Ronald, who was not far from the scene of the dispute, approached William and Andre. "Why are you fighting here? Don't you realize that you're ruining the image of this restaurant?"
Andre immediately bowed to Ronalad. "I'm sorry, Sir. I only reprimanded William because a customer complained about his service. It seems like he had some problems with his girlfriend, so he wasn't really concentrating on his work. Maybe he should just take a break, let me do his work."Everything Andre said was a lie, but Ronald seemed to believe it."He's not telling me that, Sir. He lied." William defended himself because he didn't want Ronald's judgment to be bad for him."No need to defend yourself, William. I have already reprimanded you. Look, once you make trouble today, I will fire you on the spot. You should be grateful that I kept you here. Instead of behaving yourself, you have the nerve to lie to me. You called earlier that you couldn't come to work because you were sick, but it turns out you just had a problem with your girlfriend."William looked down at Ronald's words. This wasn't fair. In fact, it was Andre who had been provoking him all this time. Why was he the one being scolded."Now hurry up and deliver the order at table 10. They've been waiting since earlier because you're working so slowly!" Ronald ordered William."Yes, sir."William brought a tray with two empty glasses and a bottle of wine to the table mentioned by Ronald. He had to be careful now because after all he needed a job to continue his life. He would work hard and become rich so that Selena would regret leaving him. Although it was impossible for him to beat Tom's wealth, he was a son of a rich businessman..William's eyes widened and his chest rumbled when he saw the two people at the table he was about to serve. Tom, who was sitting opposite Selena, took Selena's hand and kissed it. The tray William was holding fell over and made everyone in the restaurant look at him. Shattered glass was everywhere and the wine whose bottle had broken splashed on Selena's dress."Oh my, my expensive dress!" squealed Selena as she stood up and looked at William.Tom also stood up and moved to see the state of Selena's cream-colored dress which was reddish from the wine.Tomlooked at William. "Do you know how much this dress costs? Even if you sold your heart, you wouldn't be able to afford it."William was so angry that his hair was on fire. But, he realized his position as a servant. "I apologize."Selena looked at her hands in front of her chest. "Apologize? You think by apologizing, my dress will be clean again?""I can't believe this restaurant employs someone as incompetent as him," Tom said. "And I can't believe you lived with him. How could you stand staring at his ugly face every day, Darling?"Selena rolled her eyes. "I lost my appetite looking at his face. I didn't even know someone like him could work in this expensive restaurant."William didn't understand why Selena was insulting him now. Just because she had a new rich boyfriend didn't mean that the year they had spent together was gone, right?Tom took Selena's hand. "Come on, darling, we'd better find a place to eat where the waiter is better than this place.""Customer, I apologize for the negligence of my staff. Don't leave yet. As an apology, I will ask another waiter to reserve our VIP room for you," Ronald said, trying to hold Selena and Tom back."No need, if I want to eat in the VIP room of this restaurant, I already did. I don't want to eat in a restaurant that doesn't know how to choose waiters," Tom refused.Selena grabbed Tom's arm. "Come on, Darling. I'm going to throw up when I see that trashy man's face."William's chest thundered at Selena's words. The man she called trash had once made her life."Follow me!" Ronald commanded William, then quickly stepped from the dine-in room.When they were in the kitchen, where there were only restaurant employees, Ronald immediately slapped William."You bastard! Not only did you break an expensive wine, you also made this restaurant lose a potential customer."William stood straight on the spot. He just clenched his jaw to stifle the sting on his cheeks."Look, that wine cost $20,000. You think a poor guy like you can replace it?""I'm sorry, Sir. I won't do it again. I'll try to pay for it with my salary.""You think this is a charity foundation? I don't want to know, tomorrow you have to bring the money. Otherwise, I will report you to the police. Also, starting tonight you are no longer a waiter in this restaurant. You can only make a loss.""No, sir. How can I pay the compensation if I'm fired.""I don't care how you do it. This place is only for competent people, not useless people like you." Ronald called out to Steve who was there with a hand code. "Drag him out of here. I don't want to see his face anymore."Steve happily grabbed William's arm. Andre, who didn't want to lose the opportunity to get rid of William, accompanied Steve. The two men dragged William from the kitchen and out towards the garbage dump. They pushed William until he fell next to the garbage."Trash like you belongs here," said Andre.Steve laughed, then spat and hit William's hand. "Get out of here! You stink like a rat."Being dumped by Selena and losing his job didn't seem to be enough to subvert William, now when he arrived at the front of the apartment, his belongings were already outside. And Carol, the owner of the apartment, was standing waiting for him."I've been waiting for two weeks, but you haven't paid the rent. I've been patient enough, but this is the limit. Pay now or get out of here!""Didn't Selena already pay it? She said she paid this month's rent."So far, William had always paid the rent directly to Carol. However, before going on vacation, Selena asked for the rent and said that she would pay it to Carol."You think I'd wait like a fool if Selena had already paid it? Hurry up and pay the rent or get out of here right now.""Carol, just give me a break this month. I really don't have the money.""No leniency. I need money too, there are still many people who want to rent this apartment. Give me the key?"Reluctantly, William handed over the key to the apartment to Carol. After Carol left, he sat down among his clothes that were scattered on the floor. She checked her cell phone which suddenly rang.