Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 12. The Manager's Nephew
The man next to Greyson spoke carefully in a lowered voice, explaining briefly about Malcolm."Isn't this disgusting? Hasn't anyone tried to report this Malcolm?" Greyson commented then picked up the glass and drained the contents. His voice was rather loud when he said that.The man became frightened. He glanced at Malcolm briefly then said again, "Keep your voice down. He can hear.""Report to where? Didn't it say that the HR manager is his uncle?" This time it was the other man who spoke. He said it in a half-whispered voice."Then, report it to the HR director." Greyson came up with another solution. "Report hid uncle and nephew as well."Suddenly, the cafeteria became even quieter. Before, there were still whispers and the sound of clashing cutlery. No one dared to comment on Malcolm openly. This time it became completely quiet after Greyson said that.The four men and one woman sitting at the table with Greyson immediately
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 13. Human Resources Manager
"I want to report," Greyson said his purpose as soon as he arrived at the HR office.The HR manager was a bespectacled man with a fat body and bald head named Magnus Jensen. He gave Greyson a glance and then refocused on his phone screen. He didn't look happy.Malcolm sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, thinking of the manager's office as his own. He stared dismissively at Greyson who stood in front of the manager's desk, filing his complaint."What problem?" Magnus tapped his phone screen with a serious face."The assistant planning manager, Malcolm Langston, assaulted a cleaner in the company cafeteria. There were many witnesses. I don't think the cleaner did anything wrong....""Shit!" Magnus exclaimed, cutting off Greyson's sentence, and almost slammed his cell phone down. He had an annoyed look on his face. A moment later he threw his phone on the table.Greyson frowned. He glimpsed a game app on the screen.Magn
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 14. The Troublemaker
There was a knock on the door. Before Magnus could open his mouth, the door was pushed open. Daniel Evans entered with a pale face."CEO Hayes, I heard there was a commotion in the cafeteria. People said you were here. So, I caught up with you. Is there a problem?" Daniel looked nervous. He had had a bad feeling when the CEO said he would have lunch in the cafeteria. And now, here was the CEO. He hoped the HR manager hadn't said anything nonsensical.Magnus's fat face, which had been flushed, immediately lost blood."CEO Hayes?" It was like a boulder was stuck in the manager's throat. He looked at the simple-looking man across the table. There was nothing to suggest that he was the most important person in the company.Malcolm, on the couch, nearly dropped his jaw."CEO Hayes?" His whole body instantly shivered. The document inspection section? It seemed like he wasn't lying. As CEO he checked everything in the company.
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 15. Matt Vega
"Are you sure that Matt lives here?" a young woman asked the man next to her in the driver's seat."Of course. I got the information from a gossip reporter. Matt just got back from filming overseas today. He will definitely go straight home to rest. Evelyn, I'm confident in this information. Let's wait a little longer." The young man, who turned out to be Oliver Brooks, continued to watch the front of the luxury apartment building.Evelyn was a big fan of Matt Vega, a renowned actor who had won several awards. She watched all of his movies and collected almost all of his merchandise."Isn't this the most luxurious apartment in the city? I didn't know Matt bought it. Doesn't he have his mansion in Lakeview?" Evelyn couldn't hide her admiration for her idol."There will be a lot of reporters waiting for him there. So he bought an apartment here as a backup." Oliver turned to his lover's beautiful face. "Don't overdo it. You're making me feel jealous
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 16. Do You Know Each Other?
