Steve Hart was lost in thought behind the wheel of his car, grappling with a sour mood and confusion about where to go after being kicked out of his wife's family home.After a prolonged reverie, he suddenly recalled the business card Austin had given him. According to Austin, Steve could seek help by visiting the address listed on the card."Perhaps Austin can assist me in finding a new house to live. I should pay him a visit," murmured Steve, realizing it will be very difficult for him to find a suitable home in the city.Indeed, there is still his mother's house that he can live in. However, his mother's house was in a remote area and very far from the city center. That would make it difficult for him if he wanted to do something important in the city center in the future.Steve Hart immediately drove his car in the direction of Austin Halbert's house, he intended to come there in the hope that Austin Halbert had a way out or at least good advice for him.It didn't take long until
Despite Steve Hart's apology, the employee still seemed unsatisfied and wanted more than just an apology.Steve Hart could see this, as everything could be seen from how badly the employee looked at him."Excuse me, can I have a look at this miniature building again?" asked Steve Hart, as the employee continued to try and prevent him from seeing the miniature building that had caught his eye.The employee looked Steve up and down appraisingly, and after a while, he finally said, "Sorry, sir. Can you just leave from here?"Steve Hart raised his eyebrows, he didn't understand why the employee suddenly asked him to leave."Why?" asked Steve Hart."No, it's just that your presence disturbs us, the people who are working here," said the employee. After seeing Steve Hart's appearance, he was sure that Steve Hart would not be able to buy a house from the property company where he worked.The property company was indeed the best in Avebury town. As such, all the properties they sold were high
Aria Hall, the owner of the property company and Helena's friend, immediately called the employee in question into her presence.The employee timidly approached Aria, knowing that she would get angry because she had offended the acquaintance of her boss's best friend."Tell me what happened and why you did this?" Aria Hall asked the employee.The employee hesitantly said, "I- I did this because I thought he wouldn't be able to afford a house here, Miss Aria."Aria Hall raised her eyebrows, "Tell me why did you think so?"The employee pointed at Steve Hart with his finger, "His- his appearance, Miss Aria. The reason I did that was because of his looks."Aria Hall tapped her forehead, she didn't expect her employee to try to drive away a customer over such a trivial matter."Didn't I tell you not to discriminate against customers?" asked Aria, she remembered that she had often reminded each of her employees in this regard.The employee in front of Aria was silent, he could not deny beca
After finishing taking care of her employees, Aria Hall approached Steve Hart with a regretful expression. She was embarrassed that Steve Hart had to experience such an unpleasant incident at his property company.Aria Hall had often heard about Steve Hart from Helena. Which, from every story, Aria knows that Steve is not an ordinary person.Because of this, Aria didn't want Steve Hart to look bad at her let alone hold a grudge. That's what made Aria not hesitate to fire her employees who had dared to offend Steve Hart, even though it meant that her company could not operate as usual for a while, Aria considered it worth the effort to make Steve happy."Mr. Steve, I feel ashamed that you have to have a bad experience in my company," said Aria Hall regretfully.Steve Hart just smiled slightly, he didn't think much of it because he was used to being treated like before, " Oh, just pretend this never happened to me, Miss. You're not wrong anyway. I can't bring myself to blame an innocent
The old man's screams immediately made the surrounding pedestrians gather. Steve Hart eventually had to get out of the car to check if the old man had really been hit by his car."Arghhh, you bastard. How can you drive so fast when an old man like me is crossing?!" the old man who had been lying on the road for who knows how long, rolled to and fro as he grimaced in pain.Steve Hart didn't understand what the old man was saying, he was sure he had been driving slowly enough that there was no way he would have knocked the old man down even if he had been hit."What are you saying? Stop pretending to be in pain when you're not even hurt," Steve Hart said, annoyed that the old man continued to grimace even when there was no injury at all on his body."What did you say? You hit me and now you're accusing me of faking it?" The old man didn't accept, he winced even more from the pain of the injury that never existed.Because the old man's cries of pain really sounded so convincing, quite a
Steve Hart, who was convinced that the police and the old man accusing him were working together, immediately thought of a way to fight back."Hey, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pay the compensation!" exclaimed the old man with a smirk on his face.The old man was confident that he had won and would soon receive the compensation he demanded, he had done this several times and most victims would surrender after the police got involved.Steve Hart noticed the old man's winning smile. This made Steve Hart even more determined not to let the old man get his way."Sir, this asshole is still trying to refuse to give me the money," said the old man, he chose to complain to the police so that the police, who were his colleagues, began to move to help him.The policeman understood the old man's point so he quickly did his part, "Hey, don't be stubborn and just pay up. You're too young, it's a shame if you have to go to jail just because you refuse to pay the compensation."Receiving p
