I Am Not A Fool Chapter 103
"Mr. Dakota, you should come to this party. The great master is waiting for you." Dakota saw a black invitation in the man's hand with gold ornaments on the edges of the thick invitation. Then suddenly, Dakota woke up from his sleep.Dakota scrunched his eyes, rubbing his sore eyes. He tried to recall the dream in his sleep earlier. "I dreamt about something weird." Dakota pulled back the covers and got out of bed. "Who was waiting for me, and whose invitation was it?" He tried to remember the name on the invitation, but he only retained the shape of the invitation. "Never mind."He left her room, heading for the bathroom to wash his face, brush his teeth, and ensure his facial hair was clean. Then he opened his refrigerator. "I'm not in the mood to cook today." He mumbled, looking at his fridge full of ingredients.Since he had cooked last night, he felt lazy. Cooking was quite simple, but sometimes, he was reluctant to do it. Everything else was still intact besides the ribeye he ma

"This place is stunning." Anna's eyes lit up as she wandered around the vast party hall. She held Dakota's hand after they showed her the invitation card they had brought. Showing the proof that they were invited to the place, Anna glanced at Dakota. "Well, this party doesn't look like a grandparents' celebration, does it?" Anna laughed.Dakota shared his look. Then he nodded in agreement. The place did not look like a celebration for the elderly. He could see that the party looked more like a royal party. Everything looked marvelous. "No wonder you're so enthusiastic and call it marvelous. The event is indeed amazingly made." Dakota marveled at how luxurious the place was, which made her admire James even more.Although the party hall was spacious and extraordinarily luxurious, with various banquets on the tables, the guests who came to the place were not crowded at all. They seemed to be standing in groups or sitting in one place and then going back and forth to other groups, talkin

"Sit down." James invited Dakota to sit in one of the chairs in the room.Currently, Dakota, James, and the man who was James' servant were in a closed room. The room was no bigger than the previous hall, it didn't look like a living room and more like a private study, but the appearance was so luxurious, themed with a classic feel. The ornaments in the room were almost completely made of brown wood that was varnished in such a way that it was shiny.Dakota sat in one of the wooden chairs with cushions on the seat. Then he saw James himself pouring tea, which Dakota didn't know what kind of tea it was, from a pot into a small cup and then handed it to Dakota.James then looked at Dakota, who seemed to be staring at the tea in the cup. "It's called fennel tea, good for your health." He smiled at Dakota. He slowly sipped the tea with pleasure and then observed Dakota again. "Drink it. This tea has many benefits if you drink it regularly."Dakota lifted his cup, then sniffed the odor fro

"I guess sweets are better in any situation," Dakota muttered, walking around the city adjacent to the sea after parking his car. He glanced at the people enjoying the afternoon while sipping cold americanos that looked fresh as they drank, but he didn't feel so. "Bitter drinks will only torment your throat." He muttered as he stared at them. Then he turned his gaze in another direction.In the direction Dakota was looking, a fairly large supermarket was standing majestically in the middle of the city, far away from where she lived. Dakota's eyes lit up at something written there. "There's a big discount there." He was interested in shopping.Even though he was already wealthy, it seemed that Dakota still couldn't forget his habits when he was poor. He is still tempted by discounts despite having a lot of money. Dakota walked over and entered the supermarkets, which were crowded with mostly housewives."Hurry up and we'll run out!" Dakota glanced at the mothers who walked hurriedly fr

"That wasn't entirely my fault." Dakota walked up to him and spoke to him. "It's your fault you tried to take what I have." He emphasized one thing.If that woman hadn't tried to snatch the small ball that he took, then that kind of incident wouldn't have happened either. After all, she didn't pay any damages, and he was the one who paid for the fine, so he had no reason to be upset.The woman looked at Dakota with widened eyes. "My fault, you say?" Her body moved to face Dakota. From the look on her face, she didn't seem to accept Dakota's words. "Don't you understand the concept? How can you call that thing yours? If you haven't got it in your hands, then it's not yours. You haven't even paid for it!" Her gaze looked dumbfounded. "Damn it, how nice of you to accuse me of causing that mess while you're the one who hit me so hard." The woman spoke somewhat softly while glancing at the motorcycle she was carrying.The motorcycle would not start. Where the problem was, she did not know.