Three people stood near the bottom of the stairs. Two of them were laughing loudly. One of them seemed to be furrowing his brow slightly, thinking that the world these days seemed to be getting stranger and stranger. Honesty has been understood as a sham. "Well, if you have nothing more to say, I'll be going." Greyson didn't care about the opinions of the two people. He was about to continue on his way. Suddenly, another taxi pulled up to the curb in front of the building. A man with a body wrapped in a dark coat with a hat and mask rushed out of the car. Behind him followed another man. The two of them walked almost past the three people before the man with the hat and mask suddenly stopped his steps. He took off his mask and said, "Greyson, what are you doing here?" Greyson automatically looked at the man. "Matt?" "Matt Vega?!" Oliver and Evelyn exclaimed simultaneously. Evelyn was the more enthusiastic one. "I-It's amazing!" She held Oliver's arm beside her and immediate
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 17. God of Help
"What do you mean?" Matt stared at the man who spoke in a disdainful tone."Him, Greyson. Are you guys old friends? You must not know that he now owns a small laundry shop. Well, it's a lot better than being unemployed." Oliver told with a laugh, amused himself.Matt wanted to argue but then thought that Oliver was out of his mind. How could a son of the Hayes family work in a laundry shop?Remembering Greyson who walked into the lobby of the building, Matt hurriedly called out. "Greyson, wait!" He half ran after.Oliver and Evelyn, who were left behind, were dissatisfied."What's with Matt? He's looking at Greyson like he's looking at the God of fortune." Evelyn muttered in annoyance. She hadn't even asked Matt for an autograph yet. Instead, the actor ran into Greyson. What a jinxed man."Matt was probably fooled by that fool's appearance and didn't believe a word I said. Maybe he's currently trying to confirm." Oliver had his own thoughts. ***While near the elevator, Matt was fina
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 18. A Gossip
Although he didn't regularly follow entertainment news, Greyson had heard some gossip about Matt. A source mentioned about his alleged deviant sexual orientation. Letting him stay here would only reinforce those allegations.Manager Paul immediately shook his head, signaling Greyson not to fulfill Matt's shameless request."I think you've said enough, Matt. It's time to go back to your apartment." Greyson blatantly shooed Matt away. Then he remembered. "And you, who are you?"He had seen the man who was with Matt since the lobby. But since his mind wasn't focused, he didn't mind that he followed them to his apartment. Now, remembering the gossip about Matt, Greyson had a bad thought.The man named Paul in question was immediately surprised to be asked suddenly like that. Someone forgot to introduce him to the owner of this apartment."I... I-""Are you Matt's boyfriend?" Greyson jumped at his guess.Just now this person signaled Greyson to refuse Matt's request. Wasn't that a sign of

Chapter 55. The Man in the Golden Mask
Naomi hid a small knife that she had intended to use to cut her restraints. It was a folding knife, less than four inches long, barely noticeable when held in her palm. After hours in captivity, she had devised several strategies. This tiny knife was her last card, carefully concealed within the folds of her clothing.Outside, a few people were talking. Their voices were deliberately lowered, making it impossible to make out their conversation. Then came the sound of a lock being undone, followed by the creak of a turning doorknob. The door pushed open from the outside. Three people stepped into the dimly lit room where Naomi was held.The room itself was shrouded in mystery. The stone walls were old, with peeling paint. A small window was covered by heavy drapes, blocking out all light. The air smelled of dampness and dust, as if the place had been abandoned for years.Naomi’s sharp gaze landed on the man standing directly before her. He wore a dark coat, and his long blonde hair cas
Chapter 54. Mr. Reed Is Missing Too
For a moment, Greyson frowned. He had caught a glimpse of worry in Mrs. Reed’s expression.He raised his voice slightly, trying to remain polite. "Mrs. Reed, I am Naomi’s brother. We’re very worried. Could you let me in?"He knocked on the door repeatedly.No response. No movement either.Greyson repeated his actions once more."Ma’am, if there’s a problem, you can talk to me. We can help each other."This time, the door creaked open slightly, revealing the weary and anxious face of the middle-aged woman. Her eyes scrutinized Greyson from head to toe, as if trying to read his thoughts. Traces of dried tears were still visible on her wrinkled cheeks."Come in," Mrs. Reed finally said, her voice hoarse.The simple living room was filled with an air of unease. Family photos adorned the walls, showcasing moments of happiness from the Reed family’s past. A few houseplants near the window looked wilted, as if mirroring the distress of the home’s occupants. Mrs. Reed sat in a chair facing Gr
Chapter 53. The Investigation
Greyson grabbed his phone from the desk and quickly dialed Ivy’s number.The ringing repeated several times before Ivy’s firm voice answered from the other end."Grey? You finally called me," Ivy sounded exhausted."What happened to Naomi?" Greyson asked immediately, regretting that he had ignored all their calls.A heavy sigh came from the other end. "Naomi went to her parents’ house as planned, but after that..." Ivy paused. "She never came back, Grey. No calls, no messages, and her phone has been off.""What have you found out so far?" he asked in a calm voice."My people have been investigating," Ivy replied. "Naomi’s parents are clean. They’re just as confused as we are.""Any other leads?" Greyson asked again, walking toward the window.He gazed at the cityscape below."We’re looking into the man her parents introduced her to," Ivy continued, her tone laced with displeasure. "That man is on a business trip out of town. I’ve had someone follow him, but so far, nothing suspicious.
