Aarav doesn't know why everywhere he meets Ella. It was as if when he was trying to avoid Ella, at that time Aarav was being reunited repeatedly by the Northlay Family.Now, after Ella shook hands with Edward who knew her, Ella fixed her eyes on Aarav. There was nothing Aarav could say as long as he saw where Ella was in front of him now."I didn't think that we would meet here again," said the current Ella ... for some reason her face even looked shy at Aarav.Aarav doesn't say anything. Instantly the atmosphere that was originally relaxed became tense and full of awkwardness.No one dared say anything, including Watson and Darius. They both know that Ella is Aarav's ex-wife, while Edward knows that Aarav was once part of the Northlay family.On the other hand Aarav sighs heavily. Unable to say anything now, especially in the position of being in the presence of important company people, Aarav finally bowed to Watson and Edward. Signaling goodbye to the both of them.Luckily Watson a
"I didn't expect your ex-wife to come here at all."That's what Darius said when he and Aarav sat in one of the VIP seats. After a while since Aarav met Ella, Aarav and Darius didn't speak at all. Even Darius's last question before the two of them to the VIP seats had not received an answer from Aarav.Aarav immediately turned his gaze to Darius. He took a glass of wine that had been provided for all VIP guests."Well, that's fine," Aarav replied with a heavy sigh at the end of the sentence. "After all he's from the Northlay Family, his business networks are all over the place. He'll definitely join if his family accepts the invitation."After listening to Aarav's answer, Darius actually wasn't entirely sure it was true. Aarav's face had been showing an uncomfortable feeling since earlier. Moreover, the Northlay Family's seat was only three seats away from the two of them."Come on, don't lie, Aarav." Darius tries to cheer up Aarav while nudging Aarav's hand. "Even if you do feel unco

Aarav gaped in shock because he was too surprised by the second mission he got now.Wasn't the system wrong in giving him a mission?! How did Aarav get paid investing $400,000 in four hours?!Aarav might still be able to complete his previous mission, when he has to pay off debts and work with Darius. But this time the mission is different. Very. Aarav confronts someone of higher rank. A third order investor.Moreover, in just four hours.In the event of a meeting between investors as well as the inauguration of the opening of the collaborati

DONE!][HYPNOTIC SKILL VIEW CONFIDENCE TURNS ON!][TARGET LOCKED!]Aarav knows that even if he doubts he can complete the second mission, he must still complete it. Now he was on stage, watching a group of investors and other business owners, being the center of attention under the lights that focused only on him.This had never been felt by Aarav.The only thing Aarav focused on was the figure of a man at one of the front row tables, the VVIP table, with Watson. Namely John Layer. Someone who was the target for his second mission now.Now it's Aarav's turn to give his speech as the owner of the D'Premium Steak Restaurant business. Aarav had to get John Layyer's attention.'Hey, Aarav, I'm going to get a cash injection from John Layer. You know who he is, right? We compete for it.'That's what Ezraf had said an hour ago, before Aarav left the bathroom. Aarav neither accepts the challenge nor refuses. But somehow, he
This feels like a dream. John Layer will provide investment funds to Aarav and Darius of $400,000 each—the exact same amountAarav still couldn't say anything, and neither did Darius. There was a time lag for Aarav and Darius to digest John Layyer's words as if to understand whether to lie or not.John Layerer looked at the two of them in turn."Is there something wrong?" asked John Layer in surprise.Then Darius patted Aarav on the back to wake him up, and Aarav snapped out of his reverie. Aarav and Darius immediately shook their heads laughing awkwardly."No, Mr. John, there's absolutely nothing wrong. We... were just very surprised that we didn't expect it." Darius was the first to speak.Aarav now nods in agreement. "That's right, Mr. John. We think the amount of investment funds you have provided is very large."John Layer hissed and frowned for a few seconds. He seemed to be considering something."Actuall

