He had just finished calling the ambulance to come to the house which was why he hadn’t said anything about the inappropriate situation until then.Alexander looked down and saw how his hand was basically touching Janice’s cleavage and he jolted.“Sorry about that. I was just helping her with her heart attack” Alexander replied and Kevin’s eyes widened. “Really?” He asked and Alexander nodded.“You can check for yourself,” Alexander said and the husband rushed to Janice’s side to check.He pressed his ear against her chest and heard her heart beating normally. He sighed in relief and then pulled his head away.“I thought I lost you,” Kevin said to Janice with a warm smile then he looked at Alexander.“Thank you very much. I don’t know how I can ever repay you for what you’ve done” Kevin said, almost teary-eyed. “It’s no big deal” Alexander smiled. “Anyway, here you go”Alexander gave Janice’s unconscious body to Kevin and he held her with care.Alexander stood up and Chef Ronaldo w
Alexander closed the curtains and returned to Chef Ronaldo and Kevin.“So, what are we going to do about her?” Alexander asked.The two other men looked at Janice’s unconscious body then they looked at each other and finally they looked at Alexander.“I’ve already called the ambulance to come take her to the hospital but I’m guessing you're talking about what we should do about the blackmail,” Kevin said.“That’s right” Alexander replied “You guys offered her a way out of this, but she didn’t believe you and things escalated to a terrible situation that would have been exponentially worse if the gun didn’t have defective bullets,” Alexander said, making the two to think about what they wanted to do.After all, among the three of them, only he didn’t have any sort of personal relationship with the woman. Everything for him started with wanting to get cooking skills from Chef Ronaldo who he then got coerced into helping because of the mission from the gods of vengeance and possession—
“Is that everything you wanted to talk about, because if it is, I’ll be taking my leave now” Alexander said and the chef shook his head. “No. I was going to tell you that you should not worry about your money. Once Janice wakes up, I’ll find a way to have her send it back to you with a note apologizing for what she did” Chef Ronaldo said. Whenever someone sends money, there’s a part for the description and Chef Ronaldo meant that he would make Janice use the description box to write her apology. Although there’s a limited number of characters she could write, it wouldn’t take much to get the message across. Alexander became quiet for a moment. Just then, the system’s voice popped into his head. {“What do you want to do Mister Alexander? You’ve already regained possession of the money Mister Ronaldo Drayman sent to Missus Genevieve Sanders and with a word, you could return it to your bank account”} ‘Yeah, I know that but look at his face. He really does want to do this’ Alexan
Alexander returned to the house and freshened up. He went to the kitchen and made himself a bowl of cereal as there was nothing else he could eat without having to cook first then he rested on the counter and looked at the cooking utensils“Too bad I wasn’t able to get the cooking skill from Chef Ronaldo today, but tomorrow’s a new day,” he said then took his first bite of his cereal.Spoon after spoon, Alexander munched on the cereal then it got to the bottom with just three more spoonfuls left before the whole thing was finished.Alexander took a spoonful, put it in his mouth, chewed a little and then he stopped.He looked at the bowl of cereal, grimaced, chewed some more, and stopped again.He looked at his stomach and groaned.“Why doesn’t it feel like I’m being full while eating this?” Alexander asked himself. Just then, his stomach let out a loud growl and he felt a sharp pain like he hadn’t eaten for a whole day which was strange because he had eaten not so long ago. He had
Alexander grimaced in disbelief then he thought about it for a moment.“I guess you’re right about that. After all, just like everything else I’ve transferred to other people, you are also just a possession of mine so it should be possible”{“Exactly”}He knew that the system wouldn’t lie— not sure if it could yet— but wrapping his head about transferring it to someone else when he thought he was stuck with it for the rest of his life made him unsettled.“How long have I been able to transfer you?” Alexander asked, his question having a second meaning which was querying the system why it hadn’t informed him of such an ability until just then. Could the reason be like what happened with the Ultimate Sacrifice Feature where he didn’t know important details about it because he didn’t do the research and the system didn’t tell him until he needed it or was this ability to transfer the system something recently obtained?Alexander contemplated a little and then said “Show me how I can do
Through the monitor, Alexander saw Mrs. Terrence ring the bell again. Since the woman had shown him how to operate the monitor to not just control the smart system that runs everything in the house, but also how to turn on the speaker at the gate, Alexander pressed the button and activated the speaker.Once activated, the person by the speaker would hear a sound that’d let them know that it had been turned on so as not to be startled when they suddenly hear a voice come out of the thing. “Good evening, Missus Terrence” Alexander greeted. “Good evening Alexander. How are you this evening?” she greeted back.“I’m fine. And you?” He said.“I’m fine too” she replied.“That’s great to hear. Anyway, is there any problem? Not that I have any issues with getting a visit from you this late in the night, but it’s just not something I was expecting ” Alexander said and the older woman chuckled. “Sorry for disturbing you this late in the night. I and my daughter were just returning from an ou
“Tenant?” Alexander asked. “That’s right. My wife and I own this entire estate and while she uses her time to represent us as the agent, my job is to further expand—“ Mr. Terrence said but his wife cut him off by tapping his chest lovingly.“No talking business while we haven’t even gotten the chance to go in yet” Mrs. Terrence reprimanded and her husband chuckled. “My apologies, Alexander. It’s a bad habit of mine but thanks to my beautiful wife, it’s now under control” Mr. Terrence said. “It’s fine. I wasn’t bothered by it one bit” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence grinned. “I like you and I think that the two of us are going to have a great rapport. Anyway, let’s end the talks here and go inside where it’s more comfortable. Dinner should also be getting ready any moment” Mr. Terrence said and then he started leading everyone inside. Just as the man of the house and his wife turned to face the door, Alexander looked at their daughter, who was a couple of months younger than him a
Alexander, who walked over to the adjacent couch, shrugged. “I’m not really a sports fan. As a matter of fact, I don’t really watch television so you can put whatever you want to watch, sir” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence grimaced. “What do you mean you don’t watch television? What do you do for fun then if you don’t watch television like other kids your age?” He asked and Alexander shrugged.“I mostly read or be by myself and think about things,” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence, who was shocked to hear his answer, sat down and groaned.“That’s strange,” he said, and Alexander, who also sat down, grimaced. “What is, sir?” Alexander asked. “Your answer. It’s completely different from what I’d expect from a young man your age. You’re nothing like any of my daughter’s friends and honestly, I kind of like that” Mr. Terrence said and Alexander smiled. “Thank you, sir. That means a lot coming from you” Alexander said then he groaned and turned his head to the left a bit.He also in
