His earnings had skyrocketed in an instant.

First, there was the unexpected windfall—$60 million—after the elevator incident. That alone had sent his income soaring. Now, with the extra million generated from Naya, his total had climbed even higher.

Caleb’s brows knitted together as he studied the figures.

’But the passive income stream... why did it jump so drastically?’ he thought, his mind racing. The numbers weren’t adding up—or at least, not in a way he fully understood yet.

He had a vague theory.

’Could it be...?’

Curious, he reached for his phone.

As if the universe—or the system—was reading his thoughts, the moment the screen lit up, a breaking news alert flashed at the top of his feed:

{Breaking News: Famous Model Naya Lucy’s latest magazine cover for Grand Palais’s newest artifact sells at a shocking $2,000,000—instantly doubling the star’s net worth!}

Caleb exhaled sharply.

’So that’s it... the passive income isn’t just about them—it’s about how successful they become after the bond.’

And with Naya’s fame rising, so did his profits.

It wasn’t just seduction—it was an investment.

A dangerous smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.

’Interesting.’

Although Caleb could tell there had to be other conditions tied to the passive income, something wasn’t adding up.

Just a few days ago, his passive income had only been $100—a far cry from the sudden leap to a million. He was certain that the news about Naya’s magazine cover had already circulated well before then, so what changed?

’Could it be that I have to actually sleep with them each time before the passive income updates?’ Caleb speculated, his thoughts drifting back to the exact moment the notification appeared.

’That has to be it...’ he concluded, letting out a breath as he moved to close the news feed on his phone.

But just as his thumb hovered over the screen, the next headline caught his eye:

{Grand High Crest Hall Kicks Off with an Epic Launch! A venue worth billions, hosting the first-ever auction in Menadin City.}

A slow smile tugged at his lips as he read on.

The smile only grew wider when he scrolled down to the comment section below the news post:

~AuraNova: That auction was absolutely insane! You should’ve seen the items they brought in... The Quantum Battery was my favorite. And damn, that hall is incredible.

~TheMad_King: That place was massive! The architecture alone blew my mind. Never seen anything like it.

~George_G: Forget the building—did you guys see the showdown during the auction? That was the highlight.

~Jason_Joy replying to George_G: For real! The Monrrows put on a hell of a show... and that Caleb Monrrow? Dude actually went up against Eldora. That guy’s either crazy or fearless.

---

Caleb couldn’t help but let out a low chuckle as he continued scrolling through the feed.

More and more headlines flashed before him—each one featuring his name.

{Caleb Monrrow, son of the renowned multi-billionaire Jin Monrrow, revealed to hold a 70% share in High Crest Hall! A major shareholder making waves in the city’s economy.}

{Youngest Monrrow joins Borb Millionaire List—following in his father’s footsteps.}

His name was everywhere.

The wealth boards, business circles, online gossip forums—he could almost picture the flurry of calls Martin must be receiving from every direction.

In just a short time, Caleb had climbed several ranks in the social and financial spotlight. He was no longer a shadow in the Monrrow family—he was becoming a name that couldn’t be ignored.

But as he flicked his thumb further down, another headline caught his eye, freezing him in place:

{Naya Lucy and Caleb Monrrow Dating?}

His first date with Naya was right there—plastered across the article in vivid color.

A playful grin tugged at the corners of his lips.

He could already imagine Naya’s face when she saw this. The mixture of embarrassment and irritation would be priceless.

Caleb chuckled softly, shaking his head as he continued scrolling, not giving the gossip too much thought. Just as he was about to exit the feed, the page refreshed—and a new headline flashed before his eyes, wiping the amusement from his face:

{Billionaire Diego De Bonez pushes for government verdict to claim 50 hectares of prime land in Menadin City!}

Caleb’s eyes narrowed sharply. A deep frown creased his brow as he immediately tapped into the article.

> Following a formal request to create a large-scale farmland for agricultural and industrial development, billionaire Diego De Bonez has petitioned for ownership of 50 hectares of land within Menadin City.

The government is reportedly considering approval, with compensation to existing landowners and demolition of all standing structures within the zone.

Unfortunately, the newly built High Crest Hall falls within this territory.

Will the government intervene—or will the project move forward without consideration?<

Caleb’s heart sank slightly, his gaze darkening.

’That bastard...’ he thought, his jaw tightening.

This wasn’t just business.

This was calculated—a direct move aimed squarely at him.

X was no longer hiding in the shadows. They were stepping into the light, flaunting their reach and influence. Was this their way of showing him just how powerless he really was?

Caleb didn’t know for sure. All he knew was that the notification burned in his chest like acid.

’And just when everything seemed to be going well?’ he thought bitterly, feeling his blood boil beneath his skin.

The image of Diego flashed again on the screen—dressed in that pristine white suit, wearing the same smug, provocative smile Caleb had seen earlier. It wasn’t just a smile. It was a challenge. A taunt. Designed to get under his skin.

Caleb exhaled sharply, forcing himself to set the phone aside.

He had barely two days left before his time limit expired.

And he didn’t even want to imagine how much the system would penalize him for failure.

But this wasn’t just about the system anymore. No matter how many cardholders he seduced, no matter how much money he accumulated through the cards—none of it would matter if he didn’t build something real. Something that gave him a visible presence in the business world. Something that would force Jin to acknowledge him.

Wealth without reputation was hollow.

Without influence and power, winning against his siblings would be like going to war without armor—or stepping into a sword fight without a blade.

Diego wasn’t just targeting his investments. He was sending a message.

And while Caleb and the others were still scrambling for time to make a plan, X had already made their next move.

’How the hell do I even deal with this?’ Caleb muttered aloud, raking a hand through his hair. ’And this might throw Eldora off too... The car launch at High Crest Hall—he could pull out if this land issue goes public.’

He sat there for a moment, his mind spiraling through possibilities, but every thought hit a dead end.

He had underestimated them. He thought X was just a group of underground freaks after what happened with Hakate. But seeing someone like Diego—a polished billionaire and public figure—as one of them shattered that illusion.

And if Diego was involved, how many others like him were hidden in plain sight? How many powerful figures were tied to X?

He wasn’t just fighting a cult.

He was up against influence, wealth, and control that rivaled even his father’s.

’They’re trying to smoke me out,’ Caleb realized grimly. ’And I can’t even push back properly yet...’

Compared to Diego, he had nothing. No alliances. No political sway. Just the scraps of reputation he’d built so far.

’I’ll wait for Sophia and Naya to get back first,’ Caleb murmured after a long breath. ’We need to talk about X tonight... all of us.’

There was no point in stewing in frustration.

First things first—he needed to clear his head.

Standing up from the bed, he stripped off his trousers and made his way to the bathroom. The soft echo of running water filled the quiet air as he turned on the tap, letting the hot water pour steadily into the tub.

Steam began to rise, curling softly around him.

Finally, he stepped in, letting the heat soak into his tense muscles as he sank down into the water, his mind still racing even as his body relaxed.

He closed his eyes, trying to calm the storm in his mind.

But just as he began to relax, the soft click of the bathroom door opening made his eyes snap wide.

"Huh?"

To his surprise, Helene stood frozen by the doorway, her expression dazed and unfocused as her eyes landed on him.

’Why is it always her?’ Caleb thought with a wry smile.
