"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. However, Andrew was completely undeterred. He remained focused on pounding Orlando's bruised face.
A man in a dark blue suit appeared and shouted, "Andrew! Stop!"
Simultaneously, three guards quickly pulled Andrew off Orlando. Andrew grinned widely and spoke to the man in the blue suit, who was the CEO of the company.
"Ah, Sir, this is enjoyable, why did you stop me? Just a little more, and he would have seen hell!"
"Fuck you, Andrew!" Nadine screamed while crying, embracing Orlando, who was about to be evacuated by several guards.
"Ah, I'll send you to hell too, Nadine. Don't worry, you won't be separated!"
"Shut up, Andrew!"
Andrew's gaze then shifted to the enraged CEO. His face turned red, and he took off his black sunglasses, revealing the fierce glare in his eyes.
"Do you know what you did wrong, don't you?" the CEO asked.
"There's nothing wrong, Sir. Imagine if your child or spouse were insulted by trash? What would you do? Would you stay silent? I'm not sure. Self-respect is far more important, you understand that."
The CEO approached and stared at Andrew, then whispered softly. "Yes, but you better understand what kind of trash you're fighting against. Paper trash? Or junk that can kill you with rust and sharp edges? You've made a mistake, Andrew!"
The CEO glanced at the guards behind him. "Finish him off, make it worse than Orlando."
"No, don't do anything bad to my brother! I beg you!" Erica tried to stop the guards from touching Andrew, but to no avail. The sturdy guards pushed Erica aside and prepared to strike Andrew.
Andrew appeared calm and continued to smile. Just before the blow could land on his face, a man suddenly shouted and halted the action.
"STOP IT!"
Andrew and the others turned simultaneously towards a black luxury car parked in front of the company courtyard. A man in a black suit stepped out and approached them.
"I came here to bring Mr. Andrew to meet Mr. William, and I can assure you that the person you're holding is Mr. Andrew."
Instantly, the CEO's expression changed drastically. Everyone looked astonished upon hearing the name mentioned by the man.
In unison, the guards released their grip on Andrew's body. The man in the black suit approached the unmoving CEO.
"Hey, it seems like you have a problem with Mr. Andrew, but let me tell you, Mr. William left a message for me to bring Mr. Andrew safely as he was when they met yesterday. I'm afraid if Mr. Andrew has any scratches, even a tiny one, Mr. William won't be pleased," the man in the black suit whispered.
The CEO swallowed his saliva, shook his head, and said, "Y-Yeah, it's okay. It's all just a misunderstanding. We didn't intend to hit Andrew. You can take him!"
Andrew looked confused by what was happening. He hugged his sister and looked at the man in the black suit standing before him. Nevertheless, he understood that the man referred to by the man in the black suit was the old man he helped yesterday.
"Mr. Andrew, let's go. Mr. William is waiting for you at home."
"Yeah, but I'm with my sister. Is it okay if we bring her too?" Andrew asked.
"Of course, that's fine. It's even better. Let's go."
Andrew walked away from the CEO and the still stunned guards, who watched the luxurious car carrying Andrew until it disappeared from sight.
The CEO then hurried inside to meet Orlando, who had been taken to his office earlier.
Orlando's bruised face had a fierce expression as he stared sharply at the CEO upon seeing the man in the blue suit enter.
"So, how bad does Andrew look? He's surely worse off than me now, right?"
"I apologize, Young Master, but Andrew was picked up by Mr. William's associate, so... we didn't have a chance to hit him."
"What?!" Orlando threw the cloth he had been applying to his face. He rose from his position and shouted in front of the CEO. "What have you done?! You just let him go like that?! Do you want your job here to end?!"
"Honey, calm down," Nadine said.
"I can't calm down! This idiot couldn't even do his job properly, even though his only task was to oversee the guards and make Andrew's condition worse! I won't let him slip from my grasp!"
"I deeply apologize, Young Master Orlando, but hearing the name Mr. William, we all lost our nerve...."
"What does that have to do with me? Who the hell is Mr. William? I don't care! All I want is for Andrew to suffer more and be locked up in prison! I want him to live in torment there, even if it means dying in jail! I will call my father to handle all of this and make sure you receive a warning letter, you stupid CEO!"
"It would be better not to, Young Master."
The CEO's words stopped Orlando, who was searching for his father's number on his phone. "What do you mean?!"
"We're not dealing with just anyone. Mr. William is a powerful figure in this city. Everyone knows how cold and firm he can be. If something doesn't meet his desires, he can destroy it. Especially if it already belongs to him, we won't be able to disturb him. Perhaps, another good thing is that Andrew made a mistake and is being called to receive a terrible punishment. We don't know, Young Master."
The CEO's brief explanation made Orlando think. He turned off his phone and said, "Okay, in that case, I want you to gather information about Andrew's condition. If he's still fine, I swear to God, I won't let him go. I don't care if he's locked up in a cage with a thousand adult tigers! He must suffer!"
"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.