[A system will be installed. Did you receive it?]Thinking that his cell phone system was requesting an update, William agreed to it. However, after he approved the installation of the system a bright light suddenly appeared. When he opened his eyes, he was in a room made of holograms.[Welcome to the Limitless Destiny system]William circulated his gaze to see the details of the holographic room, while searching for the source of the voice that had just greeted him. He had no idea what was happening and how he came to be in the fund. He pinched his face."Ouch, that hurts!" he whimpered softly.He wasn't dreaming.[Congratulations, you have been selected as the owner of the Limitless Destiny system. In this system you will be asked to choose the destiny you wish to live]William's brow furrowed, turning his body to look for the person who spoke. "Who are you?"[I am the admin who will connect you as a Host with the Limitless Destiny system]"I don't understand. Why exactly am I here? Return me to my place!" William shouted.[As I explained earlier, you are currently the chosen one to be the owner of the Limitless Destiny system. By owning this system you can become anyone you want, unlimited by role, name, country, and more]William raised one of his eyebrow. He was starting to get curious about the system
William continued his pace, looking right and left at the shops he passed. There might be a shop that needed workers, so he could apply. It didn't matter what kind of job it was, as long as he could earn money to survive.After walking for a while, William arrived at the electronics store where he worked before. He thought that it was possible that the store hadn't found a replacement for him yet. Some of the store's customers looked disgustedly at William, they turned up their noses and quickly walked away."Gosh, what the hell is that? What would a poor person like him come to this electronics store for? It looks like he can't even buy food.""When did he leave here? He's disgusting!"The store's customers began to comment because they were uncomfortable with the arrival of William who looked so bad and had wet clothes. Despite knowing that the shop customers were uncomfortable, William was forced to endure the stares because he had to meet the shop owner."What did you come here fo
William was still wearing his white bathrobe when he came out to the pool. He swallowed when he saw Noah wearing a two piece bikini with a tiger print lying on a sun lounger. He stared at Noah starting from her long legs. Her thighs formed fine lines on each side which were her muscle lines. The small piercings in her navel, then up to her cleavage were clearly visible. He still couldn't believe that a woman as beautiful as a Greek goddess was his girlfriend.Noah, who noticed William's arrival, raised her sunglasses to her head. Her long flowing hair was brought to her left shoulder, then smiled while waving to William."Babe, why are you standing there? Come here! Didn't you say you wanted to swim with me?" called Noah.Although still nervous, William walked over to Noah. He could clearly hear his rapid heartbeat, especially when he started sitting near Noah.Noah shook his head looking at William. "You're not going swimming in that bathrobe, are you, Babe?"William didn't answer, h
The charity event organized that night was an auction of some famous items. Based on the theme, every invitee wore a mask because after the auction, there would be a masquerade ball. William stood in front of the mirror in his walk-in closet. He stared at his reflection in awe, as if he didn't recognize himself.William is wearing a white tuxedo and black pants. A black bow tie was around his neck. His side-parted hair looked shiny. His firm jaw was more prominent, as was his chin that was parted in the middle. He turned his head after seeing Noah's reflection behind him. And he could only remain silent as he looked at Noah who was wearing a long rose gold dress with a low-cut cleavage that was parted at the sides up to her thighs. Her long hair was in a bun and a few curly locks were left loose to accompany her bangs.Noah tucked her hair behind her ear. "What do you think?""Beautiful. Very pretty. I've never seen a woman more beautiful than you," William complimented.Noah blinked
"Ladies and gentlemen who have participated in the auction, we thank you. All the money raised tonight will be donated entirely to those in need. We'll see you next year at an even bigger event," said the host. "Please move to the ball room we have prepared next door. Enjoy the real party."The invited guests applauded briefly, then some began to stand up as they were about to move to the larger venue where the evening's party would continue. Aside from having fun and reuniting with old acquaintances, the party was also meant to develop connections among business people. That was exactly what Tom was going to do.Tom had been trying to locate William's whereabouts. He had to get a chance to make a connection with the owner of Emerald Corp. If he managed to approach him and get a contract, his father would be proud of him. He would also get the support of the shareholders to be trusted as his father's successor as CEO of their company.Selena grabbed Tom's arm as he stood up. She notic
