If it weren't for the ringing call from Marcel, Andrew wouldn't have let go of Ivanka, who was on top of him."Where are you going?" Ivanka asked, her face still frightened."Ivanka, I have to take care of some things related to the mine, including meeting your stepfather again. Just wait for me here; I'll probably be back by evening. You know, we've been at it since we arrived at the hotel yesterday at eleven in the morning. We never stopped and kept being intimate; it's the craziest thing in my life. You're amazing, Ivanka." Andrew gently caressed Ivanka's face and gave her a warm kiss on her forehead."Thank you for the compliment, Andrew. Smith also always felt the same way; I think I can earn the title of a satisfying girl in bed."Andrew laughed awkwardly. "Well, I guess that suits you. But can you not talk about what happened between you and Smith in front of me?""Are you jealous? Don't worry; I don't have feelings for him, Andrew.""It's not about jealousy or not, it's just t
He casually walked into the luxurious compound of Bo's house. He deliberately came by taxi to have the freedom to talk to Ivanka on the way to the upscale hotel, not far from where he and Marcel were staying."Fortunately, today I could control Marcel's mind and make him follow my orders. I'm really annoyed by his compliance and curiosity about everything I do," Andrew said.Andrew pressed the doorbell at the gate and spoke into the speaker to announce his arrival. Instantly, two bodyguards came to open the black gate."Please come in, Mr. Andrew. You are asked to meet Mr. Bo first in his room," said one of the bodyguards.Andrew proceeded and approached Bo, who seemed to be enjoying breakfast and welcomed Andrew as if he were an old friend they hadn't seen in a long time."Good morning!" Bo greeted Andrew with a warm hug and a broad smile."You've managed to surprise me twice. Yesterday you looked like a bookworm, and now you're like an old buddy I haven't met for ages. Even my old b
"No, they are too rigid and see me as an enemy. By the way, is it done? What's the result of your nearly two-hour meeting in there, Mr. Andrew?""Call Mr. William, I want to report to him first. After all, he's my boss. Why should I report to you first?"Marcel nodded resignedly and took out his hidden phone from his pocket. His hands danced around, scrolling through the phone screen to find William's number."Why are you still here?"Andrew and Marcel were taken aback by Bo's bodyguard coming out of the elevator. The two handsome bodyguards who escorted them to this floor seemed sarcastic."Well, Marcel and I were just standing here making a phone call, is that not allowed? Besides, I still want to meet Ivanka. You can meet your boss inside and ask him if I can still stay here or not. Your expression clearly shows that you see us as enemies and trash, very impolite."Marcel handed the phone to Andrew, who took it with a sardonic smile while stepping away from Bo's and Marcel's bodygu
Andrew's eyes had repeatedly scanned the fifth page of his necklace's guidebook. Among the many benefits that could be derived from the necklace, 'the past one' seemed relatively easy to apply in theory."I don't know why, but I lack confidence in using this power. The mentioned requirements are clear, but... pure bloodline? How can one determine if someone is of pure bloodline or not? It's strange. Why did Grandfather leave me this necklace without informing me how to use it?"Andrew's phone alarm rang, causing the dark-haired, brown-eyed man to shift his gaze toward the wall clock. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, the time for Andrew to meet William in his room to receive the promised power.Once again, Andrew skimmed through the summary of the power to see the past before leaving. He closed his eyes briefly and whispered, "Alright, I'll try it on William."He placed the book back under his pillow and left the room to go to William's chamber.Upon arrival, Andrew was sta
"Okay, you seem to be forcing me. What's up, Marcel? Are you getting tired of seeing me? Or are you annoyed because you were asked to come back and accompany me?""Of course not, Mr. Andrew. You misunderstand. I want to ask you to explore a bit because I want to come along too. Mr. William assigned me to take care of you, so wherever you go, I'll definitely be there. At least, you won't take me to fights or dangerous places like I've always felt before."Andrew gave a slight smirk and gently patted Marcel's shoulder. He then entered William's luxurious mansion and said, "We will see, Marcel. I feel sorry for him."Andrew raised an eyebrow. "I haven't even decided where I'm going yet. All I have in mind right now is sleep. My body is tired. You know, Mr. William asked me to give him some strength so he can last for three days there without worrying about dropping.""Alright, but my suggestion is to use your time to explore a bit. Getting out of this house, the outside world is much mor
""My heart is yours; shoot me if you want. You can sell all my organs on the black market. I'm sure you'll get many times richer because I'm a healthy person. No alcohol, no cigarettes, no drugs, and I don't have any family to look for me if I die. Fair enough, right? At least, your pain from my deception to your mistress can be healed."The nameless old man then nodded and said, "Deal, I agree to your offer! Please get my phone from the car; I left it in the bag under the driver's seat. Let's call Nania now."Andrew stood up with enthusiasm, giving a thumbs-up while glancing at the wall clock in the room. He saw that there were only twenty minutes left; he needed to hurry and convince the old man in front of him."A very beautiful name for a girl with wicked plans. Wait a moment; I'll be right back, Sir?" Andrew cocked his head, waiting for the old man's answer to know his name."Calvin, and you?""Andrew."**Marcel approached Andrew, who was running towards Calvin's car. William's
Andrew pressed his foot on Peacock's back, causing him more pain."Argh! Damn it! You guys were hired to protect me, and yet you were defeated and incapacitated by a man whose body is even..." Ivanka's sentence was cut off when a bullet struck a painting on the wall, causing it to fall and shatter."Do you want your mouth to end up like that?" Andrew stared at Ivanka with a flat expression. "I'm still hesitant to be violent towards you because you're a woman, but don't think I'm not willing to make you regret it.""H-hey, c-can you p-please get off my back? I can't breathe!" Peacock gasped, asking Andrew to move away."Get lost, fool! Don't let him die! I don't want to support his family!" Ivanka panicked, shouting at Andrew.Andrew chuckled, then moved away from Peacock's back and approached Ivanka, keeping his pistol pointed at Peacock."You're pretty, but you talk too much, and your voice hurts my ears." Andrew took out a handkerchief from his pocket and quickly gagged Ivanka's mou
The lingering curiosity made Andrew lose his focus. Every time he was spoken to, his response was only laughter or a simple "yes" or "yeah." Like now, when Erica expressed her happiness to Andrew, he merely raised his eyebrows."Mr. Andrew, are you okay?" Marcel's reprimand redirected Andrew's gaze. "Of course, Marcel. What's the matter?""Come on, Andrew. Let's go inside," Erica pulled Andrew's hand, not allowing him to hear Marcel's response."Andrew, I've noticed that you look worn-out and unenthusiastic today. Since we were in the car, I've seen you give blank stares several times. I'm afraid something bad might happen to my brother, Erica," William looked at Andrew and Erica interchangeably.Andrew quickly changed his facial expression with a wide smile. "No, Mr. William, it's just your assumption. I'm perfectly fine. If I seem absent-minded, it's probably because I'm still sleepy. Although I rested all day yesterday, I still feel like my energy hasn
