I Am Not A Fool Chapter 118
"What happened?" Dakota woke up panting from his sleep. He had just seen something bad in his dream.Dakota turned his head towards the window of his room and saw the sun was still slowly moving up at the other end. He quickly got out of bed and looked for his phone.His finger tapped a contact on his call. "Are you okay, sir, James?" asked Dakota once their call was connected."Yes, I'm fine, Dakota." The voice answered calmly and a little cheerfully.On the other hand, Dakota looked upset. He wasn't calm at all, his face was hardened and slightly sweaty even though it was early morning and the air was still quite cold.He looked out the window again. "Do you have any outside events today?""Yes, I'm going out of town for a few days." The man replied.It was him!Dakota froze in place. "I'll be coming with you, so can it wait until I get there?" He quickly walked towards the bathroom.James was silent momentarily, confused at Dakota's attitude that suddenly sounded frantic and urgent

"Who is he?" The bespectacled man's mind stares towards the entrance as Dakota and James arrive. "Why did he get in with Mr. James? Shouldn't the one accompanying Mr. James be Ray? Where is that man?" he watched them silently.The man sitting on the left side in the tartan-patterned vest stared casually. "Did Mr. James change his servant? But that's not possible. Ray is a servant of great ability, so he has no reason to be replaced unless Ray resigns. But even that is unlikely." He straightened his seat as James was about to arrive."Welcome, sir James. How are you today?" The man who sat closest to him and looked the oldest of all except James greeted him politely and kindly.James took a quick glance at him, then looked away. "Enough with the pleasantries. There are more important things to discuss than asking how I am." He replied curtly.Dakota stood beside James, as someone had already pulled up a chair in the main section for James.James opened the paper report on the table, hi

"Stop talking nonsense. You obviously don't know anything." He gave Dakota a dismissive look.The man disliked Dakota from the start. Ever since Dakota came in, the man had a bad feeling but felt uneasy and agitated.The man's jaw hardened, and he stared at Dakota fixedly. He was not going to be swayed and provoked by Dakota, whom he didn't even know and know the answer to. "Even for the business agreement you are talking about, the divisions and even the leaders of this company already know about it all." he snorted, with the most dismissive look on Dakota's face.He was determined to humiliate Dakota since Dakota made him the topic of conversation. The people sitting there started looking at him with doubtful glances and whispering with the people beside her.They were obviously starting to take issue with it. It was easy to create doubts and waver on trust in a company. Especially the higher-ups who of course have businesses that are not clearly exposed, they have things hidden beh

"You can see." Dakota also thrust the books into the centre of the table, drawing people's attention to him.The people who came to this place with different purposes did the same thing, looking at the book's contents.The man, wearing a tartan-patterned vest, frowned after seeing what had appeared and been written there. He found that some of the data seemed odd to what should have been written there.The man then raised his face to look at the man in black. "What is this? Why is the data written like this?" He looked at the man in surprise.The man who looked the youngest of them snorted with laughter at the sight. "He's obviously playing dirty. How could he do it like this?" The man chuckled, looking at the black-clothed man with narrowed eyes.Dakota lifted his face from the book. From what he heard the young man say, he knew that other forms of cheating were happening within the company."Asshole, does this mean that my job will end here?" The man stared frantically while mutteri

"Isn't he the man my aide told me about?" The man thought to himself as he watched Dakota standing near James. "What is that man doing here with Mr. James? Very suspicious?"Behind Brown's smile at James, he was watching Dakota closely. Recently, he had gotten a report from his aide about a young man who was close to James.Brown recognized the man mentioned as Dakota, but more than that, he did not know about Dakota's status as what was near James. Therefore, he became anxious and suspicious.Dakota glimpsed at him calmly. He listened to the confusion in the man's head, and it helped him to act.Dakota's hand closed as he leaned closer to James' ear. "Sir, there is something else you must do. We must leave immediately, sir." Dakota took the initiative to lead James away from the man.Dakota acted as James' servant again quickly to divert the man's suspicion of him.James was a bit confused. Without taking his eyes off Dakota, he quickly nodded, being sure Dakota must have a reason fo

"Please, sir." Ray opened the car door for Dakota.With his eyes hardly open, Dakota walked with lazy steps into the car. He didn't say much throughout their journey.Occasionally, Dakota closed his eyes while checking out the window to see if they had arrived. But their journey seemed to be quite long. She woke up so early because Ray told him, they would be leaving early tomorrow night.Ray, who was sitting in the front, turned to him. "We're here, sir."Dakota opened his eyes and then looked outside. Only then did he open his car door just before Ray opened his. He looked at the spacious building in front of him."Come with me, sir." Ray escorted Dakota into the shooting range.Behind Ray, Dakota watched the crowded place as they stopped at the receptionist. Ray took out his membership card and showed it to the clerk there.Ray usually practiced at a different place than where the O'Connor family practiced shooting. So he wasn't recognized there, especially since none of the O'Conn

"Who exactly is this man? Why has he been showing up so often with Mr. James lately?" mused a butler standing behind James at the ready.Dakota, who could hear him, couldn't help but look at him, even though he was doing it subtly and casually.He saw the butler, a woman slightly older than Ray, staring straight ahead without budging. The waitress was acting professionally, even though she had questions in her head."Why does this man come so often? But I'm quite happy to see him in this house. These days, since this man is often seen standing around while preparing dinner and breakfast, it feels more pleasant." Dakota almost choked as he heard the voice of the young maid in front of him.James still hadn't told anyone about Dakota except Ray because James himself was conscientious about the fact that Dakota had returned.He shifted his gaze to James, who was staring at him worriedly, their eyes meeting. "Are you okay?" James asked her.The waitress, who had been looking at Dakota, i

"We're not on the same level. I don't want to be lumped together by someone like you." Nicholas looked down at Dakota. He gave him a slight grin. "You're a thief, so you're different from me."Dakota looked at him fiercely. His eyes stared intently at Nick. Nicholas was the man who had interned at the same company as him. But unlike Dakota, Nicholas was a rich kid.So, during his internship, Nicholas, who knew Dakota's status was lower than him, always made it difficult for Dakota with various things that made Dakota tired. Nicholas felt like the boss in the place where they interned.Many times, Nicholas delegated the work that had been divided by their boss to him. He asked Dakota to do his part, too. At that time, Dakota had no choice but to accept his treatment.The reason was, at that time, Dakota was still poor and needed a job, and Nicholas, whose family influenced the boss at their internship, threatened that if Dakota did not do what he ordered, then Dakota would be in troubl