James sat on a large chair in a room different from the one he used to entertain Dakota yesterday. The old man seemed to be staring at a portrait of a boy whose approximate age was around eight. James looked at him with a look of longing in his eyes. "How is he doing now? Is he still alive somewhere and doing well?" James looked regretful within himself.He imagined again the events that had become his nightmare all this time. Even though it had been a long time, James could never be okay. Another reason why he cared so much about charities targeting orphanages and child welfare was because he remembered his grandson. Even though he knew that his grandson was no longer a child if he was still alive, he still remembered his little figure.Next to James stood Ray, staring at the same portrait. He looked silent, but his gaze held many stories on the figure. He regretted that he could not do anything, and his carelessness in ensuring the safety of the O'Connor family made a big loss to be

Dakota was stunned. He snorted an incredulous laugh, glancing at the ball, and then looked back at them. "You two are acting like children." He got up from her seat. "At your age, you should be aware of how the world works and be able to differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate actions." He noticed them staring at him with indifference. "You should apologize to me." H stood near the ball that had landed beside him as he dodged.The two men looked at each other and laughed. One of them walked over and stood facing him. He was not to be outdone. So, he shows that he is not intimidated by what Dakota is doing. "Apologize?" He frowned. "Shouldn't you be the one apologizing to us?" He raised his hand to point at the sea. "You're the one who threw our balls over there." He stared in annoyance."If we hadn't quickly picked up the ball, it would have been washed away by the waves." His friend, who had thrown the ball at Dakota on purpose, added. He gave Dakota a fierce glance while

"Thank you," Dakota said to a waiter who came to deliver his dinner order.Dakota, who has been busy for the past two months, deliberately took time this week to take a vacation, and he chose an inn near the beach for his summer vacation. Even then, it was not a vacation that was too luxurious, just a vacation that he did without a preliminary plan, which he only decided a few hours before and then left.When he had decided to go on vacation he deliberately arranged everything his self, not even Anna was invited to join him because he really wanted to enjoy quietly on his own time.But it seems his plan didn't entirely work out. Dakota accidentally caught the figure of the woman he had met on the beach. The woman clearly realized that Dakota was sitting at the table, and she deliberately chose the empty chair next to Dakota to sit on."Just here, baby," the woman said to her girlfriend, who was invisible to Dakota because he didn't care what the woman was doing there and who she calle

"What is this? Why is the news like this?" the aunt stared at the screen dumbfounded.The news they prepared and presented to the media to attack Dakota suddenly turned around and attacked them. Moreover, the news exposed their family's confidential matters."It is known that the family of the O'connor family heir's adoptive father before returning to the O'connor family treated the heir with bad manners." The man presenting the news spoke loudly with the news. "They took the money from her father's death insurance without giving any of the money left to Dakota."They were dumbfounded, looking at each other. Not understanding how it could have happened. They had no idea that news about themselves would be exposed to the media. They weren't necessary, so they didn't think the press would target them."How did they find out about that?" They were stunned. Even Dakota didn't know about her adoptive father's insurance, and his will wasn't read in front of her. She hadn't received any supp

"What the hell is Dakota doing to us?" Said the uncle, who was currently on the side of the road not far from Dakota's company.They were all forcibly evicted by the security guards and threatened to be reported to the authorities if they were still there. So, with the people forced to leave, they looked disgruntled and upset."I don't accept what he did to us." The aunt coaxing Dakota with her sweet words now showed her true face. "She can't just kick us out."The people strolling and blocking the other pedestrians seemed to be very indifferent to the other people. They walked and stopped, walked and stopped again without caring.There were three women and two men, but none cared about Dakota.The woman who had blonde hair and looked younger than them looked at her brothers with a similar look on her face. "He can't be allowed. We must teach Dakota a lesson." The woman privatized hi,."Lesson?" The woman who approached Dakota earlier turned his attention to the woman. "What do you me

"Dakota, you're such a joker." The woman, whose face looked shocked a moment ago, now turned soft. She chuckled while patting Dakota's arm.But Dakota had a different expression. He ignored what the woman was doing and just glanced at her with her gaze looking down because they were quite short and too close to her.The woman touched Dakota's hand like she was used to doing that every time she met Dakota. She didn't seem awkward at all, even though to Dakota, what she was doing was a nuisance.The woman's eyes widened, and with her face as friendly as possible, she spoke, "You are very easy to joke with. I can tell that you're a good person." She complimented Dakota, flicking her gaze towards the others, and the men greeted the woman's words with pitched exclamations. "After all, we're the ones who took care of you when you were little. If it wasn't for us, you wouldn't be in this place right now." She spoke with pride."That's right!" The others exclaimed. "We are the family that too

"I told you to let me in!" Snapped the man, Dakota's uncle, while Dakota's status was unknown.Because the news about Dakota circulated across the country and appeared in the newspapers, people who recognized Dakota recognized Dakota's picture, which was only taken briefly because the O'Connor family still guarded his identity.But for people who intersect with her, of course, Dakota's silhouette is so easy for them to recognize. Therefore, the uncle is currently in the leading company owned by the O'Connor family to find Dakota."Sorry, but you can't come in." The guard at the building's main door blocked his uncle Dakota's attempt to break in.Since they were so insistent on getting in, they seemed normal at first. But when asked what their purpose was and if they had made a schedule to meet, the people, instead of answering argued to be allowed to enter.The man with slightly bleached hair near his ears brushed off the guard's hand. "I told you I was his uncle! Didn't you hear me?"