"You're in a really good mood today," said Noah, grabbing William's arm as they walked towards the ballroom.William's brow furrowed, though a slight smile played on his lips. "Oh yeah? Probably because you're so pretty today."Noah rested her head on William's shoulder and smiled so broadly that her rabbit-like teeth showed. "I always love your sweet talk."William's smile widened, not only because of Noah's words, but also because he remembered Tom complimenting him. He couldn't imagine how Tom and Selena would react once he took off his mask."This is the first time I've been to a party like this in person," William said once they were at the door of the ballroom and a waiter opened the door for them."It's just a party of pleasantries where people compete to make connections with influential people in the country," Noah explained. "We just need to respond to them with a smile. Usually people who are too friendly are just sycophants who come when they need to."William turned to Noa
"Mr. William Smith, we meet again," Tom said, reaching out to shake hands with William.William just stared at Tom's hand, then smiled. After his hand hung without reply, Tom withdrew it again and forced a smile. Inwardly he was very annoyed with William, but he still tried to be friendly because he needed him."I heard that this year is your first time participating in this charity event. So am I, so I'm still a little confused," Tom said, showing enthusiasm in his voice.William just nodded slowly, showing no interest at all in Tom's words."Oh right, Miss Alexander. I'm the director of operations at MnF company, you were once our company's model. Maybe you forgot, but we used to have lunch together." Tom exaggerated to Noah because he felt that William was not that interested in him.Noah shook her head slightly, then said, "Oh, really? It seems that I modeled for MnF's sofa products, but sorry, I don't remember you at all."Although Tom was wearing a mask, Noah actually still reme
"Why are you bringing up that poor ex-boyfriend of yours, huh? You're just ruining Mr. William Smith's mood. I need to get close to William Smith to get my company's proposal approved. Don't you know how valuable a partnership with Emerald Corp is?" Tom scolded Selena."Why are you scolding me? I'm just saying the usual things and William Smith doesn't seem to be angry," Selena retorted, then hissed softly, "Damn, when I say his name I just remember poor William's face."Tom pointed his index finger at Selena. "Stop saying nonsense. You think William Smith, who is the owner of a company as big as Emerald Corp is happy to be compared to a poor servant? It's hard to change the mindset of lower-class people like you."Selena's throat tightened at Tom's words. She knew that before she met Tom, she was just a poor woman who lived by relying on lower-class men. However, she didn't think that Tom could insult her like that.Tom brought his lips to Selena's ear. "Look, you wouldn't be standin
After the vacation at the castle ended, William brought Noah and Micah back to stay at the mansion. Upon returning from there, Noah felt that all her memories were impossible. She felt that she had never met William before. So she just felt that the memories were fake. Although in her mind, Noah already felt comfortable with William. He was very warm and responsible. Even Noah was always cared for without being restrained. Noah, who had resumed her activities as a model, began to occupy herself with her world. She didn't want to get lost in her uncertain feelings. She was happy to see Micah actively playing and occasionally missed William when he was out of town on business. However, Noah tries to suppress her feelings. Being a model and brand ambassador gave her a little distraction from her feelings.A hundred days had passed, but Noah decided not to accept William, even though she was secretly in love with the man. She just didn't want to become William's past. Even though William
Noah continued to think about William's offer after returning to her hotel. She felt that William's story didn't make sense. How could he die and come back to life in the same body. However, when she said goodbye earlier, Micah cried to keep her from leaving. At that moment, Noah's heart was touched and she was a little convinced. "Is it true what William said?" Noah was confused alone in her hotel room. Not long after, her cell phone rang and it was a call from the agency. Noah lazily answered the call. The voice on the other end was shouting and wanted Noah to come back from her vacation quickly. "Hurry back and work again Noah! I allowed you only two days of vacation, but it's been more than two days!""I'm just exercising my right," Noah said."Don't mess with me, Noah. Who would you be if it wasn't for the agency that raised you? You think you can make it to the top of popularity like this on your own!"Noah hung up and threw the phone away. She began to rethink William's offer
Noah has been having nightmares again, lately if she has a lot of thoughts or is too tired she always has nightmares. Noah often wakes up in the middle of the night because of her dreams. A murder against her. Noah was always frightened and couldn't sleep anymore if she just had the dream. Noah would spend her time waiting for the morning by opening her bedroom window and looking at the view of the city with the flickering lights decorating it.Noah actually wanted to go to the doctor to consult her dreams, but she didn't have much time. Her manager was always giving her endless work. She was like a cash cow for the agency, but she still couldn't rebel. She doesn't have enough courage to rebel. Because it was the agency that made her the super model she is today. Returning the favor is like a mantra that binds Noah to her agency.The cell phone rang from the nightstand, Noah glanced at the flat object and just let it flicker. She didn't move from the side
