Three months later.Thousands of camera flashes flickered as Steve prepared to cut the ribbon in front of an Alvarez Corp car factory. To his left and right stood Felix and Billie.Celebrities, models, singers, and other business people had come to celebrate the grand opening."Today, I'm inaugurating the Alvarez Corp factory building!" Steve cut the ribbon, prompting thunderous applause.Not far from the inauguration ceremony, a black sports car was on display. A top model stood beside it wearing a black dress with a thigh-slit, revealing her smooth, tan thighs.Steve explained the advantages of the car to guests and journalists. He deliberately invited many celebrities to promote his latest product to them. If one of them buys it and it becomes public knowledge, the car, Briavs, which stands for Brielle-Alvarez, will attract much attention."Only 500 of these cars will be produced," said Steve politely and charmingly. Therefore, within two hours, 500 cars were sold. Business people
"Can you produce this vaccine?" Steve handed a document to a middle-aged man, a former doctor at one of the top hospitals in Los Angeles. "How do you know about me and my home address?" Caleb frowned in surprise. "That's not important right now." Steve looked at Caleb gently. "I'm here to restore your fame after you were banished from the hospital that once honored you because Kenny took your prescription." "How did you know about that? Because no one believed me back then!" Caleb was wide-eyed. The female doctor Steve had targeted was named Kenny. The woman's memories were absorbed when he used the Absorbent Item. "You don't need to know about that." Steve tried to change the subject of conversation. "I love justice. That's why I want to help you." Caleb snorted heavily. "I'm not interested in being a doctor anymore." "But the honor you'll receive will outweigh the one Kenny took from you. I've already formulated this vaccine, and you must develop it to make it viable for huma
"What did you want to see me for?" Steve looked coldly at Jacob, who was sitting in front of him. They were now in Steve's office at Alvarez Corp."I want to work with you."Steve raised a bow. "Are you kidding me? Don't you hate me so much?"Jacob sighed heavily. "Right now, I need money for my younger sister's plastic surgery. Agatha advised me to work with you because you are her lover, the only person to help us." He lied."I see. How much money do you need?" "I don't need money.""So?" "I want to work in your office."Steve was wide-eyed. "Are you serious?"Jacob chuckled sadly. "Why are you so surprised? Does that sound weird? Ah, of course, it's extraordinary because I once hated you so much, even antagonized you. But now I'm begging you. Destiny is unpredictable, right?"Steve was concerned about Jacob's life now. Although he was still annoyed at his brother for tarnishing Sarah, that was due to the influence of Edgar's upbringing."Where's your father?""Do you mean our fat
"Thanks for your advice," said Steve. "I'll leave the building of the new cell phone brand to you while I design the cell phone." "Can you make a cell phone?" Jacob mocked. "You shouldn't underestimate me. I'm an expert in any field." Steve smiled smugly. "Whatever you." After Jacob left, Steve stared at the closed door suspiciously. "Who is Lukas?" Although Steve was not close to Jacob, he knew his brother had no close friends. "I have to investigate." Steve called Billie to come to his office after class. After waiting for hours, the pierced woman finally arrived. "What did you call me for?" "Can you design a cell phone machine?" "I can't. I can only build car engines and stuff, not electronics." Steve snorted heavily. "If you need it, I have a friend who can design cell phones." "That's good." Steve smiled brightly. He knew Billie was reliable. "Tell him to come here. I need him." "Okay. I'll call her." An hour later, someone entered the room. "Alvarez, this is my f
"Don't mind me, Steve." Sarah smiled as her ex-husband looked indecisive and depressed. Even though Steve loved her, Sarah didn't want him to choose her."You deserve the best," Sarah added."Sarah, I...." Steve seemed strangled, finding it difficult to express his feelings."Steve! Hurry up and do it!""You're noisy! Give me time to think!" Steve closed his eyes tightly, trying to consider. Brielle waited expectantly, making him smile happily. She was sure Steve would choose her because, during her stay with Steve, she had done her best to steal his heart."I choose Sarah," Steve replied firmly. "No matter what, I will love her. Because she was the only woman who took me in when I had nothing."Brielle's expression turned grim. A look of hatred was in her blue eyes. Despite her disappointment, Ellen smiled. "That's a good choice." Cassandra was satisfied with Steve's decision. In her opinion, Sarah was a good and loyal woman."Now, you listen carefully." Cassandra gave Brielle and
"Finally, I can kill Alvarez without having to touch him." Marco laughed evilly while staring at the red transparent screen before him. "You're so amazing, System. I didn't think I could buy the item I've been dreaming of all this time." Marco had just purchased the item Blocking System to attack Steve. The item could only be bought if it reached Evil. "I've waited decades for this moment. Now I can watch the system virus eat away at those shitty system users like cancer." "If Steve dies, there will be no more competition for me. I can rule the world!" *** "Argh!" Steve grabbed his hair as the system's voice kept ringing in his ears. [You don't deserve to live!] [You should die] Steve spontaneously grabbed a vase of flowers on his desk and smashed it against his head. "Will you shut up, damn it?!" However, there was no sign that the flat female voice would stop. "What should I do?! I don't want to die and lose all my hard-earned wealth!" Steve was frustrated that he co
Felix couldn't laugh like before at Steve's frustration. He was swept up in his boss's despair. "How did that happen?" Felix asked sadly. "Why did that system of wealth turn against you when it was supposed to bring you happiness?" "I suspect my system has a system virus." Steve surmised, staring coldly at the ceiling of his room. Felix was silent, not knowing what to answer as his knowledge of systems was minimal. He had never even heard of a wealth system in the world, although he had read about it in some novels and comics. "Then, do you know how to deal with the virus? Does the system work like a computer?" Felix asked seriously. He was determined to save Steve. Steve shook his head. "I don't know. If I knew how to solve it, I wouldn't have asked for your opinion," he replied exasperatedly. "You're right." Felix rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Even so, you must know how the system works." Steve reflected on his experience with the system. "The system's job is to give me miss
"I still have a little money in my savings from working as an artist bodyguard. You can use the money to rent an apartment.""But-""You can replace my money when you become successful again, Mr. Alvarez." Felix smiled sincerely as he handed his former boss his atm card.Steve was touched. "Thank you very much. I promise to reimburse you.""I'll wait for that day."****A few days later, Steve's life was no longer the same. The man looked at his appearance in the mirror sadly. He wore a white shirt, red forehead, and long black pants. Today, he would find a job to provide for his family."You're so handsome today, darling." Steve was surprised when Sarah suddenly hugged him from behind. Even though he was broke, he wasn't alone like he used to be."Thank you, darling.""Are you going to go look for a job?"Steve nodded, then turned to Sarah. "Wish me luck."Sarah nodded encouragingly. "I'm always praying for you. I'll also look for a job to help you.""No need! Work is a man's job!"
