CHAPTER 131
Bart’s eyes popped out of his sockets as he couldn’t help but keep staring at the incredibly beautiful actresses, for they were irresistible. The actresses didn’t like the look on his face and glared at him, so he looked away.These two actresses were very famous and would charge at least a million dollars or over for a movie. How could they be sitting together with the mayor? At this point, he realized how much he underestimated the mayor’s influence.The actresses clearly didn’t like Bart’s presence, so they started dressing up. After telling the mayor to send the rest of the money to their accounts, they quickly left the room.“Don’t be too shocked,” Brendon lightly punched in Bart’s gut. “Politicians have always sought celebrities during weekends to release their stress or however you see it.” He threw a towel on his father’s crotch to cover the nudity. “Now, let’s talk business, shall we? My dad will give you the money he wants, but you’re going to have to do additional work for

CHAPTER 132
Gabe ran around the whole park, carrying Mia, for almost ten minutes, and many locals saw that.While not many in the neighborhood talked about it, there were some that had taken pictures and posted it on social media. And these pictures received a lot of positive comments, though there were a few who trolled it.Mia got angry at Gabe for carrying her like that, especially when she kept telling him to put her down, but then he touched his ears and did a hundred sit-ups as an apology. After that, Mia couldn’t scold him. She was not that heartless, but she made sure to tell him to never do such a thing, or she might lose it and slap him with her sandals.Gabe promised he wouldn’t do anything that would discomfort her, but he had already promised that he wouldn’t touch her without her permission. Still, he picked her up into his arms and ran all around the park even though she kept telling him to put her down as it was quite embarrassing.To cool Mia’s temper, Gabe bought blueberries at

CHAPTER 133
Draco entered the class without even taking the teacher’s permission. “I know the answer to your question, teacher.”The teacher didn’t like his tone, but she said, “Alright. Tell me the answer now. What’s a logarithm?”“It’s a mathematical function,” Draco quickly glanced down at the book in his hands before looking at the teacher again, “that tells you how dumb you really are.”“Hahaha!” almost all the students in the class started laughing very loudly.“It did tell everyone in the class how dumb you really are!” the teacher hissed. “Get out of the class!”“W-What?” Draco looked shocked. “Was my answer wrong?”The teacher didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Logarithm is the exponent to which a base must be raised to yield a given number. It’s that simple, and yet you started talking about mathematical functions when your syllabus didn’t even cover the functions yet. So how were you able to even bring up that phrase? Did you ask someone after leaving the class? Or did you check the

CHAPTER 134
While Gabe had gone to the school to deal with the lost mobile, his lambo was still parked in the alley not far from his home.Systa didn’t allow Gabe to drive the car, either, so he had no choice but to walk to the school.A random kid came to Mia’s house and told Mia that some children were peeing on the luxury car.Bertha and others told Mia to bring the car to the house. Mia didn’t have the keys, so she went to Gabe’s house. The house wasn’t locked, even though nobody was inside. She entered and looked for keys. Luckily, she found them under the pillow.“He won’t mind if I park the car in front of his house, or will he?” she wondered.In the end, she went to the alley where the car was parked. She couldn’t tell where the children peed, but she saw that the mark that Cynthia left on the car was gone. “He got it fixed, huh. He’s managing the car decently, but high-class cars like these need to look clean, or they look striking.”She pressed a button and the door opened.“Mia Reyes…”

CHAPTER 135
Gabe ran all the way to Tuna Waves, the five-star restaurant. His shirt was soaked in sweat. He smelled so bad he didn’t want to use his shirt to wipe the sweat off his face.[You came here without taking a bus.] Systa said. [That was an 8.5 mile sprint. It helped improve your stamina and all, but how are you going to eat here and expect to pay the bill? You aren’t planning on begging me, or are you?]“Hmph,” Gabe snorted and was about to enter the building, but the guards stopped him. They were tall and healthy. Their clothes had golden lining, making them look regal and rich.Contrarily, Gabe’s pants were covered in dirt, especially at the knees.“Excuse us, but do you have money to afford a meal in this place?” one of the guards asked.“W-What makes you think I don’t have the money?” Gabe’s heart raced.“You look like you can’t afford it,” the guard was blunt. “That’s why, I think you should choose another hotel.”“Are you kidding me? This is the Dream Zone! The busiest place in th

