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

Everyone stood frozen, their expressions a mix of disbelief and shock as they watched the spectacle unfold.Someone gasped in awe. "Wow… These are all customized Rolls-Royces! These cost millions each!" "This is insane! Who's coming here? I've never seen such a grand display in my entire life!" another murmured, eyes wide.The convoy slowly rolled in, making its way toward the crowd, and then came to a halt right in front of them.Layla was just as stunned, her voice barely a whisper. "No way… So many Rolls-Royces! Am I dreaming? I've never even been inside one of these!"All eyes were on the convoy as the cars approached the school gate and stopped. The doors opened in complete silence, and a group of men in black suits stepped out in unison. They walked directly toward Troy.The group approached Troy, then bowed in unison and shouted together, "Mr. Ragnar! Sorry we're late!"The crowd instantly fell silent, the noise fading as everyone watched in stunned awe.Layla's pupils

At that moment, none of the Crosses doubted that Troy had the power to kill all of them without a second thought.Cold sweat dripped down Lionel's face. He suddenly dropped to his knees, his expression full of fear and regret. "Young man, I'm sorry!" he said, his voice trembling. "Today's incident was all my daughter's fault! I... I'll grovel and apologize!"With that, he actually lay on his belly, crying as he begged for mercy.Witnessing this, Layla felt a rush of tears in her eyes. She had never experienced anything like this before. Seeing her father, who always seemed so strong, groveling, shattered her. In that instant, her mental defense crumbled, and a genuine fear gripped her heart.But then, Demi suddenly shot up, her face twisted with fury. "You brat, don't push your luck!" she screamed. "We've apologized, and you're still not satisfied? We're the Crosses! Do you think you can just harass us? If you want a fight, let's do it!"Lionel gasped in horror. Instinctivel

After Layla and her family left, Troy turned his gaze toward the group Draco had sent. With a calm expression, he said, "You can all head back now. Thanks for coming.""It's no trouble, Mr. Ragnar!" Troy waved them off; they bowed respectfully before leaving. Irene stood nearby, her mind blank as she stared at Troy in disbelief.Troy turned to her, gently ruffling her hair with a soft smile. "What's the matter?""Troy, how—"Troy chuckled lightly. "I know what you're going to ask. All you need to know is that I'm here for you. No one will ever hurt you again. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you."Tears filled Irene's eyes. She hugged Troy tightly, her voice shaking as she murmured, "Troy… It's been three years. I've missed you so much."Troy gently patted Irene's back, feeling a strange ache in his chest. He wiped away the tears from her face and looked at her worn-out clothes—her faded shirt and shoes that were clearly out of style. His heart tightened, and he said s

"Troy... Let's just go. I… I don't want to be here. Everything is so expensive. There's a clothing mall back near our place. We can go there instead."Troy froze for a moment, his gaze turning complicated.What Irene was talking about was a small, local market in the old town. It was filled with street vendors, selling clothes and shoes for a few dollars each. Troy realized that Irene was trying to save him money. His nose tingled, and his eyes started to burn with emotion."Irene, I have plenty of money now. And besides, this entire mall is mine. You can have anything you want," he said, gently grabbing her hand and leading her confidently into the luxury shopping center.As she watched Troy walk ahead, Irene felt deeply moved. She thought that perhaps Troy really had made money over the past three years, but there was no way he could afford to buy this place. After all, this mall was worth millions! She figured Troy's words were just meant to ease her worries. Irene didn't

Troy shook his head. He looked at the saleswoman, his gaze turning cold."We're here to shop. Why won't you serve us? Who made that rule?"The saleswoman couldn't hold back a laugh, her smile turning mocking."Fine, you really want me to say it out loud? You two clearly don't look like people who can afford anything in here. The cheapest thing in this store costs over a thousand dollars! This place isn't for bumpkins like you two. You'd better not waste our time."She gave Irene a quick, judgmental look, her gaze lingering on Irene's patched-up jeans. A scornful sneer escaped her lips.Irene heard the derisive laugh and immediately lowered her head, feeling her face turn red with embarrassment.Troy's expression darkened, and his voice turned icy. "I can afford anything in this store. Move out of the way! I don't want to deal with you right now."The saleswoman raised her eyebrows, her disdain clear."Wow, you're really shameless! I told you, we don't serve your kind. This plac

Cameron's eyes widened in surprise. "It really is you! You just disappeared three years ago—where have you been all this time?"Troy smiled. "Some things were going on, and I didn't have time to say goodbye. I've been away, but I just got back to Silverton a couple of days ago.""I see. Well, it's good to have you back."Cameron smiled knowingly, taking a moment to study Troy. When her gaze landed on his shabby clothes, she paused for a moment, her expression faltering slightly. It seemed Troy didn't have it easy these past few years. Cameron averted her eyes quickly, pretending she hadn't noticed, and gave him another smile. "By the way, I haven't asked—who's this with you? Your sister?"Troy grinned. "Yep, my sister. I brought her here to shop for some clothes.""Well, why aren't you going inside? I've seen you standing out here for a while now."Troy glanced at the saleswoman nearby and shook his head. "This saleswoman said she won't serve us.""Won't serve you?" Camero

Just as Cameron finished speaking, her phone rang. She answered it, but after a brief moment, her brows furrowed. "Alright, I understand. I'll head over there right away." She hung up, and before Troy could say anything, she said, "Troy, give me your number." Troy was taken aback for a moment, then gave her his number. Cameron dialed it before hanging up. With a hint of regret in her voice, she said, "I have something urgent to deal with, so I'll have to leave now. I was planning to take you two around, but, well…" As she spoke, she took out a bank card from her purse and handed it to Troy with a smile. "There's some money on this card. I promised to buy Irene something tonight, and I don't want to break that promise. Take it. When you've picked out what you want, just go ahead and swipe it." Troy blinked in surprise, then quickly shook his head. "What are you doing? Keep the card. We can't accept your money." However, Cameron slipped the card into his pocket without sa

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
