It was almost midnight as Andrew was still in the office, examining the company's financial ledgers, analyzing the profits and losses incurred over the previous years.

"Hmmm... Besides the mismanagement, it appears that the sales of Prime Stone have significantly declined. It seems the mining sites we currently have are no longer valuable," Andrew murmured, his gaze fixed on the map laid out on his desk.

Stellarite Resources, a mining company specializing in rare orbs, had suffered due to the previous owner's poor decision-making when acquiring mining locations. Initially, they had struck gold with Prime Stone, a highly sought-after gem with properties comparable to diamonds. However, as the market became saturated with Prime Stone, sales plummeted, rendering it unprofitable for the company.

"I believe it's time to diversify. Dad, you mentioned a rare stone that could revolutionize our business," Andrew said aloud as a holographic projection of his father materialized before him.

    Andrew had been working throughout the night, exhausted to the point of sleeping on his desk amidst the scattered ledgers. Suddenly, a knock on the door jolted him awake, causing him to stir immediately."Yaaah!" Andrew yawned, stretching his body as he tried to shake off the drowsiness. Just then, he heard another knock on the door, grabbing his attention."Come in," he called out, and the door swung open, revealing the receptionist who had been smoking the previous day. She seemed timid as her gaze met Andrew's."Good morning, sir," she greeted, her voice trembling slightly."Good morning, Miss..." Andrew's eyes fixed upon her, silently urging her to reveal her name."Sorry, sir... My name is Mira," she responded, her voice barely above a whisper."Nice to meet you, Miss Mira," Andrew replied, his tone polite but firm. "And please, I prefer not to see anyone smoking in the office environment.""Yes, sir," Mira replied, nodding her head immediately, understanding the expectation."I

    It was already 10 PM, and Andrew drove along the road that led to the Telsa Restaurant. All eyes were fixated on the car as it gracefully pulled into the parking space. "Is that the latest edition of the Mercedes-Benz?" whispered one of the passersby. "He must really be very rich" the others began to chat amongst themselves. Meanwhile, Inside the black car, Andrew remained hidden from view, leaving everyone present to ponder about the mysterious billionaire who had arrived. Finally, Andrew emerged from the car, capturing the attention of the entire vicinity. As he stepped out, the first thing that caught everyone's gaze were his polished black loafers.

    "Hannah! Hannah! Wait up!" Andrew called out desperately, rushing towards her, hoping for a chance to apologize and seek her forgiveness.However, his pursuit was abruptly interrupted as he found himself face-to-face with Stanley and a group of his college associates. Andrew halted in his tracks, confronted by their presence and their attempts to impede his progress."Well, well, well! Look who we have here! The trash kid in a fancy suit," Stanley sneered, taking a sip, his words laced with contempt.Stanley proceeded to draw the attention of the security guards, summoning one to approach Andrew under his command."And isn't that the same outfit Hannah is wearing?" chimed in one of Stanley's cohorts, emphasizing the similarity. "I suppose it's a coincidence... or perhaps more than that.""I can't help but wonder how you managed to gain entry here. You're clearly from a lower socioeconomic background, and this event isn't meant for people like you," another of Stanley's friends mocked,

    Present...."Security, remove him from here," Stanley barked, attempting to confront Andrew by instructing the security personnel.Meanwhile, Mr. Darren, who recognized Andrew from a distance, murmured to himself, "Isn't that the young man who saved my life?" Intrigued, he approached Andrew, only to be taken aback by the sight of him being surrounded by security.Given the large number of people present, Andrew's predicament didn't draw much attention. Confused and equally surprised by the situation unfolding before him, Darren uttered to himself, "What is going on?"Determined to intervene, Darren swiftly maneuvered through the crowd, reaching Andrew's side. With a firm tone, he addressed the imposing security guards, saying, "Who do you think you're about to eject?" The guards were taken aback, realizing that the person issuing the command was their own general manager.Momentarily stunned, they hesitated and retreated, their confidence shaken."I am addressing all of you!

