Victor woke up and felt his head hurt a lot. It was like he couldn't lift his head on his own, as if there was a big iron holding it down.It might have been better for Victor to stay lying down, but when he saw the dried blood around him, he was startled and got up."What happened to me?" He asked, looking confused. But then he remembered."Ouch," he holds the back of his head, where Damian hit him with the vase. "Damn, he really doesn't hesitate to kill someone."Victor then remembered one more thing, which immediately made him panic and look around, realizing that it was late."Shit! What's he going to do to Vania?" Victor fidgeted, looking for the door to the room with the many file cabinets. He found it, and as expected, it was locked.[Ting!]The notification from his system sounded. Victor froze looking at the system screen that appeared in front of him.[Oh no! The user is in distress and locked in a room!]Victor frowned.[A new task has arrived][Complete 3 fortune tasks thi
Vania was still trying to break herself free. Already on the floor after fell within her chair, and crawling like a caterpillar with a wooden block on top of her.Making her way to the door, Vania hit it with the chair she was still tied to and called for help."Help me! Get me out of here! Somebody help me!" she shouted, but her voice was muffled by the music that was playing in the party room very well.Damian also seemed to have forgotten about Vania and didn't look remorseful at all about what he did.Damian looked at all his guests, they were complete. The glass of wine that had been with him, he carried it to the stage with a mic in his hand."Good evening my precious guests." The music was turned down, people's gazes turned towards Damian who spoke. "Thank you for coming to my birthday party and celebrating this happy day with me. I hope today's banquet can satisfy you and make you feel the happiness that I feel today. Enjoy the party, eat as much as you can, dance freely. This
Victor took off the mask immediately. Being around the fire would make him melt, especially since the fire had started to burn half of the fifth floor.As he ran towards the sealed room, Victor just hoped that he wasn't too late and Vania could still be saved."Help me, someone help me!"Victor was stunned when he heard the cry. Followed by the sound of a crash from inside there.Vania really was in the room, and he was momentarily relieved to hear that Vania could still shout for help.Victor ran over to the locked door."Vania! Vania, can you hear me?" Victor asked."Victor?""Yes, it's me.""Victor, please get me out of here! Please save me~" Vania cried even harder, hoping Victor could save her. "In here, the fire has gotten bigger and almost burned every spot. I'm scared, it's so hot in here."Victor braced himself. "I will save you, Vania. I will definitely keep you safe." His words calmed Vania down. "Are you hurt?" Victor asked, looking for something to open the lock."No, I'm
The fire alarm sounded shrill while everyone was enjoying the party. They were confused, until one of the waiters shouted, "FIRE! THERE'S A FIRE ON THE THIRD FLOOR!"Of course, the guests panicked."Everyone out of the room!" Damian shouted, instructing everyone to get out. It was quite tense and suffocating as they flocked out. "Don't push each other! I don't want you guys to get hurt!"A few panicked people made a scene, but Damian seemed fine with it. He even smiled with relief when he realized that by now, Vania was probably burnt to a crisp.But Damian didn't realize that Violet was secretly watching him, and her look of bewilderment when she saw Damian smiling in this situation.All the guests had left, with Damian coming out last. The man ran to his parents who seemed worried.Amelia immediately hugged Damian who had just come out."Damian...." The woman looked very worried, but was also relieved to see that her son was okay. "How did this happen? Your house....""It's okay, Mo
Dylan waited anxiously outside the fence. As Victor had requested, he waited and would enter when the police arrived.Everyone was already outside when the fire alarm went off, and Dylan really wanted to go in if only the police could arrive soon.Before long, two police cars arrived. Dylan was very relieved and happy that he could go in as soon as the police approached him and went in with him.He had to get to Victor and make sure he was out of the house."It's Victor!" he said, excited to see Victor outside. Excited, Dylan ran over to Victor and told him that his task was complete. Dylan managed to get the police to arrive on time."VIC-"BANG!!!But Dylan hadn't even finished saying Victor's name, and he witnessed his best friend being shot by a revolver with an eerie, echoing gunshot.Dylan was dumbfounded, his eyes wide and unaware of what he was witnessing."VICTOR!!!"Violet screamed hysterically, she ran through the crowd of people to get to Victor who was lying there with sm
After the hug and the words, things got a little awkward between Violet and Victor.They've sat apart since a nurse arrived to check Victor's condition."Hey, are you going to stay put, or are you going home?" Victor asked after nearly 15 minutes of silence with Violet.Violet tried to act normal, but it was evident that she was feeling awkward. Did she regret her own decision to hug Victor?"Do you regret hugging me?""H-huh?"Victor looked at Violet with his calm, cold face. "Do you wish you could turn back the clock to avoid hugging me?""Why are you talking like that?""Your face looks like you want to talk like that."Violet bit her lower lip. It was true that she felt that her spontaneous reaction was embarrassing. Still, she had no regrets after hugging Victor out of sheer delight."I was just so happy that you weren't dead. I didn't think about my actions."Victor nodded. "Makes sense," he said. "So, how long have I been asleep?""Three days.""Wow. That's quite a long time."
"VICTOR!!!"Victor was surprised to hear someone calling his name as the door opened loudly.He immediately turned around and saw Dylan and Vania coming in together.Victor tried to sit up, but Dylan immediately gave him a tight, suffocating hug, certainly painful for his injured hand."VICTOR...I THOUGHT I'D LOST YOU. WHY DID YOU DO THAT STUPID THING!?""Hey, control your power. Did you forget I just almost died?"Dylan, who had closed his eyes, now opened them and sat up quickly on the chair."You didn't die, did you? You got ready and put on that bulletproof vest before coming in!" said Dylan, sounding like he was protesting."Yes...but still running around in the middle of a fire while carrying that thick and heavy vest on your body felt like I'm about to dying. Especially when I jumped from the top floor of that house!"Victor then fell silent, not wanting to relive his bad experience.Then Vania spoke up. "How is your feeling now, Vic?" This time, Vania spoke in a soft tone to Vi
Dylan looked dumbfounded by what Victor had said, but the blond-haired man seemed to take it all in stride."Why did you fire him?" Dylan asked."Because we couldn't work together any longer.""What was the reason?""Hm...Violet's relationship with my company has been one of reciprocity since the beginning. I helped her once and she wanted me to repay her by accepting her help as my assistant. She also said that she only needed to return my favor, and I considered it done. She doesn't have any obligation to repay me, so I also think it's better to end our working relationship."Dylan still didn't understand Victor's thoughts. "But isn't Miss Violet your assistant? She's helping you learn the business, right?""Yes. But I can find another assistant. You don't have to worry and do your part well. Okay?""But, Vic, we've already got Miss Vania and you just need to open the shop and run the company, why did you take Miss Violet out?""Dylan...," Victor called, making Dylan pause, "I can't
