Ken looked furiously at the thugs he had asked to come to his aid. "No, you can't do that." He grabbed the leader's hand, trying to stop him.

But the thug vigorously shook his hand, jerking Ken's hand out of his grip. He looked at Ken with a different gaze, unlike before, who was obedient and polite to him. He smiled with the corners of his lips turned up at an upward angle. "Loyal?" he repeated with a giggle. You're asking people like us to be loyal?"

It sounded funny to him, and Richard faintly smiled along with him. For those who were paid money to move, it was easy for them to change course to those who offered more. Loyalty, that kind of loyalty only applied to fellow members, and even then, it could not be guaranteed that all of them understood that kind of loyalty.

The chief thug shook his head. "We work to offer services, and we act realistically." He brought his head closer to Ken with his forehead forward and chin inward. "We don't offer that kind of loyalty to our cli

    "Is this really the party?" One of the crowds standing in front of the red carpet and just getting out of his luxury car looked at the crowded building with confusion.He found that the party was not like an ordinary party. Too many presses came and took pictures along the red carpet that stretched outside towards the main entrance, but access to the estate was so tight that he needed to show his invitation card at the main gate and the second gate. Then, it took a short time to scan the invitation card as well.Her feet walked slowly with her partner on the red carpet, and soon, the flashes of the cameras illuminated the scene, flashing with such frequency that her eyes were slightly distracted.When he reached the doorway, he closed his eyes for a moment while handing over his invitation card to be checked again. "Ah, I'm not used to those flashing blits. This is the first time I've felt so many cameras pointed at me just for a picture." He spoke to the plus one he had brought.The

    "So he is the successor of the Marrison group?" Jhon looked at him with an observing gaze.His eyes continued to stare intently, looking at the man who he found to have quite a strong and intense aura in the room. As a member of the Ridel family who was sharp in judgment and reaction, Jhon recognized James' figure with his strong yet friendly aura.But his son, who was currently in charge, had a more pressing presence than James Marrison. Richard, with his cold facial expressions and charismatic demeanor, would clearly provide a different style of leadership."I don't think the one who will be the leader, Marrison, has a stronger aura than his predecessor," Bally commented beside Jhon, who glanced at her.Jhon tugged at the corners of his lips, smiling. "Yes, he's definitely different from the friendly, smiling Mr. James. But we all know what James Marrison is like behind that smile. He is cold-hearted and often makes decisions without looking at the other side.""Yes, I remember very

    "No way... no... no! This is all impossible!" Jasmine screamed hysterically and started blindly throwing things in her room.This afternoon she was walking with a man who had been her lover for the past few months, the same man who showed off his luxury car when she accidentally met Richard, the one who also took her to the exhibition where she met Richard again.But after they had bought a few things and were about to cross over to another building, Jasmine and the other people on the street stared at the Videotron that was broadcasting important state news.At first, she was just looking because the party seemed so festive. She was always attracted to luxury, but the moment her eyes saw the figure of Richard that she recognized so well appearing there and being reported as the leader of the family, her heart froze like it had stopped beating, and she couldn't feel it.Jasmine lost her balance due to her weak legs and asked to be driven home immediately. Along the way, she compared e

    "I'm tired. I want to rest for a while." Richard handed his golf club to the caddie there, and then his eyes signalled to the staff he brought to hold back the people who had accompanied him to play golf earlier.The people following him immediately approached and tried to call out to him. "Mr. Richard, sir, wait a moment." The stocky man was quickly restrained by Richard's staff.Others were also busy trying to reach him. "Sir, how about we talk for just a moment? Fifteen minutes... oh, no. Just give me ten minutes, sir." He insisted and tried to get closer even though Richard's staff was in the way.While Richard remained unconcerned, he continued walking towards his place, resting on one of the sofas while watching the others play. Occasionally, his eyes glanced at those who were still calling his name in a pleading voice, hoping to talk to him about the work they had been mentioning since earlier."Since that day, they have never left me in peace," Richard muttered under his breat

    The man who helped Richard was named Damien. He left after he met with Richard from there. The look on his once cheerful face suddenly turned dark and cold as soon as he got into the car and drove off somewhere.Her meeting with Richard had lasted so long that Richard did not recognize her anymore. Moreover, it was just a small meeting that lasted briefly. Her help was simple and not memorable because people usually helped her selflessly."I should have gotten her interested in coming." He muttered softly with a regretful tone, running his car quickly until it arrived at a building that looked like an old building on the outside.Parking the car there, he got out and straightened his clothes first. Then, walking into the building, he passed through several rooms that looked like part of a house and then knocked on a large brown door. "Sir, I have returned." He stayed in front of the door, waiting for it to open."Come in." A voice from inside the door sounded, and he began to open it

