Manager Kim cupped his palms as she apologized in a polite and respectful tone. “Sorry for all the inconvenience, Mr. Gabriel. Sorry for not welcoming you earlier. I promise this will not happen again. Once again, I apologize, sir.”Manager Kim’s attitude sent shockwaves through the onlookers. They stared at each other with various questions in their minds.“Why is Manager Kim being respectful to him? Does he know him personally?” Brianna muttered in curiosity.“I came here to make an exclusive diamond card, but none of your tellers are willing to serve me,” Gabriel explained as he directed his gaze at the 2 tellers standing behind Manager Kim.Manager Kim turned around, and his sharp gaze met Brianna's and the other teller's. They immediately lowered their gazes in fear. With a firm tone, Manager Kim interrogated.“For what reason did you refuse to serve his request?” Manager Kim yelled.Brianna and the other teller glanced at each other. They gulped harshly as cold sweat dripped alo

Gabriel remained serious, reassuring Brianna. “I’m very serious, Brianna. Please, this bank will close in an hour, and I need to get the card today.”Brianna was about to respond, but her attention was diverted by another customer approaching her counter. She gave him a friendly smile and invited him to sit on a chair.“Please sit here, sir.”The customer expressed his wishes, and Brianna quickly served him. Gabriel stared at Brianna, who was acting indifferent to him in peeved, but he maintained his calm demeanor.Even as a teller, Brianna did not invite Gabriel to sit down. Gabriel sat on the chair while waiting for Briana to finish serving the other customer.After the other customer left, Brianna turned her gaze to the empty waiting chairs. She glanced at Gabriel with a smirk.“Okay Gabriel, my shift is over. You can go now,” Brianna ordered firmly.Gabriel frowned. He checked the watch on his wrist. “You must be kidding, Brianna. We still have 50 minutes left. Please, let me have

Ruslan continued his explanation. “At the party I held, I invited Mr. Ashton, Mr. Richard, and Alexis Blaise, and 7 other people as special guests. But when young master Ashton found out that Alexis Blaise was a special guest, he ordered to blacklist him from the list. I was more on the side of young master Ashton, so I removed Alexis Blaise.”Diana nodded in understanding. “Young master Ashton must have done this for a clear reason, I’m sure he made the right decision. I will report all of this to young master Ashton,” she responded calmly.A staff came and brought drinks and snacks for Ruslan as a form of appreciation because Ruslan was their business partner.“Please, enjoy our treat sir, I’ll excuse to tell young master Ashton about your problem.” With this Diana hurried away from there.Diana returned to her room to call Gabriel.Gabriel was sipping his drink when Lily’s eyes stared at him in admiration. Lily was amazed by Gabriel’s kindness and handsome face.Suddenly, Gabriel’s

After Vincent disappeared from their sight, Gabriel and his friends returned to their table. The food they ordered had arrived and was neatly arranged on the table. Gabriel toasted with his friends, celebrating his victory.“Cheers!”“Gabriel, tell us, what have you done that the restaurant manager wants to kick Vincent out?” asked Louis. His tone was filled with impatience.“Did you use money for all this? Considering you already spent 1000 dollars to get the restaurant manager to listen to you,” asked Joseph. He looked at Gabriel with curiosity and awe in his eyes.Gabriel chuckled while shaking his head, dismissing all suspicions from his friends. “I didn’t use money for this. I mean, I only spent 1000 dollars; besides that, I only used a trick."Joseph's frown deepened. “Do you mind telling us what trick you used?”Gabriel explained as he smiled. “I threatened him that if he dared to kick us out, then he would face my men, the fighters, and I would involve a figure from The Dragon

