I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 174 : An Unexpected Relation
"As we know, Axielo went undercover as Axelio Addams, an intern teacher at Miguel Anderson's daugher school. He used that trick to get close to Tiffany Anderson and it looks like he succeeded." Antonio looked serious listening to Verlaine's explanation. "I know that he used that cheap trick, but he succeeded?" "Yes. He used it to threaten Miguel and get what he wanted from Miguel, and since Miguel loves his family, especially his daughter, it looks like he will do what Axielo wants." "Are you sure?" Verlaine didn't answer. He handed over his cell phone and played a voice recording of the conversation between Miguel and Xiel that night. "This is the voice recording I got after a guard gave it to me. He knows that we know what he's doing, but he keeps saying nonsense as if he has nothing to fear from us." Antonio listened, and his forehead furrowed sharply when Miguel said his deal offer. "He plans to betray us, father. What are you going to do?" Antonio didn't say anything, bu
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 175 : The Sunday's Bad Luck
[Denver] On a sunny Sunday, Tiffany and her older brother, Jayden Anderson, decided to go for a walk. They went to the library because Jayden had something to read, after which he would accompany Tiffany to play until she was satisfied. "Is Ethan really that busy?" said Tiffany, talking about her first brother. She sat near the park while waiting for Jayden to bring her ice cream. "Why are you asking Ethan? He already said he couldn't go, right?" Jayden, who heard Tiffany, replied. He brought Tiffany her blueberry ice cream and sat next to her. Tiffany sighed heavily. "I just miss him a little," Tiffany replied. "The older we get, the more things we have to do to live independently. But living independently doesn't mean you don't need siblings or friends anymore, right?" "What do you mean. Do you think Ethan seems like an anti-social person after he working?" "It's not like that... but because he puts work first, I feel like he doesn't have time to see me. It's been a week si
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 176 : She's Started To Smell Something
Tiffany waited in great panic and anxiety outside the ER, waiting for the doctors and medics to administer first aid to Jayden. Tiffany panicked to the point of not knowing what to do when she saw Jayden unconscious with a pale face and blood flowing from his stab wound. That stranger must be the one who did it. But why, and what did he say to her earlier? Tiffany was still so scared that her hands were shaking. She sat up and stood up very anxiously, but it seemed like the doctor wasn't done yet to come out and give Tiffany some good news. "Tiffany...?" Until Tiffany heard the voice, she immediately stood up and her tears instantly spilled out. "Mr. Axel~" Xiel ran over and hugged Tiffany, letting her cry as it was obvious that she had been holding back her tears since she was alone. "Mr. Axel, I don't understand what happened. Jayden and I went to have fun but why did it end like this? I'm so scared, Mr. Axel, I'm so scared~" Xiel rubbed Tiffany's back, soothing the girl even
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 177 : Vander Knows
"Vander? What are you doing here?""Ah...."Victor had absolutely no clue why Vander was also in this place.While Vander also looked surprised and at a loss to speak for a few seconds, until Scarlett intervened and said, "Mr. Victor, welcome. I am so happy that you're come."Scarlett stood in front of Victor, as if to change the focus."Thank you for inviting me to come, Mrs. Scarlett. But do you know Vander too? Why is he also here?""Ah... well, I know Vander and I did invite for him to come. I'm glad that he took the time to come tonight."Victor glanced at Vander, still looking confused and searching for an answer but Vander averted his eyes. As if refusing to give an explanation, at least for now - when Scarlett and Johnny said that they should go to their seats."Mrs. Scarlett, I have something to ask you," Victor asked for a little time.But Scarlett seemed to be trying to distract Victor by continuing to ask him to get out of there, to their seats.What could Victor do? Maybe
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 178 : Connection Of Matthias and Violet
After the opera, Victor went to see Scarlett. Scarlett seemed to know what Victor wanted to say, she used a room in the theater to entertain Victor; talking alone with him."As I said; I will entertain you with my best efforts, Mr. Victor." Scarlett served the best quality steak and red wine to Victor.But since Victor had other things to say, Scarlett didn't look flustered at Victor who seemed impatient to talk."The assistant you brought, I've already taken care of her in another room. I hope she doesn't feel uncomfortable because I separated you from her.""Ah, Ella is an understanding woman. I'm sure she'll be fine.""I hope so too. Now, please enjoy my little banquet, Mr. Victor."Victor smiled. He should be more patient and not make Scarlett feel uncomfortable.Victor and Scarlett enjoyed the dinner quietly until a few bites. For someone who had just learned table manners, seeing Scarlett eat with such graceful etiquette amazed Victor.Being a nobleman since childhood would stil
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 179 : Love And Betrayal
[Baton Rouge]Dylan Rall was in his room; monitoring the jewelry production process in the production house as the leader. But it had been 30 minutes and he was still brooding, daydreaming when again he thought of Rihana, his lover.Time had flown by; how he met Rihana, fell in love with her, then lost her. Everything went like the wind, but the feelings left behind were like scars that wouldn't go away easily.Dylan sighed, covering his face with a paper while faced the ceiling."How long has it been since I last spoke to Victor?" Dylan asked, feeling abrupt because he didn't think he cared about Victor right now.Ever since the argument that day, Dylan had found himself distancing himself from Victor and he was trying to do just that. Dylan no longer talked about his work with Victor and had someone send Victor a report, staying away from Victor also meant staying away from his brothers.Last time Dylan heard that Victor and Violet's relationship wasn't going well either; even Viole
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 180 : I'll Try
[New Orleans] Victor almost choked when he heard what Scarlett said to him; about the explanation of Scarlett's words before. But Victor did not expect that he would hear such a tragic story of Matthias and Sahara's love story. "You may not believe me, but a mother will never forget how she lost her son." Scarlett said that Matthias didn't die in an accident or because of health problems, but Antonio had a big part in it. "Is that why the reason for Mr. Matthias' death was never known to the common people?" Scarlett nodded. "Do I sound like I'm making things up?" "No, I believe you, Mrs. Scarlett." Victor replied immediately. "Because I also know that cold-hearted demon is not someone who considers the lives of others is something precious, let alone those of people he doesn't like." Victor clenched his fists and held himself back as he recalled the night he had knelt and begged in front of Antonio, only to be rejected and humiliated by him. The night when Victor failed to sav
I AM THE MASTER OF UNLIMITED DOLLAR SYSTEM 181 : Let's Be Merciless And End This Soon
[Denver] Xiel couldn't feel at ease after what happened to Tiffany's brother. Even if it was only for a moment, Xiel could feel that Tiffany was a little awkward and trying to stay away from him. What the man said who attacked Jayden to Tiffany must have affected the girl, and although Xiel had promised to prove that he had nothing to do with the attacker, Tiffany still had her doubts about him.Until Xiel could prove it to Tiffany, the girl had a high probability of continuing to keep her distance from him. If Xiel lost Tiffany's trust, he would not be able to threaten Miguel while he had not gotten what he wanted. Or for the last resort.... "I should really kill that girl." But Xiel didn't look happy about that possibility, maybe because he had to go the extra mile and it was troublesome? Or because he really didn't want to hurt Tiffany. Either way, the amount of time they spent together as teacher and student, and as friends, must have made Xiel have some sympathy for the gi