    "So, how is Balmond doing?" He came to XT, the technology company where he left Balmond to work there.Currently beside him, Richard was accompanied by the middle-aged man who had left Balmond to watch over him yesterday. The man seemed to be trying very hard to balance Richard's steps, which moved usually, but every step his long legs took made him move fast."Balmond is currently in the development stage of his own application, sir." He turned his head briefly to look at Richard but did not dare to ask him to reduce his speed. He only maintained his speed to keep up with Richard's pace to avoid falling behind.Richard then turned to her. "Him? What kind of application is he developing?""Some kind of budget planning planer app, sir. He said that in the future, many people will think critically and want to laugh at everything, and he wants to help make that happen by making that app for the current generation who always use some kind of gadget for everything they need." The man expla

    "What do you mean by my cousin?" Richard was entirely surprised by that. His steps slowed down, and he came closer to them.James didn't look like his usual self. This was the first time James had shown an expressionless and quite tense face. "Sit down. Let's talk about what happened."Richard obeyed his father's words, sitting on the sofa that was separated from the two of them facing each other. As he sat down, he noticed Reynolds's face, which kept looking at him with an unnerving gaze and a disturbing smile. From his trembling face and hands, Richard knew that the man was an alcoholic. No matter how much he tried to maintain his composure, he did not look fine. The pale face that seemed to be hiding from the sun too often and the dark eye bags and droopy eyes were sights that he did not expect a member of the Marrison family to have, but judging from his facial features, Richard could say that he recognized him.He looked similar to his father, but why had he never known about thi

    "Richard, where are you going?" James asked him, making Richard's steps stop before their dining table. "Sit down and have breakfast together. Why did you just leave without saying hello?"James was rather annoyed by that, he felt that he no longer got the respect he had before from Richard just because he had passed on the leadership of the family and the group to him completely. His feelings became more vulnerable, and Richard's actions made it easier for him to jump to conclusions."Do you think, now that you're the leader, you don't have time for a breakfast together that doesn't take that long?" James was too proud to say that Richard's attitude offended him.While Richard took it in his stride. "Of course not, father, I can manage my time well." Richard then sat there and joined them.He originally wanted to pretend that he didn't know and didn't see them because he didn't want to share a table with Reynolds. For him, Reynolds was an unpleasant figure. He did not try to avoid h

    One evening, after a few hours, more than one helicopter landed in the village area, and the whole village became crowded because of this.They did not expect that the missing person who had been searched for by the strangers who came to the village was still alive. To them, it was quite impossible; considering what the storm was like that day and the ocean was a fierce place, they did not think that the missing person was still safe and intact."Mr. Richard." Smith got off first and came to him hurriedly.The 45-year-old man hugged Richard so tightly and emotionally that he had almost given up hope in his quest to find Richard. He himself had even stopped hoping that the possibility of Richard being alive and somewhere was such a great miracle. He was alive and found somewhere.Smith released his embrace and looked at Richard with happiness mixed with emotion. "I'm glad you're okay, sir."After Smith let go, James, who was led by Rachel, hugged him tightly. "I trust you are doing wel

    "Alright, then. Tomorrow, we will go to look for your family's whereabouts." Alexa made the choice; Richard looked at her, who seemed confused.Richard didn't understand why Alexa seemed so serious when they had never discussed it with obvious effort before. "Why all of a sudden?" he wondered if perhaps they no longer wanted him there. Is it possible that my presence is becoming inconvenient?"Alexa smiled with a shaded face, her head shook, and her hand rubbed lightly over the back of Richard's hand, trying to get his attention. "No, it's not. Your existence is not inconvenient at all; quite the opposite. I'm honestly grateful to have you here." Alexa pursed her lips tightly and turned her attention to stare straight back ahead.She stared at the vast and calm expanse of the sea. Her feelings about letting go of Richard were still quite reluctant. She had a great desire to keep Richard there, but she also didn't want to be selfish."Today my friend came to tell me that in the village

    After finishing cleaning up, Richard went to Alexa, who also seemed to be cleaning up the glasses in their house's living room.Richard's eyes scanned the place, looking for the whereabouts of the guest whose voice had been heard earlier when he entered through the back door. "Has the guest gone home?" he glanced over and helped Alexa.Without hesitation, Richard's hand took over the tray Alexa was carrying and placed it in the kitchen. At the same time, Alexa followed suit, carrying the snack container. "Yes, they're home." She replied flatly, without any expression that sounded cheerful from her answer.Richard watched her, noticing something a little different about Alexa's demeanour compared to usual. He thought maybe the guests had affected her mood, or maybe something else was to blame. He wasn't sure exactly, but even he didn't want to ask if Alexa didn't seem to want to explain. "Who are the guests who came?" She made small talk while walking towards the dining table.Approach

