Via composed her face, putting on a faint smile like a typical night food seller. She offered tea in small cups to several rough-handed men sitting near the VIP stage.They were refused.Via flirted with a man whose face was covered in acne, his eyes sharp, a devil tattoo on his neck. He was not just anyone. He was a minor boss, one of Yanom’s men, often in charge of delivering goods like drugs to clubs.Via purposely dressed strikingly. A tight blood-red dress hugged her body, her lips heavily made up, and her hair was a little messy, like a nightlife woman who usually roams looking for clients. All of this was part of the plan. She bought the dress from a preloved shop with the money Max had given her.From the VIP entrance, a large man in a black suit walked closer. His gaze was wild, like a predator that had just found prey. He stopped in front of Via, looked her over from toes to neck, then smiled crookedly.“My name is Hamoz,” he said in a deep voice. “You are new here, right?”

Max walked back to the table where Aurora was sitting, his steps calm as if nothing had happened. He pulled out his chair and sat in front of his wife, then picked up his spoon again with a relaxed air.Aurora looked at her husband's face with worry. "Are you all right?" she asked softly. "I thought maybe she was trying to do something to you."Max glanced at her, then gave a thin smile. "I'm fine. That girl is just too young and needs guidance," he replied flatly as he went back to cutting the bread on his plate.Aurora frowned. "What did you do to her?""I did nothing. I just gave her some money. She needed help."Aurora fell silent for a moment, then smiled warmly. "You really are a good person."Max stared at her. For some reason, his heart trembled slightly at that praise. He was not used to warm words like that.***Days passed like a slow river until public attention turned to Max Corp in Vesula. The company grew quickly. They opened fifty job slots and everyone received the la

Max fell silent for a moment after hearing the girl's confession.He took a deep breath and said softly, "If you know that could get you in trouble with the law, never sell that poisoned tea again."Then he took out his phone. "Tell me your account number."The girl looked at him, confused. "For what?""Hurry," Max replied curtly.Hesitantly, she gave him the number. Within seconds, a notification sounded on her phone.Her eyes widened in disbelief when she saw the amount that had arrived: $3000 USD."Y-you sent it by mistake?" her voice trembled."No," Max answered calmly. "Use that money to pay rent and buy what you need.""But remember one thing, never sell poisoned tea again, or anything that could hurt other people.""Find an honest job. You are still young."Without waiting for a reply, Max turned and began to walk away, leaving the girl frozen in place.But after only a few steps, the girl ran after him."Sir, wait!" she panted. "Please let me come with you!""Let me be your st

The girl suddenly turned around and ran as fast as she could, darting through the crowded café with incredible speed. Her body moved lightly like the wind, leaving behind a faint trace of floral scent in the air.Aurora stared in shock, while Max immediately rose from his seat. In an instant, his eyes turned sharp. He stepped outside and chased after the girl. His speed was beyond that of an ordinary human—he covered 100 meters in just 2.6 seconds. Several customers who saw him only felt a strong gust of wind before his figure disappeared from sight.At the end of a narrow alley behind the café, the girl stopped, panting heavily. Sweat dripped down her temples. But before she could turn around, a large hand had already gripped her shoulder. Max stood behind her, his body straight and his eyes as cold as steel."Stop," Max said.The girl looked at him in shock and disbelief. "How did you catch up with me?" her voice trembled. "No one has ever been able to catch me before." She

While they were enjoying breakfast, a young woman with an attractive appearance approached their table. She was wearing a tight black dress that emphasized her slim figure, with a white satin ribbon tied neatly around her neck. Her face carried a polite smile, and her steps were graceful as she came closer to Aurora and Max. “Excuse me,” she said softly, her voice sweet and confident. “I’m a student. I’m trying to start a small business by making my own blend of herbal tea. These are my new products, all homemade. I hope you’d like to try them.”Aurora looked at her with bright eyes. She seemed genuinely impressed by the young woman’s enthusiasm. There was admiration in her heart—the kind that comes from someone who understands what it means to struggle from the bottom. The girl took out several small bottles of tea, neatly packaged and wrapped with golden ribbons. They looked elegant and smelled fragrant. Aurora carefully held one of them, as if it were something precious. “That

Yanom tried to bring Max down and save Aurora, just as the masked man he met in the cave had ordered him to.Aurora, the woman they knew as Hildasa, had to be saved from Max. They opposed their marriage, but none of them dared to openly destroy it, because the demonic cult knew how powerful Max was. They did not want to take the risk of attacking him directly. That would not be a good idea.***At the spa restaurant… Max walked toward the table where Aurora was sitting. Aurora had already ordered two portions of breakfast—one for herself and one for Max. She smiled softly when she saw her husband coming. “Is everything all right?” Aurora asked gently, looking at him with caring eyes. “Of course,” Max replied briefly, his voice low and deep. “You don’t have to worry.” Aurora let out a sigh of relief. “I’m glad to hear that.”But her cheeks flushed uncontrollably. Since morning, her mind kept going back to the moment in the lobby when Max called her “babe” in front of Chief Furod.
