After a few days, the final product of Mr. Adrian's urban-chic series was finally released.As expected, everything exploded. The public response was overwhelmingly positive, and in no time at all, the company's stock rose rapidly, putting it at the top of the list.Everyone in the company was happy—especially the Chairman, the board of directors, and some of the teams involved.Felix at the Zay Group also felt happy seeing articles about the Vogue Group and the urban-chic series.But in his heart, he secretly thought how good it would be if one day he could achieve what Mr. Adrian did.At that moment, Bella walked behind him on her way to Bertha's desk and deliberately glanced at Felix. When she saw what was on the computer screen, she became startled and exclaimed, "Oh my! What are you doing?"Everyone was shocked. Even Ardo, beside Felix, was stunned and turned his head in displeasure. "Why are you yelling?""Look!" Bella pointed at Felix's computer screen with an expression as if
"Clarita, you look even more beautiful in this dress. Look, your legs look even better. Ah, I'm so jealous." One of Clarita's friends sitting nearby looked at her adoring and enviously. "You... you always make me insecure every time I see you.""Hahaha, what are you talking about? You're pretty, too. All women are beautiful. But of course, I'm the prettiest," Clarita said as she tucked her hair behind her ear coquettishly.All her friends laughed.Among them, there was one friend of Clarita's who sat in the middle and didn't join in the laughter. She was focused on playing with the straw in her drink."Your beauty is incomparable," said another friend.The others agreed and noted Clarita's beautiful appearance in her tight sleeveless dress and high heels in a matching color."What's the point of being beautiful if you don't have a lover? A woman's beauty is for her lover. If you're still single at this age, what's the point? Isn't that a sign that no one wants her?" Suddenly, Clarita'
"I've made a reservation at the Japanese restaurant right in front of the company. You don't mind, do you?" Mr. Adrian glanced at Felix momentarily, then returned to the front.Felix shook his head. "No."The two walked out of the building with light steps. Mr. Andrian said he wanted to enjoy the evening breeze, and since they were close by, they didn't use the car.While waiting for the pelican crossing to light up, Felix suddenly felt like a pair of eyes were watching him. He immediately looked back. His sharp eyes narrowed as he saw the shadow of long legs withdrawing near the side wall of the Vogue Group building."Felix, come on!" Just then, Mr. Adrian's voice suddenly rang out, causing Felix to draw his gaze and find the pelican crossing already lit up."What are you looking at?" Mr. Adrian glanced back briefly as the two began to cross.Felix turned his head and smiled faintly. "Nothing."But after that, he glanced back briefly before choosing to ignore her.Clarita came out fr
"Where's Felix?" Mr. Zay, who had just arrived, approached Mr. Adrian and asked.Today was Mr. Adrian's happiest day. Although Mr. Zay displeased him, he smiled broadly and replied, "He's in the back. Let me take you there!"But Mr. Zay held him back. "No. Let your secretary take me. You stay here."Mr. Adrian frowned slightly in disagreement. But after seeing his secretary nod, he agreed. "Alright. Off you go!""Come, Sir!" Secretary Ash extended his right hand to let Mr. Zay walk first.Backstage, Felix sat pensively in front of the dressing table. His gaze was fixed on the mirror, which showed his reflection looking different.The person who had been doing Felix's makeup walked over to him and said with a smile. "There's no need to be nervous. This might be your first time, but nothing to worry about. You need to walk with confidence."Looking at still silent Felix, the man smiled again and patted him on the shoulder, then walked away.Felix took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.H
"Felix, this is Mr. Erland, the Chairman of the CoreFlow Group. He's such a good businessman that his company has never faltered. In the future, if you have your own company, you should learn a lot from him." Mr. Adrian introduced the middle-aged man with a few white hairs with great enthusiasm.Felix immediately looked at him and bowed. "Hello, I'm Felix."Mr. Erland smiled and nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, I already know your name."Then Mr. Adrian pointed his hand at the man next to Mr. Erland. "While this one is Mr. Fraser, the Chairman of the Zenith Group. Felix, the three of them are great people, and I think you already know that, even if it's just the basics."Felix nodded and smiled at Mr. Fraser. "The perfumes released by the Zenith Group never fail. I wear one of them.""Oh, really?" Mr. Fraser was surprised and straightened up. "What are you wearing?""Magnetic Fusion," Felix answered honestly.Felix had no specific intention of buying the perfume released by Zenith Group.