    "Jacob, where are you going?" one of the villagers greeted Richard, who seemed to be walking with an axe in his hand. "Are you heading to the forest?" he asked enthusiastically because he was happy to see Richard, one of the new residents there.Richard, who had just managed to turn around and look for who was talking to him, smiled and nodded. "Morning, Mr. Jack." He politely greeted the old man whom he recognized as Sam's friend."Yes, morning, young man." He smiled kindly in response to Richard's greeting. "If you have time, come to the house. You promised to help me yesterday when you were free."Richard nodded. "Later, when I am free, I will try to drop by, sir. " He selflessly helped some nearby neighbours who needed his help.It had been a month since he had been in that place, and now he was living a very normal life there. Just like everyone else, Richard also had his own activities. Sometimes, he joined some men to go fishing at sea, without him knowing that he used to be a

    Sitting in his private room, James looked anxiously at the picture frame containing Richard's picture. For days, he had been waiting for news of Richard and conducted a massive search. But the search was ultimately fruitless. There were still no reports of Richard's whereabouts or any signs of him being stranded somewhere.Her worries grew as time passed. The first 24 hours after Richard disappeared were the golden hour to find his whereabouts and determine whether he was in good or bad condition.But a week had passed since then, and there was still no further news of his whereabouts."Is there still no sign of Richard's whereabouts?" James asked Smith in the room.His anxiety was rife with other things, his heart was in turmoil, and his feelings had become chaotic since Richard's whereabouts were declared missing.The news of Richard's disappearance made him not stop thinking about where Richard was and what the situation was like. His condition, which he continues to worry about, c

    "What took you so long to come back?" Alexa, who was waiting there, turned her head and noticed Richard, who had just returned, walking over to her.Richard nodded his head. "In line." he took over the groceries held by Alexa.Telling her about what he experienced while inside earlier, for him, Alexa didn't need to know that the Baron was still bothering him. Apart from not wanting to make the woman anxious, he also didn't want Alexa to have a particular view of his attitude that could be considered rude by her.He smiled at the woman. "Do we have anything else to do? Or do you want us to go home?"Alexa helped Richard carry a few easy things to take to not burden Richard too much. "Let's just go home; it's too late. Tomorrow, I have to get up early to store breakfast because Dad will be leaving early in the morning." She started to leave the place, followed by Richard, who walked beside her."Tomorrow morning? Where is Sam going?""Dad said there is someone he needs to help. One of t

    Alexa glanced at Richard with a gaze that stared strangely at him."Why are you looking at me like that?" Richard, who realized her gaze, then asked.Alexa headed back to stare straight ahead. "I was just wondering. How could you do that? When you did it earlier, I looked so expert. Unlike someone who just tried, your posture and then the techniques you used seemed to clearly show that you were an expert." She looked back at Richard in confusion. "Tell me, how did you do it?"Richard looked at her in silence for a while. Like Alexa, he was confused by what had been done. He did not expect that his ability was that great.The more he thought about it, the more astonished he became. He obviously didn't remember anything at all., but strangely, he could do it all so well. "I don't know., Richard shook his head as he replied. "I'm not sure myself what I'm doing and how I'm doing it so well. All I feel is that my body knows how to do it." He explained the confusion to Alexa.After hearing

    "No, it can't be like that. I disagree that I should stay away from her." Baron rejected their agreement, which he agreed to without thinking.Obviously, Baron rejected Richard's request to limit his interaction with Alexa. He dared challenge Richard and felt hateful and annoyed at him because Alex was the reason. He didn't want any other man or Richard to get close to him.Baron has liked Alexa for a long time, and Jack, from their teenage stuff, has always followed and been attracted to her. But his feelings were unrequited because Alexa didn't show any interest in him at all.The Baron knew that. He knew that Alexa didn't like him, but he still tried to get close to her, hoping that someday Alexa would change her mind. He kept trying and never gave up because he thought that maybe his efforts would be rewarded with what he hoped for someday.But if he couldn't get close to her in the end just because he lost the bet, then his efforts all this time were futile and ridiculous.He sho

    The two of them were now in their respective positions, wearing a set of arrows and getting ready in place. He arrows where they were. They were surrounded by people who wanted to witness the showdown between the two.On one side, Richard only came along with Alexa, who was currently so nervous and anxious about the possibility of Richard's condition getting a bad name with this challenge.On the other hand, Baron was surrounded by friends who were eager to see Richard defeated. The young men of the village clearly disliked Richard's existence and the way Richard behaved towards them.Specifically, they didn't need a reason to dislike Richard because even just looking at him could immediately make them dislike him and want to look down on him."Shouldn't you undo your intentions, Jacob?" Alexa approached him again and spoke in a worried tone.She was distraught, having promised her father that she would look after Richard. She would take Richard there with the insight that maybe from