Violet slowly opened the door to the room with the overpowering medical odor. She took a quick glance inside, and now had a perfect view of the figure sitting on the thickly blanketed bed as she glanced out the large glass window. Seemingly lost in thought, he seemed calm and unconcerned about his surroundings. Even when Violet pulled out a chair and took a comfortable spot to sit next to him, Victor remained passive. Violet glanced at her man with a quizzical look, as if she wanted to start a conversation. After five days of unconsciousness, Victor finally opened his eyes this morning. Violet rushed to him to see how he was doing, but it seemed that only his physical state had improved. Violet ventured to touch Victor's hand, and to her surprise, Victor flinched. Violet couldn't help but be surprised by the man's response. "Violet...," Victor said in a low voice, he looked up at Violet but those eyes seemed to be empty without a focal point. "You were here, I didn't realize,"

Connor approached Emily, then looked at the little girl’s sleeping face while gently rubbing her slightly gaunt cheeks. “So... how did it go?” asked Connor, Jack flinched as he understood what the question meant. However, Jack chose to remain silent, making Connor smile because he suspected that his guess was correct. “Failed, yes...,” the old man said, smiling haughtily.“I won’t give up, Dad.” Jack said with conviction, making his father look down on him even more. “I’ll try until Emily gets her new heart.”“You’re pretty optimistic for a kid who just felt the pain of failure after not listening to his parents, Jack. Don’t you want to complain and complain to this father of yours?” Jack was silent, his jaw hardening as he held back his anger. He knew full well that all his father was doing now was mocking his failure, making Jack feel reminded of the pain when his high hopes ended in failure again.Indirectly, Connor seemed to be saying: "Expecting kindness from a monster like Victo

After a few minutes spent cleaning up, Violet and Victor met back at the dining table for breakfast. As before, there weren’t many ingredients in Victor’s refrigerator. Violet used the ingredients she had on hand to make breakfast, and thankfully it didn’t turn out too badly.Victor doesn’t wait long and eats his share of breakfast. Violet stares at him intently, waiting for his reaction. But Victor just ate without saying anything. Even though he was eating well, Violet was still waiting for a comment from him. And when she didn’t get one, the girl chuckled. It made Victor stop eating and ask, “What’s wrong?”Violet looked at him with pouting lips. “You’re not going to compliment my cooking again this time?”“I already ate it.”“But at the very least, I want to hear your comet. You kept eating without saying anything.”“I already ate it, isn’t that clear evidence that I didn’t reject your food. At least the taste is still acceptable to the human tongue, hence why this human wants to

