The Legendary Hairfall System CHAPTER 25
Tessa was driving home. “That bastard didn’t give me any other name. Was it really Brother Melvyn? Melvyn sent that thug? No, he’s not that clumsy. He’s capable of doing such a cruel thing, but he wouldn’t execute it this poorly. It must be one of my sisters. Those selfish cunts really hate that I, the youngest daughter, get more love and attention from my brother and my parents.“They know that Melvyn would be after Jake Goodheart, so they want to drag me into their mess somehow. If I carelessly make a move, then I will get my hands burnt.“In the worst-case scenario, my brother and sisters are all working together in this. I have to be really careful.”Her four sisters were pretty crafty and influential, so Tessa felt all the more need to be cautious before making a decision on how she should proceed.She nervously bit on her nails. She hadn’t done that in a while.“Whom should I meet first?“Delma or Jake?”She thought about it.“I don’t know what Jake is up to , so I think it’s be

At Hamilton’s mansion.The ten o'clock sun was warmer than usual during this winter.“You’re telling me that forty tons of our gold bullions have magically gone missing during transport,” Elmond was sitting under a gazebo in the garden and was feeding the pigeons while talking to seven male workers standing before him.“I have great respect for truck drivers,” Elmond added, “but only as long as they do their job properly. I trusted your company and gave the transport deal, but you do this to me.”“I-If we wanted to steal from you, sir, we would have done it discreetly, sir,” the head of the travel agency said.Elmond glanced at his chief captain Drake. “How should we reward them for their work?”“W-We don’t need any wages since we couldn’t finish the job,” the head of the agency hurriedly said.“We can give them lots of bullets for making gold worth billions disappear,” Drake voiced his mind aloud.“No, since they like gold so much,” Elmond was calmly staring at those workers who were

The next morning.Anne woke up and suddenly checked her clothes. Everything seemed alright.Jake didn’t seem to have done anything to her last night.She felt disappointed for some reason.“I wish he did something. Anything. How can he not do anything at all? Am I not attractive?”“Mm?” She saw that Jake was in the bathroom.She quickly came to the couch and checked on its quality. “What the… why is it not as cushiony as I thought?”She lay down on the bed and rolled around.“On second thought, this is strangely comfortable,” she thought.Just then, the bathroom door opened.Jake saw her rolling like a cat relaxing in sunlight. “What are you doing?”“N-Nothing,” Anne felt goosebumps all over. “I was just checking the quality of the couch, that’s it.”“Huh, and why would you do that? Are you planning on sleeping on that couch soon?”“Ha-ha, you sure like to joke.”“I like to kiss as well,” Jake said.Anne’s heart fluttered for a second.“Do you want another kiss, babe? Just like the da

Layla was taken to the hospital.After a quick diagnosis, the doctor told them, “Your daughter has a fatty liver.”“W-What?” Donovan and Verna were shocked. “How can a child have a fatty liver?”“It’s a non-alcoholic fatty liver which comes because of a careless diet,” the doctor said. “She must be consuming lots of sugary content like ice creams and juices, right?”Donovan and Verna looked at each other and frowned. They were evidently guilty.“It’s curable, right, Doctor?” Anne nervously asked.“With proper diet and exercise, she can reverse the damage done to the liver,” the doctor replied, “but it takes time, and you shouldn’t push her too much. Just make sure to bring her to the hospital once every month so we can keep track of her condition. It’s going to cost you a few thousand dollars per year, but since you’re both lawyers, you shouldn’t have a problem with money. Just make sure she doesn’t eat anything with sugar in it for a while. Fruits are an exception.”Donovan and Verna

“How could you let her jump around, you bastard!”Their words were harsh.Layla quickly lay down on the bed and went silent. She didn’t have the nerve to talk while her parents were angry.While they both doted on her, they still would put on serious faces at times, which scared her. Maybe, it was because of their lawyer profession, she didn’t like it when they made such serious faces or yelled angrily at others.However, Verna attacked Jake with a vicious slap.Jake caught her hand easily and got up from his seat. “A child dances when she’s in joy. If she’s sick and unable to dance, will she be able to dance?”“What nonsense are you talking about!” Donovan growled. “Why are you even sitting here? We’re going to take care of her, so get out of the room.”“Hmph,” Jake snorted. “Just loving your daughter isn’t enough. If you had raised her right, she wouldn’t have come to this hospital in the first place.”His words were like a slap to their faces. They didn’t want to just take the heat

Jake didn’t go back to Anne’s house.Instead, he went straight to Blake’s salon. He was late, so Carter gave him an earful.“Were you drinking from the money you earned yesterday?” Carter howled. “You’re not going to get paid for two hours of your work today. Go!”Jake didn’t mind it as he was at fault.Jake dealt with two rich clients, and they gave him tips over hundred dollars each, which covered his salary cut.“This job is quite good,” Jake laughed.“Of course, every job is good to those who have the skills,” Tessa entered the room.“Y-You are… Ma’am!” Jake immediately saluted her.“Huh?” Tessa was amused by his reaction. “Why are you saluting? You think we’re in the military?”“You’re the big boss, so I should pay my respects,” Jake said. “Please sit down.” He gestured to her to sit on the couch.However, Tessa sat on the customer’s chair instead.Jake looked puzzled.“Without cutting my hair, make me look prettier,” Tessa said. “You better not make more than five strands fall,

