"In that case, can you help me find someone who's been spreading bad rumors between me and Aslan?" asked Sam.Dave frowned, "What's the rumor?" he asked."Because a kid like you shouldn't be on social media, so you probably don't know, and it's better that you don't know, I don't want a kid like you to be contaminated with bad things." said Sam.Dave let out a long, heavy sigh, "I think you're underestimating me just because I'm a kid, you heard that Aslan said I helped him catch criminals, right?" Dave said.Sam scratched his head, not because it was itchy, but because he was looking for suitable words to say to Dave, because it seemed that Dave was offended even though Sam did not intend to offend him at all."Well, that's not what I meant... I just wanted to say that it's better if you don't play social media first, I don't distrust your abilities, sorry if my words were harsh, it can't be helped, I come from a messy family. Never mind, come here, I'll show you."Dave walked over t
"How did you suddenly get invited by the Dmond Group?" Eric whispered.Until he was inside the jewelry exhibition, a new brand owned by the Dmond Group, he still couldn't believe that Aslan had received an invitation from the Dmond Group.Aslan had gone with Eric at that time, Eric himself attended the invitation sent for his uncle, Danny Stone. It just so happened that Eric's uncle was visiting a new hotel branch in another city.Meanwhile, Sam and Ben left first with Charles.Aslan turned to Eric, then let out a long sigh, "Eric, how many times that I have to tell you, that I got the invitation just yesterday, when I got 8% of the shares of the Dmond Group."Eric was surprised again, "So that's for real? I thought you were joking about the shares and I also thought you got the invitation because you were Kendrik." Eric said.Aslan shook his head, "Kendrik has no connection with Dmond Group, so what if I have shares in Dmond Group? Is that weird?"Eric chuckled, "Wow, you're really c
"He's lying! No way I could have done that!" The woman thief still insisted that she was completely innocent. Richard turned to Aslan who was still calm, as if he could take responsibility for everything he said, unlike the woman who was very panicked. Aslan approached her and pulled out the fake necklace she was hiding, causing her to panic even more. "What's this necklace for, then?" Aslan asked. "Th-thats... it's a prop used for filming a movie." said the woman, obviously lying. "But as far as I know, the design of the necklace is a secret, this is the first time it's been shown to the public." said Ben. The woman chuckled in annoyance as she turned to Ben with a deadly glare. "Is it true that the necklace was only unveiled today, Mr. Richard?" Aslan asked. Richard nodded, "Of course, since the necklace is going to be auctioned off, it's the star of the show, so there's no way I'd share the design beforehand. So there's no way anyone would have the audacity to make such a de
"Can you stop drinking that?" asked Irene, she was fed up with Aslan not being able to stop drinking.He wasn't drinking alcohol, but warm canned black coffee, which they'd bought at a convenience store near the hotel.Irene was annoyed, because she thought Aslan was taking her out on a date, but it turned out to be just a walk around the hotel. Then they hung out at the convenience store because it was cold, then Aslan bought several cans of warm coffee, he said he couldn't be sleepy yet."I'm sorry, this coffee is so good," Aslan said, Irene didn't know whether Aslan was lying or not, because Aslan's expression was unpredictable."Because the coffee is good, or because you have a problem?" asked Irene.Aslan turned to Irene, "does it show on my face?" he asked.Irene frowned, she didn't expect it to be right, but she was just guessing."What's the problem? Don't tell me it's Debby again."Aslan shook his head, "No, it's not, there's someone I've been close to since I was a kid at th
A big city like Amrak that has a lot of workers, both local and from other countries, naturally has a lot of restaurants and cafes to make it easier for them to get food. Many of them were even open 24 hours a day.Because there were so many restaurants, and some of them were crowded, Aslan chose one that wasn't too crowded. It was a restaurant that sold various kinds of noodles. There were ramen with delicious soup, and fried noodles. It seemed interesting, so Aslan went there with Irene.But it wasn't easy, because after entering and sitting comfortably in the warm restaurant, Aslan had a hard time figuring out what noodles he should eat.Ramen with a thick, rich, warm soup would be delicious to eat in the winter."I don't think I can eat noodles, because it will only make me gain weight, and then the next day my face will be swollen," said Irene, who was also having trouble figuring out what to order."There is also a side menu here, try ordering one of them if you don't want to ea
"Is she your girlfriend?"Aslan turned to Maki and Irene who were on the sofa. Irene was sleeping after finishing a bottle of wine, she still thought of Maki as Zeno, because she was also still drunk, not fully sober.They were already in Aslan's hotel room, he had wanted to take Irene to his hotel room, but didn't after he saw Debby and Stevan enter the room.Aslan just wanted to avoid them.Meanwhile, Dave was fast asleep with Sam, in Sam's hotel room.So there was only Aslan, Maki and Irene in the room."No, we're just a bit close." Aslan replied casually, because he also didn't know how his relationship with Irene was. The word 'close' was all Aslan could say at the moment."Then can I approach her?" asked Maki.Aslan frowned, for some reason, he didn't like hearing that from Maki. There was an uncomfortable feeling in his chest, but he didn't know what it was."Whatever, but Irene is already 26 years old."Maki smiled, "the age difference doesn't matter, the important thing is th
"Hmm~ this is delicious! Premium spicy beef and cheese pizza. I didn't expect to be able to eat pizza this expensive," Maki said.Aslan hadn't asked Maki anything yet, he was just confused about where to start. Aslan was easily curious about something. He was looking for the right words to say so that Maki wouldn't think he was weird for already knowing so much about him.But, seeing Maki so happy just because of a $500 pizza, made Aslan feel very sad, even though it was also nothing compared to the most expensive pizza in the world. If Aslan remember it correctly, the most expensive pizza was also in Amrak, around 12,000$. If Aslan's father's younger brother had recognized Maki as his son, maybe Maki wouldn't be like now. Maybe Maki would turn out to be like Zacky or Mike, the typical rich kid who was spoiled a lot by his parents."You can eat as much as you want, I can order more," Aslan said."Really? If it's not too much trouble, I'd like more tomorrow, but I don't feel like burde
"What are you going to do with this building?" asked Maki, as they finished looking around the building. The previous owner of the building couldn't believe that Aslan had bought such a large building. But after he found out Aslan's full name, he shut up instantly.I don't know if Aslan should be happy about that or not, because he really didn't like being in the shadow of Kendrik's name.Aslan wanted when people heard his name, it was only what he had done, his accomplishments, that people would remember. But for now, if people hear Aslan's name, what people think of is Kendrik's big name.Aslan didn't think much of it in the past, but as time went on, it bothered him more and more. There was nothing Aslan could do but make the A.K beauty brand name more famous."Aslan? Did you hear me?" Maki waved his hand in front of Aslan's nose."Oh, the burger is delicious, really." Aslan said, which made Maki very sure that Aslan wasn't listening to him at all, because Aslan's answer was comple