Having been convinced with 10,000 dollars, the manager immediately gave Gabriel the restaurant owner’s phone number. Wasting no time, Gabriel made a call. Within a few rings, the call was connected.A baritone voice was heard from the other line of the call.“Good afternoon. May I know who I am speaking to?” His words were full of formality.“I am Gabriel Bruhn. I am interested in Firehouse Steak, and I would like to buy it,” Gabriel stated directly without hesitation.The owner of the restaurant was taken aback as he straightened his back, which was originally leaning on the chair. He furrowed his brows as he replied. “What? Are you kidding me?”“No, I am not kidding. I am very serious. I want to own this restaurant. Please tell me how much I should pay,” Gabriel requested.The restaurant owner was pensive for a moment. Firehouse Steak had been established for a year and had entered the list of the 20 best restaurants in the city. But lately, he had plans to move to another country w

Hearing Vincent's order, the waitress's tears streamed down her cheeks as she knelt before him. With a hoarse voice, she begged with all humility."Mr. Vincent, please forgive me. I admit my mistake, and I will take responsibility for it. But please don't get me fired. I really need this job." Her hand was about to touch Vincent's leg, but he haughtily swung his leg to kick her.Gabriel's rage escalated seeing Vincent's rude and arrogant attitude. He immediately approached the waitress and asked her to stand on her feet. "Please, don't do this. I will help you, trust me," he said in a convincing tone.She wiped her tears with resignation. There was nothing she could do now but stay silent. Even if her tears turned to blood, it would not make Vincent change his mind.Vincent, with peeved in his face, turned at the restaurant manager. "I'm sick of seeing all this! Hurry up and kick them out, or I will sue this restaurant!" He shouted while pointing his finger, threatening.The restauran

Leon and Jane come to Havelock to meet Elena's parents. When they got there, they saw, from a distance, Elena's parents, who were busy moving their belongings into a car.“Leon, are they Elena's parents?” Jane asked."Yes, they are Elena's parents."Jane frowned at them. It seemed like they wanted to move, considering the large suitcases they were moving into the car.“Jane, this way!” Leon grabbed Jane's hand and asked her to go through the back lane of the house because they didn't want Elena's parents to see them coming.“Hurry Renee! The sooner we leave, the happier we will be," said Joe, looking intently at his wife, who was moving a box into the car.Renee took a deep breath as she wiped the sweat from her forehead. “I'm so tired, Joe. Are you sure to leave here?” She looked at her house with teary eyes. “This house holds a lot of memories.”“If we don't leave soon, then we'll still be dealing with Leon. I want to live in peace, especially since we already have a lot of money an

Dean was at his parents' house. Because his parents decided to live in the United States, the house was his. He was at the dining table, enjoying his breakfast.While he was spreading peanut butter on his bread, a maid suddenly came to him."Good morning, master," said the maid with a little bow. "What's the matter?" Dean responded."Mr. Rexa has just arrived, sir."Dean gasped. What's more, his father just moved to the United States a few days ago. Why did he suddenly fly to New Zealand?“He is here?”"Yes sir. He—" Before the maid had finished her words, Rexa's arrival diverted their gaze.“Father.” Dean immediately got up from his seat.“No need to be surprised. I flew here suddenly because I had business to finish," said Rexa as he poured juice into his glass and then drank it.“I've handled everything, Father. So I don't think you need to come here suddenly like this," replied Dean, crossing his arms over his stomach.Rexa was silent and did not reply to his son's words.“Then w

“Belinda, what happened?” William approached Belinda, and Dean moved away from her.William stared sharply at Dean, as if suspicious of him.“There's a group of men with guns, sir. We don't know who they are, but suddenly they came into this room and shot Mrs. Belinda," explained one of Belinda's assistants. William's gaze turned towards her.“That's right, sir,” another assistant chimed in.William was silent for a moment. Seeing that no one else had been shot made him believe that the group of men wanted to attack his family.“Quickly take Belinda to the hospital! She must get medical help before it's too late," William ordered his subordinates. They immediately took Belinda away from there.The police came out of the room to immediately find out the whereabouts of the group of men. Everyone left the room, except William and Dean.Dean stepped forward, and when he reached the doorway, William spoke to him."Aren't you the son of Rexa Romano? What are you doing here?" William asked D

