The Charismatic Steve With System Chapter 26 - Steve's Revenge Returns
"Does Jacob know Alvarez? Are they close friends? Did they conspire to frame me?" Sarah clenched her fists tightly. Lately, her guard had been down. She knew the entertainment world was a world of tricks and deceit. "What should I do now? Because I don't know who my enemy is." Sarah stared intently ahead. "Alvarez, who are you? What do I want from you? Can you be trusted? *** Nighttime. Steve returned to Jacob's luxurious mansion. He found Sarah pensive by the pool. Steve approached his wife and sat down beside her. "Sarah, how's work going? Is it going well?" Sarah was surprised by Steve's presence. "Why do you come home so late?" "I received a punishment from Ms. Ellen because you and your family made a mess in Alvarez Corp's office." Steve smiled a little. Sarah lowered sadly. For so many times, she and her family had burdened Steve. "I'm sorry." 'But your suffering will soon be over.' Sarah added. "It doesn't matter. You don't have to think about it." Steve smiled

"I will make you regret your decision!" Steve looked at Sarah angrily. "My daughter won't regret dumping a trashy guy like you in her life!" Jennifer shouted. "We'll see about that, bitch! I'll make you and the people here suffer like in hell!" "I'll wait for your vengeance, Steve." Jacob chuckled mockingly. "You won't be able to do it!" "We'll prove it, damn it! I swear you'll lose everything!" Steve left Jacob's luxurious mansion. He called Jack and ordered him to pick him up immediately. Soon, a sports car arrived and drove him to a club owned by Alvarez Corp. "Come on, get off. Get me drunk." Steve ordered. "Okay." Realizing Steve was not okay, Jack complied. When Steve entered, all the servants and higher-ups greeted him with a respectful bow. "We've prepared a VVIP room for you, Mr. Alvarez." Justin, the club manager, said politely. Jack had booked the room earlier when he found out Steve was in a bad mood. He knew what Steve wanted before his boss did. Steve looked

A few days later. Several famous singers took turns singing on stage to entertain the guests. Among the guests who filled the ballroom of the luxury hotel were artists and business tycoons. Jacob, Emmy, and Jenny mingle with the guests they know. And so did Sarah and her family. Since the success of her movie, she has received many compliments from other artists, so they have become close friends. Tuk! Tuk! Tuk! Everyone turned around as someone tapped the microphone on stage. A beautiful woman wearing a sparkling black dress smiled kindly. "Thank you for taking the time to attend my birthday party. Please enjoy the show." Ellen stepped off the stage. "So you are the Vice-CEO of Alvarez Corp?" Audrey, the CEO of Ramos Corp, greeted Sarah's family. "That's right." Peter, who was wearing a navy tuxedo, smiled sweetly. He was mesmerized by the beauty of the woman wearing a pink dress. "It's awesome." She reached out to Peter to shake his hand. "I'm Audrey, CEO of Ramos Corp." "
The Charismatic Steve With System Chapter 29 - Ellen was Kidnapped
To the apartment, Steve laughed contentedly. He sat next to Ellen while Jack drove. "Was my idea a good, Mr. Alvarez?" "Of course, Ellen. You're so smart! I'm proud of you." It was Steve's happiest day—finally, his revenge on the grudge he'd held onto for so long. The system had no problem with that. He could destroy Jacob, Emmy, and even Sarah's entire family in one day. "I must make you happy, My boss. Didn't I promise to prove my love?" Ellen smiled sweetly, teasingly. Steve was awkward. He quickly looked away to look out the window as his heart was pounding. Since Ellen declared love, Steve tried to keep his distance, but she never gave up and kept trying to get close to him. Ellen wasn't unattractive, but Steve was too fed up with love. Moreover, Ellen did not sincerely love him. He didn't know the time limit for the Charismatic System's power would end. He didn't want to be trapped in heartache again. Now, his focus was only one. That is to become the wealthiest man in
The Charismatic Steve With System Chapter 30 - Return Ellen to Me!
"We'd better order all your bodyguards to come with us, Mr. Alvarez, because I'm pretty sure Jacob's got all his men deployed as well," Jack suggested. "I agree with your assistant," Martin added. "I've already ordered my men to come to Jacob's mansion." "Don't do it!" Steve refused firmly while driving his car at lightning speed. "Why?" [Mission Updated: Don't bring bodyguards on raids] [Reward: 50 Lifestyle Points] The system screen kept appearing in front of Steve, stressing him out. He strongly agreed with Jack's idea but had no choice. If he violated the System's orders, he would lose everything. "If Jacob knows we brought bodyguards, he will think we want to fight against him. Then he won't hesitate to kill Ellen." Steve provoked. Roxy was afraid to hear that. Not long after, they arrived at Jacob's mansion. They broke in when they defeated the two guards guarding the gate. "Ellen! Where are you?" They searched every room and chamber of the luxurious mansion. Because o
The Charismatic Steve With System Chapter 31 - Who are you?
Jacob's muscles were popping out from underneath his T-shirt, making Steve gulp loudly in fear. He didn't want to turn to the hospital like before. However, his eyes were transfixed by the fresh blood on his enemy's white T-shirt. "Come on, fight me. I'll give you a bad fate like Peter." "What have you done to him?!" Steve shouted angrily. Jacob was a cruel man. "I killed the young fool." Jacob chuckled with satisfaction as if he had found treasure. "That was very fun. Especially, when I heard his cry of pain. It's beautiful sound still rings clearly in my ears." Steve was wide-eyed with shock. "You are bastard!" "I'm jerk? Peter destroyed my company, so he deserves it," Jacob said casually without a guilty look. "Why would you do that?! Don't you care about the feelings of Sarah, the woman you love?! She must be devastated right now!" Jacob laughed evilly. "You're so stupid, Steve. I never loved her! The reason I'm always trying to get you and Sarah divorced is because I jus

