"I said, my body is too valuable to sleep with a whore like your sister."
Orlando appeared to chuckle, while Andrew, unable to contain his anger any longer, was about to throw a punch at Orlando.
However, just before it landed on Orlando's face, Erica screamed, "Stop!"
The girl in the red shirt approached Andrew and hugged him tightly from behind. This prompted Andrew to release his grip on Orlando's collar and embrace Erica to calm her down.
"Don't do anything, Andrew. I beg you. Don't jeopardize your position," Erica whispered.
Orlando and Nadine had sinister grins on their faces. Orlando, in particular, remained confident because they were in his father's company. He believed that would protect him from Andrew's attack. As long as they were in his territory, Orlando thought Andrew wouldn't dare to touch him.
"What your sister said is true, Andrew. You'd better watch your attitude. You might end up without a job in this city. You should understand the power of my family, what we can do to shape someone's career. Don't you remember when you worked here, one of your colleagues got fired? Have you ever asked him how his life is now?" Orlando stared at Andrew fiercely.
"I don't care and I'm not afraid of your family, Orlando! I'm here to defend my sister!" Andrew glared back.
"More precisely, to defend a whore," Nadine interjected with a laugh.
Andrew was about to approach Nadine, and this time he didn't consider whether she was a woman or not. He wanted to slap Nadine's face. However, once again, Erica stopped her brother by holding him back.
"No, no! Don't do anything, Andrew. I beg you, promise me!" Erica pleaded.
"Erica! Stop holding me back. They've spread malicious rumors and lies to degrade you! You've been humiliated by them, Erica! I won't stay silent when someone disrespects my family!"
Orlando and Nadine applauded and laughed. Both of them approached Andrew and Erica, and even Orlando didn't hesitate to embrace Andrew with his irritating expression.
"A beautiful drama in the morning. You're lucky to have a younger sister who is much more mature and understands your position in this city, Andrew. Erica, I will forgive your deliberate attempts to seduce me, and I won't bring up the slander you threw at Andrew again. Nadine has decided the same thing. What happened this morning, I consider it done."
"No! It's not over, you bastard!" Andrew pulled Orlando's collar again.
"Stop it, Andrew!"
Erica raised her voice and scolded her brother. She released her embrace on Andrew and pulled his hand away from Orlando's collar.
"Let me handle this!" Erica cupped her hands in front of Orlando and said, "I beg you, forgive what happened this morning. Please don't make it difficult for my brother to find a job. After all, we no longer have parents. We need money, I plead with you, don't bring up this incident again, Sir."
Seeing her sister continuously apologizing to Orlando infuriated Andrew. He then decided to pull Erica away from Orlando.
"Come on, Erica!"
Andrew chose not to prolong the issue as long as Erica was near him. He restrained his anger and resentment towards Orlando. However, his mind still struggled to stay focused and not let the emotions ignite against the two annoying individuals.
Unfortunately, the words that came out of Orlando's mouth afterward made Andrew halt his steps, which had already taken him quite far, when Orlando shouted, "Goodbye, poor people! If you need a job, come to me, Erica, and lick my ass!"
"No, don't do it, Andrew!" Erica tried to stop Andrew, but her brother could no longer contain his anger.
Nadine and Orlando's laughter echoed in front of the company. Just before Orlando entered, Andrew leaped towards him, causing Orlando to fall.
"KYAA!"
Nadine's laughter turned into screams. Orlando's body was right in the middle of the door, keeping the automatic door open.
Andrew gripped his neck and sat on top of Orlando's body. His gaze was fierce, and he said, "Say hello to hell, Orlando!"
"What do you mean, And--"The punch could no longer be avoided. Andrew brutally and repeatedly struck Orlando's face."I'll make sure you die, Orlando! Scumbag!""KYAA! Help!" Nadine screamed, calling for security to stop Andrew.The fight suddenly became its own entertainment for the employees. Instead of separating the two men, they pulled out their phones and started recording."I support you, Andrew!""Andrew is once again providing an interesting entertainment!""It seems like Orlando won't be able to defeat Andrew!"The whispers from the employees only fueled Andrew's madness. His face now had a smile as he watched blood flowing from Orlando's nose.Meanwhile, Erica could only cry as she tried to pull her brother's body. But it was all in vain. Andrew was consumed by his anger and the desire to silence Orlando."Hey, stop it! What are you doing there, disperse!"A man shouted from the hall, suddenly causing the employees who were watching the altercation to scatter in a hurry. H
"Mr. Andrew, I apologize, but we will soon arrive at Mr. William's residence."The voice of the black-suited man who picked them up woke Andrew and Erica. They had fallen asleep after traveling for nearly an hour and a half."Where are we going, Andrew?" Erica asked."Shh, just be quiet. I don't know either, but one thing's for sure, you don't need to worry because I will always protect you."Andrew chose to remain silent and not ask many questions to the black-suited man who was taking him. One thing he knew was that they were clearly far from the city center. In fact, they were surrounded by dense forests, and the quiet roads led Andrew to speculate that they were heading eastward."Look at that!" Erica nudged Andrew and pointed to the window beside her.A magnificent mansion with towering black gates appeared among the trees. Andrew was quite amazed by the sight. Their car followed the road leading to the mansion.Shortly after, the car came to a complete stop in front of the gate