Helena Halbert and Aria Hall had just arrived at Belvoir Mansion when they realized Steve wasn't coming with them. This made them wonder where Steve Hart was that he hadn't gotten there yet."Helena, please calling Mr. Steve. I'm afraid he left on his way," said Aria Hall.Helena Halbert immediately did as Aria asked. However, Steve didn't pick up his phone at all.Helena Halbert shook her head slowly as she said, " I called him but my phone wasn't picked up."Aria Hall shook her head, both confused and worried. Aria Hall realized it would be her fault if Steve lost track of her on the way, so she decided to go back to the original location hoping to meet Steve on the way." Let's go look for him, I'm afraid Mr. Steve lost track of us so we don't find this place," said Aria Hall."Can't find this place? Didn't you also tell him the address of Belvoir Mansion?" Helena Halbert raised her eyebrows, thinking Steve was just running errands and would have gotten there anyway if they had wai
Walter, who tried to tell Steve to leave while Steve decided to stay because of the mission, made Walter's initial friendly demeanor disappear.Walter thought Steve Hart was ignorant of the situation, a bully, and stubborn for deciding to ignore his words.Steve Hart noticed the change in Walter's expression and asked, "What’s wrong?"Walter crinkled the corners of his eyes a few times, annoyed that Steve seemed to feel no guilt even after interrupting his time."Mr. Steve, your presence here is interfering with my work. Do you even realize that?" asked Walter trying to maintain his friendliness.Steve shrugged his shoulders, he didn't feel that way because it was Walter who decided to stay there instead of doing his job."I said, just do your work inside. Besides, I don't mind even if I have to wait alone," Steve Hart said.Walter gave Steve Hart an annoyed look, wondering why Steve still didn't understand that he couldn't just let an outsider out of his sight.Belvoir Mansion is a s
The Cattegirn family, who had lost their weapon to fight against Steve Hart, ultimately had to surrender. They tried to figure out ways to calm Steve Hart's anger, which was now glaring at them so sharply."Darn it, what's happening? Are we going to lose all our assets?""What are you talking about? We wouldn't lose everything if we had just accepted Steve Hart's offer from the beginning. If we did, at least Steve Hart would have kindly let us continue enjoying all those assets.""You're right, we messed up."Almost the entire Cattegirn family agreed that their stubbornness had indeed led to losses. Their refusal to submit to Steve Hart now was leading them to ruin."Uncle Jason, please do something.""That's right, Brother Jason. If necessary, tell Steve Hart that we accept his offer.""I agree, at least that's the only way for us not to end up living as beggars after daring to offend him."All the other members of Cattegirn family began pleading with Jason and Olivia to resolve the
"Am I late?"A beautiful girl entered as if nothing had happened, casually approaching Steve to join Brandon in standing by Steve Hart's side."I, Helena Halbert, will represent the Halbert family in expressing support for Steve Hart. Whatever happens here, even if it means offending the Bridge family, the Halbert family will do its best to prove its seriousness in support," Helena said loudly so that everyone there could hear her."Helena, what do you mean? Why is the Halbert family doing this? Does that scumbag deserve your support like this?" Mark Bridge asked, not expecting Brandon alone to support Steve Hart, let alone Helena.Mark, who initially believed he could stubbornly make Agatha his fiancée, suddenly doubted whether this was worth it or not.Mark might still have confidence in handling the Lee family easily, but if the Halbert family also intervened, then this was a different story.The Bridge family might be strong and surpass the other two influential families in Avebur
BAM!Steve Hart's punch landed squarely on Mark's chin, causing Mark to stagger before falling because he wasn't prepared for it."Damn it! How dare you!""Everyone, move to protect Mr. Mark right now!""Stay away from Mr. Mark, hit him if necessary if he keeps trying to resist!"Quite a few people in the living room reacted strongly to Steve Hart's punch. Steve Hart didn't recognize who they were, but he could guess that they had come with Mark."Darn, for someone who dares to try to put your hands on my wife, you're quite the coward," Steve Hart said to Mark.Mark Bridge heard this and immediately ordered them to stop. Mark didn't want them to get involved because it would hurt his pride."Haha, you can go," Mark said, rising from his fall."Mr. Mark, are you okay?""Mr. Mark, why are you stopping us from teaching him a lesson?""Mr. Mark, that scumbag has gone too far, he should at least feel a few broken bones as punishment."The people stopped by Mark seemed dissatisfied; they qu