The investment is officially given to Aarav restaurant and Darius tavern in the presence of VVIP guests or the public.The headlines of the article became trending this morning. Aarav had just woken up exhausted when Watson called him. So, it was in Watson's private study that Aarav was now, looking at the quite large projector screen and Watson standing beside the screen with a proud smile."Look at this, Aarav, the name of your restaurant is mentioned
[16%... 44%... 75%... 89%... TRANSACTION COMPLETED!][YOUR ACCOUNT HAS RECEIVED A TRANSFER OF $100,000,000][YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE: $100,700,000]Aarav hissed watching his account balance suddenly explode. In all his life, never had this much money entered his account. All the hairs on his neck were bristling as he shrugged his shoulders because he felt goosebumps.'Is all this money real?' Aarav thought while looking at the amount of money in his banking."Ah, Aarav. Turns out you have to deal with this club." Watson, who was sitting beside Aarav, sighed regretfully.Who would have thought that the thing Aarav had been most afraid of would come true?Even though a few hours ago, just when Aarav said he didn't want to face the Moonshine Bounce Club, the system actually gave him a scary mission. Aarav doesn't know how he has to go undercover to meet a celebrity.Aarav never did this.Can someone pull it out so it doesn't face the current mission?"Mr. Watson, I know I shouldn't say this
"One pour of The Winston Cocktail for you Mr Aarav."So said Kate as she poured the alcohol into a cup the size of a man's fistful. Meanwhile, Aarav was silent, giddy looking at the cocktail he ordered that fell into the glass. The distinctive sound of alcohol pouring into a glass gave Aarav goosebumps.It wasn't that Aarav had never seen or poured alcohol into a glass like this. But because this is the first most expensive alcohol he drank. In his entire life, it was the first time that Aarav would drink a cocktail that cost 12,916 USD!Aarav never thought that he would find one point in his life, he could inhale the aroma of the most expensive cocktail. This… for some reason caused a pleasant sensation in his heart."Thank you Kate," Aarav replied after Kate had poured the cocktail. "Oh, pour for your glass too. Bill on me."Kate's eyes widened in surprise. With a dumbfounded look, he asked, "Are you serious?""Of course." Then Aarav took the bottle of The Winston Cocktail from Kate
Aarav's senses became uneasy after seeing the arrival of the two strangers.When the two men's car had disappeared completely and Helena, the articles editor, had walked in, Aarav hurriedly got out of the car. Benzala and Robert walked behind Aarav, keeping an eye on the surroundings as they walked down the path of Helena's yard.When Helena's footsteps reached the door, Aarav immediately stopped walking. This made Benzala and Robert stop their steps as well.Aarav was deliberately silent for a split second because he knew Helena was aware of his presence. Helena's head slowly turned back and was somewhat surprised by Aarav's arrival.Benzala and Robert stiffened at Helena's sharp, wary gaze."Miss Helena?" called Aarav in a cautious voice.Helena watched Aarav through eyes that seemed to guess who Aarav was. After a few seconds, Helena - with a calm gesture - took a deep breath and exhaled."Who are you?" she asked. One hand silently moved to the back of her body. "How do you know my
The holographic light screen in front of Aarav's face suddenly appeared. Aarav was startled and stopped himself from standing up from the living room chair. When he realized that the hologram screen was faintly displaying Watson's figure, Aarav suddenly panicked.Aarav's situation was now in the middle of Benzala, Robert, and Vito. He couldn't possibly communicate with Watson through the system in front of all of them. They wouldn't be able to see the system in front of Aarav's face and would suspect something important he was hiding."Why, Aarav? Is there something you need again?" asked Benzala after seeing Aarav sit back down.With an awkward gesture, Aarav tried to find a lie to avoid Benzala's question. When his eyes accidentally glanced at the backyard, Aarav finally found the right excuse."Can I go to the back garden?" Aarav asked Vito.Suddenly Aarav's question surprised Benzala, Vito, and Robert. After Aarav asked the question, Vito was silent for a moment. He looked confuse
"How are Mr. Watson and Darius?" Aarav asked Robert and Benzala who had just arrived at the hospital.After leaving William's secret hideout, Aarav told Robert and Benzala to take Watson and Darius to Aarav's house. Meanwhile, here Aarav is now, standing guard at the hospital during Marcolin's bullet removal surgery."They are fine. But unfortunately, they are still in shock because of the incident where Marcolin was shot," Benzala replied, sitting beside Aarav with a heavy sigh."How was the surgery to remove Marcolin's bullet?" Robert asked after sitting on Aarav's empty left side.Aarav looked up at the crest above the operating room. There the green light was still on, indicating that the operation had not yet been completed."You just look at that sign. It's still on. Marcolin's surgery isn't over yet. The doctor said there are indications of serious infection from the gunshot wound. Especially since the pistol bullet landed right in the spinal cord."Hearing Aarav's statement, R
The operation to remove the bullet in Marcolin's body was successful.On the other hand, Marcolin's condition could not be the same as before due to the spinal cord injury he suffered. Marcolin was unconscious and had to rest completely. That meant Marcolin would not participate in Aarav's plan to avenge his cruel conglomerate allies.Aarav had left Marcolin to be guarded by seven personal bodyguards. Peter was also there so that he could call Aarav if anything dangerous happened.Marcolin's hospitalization room was also VVIP class. Aarav deliberately chose the room because it had a special door that could only be opened using a password."Can you carry out your plan without Marcolin, Aarav?" asked Robert beside Aarav.Aarav with Robert and Benzala in the car. As planned, Aarav was going to the writer's home address. Luckily, Aarav still had the paper given to him by Vito, the editor of the article."I can do that, even though it's really hard," replied Aarav, who was still looking ou