"How could this be Dakota?" The voice of a woman in the crowd on the street, staring at the street billboard that showed an announcement about Dakota.The woman stared wide-eyed at Dakota's appearance, which had changed 180 degrees from the Dakota she once recognized. The woman tightly clenched her hand that held her bag tightly, her eyes did not move from where they were, listening to the news being aired all over the country.She was Gea, the woman who rejected Dakota's love five times because Dakota was just a poor man. Gea used to really dislike Dakota because of Dakota's poor status. She was upset that a poor man like Dakota dared to like someone like her.But now, Gea seemed frustrated to know the truth. "I should have just accepted it back then." She regretted it. "If I was with him, my life wouldn't have been possible like it is today."She grumbled in annoyance, her past suddenly came back into her head, she remembered the figure of Dakota who used to like her but she rejecte

"I heard that there are many guests coming today." A glamorous woman in a dress cut low on the chest spoke to a man before her.The man nodded. "Yes. I saw from the guest list that the guests invited by them are three times more than the guests they usually invite." The classic-looking man responded.Many people dressed in luxurious clothes in the ballroom of the residence occupied by the O'Connor family as one of their leisure homes.They wore hand oes, clothes, and jewelry from world designers with limited items. They seemed to enjoy the party even though the main event had not started.Their conversations varied, ranging from simple greetings by those who rarely met because they had their own busy schedules, talking about business and what was trending among the upper-class people, to talking about their respective lifestyles as show-offs."Almost everyone who comes to this place is critical." In the middle of the party, the other guests were observing the guests.The woman with br

"I got a lot done today." Dakota stretches his shoulders in the spinning chair before the computer screen.A few days ago, James had given him various assignments that suddenly became jobs he had to take care of and learn about.Starting with learning about their family tree, the company run by their family, and the people involved with their family, all Dakota learned because of James' orders to him.James wanted Dakota to know that as a basis, then after he understood it, James made Dakota tour each of their subsidiaries, but Dakota was there to accompany him and look around.For a whole week, Dakota's schedule was packed with things James had in mind after observing him. Dakota still remembers that just when he thought his schedule was over, James said, "It's time to introduce you to the public. You've prepared everything you need to know, and now it's time for you to emerge as the heir of the O'Connor family.""I have prepared the guest list. Mr. James said you need to look at it

"Hands off!" she snapped at the officer loudly. "What are you doing?" he looked panicked and worriedly at Dakota. "Sorry I came late, sir."All of them looked shocked and couldn't believe what they saw, especially the manager and the security guard, who recognized the man with the cane as their senior officer in the mall. The man was the highest leader of their branch mall. He was the managing director.The manager looked nervous. He read the situation and tried to realize what was happening. "Mr. Director, what are you doing here?" he looked confused. "Don't you have an important meeting today? Why can't you?" Those questions came to mind.As he said them one by one, he was like getting the scattered puzzle pieces and being able to put them together clearly, then his face turned anxious and panicked looking at Dakota.He looked at Dakota with a fierce look. "No way, so he owns this mall, like he said? he's not lying?" the man thought to himself.Dakota glanced at him with a slight sn

"Come to the watchdog room section. Some people are giving me a hard time in this place," Dakota said right after their call was connected."You're currently at the mall, sir?" the voice on the other end sounded panicked. Without giving Dakota a chance to answer his question, he spoke again, "Yes, sir, I'll be right there." He ended their phone call. He ended their phone call.Dakota contacted one of the highest-ranking staff in the mall. It was true that Dakota did have the largest share there. But he did not run it and take a position as one of the board of directors there because his work was already too much, and he just wanted to take his profit opportunities.Being an investor for them was much more flexible because he couldn't divide his time while he had a lot of work.As their call ended, the woman looked at him with a laugh. "What are you doing? Who did you call?" She chuckled. She really couldn't believe that Dakota was the one who owned such a big mall.Even being one of t