The sound of the cell phone ringing distracted Leon's gaze. The man immediately took his cell phone from his pocket and accepted the call. He got a call from his subordinate.“Good afternoon, young master. There is something we want to tell you.”"What is that?" Leon's eyebrows knitted together, showing that he was curious about what his subordinate wanted to tell him.“We just arrived at the house that Mrs. Elena's parents rented, but they are no longer here. The home owner said they just left a few days ago.”The man's words surprised Leon. "What?" Leon got up from his seat and dropped the newspaper he was holding.“That's right, sir. Didn't they tell you they were leaving?”“No, they didn't say anything. Quickly find out why they suddenly left there. I'm sure they must be hiding something.”"Yes sir."Call ended.Leon immediately checked Elena's parents' number and tried to contact them. The number could be contacted, but Elena's parents did not receive the call.***Dean was sitti

“Who is her father? Have I ever met him?” Dean's brows furrowed even more when he heard his uncle's words."He was at the same event with you; you just didn't realize it," Finley replied.Dean took a deep breath. He was about to leave there, but Finley held him back.“Wait, Dean! Don't go!"“What, Uncle? I don't want to know anyone now. I just want to focus on my company," said Dean in an annoyed tone.“But this is a great opportunity. If you can marry her, our family's power will increase.” Finley kept trying to convince Dean, hoping his nephew would change his mind.Dean shook his head. “No, Uncle. I'm not interested in that.” He immediately left there without paying attention to Finley.“This is absolutely ridiculous! He tried to match me with many girls, but he himself chose not to marry. Sometimes I wonder about my own family," Dean continued to mutter as he got into his car."Dean, wait!" Finley shouted as he ran towards Dean.Dean rolled his eyes as he took a deep breath when h

"So you will stay here?" Rexa looked at Dean with a cold gaze.Dean nodded. “Yes, Father. I will still be here. I also prefer to be in New Zealand instead of another country."Rexa's gaze turned to Juliet. "Even if Dean doesn't go along with us, we will still move there," he said in a tone that didn't want to be rejected."Okay, I'll go with you." Juliet agreed to her husband's decision.Rexa took his cell phone and asked his assistant to arrange his move to the United States. Because Dean didn't move there, Rexa handed over all responsibility to his son. What's more, Dean was the heir of the Romano family. Rexa and Juliet will move to the United States next week.***Today Leon was allowed to go home. But up to this moment, Elena still hasn't woken up from her coma. Leon came to Elena's room to see his wife. The woman was lying with her face looking beautiful."It's been almost 2 weeks since Mrs. Elena has been in a coma, young master," said Michael, who was standing next to Leon.Le

Arnold was taken aback seeing his grandmother’s presence. The old woman arrived there with Charles and her secret guards.“Grandma, I have asked you to wait at home. It’s too dangerous,” Arnold exclaimed worriedly.Elizabeth ignored her grandson. Her gaze was focused on William. “William, answer me! What did you do to her? Let her go!” she demanded.William smirked. “Elizabeth, nice to see you, cousin.”Arnold’s jaw dropped. “Cousin? What?”“I don’t understand why you did this to us. You suddenly left the Winster family and disappeared for more than 2 decades. But now you reappear in our lives and kidnap my grandson's girlfriend,” Elizabeth asked in surprise.A mix of anger and revenge in William’s eyes. “I just want to see your grandson suffer. By watching his girlfriend die, it’s the same as killing him slowly.”Elizabeth’s eyes were filled with tears of anger. “William, without you doing that, my grandson has suffered for almost his entire life. All this time he was missing and eve

