“I know… Still, I’d like to look around the area first!” replied Raquel. While she couldn’t afford to pay the rent for a unit in this place, she still wanted to have a look around the building. After all, a girl could dream. As the group continued hanging out around the area, a loud commotion could suddenly be heard coming from the end of the hallway. A suited middle-aged man could be seen walking into the building, and many of the customers present greeted him respectfully when he passed by them. This wasn’t just any regular person. He was the manager of Edificio! “That’s Edificio’s famous manager, Alexander Brookes!” explained Jefferson to the three girls. ‘So what if you know about him? He doesn’t even know that you exist!’ Raquel thought to herself, clearly still upset. While a lot of people seemed to want to talk to Mr. Brooks, all he did was wave them off. He seemed to be in quite a hurry. The fact that he was also looking around hinted that he was trying to find someth

By then, Marven had already gotten up from his seat and was now approaching them. He then shook hands with Alexander before saying, “Good day, Mr. Brookes! We’ve talked over the phone the day before. I tried calling you again earlier but you didn’t pick up!” “I’m terribly sorry Mr. Wadley! I had to resolve some of my daughter’s school matters just now! Please forgive my tardiness!” “Speaking of which, Mr. Wadley, you’ve told us to prepare a few documents the day before. Here’s the office area you were interested in and the 4D showroom model of the outlet,” said Mr. Brookes as he took a few documents out. “Before proceeding any further, here’s a general breakdown regarding the payment. The outlet and the office area combined will cost around thirty-five million dollars since you’re paying the full lease upfront. I’ve made sure to give you a few discounts as well!” “No problem. For now, let’s just have a seat first before discussing this any further!” replied Marven as he led M

The moment both of them opened the class door, they were immediately greeted by simultaneous screams and exclamations! “Gerald! Marven! Where did both of you go?” asked a few pretty girls as they surrounded the duo while trying their hardest to spark a conversation. All of them had their eyes on Gerald as though they were trying to seduce him. After all, everyone figured that it was Gerald who had given Marven a hand in this. While it was true that Marven was the director of the company, his main funds could only have come from Gerald. It was the reason why the girls were all trying to get into Gerald’s good books. Marven’s status had heightened greatly as well, and quite a few of his classmates had already approached him to try their luck at striking a conversation with him. While everyone was excitedly surrounding the two, Isabelle and Stella had completely opposite reactions. Both of them had darkened expressions on their faces. After all, they had bullied Gerald back when t

It was also at that moment when Warren noticed Fabian’s presence as well. He was equally as startled as Fabian was as the two eventually walked up to each other. “You’re… The champion of Sunnydale’s Youth Taekwondo team, right? I watched your national match last year!” said Fabian, respect reflected in his eyes. “That’s me, and you got second place in this year’s Salford Youth Taekwondo match, didn’t you? I heard it was a close spar and that you could easily have ended up being the champion as well!” replied Warren, still a little surprised to see him there. To think that both of them had been invited by the school to perform. It didn’t take long for the other contestants and the audience to begin looking in their direction after realizing that the two martial arts experts were having a conversation. “Yeah… I recall that you got to a pretty high rank in the nationals too. Truth be told, I’ve always wanted to spar with you. Looks like this will be a great opportunity to do jus

Even though the event was about to end, the crowd only seemed to have grown larger. Everyone wanted to watch the match between Warren and Fabian. The entire stadium was now so filled to the brim that in a way, it resembled a busy beehive. Warren and Fabian themselves were currently warming up. “Both of them are equally amazing! You know, Fabian’s the first runner up in our county while Warren’s the champion of Sunnydale! Their reputations are sky high!” “Oh? Well this is definitely going to be interesting then! I’m still supporting Fabian though! Let’s hope he brings honor to the Salford Province!” “I personally support Warren! He just looks so experienced!” Almost all of the audience members were discussing the lively event among themselves, and that included Gerald’s classmates. “Say Gerald, who do you think will win?” asked a few girls curiously as they surrounded him. “I think they’re both equally great! I really can’t say!” “Aww, come on! Don’t you know Warren to

“What exactly is your problem?” huffed Gerald. “Humph! So Fabian lost, big deal! If you think you’re that good then why don’t you get on that stage and fight instead?!” yelled Isabelle. It was crystal clear that she was simply directing all her anger and frustration on Gerald. She even picked her bottle up and tried splashing water all over Gerald! Thankfully, he was able to avoid getting drenched in time. However, he was now extremely tempted to give her a tight slap across the face for doing that. Luckily, their classmates stepped in and pulled Isabelle aside to prevent the situation from further escalating. Maia herself simply glanced at Gerald for a brief moment before returning her gaze to Warren who seemed to be exuding a radiant aura. She knew he wouldn’t let anyone down. At that moment, a judge walked up the stage and approached Warren before saying, “I’ve honestly never met someone your age to hold that much skill and grace! You truly are the champion of Sunnydale!

A short while later, Jasmine returned though this time, she was donning her uniform. Her hair had been tied into a ponytail and the whole look complemented her beauty perfectly. While most of the guys were gushing over her, many of the girls were green with envy. Even Gerald had his eyes fixated on Jasmine. He hadn’t really expected her to know how to fight. Seeing her, Warren began blindfolding himself with a black strip of fabric. His action immediately swooned the audience. How cool and manly! After making sure that the knot was tight enough, Warren then taunted, “Come at me, now!” While his actions were condescending, Jasmine didn’t say a word. Instead, she lunged at him with lightning-quick speed! With a loud thud, Warren was kicked right in the face! He wasn’t able to block or even dodge her attack. He only realized what was happening after being sent flying out of the ring and crashing hard onto the ground. Everything simply happened too quickly for him to even p

Wyatt was still busy helping Warren up when he heard his sister calling out to him. Realizing that someone was trying to pick a fight with her, he immediately felt a burning rage in his chest as he rushed toward them. He had already been embarrassed enough by the fact that he didn’t even have the courage to challenge a girl who was able to beat Warren up. After all, he was one of the best fighters in the school. Now that his sister was being bullied, he simply couldn’t allow his ego to be crushed any further. If he didn’t stand up for her now, he would definitely be the biggest disappointment to his family! “How dare you! Do you have a death wish or something?!” roared Wyatt as he launched himself forward, directing a kick at Gerald’s chest. “Oh god, Wyatt’s mad!” “Of course he is! Not only did that guy hit his sister, he’s probably equally as angry at himself for not accepting her challenge!” “I know right? Wyatt’s definitely going to take it all out on that guy!” Ever
