"I find this house quite cozy and peaceful." Rachel breathed in the morning air on the balcony of her room. After returning from work yesterday, Rachel and Shawn had moved into their new home with a few belongings. The rest of their belongings would be delivered by the servants later. Rachel herself really enjoyed the atmosphere in her new home. It was quieter and also had a nice view from the balcony.At that moment, Shawn was taking a shower in the bathroom, while Rachel was all dressed up to go to work. However, she was reluctant to leave right away because she had seen Shawn come home yesterday with a bandaged hand. "Did Shawn do something again?"Rachel was a little skeptical, as she knew Shawn had some ability to fight. She was a little worried that Shawn would get into a fight and cause trouble out there.A moment later Shawn came out of the bathroom. As Shawn was walking, Rachel could see that he had burns on his hands. She immediately folded her arms across her chest. "Can y
Shawn knew that dealing with a criminal case like this would be very dangerous. Not only for Shawn himself, but also for Rachel as the person closest to Shawn at the moment.After all, this was someone else's family matter, and Shawn shouldn't have interfered. Does the system not understand the privacy and business of each person? Why would the system make Shawn want to help Regis, whom Shawn had clearly just met?Shawn tried to look at the options available to him, wishing that there was an option to refuse.[Make your choice:][Yes : You have to help Regis get out of the trouble his family has caused him. Regis will be very grateful to you. You will get '???' as a reward. If you fail to do so, not only will Regis be harmed, but you will also become the target of the evil Dumas family members. Perhaps your loved ones will be targeted as well.][No : You will lose things you can't imagine. '???' (no explanation yet)]Shawn began to worry about the explanation of the choice given by th
Regis sipped the hot coffee that Shawn had previously provided for him. At the veranda, Regis was with Harold and another bodyguard, Isaac. Regis seemed inclined to accept Shawn's offer of an 18% stake in the Bio Energy company.18% of the shares is certainly a huge amount, with that many shares it would be enough to pay for a meal at a restaurant every day and also buy a luxury car every year. However, such a large share is certainly not worth a life.Regis exhaled. "Of course Mr. Shawn will ask for more, I had forgotten that this woman was his wife."Harold glanced at Regis. "Are you referring to the woman who opened the door, young master?"Regis nodded. Harold immediately understood what Regis meant. That woman was Rachel Doves, one of the wealthy families in Yihua City. Of course, her husband Shawn wouldn't be tempted by a mere 10% share offer.Regis may have been a little presumptuous to stay with a newly married couple, but Regis also needed to be around Shawn right now. That's
"There's something strange about them..." Shawn held his forehead. His eyebrows knitted together and he closed his eyes to think about his interactions with Regis and his guards. Shawn was sure he had missed something while he was talking to them.Shawn then took a deep breath and exhaled. He was starting to make some connections from the information he had been able to glean from his interactions with Regis. Suddenly Shawn opened his eyes wide realizing something. "Could it be..."Shawn opened the door to his room and walked through the room where Regis was resting. He saw his two bodyguards at the door, standing at attention with piercing eyes.Shawn nodded. "So they guard him like this."Shawn finally got to know a bit about how Regis was guarded. People from outside would have a hard time getting in because of these two guards. Even if someone tried to enter, Shawn would know first because Shawn's ears and intuition had improved more than before.Harold glanced at Shawn who had be
"What? Don't say nonsense, Mr. Shawn!" Harold had to hold his breath because he couldn't believe Shawn's words. Harold turned to Regis and Regis nodded slowly.Harold felt confused by this situation. "Isaac, did you really do that?"Isaac didn't answer. He grinned in pain and averted his eyes from Harold.Harold who was not satisfied with that approached Isaac who was still being held by Shawn and shouted loudly. "Say something, Isaac! Do you really want to kill Young Master, huh? Use your mouth and answer me now!"Isaac still wouldn't look at Harold, but he answered loudly. "Yes, I did it, Harold!"Harold immediately furrowed his brows and opened his eyes wide. "How could you even do something like this, Isaac! Have you forgotten that we swore allegiance to Young Master's parents to take care of him? We've taken care of Master Regis from childhood to adulthood like now. Are you going to throw away your pride? Where is your loyalty oath?"Isaac shouted back. "I had to do it, Harold! I
"You asshole, Isaac!" Harold slapped Isaac very hard. He poured all his emotions into that slap. "You'd hide something like that and even try to help kill Master Regis. Where did you put your brain, huh? Do you still deserve to be called human? Aren't you ashamed of your son when he finds out his father is a murderer?"Isaac averted his eyes and just looked down. He was speechless because he had nothing to say.Harold himself was getting annoyed. He slapped Isaac's face again until Isaac's mouth was bleeding. "Answer me, damn it! You're such a disappointment! Don't you remember how Master Regis treated us? He thinks of us as the people he trusts the most, thinks of us as brothers. And you... what kind of brother would want to kill his own brother, huh? Answer me, asshole!"Harold's emotions were running high, but Isaac remained silent and resigned as Harold slapped and hit him several times. There was no screaming or moaning from Isaac at all. He only showed a sad face until now.Feel
"Huh? Are you going to slander me and my husband now? You shameless bastard! Who else do you think is in your family besides us?" Denise glared.Regis exhaled and shook his head. "If I could choose, I wouldn't want an uncle and aunt like you."Denise's eyebrows immediately furrowed. "Insolent..."Chad's blood immediately rose. He immediately approached behind the bars. "Watch your mouth, Regis! You're a useless kid! Don't know what's in it for you. We were never looking for trouble. You said we wanted to kill you, then had the police arrest us on vacation. Can't you see your aunt is still wearing a bikini right now? You really have no brains!"Regis glanced at his aunt. It was true that Denise was only wearing a bikini and her body was covered by a brown police jacket. Denise didn't have time to wear clothes because she was arrested while sunbathing. Denise held on to her jacket tightly, as there were several men in the cell who were always looking at her body. "Get us out of here, R
"Oh! They're back." Shawn saw Regis and Harold returning to the front room. However, Regis immediately gave a hand gesture to Shawn to wait for a moment because Regis wanted to go to the toilet first.Shawn nodded. Shawn finally sat there while folding his arms in front of his chest. He looked at the atmosphere in the Yihua city police station. He slightly remembered that he was here to help Jerome when he was accused of stealing 5000 dollars. Shawn had gotten involved because the system told him that Jerome was in danger. It was friendship that drove Shawn to do what he could to help Jerome.However, for now Shawn was really doing this mission out of a great sense of compulsion, especially since the choice on the system had a huge risk and with a reward amount that could be small if Shawn did not bid on the amount of shares from Regis' Bio Energy company.Shawn smiled and shook his head. "Damn system... It's becoming more and more obvious that you want to use me to do something. None
