"Ah... my gown..." Verena still felt the heat coming out of her body. She lamented the torn dress on the table. Until now Verena could only sit limply in the living room while Rachel was beside her. Meanwhile, Shawn was in the kitchen making a Cappuccino for his mother-in-law. Sometimes, one needs something hot and sweet enough to relax. Shawn then brought the drink and placed it in front of Verena. "Drink up, Mom. Calm yourself down." Shawn said softly. However, even though he was being gentle, Verena still took it as an insult. Verena was particularly sensitive this time because in addition to all her accusations against Shawn not being proven, she was having a very bad time. "Don't be so nice to me, Shawn. You've really played me. Look, Norman left me alone here because of you." Rachel stroked her mother's back. "Calm down, mom. Shawn and I meant no harm to you." Shawn joined her on the couch. "We just wanted to give you a nice welcome, mom." Verena shook her head. "What
Rachel exhaled as she turned to Shawn. "You're so careless, Shawn. You might regret it later. My mom is a shopaholic when it comes to clothes. You could have lost all that money you didn't know you had." The beautiful woman didn't know whether to be angry with Shawn or not. Shawn's seemingly manipulative behavior earlier to save her pride from Norman now seemed wasted because Shawn was taking Verena to Clannys store to shop for clothes. What was the point of what he did earlier if he had to lose money again by Verena? Even though Verena had gone out of her way to bring down Shawn's self-esteem, and had even told Shawn to divorce Rachel. Didn't Shawn feel anything when he was threatened like that? He should have been able to teach Verena a little lesson so that she wouldn't be like that to him again. Verena glanced at Rachel with furrowed brows. "What are you talking about, Rachel? It's a common thing for a son-in-law to make his mother-in-law happy, isn't it? Why are you forbiddi
[Ding!][Ding!][Ding!]The loud siren-like notification sound continued to play, making Shawn's ears hurt as he closed his eyes. Just as he was about to enter dreamland, he was immediately startled by the loud sound."Damn... I'm so tired." Shawn complained as he opened his eyes slowly. However, his eyes immediately opened wide when he saw the writing in front of him. "What is this?!"[Warning! Danger!][Warning! Danger!]]Shawn glared at the red screen in front of him. He tried to catch his breath as he also heard some noises outside. "System, what's going on?"[Warning! You are in danger!][Some mysterious people broke into your house and intend to harm you and your wife. They are carrying sharp weapons to do painful things to you.][Number of intruders: 4 people.]Shawn glanced around. He tried to catch his breath and also concentrated on sensing if they were close. When Shawn closed his eyes, he softly heard the scraping of feet near his window. Which meant they were very close.
The man who had been kicked in the face by Shawn got up. He saw that his three friends were helpless and some were even badly injured. Feeling threatened, he pulled out a stun gun. "Damn it! Take this, you monster!"Shawn turned his head towards the man. However, Shawn had already been shot with the stun gun. Shawn's body immediately shook with electricity and the man burst out laughing. Rachel screamed in terror when she saw it.A moment later Shawn's body fell to the ground. The man then approached Shawn's body and glared at it. "You've finally fallen. Your vaporized body and the red smoke around your body make me cringe, you monster!"The man then kicked Shawn's body once to vent his emotions. Then he glanced at Rachel. "Your turn..."Rachel's heart was racing like it was going to explode. Rachel tried to back away but her back was now against the wall. "Get away! Get away from me!"The man chuckled while slowly trying to reach Rachel's body. His laughter was very annoying to Rache
"Why are you so quiet, Rachel? You didn't eat it?" Shawn asked Rachel that question. She looked lost in thought as she held her spoon and tapped it against the porridge Shawn had made.Rachel was still feeling the effects of the trauma from last night. She had no appetite for food. Shawn was a little worried about this.Shawn called out to her again. "Rachel, are you okay?"Rachel gasped when she realized that Shawn had called her several times. "Oh Shawn, did you call me?"Shawn was a little worried. This was the first time he had seen Rachel like this. Last night's incident must have scared her so much that she lost her concentration. Shawn just smiled in response to Rachel. "Rachel, you'll be fine. You can take the day off from work. I'll take care of you. Now, eat quietly. Your body needs energy."Rachel smiled bitterly. She nodded and then tried to eat the porridge. For some reason, the taste of the porridge became bland and even sour in Rachel's mouth. She tried to crush it and
Shawn furrowed his brow and was about to defend Rachel, but Rachel came forward and slapped the woman back. Shawn was surprised by this because he had been scared before, but suddenly Rachel could do something like this.The woman held her red cheeks. Then she glanced at Rachel vengefully. "Rachel, you bitch..."Shawn saw that the woman was about to hurt Rachel again. Shawn quickly pulled Rachel behind her so that she was now facing Shawn's body. "You hurt Rachel first. I can assure you that you will pay the price."The woman's husband rushed forward and pushed Shawn's body. However, Shawn's body did not budge because it was stronger than an ordinary human.The man was a little surprised, but he groaned angrily after doing so. "What do you know, new guy? Get out the way. It’s family business."The woman glared while folding her arms in front of her chest. In her head she thought. "What can this pitiful man do? He comes from a social status that often talks out of turn. His threats th
"I'm going to work, Shawn." Rachel stood up with her bag. She looked at the clock in her hand. Today she was wearing sunglasses, perhaps she would have an event outside. It had been a few days since the attack, Shawn felt that Rachel was recovering, so he let her go to work. "Want me to take you to the office?" Rachel shook her head. "I can do it myself. Oh yeah, you need to find something else to do. Don't just stay at home daydreaming." Shawn raised one eyebrow. It seemed that Rachel was also starting to dislike Shawn's useless activities at home. The work at Gold K was always over quickly, and could even be done remotely. Shawn should be doing something else. Rachel walked quickly to the exit. "I'm leaving." Shawn just nodded as his wife walked out the door. Rachel looked energetic today, Shawn didn't need to worry about her. Instead, Shawn should worry about himself. All this time, the money Shawn earned depended on the missions given by the system. While the salary fro
Regis approached them with a smile. "Hi everyone, how are you?"The young men turned to Regis and frowned. They had only seen Regis once before and were quite surprised by his neat appearance, unlike most people who came to the cafe to look more funky. The young people nodded, they smiled hesitantly at Regis. However, Regis without hesitation approached and took out something from his wallet. "Hi, I'm Regis and this is my business card."The young people took it and looked at Regis' business card with the company name still blank. One of them frowned. "Do you need to see us, sir?"Although they knew that Regis looked to be in his early 20s, they felt a great aura from Regis that made them feel the need to respect him.Regis then patted his hand once. "Well, I have an interesting offer for you guys. I'm a person who works at a start-up agency company. You are all lucky people, because you were able to take part in the selection at our agency. I guarantee that you will become famous an
