Hearing the word "fiancée" was unbelievable for Andrew, and it made it hard for him to think clearly. Hannah had previously told him that the guy who kissed her, Daniel, was just a misunderstanding. But now, everything seemed different. It felt like Hannah was hiding something from him."I don't understand... You have a fiancée?" Andrew asked, his heartbroken, hoping to hear the truth from Hannah herself."That's a lie! I'm not his fiancée!" Hannah exclaimed angrily. She immediately stood up and slapped Daniel across the face, unable to bear it any longer."How dare you slap me! You'll pay for this!" Daniel threatened, trying to push his way in. But the security guards stopped him, refusing to let him enter."Let me in or all of you will be fired! That's an order!" Daniel shouted, his anger boiling over."What are you waiting for? Remove this troublemaker from here!" Hannah lashed out at the security guards who were supposed to do their job.The security guards were unsure of what to
Andrew hailed a cab and headed home, consumed by anger over the recent events. As he entered his house, he slammed the door shut, shutting out the world. He proceeded straight to the bar, grabbing a drink and pouring himself a glass of wine, which he swiftly downed in a single gulp.Lost in his thoughts, Andrew replayed the events that had just unfolded, muttering to himself, "Why do I keep falling for her? I promised myself I wouldn't develop feelings for her again, yet here I am, foolishly falling once more." He heavily tapped his head with his right hand, a gesture of frustration.However, as he recollected Hannah's final words, doubt began to creep into Andrew's mind. "But it seemed like she still has feelings for me... No, what am I thinking? I believe it's all an act... She's only interested in me for my wealth," Andrew reasoned to himself, attempting to console his wounded heart by pouring another glass of wine and taking a sip.***********Hannah rushed home, with countless q
It was Saturday morning, and Andrew had no classes scheduled for the day. He planned to dedicate his time entirely to his business. Despite having consumed a substantial amount of alcohol the previous night, he decided to leave the matter behind and not dwell on the past. Today, he was at the office, engaging in his usual work routine. He knew that avoiding Hannah completely would be impossible since she was the managing director."I won't say a word to her if I see her... Okay... How should I handle this? I'll go like this... hmm... Take a deep breath," Andrew contemplated different scenarios in his mind, attempting to devise the best approach for when he inevitably encountered Hannah.Unbeknownst to Andrew, there was a knock on his door, and it was Hannah standing there. She wanted to provide an update on an ongoing project, but she felt a sense of shyness as she faced Andrew at the door."What should I say to him... Andrew... Nooo... Should I call his name first... Hmm... I should
Andrew arrived at the site as quickly as possible, only to find an ongoing renovation taking place. They were in the process of changing the structure of the mall, as they had planned to implement a complex system involving underground mining operations. The minerals would be transported to a separate mining location Andrew had acquired, which specialized in gold mining. This underground setup was designed to keep the location's secrets concealed and prevent exposure.Now, faced with a threat that could potentially jeopardize the secrecy of the operation, Andrew grew increasingly concerned.Rushing to the scene, Andrew observed that the windows of the excavator and other machinery had been shattered. It was evident that some damage had occurred. However, due to the concealed interior of the main mining area, outsiders would remain unaware of what was truly happening. This was crucial for Andrew to safeguard the secrets he desperately wanted to keep hidden from the world."What happe
Sean and his men were surprised to see that Andrew didn't even care as he killed the man on the spot like nothing was going on. This showed that Andrew had a hardened mind and he wasn't one to take nonsense.The bald leader didn't know what to do as he had seen Andrew's actions. He was not sure of what exactly he wanted to do any longer. He wasn't expecting a college kid to be this strong.Andrew went straight up to him with his bloody hands and cleaned them on the bald guy's tracksuit. The young man couldn't do anything because, seeing Andrew's actions, he knew that Andrew could do more.The man had to cower in fear as Andrew had his way. Andrew raised the big chain on his chest, and the young man gulped as Andrew dragged the bald man closer."Next time, you don't come close to my property or try to damage it. If you think you're some kind of big shot, then you can try me. I'll show you that I don't use knives to cut my meat..." He then went closer to the bald man's ear and whispered
Andrew considered the Cobra leader's desperate plea. "Anything, huh?" he said, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "Well, then, I have a proposition for you."The leader's eyes widened, "Anything, please, just don't hurt me!"Andrew's grip on the man's collar tightened. "First, you're going to pay back every single penny you and your goons have extorted from this mall over the years. And I mean double the amount"The leader's face fell, his hopeful expression replaced by one of dread. "B-but I don't have that kind of money! It'll take me years to pay that back!"Andrew's eyes narrowed. "That's not my problem. You're going to figure it out, one way or another." He turned to Sean, who had been watching the exchange with a mix of unease and satisfaction. "Sean, what's the total value of this entire mall operation?"Sean quickly did the calculations in his head. "Including the mining operation and all the assets, I'd estimate the total worth to be around $50 million, sir."The Cob
Andrew stood at the resting place in the construction site, glancing through his phone to check the news online while he awaited Mr. Cedar's arrival. He knew that the threat he had given him would surely prompt a swift response. Andrew patiently waited for the results of his actions. He wanted to assert his dominance and create a name for himself.Andrew stopped scrolling through his phone, taking a moment to smile to himself. "I will use this opportunity to conquer the Cobra gang single-handedly. I will also uncover the dealings of the underground empire," Andrew thought, determined. He knew that in the long run, after creating chaos and havoc in the Everest Mansion, they would seek revenge, and he needed manpower. Therefore, he aimed to take down two birds with one stone.Andrew stood at the resting area in the construction site, his gaze fixed on his phone as he scrolled through the latest news. He knew that his ultimatum to Mr. Cedar would prompt a swift response, and he was pat
Mr. Cedar wasn't expecting Andrew to be so ruthless. After all, he was just a kid. He never imagined that a young person could corner him like this. With no other choice, he reluctantly accepted Andrew's terms."Okay, what do you want me to do?" Mr. Cedar finally succumbed to Andrew's demands, and Andrew couldn't help but smile back at him.Andrew approached Mr. Cedar, raising his arms in a gesture of peace. "You see, we can conduct business peacefully. It doesn't always have to be violent," Andrew said to him."My terms are simple and beneficial to you. All I want is to acquire the Cobra gang. I'd like to become the boss above the boss, which is you. However, you'll still be in charge, but I will be the only one who can give you commands." Andrew walked back and forth, holding his fingers together and stretched out."You... bastard!" Mr. Cedar wanted to rebuke him, but he momentarily turned toward a nearby building, fearful of Andrew's potential aggression."Oh, you can say whatever
