Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 119

After all, Casper knew that everyone was well aware of his status, and that was a good thing for him. He did not want his background revealed that early.

Fabian’s definitely a problem, but that’s okay. To Casper, Fabian wasn’t someone that was capable of causing any major ruckus. Even if Fabian knew about his identity, the former would still keep it a secret for his own pride’s sake. That was exactly what Casper wanted.

Letting Silas inform the Firewolf Chamber this way was the fastest and most efficient way available, despite the fact that it might cause them to put up their guard.

However, as time passed, Silas’ expression grew darker and darker.

“Is this brat really the owner of the Tycoon? How’s that possible?” Silas cursed.

Nevertheless, all the evidence available at the moment all pointed to one thing, that Casper Simpson was, without a doubt, the person in charge of the five-star hotel.

Silas’ heart sank. He was astonished, but not enough to be struck with fear.

His position as a member of the Firewolf Chamber of Commerce gave him a major confidence boost. Hence, Casper being the owner of the Tycoon was actually a good thing for him. That was because it would imply that he could receive more money from the hotel.

“Ha! Even if you are the owner, it doesn’t mean that you’re excluded from making offerings to the Firewolf Chamber! And you’re asking for compensation? Are you dumb? Do you need me to knock some sense into you?” Silas said.

“Does that mean you’re not going to pay up, then?” Casper asked.

“Hmph! Seems like you have no intentions of complying, huh? We won’t be holding back then. I’ll definitely make you regret making this foolish decision!”

With that, Silas and his gang dispersed.

Things are just getting started! Casper thought.

Meanwhile, the Firewolf Chamber of Commerce was in the midst of cooking up their own sinister plot.

“Connor! You need to help me out here! The owner of Tycoon’s really a son of a bi*ch! He actually wants us, the Firewolf Chamber to compensate for his loss! That’s just preposterous!” Silas was mad. Thus, he went on to exaggerate about what happened, making up stories and adding his own spin into it.

Connor was considered a prominent member of the Firewolf Chamber. He valued people around him and was very vindictive, not to mention being a remarkable fighter. He had personally destroyed most of the Firewolf Chamber’s oppositions and ended countless lives.

“He’d need to go through me if he’s thinking of putting his hands on anyone in the association! Don’t worry, Silas. I guarantee that Casper’s not going to be standing for much longer!” Connor ended his sentence with a sinister grin.

He knew Silas’ story was modified, but that it did not matter. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

To him, anyone who dared go against the association must face the consequences. Anything that would threaten the Firewolf Chamber must never be allowed to exist.

On the other hand, Casper and the lot were heading back to school from the hotel. Everyone was awestruck by what he just did.

“Hahaha! Casper, you should’ve seen the looks on their faces when they realized you were the owner! Especially Fabian’s! I’d wish I could’ve taken a photo and frame it. It was so good! Hahaha!” Felix did not expect Casper to pull off something like that.

However, Colton was concerned. “Casper, is it really okay? Won’t Silas exact revenge?”

“Let him! I’ve already done all the necessary preparations. I’m just waiting for them to fall for it!” Casper smiled.

“Alright, if you say so. If you need help, let us know!”

“I will, don’t worry.”

None of his friends knew about the Firewolf Chamber of Commerce, and Casper had no intention of letting them know. Nonetheless, he knew that his friends had his back even if he was up against the Firewolf Chamber.

These are what true friends meant; brothers that would do anything for each other! We’ll be brothers for life!

Just then, Casper’s phone vibrated.

It was a message from Giselle, asking Casper to go to her room when he was free.

“Who’s that from?” Felix asked with a sly grin. His smug expression was comparable to how Casper looked at the moment.

Casper chuckled. “Guys! Something suddenly came up. I don’t think I can eat with you all,” he said before leaving.

“Alright. I’ll go eat with Wendy then,” Felix declared.

With that, Colton and Remy were left looking at each other, complaining about how they had friends that prioritized women.

Nevertheless, there was nothing they could do but head to the cafeteria.

As for Casper, he went straight to Giselle’s room after getting her message. There’s no way I would miss even a single second with the goddess herself!

Unfortunately, on his way there, he bumped into someone he did not want to see. The encounter instantly ruined his mood.

The person he bumped into was none other than Kitty herself.

She was among a group of girls, smiling confidently, most probably because of the Chanel bag she had with her. It was from the latest collection and was the reason for her glow.

When Kitty saw Casper, she snickered and lifted her chin.

Nonetheless, she could not help but scoff when she realized he paid her no heed. “Casper Simpson. Your donation to the school means nothing! You’re still a poor and lowly guy! I actually feel sorry for you!” Kitty’s tone was filled with disdain as the people around her chimed in, expressing hostility toward Casper.

It was as if that was the only way for Kitty to relieve the discontent she felt within, to convince herself that she made the right choice.

She needed a way to lessen the anxiety, the insecurity, as well as the slight regret she felt.

Initially, Casper was going to leave her be, for he wanted to see Giselle as soon as possible. But all of a sudden, he heard Giselle’s voice.

“Things change, miss. You shouldn’t look down on young men like him. Besides, only people with low self-esteem would speak ill and mock someone like that. So this alone speaks volumes of what kind of person you are. I believe Casper will go on to achieve great things in life, and I hope you do too.”