"I'm sorry I took up your time," Noah said as she faced William."No problem. I don't have any work today. Just checking the employees' work.""That's good, so I don't feel too guilty.""Never mind. Whenever you need me, just call. I'll come," William said.Noah nodded, she flashed her sweet smile and William responded in kind. They talked about many things, not about work or personalities but about general things that happened. Noah didn't talk about the incident in the park, nor her problem with Mr. Samael who asked her to be the lead in the movie that the producer was going to work on.William told her more about the tourist destinations he knew. All the places William mentioned were places he had been to with Noah. He wanted to know the reaction of the woman in front of him when he heard about those beautiful places. However, Noah just didn't move. She just listened as William told the story, her face was flat. "Have you bee
"Aaargh! Let go! Please don't hurt me!" Noah begged while continuing to curl up in pain. Her legs and hands were tied and the man, whose face was unclear, approached her with a crowbar. Noah struggled with a pleading look in her eyes, shaking her head and asking the man in front of her not to hit her. Unfortunately, the crowbar flew at Noah's head. The woman let out a long scream. Noah was breathing heavily, she was in her own room. Her head felt dizzy with her heart racing. Noah looked around, it was her room then she grabbed the glass of water on the nightstand. She gulped it down, the dream just now really drained her strength. She took a deep breath to normalize her heartbeat."It was just a dream," Noah muttered. She rubbed her face lightly, sweat soaking her face and body. Even though the air conditioning was at its maximum, Noah was still sweating. She looked at the clock on the wall, it was already 4am. She went to the window and opened the curtains. There was a marvelous vi
Noah's screams made William immediately run to the set. Flames were splashing from one of the flash lights mounted in the corner. He saw Noah look down in fear as the flames from the lamp almost hit her. William hurriedly took off his suit and covered Noah's head with it. He then carried Noah out of the room. Noah was almost killed if William didn't move quickly. Mr. Ramos approached the two and apologized for Noah's accident. The woman was still in shock and just nodded. Then Mr. Ramos excused himself to see the condition of the filming site. William took Noah away and sat her on the sofa he had been sitting on with Mr. Ramos. He saw Noah's face pale, the woman in front of him was really scared."Are you okay?" asked William."I'm very scared," Noah said."Calm down. It was just an accident, now you're safe, Noah.""Thank you, Will. I don't know what would have happened to me without you.""No problem. I also had a meeting with Mr. Ramos earlier. So I came here," William lied a litt
Noah tipped her hat as the wind picked up. Her flowing hair was a little messy because she had long hair. Not all of her hair was covered by the hat, making it difficult for Noah. She held her hat and hair with both hands. Her gaze lowered, not knowing that someone was nearby. Noah was surprised when the person cleared his throat, scaring her. She was about to move from her seat but someone sitting not far from her pulled out a pocket knife from his pocket, Noah widened her eyes and shook her head slowly."Where are you going, Miss?" The person played with the switchblade in front of Noah. The woman looked around the park, it was quiet. She didn't realize that twilight had passed and turned dim. The park was deserted, there were probably a few people still in the park. Mostly lovers who were busy with their own intimacy. The distance between Noah and the couple was also quite far. Maybe if she screamed, people would ignore her. People would think that Noah was fighting with her boyfri
"Good morning," greeted William as he approached Noah. He was taking a walk in the park. Little did he know that Noah was already there promoting the new summer edition of the drink. She was doing a photo shoot for this season's cooking magazine. William smiled, while a look of surprise was evident on Noah's face."Hi, why are you here?" Noah asked."Looking for some fresh air," William said."Heem, it's fresh here in the morning. I deliberately chose the morning time when I was offered a photo shoot for this summer drink.""Yes. I like the morning atmosphere here too. The sun is brighter this summer.""You're right," Noah agreed. They engaged in small talk that morning. William deliberately waited for Noah to finish the photo shoot. Then they went for a walk not far from the park. A classic coffee shop with a European feel became their choice to chat. Noah deliberately chose a seat close to the window. From her place, she could see the yellowing maple leaves. The streets were also st
Noah, who got a lot of surprises that day, found out that it was all from William. She wanted to return a set of jewelry that William had given her, but her manager forbade it. After Noah thought about it, it was better for her to keep the jewelry to appreciate William. After all, William was not like those businessmen who liked to look down on models like her."Great performance," William said, clapping his hands as he met Noah in her office."Thank you. You're not home yet?" Noah asked conversationally."Waiting for you. How about I drop you off?" William offered. However, Noah politely declined. She said she would go to her agency's office first before going home. A disappointed William excused himself, a look of sadness and disappointment on his face and in his eyes. This made Noah feel guilty. However, she also didn't want to give William hope. Her heart is still closed to William.The man with thick eyebrows and blue eyes drove his car to his mansion. He had done a lot for Noah,