    Andrew confidently raised his hands, unafraid of the challenge that lay ahead."I will!" he declared, his voice resounding through the dense crowd, leaving everyone stunned."This fool actually believes he can challenge Ethan... one of the top fighters? Haha, he must be joking," Stanley chuckled, relieved that someone else would take revenge on Andrew instead of him.Ethan, equally surprised by Andrew's boldness, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "He doesn't have an aura of an expert, he will just be a weak brat that is trying to at strong" Ethan drew conclusions on Andrew.Hannah, whom Andrew had been searching for, stood silently in a corner, watching him with astonishment."What does he think he's doing? Why would he put himself in such danger?" Hannah wondered, her gaze fixed on Andrew.Mr. Nelson Tesla, unaware of Andrew's martial arts background, found himself intrigued by the mysterious young man."Hmm, I never knew he was a fighter too. This boy truly stands out," Mr. Nelso

    Andrew's countermove dealt a devastating blow to Ethan's ego. The thought of losing to someone like Andrew, who had dismissed him as a mere novice, was a source of deep shame for Ethan."I suggest you pick up the pace," Andrew indirectly insulted Ethan, his words stinging. Ethan stood tall, his face twitching with anger, unable to find a suitable retort. It frustrated him to no end that Andrew held the upper hand in their exchange.Determined to turn the tables, Ethan decided to unleash a killer move. After all, Andrew had proclaimed himself to be strong. "Now I see that I underestimated you. Brace yourself for my ultimate strike," Ethan declared, wasting no time. He swiftly assumed a Taichi stance, bending his hands and positioning his knuckles forward, while drawing his other leg backward."Hahaha! The young generation can even master the legendary Praying Parties style," Mr. Nelson chuckled, astounded by the display."You're absolutely right, Nelson. It seems that Andrew who claime

Meanwhile, Stanley stood there with a wide grin, thoroughly enjoying the unexpected twist.Hannah's father, taken aback by her sudden declaration, couldn't believe what he was hearing. He knew Hannah wasn't the type to engage in physical confrontations. "What are you thinking, Hannah?" Mr. Nelson shouted, his anger evident. He believed that maybe Hannah had consumed one too many drinks to be thinking this way.Andrew remained frozen, his mind racing to process the unexpected challenge. "If this is about what happened before, let's just forget about it. I promise it won't happen again. I'm truly sorry," Andrew attempted to clarify, hoping to ease the tension in the air."You can change your decision. It's not too late," the presenter offered, attemptin

"I can see that you're taken aback by finding yourself in this situation," Mr. Nelson remarked, seeking confirmation from Andrew. Andrew nodded in response, his uncertainty palpable. He remained unsure of the true nature of the circumstances unfolding before him. "I observed your fighting skills, and I must admit that you possess remarkable talent, especially considering your young age," Mr. Nelson continued. "The reason I invited you here today is because I would like you to join my friend at his martial arts academy.

    Zoro exchanged glances between his girlfriend and Andrew, noticing the intensity in Andrew’s eyes. It was clear that Andrew wasn’t joking.Zoro had never been in a situation like this before, and the atmosphere alone told him that Andrew was someone to be feared."Do you even know who I am right now?" Andrew asked, his voice cold and commanding as he noticed Zoro’s hesitation."You should know," Andrew continued, leaning forward, "I’m not just Andrew—I’m also the underground boss of the Crimson Gang. You’d better think twice before messing with me."As if to punctuate his words, Andrew stood up and stomped hard on Zoro’s foot, causing him to wince in pain."I knew it," Andrew said, smirking as he observed Zoro’s face. "You’re useless to me. But now I also know the truth."Andrew had a talent for reading people, and Zoro’s reaction confirmed his suspicions.

If he had known, he would have charged double for the job.He briefly considered taking the money and walking away, but his reputation meant everything to him. Backing out of the fight with Andrew would be a devastating blow to his pride, something he couldn’t afford to let happen.“We’ve wasted enough time talking! To hell with this—it's getting boring,” Andrew said sharply, a hint of a smirk on his face. “I’ll take care of you, and my girlfriend can handle yours.

    Andrew had just finished setting up the auction house and was leaving with Hannah, who had been working alongside him all day. It was already 11 p.m., a testament to how hard they had both worked, despite Andrew being the boss.“Hannah, thanks for your help,” Andrew said with a warm smile. She had been incredibly supportive, and despite the argument they’d had earlier, they managed to keep their personal issues separate from their work. After all, she was not only his girlfriend but also his manager.“You don’t have to thank me. Are you forgetting I’m your employee?” Hannah replied with a smile, casually glancing at him as they walked together.“Why wouldn’t I appreciate my girlfriend?” Andrew teased.Hearing that, Hannah’s heart swelled with happiness, and a faint blush crept up her cheeks. Before she could respond, the sound of a gunshot tore through the air.“Hannah, watch out!” Andrew shouted, his instincts kicking in as he grabbed her by the waist. He dove to the ground, rolling

