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
"Shawn, don't joke around!" Rachel looked at Shawn without blinking. Shawn's words really didn't seem funny at all, even though it was just a joke. Plus, Shawn only responded with a smile. "Shawn! I want you to tell me the truth."Shawn nodded. "Yes, I bought this house. It's worth 20 million dollars."Rachel shook her head. She didn't understand Shawn's behavior this time. Usually Shawn would come out with something unexpected if he was having trouble with someone else, but this time he acted alone. This was quite awkward for Rachel.Shawn raised his eyebrows. "I bought this house and the title is in your name, Rachel."Rachel's eyes opened wide. Her mouth was so aghast that she forgot to close it. "Huh?"Shawn chuckled slightly at Rachel's expression. It was a facial expression that Shawn rarely saw. "Yes, I bought this house for you."Rachel lowered her head, not believing Shawn's words. "Shawn, are you serious? You're joking too much this time."Shawn snapped his fingers again. A
"Our chef did a good job this time. The breakfast was very good." Verena Doves placed her spoon and fork on the plate in a closed position. She finished her breakfast quickly and smiled. It seemed like she really enjoyed the taste of their chef's cooking that day. "Rico, you need to make the chefs maintain the quality." Rico just gave a small nod, not paying much attention to his wife. He was still busy finishing his breakfast. Verena frowned a little as her husband didn't give her a second glance. So she turned to Rachel. "Honey, you liked the breakfast this morning, right?" Rachel did not immediately answer her mother's question, she instead glanced at Shawn with a slightly doubtful face. Shawn himself turned to Rachel and nodded slightly. Verena began to get suspicious of the two of them giving each other codes. She narrowed her eyes slightly. "What are you two hiding?" Rachel sighed to calm her down a bit. "Mom, we're moving out of this house." Verena immediately opened
"911! Hello! There's been an accident here! A car has crashed and flipped over. Hurry to Carmeillis, before it explodes!" Someone was calling frantically. Shawn was silent as he clenched his teeth and stared at the system's blue screen. He was in a dilemma with the choices the system gave him. Risking his life was something Shawn had never done before. However, the system now wanted him to do it. "You're crazy, system! Do you want me to die?" The system didn't respond and that made Shawn even more annoyed. This was a very annoying thing. "You're quiet again, system? What happens if I refuse this mission? Nothing bad will happen, right?" [Ding!] [Half the treasure you've collected will be lost. And other people's trust in you will be lost. You will become enemies with those people.] Shawn grinned slightly. "Just like that?" [Ding!] [The trust of others could be your wife or your subordinates. Your treasure is half gone and you need to start over. Be careful in choosing.]
"Damn... the fire is getting bigger!" Shawn started sweating as he saw the flames in the car engine getting bigger and the puddle of gasoline getting closer to him.Shawn pulled the man's body out of the car. "You're still sleeping when we don't have time!"When Shawn had managed to get him out, he carried the man. Shawn looked at the puddle of gasoline that was flowing towards the fire. It turned out that it was just a little further away, less than 20 centimeters away. Shawn glared in panic.[Ding!][Your life is in danger! You could lose your life in :][5...][4...]"Damn it!" Shawn immediately turned around and ran as fast as he could. However, only about 10 meters into his run, the puddle of gasoline touched a lick of flame.Quickly, the fire spread and entered the gas tank. Instantly, the car exploded with a huge bang. Shawn was knocked off his feet by the shockwave of the explosion, and he fell while protecting the head of the person he was carrying with his hands.Everyone wh
