Roger struggled to get back on his feet, his body trembling with rage. He clenched his fists and growled, "Troy, I suggest you apologize right now, or I'll make sure you regret it. One day, when I'm in a position of power, I'll make sure your family regrets crossing me. By then, you'll be begging me for mercy!"Troy scoffed, a smug grin spreading across his face. "You? In power? The best you'll manage is being the head of a public restroom. That's the highest your family's going to get."Roger's face turned red with fury. "You little... I'm gonna kill you!" He was about to launch at Troy when he saw Troy's fist moving in his direction. He froze.Troy narrowed his eyes and repeated coolly, "I'm giving you one more chance. Are you going to get out of my way?""N-No!" Roger stammered. "What do you think you're doing?"Troy's patience thinned; he moved toward Roger, his steps heavy with intent.Roger's expression shifted from anger to fear as Troy closed the gap between them. "Wh

Gordon glanced at Troy before tapping his tobacco pipe thoughtfully. "Have you sorted out your work situation yet?" he asked.Troy grinned. "I don't need to work."Gordon hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, you still need to find a job. Otherwise, the neighbors will start gossiping. I know you might have some money, but a man can't just sit around all day, right? Do you remember your Uncle Terence?"Troy blinked, caught off guard. "Yeah, I remember him. Isn't he in business?"Gordon smiled. "He is. He got into business a few years ago and made a bit of money. Now, his business is really growing. If you're interested, I can talk to him and see if he can help you out. Also, he has some connections in Silverton. His daughter is working at one of the hospitals there as a doctor. I'll ask him if he can pull a few strings for you."Troy chuckled, shaking his head. "To be honest, I don't need a job, and money's not an issue. If I really wanted a job, I could even be the mayo

On the other end of the line, Joanna blushed like a ripened tomato. She gritted her teeth and snapped, "Don't call me honey!""Alright, fine," Troy replied. "I won't call you that, but I'll go tell your grandpa it's because you told me not to.""Y-You shameless jerk! How dare you!""A successful man can't be shy. A man with too much pride will never get far. You know, they say a man isn't worth loving if he's not a little bad," Troy quipped, his tone filled with mischief.Joanna's eyes nearly went black from anger, her face flushed with both embarrassment and frustration. "Stop with the crude nonsense!" she snapped."Alright, honey. Why did you call?" Troy teased, a grin tugging at his lips.Joanna rolled her eyes, pretending she hadn't heard him call her that. Reluctantly, she mumbled, "Well... Grandpa wants you to come over for lunch tomorrow. We're having guests.""Got it! I'll be there on time," Troy replied."Don't be so casual about it. Do you even know who's coming tom

The old man at the stall was dressed in a rough burlap tunic. The sign above his booth read, [Fortune Telling].Troy instantly saw through this as a typical scam. Grinning, he walked over to the old man without hesitation and asked, "How about selling me this sign?" The old man squinted suspiciously at Troy, frowning. "You brat! This sign is my livelihood. I can't just sell it to you. Move along."Troy smiled, and casually pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket. "I'll give you 200 bucks if you sell it to me. If you won't sell, I'll just leave." The old man's expression immediately shifted. His face brightened, and he chuckled, "Well, well! Young friend, you're so generous. Since you're so sincere, take it. It's all yours."The old man eagerly grabbed the cash and quickly stepped aside to clear the stall. Troy grinned. He walked to the booth, picked up a brush, and wrote several large characters on the sign. [I Can Answer and Solve Everything in the Universe!]The call

A strange feeling stirred in their hearts.Troy quickly averted his gaze; he shut his eyes again and settled into a calm, meditative state.A faint flicker of surprise crossed the woman's eyes as she observed this exchange. In a cool tone, she said to the driver, "Go check out that stall."She gestured lightly toward Troy's stand.The driver was momentarily taken aback, but wasted no time in steering the vehicle toward the stall.The crowd parted to make way as the convoy slowly approached Troy's stand. Troy, who had been sitting silently with his eyes closed, finally opened them when he saw the vehicles stopping in front of his stall. His expression remained unreadable.The convoy halted, and a group of bodyguards surrounded the area. The driver of the Cullinan opened the car door, and the woman emerged. Under the protective escort of her bodyguards, she walked forward slowly.Troy's curiosity piqued; a playful smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he observed the woman,

Troy lazily lifted an eyebrow. "Sure, but I don't usually step in unless the price is right. And when I do, it's not cheap. Can you afford it?"The woman's gaze sharpened slightly. "How much are you asking for, exactly?"Troy raised five fingers. The woman nodded, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Fifty thousand? That's doable."Troy shook his head, a faint smile playing at the corner of his lips. "Five million.""Five million?!" The woman blinked in surprise. Her family was wealthy, but asking for five million right off the bat? It seemed outrageous. Was this man out of his mind?The crowd around them began murmuring in disbelief. "This guy's out of his mind! Five million? Is he serious? That's outrageous!""Yeah! Who asks for five million like that? We usually just scam people of a few hundred at most, but he's asking for five million! He must've gone mad!" The bystanders laughed and shook their heads, while the woman's face paled slightly. Five million was no small sum.S

The area felt like a quiet suburban neighborhood by the Silverton coast, with few buildings around. In the distance, the sound of a foghorn echoed as a ferry passed by. Before them stood a seaside villa.Troy raised an eyebrow, taking in the surroundings with a sharp, careful gaze.Khloe, standing nearby, said calmly, "Please, follow me."Troy squinted slightly, saying nothing more as he fell into step behind her. He was curious about what was going on tonight.They entered the estate, where a large villa stood at the center. Dim lights glowed in front of the villa, casting a soft, almost eerie glow. Soon, they arrived at the front door.Khloe pushed it open and gestured for Troy to enter. "Please, go right in."Troy flicked away his cigarette and ground it out with his shoe, then followed her inside.The interior of the villa was brightly lit and lavishly decorated, exuding an air of grandeur. It was everything you'd expect from a luxurious home. Troy frowned, sensing tha

"Wait a moment," Godfrey said. Troy halted in his tracks, turning to look at Godfrey. "If you have something to say, just say it."Godfrey was momentarily taken aback, his face flushing with frustration.Yet, he kept his composure and said, "I'm not a narrow-minded person. I need to make some things clear with you. First of all, you're too young. I don't believe you can solve the strange issues plaguing my family. Secondly, my father's condition is serious. I can't just trust anyone to handle it."Next to them, Khloe sighed softly before addressing Troy. "Please don't be too hard on my dad. He's very devoted to my grandfather and is just worried that something bad would happen to him. Could you at least show him a bit of what you can do? Maybe that will help him trust you more."She glanced meaningfully at Troy, testing him to see if he really had the skills he claimed. Troy chuckled softly, understanding the family's intentions. "Sure. I'll show you what I can do. Let's se

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
