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
Agatha cried hysterically when she heard the gunshot. Unfortunately, she could not see what was happening because her head was covered with a cloth.Steve touched his bullet-pierced shoulder. He grimaced softly as he looked down at his bloodied hand. Robin grinned with satisfaction at the artwork on the conglomerate man's shoulder. "I warned you not to bother me, Mr. Alvarez, but you were stubborn.""You fool!" Jacob swore. "You should have prepared yourself with weapons or bulletproof armor before fighting! Don't you ever learn from your mistakes?!"When the shots were fired, people immediately ran for their lives, so the street was tranquil.Steve laughed, making the ten bandits frown in surprise, included Jacob."How was it? Was my acting good?" "Impossible."DOR!Robin shot Steve again and hit his heart. "This time, you'll die!"Steve still showed his annoying smile. "Dead?"Jacob was surprised. 'Is he already wearing bulletproof armor?' The shirt was so thin that it exposed S
"Quickly do something to save Agatha, you idiot!" Steve glared at the doctors and nurses who were watching him. Fearfully, they carried Agatha to the ICU room. SLAP! Steve slapped Audrey. His slap echoed in the building, making everyone turn their heads to them. He didn't care if Audrey was a woman who men should protect. Audrey held her cheeks as she stared at Steve in disbelief. "How dare you slap me, Steve! Have you forgotten that I'm your future wife?!" "You deserve that even more than a slap!" Steve's chest rose and fell with raging anger. Audrey's heart hurt. How could Steve slap her for another woman? "How dare you defend Agatha over me! Do you love her?!" "Of course!" Cassandra was astonished, while Audrey was furious. "You're such an asshole! How many women do you love besides me?!" "I defended Agatha because she's my younger sister!" Audrey was gawked. "Your younger sister? Are you kidding me?" She chuckled sarcastically. "Everyone already knows that Agatha is
Steve followed Captain Nico to Mike's isolation room. When they entered, a psychologist was calming him down."Sorry, Mr. Mike." Captain Nico smiled a little. "Can I talk to you for a moment?" Claudia, the beautiful woman wearing a white blazer, immediately stood up and took Captain Nico a little away from Mike."I'm sorry, Captain Nico. Mike is traumatized by the explosion. He's constantly crying and can't be questioned right now. I hope you understand." Claudia explained."Mr. Alvarez, the owner of Alvarez Corp, wants to talk to Mike. It's very important. Just for a moment." Claudia sighed heavily, then nodded. "All right, but only five minutes, and don't push Mike too much if he doesn't want to answer."Captain Nico nodded obediently, then walked over to Steve and relayed Claudina's message."You don't have to worry. I understand."After that, Captain Nico and Claudina locked the door, leaving Steve and Mike alone.Mike just sat with a blank stare. He was a forty-year-old man wit
Steve checked the Market System and found many valuable items for his mission. But, unfortunately, he had no points because he had used them up to help Agatha. Steve regretted that he had always relied entirely on items. He shouldn't have done that. He also had to increase his strength. "System, give me a daily mission to earn creativity points." [You don't have to wait for a mission from me to do good, Mr. Steve. You can do ten good deeds every day, and I will reward you accordingly] "I see." Steve was relieved to hear that. "Show me my status stats." [Alright, Mr. Steve] There was a constantly rotating gray circle on the transparent screen.

Steve returned to his apartment after taking Marie and the children back to the orphanage. "Welcome, Mr. Alvarez." Felix bowed respectfully as his boss entered. The man knew the password to Steve's apartment. "What's happened?" Steve didn't want to make small talk. Felix's arrival must have had an important purpose. "I have some more bad news to tell you." "What is it?" Steve mentally prepared himself for Felix's report. "Cassandra's private plane has lost contact." "What?!" Steve gawked. "Are you kidding me?!" "Of course, not. The airport reported that Cassandra's plane lost contact a few hours ago. However, upon investigation, the plane did not crash." "Then, where is the plane located now?!" "We are tracking it, Mr. Alvarez. But I suspect that someone has hijacked the plane." "FUCK!" Steve punched the wall until it cracked. He didn't expect Cassandra to be the mystery man's next target, even though he had hired professional bodyguards to escort Cassandra. "Why is he targ
"Stop underestimating me, damn it! Get out of here if you're belittling me as a cop!" Captain Nico couldn't contain his anger because Steve had trampled on his pride. "I'm just stating the facts! Why are you swearing at me?!" Steve protested. He was in an unstable mood, so he was easily offended. "How dare you challenge me!" "Why would I be afraid of a cop who can't protect his people?!" "YOU...!" Captain Nico came forward to slap Steve. "Calm down, Mr. Alvarez!" Felix quickly restrained Steve as he was about to punch Captain Nico. Felix quickly coaxed Steve out to calm down. He sat on the hospital benches available in every corridor. "He's an asshole! Steve wiped the drops of sweat from his chin roughly. "I was just telling him the facts!" "Why are you so sure of your opinion, Mr. Alvarez? Do you know the culprit?" Steve snorted in annoyance, finding it hard to understand what he was saying. Did he have to tell Felix about the system? After all, Felix had done him an excel