When Felix opened his door, he heard Ardo and Benton shouting.The two men of different ages held kitchen utensils and banged them together, making a loud noise.Felix frowned, annoyed by the noise. "Stop it! What are you guys doing?"Ardo stopped banging the pots and lids. "Felix, congratulations! You're now famous! I saw the television show. You were so amazing, even during the press conference, you looked like a CEO! I'm proud of you!"But after that, he returned to banging the pot with the lid. His voice was even louder than before."Mr. Felix! Congratulations! May your career improve and everything is made easier!" Benton also joined in with what Ardo was doing. He held a vegetable spoon and hit it against the Teflon.Felix stepped in, still with a frown on his forehead. He tilted his head slightly as he reached out to stop them. "Stop it, stop it! You're making my ears hurt!"However, the two people seemed unable to hear anything. They were happy and so noisy.Felix couldn't sta
When Felix turned his gaze forward, the car was still silent. The distance between them was getting closer and closer, causing him to panic. Wide-eyed, Felix hurriedly pulled the brake.The screeching sound of tires rubbing against asphalt was loud.Because he did it quickly, the back of Felix's motorcycle lifted slightly. There was only a little more distance between the two before the accident happened.As Felix's bike slowly came back down, he breathed a sigh of relief.But just then, the steering wheel car door rudely opened, and a glamorously dressed woman got out, hurriedly inspecting the back of his car. "Oh my! My new car!"Then she angrily turned towards Felix and pointed boldly. "You crazy man! If you can't drive a motorcycle, there's no need to take it out! Look, you almost hit my new car! If that really happened, would you be able to compensate me?"Behind his helmet, Felix's handsome face, which had been feeling guilty, immediately turned cold.He took off his helmet with
When Felix came into the office today, everyone stared at him and couldn't help but smile and whisper with their friends.Felix's photos were prominently displayed on several articles and websites belonging to Vogue Group companies. Positive comments praising Felix's good looks and athletic body flooded all his photo posts. Most of those who work at the Zay Group were proud of Felix and praised him lavishly. Even those who initially did not know and did not care about Felix's existence, now when they meet him, they will greet him kindly.Being the center of so much attention at every step of the way, Felix felt a little uncomfortable. However, since in the past he was used to being the main show in people's humiliation, it helped him keep his expression steady. It didn't show that he was uncomfortable at all.Inwardly, he continued to chuckle sarcastically. These sycophantic people were disgusting!"Felix!" called Ardo, sitting comfortably in his chair.Every time he went to work, Ard
"Welcome, Mr. Felix!" But strangely, everyone there immediately bowed and exclaimed in unison. Even the person asking irritably now seemed to have a great deal of respect for Felix.Seeing them like that, Felix secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least the people here were easy to organize, making him calmer.Levi, who had been worried that they would attack Felix, slowly stepped forward with a smile and shouted sternly. "Everyone, please pay close attention to Mr. Felix, and don't miss a single word he says!""Okay!"Then Bobby stepped forward and handed Felix a folder. Before opening it, Felix looked at the dozens of men standing in front of him and then divided them into groups of five. Everything went smoothly, and they changed places obediently without causing any commotion."I've tidied up all your work. So now, let's start with the people you've taken property from," Felix said as he opened the folder and looked at group one. "You guys, go to Mrs. Ina's house! The debt she
Throughout the night, Felix spent his time finding out about the group and making plans for all the problems. It just so happened that Secretary Jorell contacted him so he could easily confirm the matter.The next day, everyone gathered in the living room with serious expressions. Felix, who was standing in front of them, began to speak. "From now on, forget about all the work you've been doing.""Sir." Levi was surprised and was about to give his opinion, but Felix immediately gave him a sharp look, so the man abandoned his intention."What you've done to them, we must fix it individually. But still, you can't show yourself in front of them. Do it quietly. Then, for the work that hasn't been done, just do it as it should be. There should be no force or violence. Do you understand?" Felix's gaze swept over everyone in front of him.However, none of them dared to speak up. Until Levi finally said, "Sir, can it be done? Maybe you don't know, but what we've done is not only limited to ta
"Sir, this is the list of members we have," Levi said as he handed a red folder to Felix, sitting with his legs crossed on the single sofa.Felix accepted it. But, having just looked at the first page, he immediately closed it and threw it on the table in front of him. "I don't know them, so I don't care about the names. Don't make me waste time, Levi! Get to the point!""Sorry, sir." Levi looked down guiltily and then turned to pick up a black folder held by one of his colleagues and handed it to Felix. "This is a list of our work so far. But here is just the gist of it. As for the explanation, that's in a different folder."Felix nodded vaguely, took it, and opened it. Instantly, his body straightened up with eyes widened in surprise. He stared intently at the writing on the first page and kept repeating it to ensure he hadn't read it wrong. Then he flipped through all the next pages quickly."What is this?" Felix's jaw hardened, and he gave Levi a sharp look as he held up his folde
