[SYSTEM ALERT!][TIME REMAINING][ 6:34:39 ][Time keeps running! You have seven hours left now. Please complete the mission given or you will carry out the punishment given by the system."In front of the reflection of the club's public bathroom mirror, Aarav reads the warning description of the system once it activates. Aarav took a deep breath. Moments ago, he had indeed met Valkery. But no conversation took place between the two of them.Aarav didn't get to approach Valkery for small talk. Because Valkery really seemed to be avoiding him—or most likely, Aarav guessed, the VVIP guests were keeping their distance from guests from other classes."But why did he say familiar with me?" muttered Aarav thinking about the last words from Valkery.On the other hand, Aarav is worried about the time left to complete his mission. This is not an easy mission. Even Aarav felt such a strong barrier between the VVIP class and the other c
"Mr Aarav, what are you doing now?"Aarav was taken aback when he got a tap on his shoulder. For a split second, Aarav was too surprised to witness the sight of Ella kissing another man on the lips. Even after turning his head to Marcolin—who had been beside him for some time, his facial expression was still that of a dazed person."Marcolin," Aarav's voice was low, it was the second it hit him, "don't stand there!"Immediately Aarav pulled Marcolin's body closer. At the same time Ella, slightly aware that someone was watching her, turned her head.Luckily Aarav and Marcolin had already hidden behind the wall. Aarav knew that Ella had already turned her head towards him just as he was tugging at Marcolin."What happened, sir?" he asked.Aarav put his index finger on his own lips. "Shhh, Ella. Over there with another guy."Marcolin's brows furrowed in confusion. Without warning, he was so curious, Marcolin immediately took three steps forward to get out from behind the wall.Marcolin's
The Golden VVIP room was more luxurious than Aarav had imagined.While inside, Aarav counted about twelve people gathered—fifteen if you include Valkery and his two personal bodyguards. The size of the room which is equivalent to the width of one non-storey house. Besides there is a gathering spot in the middle where there is a sofa stretched very long to form the letter L, there is a jacuzzi near the corner of the room.Three women were seen wearing bikinis soaking in the jacuzzi with four men. They all make out with each other. One couple—a man with two women on his right and left were kissing so ferociously.On the right side there is a bathroom with frosted glass. A staircase leading to the floor above the bathroom looks elegant. Who knows what is on the top floor which is only half the width of this room.Other VVIP guests were on the sofa or enjoying the city view through wide windows. Its position near the jacuzzi. Aarav could only contain his shock as he watched everyone here
"Kate, what happened to that woman?"There is Kate watching from the door of this Golden VVIP room. Aarav could very well have guessed that Ella's coming to this room was due to being randomly selected to be the hostess of the VVIP guests.As Aarav recalled, when he accidentally saw Ella at this club for the first time, he saw Ella with Jacob—if Aarav didn't spell the name wrong. So where had Jacob gone to make Ella here?"You know, doing business deals," Kate replied casually as she took a sip of her cigarette butt. His gaze was intently watching Ella. "In the women's business, there are two types of transactions that are carried out. First, they can choose women at random from among general visitors and other VIP guests.Second, they can leave it to us to choose another woman to bring to the client's whereabouts. What happened to that woman was the first thing. The one who ordered was the VVIP guest."That's why Ella was brought to this
[YOUR ACCOUNT HAS RECEIVED A TRANSFER OF $60,000,000][YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE: $175,675,000]"What? No! I paid this woman to keep me company for four hours! Now that it's only been two hours, why should I give it to her?"There has been an argument in the Golden VVIP room ever since Kate told Wiliam, the one who ordered Ella, to give Ella to Aarav. William could not accept and refused repeatedly. But Kate remains adamant to stand up for Aarav.While on the long sofa, beside Valkery, Aarav only witnessed the sight of Kate and William arguing. Aarav doesn't say anything at all. But there was satisfaction in his heart because this was the first time he felt being on the VVIP couch, having someone defend him.'If I had had so much money a long time ago I would have felt this way' Aarav thought at the time."Hey, for the sake of carrying out the plan so that I can become your brand ambassador, are you doing this?" asked Valkery with a chuckle at the end of the sentence.Aarav turned his head
Really Aarav had absolutely no intention of getting into an argument with William. The image of William's suspicious face still lingers in Aarav's brain until now. For some reason, he felt really uncomfortable every time he remembered how the conversation he and William had had a few moments ago.On the other hand, Aarav now regretted that he had provoked Wiliam's curiosity. So far, he has always avoided problems with the elites. Because Aarav realizes that his abilities are far too far to be able to deal with the power of all of them.Now Aarav actually involves himself in trouble in front of the guests of the Golden VVIP room. What if they suddenly find out about it?"Ah, Aarav. Sometimes you act really stupid," muttered Aarav grumbling while leaning his back on the sofa.Now Aarav is on the hotel sofa which he booked a while ago. Aarav had sent Kate his address so he could meet Zanhara in person.Until now Zanhara had not come. Meanwhile, Aarav is still struggling with unrest due t
Aarav's whole body froze after hearing Zanhara's words. Especially seeing the cynical grin on Zanhara's face that seemed to indicate that the woman knew him.Aarav took a few steps towards Zanhara who had put Ella's body on the couch. Even Aarav didn't realize at all that Ella's condition at that time was very weak, drunk and under the influence of GHB drugs. Aarav's only focus right now was Zanhara who took off his mask completely while groaning from the heat."Explain to me, what do you mean?" asked Aarav with urgency and glare at Zanhara.Seeing Aarav who was suddenly beside him and showing threatening eyes made Zanhara take two steps back. Zanhara looked at Aarav strangely."Wait, why are you suddenly approaching me like that Mr. Aarav?" Zanhara sounded uncomfortable as Aarav approached her, his eyes wary.Aarav laughs blankly. Instead of backing away thinking that Zanhara knew him, on a spur of anxiety, Aarav stepped closer once more. After his conversation with William a few mom
It's like digging up old wounds.Aarav's lamborghini had stopped in front of the gate of the Northlay Family's mansion. While waiting for the post guard to come out of the waiting post near the gate, Aarav notices the mansion building that is faintly visible from where he is.The memory of Aarav's last time with the Northlays suddenly replayed in his mind. Aarav, with one hand resting on his chin, gritted his teeth as anger welled up in his chest.He didn't think so. In this mansion, Aarav was never treated like a useful human being by the Northlay Family. But now Aarav comes driving a lamborghini. The situation is completely opposite in just a matter of weeks.Aarav is now guessing. How would the Northlay family react if he came in a Lamborghini? Will it be any different than when Aarav had nothing?Knock! Knock! Knock!The postal clerk was already tapping on the driver's side window. Aarav snapped out of his reverie, shifting his gaze to the postman who looked curious.Then Aarav im
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

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
