“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
Alex approached cautiously, his hands gripping a tray, eyes fixed on Shawn holding a letter. “Excuse me, Master Shawn,” Alex spoke softly, trying to catch his master’s attention. “May I ask, what letter is that?” Shawn glanced briefly at Alex, his sharp eyes scrutinizing him. “It’s something important,” Shawn replied, folding the letter slowly, his tone flat but carrying tension. Alex sensed something unusual but restrained himself from prying further. “If you need help, sir, I’m always at your service.” Shawn offered a faint smile but said nothing. Alex watched closely as Shawn folded the letter in his hands. There was an underlying tension Alex hadn’t seen before. After a few seconds of silence, Shawn exhaled profoundly and said, “Christopher Flint has requested a meeting.” Alex was taken aback by the name. Christopher Flint was not someone to be taken lightly. His mind raced, trying to process what he had just heard. “Do you really think it's necessary, sir? Christop
The atmosphere in the room was suffocating but these two great guys never wanted to show the situation they were in. They each observed each other, Shawn looked calm. He touched his chin with his index finger, until he kept his eyes on the man in front of him, Christopher who was smiling as if he had won a lot of things in his life. looking very bright amidst the strong pressure between them. “I'm also very happy to see you. Are you alright Lord Christopher?” In Shawn's observation, he noticed that this man was trying to control the situation around him. He was being very calm right now, but each of them was wary that it could be the end for them. “Yeah I've been wanting to meet you for a while now. It's about the rumors.” The fake smile on his face was very visible, he even deliberately said something like that to see the panic reaction on his enemy's face. But Shawn didn't show anything he continued to stay straight without changing his expression at all as if it was jus
Christopher shot Shawn a glare, cornering him in the center of the dark room. The atmosphere was tense, the air was heavy, and Shawn felt an inexplicable urgency. “Tell me, Shawn,” Christopher's voice sounded deep, breaking the silence. “What is your power system?” Shawn was silent, he looked blank. There was a mental pressure, a subtle urge that was hard to resist. Christopher had the ability to manipulate minds, and it could be felt now-slowly creeping into his mind, urging him to obey. “I... I can't,” Shawn tried to resist, grasping the sides of his head. The pressure grew stronger. “This power... is the power of a god-” “Don't try to resist,” Christopher leaned closer, a faint smile etched on his face. “You know I can make you talk. Don't make this hard. Tell me. What your Power System is.” Shawn bit his lip, trying hard to resist Christopher's influence. But slowly, his body weakened, his mind seemed to lock up. “I...” Shawn whispered, unable to hold back any longer. C
Rachel took a deep breath. Then she exhaled slowly. She really liked the fresh air she was breathing right now. This made the beautiful woman's sweet smile brighten. “Ah... how delicious...” Rachel closed her eyes to feel the wind on her face. The sound of birds singing to each other seemed to sing to her. Today was a very quiet day for Rachel. In this large garden, she could calm down from the busy and tense atmosphere of the city. I don't know how long it had been since Rachel felt this kind of atmosphere. All this time she had been busy with her work, even taking care of all kinds of annoying people. Rachel was now grateful. At least, now she could reduce the negative people who always talked bad to her. It was all thanks to Shawn who had taken on the huge responsibility of being the successor to the Hubert family. Now, Rachel could enjoy her life with an unbeatable peace of mind. Without Rachel realizing it, a pair of feet approached Rachel. Those eyes were looking at Rach
