"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

"Ah, you're quite agile, apparently." Dakota smiled at him. He looked at Brown with a friendly look, but in Dakota's mind, he had imagined many ways he would use to deal with Brown when he finally found Brown's hiding place.Getting up from his seat, Dakota walked over to the shelf where Brown had placed his wine. Dakota's eyes swept over the wines casually one by one and looked calmly at the rows of wines that made her smile.Krug Wine 1928, Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon 1941, and Penfolds Grange Hermitage 1951 are there. The wine, with a price of tens of thousands of dollars, was perched sweetly there, maybe Brown thought that he could celebrate something there, not knowing that he would be caught by him.Dakota moved his hand to take a bottle of Penfolds Grange Hermitage 1951 from the shelf, making Brown, who was filled with tension, open his eyes wide, glaring at what Dakota did to his favorite wine collection. He had purposely never tasted and opened the bottle because he was savi

"I've finished it, sir." Ray approached Dakota not long after his business inside was done.Dakota turned to him from inside the helicopter, where she was currently sitting. Dakota's appearance looked a little dirty because the shirt he was wearing was splashed by the wine stains he spilled.Ray realized that and gave Dakota his handkerchief to wipe her hands. "Here, sir." Ray sat right in front of Dakota after passing the handkerchief he took from under his suit.Dakota took the handkerchief and wiped his red hand from touching the wine glass earlier."How is she?" Dakota lifted his gaze from looking at his hands and turned to Ray.When Ray entered, Brown was still alive while the maid was lying lifeless on the floor. Ray could still hear Brown moaning, so without waiting, Ray pointed his gun at Brown and shot him in the vitals."He's dead, sir," Ray reported Brown's final condition before he left the room.Dakota appeared to smile faintly. "Then what are you going to do to cover it

"Hey, wait a minute!" The woman blocks Dakota's path, she stands in front of her then stares at Dakota with exist because Dakota's body is taller than her, obviously much taller because she can only stare at Dakota's chest.Dakota lowered his head and looked at the woman distractedly. His eyes hung with a cold stare with a flat face. The woman seemed to swallow the water in her throat as she looked into Dakota's eyes.She tried to brace herself to keep talking to Dakota. "I can't owe someone a favour, so let me do something to repay what you did for me today, please." The woman clasped her hands in front of Dakota, from that close distance her heart beating rather noisily was audible to Dakota. She felt that her ears were getting sensitive.So far, he had only heard other people's thoughts, and even then, at a reasonably close distance. He never thought that she could also listen to the body's response at a close distance. Although the sound of a person's heart could be heard clearly

"You've been watching me eat since before." Dakota put down his spoon, and he was done with his medium well steak.His hand touches the napkin beside his plate, then wipes his lips, sticky with oil. Melani watched him, her eyes focused on Dakota, who looked very annoying because he looked comfortable in that place and used to it.She did intend to treat Dakota, but she didn't expect that Dakota would choose such an expensive place. Melani sighed wearily, after all this was her choice, she was the one who insisted it wasn't Dakota's fault that she wanted to eat there.Melani twisted her fork and spoon. She didn't enjoy her food much as she realized that her month's salary would only pay for one dinner.She laughed bitterly silently. "I'm just seeing if you enjoy it or not." He made an excuse.Dakota snorts a laugh, mocking her. But Melani obviously didn't see it because she looked down. Dakota averted her eyes from Melani and then sipped her wine. "Are you sure?" He asked that in a lig

"Why is this place always crowded?" Dakota muttered. He sat on one of the long benches on the mall's first floor, observing the people crowded there while enjoying the Vienna coffee he had just brought from the coffee shop.He had nothing to do today, but it was too boring just relaxing at home, because when at home she couldn't rest. He must have been doing something with his computer, tinkering with something there and ended up watching the stocks again.Dakota took a sip of his coffee and cast his eyes around. As his eyes spotted a bag shop, he accidentally stared at a woman. Their eyes met glances, but unlike Dakota, the woman's reaction differed."Hey! What are you looking at?" The woman screamed as if she had been harassed.Dakota was dumbfounded. He didn't feel like he had done anything, that the woman could take offence to his words. She stared at those who approached her.The big man with tanned skin looked intimidating. He stood in front of Dakota with a sinister look on his

Dakota let out a long breath. It had been a long few days for her. "I've been really unlucky lately because I keep running into strange women." She then glanced at the woman, 'and ended up meeting unlucky women like her." He quipped at the woman in front of him, who seemed to be staring at him intently and looked very annoyed.Last night, at least, could still be counted as an incident. Melani was annoying because of her high ego, and she didn't want her pride to be hurt because of someone's favour, but she did not think about other people who didn't want to prolong the problem and just wanted to go home. She was also a typical woman who only thought about herself. But at least Melani is still on the side that Dakota can understand.Melani tries to protect herself, who has an inferior nature. She makes a high fortress for herself and does not allow other people to help her just like that because she feels like one day it will be brought up. She thinks that she doesn't deserve help tha

"Now explain what exactly happened? What caused the commotion between you?" asked the man who was the security guard there.With a large posture, the officer took Dakota along with the two other people involved in the problem with him. The three of them were taken to one of the rooms in the building, which was used as a room to monitor the security situation of the mall.Dakota sat in one of the chairs in front of the desk of the man on duty, next to him sat the man who was the woman's boyfriend. The woman had slightly raised his seat. He was getting ready to tell a story, judging from the enthusiastic look on her face. "That guy." He pointed at Dakota. "He was a stalker. He watched me with his dirty gaze. I went after him for it, but he wouldn't admit his mistake and made a scene." He explained.Hearing his explanation, Dakota rolled his eyes because the woman's words were a complete lie. The woman was obviously delusional about it because he never did what she accused him of, not ev

"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
