Chapter 38: Another Young Master
AS AUGUST heard that statement, his brows immediately furrowed as confusion consumed him. He wanted to know first who was the guy behind him, and on who he was pertaining to. He wanted to turn his head but he couldn’t. Mateo’s punch on his stomach hurt him, big time. He would need another minute to calm down. “Young master.” Mateo immediately stood in front of August and bowed his head as a sign of greeting. ‘Young master? Is he the one who instructed August to attack me?’ August asked at the back of his mind. He tried moving but it was to no avail. Mateo was surely a skilled fighter. He didn’t beat him up with multiple punches— but it was those punches hitting on his core, making him stumble on the floor, growling. “I think you have beaten him just enough so he would listen to me,” the man said in an intimidating tone like he wasn’t talking to Mateo— but to him. ‘Fuck.’ August could only curse at the back of his mind. His neck went stiff, the same as his body. He knew that some
Chapter 39: Greeting
“SAPPHIRE,” Harvey mumbled, gritting his teeth in annoyance as he snapped his neck, trying to calm himself down. It was Sapphire Remington who dared to interrupt him from hurting August, and also the one who threw the dagger to stab his right-hand man. He closed his eyes for a while and did three deep breaths before he looked at Sapphire. Sapphire, on the other hand, felt the opposite of annoyance— enjoyment. Her eyes flickered between Harvey and Mateo, and a wicked smile appeared on her lips as she noticed how Mateo flinched in pain because of what she did.“Why are you here?” Harvey asked. Still, annoyance was evident in his voice.“Uh, because this is my house?” Sapphire answered sarcastically as a smirk escaped from her lips. Both her hands were crossed onto her chest as she raised a brow. “And I was just looking for a place where I could rest. I didn’t even know that something was going on here.”Of course, it was a lie.And of course, Harvey wasn’t stupid to know it.‘Liar
Chapter 40: The Enemy of My Enemy Is My Friend
“YOU DISRESPECTFUL and ungrateful child! Don’t you have any manners on how to be a good visitor when you’re in someone’s house? Did Sherry teach you that way?!” Charles scolded Harvey, who held onto his right cheek as his skin felt stung. "No, dad—" Harvey was about to explain, but Charles continued interrupting him. "Do you think I wouldn't know what you did to August?!" Charles was mad, and it was evident in his expression and his voice as well. "Do you take me as a fool?! Imbecile!" And in another second, Charles slapped Harvey on the left cheek this time. Harvey gasped as he felt how strong the force was on Charles' hand. He wanted to say something but decided not to speak as Charles gave him a deadly gaze. "It's not like that—" Harvey's explanation stopped mid-way when he realized something. "Why are you taking that bastard's side over me, dad?" "Bastard?" Charles' grip on his crane tightened. "Be careful with your words, Harvey. Or I might remove all your wealth right now."
Chapter 41: The First Quarrel
“YOU SMELL good.”Bruce and Samantha were lying on the king-sized white bed while watching an erotic movie. Samantha didn’t like the movie that much, but she liked the fact that Bruce’s hand was slowly entering her nightgown, caressing her right breast with his palm.“Oh,” Samantha mumbled as Bruce’s face leaned onto her neck, and after a while, she felt Bruce lick her skin— slowly and passionately as he gave him small love bites.Samantha arched her back in pleasure. Bruce’s hands started to roam around her body. She knew where their make-out would go, given the movie that was playing in the background. She was willing to give herself all over again as Bruce was also ready to give his wealth in exchange.Yet, a loud phone call disturbed their almost hot, steamy night.“Fuck.”Bruce, who was also in the momentum of giving Samantha a hard bang, groaned in annoyance as he stood up and got his phone on the side table to check who was calling him this late at night.“Could you please not
Chapter 42: Two Hundred Thousand Dollars Bag
TOMORROW MORNING, Bruce and Samantha were in a shopping mall. Samantha roamed around the stores looking for a bag since Bruce promised him to get her one. They were happily shopping together like Bruce didn’t shout at her yesterday.Well, she decided to forgive him quickly, even without an apology, because of the bag that he’ll buy for her.Samantha wasn’t picky when it comes to bags— in fact, she loved everything.But the event that they were going to the next month was something she couldn’t take easily. It was like a reunion for all the rich people within the top eleven to top fifty, and since the Sandoval family was in the top fifty, they were invited to the party, and Bruce would let her join as his fiance.“This looks good,” Samantha told Bruce who had his hands in his pocket while roaming the place. They were now in a Gucci department store. Samantha pointed at the black bag which was covered by a squared glass and imagined that she was holding it in her hands. She smiled in
Chapter 43: Black Card? Fact-Check?
“AUGUST?!” Samantha shouted in shock as she almost stumbled on the floor. Gladly, Bruce was behind her, acting all pretentious and sweet in front of the two salesladies, as he held onto her back to prevent her from falling. Her jaws almost fell on the floor as she couldn’t believe who was the guy the saleslady pointed at earlier. At first, she wasn’t able to recognize August because his facial appearance, and also his body build, changed a lot. He wasn’t like the August she knew back then. But she recognized the cap he was wearing. ‘It was the cap I gave him on his birthday,’ Samantha thought as she blinked twice. She felt something poked into her heart as August still cherished the gifts she had been given to him, although it wasn’t sincere. Those are the things Bruce didn't do to her when they became engaged. Bruce only wanted her body, and she only wanted his wealth. It may be painful to Samantha, but she knew that she just needed to endure, and everything will be fine. “S
Chapter 44: Then, Try Me
“THE CARD was named after him…” Mina trailed off as her eyes flickered between Bruce, Samantha, and Triana— which all were giving a deadly gaze at her. Mina doesn’t have any characteristics to judge someone based on their appearance. However, as a part of the protocol, and since August was going to buy the most expensive bag, she needed to do a fact check. And with that, she realized that it was impossible for the card to be stolen if it was named after August in the first place. “Impossible!” Bruce exclaimed as Mina’s words made his blood boil. “An ordinary man like him couldn’t even have the right to touch a black card like this!” Without permission, Bruce grabbed the black card from Mina’s hand. He looked at it with frustration, because August had an expensive card like that, and amusement because it was his first time to see such a luxurious card that costs millions of dollars, at least. “Are you sure that it’s his, Mina?” Triana answered back. She crossed her arms and raised
Chapter 45: Major Shareholder
LITTLE DID everyone knows, the Remington Corporation was the major shareholder in this store, and Charles named the shares under August. He could even not pay for the bags if he wanted to. However, Charles gave him a black card that he could spend because of the major improvements he had in his first training. Besides that, he doesn’t want to showcase to everyone about his newly owned company. August dialed his phone and called someone. For August, women like Triana make the world worse— people who base their kindness on someone’s worth were worthless themselves. They were the reason why people try hard to be worthy even though their existence was already worthy from the start. “Hello?” August greeted as the person on the other line answered. His glance flickered on Bruce and Samantha before he spoke. “Are you busy? Can you do a little favor for me?” “Anything for the Remington family, young master,” Zeke, who was currently at a business meeting, responded. “What is it?” Zeke, w
