Steve entered a room that resembled a small stadium with a stage in the center. The stands were filled with conglomerates from all over the world. Steve sat at the very back, where there were no lights, so few people could see him.Today was an auction of oil and gas well, and other valuables in New York. Steve was relieved to have made it in. 'But I have to be careful of Jacob. He must be planning something bad for me.'[It was a reward for saving Jacob's life, so the system used him to help you]'I'm not sure he's helping me sincerely, even though I saved him. After all, I was forced to save him because I was kidnapped by his father. He would have done the same to me.'[Never mind. Just focus on doing good so that you keep getting rewarded]'I see.'Soon, the auction started.Steve ignored the auction items, waiting for the oil rig auction."Did you come here to buy the oil mine?" Steve was slightly surprised when Audrey sat beside him because he was too focused on listening."T
"It's impossible!" John's shout echoed through the room, making everyone curious. "What's wrong?" The guests urged John to explain what was going on. "We just received a transfer from Mr. Alvarez for 500 million dollars!" All the guests were shocked. "Mr. Alvarez?!" "Impossible! Didn't he die because of a hitman?" "Is it possible that the news is fake?" Jacob and Audrey were speechless. "Is Mr. Alvarez you, Mr. Steve?" John's eyes fell on the proudly smiling man. His voice sounded polite, not like before. "Yes. It's me." All the guests were like lightning in the daytime hearing that. They glared, and their mouths opened wide in disbelief. Steve took the initiative to come forward and climb the stage. As he walked, all pairs of eyes followed him to the stage in awe and shock. "I am Mr. Alvarez. I would like to clarify the false news that has been circulating." The guests and reporters focused on Steve's words. "I had my assistant, Jack, claiming to be me. However, he
"Of course not. Why would I do that to a man who helped me and my grandfather?" Cassandra smiled softly. "You're weird today. Did you eat something wrong?" Cassandra chuckled. "What's weird about me?" 'You're not like the Cassandra I know. The Cassandra I rarely know compliments me." "Really? I didn't realize that." The woman leaned closer to Steve with a seductive smile. "Would you like me to compliment you, Mr. Alvarez?" Steve didn't know whether to be pleased or suspicious. He was happy that Cassandra had been friendly him. However, on the other hand, she was like a stranger. "No need." Steve focused on eating the steak that had been served. "By the way, where did you get that much money, Steve?" "You don't need to know. Most importantly, I've returned Charles Corp to you." "Was I wrong to want to get to know you?" Cassandra pouted. "I want to learn many things from you about business." "There's one thing you have to do." "What's that?" "Never work with a traitor." Stev
[Mr. Steve, stop it! You can't kill anyone again!] "Don't manage me, damn it! I don't need you anymore! Get away from me!" [If you kill Steve, then the System will also retaliate against you] 'What do you mean?' [I'll kill everyone you love] 'You only gave me money, not the people I love. So you have no right to take it from me!' [I have the right to do it as a punishment for you. Stop right now, or I'll do it] 'Bastard!' Steve was annoyed but couldn't fight back. He quickly left the place before Jacob shot him. Steve drove to the hospital and took Audrey to the emergency room. "Save her! At all costs!" Steve ordered. "All right, Mister." The nurse rushed in and locked the door. Steve sat down in an available chair near the emergency room door. He sighed heavily, regretting his decision. 'I shouldn't have hurt her.' At that moment, Steve was frantic and didn't think about the consequences because he feared Cassandra and Sarah being harmed. [System has Ended] The transpa
Crash! Steve's words were interrupted by breaking glass from outside his room. Cassandra and Steve rushed out to check what had happened, and they found a woman picking up the shards of a flower vase. "Sarah?" Cassandra was shocked. "What happened?" Steve was worried. "I-I'm sorry. I accidentally knocked over this vase." Sarah's voice sounded hoarse, like she had just cried. "I wi clean it up right aw ... Ouch!" Sarah winced as a piece of glass scraped her finger. "Your finger is bleeding!" Steve reflexively grabbed Sarah's hand and sucked the blood flowing on her finger. "I'm fine. Don't mind me anymore." Sarah quickly pulled her hand away from Steve's lips, and the hurried to her room before her cried burst out. Steve stared at Sarah sadly as she left. Her words broke his heart. "I'm sure Sarah heard our conversation, Steve," Cassandra said curtly while crossing her arms in front of her chest. "Now, are you sure you want to marry Audrey?" "I can't take my words back fro
Agatha Lily is a famous 22-year-old singer and actress. She is famous for her beauty, melodious voice, acting talent, and kind heart. She has been awarded the best singer and actress in the past year. The public increasingly loves her because she consistently participates in helping people who are suffering and poor. "Tsk! Who dares to spread that fake news?! There is no way I would auction off my virginity to any man, even if he is handsome and a tycoon." Agatha swore angrily as she read through the nasty comments on her social media account. Behind her, the hair stylist was busy styling the woman's blonde hair. "Calm down, Babe. It's just a rumor. You should thank the person who spread the fake news for making you more famous." Jimmy, her assistant, laughed softly. "I don't want to be famous for trashy news like that! I want to be famous for my talent and kindness!" Agatha protested. "At least more people will come to your open donation event." Even though it was true, Agat
Whispers could be heard among the guests when a young man appeared, offering fantasy value.The Host gaped when he heard that. One hundred million dollars was a fantastic nominal. Who would willingly waste money on something useless? Although Agatha was beautiful, it was not worth the price."What did he come here for? Is he not satisfied with marrying that beautiful woman yet?" sneered one of the men."I heard he's going to marry Audrey, a beautiful and intelligent woman admired by many wealthy businessmen."Steve strode confidently onto the stage. He smiled charmingly at the Host. "Am I the rightful winner?"The Host looked at the guests. "Would anyone like to offer a higher price than Mr. Alvarez?"Everyone was silent.The Host smiled back at Steve. "You are the rightful winner, Mr. Alvarez. You can transfer the money to Miss. Agatha's account.""Okay."Agatha stared at her phone, waiting for the notification from her bank account. Shortly after, the notification came.She checked
After successfully breaking the car's glass, a masked man forcibly opened the door and dragged Agatha out violently."Let me go, who are you?!" Agatha thrashed. "Alvarez, help me!" She reached out to grab Steve's hand but to no avail."Fu*k off!" Steve rushed out and chased after the ten perpetrators. "Let her go!"However, the ten mysterious men did not respond to Steve and continued walking towards their car.Steve picked up a piece of wood and hit one of the kidnappers on the head, but the villain did not groan in pain or anger.'Shit! Who are they? Why are they so strong? And, why are the just after Agatha? Are they from her haters?' He muttered to himself."Help me, Mr. Alvarez!"Steve pulled Agatha's hand to grab her back, but one of the men pushed him and stomped on his leg until it broke."ARGH!!!" The man rolled around in pain on the ground."Alvarez!" Agatha screamed."You have no right to enjoy Agatha's body because she belongs to our Boss, Mr. Alvarez. If you get in the w