Arnold stopped his car in front of a building. He was sure he had arrived at the address that appeared during the search process earlier."Be ready boys!" said Arnold looking at Alastair and Carlos.The two men nodded with bulletproof vests and pistols ready to protect them.Not only them, but Charles was also in the car. Arnold told Charles to stay in the car to keep watch.Arnold, Alastair, and Carlos alighted from the car and rushed into the building area by climbing the fence.As the first bodyguard of the Winster family, Carlos showed his abilities by leading this journey. He jumped the fence first and managed to enter the building area.The second person to climb the fence was Alastair. The two bodyguards had to ensure safety first before letting their master enter the area.After Alastair successfully landed, they observed the surroundings before letting Arnold climb the fence."You can go up now, young master. We will help you," said Carlos.Wasting no time, Arnold immediately

The first search process carried out by Charles was by using the kidnapper's car license number. He accessed a secret website, where the website could display information from the location of a vehicle just by typing the car license number.To be able to access the website, someone must have a special license that will not be given to just anyone. Charles, who was experienced as an assistant to rich people, has access to the website.Arnold sat next to Charles to see the search results. Charles typed the car license number, and in seconds information appeared on his laptop screen."Oh God, this person is someone with great power, so location information based on the car plate of his vehicle cannot be accessed. This also applies to the Winster family, sir," said Charles."Then, can you use another method to track their whereabouts?" Arnold asked hopefully."I'll try with Angela's phone number."Because Angela's number is inactive, the search process will take longer because to see the

Seven days later.“See you tomorrow!” Angela waved her hand to her coworkers as they left their workplace.She exited the office building and walked toward the edge of the highway. As she looked around, she received a call from Arnold.A bright smile was etched on her face. She eagerly accepted the call.“Hi, my dear. Where are you now?” Arnold asked a second after the call connected.“I just got out of the building. After this I will order a taxi to take me home,” Angela replied.With concern, Arnold offered. “How about I pick you up and take you home?”She shook her head, although Arnold could not see her gesture directly. “Thank you, babe, but I can go home by myself.”“But—”“Don’t worry, babe. I’ll be fine, trust me,” Angela assured.“If you say so, then I trust you, honey.”“Good.”“My dear, I want to invite you to have dinner with my grandmother. She is in New York right now,” Arnold invited.Angela couldn’t contain her excitement. She felt like jumping up and down with joy. Sh

Rachel’s jaw dropped. She still couldn’t believe what she saw. She looked at her phone screen to make sure the number was calling her.“It’s my mysterious investor’s number. But why?” Rachel exclaimed while rubbing her head in frustration.Arnold smirked. He brought his phone to his mouth. “Why are you so surprised, Ms. Rachel Aderwin? What do you expect from this mysterious figure?”“No way!” Rachel ended the call that very second.She stared at Arnold with a sharp gaze. “Don’t try to fool me, Arnold! This can’t be real! You must be using a trick and trying to pretend to be my investor,” she accused.Arnold chuckled. “Why would I do that? Why would I trick you?”Rachel took a deep breath. She still couldn’t process what was happening here.Arnold’s gaze shifted to his phone, and he seemed to be typing a message.“Just wait and see, Miss Aderwin. You will see the truth,” Arnold said as he smiled slyly.“What are you going to do?” Rachel exclaimed as her eyes darkened.An incoming call

Rachel tried to contact customer service from another bank, but they said the same thing. A powerful figure had blocked her bank accounts.She, who had originally planned to explore new places, ended up returning to her hotel room. Rachel couldn't hold back her sadness. Tears streamed down her cheeks.The hotel room she booked was only valid until tomorrow afternoon, so if she couldn't pay for the hotel, she would be homeless tomorrow.Resigned to her situation, Rachel decided to stream on BeYou. It only took a few minutes for viewers to flock to her stream.In front of her cellphone screen, Rachel just cried and didn't say anything. This made the viewers puzzled.@tylaaa: What happened to our Rachel? Why is she crying?@Giiii: Maybe something bad happened there. Oh, poor girl.@huns77: Tell us what happened to you.The viewers started showering her with gifts. They hoped that those gifts would make her mood become lighter.Rachel wiped her tears and started talking. "Thank you so muc
