“Sign the papers, Yemin. You’re nothing but a lapdog living in my house,” Katherine sneered, flipping her perfect hair. “You should be thanking me for keeping you around this long. Even my maid is more useful than you.”
Her new lover, James Franx, smirked. “Man, I almost feel bad for you. Almost. Must suck knowing your only talent is folding laundry and giving foot massages.”
The whole room burst into laughter.
Yemin just stood there, silent.
They called him a loser. A househusband. A pathetic joke.
But what they didn’t know?
The man they mocked owned the very restaurant they were dining in. The billion-dollar contracts they bragged about? His name was on every single one.
And when the truth dropped, their smiles vanished.
"Throw them out," the CEO of Ravol Company ordered, his voice cold.
Katherine's jaw dropped. "W-What? No, this has to be a mistake!"
James turned pale. "Wait! You don't understand! He’s just a nobody!"
Yemin chuckled, finally looking them in the eyes.
"You’re right, James. I was a nobody. But tell me… what does that make the fool who was just begging at my feet?"
