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
"I can finally settle down a bit. No mother-in-law talk every morning and no missions. I'm a little tired from yesterday's mission." Shawn stretched his body a little after returning from the police station. He was quite tired from the activities earlier because the process was quite long.Shawn was also angry with Rachel because there was almost a murder in this house because of Shawn allowing Regis to live here. However, it was all over and everything was safe. Regis returned home without any problems.Although the reward Shawn got was only shares, there was something unexpected that he got now, a new subordinate. The system had previously said that Shawn could move up if he could have 4 subordinates. At that time, the system gave a warning that Shawn should not choose his own subordinates because it could be detrimental to Shawn himself. Shawn was confused why the system told him to risk his life, it was only to get a subordinate who was appropriate according to the system itself.
Shawn looked at the man's face. Shawn knew exactly who this man was. He was Rachel's cousin, Norman Doves. Rachel's male cousin who was the same age as Rachel. At Shawn and Rachel's wedding, he came only briefly and then left without congratulating her. He didn't seem to like Shawn from the start. Maybe he even collided with him on purpose. The look in his eyes was very cynical towards Shawn, making Shawn feel annoyed. Finally, Shawn ignored the man and preferred not to respond to what Norman said. Shawn walked past Norman first without even looking at him. Norman who felt neglected immediately stopped Shawn's steps by holding his shoulders. "How rude! Is this how you treat members of the Doves family?" Shawn caught his breath and then turned to Norman. "Do you need something from me?" Norman grinned sarcastically. "How can you confidently walk into this place. This is the Doves family company that has been built three decades ago. A lowly neophyte like you should be ashamed
