn't surrounded by friends like the other students, who were laughing and chatting in groups. Instead, she walked alone. Her face, a picture of quiet beauty, betrayed a hint of sadness. Her clothes, too, stood in sharp contrast to those of her peers. The pale, slightly faded T-shirt, the simple pair of jeans, and the cheap sneakers she wore all made her seem out of place among the well-dressed students around her.

Layla ground her teeth together, her voice dripping with venom. "You broke wench, how dare you talk back! You clearly bumped into me. I bet you're jealous of me because you see me dressed in branded clothes. That's why you spilled my coffee. You're a terrible person, inside and out!"With that, Layla turned to the crowd of onlookers, her anger flaring. "Everyone, come take a look! This poor girl is so nasty! She's jealous of me just because I can afford designer clothes, and now she's trying to ruin my outfit by spilling my coffee! Come look at this disgusting, narrow-minded girl!"Tears welled up in Irene's eyes. With a choked voice, she whispered, "I didn't. I really didn't bump into you.""Still lying, huh?" Layla shouted, her voice full of fury. "Lying won't get you anywhere! Listen up! Today, you either pay for this dress, or you'll never leave here. I'll post about this on the university's blog so everyone can see what kind of person you are!"Around them, the crowd start

This was all the money Irene had earned little by little from collecting bottles and selling fruit in her spare time.Wiping her tears, she carefully handed the money to Layla, her eyes red from crying. "Here... I'll give you 30 bucks now. I just don't have that much money right now.""Get lost!" Layla slammed Irene's hand away, her face twisted in disgust. Irene lost her grip, and the bills scattered across the ground. With a look of pure disdain, Layla sneered, "Is this a joke to you? Do you really think I care about 30 dollars? I don't want your money anymore. What I want is for you to grovel and apologize!" As Irene stared at the bills scattered all over the floor, the tears welled up again. This was her food money for the entire month. She wiped her eyes and hurriedly crouched down, gathering the crumpled bills one by one.Some of the money had fallen at the feet of a nearby person. The person quickly kicked it aside and scoffed, "Picking up a dollar bill like this.

When Layla met Troy's icy glare, she flinched, a shiver running through her. For a moment, she felt a chill in her chest.The next second, she recovered and sneered, "What are you staring at? Be careful, or your eyes might fall out!"She scanned Troy up and down with a look of disgust, and scoffed. "No wonder you two are siblings. You're both pathetic! Judging by what you're wearing, I bet you can't even afford a pair of my socks.""My sister was walking, and you bumped into her. Then you twisted the story and blamed her. You're a liar," Troy said, his voice calm but firm.Layla's face flushed with anger, and she shouted, "Shut up! Your sister bumped into me, and now you're trying to blame me? Listen up! I'm not scared of you. You're a nobody."Troy shook his head and pulled out his phone, opening the video he had taken earlier.Some curious onlookers crowded around to see and immediately spoke up. "Whoa, Layla did bump into Irene first! Irene was just walking—she didn't even

"Really, do you think you're something special? You even dared to slap her! You're asking for trouble. Take a good look in the mirror—do you really think you can compare to Layla's family? Look at what you have, and look at what she has!"Mocking voices erupted from the crowd. Yet as Troy's eyes swept over them, the chatter quieted immediately. Though no one dared speak, there were plenty of cold smirks. Everyone was waiting for Troy to make his move, especially those who were already siding with Layla. At this moment, they hoped they could curry favor with her.On the ground, Layla was seething with anger. Her teeth were clenched so hard, they drew blood as she hissed through them, "Irene, you and your brother are as good as dead! I've already called my parents. They're on their way right now. Let's see who's going to save you today!"Irene shuddered and gripped Troy's shirt tightly. Though she was genuinely scared, she felt a little calmer with Troy by her side.A moment lat

Troy looked at Lionel, his face as calm as a still lake."Yes," he said, his voice even and detached. "What's the problem?"Lionel's face twisted with anger. "Do you know who I am? How dare you lay a hand on my daughter! You're signing your death sentence!""I don't know who you are. Your daughter crossed a line first. Why should I care who you are?" Troy replied flatly, his tone unshaken.Lionel paused, momentarily taken aback. A second later, a wicked smile spread across his face. "Very well. I've lived this long, but I've never met anyone brave enough to speak to me this way." He eyed Troy and Irene with disdain, then sneered, "You two clearly come from a poor family. Do you see those cars behind me? They could crush you both without a second thought."Layla, who had been holding her face, walked over while still holding her cheek. She began to yell at Troy, "You two poor losers! My parents' cars could crush you! Useless trash!"Troy tilted his neck, squinting slightly, th

