"Be careful, this road is quite slippery." Shawn led the old man across the road to his car. The old man's steps were not very fast due to his shortness of breath. The effects of the drowning were still felt in his frail body.Shawn patiently held and guided the old man to his car. Shawn opened the back door so the old man could sit there. "Be patient, we're going to the hospital soon, old man."Shawn hurriedly got into his car to drive to the nearest hospital. However, even the closest hospital turned out to be an hour-long drive to get there. While driving Shawn was constantly frowning at the situation he was in. Everything seemed unpleasant to him. He kept grumbling to himself in his mind. "What do you mean lucky? You said I'd be lucky if I used the result of the dice, right, system? Look at me now. Am I being lucky? All of a sudden I see people drowning to death. I had to dive into the lake at night to help him, and now I'm the one driving him to the hospital. Is this what you c
"Oh, no need to bother, Lord Darius. This isn't anything big." Shawn raised his hand to reject the offer from Darius and Alex. Shawn felt that it wasn't something to make a fuss about. After all, it is a normal response to help others who are in distress. Alex looked a little disappointed. "Don't say that, Mr. Shawn. You've done a great thing for us. Lord Darius could have been in a bad way if you hadn't helped him." Shawn kept shaking his head. "Never mind, Mr. Alex. Think of it as an act of humanity." Alex wrinkled his forehead. "No, Mr. Shawn. Your actions saved Lord Darius and me. There's no way I'm just going to stand by. At least allow me to do something for you." Shawn was a little surprised by what Alex said. That's too much for Shawn. "It's only right that we help others who are in trouble, right? Especially when it comes to lives. Lord Darius' hospital fees aren't that high anyway." Alex was silent, with his forehead wrinkled. He rarely found anyone who did such a s
Shawn glared after hearing that name from Alex. The name sounded familiar to him, but Shawn didn't really remember it either. He looked at the smiling old man. His appearance was messy, but after Shawn looked closely, Shawn realized something about Lord Darius from his face. "That face seems a little familiar. Where have I seen it before?"Shawn furrowed his brow, trying hard to remember this figure. Shawn was sure he had seen this person somewhere. Until finally Shawn remembered that Lord Darius' face had been seen in a business magazine he saw in a shop.Realizing that made Shawn distrustful of this situation. He opened his eyes wide while glancing at Alex. The man just smiled and nodded slowly. Then Shawn turned his gaze back to Lord Darius. The old man looked calm as he watched the confused Shawn.Shawn gulped down his own saliva. "So, you are Darius Hubert, the very rich man of Yihua?"Lord Darius just chuckled. He saw this as quite a funny incident. It turned out that the young
Shawn opened the door to the villa, and what he found was Rachel staring at him intently while folding her arms across her chest. The look on her face conveyed an annoyance that she was holding back.She then looked up slightly, giving the impression that she was more fierce. "Where have you been? I've been looking for you and couldn't find you anywhere. Do you already want to upset me on our first day of honeymoon, Shawn?"Shawn could understand that Rachel was upset with Shawn's behavior of leaving without informing her. However, it was all because Shawn had forgotten not to call her. The previous circumstances made Shawn not remember that he needed to contact Rachel.However, Shawn didn't think much of it now. The gift he got from Lord Darius made him feel very happy, overpowering Rachel's annoyance. "Rachel, I got something great."Shawn smiled widely as he said it. Of course, this made Rachel a little surprised. Even though Rachel scolded him, why did she make such an innocent fa
Rachel exhaled as she shook her head. "You..."Rachel didn't want Shawn to participate in the activity at all. However, Shawn fell for Mike's invitation to play the darts game. It was obvious that Mike was baiting them to come to the darts game. Rachel regretted following Mike's advice because it led to this stupid bet.Rachel leaned closer to Shawn and whispered in his ear. "Shawn, you just ignore Mike's invitation. You don't need to make it hard for yourself to fight him. You remember what happened with Taylor, right? Remember that Mike is also a rich man, he likes to make bets and make things difficult. Don't you dare!"Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Mike. The man continued to look a little sullen when he saw Rachel close to Shawn. However, he immediately grinned back with a smug look on his face. "You're not going to back out, are you?"Shawn glanced at Rachel. She furrowed her brows slightly because she didn't want him to get involved. However, Shawn still nodde
"Now you're doing the stupid thing of saying the ground is uneven? Don't be silly, loser. I still have 276 points left and you still have 281. There's still a long way to go. Even if you lose, it's too early to cheat and show your weakness, Shawn." Mike said with a frivolous grin and raised one eyebrow.The people watching chuckled slightly at Mike's remark. After all, the ground Shaw was standing on was flat, so of course Mike's words were taken as true by the people watching.Shawn just exhaled, it was a little tiring listening to an arrogant person who didn't know his place like Mike. He turned to Rachel. Unlike the other spectators, she wasn't laughing at all and had her arms folded across her chest. It seemed like she didn't like this match.After Mike accidentally nudged him on purpose when Shawn was throwing, Shawn was thinking badly of Rachel's childhood friend. "What else is this guy going to do?"Mike returned to his position and started aiming. He threw the darts at Bullsey
Shawn quickly turned around and caught a hand that was about to hit his head. Then Shawn locked the movement of his arm by slightly twisting the man's wrist using a little Aikido technique.Shawn immediately looked into the eyes of the man who attacked him. "Mike... what a coward you are!"Mike winced slightly at the pain in his hand. If he forced the wrist to move, he could have dislocated the hand. The man sensed that this Aikido lock was quite dangerous, but Mike also did not accept being called a coward by Shawn.He returned Shawn's gaze with a sinister look as well. He glared hatefully. "You can talk all you want, lousy guy. I'm sure you must have cheated earlier! Kadu is a poor guy who spent your life working in a lowly factory. There's no way you have the skills to beat me, an elite person. You must have done something to make yourself win, right? You cheater!"Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly. He released his hand lock with a slight pushback, allowing Mike to escape the excruc
"What's in it for me to help a stranger like you?" Shawn furrowed his brows and gave the man a sharp look.The man repeatedly looked back in panic that the people chasing him would catch up. He again held Shawn's hand tighter and tighter. "You can't act like that. Please hide me from them. I'll die if I get caught by those monsters!"Shawn and Rachel looked sharply at the confused man. Shawn did not know what monsters the man was referring to. However, Shawn couldn't immediately trust a stranger like this. He could have bad intentions towards Shawn and Rachel.Shawn removed his hand from the man's grip. "I can't do it."The man immediately swallowed his saliva. His eyes did not blink as he looked at Shawn, portraying disappointment at Shawn's refusal. However, the man was now clinging to Shawn's leg. "No, no, I mean it! Do me a favor just this once. Hide me until those people pass by. Please!"Shawn began to feel uncomfortable with this man's coercion. He even wrinkled his forehead. "
