In his hotel room, Felix was dragging his suitcase by the door. Just then, the cell phone he hadn't used for two days suddenly rang. He stopped in his tracks and picked it up. Seeing Ardo's name on it, his thick eyebrows furrowed slightly.But even so, he accepted it. "What's wrong?"When he heard Felix's voice, Ardo's eyes widened. Immediately, he spoke excitedly. "Felix! You finally accepted it too! Something's going on here!"Felix's face instantly changed. "What's wrong?""Your ex-wife is acting up again! She keeps yelling your name and now, her husband is out! They're fighting in front of the gate!" Ardo's voice kept rising in panic. He occasionally looked at his laptop and peeked at the main door.Benton who was watching the CCTV footage unconsciously nodded.The slight anxiety that had been on Felix's face now disappeared without a trace. His handsome face became flat with a cold stare.Feeling no response from Felix, Ardo spoke again. "Yesterday, we were reprimanded by the sec
On the way to his house, Felix closed his eyes and gently massaged his temples. There was a hint of fatigue on his handsome face. When his eyes opened, his jet-black irises looked very deep with all their secrecy hidden.His memory revolved around the incident some time ago.*Flashback on*"Daddy, can I have a private word with Felix?" asked Veronica as she glanced at Felix with a sweet smile that she tried to hold back.Mr. Graysen was surprised but afterward, he smiled widely and nodded.The thing he had been waiting for was now realized. And it was only a matter of a few more steps for something good to happen."That's fine, of course it's fine. You can talk in the side garden," Mr. Graysen replied excitedly.Veronica couldn't help but smile. She quickly stood up and walked towards Felix. "Let's go!"Mr. Zay watched them with a faint frown on his forehead. Jorell who saw that quietly cleared his throat.Felix did not stand up immediately. He watched Mr. Graysen who looked very happ
Arista also heard the sound and she turned her head with a stiff movement. Her eyes widened as she saw a car driving towards her. "Aaaaaaa!" Arista shouted, crossing her arms in front of her face.As the distance grew closer, Felix nimbly jumped to the side. The car driver wearing a black mask and hat hadn't anticipated his movement at all, so he crashed into the gate and Felix's left-behind suitcase so hard that it made a loud noise.Because of this, Ardo and Benton who were inside the house gasped in shock. So did Pablo, who immediately ran outside after hearing Arista's scream.Arista was breathing hard. She slowly lowered her hands. Her face looked pale and her gaze became blank.She turned her head toward the car beside her and couldn't hold herself back anymore. Her body immediately fell and she sat on her knees with her heart beating fast.Almost!Off to the side, Felix stared at the shadow of the man in the car. With a cold face, he stepped towards the car. But unfortunately,
Taking advantage of Felix's confusion, the man who had no idea what his name was used both hands to push Felix to the ground and then got up, got back into his car, and drove off at high speed.Felix quickly came to his senses and stood up, staring at the departing black car but having no intention of chasing it again.On his handsome face, there was confusion and questions that made him think hard.He didn't know him, didn't know his name, and this was even their meeting.Yet, why did he want to run over right in front of his own house?It made no sense if it was just a mistake. After crashing into his gate, the man not only didn't apologize but ran away and continued to prevent him from overtaking him.Felix suddenly felt that something was wrong. "EasySync, give me a copy of the CCTV footage in front of the gate. Right when that car was about to hit me!"[Yes, Sir.][Order received.][Command being executed.]While waiting for the notification from the system, Felix walked to his c
Instead, Felix remained calm and looked at Pablo and asked, "What are you talking about?""No need to beat around the bush! You're just playing dumb. I know! Felix, this time, it will all be over!" Pablo snapped furiously. "After all your bad deeds, you have to accept the karma!""Karma? Pablo, you keep saying I've done bad things. What have I done?" Felix's gaze became sly, with a sharp grin on his thin lips.Pablo was dumbfounded. He stared at Felix in disbelief. "What did you call me? Pablo?"Felix's brow furrowed slightly. But after a moment, it returned to normal, and he smiled innocently. "Yes, is it wrong?""Of course it's wrong!" shouted Pablo in front of Felix's face, causing him to jerk his head back with a disgusted grimace. However, Pablo paid no attention to that and continued to shout angrily. "Don't call me by my name! I'm a CEO, and you must include the word Mr. in front of it! Your level is far below mine, so you have no right to call me that!""So, you're just taking
"Beloved?" Felix asked, confused. "What lover are you talking about?"Ardo widened his eyes and looked at Felix seriously. "Your lover, of course. Why are you still asking? Didn't I say that? Your girlfriend sought you out and took you to dinner with her father."Then he shook his head slowly in disbelief. "Felix, you really...."Ardo stopped what he was saying and took Felix's arm with an expression as if he was giving his brother advice. "We are family. I think of you as my brother. It's okay to know things like this about each other. Besides, there's no way you can hide it forever, right? I think she's pretty and cute, too, you don't have to be ashamed to tell people."As he said the last sentence, Ardo lowered his hand and gazed in another direction as if imagining Sarina's beautiful face.Felix rolled his eyes lazily and rubbed Ardo's face roughly. "If you really feel that way, you can date her."Ardo turned around quickly with wide eyes. "Hey!"Felix rubbed Ardo's face again, ma
Felix had guessed that Mr. Barnes would ask this question, so he remained calm and smiled as he gently pushed the paper bag forward. "I just returned from a business trip with Mr. Zay. To meet you, of course, I couldn't bring anything with me.""So-" Mr. Barnes still did not change his expression. His eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Felix questioningly. "Did you decline my offer or not?"Felix lowered his gaze for a moment and looked back at Mr. Barnes. "What I bring today has nothing to do with my answer later."Mr. Barnes leaned forward even more, resting his hands on his thighs and asking urgently. "Tell me the answer now!""Don't you want to see what I brought?" Felix glanced at the paper bag in front of him and asked deliberately.Of course, it made Mr. Barnes feel annoyed. He tapped his thigh and hissed, "Felix, I know you're not one to beat around the bush! I won't see what you've brought until you answer. So, hurry up and talk!"Suddenly, Felix chuckled softly and looked do
David's eyes went wide, and his body froze when he heard the scream from behind him.With a stiff movement, he turned around and found his wife standing with her hands on her waist, looking very angry. "My wife.""Where's Felix? Show him to me, and I'll scold him loudly! After two months of being gone, what else did he come here for, huh? Is it to take advantage of you and demand a lot of money? I hate people like this the most. Disgusting! Quickly tell me, where is Felix?" David's wife walked forward until she bumped into David's shoulder and looked around wildly.David's face immediately turned pale, and he pulled his wife into the house while whispering, "Hey, calm down. You can't be this angry. Let's go back first!"However, instead of obeying, David's wife became even angrier. She jerked David's hand and yelled, "You can't hide this from me! People like Felix deserve to be scolded! You've always had a soft heart. No wonder Felix wants to use you now! Look, you even offered him co
"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
