Eric Daran saw his father suddenly silent after receiving a call, instantly curious, "Dad, what's wrong?"Jonathan ignored his son's question, his mind now completely muddled by what was happening to his family."Dad, who was that call from? What did you guys talk about that you look so bad like now?" Eric Daran asked worriedly, he was sure something was wrong after seeing his father's reaction.Jonathan Daran looked deeply at his son, he finally said in a weak voice, "Eric, we are destroyed."Eric Daran frowned, "Destroyed? What do you mean, Dad?""We're ruined ...."Eric Daran immediately felt unacceptable, he blamed Steve for what had now happened to his father.Eric Daran felt Steve was responsible for all of this, because it all started after Steve came to his house."You, damn it, what have you done?" Eric Daran gripped Steve's shirt collar firmly, he wanted Steve to give an explanation that his father could not.Steve Hart raised his eyebrows, "Why do you ask me? Ask your fathe
In the midst of Jonathan and Eric Daran's regrets, misfortune seemed to refuse to leave them. The Darans' home, which had seemed peaceful at the time, was suddenly thrown into chaos after a horde of police led by Carver Asher barged in."Mr. Steve... are you here too?" Carver Asher was quite surprised to find Steve Hart in the house.Steve Hart smiled, "Don't mind me, just do your job."Carver Asher nodded, he finally ordered his members to arrest Jonathan as well as Eric Daran.Neither Jonathan nor Eric Daran resisted when arrested, both of them could only regret their stupidity for having dared to offend Steve Hart.Jonathan Daran now even understood how influential Steve Hart really was, judging by how the police chief seemed so respectful of him."Damn it, this is the end," Jonathan Daran muttered.Carver Asher approached Jonathan, wanting to hear directly from Jonathan's mouth about why he had the audacity to mess with his city."Jonathan, do you underestimate me to commit all th
A few days had passed and the day of the auction finally arrived, Steve Hart, who had promised Carver he would be there, finally headed to the auction venue with his Bugatti Chiron.Ashford Hall, a building used for big events, was the venue. Steve Hart got there on time, as many people were also arriving in their luxury vehicles.Steve Hart's presence at Ashford Hall was quite interesting, not only because Steve Hart seemed unfamiliar to so many people, but also because Steve Hart came in a Bugatti Chiron and was greeted directly by Carver Asher, the person they knew as the VIP guest of the auction.Carver Asher himself approached Steve Hart along with a man about Steve Hart's age beside him, the man looked quite striking with the branded clothes he was wearing.Steve Hart saw the man beside Carver with a glance, he could immediately guess that it seemed that the man was a young generation of wealthy families."Mr. Steve, you've really come," Carver Asher said, welcoming Steve with a
Steve Hart's bid for a diamond ring that was being auctioned off, managed to surprise everyone there and Brandon Lee was no exception.Steve Hart bid twice as much as the starting price, making everyone there start to pay more attention to Steve Hart after all this time Brandon was the center of all their attention."Damn, which young master from a rich family is it again this time?""We're finished, we won't get anything from this auction if our rivals are monsters like Brandon.""Shut up you guys, isn't this going to be fun since Brandon finally has a rival?"Discussion ensued among those attending the auction, as they began to wonder which of the two was richer, Brandon or Steve Hart.Brandon, who overheard the conversation, immediately decided to bid again because he didn't want to lose face."21 million dollars," Brandon said, trying to stay ahead of Steve Hart."Okay, 21 million dollars. Are there any other bids?" the host asked the crowd.Brandon Lee smiled broadly as silence f
After the thousand-year-old ginseng auction officially started, many people began to compete by bidding the highest price to get the ginseng.Brandon Lee, who had been eyeing the ginseng from the start, was serious about getting it and tried to get rid of the people who wanted to compete with him."200 million dollars," said Brandon Lee, he plans to go all out in this auction.Many people who previously still had the desire to compete for the ginseng, now began to choose to withdraw from the competition. Brandon's bid of 200 million dollars was too much and they were forced to give up.The host, who had received no other bids for his ginseng, began to believe that Brandon would win the auction for the thousand-year ginseng.Not only the host, many people there also began to suspect that Brandon would be the owner of the ginseng. This was because none of them dared to bid at a higher price, in addition, Steve Hart, who had always been actively bidding, was now suddenly silent, making B
After Steve won the thousand-year-old ginseng auction, the auction was officially over. The ginseng, which was the last item in his auction, was sold for 500 million dollars and this created a stir.It was indeed a huge amount of money, even more than the total wealth of most of the people who came.Knowing that, many people started coming up to Steve right after the completion of the auction, they wanted to get to know Steve better and if they were lucky, they could become friends."Mr. Steve, you are amazing.""That's right, Mr. Steve. I wonder who you really are, why haven't I seen you before?""Mr. Steve, how about we exchange contacts? We might become friends, I can introduce many beautiful women to you if you are willing."Steve Hart just showed his friendly smile, it was a forced smile as a form of politeness.Steve realized that many people there were the type of people he hated, they were the type of people who would only cling to the stronger while oppressing those they cons
Steve Hart began to glance at Carver Asher. The way Brandon looked at Steve Hart now, which was hopeful, was enough to make Steve feel awkward because the two of them had just been involved in a dispute during the auction.Steve hoped Carver would help him refuse Brandon's invitation, he thought it was better than having to eat with the person he had just taught a lesson for underestimating him."Sorry, Mr. Steve. I'm afraid I have to go first, my subordinates have picked me up and I have to get back to the office as soon as possible because I have work to do," said Carver Asher, he chose to leave there because he wanted Steve Hart and his best friend's son to be closer.Steve Hart tapped his forehead when Carver left there, he guessed Carver must not have understood the meaning of his glance."So how about it, Mr. Steve. Are you in?" asked Brandon Lee still with that hopeful look in his eyes.Steve Hart paused, deciding to consider the answer he would give.[Why is the host hesitatin
After the respectful welcome given to Steve by every employee of the Mystic Morsels restaurant, one of them, a female waitress, came over to Steve with a friendly smile on her face."Mr. Steve, your presence has been eagerly awaited by our restaurant," said the waitress.Steve Hart just nodded, he really didn't understand why the situation had become like this."Pssttt..." Steve with a low voice, he tried to call the system to appear.[Ding!][What's wrong, Host?]Steve Hart immediately breathed a sigh of relief as the system responded to his call, ‘Hey, do you know why every employee of this restaurant has such respect for me?’[Ding!][Host just asking, or intending to use the Information Gathering feature?]‘Come on, just answer. Don't be calculating like this,’ Steve Hart muttered.[Ding!][Alright alright, the System will give an explanation so listen][Ding!][When the Hosts first came to this restaurant, they had made a mistake and they didn't want it to happen again. Because o
