William was on his way home, and it seemed that for this trip, he was still followed by his bodyguards. Arriving at a place that was somewhat quiet and safe from William's friends, they stopped the road and handed him a cell phone that was connected to his grandfather's personal assistant's call."Sir, prepare to join the servants we have prepared, your grandfather would like to invite you to dinner right now," said his grandfather's personal assistant.What! William was quite surprised to receive the news. He had just gotten food from Vera and it hadn't been touched at all!"Sir, come in. We will escort you to one of the boutiques here and there will also be stylists who will take care of the look or this evening to make it perfect for Mr. Lucas Anderson," said William's bodyguard."Oh my! What about this food?" William asked himself. There's no way his stomach can handle two menus at once!Ah, he might as well keep it. At least if he microwaves it, it'll be good for tomorrow morning
Vera launches her car through the streets of Chicago towards William's apartment. In the car, in the back seat, Sarah sits with a glum face. She mumbles to herself about William not having enough money to even pay for a taxi to go to the karaoke place. She was clearly frustrated with the situation.Vera heard Sarah's mumbling and felt the need to drown out her cousin's voice. With a quick movement, she grabbed a piece of gum from her bag and gave it to Sarah, hoping to shut her up.William was waiting out front and the man got into the car. Vera welcomed him and they drove straight to the karaoke place.The car then drove at a fairly high speed, passing through the city streets that were starting to get crowded on a weekend afternoon. The city is alive with people strolling on the sidewalks, the sound of music from bars and clubs, and the occasional honking of cars, until they arrive at "Harmony Echoes", a luxurious and prominent karaoke place in the city center.Vera parked her car i
"Oh, no thanks," William said, declining Vera's offer. He didn't want to burden Vera or anyone else there.Robert smiled with satisfaction. He really didn't want to treat William. For Robert, his money was too valuable to be used to treat William."I'll just have a burger afterwards," William said, trying to ease the tension."It's okay, Will," Vera said, still offering to treat William. "I'll treat you with my money.""Vera!" exclaimed Sarah. She didn't want Vera spending money to buy William food. Moreover, the man had no money to come here at all."What do you want too?" asked Vera to Sarah, still offering to buy. "I'll buy it for you."Sarah refused. "I'm here to protect you from him," Sarah said, insinuating William."Then take it easy. I still have enough money in my pocket," Vera said, trying to calm things down.Sarah could only roll her eyes. She felt frustrated by Vera's overly kind attitude."Never mind, don't worry," Robert said, trying to act like a hero. He saw this as a
The people who followed William turned out to be waiters who brought premium food for them. They seemed to be carrying a wide variety of delicacies that appeared to be very expensive.Sarah looked frozen, seemingly unable to believe what she was seeing. Vera looked shocked, she didn't expect that William could get this kind of luxurious service.Neil and George were also surprised. Robert had said that William was just an orphaned hobo, so how could he get this kind of luxurious service?The servants left wordlessly, leaving them all in a curious state. They were curious about how William could get this kind of service.William was already inside and he pulled Robert's hand. "Let go of Vera!" said William, trying to protect Vera."What, huh!" said Robert, incredulous. He pushed William to the ground. "So, after begging, you want to fight me?"The atmosphere in the room changed drastically. What had been full of laughter and singing was now tense and silent. George and Neil, who were u
Inside the toilet, William quickly picked up his cell phone and checked the contacts. He found Sean's name and immediately pressed the call. After a few rings, Sean's voice was heard on the other end of the line. William quickly explained what had happened and asked for Sean's help to take care of all this.Sean understood the situation William described. He promised that he would solve it immediately. "I'll take care of it, don't worry," Sean said in a calm voice. This way the business was done.William could not return to the room. If he went back, his friends would ask a lot of questions and he didn't want to answer all those questions. So, William decided to leave and let them think for themselves about how to solve this problem.Meanwhile, in the karaoke room, Ben suddenly received a call."What!" Ben rounded his eyes, apparently very surprised by what he had just heard.William's four friends could only wait with anxious hearts. They looked very worried and scared of what would
William would indeed help her. However, he didn't want to be conspicuous."Merida, I'm a loser. How dare I get involved in your problems." William said sarcastically."Will?" Merida knitted her eyebrows. Apparently, this man was not to be expected."Sorry, Gentlemen." William was casual. "I was just passing by. It looks like your car is blocking my way.""You son of a bitch!" The bad guy pointed at William. "You're already bothering us."William smiled. "Sorry for bothering you."Merida, who had left William in favor of Jordan, was now forced to follow the man in order to save him from the men who were about to take him away.Not long after William walked away, the evil man looked at Merida with evil intentions. Merida gulped, feeling scared and desperate. She chose to run a little after William.Suddenly, William's hand felt warm. He turned his head and saw Merida already standing beside him, her hand tightly grasping Willim's arm."Please, Will!" Merida whispered, her voice full of
Actually, what happened before was that William made a note to the bodyguards following him to send some money to replace the money used by Merida. They would receive the money in full as long as they kept it a secret that William had commissioned Merida's debt to be paid.Meanwhile, Merida knew nothing about what was going on. She just watched from where she was until the man returned and whispered the secret word.The two bad guys looked at William with a heavy gaze. They bowed their heads slightly, a sign that they recognized William's superiority. They understood that they couldn't fight William, and that they had to obey what he said."Alright then today the matter is settled. And you!" one of the bad guys pointed at Merida who was standing behind William. "Today you are lucky enough that this young man saved you. Our business is over. But, next time don't you dare mess with me again!"They turned around and left, leaving a confused Merida behind William. Merida stared at William
"Jordan, come on!" cried Merida, breaking the silence. "You and I both know that we watched William buy at that expensive watch shop. In fact, you even asked the cashier yourself."Jordan blinked, feeling shocked and humiliated. He never thought Merida would bring it up in front of everyone. "You didn't have to say that!" he protested angrily.The others fell silent, shocked by Merida's confession."Oh my gosh, so you knew about the expensive watch?" Rudy, who always liked to interfere, couldn't help but react. He was also curious because he had also insulted William earlier.Vera was surprised. However, she had known from the start that William would never lie. She sat down with a bored expression. She was actually lazy about all this drama and was forced to be friends with them for reasons she wasn't sure of. But, she felt the need to speak up."Rudy, you've even slandered William!" Vera reminded."Me?" Rudy looked confused and surprised. He didn't expect to be Vera's target."Yes!"
