Felix thought Mr. Zay would believe him, and the mission would be over quickly.
But before he knew it, he was suddenly slapped hard.
With his head, he turned to the side; Felix paused, trying to digest what had happened.
Just then, Mr. Zay's angry voice rang out. "Call security and drag this crazy man out, now!"
Felix turned and looked at Mr. Zay. "Sir, you must listen to me. If you don't believe me, do a DNA test. Your eldest son has been cheating all along."
"Go away!" shouted Mr. Zay angrily.
Immediately, several security guards arrived and dragged Felix away.
"Sir, you have to do it!" shouted Felix before leaving the meeting room.
Clarita, who had been silent, followed Felix's departure. Once he was out of sight, she looked at Mr. Zay and said, "Dad, what if we do it to confirm whether the man is lying or not? Whatever the outcome, we don't have any doubts anymore."
Bay, smiling happily at Felix's departure, was instantly annoyed when he heard Clarita's words. "Whether that man is lying or not, it has nothing to do with us. Leave him alone. All we have to do is handle our own business.
Mr. Zay paused and turned to look at the Executive Council. "The handover of shares and positions is postponed for now."
Without waiting for the others' reactions, he walked resolutely out of the meeting room.
Meanwhile, in the company courtyard, Felix was thrown senselessly to the ground.
Felix looked down with his hands clenched. He stayed in the same position for a moment to gather his courage.
After all, this was the courtyard of a large company. Many people were passing by. And he, who was dumped like this, felt a little embarrassed.
Having had enough, Felix cleared his throat briefly and stood up. He adjusted his backpack and turned to stare at the tall building in front of him.
The guard at the entrance gave Felix a flat look. Their friendly faces had disappeared since the report that he was the crazy man who had barged into the meeting room of the company's top brass.
Seeing that, Felix could only grimace and nod slightly before turning to leave.
"EasySync, did I fail?" asked Felix as he strolled down the street.
However, there was no response from the system.
Felix, who was only feeling a little sluggish at first, immediately became down. He stopped his steps when he reached the terminal and sat down with his head bowed. "I shouldn't have believed it right away. After all, this is something that is beyond reason. It's not easy to get something extraordinary with missions like this."
A tired sigh continued to escape Felix's mouth.
He was no longer in high spirits. It was even worse than before.
Just then, there was a sudden clanking sound. [Sir, sorry for my tardiness.]
But Felix did not care at all. His head was still bowed languidly.
[It's not over yet. You will know the result once you receive a notification. Right now, there hasn't been any notification, which means the mission is still in progress. To wait, you can go to the house that I have prepared. Please, Sir!"]
Only then did Felix look up, staring at the transparent screen that displayed him the address of the house mentioned.
There was no significant change in his expression. Instead, he sighed softly and stood up. "Alright, let's take a look. Whether that house exists or not."
Before leaving, Felix picked up his bag and looked at the contents of his wallet. He was silent for a long time, looking at the remaining bills.
After sighing again, he took out all the money and stopped a passing taxi.
**
Felix looked at the mansion in front of him with a dazed expression.
The address is correct. But was it his?
Just then, a security guard from the house next door suddenly arrived. He pulled Felix's hand roughly. "Hey, this neighborhood doesn't accept beggars. How can you be here looking at people's houses? Hurry up and leave before I call the police!"
Felix still couldn't control himself. So, he didn't fully listen to the security guard's words and chose to go back to looking at his mansion.
Seeing that, the security guard got angry and shouted while pushing Felix's body. "What are you looking at? Hurry up and leave! Let's go! The owner of this house could get jinxed if you keep standing here! Go, get out of here, quick!"
The commotion didn't attract people because the neighborhood where Felix was going to live was an elite neighborhood where all the residents were high-class. They had many activities and jobs, so they were rarely at home.
Felix came to his senses after his body hit the road. Ignoring his pain, he stood up and looked at the security guard in front of him with annoyance. "Can't you be polite?"
"Why be polite to a beggar like you?" The security guard smiled dismissively and looked Felix up and down scornfully.
Felix's face fell flat upon hearing the word beggar for the umpteenth time. He closed his eyes briefly and walked towards the wall beside the gate.
Seeing him approaching the gate, the security guard did not remain silent. He immediately chased Felix and blocked his way. "Don't you know human language? Someone like you should not approach this beautiful house. Hurry up and leave!"
"But unfortunately, this is my house," Felix said quietly.
The security guard was stunned into silence. But then he burst out laughing. "Your house? You seem to have lost your mind. Hey, look at yourself! Don't you look in the mirror? With your looks like this, how can you confidently claim this mansion?"
