"Mr. Arnold, please don't do that. We don't want to live in prison," begged one of the men still wearing the typical black uniform of the guards. He looked down and refrained from crying. She was terrified and didn't want to imagine that she would have to live behind bars.Not only him, but even Billy clasped his hands. "Sir, we will fix this and never do it again. Please forgive us. We are guilty." There was no other way but to beg. He was willing to be fired as long as he didn't go to jail. That would worsen his record, and it would not be easy to get a new job when he was released."Please give us a second chance," begged the others without exception.Arnold shook his head. He couldn't spare them. "You've made a terrible mistake." As he said this, he could see that the workers were turning pale and trembling. He felt a little bad, but it wasn't in his power."It's not me you're hurting, it's Mr. Marco. You should apologise to him, not me." Afterwards, he saw that his subordinates,
After completing his first lap to warm up with the other drivers, Marco got out for a quick look around. Before he got back into his car and drove around the area, it felt pretty good, as he was able to release his stress and let it out by driving above the average speed on the highway. The adrenaline rush was intense, and it took away some of the tiredness that had been hanging over him for some time.Later, when he was done with all his free spins, Marco got out and found Arnold, the manager of the place, waiting for him with a big smile. The man greeted Marco, Good afternoon, Mr. Marco. Are you enjoying your time here?"Marco gave a small nod without answering. He readjusted the folds of his long shirt until it was a little neater. And then, Marco heard that Arnold was speaking to him again, "I am pleased if Mr. Marco is enjoying his time here. You can choose whatever you want to try. We've also set up a monitor room in case Mr. Marco wants to try watching the drivers racing on ano
At a moderate speed, Marco's car cut through the crowded streets at lunchtime like this. The sun was shining directly overhead, so the heat felt like it was burning his skin. Now, Marco's car stopped in front of a very famous luxury restaurant in Horizon Edge.At that moment, Irene's eyes widened, and she was quite surprised. The restaurant Marco had chosen was the best restaurant with a menu that was quite fantastic. Their service was outstanding, and it was said that this restaurant called Luxe Garment Haven had the most expensive wine among other restaurants.It was still unbelievable to Irene that this man she had just met would take her to such a fantastic place. There was no way she would spend a million dollars for a single meal at a place with such a classy feel. Even the cars lined up in the parking lot looked expensive and cost billions. The diners here must be rich people who don't hesitate to spend money on a plate of the highest quality food, even if it would take a lot o
Irene was entirely surprised by the woman's shout. The woman looked at the figure before her and said, "You should compensate me for this property of yours. Since it was you who bumped into me earlier." At this moment, they were alone right in front of the bathroom exit. No other woman was there even to wash her hands.Irene was unsure she was standing in a safe place, nor did she flick until this woman in front of her bumped into her from behind. And there was the incident of the powder scattering on the floor. According to Irene, she did nothing wrong. It was this woman who wasn't careful enough, so she shouldn't be held responsible for the problem. It didn't make sense that this strange woman would ask her for compensation.The woman, whose name was Ruby, naturally couldn't accept what Irene said. She barked loudly, "Hey, my powder broke because of you!" She insisted that it was Irene's fault and that she should pay for it.But then, Ruby paused and looked at Irene's unusual appear
Seeing Marco by her side, Irene became a little uncomfortable. She fidgeted and tucked the slightly dangling strands of hair behind her ears. Her eyes occasionally looked at Marco. And her lips suddenly became so dry that she had to wet them repeatedly. For some reason, she felt she was now in a difficult situation. She also embarrasses Marco because of her situation right now.To be honest, Irene felt very guilty for the man beside her. Marco had taken her to lunch in such a luxurious place, but she had thrown a tantrum and was now embarrassing him. It felt like Irene had no face left to face Marco. Blaming herself a little. If only she had gone to the bathroom and put up with her stomachache. Perhaps this commotion would never have happened.Looking at Irene, who was silent, Marco questioned her again. "What exactly happened?" He felt that something was wrong here. Irene looked agitated, and the woman could not stand still by her side. Honestly, the confident gleam in her eyes seeme
Irene felt uneasy about what would happen next. One million dollars was a considerable amount that she could not possibly pay. Irene didn't have that much money. She felt dizzy and wanted to protest. Rasnaya, it was doubtful that there was such an expensive powder. Yes, or maybe what Ruby said was true. Because she was poor, she didn't know there was such a costly thing to sweep her face."Marco," Irene called in a low voice. She saw Marco turn his head and raise one eyebrow, waiting for Irene to speak. The woman swallowed and let out a long breath. "You shouldn't have done that. I want that woman to apologize because she made this accusation. You don't need to spend that much money."But Marco replied casually, "And that's why we have to do this gamble. " Irene frowned at Marco's answer. She didn't quite understand why they had to do it and risk so much money. If she were found guilty, then she would have to pay a lot of money. Although Marco had promised to help pay for it, she stil
At this moment, Marco was still driving his car with Irene by his side. The two seemed to be enjoying the beautiful afternoon behind the car's glass that reflected the orange sunlight. Today's events were completely beyond her prediction. She thought that her meeting with Marco would be an ordinary introduction without any significant events in it. And she was wrong. Something astonishing had just happened in her life.The wind was blowing quite strongly when Irene decided to open the car window. It made her hair fly back, and she smiled happily. And the next second, Irene turned to Marco and said, "Whenever you need my help, I will try to help you." It wasn't just talk. Irene would keep her promise whenever Marco needed her. The lesson she learned today would not be easy to forget.Marco just nodded slightly and remained focused on the steering wheel in his hands. At that moment, Irene still felt so amazed because besides being clever, Marco was also good at driving a racing car. The
The sun was almost up when Jason rode down the street on his old motorcycle. He was a food delivery man who had once known Marco even though they didn't get along. The man's face looked radiant with a smile that was so wide.The man muttered, "Finally, it's time for payday." He had been waiting for this day with great excitement since last night. Finally, he could buy chicken for dinner. He was tired of saving money by purchasing instant noodles to keep his stomach from starving.The man whistled all the way. But as he turned the corner, he accidentally hit a car that had stopped nearby. Suddenly, he became so panicked that he jumped down from his motorcycle."I'm sorry, sir!" Jason said while bowing his body. And apparently, the man who owned the car didn't just accept Jason's apology. He glared and looked at the back of his vehicle that Jason had hit."Are you crazy?" the man asked, snapping in a high tone. "You think by apologizing, you can return my car to its original smoothness?