Violet opened her eyes and frowned. Her blurred vision clearly felt unfamiliar with the place where she opened her eyes, but no sooner had she paused and remembered, than Violet remembered where she was. Because of this, she hurriedly turned her body around to find Victor sleeping next to her.This was the second time Violet had woken up looking at Victor’s face to start her day. But the first time, Violet hadn’t been this close. She and Victor were like two poles far apart, but now they were like twigs and leaves that were always attached.Violet moved closer, wanting to see the details of the man’s face more closely. As she stood still and looked at him, Violet realized that Victor was indeed as handsome as everyone said he was. All this time she had recognized it silently, covered in prestige and always denying it even to herself. But now, she didn’t hesitate to smile, amazed.Her mind, which had not been filled with anything, was now filled with Victor, Victor and Victor. Violet w

Jack was silent for a moment, at a loss for an answer. “I-I did it because I had no other choice. I wanted a child so badly-““Well, I see,” Verlaine said, interrupting Jack’s unfinished speech, “the fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree,” he said with a quiet murmur.Verlaine then cleared his throat loudly, as if signaling he was about to begin his important conversation with Connor and Jack tonight.Connor began with, “As you told me on the phone that you would tell me about the next plan tonight. Tell me.”Verlaine raised both eyebrows. “Ouh... you’re so impatient, Mr. Grayson,” he said in a joking tone. “Is it because it’s late, so you don’t want to make small talk any longer?”“I brought Jack so you can use him for your plans too,” Connor replied, changing the subject.Verlaine raised one eyebrow, realizing that Connor was really impatient for the plan he had. “Well... I’ll say it,” Verlaine said then, no longer wanting to mince words. “In a few days, there will be a party held by

"Beautiful tuxedo," said the man with hazel eyes, to the short-haired woman standing in front of him. "When did you buy it?"Maria smiled broadly, pleased that the choice item she had bought for Verlaine had responded so well to the man. She rushed to her lover, sitting on Verlaine's lap intimately as she put her arms around his neck."I bought it a long time ago but since you've been so busy lately, it's been difficult for me to find the right time to give it to you," Maria said, explaining in more detail. Verlaine simply nodded and smiled, though his heart was still cold as ever. "Do you like it?" Maria's question drew Verlaine's gaze away from his gift.The man smiled sweetly, growing wider. "Of course," he replied, pecking her cheek gently.Maria was delighted. She then without hesitation kissed him briefly on the lips, showing her happiness. They looked at each other for a few seconds, until Maria spoke up again."Verlaine, what did you do during your vacation? That place yo

That distracted Violet from the beautiful dresses before her. “Really? What is it?” “A wedding anniversary celebration.” “Ah, Mrs. Scarlett and her husband, huh?” said Violet, smiling, her eyes focused on the dresses again. “Your adoptive parents will be celebrating their wedding anniversary. It must be a happy day for them.” “We’re also allowed to be happy on their happy day.” Violet froze, frowning in confusion. “What do you mean?” she asked later. “Should we go to the dance?” asked Victor, causing Violet to turn her face away slowly. The girl stared at Victor, confirming her thoughts which were immediately confirmed by Victor’s next words. “Should we pick out the dresses now?” Violet, of course, would immediately smile widely. She nodded her head with twinkling eyes, looking very excited and happy. The two of them started their agenda; choosing a dress that would be used to attend the celebration party like Victor said. While her feet were busy moving to and fro, Violet’s l

Later that day, they decided to go out. The romantic term is 'date'. Victor waited for Violet to get ready, and Violet waited for Victor to get ready. One thing in common was that as a result of the waiting time, they were mesmerized by each other's charms in their date-ready best. Violet smiled broadly, waiting for Victor to come out of the room and watching him from the dining table with her chin propped up. "Your dress sense isn't much different from the last time, but somehow it looks so luxurious and appropriate this time," Violet says, complimenting him. Victor smiled slightly and walked over. "Is it because I'm seeing it with love this time? You look absolutely marvelous." "I didn't know you were the type to compliment your partner," Victor said, taking Violet's hand to lead her out of the apartment. "Hm. I didn't know I was the type of person to do this to their partner either. You were my first partner, you know?" "Really?" "Yeah... I've only ever confessed my feelings,

Meanwhile, Verlaine was now hurrying away to a place, which was none other than his private apartment. There, he would meet Maria who had just finished cooking a meal for herself. Maria had no idea that Verlaine had returned from his ‘vacation’ in Vermont, she only knew that he had extended his vacation on the pretext of falling in love with the vast and soothing expanse of grass.Hence, when she saw his presence at the technological door, she couldn’t help shouting his name. “VERLAINE...!” The woman ran at full speed, rushing to hug Verlaine tightly while her body was twisted like a romance scene in a movie.“Are you coming home today?” asked Maria as soon as Verlaine released her embrace. She was delighted to see Verlaine standing in front of her after they had not seen each other for almost a week.“Yes. I wanted to give you a surprise,” Verlaine replied as he kissed Maria’s neck, making her grimace occasionally in amusement. “You were surprised?”“I’m so surprised that I’m speech