“Aren’t words enough for you, Mister?” The guards raised their voice against Gabe. They didn’t have batons or anything on them that they could use to intimidate, so they had to rely on their voice and tall body frame.“Calm down, handsome fellas,” Gabe tried to reason with them. “Let’s play rock, paper, scissors. If I win against you both, you let me in. What do you say?”“Against both of us?” the guards looked at each other. “Even if you win against us, you don’t have the money to pay for the meal.”Gabe took his mobile out. “This is worth over 1500 dollars.”The guards checked to see if it was a real mobile or not, but after realizing that it was a genuine high-end mobile, their expressions completely changed. “S-Sir, please forgive us for doubting you.”“It’s okay. Let’s play the game,” Gabe said.“No, no, please go inside,” the guards showed him the way.Gabe happily walked in and looked proud of himself. “You are going to pay the bill, right?”[I said I would, so yes, you can eat

CHAPTER 137
Hanley, the manager, was fifty-three years old. Because he dyed his hair black, he looked younger than his actual age. Many women working in his professional and personal life tried to get closer to him because he was a successful manager who amassed a wealth of four million dollars ever since he started working in Tuna Waves about three years ago. Having said that, more than half of his amount was earned illegally.Still, Hanley managed to maintain a near-perfect image in the restaurant. He was able to enjoy the luxuries of a manager to the fullest extent possible, and so he thought everything was in his reach.With that same confidence, he had asked Nicole out on a date on the first day she joined as an intern. She looked so homely to him, and he wanted to experience her, but Nicole said no. She didn’t directly reject him but said she wouldn’t date anyone from her workplace and asked him to excuse her.He wanted to indirectly give her trouble so she’d lose her job, but to his surpri

CHAPTER 138
Hanley personally went and brought the milkshake not just because he was being a humble manager but he was also trying to impress Viola.However, Gabe pushed the milkshake glass toward Viola, startling her.“I-It’s for me?” She was so happy she clapped twice. “Thank you. You really are a good guy, aren’t you? You are dressed poorly, and you smell bad, but you have a kind heart.” She sipped on the drink without any hesitation. She wasn’t particularly short, but something about her made her appear dainty and cute. If Gabe wasn’t married, he might have felt like asking her out even though she looked to be nineteen or twenty years old at best. After all, there was some kind of positive vibe around her.Hanley didn’t like what Gabe was doing because he felt like Gabe was stealing the spotlight.Hanley put the bill book on the table.Gabe didn’t even check the bill and put the card on the card and told him the password.Hanley personally swiped the card and was surprised when the transactio

CHAPTER 139
For someone like Hanley, it would be easier to fire Viola than to pluck a hair from his own head.Viola looked baffled for a second because she couldn’t understand why Hanley would say such a thing, but when she looked into his eyes, she realized something, that the Hanely she had seen the past few days might only be the shell that Hanley had created for public image.Viola was a very sharp young woman, but even she couldn’t see through Hanley until now, probably because Hanley had a great reputation for being kind and humble.“Manager, do you realize what you’re saying?” Viola asked.“Just do what I tell you, without asking questions,” Hanley pushed the review box toward her. He was standing right next to her, so she couldn’t write positively about it even if she wanted to.However, she didn’t want to write negatively about a dish she liked so much, so she leaned forward so that Hanley wouldn’t be able to see what she was writing on the paper.(This little bitch.) Hanley squinted his

CHAPTER 140
“Why aren’t you answering?” Russell pinched Viola’s cheek as if she was just a little girl to him. “Why the hell are you working in this hotel as a waitress? When did you even come to this city?”“Grandma introduced me to some douchebag and told me to marry him,” Viola complained. “Mom sided with her, so I had to run away.”“Then why didn’t you come to me directly?” Russell still kept pulling her cheek. “Why do you have to work here as a waitress?”“You can say I was inspired by my sister-in-law,” Viola said.“By Jessica?” Russell was surprised. “What do you mean?”“I came to this restaurant to meet you,” Viola explained, her voice sounding weird and funny because he was still holding her left cheek. “But I saw Jessica serving the customers, wearing the uniform of staff. I suddenly felt like working as a waitress after that.”“Ah, so that’s what happened,” Russell now understood better. “Jessica does that once every month to understand the staff as well as the customers and to keep he
