Lucia couldn't stop thinking about the possibility.But if so, what did Jasmine want?She had never seen Jasmine at this company before. She also came early in the morning, especially since the place where she appeared led to the side yard of the office where Alex was working.Lucia stayed where she was with conflicting feelings. She fully trusted Alex, but her heart kept wondering about Jasmine's coming.Maybe she could ask Alex later.Lucia tried to focus on finishing her work until lunch arrived. She then rushed downstairs to meet Alex, inviting him to have lunch with her.The elevator doors clanked open and instead of seeing Alex, Lucia saw Maria coming out of another elevator on the right side.Lucia stared at her for a moment, then looked away. She didn't like that woman.Maria had proven to be a tyrant for her own pleasure. Lucia still remembered her sharp, insulting words when Alex gave her the expensive jewelry.Maria's eyes seemed to move over the gold Lucia was wearing. Her

"ARGGHH!"Alex backed away quickly, his eyes involuntarily closing as he swung his sword. Alex wasn't hit by the mutant, but he spontaneously screamed in surprise.He still wasn't used to his creepy appearance.When he opened his eyes again, he blinked to adjust his vision. She glanced around, but the mutant had already disappeared from her sight. He scanned his surroundings quickly, but there was nothing to be seen but scrap metal.Where had the mutant gone?Alex jumped down and stared in alarm. He searched every pile or crevice in sight, but the mutant was completely gone. Alex had only closed his eyes for about 10 seconds."Oh my. Why did it disappear so quickly?" he muttered in frustration. He rubbed his face in frustration and let out a long sigh.Standing still for a moment, Alex was at a loss for where to go. He had to find the mutant. Alex intended to complete his mission tonight.What now?The thought of returning home came to mind, but it felt like that would only make Alex

As usual, Alex did his cleaning duties for the day. Time seemed to pass very quickly, until without realizing it, the working hours were over.Nothing fun happened that day, except for his short lunch with his wife. Lucia seemed busy with her work. Even so, she always made time for Alex during break time.Alex had already seen some of the work programs sent by Missi. They were starting to work with overseas clients and Lucia was always brought along by her division head for meetings. The clients preferred to have meetings outside while inspecting the ongoing construction.For now, Alex left everything to Missi to handle. He only monitored and gave instructions on more important matters.So far, Alex was happy to see Lucia thriving through her work. He wasn't at all angry if they couldn't go together, he was just happy to see Lucia so excited when working.Just as Lucia always supports and defends Alex, Alex fully supports Lucia's career. There was never any suspicion in his mind.He t

"Oh so you've been working as a cleaning service all this time?" asked Gonzes curiously."Yes, and now I'm getting used to the work I do. I'm getting really good at cleaning things," Alex replied, chuckling lightly. He stared out the window, watching the black clouds moving across the sky. "I'll probably keep that job until the system world game is over.""Hm, so that's it.""Yes."There was silence for a moment. Amidst the crowded gym filled with burly, dashing men, Alex and Gonzes chose to take a short break in a corner of the room."And you? What kind of work do you do?" Alex asked back after a minute had passed."Me?" Gonzes laughed blandly, then sighed. "Our jobs are on the same level, maybe lower in people's eyes.""What is it?""I work as a garbage picker," Gonzes said. "I think it's a job that requires one to be mentally strong, because you know what? I've had people throw plastic bags of rotten food in my face."Alex's eyes widened at that. "That bad?"Gonzes nodded with a fa

What exactly was this man doing?Alex wanted to punch him in the face. He's talking to Lucia as if it's just the two of them at the dinner table, while Bachdim, Bastian, and Tonny are all looking very supportive.Well, what did he expect? These people were in the same valley. Even though Lucia clearly said that Andrew had cheated on her, they still accepted him with open arms.They didn't care about Lucia's feelings, but Andrew's money. How sad. Lucia has too soft of a heart to continue supporting her family who are desperately in love with money."Stop talking because I'm going to throw up," Lucia said when Andrew was about to plead again. "You think you're smearing your mouth with honey, don't you? Your words are too sweet for your rotten heart. You can't keep deceiving me."Lucia's anger exploded even more and Alex gently touched the back of the girl's hand under the table. Lucia seemed to take a deep breath, understanding that Alex didn't want any more arguments."Don't deal with
