"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
Dakota heard the sound of feet walking towards him, then about to hit him from behind. Dakota quickly turned around and then made the person fall forward."You're doing a hazardous thing." one of them smirked, walking while overtaking Dakota's path and standing before him.Dakota stopped his steps and then looked at the man flatly. He turned his head in the other direction, then found several of them appeared and surrounded him, making a large circle with a gap that was also quite large because there were only three.Dakota looked at them with a faint smile on his face. They were taking it too lightly. If there were only three of them, Dakota was confident of taking them out, but he planned to show Brown the power of the O'Connor family.So, he still had to wait for his men to arrive to take care of them. he glanced around, then looked annoyed at them. "Ah, why would they send such lousy people to do this work? Did they intend to fail from the start?" he gave them a condescending look
"What did he do?" Brown seemed to be sitting in his place calmly, but right now, his mind was elsewhere. "Why is he overreacting to a new servant?"Brown drummed his fingers on the hand of the wooden table. He was thinking hard about who Dakota was.Ever since he accidentally met James and Dakota, he had been watching Dakota, who he knew to be James' new maid. Several times, he had gotten word from his men who were staking out James' residence that Dakota had been seen going in and out of the house repeatedly and then had also been seen going out with Ray.At first, he did not suspect the man's status, but because of today's events and why James had called him in anger. It made Brown sure of something.He twitched his mouth in complaint as his gaze stared unfocused at the corner of his room. "Maybe he's not a waitress like I thought. There's something they're hiding." Brown turned his gaze to the aide standing guard nearby.He raised his hand. Then, he moved his index finger to beckon
"Do you want to know about my situation I said I couldn't tell you about before?" Dakota sat on James' right side.After last night's incident at the boxing gym, Dakota kept thinking he needed help. He needed to find out what was going on with him. Before, he couldn't trust anyone to ask for help, but now he had someone he could rely on.So Dakota decides to get someone else involved to find the answers she's been looking for all along about what his body is going through.James looked at his intently. He placed his teacup on a small saucer. "If you're still not ready to tell me, I won't push. After all, I already know everything about your past life." James looked calm. He handled it like a wise man.Dakota pulled himself up, who had been leaning towards James. His eyebrows twitched at the realisation. "Ah, that means you know that I had an accident?"There was no one else in that place except for Dakota and James, even Ray, who had been there. Dakota asked to leave them because ther
"Close your eyes and think about something that activates your emotions and makes you think, sir." One of the scientists prepared by James at Dakota's request.They are in one of the labs owned by James' company, and the scientists are examining Dakota's brain waves.During the examination, the scientists found nothing strange about Dakota's brain waves. But Dakota, indeed, has different brain waves than most humans."This is unexpected," James muttered outside the glass room where Dakota was lying and being examined.He recalled the incident where Dakota saved him. That day, he was in so much pain that he almost lost consciousness if Dakota hadn't knocked hard on his window and made him keep his consciousness.Vaguely, amid his pain and Dakota's words saying that his condition was getting critical, James then felt his body slowly feel light. He opened his heavy eyelids and was enveloped in intense drowsiness. Then, he saw Dakota's face, which looked faint because the glare of the day
"I've obviously ordered you to seal off all access, haven't I!" Brown snapped at his subordinates lined up in front of him.The well-built men looked down at the floor, avoiding Brown's piercing gaze. Brown's tirade of exasperation had come about because of their careless behaviour, one of them had opened a registered phone access, and that had provoked James, who had first checked the profiles of all Brown's trusted employees.With Ray's ability to work quickly with the various people he had instructed to get Brown's whereabouts, James and Dakota finally found the spot where Brown was hiding.James' face was flushed, he crumpled up the rolled-up magazine in his hand, then he hit the magazine with a strong swing of his hand at his subordinates.He targeted their heads to hit. The sound of the blow was loud, and the placement was a bit pathetic. "You idiot!" He snapped at the man who was trying to stay upright despite being hit in the face repeatedly with a strong push that made his bo