Chapter 52. The Women Who Were Too Busy
"His name is Matt Vegan," Jacob announced enthusiastically to everyone. "You must have heard of him. He's a famous actor."A brief silence followed. The faces on the phone screen exchanged confused looks."Never heard of him," Silvia was the first to reply, followed by nods from Ivy and Samantha.Jacob groaned loudly, furrowing his brows in disappointment. Matt was incredibly famous. Half the women in the country adored him. He stared at the screen in disbelief. But these women—either too busy or simply uninterested in entertainment news—claimed not to know him."Sorry, his name has never appeared in any financial reports I read," Silvia replied dryly."I don't like reading gossip magazines," Ivy added, crossing her arms defensively. "Besides, I have more important things to do than watch people act.""Same here. I have a lot of patients to take care of," Samantha chimed in."So, how do you know this Matt guy?" Ivy asked, her tone sharp and investigative. Her eyes narrowed suspiciousl
Chapter 51. The Terrifying Video Call
Silvia’s face appeared on the screen first. Her usually neat hair was slightly messy, a clear sign that she was busy with work.“What is it, Naomi? I’m in the middle of something,” she said with a hint of annoyance before her eyes landed on Greyson behind Naomi. “Oh, Grey?”Greyson offered a small smile toward the screen. “Hello, Silvia.” Then, he tried to move out of the camera’s view, but Jacob deliberately pushed him back into the frame.“Silvia, do you remember our childhood promise with Grey?” Naomi asked without preamble.Silvia’s eyes suddenly sparkled, her professional demeanor crumbling in an instant. “Which one? Oh, you mean that promise?” She chuckled.“Exactly,” Naomi nodded in satisfaction. “Grey here thinks we’ve all forgotten about it.”“Forgotten?” Silvia raised an eyebrow. “How could I possibly forget? I even kept the agreement he signed with a red crayon.”“You kept it?!” Greyson couldn’t hide his shock.“Of course, Grey. It’s a legal document.” Silvia grinned mischi
Chapter 50. A Childhood Promise
The room fell silent. Even Jacob stopped chewing his food.As far as he knew, all four of Greyson’s sisters’ biological parents had passed away."Your biological parents?" Greyson asked. "I thought they were dead?"Naomi nodded. "They were just an ordinary couple living in another city. I’ve met them a few times.""How... how are they?" Greyson asked carefully, realizing how sensitive this topic was for Naomi."They’re good," Naomi replied with a small smile. "They’re kind people. But...""But?""After meeting them a few times, they introduced me to a strange man," Naomi continued with a hint of annoyance in her tone. "And they suggested that I marry him."Jacob nearly choked on his drink. "Just like that? After only meeting a few times?""Yep," Naomi laughed dryly. "It seems like they’re eager to see me ‘happy’ according to their definition."Greyson nodded slowly, unsure how to respond. He wasn’t someone who was good at comforting others or giving advice."That reminds me," Naomi su
Chapter 49. Learning to Cook
Greyson, who was usually stubborn, always found himself helpless when it came to Naomi. With a long sigh, he stood up and approached his sister.“Alright. What do you want me to do?” he asked reluctantly.For the next hour, Greyson’s kitchen turned into a chaotic training ground. Naomi patiently gave instructions, demonstrated, and Greyson tried to follow. The results were disastrous.“Oh my God, Grey! You can’t cut onions like that!” Naomi nearly screamed when she saw Greyson brutally massacring an onion. “You’re chopping it like you’re torturing someone!”“It’s just an onion,” Greyson muttered, not understanding why something so small could make his sister so frustrated.“It’s an art,” Naomi corrected, taking the knife from him. “Look, like this. The motion has to be smooth and consistent.”Greyson tried again, but the results weren’t much better. When it was time to sauté, hot oil splattered everywhere, nearly hitting Naomi’s face.“Okay, enough!” Naomi finally threw her hands up i
Chapter 48. Naomi’s Visit
There were still a few days left before Greyson had to leave for the island training. Strangely, he didn’t even think about it. It was as if the looming threat of death was nothing but a passing breeze. As usual, Greyson continued working diligently at the company, spending his time in front of computer screens and stacks of documents.He also refused to meet with Brooks’ father, who had offered to sell their land at half the original purchase price. It wasn’t just intentional—Greyson was genuinely busy.That evening, Greyson’s usually quiet apartment was startled by the sharp sound of the doorbell. He glanced at the clock—it was almost dinnertime. Hopefully, it wasn’t Matt again.Checking the monitor screen, Greyson was slightly surprised to see Naomi—his third sister. He quickly opened the door. Naomi stood before him with a wide smile, carrying several large shopping bags in her hands.“Surprise!” Naomi exclaimed cheerfully, stepping inside without waiting for an invitation. “I tho
Chapter 47. Just an Accident
Greyson remained seated, seemingly unaware of the flash of metal hurtling toward him.Time slowed. Suddenly, the phone in his hand slipped and fell to the floor. He bent down to pick it up.Whoosh!The bullet whizzed past exactly where his head had been a second ago, striking the wall behind him and sending a cloud of dust and shattered plaster into the air.“Holy shit!” Jacob shouted, his face turning pale. With a swift movement, he lunged at Matt and snatched the gun from his hand. “What the hell are you doing, you idiot?!”Matt froze, his mouth slightly open. His face didn’t show the panic one would expect from someone who had nearly killed his friend. Instead, his expression was unreadable—somewhere between shock and... disappointment?“I... I didn’t mean to,” Matt finally muttered, his voice low. “I didn’t realize the trigger was that sensitive.”Greyson straightened up, his gaze shifting from the bullet hole in the wall to Matt, his expression unnaturally calm. As if his near-d
