Revenge of the Abandoned Son

A press conference was held in a large room with a backdrop of tall walls adorned with the company’s logo. On the stage, there was a conference table with the company’s logo, which now looked bleak. Rows of white chairs were neatly arranged for the members of the press and company executives. The CEO of the company, Kalix Owen, sat in the middle of the table, appearing calm amidst the tension of others. Beside him, there were several lawyers and financial advisors of the company. Members of the media and journalists sat in their chairs with pens, cameras, and microphones ready to cover the news. The room was very quiet and tense, with the expressions of the attendees reflecting concern and disappointment. Before the conference began, the room was shrouded in a dark and somber atmosphere, as if representing the end of an era in the world of technology. Kalix lifted his tired-looking face and slowly said, “It is with great regret that we make this statement today. Our company, State-

Kalix furrowed his brow, trying to remember this incident from his previous life. It seemed like something like this had happened before, but back then, he didn't go to the back building out of fear. Consequently, he ended up getting more bullying from Lorenz. As for now, Kalix still didn't want to go meet Lorenz. However, he also didn't want to offend the guy for the time being. It's not that his soul was the same as before. Kalix knew that his current temperament wouldn't hesitate to respond to punches with punches. However, he still needed a scholarship at this university. He couldn't get involved in fights or anything that would tarnish his reputation. "Alright, I'll go see him," he said, walking casually to his closet. "Don't you hear? Senior Lorenz said now!" Jimmy shouted again. "Don't let the senior come here and cause trouble for me and Grey." Kalix combed his hair casually and replied, "Don't worry, he won't cause trouble for you guys." Jimmy snorted and left with Grey.

Kalix stared at the series of numbers with hatred. Even though he despised the old man, he still remembered everything related to him, whether it was in his past life or now. His mother had loved the man so much that she had gone to great lengths to find him. She even waited for him to return for decades. However, in the end, what she got was not what she had hoped for. Mason did return to his hometown, but not to meet Kalix's mother, Glory, but to sever all ties from their past. At that time, Mason wanted to run for vice governor. Before his political journey reached its peak, he wanted to cleanse his past. This caused Glory to suffer a heart attack, and her condition worsened before she eventually passed away. To this day, it was Kalix's biggest regret. He should have never hidden anything from his mother. Fortunately, he had a second chance. His mother was still alive and had not been killed by Mason. "You have to go meet him," the system said, snapping him out of his reverie.

While the system was running, the car had arrived in front of the fast-food restaurant. He didn't come to work, but to get away from his current job. However, he already had enough money to invest and use as initial capital. He paid the taxi fare using an e-wallet and left after thanking the driver. As he entered the fast-food restaurant, he was greeted by familiar laughter. It was the laughter of his dorm roommate and classmates. Kalix ignored them, but onlookers didn't think so. "Hey, aren't these your roommates? Bro, come over and sit with us!" Rocky exclaimed when he saw Kalix walking in. Their seating was not far from the entrance and the service area, so it wasn't surprising that they noticed Kalix's arrival. Rocky had a friend who was a subordinate of Lorenz, so he knew that Lorenz and his friends liked to bother Kalix. As the five of them stared in his direction, Kalix finally responded, nonchalantly saying, "Yeah, enjoy your meal." Kalix went to the back and asked one of

No one answered, they only heard rumors about Kalix from a remote village, but no one knew where that was. Even the truth itself was somewhat sketchy."You all don't know anything, and it's probably better that way.""Whatever it is, we don't care. What we know is that you're poor and come from a village. How can you have a platinum card? Do you think we're foolish?""Well, you're not foolish," Kalix replied with a nod. "I hate to admit it, but I have a filthy rich old man for a father."After saying that, Kalix went to check on Rocky's condition. He let the others have their wild thoughts. Afterward, Kalix left them and returned to his dorm room.He didn't care what those people thought of him.The next day, Kalix noticed two of his dorm mates looking awkward around him, but their attitude wasn't as annoying as yesterday. Kalix took a shower and got everything ready before heading to class. He had some bread for breakfast while walking.On the campus forum, there were discussions abo
