Chapter 201: Chapter 200: April

Gary Von Geldstadt was Charlotte's elder brother and was one of the top heirs in the Von Geldstadt Family. He was the one responsible for the Auction this time around.

He was also one of Victor’s close friends whom he met by chance at this very Night club. They became friends before knowing each other’s backgrounds as Gary didn’t show his identity and preferred to stay low-key. And Victor was forbidden from revealing his background.

It was later when Gary saved Victor’s life from some gangsters that they learned the truth about each other’s identities and that made their friendship stronger.

Who would have thought that Gary who was one of the top heirs of the Von Geldstadt family would die of poison one day?

Victor casually drank from his glass as he watched Gary's status, from it he could tell that he was not poisoned yet… Victor didn’t know when Gary was poisoned in his past life, but in this one, he must make sure to stop that.

In that timeline, Gary was poisoned after getting demoted in his family because he failed the fight for the true heir position to his sister Charlotte who accused him of trying to kill her and arranged for him to be kicked out of the family.
Usually kicking someone out of the family was very difficult, But Charlotte had the punishment hall elder on her side. That’s what Gary told him back then.

Victor witnessed it all, Gary’s descent from greatness to a lowly beggar. He wanted to help out but ended up with the same destiny. Unable to prevent Gary’s death even after trying so hard.

After Gary was poisoned, Victor tried to ask some experts in his family for help, but they refused to interfere with the business of the Von Geldstadt family, so he decided to ask someone else, his lovely fiance Linda. That was a big mistake.

Linda didn’t disappoint him, she secretly came with him and checked on Gary’s health then told Victor that he was suffering from a strange poison and that she needed some time to check her family archive. Little did he know that she needed time to weave a net of schemes for him to fall into.

A week later, after he begged her for an answer she ‘reluctantly’ told him that she was only doing this because he was her future husband and that he should destroy all evidence of their conversations. He wept in her filthy arms back then as he promised to destroy all evidence. He was a fool.

Getting the info he wanted, Victor thought that he knew what Gary suffered from. According to Linda, he was suffering from something called the Dragon scale syndrome. The only cure was an ultra-rare dragon flower that grew inside one of his family's islands. The forbidden island to be precise.

Victor was disturbed, but after seeing Gary's suffering he decided to risk it all, so he called one of his big brothers. Max who was conveniently in town at that time.

Max told him that he can’t enter the forbidden island, but that he can help him go in there, but he must swear an oath that no matter what, and even if he was caught he would never tell a soul that he got help from him.

Victor naively agreed and with Max’s help, he entered the island smuggled into a cargo ship and was able to steal a stem of the Dragon flower successfully then return to Tetraquad city where he gave it to Gary who got better. Temporarily at least. The cure didn’t work and Gary died a month later.
That’s when all hell broke loose. The punishment hall elders came for Victor who was still grieving for his friend. His crimes were stealing one of the family's secrets and leaking them to their enemies. Those were some big crimes.

Victor was in trouble as Gary’s remains were cremated and he had no way to prove that the grass was used as a cure for his friend. Thankfully a certain girl who was faithful to Gary until the last moments kept some of Gary’s hair as a memento and it contained a trace of the herb. Thanks to her, Victor avoided death as the elders didn’t want to investigate his other crime of infiltrating the forbidden island as it implicated too many people who took a bribe from Max to facilitate his infiltration. Opening that case would disturb the delicate balance in the family. So Victor was simply kicked out of the family in the end.

After that, Victor made sure to investigate what happened despite his problems, and to his surprise, he learned that the one behind it all was Charlotte, Gary’s sister. At that time Victor didn’t know why she hated him. But now he knows that it must be to him busting Titus’s operations back then too, he must have unknowingly jeopardized her position in the family. And she knew how to hold a grudge.

He didn’t know if all the parties in this scheme were cooperating or if the entire thing was just his bad luck. He was more inclined to believe the former though. And now he believes that The scheme was way deeper than he initially thought.

Victor slowly stood up, excusing himself and telling the women surrounding him that he had to go to an important meeting, then swiftly headed to a VIP lounge that the Leopard had prepared for him.

Inside there was a pretty soft girl in a waitress dress that featured a relatively small skirt. She was shaking in fear while trying hard not to show it. She looked about 20 years old and had long black hair that framed a beautiful face that was 31% on the Lily scale.

“You are that April? I heard many things about your beauty,” he asked arrogantly as he sat down and looked at her, taking his time.

She glared at him as she squeezed her fists. He was handsome, but she didn’t care… Maybe a little… But she will not go down easily.

“I… I will not do that… If you dare touch me I will call the police…” She yelled but knew in her heart how empty her threats were. She didn’t have a phone and knew quite well what kind of place this was as she had been working here for a while now.

“You owe a debt to Big Leopard, and I just bought you… Feel free to call whoever you want, no one can save you today.” He said as he laughed loudly just as the door of the room was busted open by a heroic young man in a white shirt.

“Let go of April.” The young man yelled just as Victor slapped his face breaking his jaw then kicking his filthy crotch out of the room.

“Do you know that guy?” Victor asked. She didn’t answer. That young man was a young master who was annoying her lately but she didn’t like him at all. She thought that Big Leopard was protecting her, but now she knew better, he was just waiting for the highest bidder.

“Now… Where were we?” Victor said as he licked his lips making her remember the situation she was in.
“Don’t come near me.” She threatened as she stepped back.

“Don’t worry, I will be gentle.” He said as he stepped forward licking his lips.

“I….” She didn’t continue as the door burst open again, this time it was the same guy but followed by a police officer.

“Officer. It’s him… He is assaulting big sister April…” The young man who is still holding his crotch told the officer who appeared to be a little drunk

April was surprised, but the next moment, she formulated a plan. This young master was not useless after all.

“Officer… He is forcing me… Please help…” She begged, making the cop look at her with burning eyes… She was hot. No one told him that such a hot girl worked here!

“I will take the room and the girl. You can….” the cop said as he licked his lips then froze, nearly biting his tongue off, when he saw Victor’s purple token.

“Please enjoy your stay here young master.” He said as he sobered up 100% and bowed before leaving the room, not forgetting to drag the young man away with angry eyes. He didn’t dare to look at the flabbergasted April again.

“No decent policemen would dare come here… Only perverts like this one.” Victor chuckled as he gestured to the Chick outside to close the door. They were ordered to act only if a fight began.

“You…” April didn’t know what to say. She had been working here for 4 months but nothing like this ever happened as Big Leopard, who was the boss here, had promised that she could repay her debt by working just as a waitress… That was until 10 minutes ago when he made fun of her and told her that he had just sold her to a new master. She was a fool to believe him.

According to Big Leopard, her new master was really great and had many connections and she better serve him well. She didn’t believe it, but after seeing the look on that cop’s face she realized that he might have been telling the truth… No, she will not go down easily.

“I heard that you are a virgin. So don't worry… The entire club would hear your beautiful voice as you become a woman… .” Victor said pervertedly, making her shiver a little as he put his hand on her shoulder and squeezed it a little.

At that moment she swung a wine bottle that she was keeping behind her at his head intending to knock him out. Too bad he grabbed her hand professionally and threw the bottle away then pushed her onto a couch and grabbed her dress intending to tear it off just as the door was kicked open for the third time.
