"Oh, they chose a quiet place." Shawn stared at the GPS screen after a tracker gave the location of Lisa and John's abduction. It turned out to be an old building on the other side of the forest. It was a location north of the city of Yihua. Since there were no settlements there and only a few vacant lots in the former lumber mill, it was the perfect location for some criminals to hide. Josh and Kane's men were smart enough to choose that place because there were rarely any eyes to see. An unfamiliar number called Shawn and Shawn answered it immediately. "Hello?" "Young Master, I am Dio, the one who will help you. We will head to the location right now and will wait for you about 200 meters in front of the building so that we can ambush you quietly." Shawn was quite impressed with this guy. He was able to locate the kidnapper by accessing CCTV on the street and tracking the license plate of the car carrying Lisa and John. If Shawn had done it himself, it would have taken a long t
Shawn stood there. His eyes were sharp as he looked at Jeremy Kane who was lifting the baseball bat. Jeremy glared at the man.Shawn stepped inside and looked at the few people standing around looking down on him because they were bigger than he was.Jeremy pressed his mouth shut. "Look at that stupid face. Who are you?"Shawn looked the man up and down. He was Jeremy Kane, the father of Hugh Kane. One of the two men Shawn had broken his leg with. However, Shawn had no desire to answer the man's questions. His hand holding the metal baseball bat and the battered faces of his adoptive parents gave away a lot of information that this was the man who had tortured Lisa and John.Lisa shouted in a trembling voice. "Shawn, you've come. What have you done to this man's son? Look at what happened, you got us involved with your problem and even we had to get beat up like this."Shawn’s father coughed and spoke up. "You shouldn't have brought us into your problem. Hurry up and apologize to this
Jeremy slowly turned his head toward the thrown object, which turned out to be the body of the person who attacked Shawn earlier. The huge body was thrown so far that it threatened the wall by Shawn with just one punch.Jeremy shuddered. Many questions arose in his mind. "What happened? How could that person be thrown away immediately? Ordinary human strength should be impossible to do such a thing."When Jeremy looked at Shawn, he saw Shawn's slightly smoking fist. It was as if Shawn had done something with his fist.Suddenly, everyone who was about to attack Shawn stopped moving. They gulped because they knew what was really going on.The leader of them was stunned. "No way... that blow was so precise."From what he could see, Shawn executed a perfect hook shot. The hook hit the liver of the cell's opponent, so he was knocked unconscious because a blow to the liver can make it difficult for people to breathe. If only his friend wasn't a trained person, that punch would have killed h
“Aaahh...! Bastard! My hand is broken! My hand is broken!” Jeremy screamed while whining and crying. However, he couldn't move because his arm would hurt if he moved his body. Shawn looked coldly at Jeremy who looked back.Shawn then said coldly with a slight smirk. “Oh? A hand? I thought this was just another piece of societal garbage that could only torment others.”Jeremy glared. “Huh? What are you saying? You started it first! You tortured my son!”Shawn tilted his head. “Hugh Kane? You don't even have the right to say that if you know what your son did to me.”Jeremy frowned. “Huh?”Before Jeremy could say anything, Shawn twisted Jeremy's body and pushed him backward.Jeremy was in excruciating pain. He screamed and cried. “Asshole! Asshole! I'm going to kill you!”As Shawn stepped closer, Jeremy unconsciously stepped back slowly. Until he tripped over the curved baseball bat.Jeremy immediately picked it up and with one hand he tried to hit Shawn with it again. Shawn easily resi
“Thank you, Grandpa.” Shawn said these words to Darius who was sitting in the living room. It took a while to get into this huge house. In fact, this house was twice as big as the one Shawn owned.As the owner of several multinational companies, a house like this was fairly normal for Darius. Some of the houses he owned were even nicer, but this was the first house he owned, so he stayed there.Darius stood up, he approached Shawn with a smile. Then he grabbed Shawn's right shoulder. “Why are you thankful?”Shawn felt the warmth in that palm. Shawn smiled a little. “You helped me save someone else, Grandpa. I thank you for that. Your bodyguards all have great fighting skills.”Darius glanced slightly at the exit. He could see the slight figure of Dio standing behind the door. The man gave Darius the code that he didn't use a gun at all and everything ended well.Darius nodded. “You put yourself in harm's way again to save someone else, Shawn. You really look like me when I was younge
“Aw... shit...” Shawn let out a long sigh and pressed his cheek against the table. This was the umpteenth time he had cursed like this.Alex was holding a book and looking at the contents with his glasses. He was quite surprised by Shawn's depressed behavior. “You've uttered curse words several times, Young Master. That's not something good for an old man like me to hear. In fact, you always curse after I give you an appraisal for your work.”Shawn glanced at Alex. The old man's eyes were intense on Shawn. It was as if he was drawing a line between the powerful and the powerless.Alex put the book down on the table. “You still have plenty of time to study. Or, perhaps you'd like to have some hot tea while I wait for your selective enthusiasm?”Shawn was stunned. He immediately sat up straight. Shawn did not expect to get sarcasm from this old man. However, Shawn's focus turned to the blue screen that appeared in front of his face.[Ding!][You didn't get a perfect score again.][Punis
“What's wrong?” Shawn held his head as he looked down. His head felt like something was pressing on it from behind. The more Shawn thought about it, the more Shawn felt that he was still at a dead end.Alex, even though he was a waiter, had an uncanny precision. He seemed to be able to see the smallest mistakes in the tasks Shawn was doing. Shawn had been electrocuted about 15 times out of the 15 tasks the man had given him.For Shawn, who had always lived by choice towards a low social status, it was difficult to adapt to the work of people who were wealthy. Even learning to be an heir like this became very difficult for him.Shawn felt his body begin to ache and stiffen. “Even though I tried everything I could, Alex never acknowledged that my work was good. He didn't even give me a hint.”He took a deep breath. Shawn knew that he would be able to get Alex's recognition one day. However, he needed to take a break to cool off. Thinking and studying so much under pressure like this cou
Alex took the document. What kind of report did Shawn make? Alex was also curious. Alex tried to lift the document and frowned. He felt that the document weighed more than the report Shawn had made before.Alex glanced at Shawn. “Young Master, you seem to be doing things differently this time.”With slightly tired eyes, Shawn nodded. He was indeed doing it a little differently this time. Shawn knew all too well that a different process would lead to a different result, and everything had to start from a fixed premise.Shawn realized that he was fixated on the idea that he was nothing special, the result of a lifetime of living with the poor and being used as a cash cow by them. A person in such a state would not have freedom of thought and would tend to be aimless. After meeting Darius in the park, Shawn knew that the problem was not with his job, but with his head.Now Shawn kept looking at Alex because he wanted to know if his thoughts this time with a different perspective would p
