Several times Bruce averted his eyes from looking at Shawn directly. Right now he was worried about the accusations reported by him. What if it turned out that Bruce couldn't prove what he reported? Of course, this would be a big problem because Shawn seemed to be serious with his threats. Bruce didn't want to get into a complicated matter, especially since he would lose face if he couldn't prove it. He thought, he needed to resolve this as soon as possible. He took a breath and tried to look elegant even though the cold sweat on his temples couldn't cover his worry. "Never mind, this is all a waste of my time." Everyone glanced at him. Shawn coldly looked at the man. Bruce needed to make an excuse since all the attention was now on him. "It's very inconvenient to report this to the police. You have to take care of this, you have to take care of that, it's all so long-winded. I'm a busy person. I need to leave as soon as possible." Harvey opened his eyes while watching Bruce
Shawn, who heard that, immediately looked at the woman who had just gotten out of the taxi. "Did you take money from your house? Five thousand dollars, ma'am?"Bruce's wife nodded. "It's true, I took it. That's my monthly spending money, right? I had to take Randall with me because it was quite a lot."Suddenly, Bruce glared in surprise. "Your monthly spending money? Who said that?"The woman immediately wrinkled her forehead. “Today is the day when you usually give me my shopping money. You used to put it on the table, of course I took it as usual and spent it. Why are you glaring like that, Bruce?"Bruce slapped his own forehead because he was so annoyed with his wife's behavior. "Fool, why did you take it? The monthly spending money is only 1500 dollars, I'll give it to you. However, the $5000 you took was supposed to be used to pay the workers in our family store. You ruined everything, Kate!"The woman glared and furrowed her brows. She didn't realize that the money was more impo
"Huh? All of Jerome's abilities increased by 10%? Is this a good thing? I don't see any difference in Jerome." Shawn thought as he glanced at Jerome who was holding a fork because his spaghetti carbonara had just arrived.[Ding!][New mission assigned to you!]Shawn gasped at the suddenness of the notification. Jerome even stopped chewing and glanced at Shawn.Jerome's hand seemed to be glued to the pasta. "What's wrong with you, Shawn? Are you surprised to see me eating like this? I haven't eaten well in a long time, okay? Bear with me this time."Shawn just smiled a little. Jerome had misunderstood Shawn's sudden reaction earlier.As Jerome continued to eat, Shawn refocused his ears to see what mission he was given.[Mission: Make subordinates strong!][Jerome is a loyal subordinate, but he has very little ability to help you solve problems.]Shawn raised one eyebrow. In his head he thought that what the system said was true. "Jerome will be instantly doomed if he goes on a mission
"You're crazy, Shawn. How can you do all that training and not sweat a lot?" Jerome was breathing hard. It was obvious that his shirt had gotten wet as if he had been thrown into a pool. He was sweating profusely because Shawn and the coach were pushing Jerome's body to the limit. "I don't know if I can still work at the restaurant tonight or not."Shawn chuckled slightly and patted Jerome's shoulder. "Sure! You just need to eat and drink to restore your energy and cut back on the carbs, or else you'll get sleepy easily."Jerome wrinkled his forehead. "This is more troublesome than I expected. I was planning on drinking coffee to keep my eyes open. What good is it if I drink coffee without sugar or creamer?"Jerome exhaled after grumbling like that. Shawn replied with a small smile. Jerome knew what that smile meant, no matter how much Jerome protested and complained about this, Jerome had no choice but to follow Shawn's advice.Jerome drank water from a mineral water bottle. The wate
Jerome's pupils fluttered when he said it, he also immediately averted his eyes, unwilling to look at Shawn.Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly. "You're scared, aren't you?"Jerome didn't answer immediately. He was speechless because he was ashamed to admit it. However, he also didn't want to give any sign that he was brave enough to face the challenge before him.Yes, people who like to pretend to be strong mostly act like this. Shawn could understand Jerome's attitude of trying to cover up his inability to speak his mind.Shawn seriously looked into Jerome's eyes. "Look at me, Jerome. Tell me, are you scared?"Jerome glanced at Shawn. He nodded slowly. "Of course I'm scared. You know how big they are, right? You also saw them at practice, right?When Shawn recalled the training, it turned out that Jerome was talking about them because Jerome was resting after running when he saw Tony and his friends training.Jerome pointed at Tony who was in the ring with one of his friends. "Shawn,
On the day of the match, Jerome sat in the corner with his eyes constantly fluttering looking at Tony. Tony in the front corner kept grinning and glaring at Jerome.He moved his lips slowly to signal a sentence. "You will die now!"Of course, this made Jerome flinch. He immediately averted his gaze from the bald man's eyes. This pressure was too much for Jerome who had only practiced fighting for a short time.Shawn then squatted in front of Jerome. "Why are you averting your eyes? Are you afraid?"Jerome looked at Shawn with a frown on his lips. "My punches are still very weak compared to that guy. I can't even follow your training moves well. How can I think positively now?"Shawn patted Jerome's shoulder. "You remember the rules, right? You only have to hit him once and it's over. Victory is yours."Woody, on the other hand, approached Tony. "How does it feel? The day you're going to kick that sprout's ass?"Tony shook his head. "Do you think this is fun? I'm told to beat up a rook
"What did this asshole say?" Woody glared at Shawn. Woody's other two friends were also surprised by what Shawn was doing.Shawn smiled and nodded happily. Finally Shawn could see the end of this match. However, Woody walked up to Shawn and gave him a sharp look. "What are you laughing at, bitch?"Shawn turned his head and squinted his eyes. "NPC, stay out of it!"Woody's forehead wrinkled. "NPC? Speak clearly, asshole. This match isn't over yet, your friend is down, it's time for the countdown! Referee! Quick countdown!"Shawn ignored Woody's shout. He climbed the ladder and got into the ring and looked sharply at Tony. "This match is over, Jerome wins."Tony opened his eyes wide. "Win you say? What's the win? The match is still on. Referee! Quick countdown! The sprouts are falling, do your job as referee!"The referee shook his head. Shawn himself smiled when he saw Tony's annoyed face. "Do you think the referee has forgotten the rules of our game today? You remember, right?"The re
A few days ago Shawn came to a realtor. He talked to one of the sellers there."Paid in cash?" The home seller smiled broadly at Shawn. All his teeth were almost visible and his eyes were sparkling. He had no idea that the person in front of him would make an offer that excited him so much.Shawn nodded. "Yes. Only 20 million dollars, right?"The house seller was even more surprised and opened his eyes wide when he heard the word 'only' from Shawn's mouth. The person who said the word 'only' for such a fantastic amount of money was certainly not a random person. He thought that Shawn must be a big businessman to think that 20 million dollars was such a small amount of money. "Oh, sure! Even though this house is only 20 million dollars, you will get all kinds of conveniences, including paperwork."Shawn smiled and nodded while holding his chin. "Sounds good to me. In that case, I'd like the title to be written Rachel Doves."The home seller flinched slightly at the name Shawn had just