    One Week Later"I never expected your son-in-law to be this capable. I don’t think any young man his age could rival him," said a man in his fifties, holding a glass of wine. He took a sip as he turned to Mr. Telsa, Hannah’s father. They were enjoying drinks along with a few other friends."Hahaha! You flatter me, Henry. The boy is truly remarkable. Did I tell you he once helped a friend of mine win a major tournament? He also trained my daughter, who had no martial arts experience, turning her from a complete novice into a professional fighter capable of rivaling seasoned competitors. He’s someone who can’t be rivaled," Mr. Telsa said, proudly boasting about Andrew, Hannah’s boyfriend."You’ll surely be a proud grandfather soon," Martins, another man at the table, chimed in as he raised his glass. "I hope you can introduce me to one of Andrew’s friends. Even someone with half of his capability would be a blessing!" Martins was subtly trying to gain favor with Mr. Telsa."I’ll see wha

    Andrew had just finished watching the scientists demonstrate their latest creation when they approached him for his opinion."Sir, do they fit your expectations?" one of the doctors asked."Yes, they’re perfectly fine. We’ll begin the auction next week," Andrew said, smiling confidently. "Keep refining them, and I’d like you to reach out to potential high-profile buyers."Andrew shook hands with the doctors, commending them for their hard work."Now, the advertisements for the discounts will naturally draw a large crowd to the mall. I’ll use that as the perfect platform to set the stage for the auction," Andrew thought to himself.As he stepped out of the laboratory, he was greeted by the sight of a massive crowd standing in line outside the mall. The reason? Andrew had slashed the prices of every item by 80%, effectively making them as affordable as giving them away for free. Unsurprisingly, the incredible discounts had attracted hordes of people."The first phase of the plan is work

    "Are you really the boss of Urban Oasis?" Nathan asked, with disbelief. He wanted to hear the truth directly from Andrew."Of course I am, and I don’t recall being friends with a pauper like you," Andrew replied with a calm smile as he stared at Nathan and his girlfriend."If you’ll excuse me, I have important work to do and no time to waste. I’m a very busy man," Andrew added, turning away. Before leaving, he whispered something to Sean.Nathan, still in denial, shouted after him, "Liar! You can’t be the boss. I don’t believe it! This must be some sort of joke. And frankly, I don’t need Urban Oasis—I can get a brand ambassador deal elsewhere, at a much better place than this dump!" His arrogance was unshaken, as if he didn’t care about the consequences of his words."Honey, don’t worry about them. One day, they’ll come begging you," his girlfriend said, trying to console him.Andrew, though irritated by their arrogance, wasn’t interested in wasting his energy on someone like Nathan.

    I'm The Boss

    One month later…Andrew stood in front of the shopping mall, observing the bustling crowd moving in and out. The mall was a thriving business venture, bringing in significant profits, and on top of that, he was reaping the benefits of the mines he had recently acquired.Leaning against a Porsche parked near his car, Andrew’s thoughts drifted to his past. He remembered the difficult days when he and his mother could barely afford three square meals. They had worked countless night shifts just to pay the bills, yet it was never enough.Now, in just three months, his life had transformed in ways he never imagined. He had risen to heights he once thought impossible. At such a young age, he was already a billionaire, possibly the youngest in the world. His numerous businesses generated substantial income daily, and he was about to embark on a project that would eclipse them all."Sean, are the devices ready?" Andrew asked as he made a call to his trusted assistant."Yes, sir. They’ve been

    Andrew stood at the site, admiring the three-story mall that now stood in stark contrast to the abandoned structure that had previously occupied the space. The transformation was extraordinary, and Andrew couldn’t help but marvel at the sleek, modern design of the new building.Sean, who had just stepped out from inside the mall, noticed Andrew’s admiring gaze and walked over to greet him."Apologies for keeping you waiting," Andrew said, bowing his head slightly, a hint of embarrassment in his tone. "You know how women can be; Hannah insisted I get a whole new set of clothes and rejected half of them before she was satisfied. It took me over an hour to finish up."Sean chuckled knowingly. "I completely understand, sir. My wife puts me through the same routine. It’s practically universal."Andrew sighed, then turned back to the building. "I have to say, you and the team did an exceptional job. I didn’t expect you to transform the place this quickly—just one month, and it looks brand n