Felix stood with his gaze directed forward. His face was filled with disbelief as well as frustration. "Why?""That's what I should have asked you. Why did you just show up? Where have you been that you didn't know about us?" The man who had opened the door replied to Felix's words seriously.He stood to the right, in a row with five other men. Their appearance was the same. However, the accessories worn by the other five men were fewer than the man. It proved that his position was higher than theirs.Felix shook his head in surprise.His brain, which usually worked quickly, suddenly became empty and difficult to think.The man, whose name he didn't know yet, admitted that he was the head of a group founded by the elders of the Pratama family. His members numbered in the hundreds and were scattered in several places. However, over the past year, several people left the group because they felt that they were no longer on the same path.Those people were Bobby, Mason, Wyatt, Tristan, an
Felix frowned with a look of wariness in his eyes. "Who are you?"However, instead of answering, the person on the other end of the line chuckled softly. Of course, that made Felix chuckle. He really didn't like this kind of small talk. He didn't know who this person was, but it was clear that he was an annoying person and not easy to deal with."Using someone else's cell phone is very rude. Give it back to him, and let me talk to him!" Felix commanded warningly."Oh? Unfortunately, he's not someone else to me. Sir, aren't you too ignorant? You don't even recognize your employees. I'm always waiting for you and expecting you to reach out to the stranded me, but you don't even ask how I'm doing." The man rambled dramatically, making Felix's expression turn grim.What did he mean?He always cared for his employees and never neglected them. But this obscure person was calling him bad names. This was defamation!He didn't even know who this person was, but how could he claim to be his emp
"Ah, that, he's already gone. But he really helped me earlier. It's just that his attitude was too cold, so he just left," replied Grace, who then smiled with a happy face, remembering Felix's handsome face that was so charming.Olivia just nodded slowly. However, when she looked at Grace to invite her to go home, she immediately frowned in surprise at her behavior. "What's wrong with you?""Oh? Nothing." A surprised Grace shook her head. Her hand returned to Olivia's arm and led her away. "I owe him a favor, and I hope we can meet again.""Didn't you just say thank you?" asked Olivia in surprise.Grace shook her head quickly with a restrained smile. She looked even more blushing. "I did. But I want to see him again. He's the man of my dreams. I think we might just be soul mates."Upon hearing this, Olivia, who had been staring strangely at the girl beside her, burst into laughter. She even stopped her steps. Her crisp laughter sounded annoying to Grace's ears, making the girl scowl i
Unfortunately, what was expected did not match reality. What Felix thought would be a short time turned out to be a very long time because the thief was so clever at escaping.Felix chased tirelessly, but the pickpocket also kept running through the small streets and kept turning randomly. Sometimes, he even jumped over walls and climbed trees, much to Felix's annoyance.Finally, Felix stopped his steps with his gaze fixed on the man's back. He was breathing hard, with his face contorted with annoyance. "This is the first time I've met such a strong villain.""If this keeps up, I won't be able to complete the mission," he continued with a soft sigh."EasySync, exchange my points for an incredible running speed!" he commanded then.Ting![Command received.][Processing order.][5000 points exchanged for running power successfully performed.][Master, please!]Felix smiled wryly at that. His eyes became sharp. "This time, you won't be able to get away from me, damn it."After that, he m
The chaos frightened many, especially those with debt agreements with the mysterious group.This situation was more dire than the previous days. They felt crushed. Even if they could pay off all their debts, they could not settle them easily because they did not know much about the group.The group had no specific identity, and no one knew exactly where they were. They would come as they pleased and leave without a trace, without being contacted again.If this continues, everyone could experience mental distress as they drown in their fears. The group was like a real terror that haunted everyone in debt."Fortunately, the house was empty, so there were no victims involved," said a man clutching his chest and breathing a sigh of relief when he saw that the fire that had engulfed the house had been extinguished. "I was so scared earlier."The man next to him nodded with a pale face. "I felt like I couldn't even breathe. I can't imagine what it would be like if the owner was inside. The
"Is there still no word from Felix?" asked Miles, who was now sitting at the dining table, facing Benton with a beer can in his hand. "You guys are so close, more like family. Did he really not tell you anything?""No," replies Benton, sighing softly. "If we knew, we wouldn't have hidden it. It seems like he's really angry this time.""I've never seen him angry in all this time, and even I always imagined how he would react when angry. But I didn't expect that... he's so scary like this," Benton continued, staring straight at the table in front of him with his blank stare.Perhaps if he had known that Felix's anger would be carried out by leaving without news, he would never have imagined or wanted it.It was tantamount to punishing those left behind, even worse than throwing a punch.Miles takes a deep breath and sips his beer. His gaze wandered in the other direction, and he muttered, "Where the hell is he?"Then he remembered something and hit the table with his clenched fist. His