One hour passed, and anxiety enveloped Andrew. He appeared to be frowning as his younger sister still hadn't returned. After all, Erica had promised to spend only half an hour with her friend. Andrew wanted to approach Erica, but he needed help with the barrage of questions from William's colleague. Moreover, he didn't wish to Erica to get angry if he observed her too intensely. His phone, which had run out of battery, added to Andrew's distress. He truly had no means of reaching his sister out there. "Why, Andrew? You seem anxious," William asked. "Yes, Mr. William, I'm just worried because Erica hasn't returned yet. It's been an hour already. I'm afraid she might have gone off with her friend." "You're overreacting, Andrew. I'm sure she's fine. No one would dare to disturb her, especially in this elite environment. They're having a conversation out there. Let her enjoy her time. Erica may also be tired of being inside. Calm down, enjoy these dishes for now." William's words too
Jerome hid under the blanket. What had happened to the three men earlier terrified him."Am I going to die? They definitely won't stay quiet; they'll come back," Jerome mumbled, clutching tightly to the edge of the blanket that covered his body.The sound of a knock on the door startled him, his heart seeming to leap out of his chest. Sweat, which had been absent, now surged all over his body, but the tension eased slightly when he heard his mother's voice."Jerome, are you home?" Meghan, his mother, called out.Jerome quickly hid the necklace he was wearing under his shirt and hurried to open the door for Meghan. His eyes narrowed as he glanced out the window, seeing a man kissing Meghan's neck affectionately."My son! Where have you been, sleeping?" Meghan asked with a broad smile."Who is this?" Jerome asked, looking at the man with jet-black hair who was now fondling Meghan's backside.Meghan pushed the man's hand away awkwardly and was about to answer her only child's question wh
Tampa, January 11, 2024"Jerome, you idiot, can you stop blocking our way!"The shout came from a burly man wearing a black jacket. He was walking with two of his friends, pushing a thin man with curly hair named Jerome Hashford.Jerome, who had fallen, could only look gloomily at the three popular guys on his campus. He then got up and fixed his glasses that had fallen off."How long are you going to stay silent and let yourself be bullied? I'm tired of seeing you like this," said Hans, one of the other popular guys.Hans stood with his girlfriend Margareth, the woman Jerome adored. They both looked furious seeing the three bullies, who were now further away but still laughing."Thanks for the advice, Hans.""I'm not giving advice, Jerome. This is your third year here, and you still stay silent. I mean, why? What are you afraid of? Fight back! You're a man!"Jerome swallowed his saliva and just nodded, saying, "Yes, next time I will try to fight back. I have to go now; I don't want to

The offer seemed reasonable to Calvin, and he handed his phone to Andrew, saying, "Fine! A simple thing that I can easily comply with. Now, make the call, Nania, execute your plan, and be prepared to lose your life if everything fails, Andrew!" "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."
Two cold drinks were served on the table in a hospital cafeteria, where the middle-aged woman healed by Andrew was located.Andrew and the man named Stuart sat facing each other. Stuart appeared to be reading a presentation provided by Andrew on his phone."This is an excellent opportunity for me. I, who don't have a background in employment, chosen as a warehouse manager, amazing! I will definitely accept this offer, Sir! I won't waste this opportunity," Stuart exclaimed with sparkling eyes.Andrew raised an eyebrow. "Don't call me 'Sir'; I don't like it. And indeed, this is a great opportunity. You don't need to rent anymore; there's a small house within the vicinity of my company where you can stay. I'll also provide a car for your transportation and supply the groceries and essentials for the house."Stuart was stunned; he chuckled nervously before returning the phone to his hand. So embarrassed hearing what Andrew offered, Stuart ended up finishing his drink in front of him.Andr
Andrew looked gloomy as he stared out of the car window on the way to Stanley's house, the owner of the subsidiary forcibly acquired by William. Roger, noticing Andrew's demeanor, nudged his arm and asked, "What are you thinking?" Andrew raised both eyebrows. "I don't know, just bored, spending time that feels quite monotonous. I'm curious about what made William love a life like this so much." "Money, power, and immortality, the three components always held by William," replied Roger. "Anyway, enjoy what's happening now. After talking to Stanley, let's find some pleasure at the bar." Andrew rolled his eyes and shook his head. "It's not a choice that will make me happy. You know, I--." Andrew's eyes were caught by an elderly woman holding her chest on the side of the road in front of a flower shop. Instantly, he tapped the driver's shoulder and asked to stop. "Why, Andrew?" Roger asked. Andrew didn't speak; when the car stopped, he got out and approached the old woman with white
A group of paparazzi from various local media outlets were crowded in front of Daniella's company, which Andrew would reopen today. Whispers of admiration for the magnificence of this construction company could be heard. Some of them compared it to the grandeur of the late William's company. "It's only natural; she's William's child. It seems she intentionally made her parents' two companies similar!" one paparazzo remarked. From inside the company, Andrew could be seen smiling while puffing on a cigar. Every word from the paparazzi was clearly audible to him. "I wonder about Marcel's reaction. I want to see how annoyed he'll be when he sees this huge company rise again. I truly have become William, haven't I, Roger?" Andrew asked while looking at Roger beside him. "Literally, you are a replica of William. But, I guarantee your pleasure in having two giant companies under your leadership won't drive you to break the rules like William did before, right?" "There's a hint of trauma
