"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
[You get daily points totaling 150 points]The daily point receipt report appears on the screen in front of William as soon as he wakes up.[The system gave you a point bonus of 50 points for liking the classy way you handled the enemy][Your current points are 1550 points]"What exactly are the skills that can be exchanged for these points? Can I see them?"The screen in front of William that had been showing the points report changed to a list of skills that could be redeemed. There were options; body strength, balance ability, mind reading, poison immunity. However, those abilities were still locked because William didn't have enough points.[This is an example of the best ability you can exchange for points at your current level]"I don't remember you ever saying anything about levels."[There are several levels in using this system; beginner level, Intermediate level, Advanced level, hero level, superhuman level. And right now, your level is still at the beginner level. The more
"You've seen Mr. William Smith's face, he looks very young. It's true that many young people are good at business, but he doesn't look like an intelligent person. I saw him in the lobby when he first arrived, but he looked very surprised. I even heard from one of his secretaries that he doesn't even know how to sign documents properly," explained a male employee who was washing his hands at the sink.Another employee beside him replied. "Yeah, she said that he doesn't know how to turn on a computer either. Gosh, is it because he was born rich that when he wants to turn on the computer, a servant does it for him?"The first man laughed mockingly. "Rich people usually have a good education, but he seems to be too lazy. But you know, right, there's no difference between lazy and stupid people."The two men who had finished washing their hands laughed. One of them said, "What will become of this company if it's led by an incompetent person like him.""Maybe we should look for another comp
People walked quickly into the Emerald Corp building because they didn't want to be late. Andre looked up at the tall building with a big smile. He had come to the company just to try his luck. Little did he know that there he would meet William who promised to give him a job. He walked into the building with a smile on his face, then made his way to the receptionist since he couldn't pass through the flap barrier gate without a card."Good morning, can I help you?" the receptionist asked.Andre tapped his fingers on the reception desk and raised one eyebrow, giving him a haughty look. "I'm Andre Bellard. I'd like to see William Smith because I have an appointment." He moved his face forward and covered the side of his mouth and whispered, "I'm his friend."The receptionist looked at Andre with a forced smile. She certainly wouldn't believe that William had a friend like Andre. The shirt Andre was wearing was worn out and from a cheap brand. How could a big company owner be friends wi
William gulped as he gazed in awe at the interior of his private jet. He had never even been on a commercial airplane. This was his first time on a plane.William was born in Bergin City, and the furthest place he had ever been was New Eden City, where he now lives. It was a two-hour subway ride from Bergin City to News Eden City.At that time, William sat in a seat on one of the decks right next to the airplane window. He fastened his seatbelt as instructed by the cabin attendant before the plane took off. His hands clung tightly to the soft seat cushion as he tensed up after hearing the pilot's announcement that the plane departing from Edenshire International Airport for Crimson Land International Airport was about to take off. According to the information, the air journey would last for six hours without transit."The trip to White Island is quite long, about six hours. Are you sure you want to start working as soon as you get there?" asked Noah.William, who was tense as the plan
Tom opened his eyes wide to stare at the man who had just walked into the meeting room. He shook his head, unable to believe his vision. He turned to Selena who was also looking at him. The man who had just come in was the same William who had caught him cheating on Selena in a cramped old apartment bed. It was impossible."Wait a minute, why are you here?" Tom stood up and asked William in a loud voice. "This place is not a place that someone like you can enter."The meeting participants looked at Tom in astonishment because they knew that the man standing before them was the William Smith they wanted to work with.Gregori, who couldn't accept his master being insulted, jumped to his defense, "Who do you think you're talking to? He's Mr. William Smith who will be judging your presentations in person and will choose who gets to partner with Emerald Corp."Tom was frozen in place, wishing someone could snap him out of his stupid dream. How could that poor man be the owner of Emerald Co