Aarav didn't realize that Marcolin had planned the details so carefully.Moments ago, before entering the operating room, the doctor who handled Marcolin gave him a small tool box. A camera that was so small that it could not be seen. Aarav was actually confused as to why Marcolin kept such a small camera.Now that Aarav was watching on the laptop screen, he was shocked. It contained footage from behind Marcolin's back. Aarav, Benzala, and Robert didn't even realize that Marcolin had secretly placed a camera in his back area.The camera was recording everything. It was very clear.Starting from the moment Marcolin fought with William, William who kicked Marcolin's back - at this moment Aarav somehow believed Marcolin deliberately turned his body, and also included the moment William brandished a gun until Marcolin's body collapsed.There is one scene where Marcolin stands back so that the camera captures William torturing one of the bodyguards in the basement.Watching all these video
"How are Mr. Watson and Darius?" Aarav asked Robert and Benzala who had just arrived at the hospital.After leaving William's secret hideout, Aarav told Robert and Benzala to take Watson and Darius to Aarav's house.

BRAK! BRAK!The sound of loud wood banging could be heard from the door of the room being kicked with force. With his heart racing, Aarav tried to get the door open. Next to Aarav, Peter took turns kicking the door.The door in front of them was the only way out. Before William could escape from Marcolin and Peter's trap, they had to knock down the door immediately.Aarav and Peter's breathing was ragged as sweat dripped from their temples. In front of them, the bolts of the wooden door mounted with a broken padlock had begun to loosen."Is there a tool to break the lock?" asked Aarav between his labored breaths.Robert and Benzala immediately exchanged glances. Benzala, who found it first, asked Marcolin to carry Watson. In a hurry, Benzala grabbed an abandoned fire extinguisher.After bringing the canister to Aarav, Benzala didn't allow Aarav to try it alone. Benzala then held the canister tightly together with Aarav and Peter, Benzala's younger brother."One... two... break it!"On
"Aarav, what the hell is going on?!"Aarav didn't answer Benzala's question at all. After the video call was unilaterally switched off by William, Aarav felt his anger rise that very second. His mind couldn't stop imagining the worst possibilities.Aarav had no idea that William was secretly seeing Watson. Also, who knows how long William had been keeping Darius with Watson. Now, Aarav decided to leave Vito's house. Of course, Vito had already given the address of Leon-the author of the article about Seawolt Dante Company. But Aarav canceled his plan to go to the writer's house."Do you know why Darius can't pick up my calls?" asked Aarav when he was already in the car with Benzala and Robert.Benzala was preparing to fasten her seatbelt to her body. She looked curiously at Aarav."Did something happen to him?" guessed Benzala."Wiliam," Aarav said, pausing as his temper rose. "He came to Mr. Watson and kept him with Darius. I don't know when William came. But he was very anxious to
