“Are you sure, Young Master? Lord Darius has never been to a party like this.” Alex saw Shawn's eyes through the front mirror of the car. The Lamborghini had just pulled up in front of the party venue. Shawn was dressed neatly in purple and wearing white gloves.Shawn looked calmly at Alex's face through the rearview mirror. He gave a mysterious little smile. “Don't I deserve a little party time, Alex?”Alex responded to the smile with a slight narrowing of his eyes. He took a breath and let it out. “That's not what I meant, Young Master. Even someone like you would rather be at home with Lady Rachel than attend a party like this. However, now that I know who is organizing this party, I can understand that you have your own agenda.”Shawn looked up slightly and looked out the window. He could see that there was a crowd there, looking around and guessing who was in the blue Lamborghini. “You're right, Alex. I have my own agenda. That's why I don't want you or the bodyguards to follow m
“This race is no ordinary race. Everyone in this room is eligible. It's a race to guess the name and year the wine was made! And for the one person who makes it to the end, he or she gets a prize.” Christopher said with excitement. He seemed to be very good at getting people to move in the way he wanted.Evidently, everyone here was cheering with excitement. They seemed hypnotized by what Christopher was saying.“This will definitely be exciting! That young man has good taste!”“What kind of gift will that person give?”“I don't know, is that important?”Shawn could hear the excited chatter constantly. In this entire room, no one was objecting to the competition. At least, that's what Shawn could hear.Shawn held his chin. “Can I use this?”Christopher brought the microphone back to his mouth. “Who wants to be a participant? Please raise your hand!”Christopher shouted excitedly. Almost everyone raised their hands happily. They smiled happily when Christopher told them to.Then, Shawn
“And, the other person who answered correctly is Mr. Shawn Hubert!” Mr. Houdin shouted out loud. Everyone applauded in awe. It turned out that out of all the people, only two could answer correctly.Mr. Houdin smiled and nodded. “Both of them answered Shipwrecked Hideseek, which was made in 1939. A treasure found in 1991. It was made during the first world war. The taste is very authentic and if it has a sweet after taste.”Everyone gawked at the explanation. They couldn't believe that they had just drunk a wine that cost millions of dollars. Apparently, Christopher didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money on this game.Freya took the microphone again. She cheerfully called out to the floaters carrying the trolleys. “For round two! Don't lose. This is a great wine! Take a guess and let Mr. Houdin judge.”People were now looking at him more carefully. They no longer wanted to waste the opportunity to enjoy expensive wine. They slowly swirled the wine glass, confirming the viscosity. Th
The party resumed. The piano music played again and food and drinks were served to the guests. They were having fun again by chatting with the people who were there. Some of them couldn't drink anymore and ended up holding on to the chairs as they started to lose their balance.“Ah! I've had enough of this drink. That wine guessing competition has drained all my consciousness. It's making me dizzy!”In such a state, Shawn returned to his mission. He needed to find the whereabouts of Andy Jullian. The man who could heal in one year. Such a thing was certainly something that was highly improbable if thought about logically. Shawn needed to analyze deeply so that he could find out if there was a system in place that would allow Andy to become like that.Shawn saw Andy chatting with some people at the party. Shawn then walked up to him. Then Shawn held his hand. With a smile, Shawn said to the people who were chatting with Andy. “I'll borrow Andy for a while.”Andy confusedly followed Sha
“There's nothing there.” With a slightly tense face Andy shook his head. The thing Shawn was pointing at was a wall with a large painting of Monalisa. Shawn glanced at Andy calmly. “Why are you still acting like this to me, Andy. Do you really want to trick me?”Andy realized that his face was too tense. He paused and inhaled. “What do you mean deceive? You yourself invited me to talk business. I told you that it would be a secret from my family. You don't have to get in on the secret.”Shawn held his hair. “A secret, huh? Aren't you keeping secrets behind your back too?”Shawn then walked towards the Monalisa painting. Andy nervously blocked Shawn. “There's nothing there--”When Andy was about to hold Shawn back, Shawn pushed Andy's body to the side. Andy couldn't resist the push, so he was knocked out of the way and his body hit the wall but not hard. “Hey! You shouldn't have been so rude to me!”Shawn ignored Andy's shout. His eyes were fixed on the Monalisa painting. Shawn looked
“You...” Chris glanced with wide-open eyes at Shawn. His body became very hot and he felt his chest burning. The things Shawn said made his eyes tremble and it was difficult to speak. “You... how come?”Shawn who saw that reaction immediately understood that Chris was the most likely person to have the system. With that fact in mind, Shawn grinned again to provoke Chris.Shawn then let go of the hand on Chris's shoulder. “Yeah, yeah, I know how you feel, Chris. You lost at your own game. How's that? I'm smarter than you, right?”Suddenly Chris felt very humiliated. He turned to Shawn with his eyes bulging red. “What did you say?”Shawn chuckled again. “Like you said, I'm smarter than you. So, don't act like you're superior to me. You're just someone who will be beneath me. Do you think you can beat me?”Chris then took a deep breath, he wanted to calm himself down. It turned out that he had underestimated Shawn, even though Shawn had a very sharp precision. As he looked at Shawn, all
Shawn... it turns out he's hiding something.” Chris was furious about what had happened. His heart was racing and his face looked red. He couldn't accept what had just happened. Chris picked up another glass and slammed it down. Andy was very confused to see his friend like that. He tried to hold Chris's hand. “Hey, stop it! You're overreacting! What the hell were you thinking? You heard him, right? He just wants the secret of the medicine that cured me!” Chris struggled, he let go of Andy's hand and pushed him down. “Shut up, Andy, leave me alone for a while.” Unexpectedly, Andy immediately sat still after listening to Chris' command. He was like an obedient dog that listened to everything Chris said. He kept his mouth shut and just looked at Chris who was angry while destroying things in the room. Chris' eyes were red. He glanced at the Monalisa painting and threw a chair at it, tearing it. “Shawn... it's a wonder he's never seen. He's hiding something!” Chris was confi
The business rivalry would begin one week after the meeting with Christopher Flint's family-owned company. That man was inflating the same business as Shawn. Now they were on the same track and of course competing with each other for the best position as well as yesterday's issue regarding technology. The technological innovations released by the Christopher family are considered to be very interesting technological advancements and it catches everyone's eye. However, not a few also sided with Shawn's technology, so there was some disagreement. The people there mostly said that the Christopher family's technology was better. “The technology created by Mr. Christopher is better.” The praise could be heard echoing, calling out Christopher's name. “It's not surprising that the Flint family's company, for example, is superior to Shawn's technology.” “Not true.” Rebuttals began to be heard from those who favored Shawn. “The technology created by Shawn is far better than Mr. Christophe
