"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
"You're not someone who knows anything about the business world." Anna gave him a cynical and arrogant look. "You're just a rookie who knows nothing about me and Dakota." She grinned faintly at Nicholas."You..." Nicholas' words trailed off. He stared at Anna intently. His memory seemed to have seen her familiar-looking figure, but he couldn't quite remember.He tried to keep remembering, but no matter how hard Nicholas tried, he couldn't find her in his memory. Nicholas ignored his thoughts and dismissed them as part of his mistake."You're the one who doesn't know who Dakota is." Nicholas folds his arms haughtily. Then, he approached Dakota and looked at him with dangling eyes. "I knew him before you did. He was an ordinary working man. A poor man whose only job is to make money." He snorted at Dakota.What Nicholas said was true. Back then, he was only busy working. Day after day, he only spent doing one job after another.He lived in a flat that was only 5×5 meters, with one bathr
"Oh hey, you." Brown, who accidentally bumped into Dakota, greeted him and signalled for Dakota to come closer to him.Dakota, walking out of the main shopping centre building for some business, glanced at Brown flatly. he didn't want to talk to that person and look familiar to him, but since Brown had called his first, he had no choice but togo to him there.Dakota turned his face in the other direction, hiding his annoyed facial expression from Brown and then came acting like a person of lower status than Brown. After all, Brown recognised his as a servant of James, so he had to stick to his role until James decided it was time to introduce his to the public, and he was quite ready for that."Sir, Brown. Nice to meet you." Dakota imitated Ray's manner.Thanks to frequent interactions with Ray, he knows how to behave as a servant. These days, Dakota spends time with Ray quite often. They go to the shooting range quite often, and lately, Dakota has also been practising judo with Ray
