The CEO's Unplanned Heir novel Chapter 564

He was curious to test an urban legend, to see if the Reaper truly existed.

"I'm gonna stamp him," he declared.

The crowd suddenly clamored as someone shouted, "Cops are coming!"

The guy bolted at the warning, sprinting past William. With reflexes like a cat, William grabbed the stamp and pressed it onto the fabric of the fleeing man's jacket.

The man ignored the police's shouts, dashing out of the mall, leaping over a fence, and sprinting onto the busy street.

Cars and trucks zoomed by, their engines roaring.

A delivery truck couldn't stop in time and plowed into him, sending him flying five meters before he crashed to the ground, blood flowing from every orifice. His life was over in an instant.

William stood at the mall entrance, stunned by the spectacle.

Had the Reaper truly come for him?

Skyler raised his hands, covering both of their eyes. "We're kids, so we can’t see such gory stuff."

William pushed his hands away. "I'm not scared, I'm brave. Did your stamp summon the Reaper?"

"Yeah, I’ve stamped all the bullies at school. They were all taken by the Reaper," Skyler said earnestly.

"That's insane," William blinked in amazement. "Where did you get the stamps?"

"My guardian, Superman, gave them to me. But this is our secret, okay? You can't tell anyone, not even Aurelia."

Skyler put a finger to his lips, signaling secrecy.

William nodded. "Your secret's safe with me."