"Who are you?" Steve frowned in confusion. The gray-haired man looked familiar to him.Surprisingly, he knew about Alvarez.The old man approached Steve and extended his hand to shake. "I'm Daniel."Steve looked at the wrinkled hand warily, fearing a deadly weapon.Realizing Steve refused his handshake, Daniel lowered it back with a friendly smile."I'm not your enemy.""Who are you?" Steve repeated firmly. How did the stranger know his last name? No one knew about his identity except those closest to him."I am the owner of Forpus Corp. I would like to invite you to cooperate."Steve's eyebrows shot up in surprise. Didn't he see that he was bankrupt?"Unfortunately, Mr. Alvarez is dead. I cannot approve it because I only work as a cleaning service.""You don't have to lie, Mr. Alvarez. I know who you really are.""Sorry, I don't have time to talk to you. I have to go." Steve passed Daniel to leave, but he blocked his hand."Please don't make me angry, Mr. Alvarez." Daniel's friendly

When Audrey didn't answer, Steve held Audrey's shoulders."Hurry up and tell me what you want! Don't make me wait! I swear I'll give you whatever you want!""I want you to marry me."Steve was stunned. "What?! Are you serious?""Of course." Audrey smiled sweetly as she stroked Steve's sideburned jaw. "I loved you from the moment we met. I wanted to have you completely, but that bitch beat me to it.""Bitch? Who?""Sarah. But I'm glad you're divorced from that parasite.""How dare you call Sarah a bitch." Steve was slightly offended but did not snap at her."Why are you angry about insulting your ex-wife? Do you still love the woman who divorced you for no reason?""You don't know anything about the problems between me and Sarah, so you can't infer anything bad about her!" Steve scolded sternly.Audrey backed away, giving Steve a disappointed look. "You just ask Sarah about Ellen! Give her your help! I'm sorry I helped you!"She walked away."Wait!" Steve grabbed Audrey's hand. "You mu

161 - Duel
Steve closed the last of the 100 books after spending two hours in the library. He absorbed all the knowledge with the help of the system’s item, so he didn’t even need to read. After taking in all the material, Steve started writing a proposal to pour out his ideas. "I hope CEO Rodriguez likes my ideas." He headed to Rodriguez Corp and approached the receptionist. "Can I meet Mr. Rodriguez?" Steve asked politely. The woman glanced at his appearance from head to toe. “Do you have an appointment with him?” "No, I don’t." "Sorry, but you can't meet him." "Please, I have something important to discuss with him.""You should leave and fix your appearance first. You look like a homeless person." Steve was annoyed but didn’t want to argue. He didn’t have much time. "What's going on?"*Steve instinctively turned toward the voice. A man in his 30s was looking at him curiously. "This gentleman wants to meet Mr. Rodriguez." "Why are you looking for him?" the man asked. "I’m

The next day, Steve sat in his office at Anderson Corp, staring blankly at the transparent screen in front of him. His thoughts were tangled, his mind unable to focus. "How am I supposed to do this?" he muttered. For twenty minutes, he had been frozen in his chair, completely clueless about his next move. [Main Quest: Save Anderson's Daughter][Time Limit: Unlimited][Reward: Mystery]"I don’t even know who Anderson’s daughter is," Steve mumbled under his breath, rubbing his temple. A soft knock on the door broke his concentration. A beautiful woman entered, carrying several large gift boxes in her arms. She smiled politely as she approached him. “Excuse me, sir. Someone sent these as a congratulatory gift for your first day,” she said, placing the boxes on his desk. Steve’s brows furrowed. “Who sent them?” “I’m not sure, sir. Even the delivery person didn’t know,” she replied. A strange feeling crawled up his spine. Something about this didn’t feel right. “Thank you.