Troy stared at Hannah, a sudden feeling of disgust washing over him. He shot a cold glance at the two of them. Not wanting to engage in conversation, he turned to leave. Just as he lifted his foot to walk away, the man beside Hannah scoffed. "Is this the Troy you told me about? What a pathetic guy."Troy slowly stopped in his tracks and turned to face the man. The man was dressed in a sharp suit and wore gold-rimmed glasses, his hair slicked back. His skin was pale; although his features were handsome, there was an air of coldness about him. He was Victor, a member of the Hurlbutt family from Silverton. Though the Hurlbutts weren't part of the Nine Great Families, they still held considerable power. Victor was also one of Hannah's suitors and harbored feelings for her.Seeing Troy stare at him, Victor sneered; his arrogance was clearly on display. "What are you looking at? Got a problem?""You just called me pathetic, didn't you?" Troy's voice was calm, but there was an ed

Troy remained silent. Joanna twisted her small hands together, a look of regret crossing her face. "I'm sorry... It's my fault..." Troy, at that moment, extinguished his cigarette and suddenly turned to look at Joanna. Before she could even react, he placed a soft kiss on her forehead. Joanna froze for a moment, and Troy smiled lightly. "I'm not angry. I understand how you feel. It's perfectly normal if you can't accept it yet—after all, we've only known each other for a day."Joanna's heart stirred as she gazed at him; a hint of something new flashed in her eyes, and a genuine smile appeared on her face. "Well, I hope there will come a day when you'll make me willing to give myself to you." Troy chuckled, walked over to the balcony, and glanced back at her. "I'm gonna go. Goodnight." As his words faded, a breeze swept through, and Troy was already gone from the room.Joanna walked to the balcony, watching his retreating figure. A strange expression flickered in her eyes...

Joanna couldn't believe Troy had earned five million in one night so easily.She furrowed her brows, her tone laced with concern. "You didn't do anything illegal, did you?""Of course not. Every penny is legitimate. It's all from them," Troy assured her, his voice steady."You promise you're not lying to me?" Joanna's eyes flickered with suspicion.Troy gave a soft chuckle. "I'd never lie to you. You're my wife."Joanna's cheeks flushed a soft pink. "I'm not your wife," she muttered, looking away."Who's my wife, then?" Troy's eyes twinkled with mischief, his gaze locking with hers. Joanna quickly looked down, feeling a surge of heat rise to her face. The mood shifted, growing heavier. The two of them were positioned in a way that felt far too intimate—Troy on top, Joanna beneath him. She quickly realized what was happening, and her face burned with embarrassment. "G-Get off me," she stammered."I'm not getting off," Troy replied, grinning. "Remember what you promised me t

"Wh-who are you? You'd better not do anything rash!" Joanna said, her voice trembling as she lay still in the dark. The fear in her chest was nearly suffocating.Troy deliberately lowered his voice, his words dripping with menace. "What if I do? What are you going to do about it? Are you going to scream for help?"Joanna's face drained of color. "Please, don't do this. Is it money you want? I can give you money. I'll give you whatever you want!""I don't want money." Troy's voice was dark and close, his breath warm against her neck. "I want you."Joanna's heart raced, and she clutched the bed sheets tightly. Her voice was barely above a whisper. "I'm begging you... I'll give you money. Just let me go..."Troy's voice was steady. "I already told you, I don't want money. I just want you to spend the night with me.""No... I can't... Please, I'm begging you." Joanna's voice wavered, and she was on the verge of tears.Troy's voice hardened. "Why is it impossible?"Joanna instinctiv

