Andrew's eyes widened in surprise as Hannah entered the office. "Hannah? What brings you here?" he asked, caught off guard by her unexpected presence.

Hannah offered a sheepish smile. "Well, I noticed the job posting online, although I might not be qualified, but I want to give it a trial" She paused, as she nervously said.

"I hope you don't mind that I decided to apply."

Andrew blinked, momentarily speechless. "No, not at all! I must say, I'm quite surprised, though." He leaned back in his chair.

Mira, sensing the change in the room, cleared her throat gently. "Sir, I would excuse myself so you can proceed with Miss Hannah's interview, sir?"

Andrew glanced at Mira, then back to Hannah. "Yes, of course. Please, have a seat." He gestured toward the dining table in his office to Hannah, his expression softening.

Hannah hesitated for a moment, scanning the room. "The dining table? Is this where the interview will take place?"

Andrew nodded, a warm smile gracing his face. "Yes. I find i

    Hannah couldn't believe her ears when Andrew mentioned the enormous amount of money involved. She found it hard to imagine that a small company like this could afford such a sum. Doubts started to creep into her mind, making her question the sincerity of Andrew's words. Andrew noticed the thoughtful expression on Hannah's face and smiled reassuringly. "I understand why you might be doubtful. It's difficult to believe that a company of our size could pay such a significant salary. But I assure you, we have the means to do so. The choice is yours. You can either walk away or decide to start working with us. I know you're a student and can only work part-time, but I'm still offering you a full-time salary." Andrew tried to address Hannah's concerns, taking into account her unique situation. As Andrew prepared to speak, a shocking turn of events took place. He noticed a red light moving around Hannah's body, and with his enhanced vision, he could see things from a distance. Reacting s

    Andrew burst through the window, sending shards of glass flying in all directions, as he tackled the sniper to the ground. The two men grappled fiercely, fighting for control. Andrew's enhanced strength granted him the upper hand, and he swiftly pinned the sniper beneath him, exerting a vice-like grip on the man's throat. "Who sent you?" Andrew demanded with authority. "Tell me the name of the company that hired you, or I assure you, you'll regret the day you took this job." Gasping for air, the sniper's eyes widened with fear. "I... I can't tell you. They'll kill me if I do." Andrew tightened his grip, his face only inches away from the sniper's. "And you think I won't kill you if you refuse to talk?" he growled. "This is your final chance. Who hired you?" The sniper's resolve crumbled under Andrew's intense glare. "Alright, alright! It was a small company... They paid me a fortune to eliminate you and the girl." Rage surged through Andrew's veins. "A company? Which company?" he

    Andrew’s eyes burned with rage as he glared at the assassin, who was now bound securely to a sturdy chair in the dimly lit basement. “Where is Hannah?” he demanded, his voice a low growl.The assassin, still groggy from the cold water Andrew had thrown on him, met Andrew’s gaze with a defiant sneer. “I told you, I don’t know,” he spat, though his bravado was starting to wane.Andrew's patience was wearing thin. He picked up a pair of pliers from a nearby table, holding them up so the assassin could see. “You will talk,” he said with chilling calmness, “or you will suffer.”The next hour was filled with the sounds of muffled screams and the sharp crack of bones. Despite the pain, the assassin maintained his silence. Blood dripped from his fingers where Andrew had worked with the pliers, but still, he gave nothing away.Frustrated, Andrew leaned back, wiping sweat from his forehead. “You’re tough,” he admitted grudgingly. “But everyone breaks eventually. And you will break.”The assass

    Andrew drove Hannah to the estate with the intention of taking her back home, where she lay flat in the front seat of his car, deeply asleep. As he gazed at her, he couldn't help but imagine the trauma she must have endured in the hands of her kidnappers. Suddenly, Hannah jolted awake, still aware of her surroundings, and realized they had already arrived at her house. However, she expressed her reluctance to stay there."No... No! I'm not going to stay there... Please take me to your house. I don't want to sleep alone. What if they come back for me?" Hannah pleaded, tears streaming down her face as she clung to his shirt, trying to convince him.Andrew empathized with her pain. "Don't worry, I won't leave you," he assured her, deciding to drive to his own house instead.As Andrew observed Hannah, anger welled up inside him. He was determined to uncover the truth behind it all and vowed to eliminate anyone involved in her kidnapping.Upon arriving at his house, Andrew stepped out of h

    Hannah was taken aback when she heard the knock on the door and realized it was Elsa, her friend. She didn't know what to do because if Andrew were to open the door and deny her presence, it would indirectly imply that he was responsible for any harm that might have befallen her. Hannah didn't want to cause Andrew any trouble since he had already helped her a lot. As Andrew approached the door, Hannah rushed forward, whispering urgently, "Andrew... Nooo! Don't answer it... I'll get the door myself!" She waved her hands, signaling for him to step back. Andrew tilted his head and raised his hands, silently questioning her. Despite his confusion, he decided to comply with Hannah's request, having learned his lesson from previous encounters. Hannah quickly hurried to the door and opened it halfway. Standing before her was Elsa, a girl with blonde hair, wearing a crop top and skinny jeans—someone she was intentionally avoiding. "Elsa... Hi... What brings you here so early in the morning

    Andrew looked up from his plate, a mischievous glint in his eyes as he sliced through the succulent roasted chicken."You know, Elsa," he began nonchalantly, his voice carrying a subtle edge, "I still remember that day at the shopping mall. You were so quick to ridicule me, mocking my supposed lack of wealth. Does that ring a bell?"Elsa's face flushed, her eyes narrowing with discomfort. "That was ages ago," she snapped, clearly uneasy with the sudden shift in conversation. "Why bring it up now?"Andrew paused, his knife sliding effortlessly through the tender meat. "Because it's relevant," he smoothly replied. "You see, Elsa, back then you made assumptions about me, much like you're doing now. You think you know everything, but you don't."Elsa's jaw clenched, her knuckles turning white as she gripped the table's edge. "And what exactly are you implying, Andrew? That you're some sort of saint? That you never make mistakes?""No," Andrew responded, his tone calm and measured. "I'm me

    Andrew was furious, and he was determined to show Everest that he was not some kind of pushover. "They think they can kill me? I'll show them they can't mess with fire." Andrew was extremely furious as he grabbed the assassin by the neck and snapped it. Never had Andrew imagined he could be so cold-blooded. But due to the challenges of life, he was no longer the easy target he used to be. Now that he had enough power, he was determined to use it wisely. That didn't mean he would use his power for evil.A few moments later, Andrew had cleaned up his garage and disposed of the body. He wasn't afraid of the aftermath of what he had done because the officials were already very corrupt, and the assassin he killed was already a wanted criminal. He was already a walking dead man, his name sounding like a ghost.**********Andrew was now parked in front of The Everest mansion in his car.

    Andrew stood before his uncle, pointing a pistol directly at his face. His expression was filled with anger as he glared at him, contemplating whether to pull the trigger. However, he found himself surrounded, with other guns aimed at him.The Everest family was known for their influence in the criminal underworld, involved in illegal activities and gang operations. They were like a secretive mafia, but their true nature remained hidden from those outside their inner circle. Andrew had learned about their activities from his father, which gave him the confidence to bring a gun. It was a way of showing them that he was not the insignificant person they had discarded.Andrew didn't want to involve the police or file a report about the attempt on his life. He told Hannah, who had witnessed his bravery and trusted him, not to tell anyone or contact the authorities. She believed in his abilities and chose not to involve the police.Andrew decided to handle things his own way, openly declar

    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!

    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.