Steve Hart returned to the living room with confidence, the presence of Mark Bridge not bothering him in the slightest, let alone making him fearful.Simultaneously with Steve Hart's appearance, Agatha followed closely behind him. Agatha seemed to be hiding behind Steve Hart, afraid of every person in the living room, not wanting to feel the hateful gazes from them due to her sudden change of decision.Initially, Agatha had agreed to her engagement, pressured by her family to make that decision. Seeing her suddenly change her mind naturally angered every Cattegirn family member present.The Cattegirn family felt betrayed by Agatha, their sole rescuer, if only Agatha hadn't suddenly turned to side with Steve Hart like she was doing now."Agatha, what is the meaning of all this?!""Agatha, didn't you already agree to this engagement?!""Agatha, are you insane to decide to side with him and plan to disrupt your engagement with Mark?!"Each member of the Cattegirn family present asked ang
Steve's sudden entrance truly succeeded in catching the entire household off guard. The living room was indeed bustling with activity, mostly from the Cattegirn family, but there were also quite a few unfamiliar faces that Steve didn't know."Am I interrupting your event?" Steve Hart asked, his tone piercingly cold to those who heard it.Steve's question was not well-received by most people there; one of them even approached Steve with an angry expression.Olivia Cattegirn, Steve's mother-in-law, approached him and promptly pulled him away from the living room."What wicked plans do you have by coming here?!" Olivia exclaimed loudly, simultaneously slapping Steve's hand.Steve raised his eyebrows; he remembered vividly how just a few days ago, his mother-in-law seemed so hesitant and even afraid of him. Now, that fear seemed to have vanished, and Olivia appeared to be back to treating Steve as she pleased.Steve didn't dwell on Olivia's change in attitude. However, he already knew the
In the luxurious courtyard of the Cattegirn family mansion, Steve could see it bustling with invited guests, all of whom seemed surprised by his presence, as if his arrival was the last thing they expected."What's he doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be kicked out?""Maybe he's here to deal with his divorce from Agatha. Just let it be, there's no need to pay him any mind."Steve overheard the nearby conversations clearly, which only fueled his anger.Steve knew exactly why they were all gathered at his wife's family home. He had heard it from Brandon that the Cattegirn family was secretly attempting to arrange a marriage for Agatha behind his back."Agatha hasn't even divorced me yet, and you're all rushing to make decisions," Steve Hart muttered.Steve questioned what the Cattegirn family truly thought of him, realizing how much they were belittling him and disregarding his existence.Steve could entertain such thoughts because the marriage arrangement the Cattegirns were attempting
Having to endure the barrage of punches from Steve Hart, Howard, accustomed to instilling fear and commanding respect from others, suddenly found himself questioning his own abilities.This dealt a severe blow to Howard's pride. His confidence waned, along with his courage. Confronting Steve Hart, who stood before him, Howard realized the extent of his terror, rendering him powerless against Steve's onslaught."W-Wait, please cease hitting me," Howard pleaded softly, gazing at Steve Hart, yet Steve appeared disinclined to comply."Why should I acquiesce to your request?" Steve countered.Howard clenched his teeth, feeling overwhelmed by it all, then erupted vehemently, "Enough, you lunatic!"Howard's shout managed to stun Steve Hart for a moment. Seeing an opportunity, Howard immediately tried to break free from Steve Hart before running as fast as he could to escape from there.Steve just watched Howard running away from him, he had no desire to chase him, thinking it would just be a
After hearing the disrespectful words spewing from Steve Hart's mouth, Howard Harris immediately took steps to attack Steve Hart.Howard attempted to strike Steve Hart with all his might, intending to make Steve Hart fall with a single blow."Damn, do you even know who I am?" Howard asked as he swung his fist.Howard's punch was easily handled by Steve Hart, who dodged it effortlessly, almost as if he had done it without even trying.Howard Harris didn't give up after Steve Hart successfully avoided his first punch. He immediately tried to swing another punch, this time aiming for Steve Hart's abdomen.Steve quickly leaped backward before the punch could land on his abdomen, once again successfully evading Howard's attempted punch."You're quite impressive," Howard Harris said.Steve Hart smirked, "I could do it because your punch was too weak, there's nothing to boast about in that."Howard Harris glared at Steve Hart sharply, suspecting that Steve didn't know who he was to dare say
Steve Hart left the hospital with a wide smile on his face, not expecting his plan to instill a sense of remorse in Daniel to go so smoothly, but everything went according to his expectations.The $10 billion now in his pocket was evidence of his success, making Steve even more excited to step into a brighter future.The success of making Daniel realize his mistake didn't satisfy Steve. He felt there was one more thing he needed to do, which was to get an answer from the Cattegirn family regarding his offer.After a few days had passed, Steve felt it was enough time for his in-laws to decide on his offer. This prompted him to drive his car to the main house of the Cattegirn family to get the awaited answer.Steve arrived there with high hopes that his in-laws would accept his offer, especially since he made the offer solely for the happiness of Agatha, his wife.On his way to his wife's family house, Steve saw a girl who seemed quite familiar to him.The location where Steve saw the g