"Besides, that Troy is poor as can be, and his family is as low as it gets. How could he possibly be good enough for the Skeldons? How could he be good enough for you?" Lillian scoffed and crossed her arms. "I'm telling you this right now. I'll only approve of you being with Howell. As for Troy, he doesn't deserve a single thing from the Skeldons!"Joanna sighed deeply. "Mom, Troy and I are already engaged. Grandpa insists that we're together. There's not much you can say that'll change that. And honestly, I don't have feelings for Howell."Lillian shook her head. "Now you don't, but you can give it time. The Sowles are a big family, and you shouldn't miss out on this opportunity. Trust me. I'm just looking out for you."With that, Lillian gave her daughter a warm smile. "Alright, sweetheart. Go to bed now. I won't say any more, but you know what's best."Joanna shook her head. "I'll sleep in a bit. I've got some things to do."Lillian raised an eyebrow. "What things?"Joanna b

When Troy's gaze shifted back to Khloe, she suddenly felt uncomfortable. "Mr. Ragnar," she said, flustered, "why are you staring at me again?""Is it so wrong to look at how beautiful you are?" Troy teased with a grin."Yes, it is," Khloe replied, her tone firm. "I only allow my future husband to look at me like that.""Well, in that case, I'll just be your future husband," Troy shot back with a mischievous glint in his eyes.Khloe slammed on the brakes, the car coming to a halt as she turned to him, her eyes wide. "Really?"Troy rubbed his nose and chuckled. "Just kidding. We've just met, and you want me to be your husband already?"Khloe pouted, giving him a pointed, almost reproachful look before she started the car again silently.Half an hour later, Troy had Khloe drop him off near the Skeldons' estate. As the car came to a stop, he flashed her a warm smile. "Drive safely on the way back. If anything comes up, call me."Khloe shot him a playful look. "Call you? What are

"I…" Khloe's eyes were filled with a hint of panic, her voice trembling as she spoke. Earlier, she had indeed intended to provoke Troy, just as Frank had suggested. It was only meant to be a harmless test—just to see if Troy was even remotely interested in her. She never expected things to escalate this quickly. How could she let this happen? Sure, Troy was handsome, young, and successful—but she was still a virgin! How could she possibly lose herself to him on the very first meeting? Khloe bit her lip, feeling a wave of fear wash over her. Her eyes darted away as she whispered, "Y-You should sit down." "Now you want me to sit down? Weren't you just teasing me a minute ago?" Troy's large hand slid up Khloe's smooth thigh. He leaned in slowly, pretending to kiss her. Khloe gasped softly, her heart racing as she watched Troy come closer. She raised her hand to stop him, but how could she possibly hold him back? He was getting closer and closer, and she found herse

Troy quickly averted his gaze, but even that fleeting glance sent a restless heat simmering through him.A moment later, Khloe's melodious voice broke the silence. "Mr. Ragnar?"Troy stiffened, clearing his throat. "Hm? What is it?"A long red light stretched ahead, and Khloe brought the car to a stop. She turned to him, lips curling in a knowing smirk. "Do you like my legs?"Troy's mind blanked. Had she noticed?He rubbed his nose, feigning nonchalance. "Yeah, I do. But next time, try black stockings. I prefer those."A flush crept up Khloe's neck, her cheeks blooming pink. She bit her lip. "You…like stockings?"Troy grinned. "Yeah. A lot."Khloe exhaled sharply, then suddenly hit the gas. The car lurched forward, veering onto a quiet side road before jerking to a halt.Troy blinked. "Ms. Langstaff, what are you—"Before he could finish, Khloe pushed her seat all the way back, reclining slightly. With deliberate slowness, she lifted one long, shapely leg and draped it over t

Godfrey was taken aback—but not because of the money. What shocked him was the fact that Frank was giving away the Soulvine, a treasure he had kept for many years.However, Godfrey didn't dare protest. He immediately went upstairs. A moment later, he returned with a small box made of black wood. He presented it to Troy with a respectful gesture, smiling. "Mr. Ragnar, this is a token of my father's appreciation. Please accept it."Troy looked at the Soulvine inside the box, feeling a slight warmth rising in his chest. This Soulvine contained spiritual energy from the earth and sky, which could help with his hidden injuries.He gave Frank a deep look. "This Soulvine is a rare treasure. Are you sure you want to give it to me?"Frank chuckled. "No matter how precious this Soulvine is, it can't compare to my life. You saved me, Mr. Ragnar. Giving you this Soulvine is the least I could do."Troy smiled. "Alright. I'll accept it, but I won't take something of value from the Langstaff
