Isabella carried out her plan well. She approached Michael, visited often and gave many gifts to her grandfather to smooth the way of her plan. However, the plan that had been drawn up could not run smoothly because now Charles lived in the Duke's family mansion. Isabella tried to be careful when approaching Michael. "Grandpa, would you like me to make you a drink?" "Yes. Would you mind making a drink for me? You can just tell the servant to make it for you." "That's fine. I don't have anything to do anyway. I just want to make you happy."Michael, who felt that Isabella was very attentive, did not have the slightest suspicion. He thought that Isabella was craving for affection because she had no one but him. "Yes. Make me some orange juice. It seems that drinking fresh juice like that, can make my day more colorful." "Okay Grandpa, I'll make it first." Isabella with her sweet smile made Orange juice for her grandfather. Arriving in the kitchen Isabella took the ingredien
"Bugh...." The sound of falling objects was heard so loudly from inside Michael's room that it startled everyone, especially Charles who was arguing with Isabella. "What is it?" Charles immediately ran to his grandfather's room followed by everyone who was gathered earlier. Charles headed for his grandfather's room after hearing a loud noise. This was followed by Isabella. When he opened the door, Charles was very surprised to see Elizabeth in his grandfather's room which was already unlocked. "Elizabeth, what are you doing here?" Charles was really surprised when he saw the scene that was presented in front of his eyes. There, Charles saw his grandfather slit his own throat and seemed to have died when he came because his grandfather's body looked very pale."Grandpa ...." Charles was in shock. He looked at Elizabeth with a look of disbelief in his eyes, as did Isabella who apparently followed Charles."Elizabeth, why are you here." Isabella wondered. "Elizabeth ... you...." He
Will stares at the tombstone with Michael's name on it without blinking. His mind went blank momentarily as he stared at the word and then exhaled loudly.Two years had passed since Michael's death, and Charles was not doing well. The events of two years ago made Charles sickly and weak.The breeze distracted Will, who was transfixed for a moment. He was concerned about Charles' condition and the man's company, which needed a successor."It's all because of that damn woman. If only Elizabeth-""There's no need to regret what happened," Will said quickly. He stares at the headstones of Michael and his parents without blinking.Charles let out a long, hard breath."I even made things easier," Charles said.It was Will's turn to exhale. He had often heard Charles express his guilt, which only worsened his condition. Will gripped the handles of Charles' wheelchair tightly."At least, in this situation, you still have hope," Will said, and then he turned his gaze to stare at the sky mixed w
“Babe, faster. I’m coming!” “Me too. Ugh!” Charles listened carefully and heard a sad sound coming from Isabella’s room.He had just returned from a night shift as a bodyguard and intended to surprise Isabella by bringing breakfast to his girlfriend. But it was not Isabella who was surprised, but he was after hearing the sound of male and female sighs from inside his girlfriend's room.“Whose sigh is that? Is Isabella making out with another man in her room? No, no way. Isabella only loves me, and she can’t be cheating on me.” Charles said while planting positive thoughts into his brain.“Isabella, open the door, Darling.” Charles knocked on the door of the room where his girlfriend lived. Isabella and Charles didn’t live in the same house. Isabella rented a house and gave Charles a key so he could come in. Charles lived in a room near where he works.When Charles knocked on the door, the sound of someone sighing stopped. This made Charles feel like something was wrong, so he knock
Charles tried to wake up, but his head hurt when he touched it.“Ugh! It hurts!” Charles grimaced in pain. “Where am I? Why am I in this place?” Charles saw a room that was painted bright blue and had some basic furniture in it.“Hey, are you awake?” A person entered the room with a bowl with smoke coming out of it.“Daniel, where is this? Why are you in this place too?” Charles asked in surprise. “This is my room. Isabella called me and asked me to pick you up in front of her house. but when I got there, you were hurt and passed out.” Daniel talked a lot about it.“What exactly is going on, Charl?” asked Daniel. Charles remembered breaking up with Isabel, which made him sad because he didn’t want to end their relationship.“You don’t need to cry over a cheap woman like Isabella, Charles. You should be grateful that you don’t have to be trapped in a marriage with a gold digger.” Daniel gave advice.He gave Charles a bowl of breakfast mush and told him to eat it right away.“Eat up.
“T-this is 100 million dollars? You’re suddenly rich, Charles!” Daniel yelled loudly and shook his friend's shoulder a bunch of times because he wanted to show that he wasn't just imagining things.“That’s right; it’s not a dream! I’m rich, Daniel! I’m rich!”Charles felt happy when he looked at Daniel. He never thought he would have so much money because he only worked part-time as a bodyguard at a fancy hotel. His salary was lower than his friends because he only worked part-time.After working part-time at night, he usually went back to work during the day as a bodyguard somewhere else. But he didn’t become a bodyguard in a good place; Charles was only in charge of guarding a school with very little salary.“I’m so glad you finally have some money, Charles. You no longer need to live in this cramped boarding room, nor do you need to prostrate in front of Isabel. You are rich now, Charles. You also have a bright future.” Daniel cheered happily. “Yes, I will prove that I also have a
“Come on, lick my shoe! Don’t talk big, Robby. Didn’t you say you’d kiss my shoe if I could give you a big tip? I never asked you to do it, but you offered it yourself. So, keep your word like a real man.” When Charles said something to Robby, Robby's face turned red, and he felt embarrassed for disagreeing with Charles.Robby was very surprised when Charles gave him 10 thousand dollars as a tip. It was a lot of money, even more than what Charles used to earn when he worked at the hotel."H-how? How can you give me this much tip money? You're joking, right." Robby was looking back and forth at his phone screen and then at Charles' feet.He felt scared and nervous. He didn’t want to lick Charles’ shoes because it would make him feel bad about himself. But he promised to do it, so now he has to face the consequences.“Come on, lick my shoes. Keep your promise, Robby.” "No! I don't want to! I'm sure this money you sent must have come from gambling or doing something bad, right?" Robby
“I don’t care! Whoever he is, get him out of this hotel! I don’t want to share a room with a poor person like him!” Deon got mad and yelled at the hotel manager. His face turned red with anger.“I can’t possibly expel Mr. Charles from here. I could get fired from this hotel!” “Who is he?” asked Isabella curiously. “That’s it; let’s not talk about it anymore. I just want him thrown out of here, Manager. Remember, I’m a VIP customer of this hotel. Don’t anger me, or this hotel will suffer the consequences!” Deon threatened the hotel manager. “No! I will not kick him out!” The manager talked to Charles, who was standing on his chair. The manager apologized for being mean and asked Charles to sit and eat his food. “Manager! Why don’t you obey my orders? I reiterate, expel that man and his friend from this hotel!” Deon was angry; he didn’t accept being ignored. "I'm sorry, Mr. Charles. Forgive me for asking you to leave this hotel. Had I known your grandfather was Mr. Michael, I can g