"From the expression you're giving, it seems you're quite interested in my request. Maybe you don't want to accept money, but I will give you something that you truly need if you succeed in healing me." Andrew pondered for a moment. He then saw this as a good opportunity to fix his chaotic life. "Yeah, I know what you mean. Your offer sounds quite intriguing." "Then, I guess we've reached an agreement. So, how about it? Do you want to do it now?" "Before that, I want to know, how do you know that I can save you?" Andrew asked. "I didn't have a heart attack, Andrew. And I know you understand that. It was only you who could suddenly replenish the oxygen that vanished yesterday. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have called you here." Andrew nodded, then said, "Yes, I didn't perform CPR as others would have wanted. I just tried to 'revive' your fading pulse." "And I hope this time you truly revive it, so it will never die again." "I'm saving you, Sir, not making you immortal." An
William smirked, blowing smoke from his mouth and nose. He shook his head and said, "Not now. Although he is the heir to all the wealth, he needs more time to understand. Let him grasp how life works; I don't want to suddenly reveal everything and spoil him with fulfilled desires. My task now is to guide him to control that power. So, keep it secret."The black-suited man bowed his head once again to William and said, "Yes, Sir. I understood.""Okay, please go ahead. Wake them up at five o'clock, we will go to the city for dinner there. I will introduce Andrew to some amazing people who can assist him in his future work," William said.The old man then clapped his hands, and at the same time, all the curtains closed. Right after the man in black left, William, with his eyes closed, said, "Close the door."The door of the room that was previously unseen emerged from above and closed the room perfectly.***Andrew still stood upright in front of the bedroom door. His face widened into a
The classy tuxedo, neatly combed hair to the left side, and bright face made Andrew look different. His steps appeared calm as the elevator door opened. The brown-haired man immediately captivated Erica and William, who had been waiting for him."Oh my goodness, Andrew! You look so perfect!" Erica ran towards her brother, a radiant smile on her face."Not only are you surprised, but I am also quite amazed by my appearance. You look beautiful too, Erica, your red dress is perfect. We should thank Mr. William for making us look classy."William lowered his head with his cane, accepting the praise given by Andrew."You both deserve a luxurious appearance. By the way, we should leave now. And Erica, I would like to speak briefly with your brother on our way to the car."Sure, Mr. William." Erica hastened with one of William's guards, leaving her brother with the middle-aged man wearing sunglasses."So, Andrew, how is it? Are you satisfied with the service I provided? You can tell me if th
"Andrew, I'll meet my friend over there; you can join me later. Enjoy the food," William said, patting Andrew's shoulder before leaving with one of his guards. Andrew nodded and shifted his gaze back to Orlando, who was getting closer. Erica was seen holding her brother's arm, consumed by nervousness and fear. Andrew noticed her anxiety. "Relax, Erica. What are you afraid of from these two fools? They wouldn't dare to touch you. Trust me." "Well, well, no wonder I've been smelling a strong stench. It turns out there's a piece of trash brought by a whore here," Orlando waved his hand in front of his nose. Nadine, standing beside him, did the same. "Who are you calling trash and a whore? It seems like you will back home with a broken leg now," Andrew clenched his fist. Erica, witnessing the situation, immediately pulled Andrew away. However, Andrew held his sister's hand and remained in his position. He showed no fear of Orlando's words. He slowly began to understand the power he pos
"I apologize for what Orlando did to you. He is still very unstable and made a mistake in his approach! I believe what happened earlier was simply a misunderstanding!" Mr. Smith bowed, forcing Orlando to do the same."Daddy! What are you doing?! Why are you apologizing to someone who stole my data?! Don't you remember he's an employee--""Shut up, Orlando! Quickly apologize to Andrew!" Mr. Smith snapped at Orlando, a satisfied smile on his face as he watched Andrew.Orlando gave Andrew a disdainful look and quickly lowered his head without uttering a word."Thank you, Mr. Smith, for teaching your son basic decency. And what about you? Orlando's girlfriend, don't you want to show the same attitude? Are you sure you want her as your future daughter-in-law, Mr. Smith? Her behavior as a woman is appalling; she called my sister a whore." Andrew now nudged Nadine, and she looked flustered and wide-eyed, shaking her head.Mr. Smith narrowed his eyes at Nadine, anger clearly visible on his fa
Andrew and Erica entered the VVIP room while William was toasting with his colleagues. All eyes turned towards them. "Who is that?" one of them said. William looked in the direction they were pointing and said, "Ah, Andrew, come here, Son!" Andrew smiled widely, bowing his head, and walked towards William. William tapped his glass with a spoon, stood up from his chair, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Andrew. He is my associate." Nearly ten people in the room raised their glasses and smiled at Andrew. It was an excellent sight for Andrew, who had never experienced a life befitting a great person who had it all. What William did left a lasting impression. Andrew's desire to heal William's illness increased. A sense of gratitude welled up in his heart. He never expected to be regarded as he was now. Usually, he was just a cockroach mocked by many people for being disgusting. "Please have a seat, Andrew, Erica. Let's enjoy a different meal than what's served outside.
