The man in white smiled meaningfully at Aiden while eating his food. Aiden felt a little worried because there could be employees who had seen him somewhere and knew his identity as a member of the Robinson family. That would be very dangerous.Aiden looked at the man with a severe gaze. "What do you mean, have we met somewhere?"The man who was a foreign scientist from a laboratory in the company stopped his hand that was about to put food into his mouth. He chuckled. "Apparently, my guess was right."Aiden's face grew tense. However, he tried to remain calm to avoid further suspicion by the man in front of him. "What is it?"The man leaned his face a little closer to Aiden. He whispered to Aiden. "I know that you're not in the employee transfer program here, but you're actually a spy for the central company, right? You came here to keep an eye on our work."Aiden breathed a little sigh of relief. He was shocked because he thought the man in front of him knew that Aiden was the next
Preparations for the announcement will soon be made. Everything was almost 50% complete. Invitations for the announcement party had been distributed, and Robinson's house, where the information would take place, had been made up to look presentable. Aiden and Muller had also prepared for this.Muller handed over some paperwork that Aiden needed to sign before the announcement took place in a week. Of course, they would be even busier than this when the successor to the Robinson family was officially announced."Here, Master." Muller placed the files on Aiden's desk politely and respectfully. "There are a few other files that also require your approval."Aiden nodded his head, then reached for the files Muller handed him. "Have you made sure no one will know that I'm going to the Robinson family home?"Muller nodded. "Yes, Master. I've told the staff here that you're out of town on important business and for a few days, they'll be finishing up all the work here. So when you return, all
The door to Aiden's room was wide open. You could accompany him from behind. The bodyguards immediately went to their respective positions, escorting Aiden to the center of the Robinson family's main house. The servants, dressed in matching black and white, lined up neatly to welcome Aiden. They all bowed halfway, respectfully bowing to Aiden.Many people were attending the party. All invited guests were respected people, all business associates associated with the Robinson family companies. Many other wealthy families came. Especially the top 15 wealthiest families in the city. All eyes were on Aiden as he began to walk through the party area.Victor followed in a wheelchair, pushed by one of the bodyguards. Everyone there bowed respectfully, greeting Victor in a friendly manner. "Welcome, Mr. Victor."Victor only responded to the friendly greetings from the invited guests with a smile. Victor did not want to linger at the party because his condition was still weak, and he had not re
The party to announce the new leader of the Robinson family went smoothly despite some commotion and other incidents caused by the other Robinson family members' dislike of Victor's decision, but all were quickly resolved so the party could run smoothly.All the news about Aiden spread throughout the country. People who had once demeaned and insulted Aiden suddenly called his phone number, and that disturbed Aiden's peace, so Aiden decided to change his phone number.Muller handed over Aiden's cell phone respectfully in the office corridor. "I've saved some important phone numbers. Like Mr. Victor's phone number, my phone number, and Miss Neira's and Miss Ilana's numbers into your new card, Master."Aiden nodded as he grabbed his cell phone from Muller's hand. "Make sure no one knows my new phone number."Muller nodded his head respectfully. "Yes, Master."Aiden went into his office, working as usual. Aiden checked some of the subsidiary's data, which had grown with the news of the Ro
Aiden was enjoying his leisure time on the lounger. He was enjoying a glass of cold orange juice while watching the scenery in front of the ship through the binoculars in his hand. He could even do that while fishing in the sea.One of the black-clad male servants respectfully approached Aiden. "Excuse me, sir. I brought the snacks you wanted earlier."Aiden nodded his head as he placed his binoculars on the long chair. "Yes, just put it on the table. I'll eat it later."The male servant nodded his head respectfully. "Yes, sir." Then, he placed a bowl of snacks in the form of roasted almonds that were still warm on the table.Aiden got up from his lounger and stood directly before the ship's guardrail. He picked up his fishing hook, which was already moving and even had the shadow of a sizable fish attached. Aiden immediately pulled and twisted the fishing line, lifting it high by extending and pulling it.Aiden's smile spread perfectly when the fish's head slowly rose upwards. "I'm i
Aiden was in the old town. He was observing the situation there. Many things made Aiden's observations deeper. People in the old town carried out many activities but were slower and quieter than in other cities. One thing that attracted Aiden to the old town was that only the buildings looked old, but they had modern technology standards in big cities.Aiden smiled as some shops in one of the old buildings used robots to make their products. "Not much different from the scenery in the city. Everything is modern with the usual advanced technology."Aiden continued to walk while endlessly observing the people and things there. Until he stopped at an old building that looked crowded and smelled delicious from there. He entered the place and then strolled to a long table at the ordering and payment counter. Aiden wanted to order some food there.A man in simple clothes with a white apron around his waist behind the counter respectfully approached Aiden. "Can I help you? What would you lik
Aiden's existence seems to have disappeared for quite some time from the social world. Several rumours have spread, some even saying that Aiden is completely gone after the bombing. Some say that Aiden is hiding somewhere and keeping his whereabouts a secret.Even people in remote areas had heard the rumours about the house, which spread quickly. Even Aiden had heard it over and over again. Even now, Aiden heard the rumours directly from some people at the restaurant he was at.One of the people who was talking about it seemed eager to make his own assumptions about Aiden. "If that man is currently hiding, it means that he is a coward.""Yes, that's right. He should have surfaced if he was hiding. And about the big accident, it seems to be just a diversionary rumor about the Robinson family's business that has become unbalanced." The navy-clad man commented as if the news was true.The other two colleagues there nodded. "That rumor is still up in the air because we haven't heard any n
Aiden continued to walk away from the restaurant until now, he was in a deserted place. Aiden saw several cars parked freely without their owners. There was burning smoke from an oil barrel that had not been used for a long time. All around him, on almost every street corner he passed, quite a few homeless people were sitting and lying on the street on old cardboard boxes. They mingled with the garbage that was scattered haphazardly. A slum area where poor people live.The people's faces looked pale from hunger. Their bodies were dirty. They wore layers of clothes. Not the thick clothes usually used to avoid the cold, but all the clothes that covered their bodies were unfit for use and had holes everywhere. Even the people's clothes had lost their color; they were all the same color, a dusky brown that was faded and dirty from years of being homeless on the streets.Aiden continued walking there, then slowed his footsteps when he entered a narrow alley. Aiden deliberately walked alone