Felix did not respond and chose to walk past him. He placed the thumb of his right hand on the small device there. The security guard turned around and gave Felix a dismissive look. He had no intention of stopping him again. Just let him do what he wanted. Once he knew the result, he would be ashamed of himself.Ting! The sound of a successful fingerprint sounded melodious. The security guard's face instantly changed. He was stunned and looked at Felix in disbelief. "How... how is that possible?" Felix smiled slightly at his nervous question. However, he had no intention of turning around. Instead, he stepped into the large courtyard as the gate slowly opened. Even as the gate slammed shut again, the security guard stood in a daze. He felt both incredulous and embarrassed. The man he thought was a crazy beggar was the owner of this house! Felix, standing in front of his house, was silent with a circling look. He still couldn't believe what he was getting right now. "EasySync,
"Honey, who is he?" asked Pablo, looking at Felix and Arista. Upon hearing this question, Arista was a little surprised. But she soon regained her composure and looked down at Felix. "He's my ex-husband that I told you about. What a useless husband!" Instantly, a frivolous smile appeared on Pablo's handsome face. He nodded and said, "It was you. No wonder Arista left you. It's-" His words trailed off as he examined Felix's appearance. "You're such a disappointment!" Arista grew even more haughty as she watched Felix fall silent without replying. "Felix, you better get out of here. I'm never going to get back together with you. Oh yeah, I'll send the divorce papers to your ugly house right away!" The security guard who heard everything his employer said suddenly felt nervous. He swallowed and quietly stepped back. Clarita frowned and came forward in annoyance. However, before she could say anything, Felix had already spoken. "Arista, just one day, you've changed so much." Arista
The journey to Mr. Zay's house took about an hour.Once there, Felix was directed to the living room.The bandage wrapped around his forehead had been replaced with a brown plaster at a nearby pharmacy. So now Felix felt more confident and walked with peace of mind.Mr. Zay, waiting in the living room, turned his head at the sound of tapping shoes. "Sit down!"Without hesitation, Felix took his place in front of Mr. Zay. As for Clarita, she immediately went somewhere else."You turned out to be handsome too," said Mr. Zay when he saw Felix's appearance, which was much different from last afternoon.Hearing that, Felix smiled and said in a joking tone. "I'm quite self-aware that my appearance was very bad. By the way, why did you call this madman here after angrily kicking him out earlier?"The look on Mr. Zay's face instantly changed. He straightened up and stared at Felix intently. "I won't apologize to you about what happened in the meeting room earlier. However, where do you know a
"It would be better if you were upfront about your true intentions. All this happened purely because of you, and there is no need to defend yourself by blaming others or expressing dissatisfaction." At that moment, Felix spoke flatly. His voice was undetectable of emotion, united with the night wind, leaving everyone silent.At first, Bay felt stunned after hearing this. But a moment later, he chuckled, which gradually became a booming laugh. He was like someone who had lost his mind. "What do you know about it?""You, a crazy man of obscure origins, wouldn't understand what a scary life I've lived because of this supposedly powerful person!" Bay's angry voice sounded thunderous.His eyes were glaring as if he wanted to destroy Felix with just his gaze. "All of this is because of you! You're destroying everything I've neatly organized over the years!"Felix's brow furrowed slightly. There was displeasure in his gaze. "Why is it my fault? Evil plans don't last long. And you should have
Mr. Zay only smiled when he heard Felix's question. He then turned his face away and slightly twisted his body with a serious expression. "I have doubts in my heart. However, my children never brought it up, let alone ordered a DNA test. I ended up suppressing everything in my heart. However, the guilt in my heart cannot be eliminated."Felix listened carefully. He unconsciously nodded slowly, understanding Mr. Zay's position as a parent who had lost his son for several years.Mr. Zay turned his body to look at Felix. "It just so happens that you came and said what I've wanted to hear. Therefore, I had no hesitation in doing so. Felix, I am truly grateful to you."When he heard such earnest thanks, Felix could not help but be embarrassed. He turned his face away and said, "It's just a small thing, no need to thank me.""I'll be going then," Felix continued, quickly walking to the car that would take him home and getting in.Mr. Zay chuckled at his antics. He took a few steps back and
"Young master Felix-" "No, just call me Felix," Felix interrupted quickly. The older man who had just spoken immediately nodded in understanding. However, just as he was about to resume his delayed words, Felix spoke again casually. "I don't know your names yet. How do I call them? I can't stay silent while you explain. It would be awkward and unfamiliar if that happened. I want us to behave and talk casually. Think of me as your student or perhaps your child." When the two older men heard this, they looked at each other and laughed awkwardly. Then, the man on the right stood up and bowed slightly for self-introduction. "My name is Myron. Since you don't want to be called young master, call me by my name." The man next to him also stood up and did the same. "You can call me Mosha. We are the business teachers of the Pratama family since Great Lord Zay was a teenager." "Alright. You may return to your seats." Felix nodded and gave them a friendly look. The two of them could be fri
In the morning, just as the two older men had said last night, today Felix dressed neatly to start work. A light blue shirt with black cloth pants, shiny black shoes, a touch of tie, and a fancy watch on his left hand. His appearance looks clean and refreshing.He looked at his reflection in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction."EasySync, it's time to start something new. Cheer up!" After ensuring everything was perfect, Felix turned around and left the house carrying his briefcase.[Cheer up, Sir!]Felix snorted amusedly. "Why did you just show up?"However, the EasySync system no longer responded, making Felix shake his head and chuckle softly.As Felix opened the gate to wait for his ordered taxi, Arista's figure appeared. She was standing right in front of the gate, and as soon as she saw Felix come out, she immediately approached. "Felix, you've gone too far. Even if you went crazy because of my abandonment and poverty, you can't kill another person just to occupy his house!
Felix, who was still in his trance, was startled. He turned his head and nodded stiffly. "That's right.""Since it's your first day on the job, I won't make things difficult for you. Do this!" Van walked over to Felix's desk and set down a pile of documents with a bang. "I think you should be able to do a good job. After all, you are brought in directly by the Chairman.""What should I do with this?" Felix's gaze fell on the pile of documents, and he slowly stepped closer to them. He picked one up and opened it."Recap them, of course. Make sure no mistakes have been made. And when you're done, let me know so you can do something else," Van replied and returned to his place."Wait!" Felix put down his folder and raised his gaze only to see everyone looking at him with playful smiles and whispers. When he looked the other way, Manager Agatha was clutching her chest and just staring at him silently. Instantly, he realized what was happening.They were belittling and making fun of him, j