Finally, a promotion was within reach.“Are you promoting me to financial manager, as promised?” Adam asked eagerly.Anderson remained silent, taking another sip of his wine.“And what about me, sir?” Lewis chimed in. “A few months ago, you praised my work. Will I also be moving up?”“The Vice-CEO position is

The next day, Steve returned to work as usual. This time, his task was to deliver coffee to Adam’s office. Ding!Steve stopped in his tracks as a transparent screen appeared in front of him. [Daily Mission Unlocked: Perform One Good Deed] [Reward: $1,000,000] “Are you serious?!” His excitement was interrupted by the sound of a conversation. “So, Adam, have you prepared the money to invest in my insurance company?” Steve froze outside the door, instantly recognizing the voice. 'Carlson?'“Yes. I’ll transfer it tomorrow. For now, I can’t touch the funds because the boss’s assistant will be here today to review the restaurant’s income. I can’t manipulate the numbers right now.” “That’s disappointing.” Carlson suddenly stepped out, his face twisted in irritation. “What are you doing here?!” “I’m here to deliver coffee to Mr. Adam,” Steve answered politely. “What’s going on, Mr. Carlson?” Adam followed Carlson out. His sharp gaze landed on Steve. “Why are you standin
Chapter 157 - Public Humiliation
Steve ignored his coworker’s earlier warning. “Probably just some workplace drama,” he muttered to himself. He didn’t have time for vague concerns. His focus was on completing his daily mission and earning enough System Coins to rebuild Alvarez Corp. It was 10 PM, and the restaurant was still buzzing with activity. Steve hustled between tables, delivering food and drinks to guests. Meanwhile, Adam watched him closely from his office monitor, a sly grin creeping across his face. “Step one is done,” Adam murmured, recalling his meticulously planned scheme. “Now, let’s see how far you can fall, Steve.” As he exited his office, a distinguished man entered the restaurant. The man, in his mid-50s, wore an expensive suit that exuded wealth and power. Adam immediately stepped forward to personally greet the guest and escorted him to the VIP area. “Steve!” Adam’s authoritative voice called out. “Yes, sir?” Steve quickly approached, balancing a tray in his hands. “This is Mr. Carl
Chapter 156 - A Troublesome Mission
Steve held a small chip, no bigger than a memory card, in his hand. His face lit up with triumph as he reflected on everything he had endured to acquire it. It had been a month since that bloody incident that almost cost him his life. "With this, I don’t have to fear anyone anymore," he murmured, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. "Now I can focus on rebuilding Alvarez Corp from scratch." But his thoughts were restless. The journey was far from over. The world he lived in—a battlefield of competition and betrayal—wouldn’t let him climb back up so easily. "System, give me a mission to earn money. I need funds to restart my company." [Understood, Mr. Alvarez.] A transparent screen popped up before him, displaying a new mission. [Daily Mission: Work as a waiter at Greyson Corp’s luxury restaurant.] Steve’s brow furrowed as he read the task. “What? A waiter? In a restaurant? That’s humiliating.” [Starting from the bottom is essential for you to gain System Coins and re
Chapter 155 - Impending Disaster
Stephen entered Alan’s underground base, flanked by ten highly trained bodyguards. Alan approached him just as Stephen stepped out of the elevator. “So, how did it go? Did you manage to extract the chip or system from his head?” “Yeah. Here it is.” Alan handed him a small box containing the chip. Stephen took it, opened it, and smirked with satisfaction. “Now, return my daughter,” Alan demanded firmly. “I’ll return her after I see Steve’s corpse,” Stephen replied coldly. “That wasn’t our deal!” Alan protested. “You seem nervous. Don’t tell me you’ve been colluding with Steve?” Stephen accused confidently. “If you want to see your daughter, just show me his dead body. That should be easy enough, shouldn’t it?” Alan clenched his fists in frustration. “You’re as much trouble as your father. Fine. Follow me.” Stephen trailed Alan into an operating room. Alan pulled back a sheet covering Steve’s lifeless body. His face was pale and still. Stephen reached out to check the
Chapter 154 - A Deception
Stephen sipped his coffee, his sharp eyes locked on the monitor in front of him. The screen displayed a chaotic shootout between Steve, Alan, and a group of armed men. A sly smirk curled on his lips. “I’m certain Alan will pull it off,” Stephen chuckled darkly. If Alan managed to seize Steve’s system, he would have no rivals left, and his father’s revenge would finally be complete. ‘With this, I’ll reclaim my title as the richest man in the world,’ he thought smugly. He then turned his attention to the woman tied up beside him. Her hands and feet were bound, and her mouth was sealed with duct tape. “What do you think? Will Steve win and save you, or will he die a miserable death at Alan’s hands?” Stephen sneered at Cassandra. Cassandra squirmed against her restraints, mumbling angrily through the tape. Her furious expression made Stephen laugh mockingly. “Speak up! I can’t hear you, idiot,” he taunted. ‘You bastard!’ Cassandra cursed silently. ‘I need to escape before Steve