Jake did the asymmetrical bob cut for Anne, and she was pleasantly surprised by how good and different she looked.“Do you like it?” he asked her.“I do,” Anne flashed a grin, unable to take her eyes off of the mirror.Jake smiled, seeing her blushing. “You look like a doll. I feel like pulling your cheeks. Can I pull them?”Anne shyly shook her head.“If you let me pull your cheeks, I will pay for your haircut,” Jake said.Anne then nodded slightly.Just as he raised his hand to grab her cheek, Tessa entered the room with a broom in her hand.The workers outside were all wondering why Tessa was holding a broom.Tessa kicked the door behind her shut so that the owners wouldn’t be able to see what was happening inside.“Madam,” Jake was startled to see Tessa. “Why are you carrying a broom? Give it to me. I’ll clean the room for you!”“Shut up!” Tessa waved her hand, swinging the broom at Jake’s face.His eyes widened. His body instinctively reacted and ducked.He managed to dodge, but

A solid punch connected to Tessa’s face, and she was sent flying into the wall.Her left sleeve was torn up to her elbow, but it stopped now.“Tsk,” Jake looked a bit upset as this was his first time hitting a woman.Nevertheless, he expected his punch to have done some damage, but Tessa got back up, only after suffering a minor bruise to her cheek.And she looked a little pissed off. “Not bad,” she smirked. “That was a well-timed punch. You’re not a worthless piece of trash. You’re better than that. I’ll give you that. But… you won’t be able to land such a hit on me again.”She pumped her fists and was about to lunge at him, but then Carter forcefully opened the door.“M-Ma’am, what’s going on?” Carter asked quickly.Tessa stood straight and acted cool. “Nothing happened.”Even though she said that, Carter could see that half of Tessa’s sleeve was torn. His eyes widened for a second, but then he immediately threw a slap at Jake.Jake, however, dodged by moving his head backward.“You

In the Blake mansion.Trisha brought a new stylist to Melvyn’s room, saying that he was the one who styled their dad’s hair.The stylist worked for two hours to bring out Melvyn’s old hairstyle, as much as he could, but Melvyn wasn’t satisfied with the output.He stabbed the stylist’s heart with the scissors and said, “He did better than others, but that’s all he is.”Melvyn was still wearing the fake wig that the stylist had made for him. “I’m tired of waiting here, so I will find a solution to this problem myself.”He walked out of the room in quick but heavy footsteps.As he was coming down the stairs, he heard the maids talking.“Hair(here) me out,” the maid said. “The hairline(airline) company workers are all so bad.”Melvyn frowned.“What are you two doing hair(here)?” the butler yelled at the maids and sent them away.Melvyn’s frown deepened. Why did he keep hearing words the wrong way? He was sure that the maids and the butler weren’t saying those words, but he still heard the

A few days later.Delma was singing by the pond, and the deer were enjoying her voice.Jake was also pleasantly surprised by it. How can such a fat woman have such a beautiful voice?Delma didn’t sing a song but only some rhymes, yet she was very good at it.Delma eventually came to him and said, “How are you feeling today? Any improvement?”“Yeah,” Jake was able to talk much better now.This excited both of them.“Your progress is faster than expected. This is great,” Delma openly said. “If you work hard, you will get back to your old looks sooner than you think.”Delma then brought delicious items and shared them with Jake and the animals. “Do you like sweets? I love sweets. Some days, I eat a lot of them.”“Don’t take it the wrong way, but you shouldn’t eat sweets if you want to get slim,” he said with effort.“It’s only one sweet,” Delma pitifully said. “And that also because of your recovery progress.”“O-Okay.”A few seconds of silence passed.“Can I ask you one thing?” Delma lo
CHAPTER 69
For many days straight, Delma stayed next to Jake throughout the clock, while also working out.She ran around the pond, and then did bodyweight workouts.She did pushups with the deer sitting on her back.She did pull ups on tree branches, with birds sitting on her shoulders.She pushed herself more and more so that her progress would skyrocket, all in order to reach her goal faster.During meal time, she feld soup to Jake with a spoon.He was able to move his mouth and swallow now, but he still couldn’t speak.A layer of his skin was only starting to show.Delma felt like it might take at least a week more before he could make a decent recovery.Jake could see everything around him.And every time Delma fed him soup, he felt terrible for treating her badly before.Her kindness was like a big slap to his face.Later in the evening, Delma made him sit in a reclining chair.She sat next to him and enjoyed the cool breeze next to the pond. The deer, peacock and the swans were busy eatin

Prisha ran away to her room without looking back, and along with her also went the hopes that Felicia had in getting Davis married to Tessa and perhaps Prisha getting married to Melvyn.Everything was ruined because of her ignorant daughter Prisha!Felicia could see that Benson was not happy.He just sat still on the couch, not speaking a word or glance at the television.“Only Jake can save us now,” Felicia thought, “but he’s not here. This guy Benson won’t force us to leave this mansion, will he? If someone like him were to ask Delma and Elmond, won’t they give him face and kick us out?”Felicia was already imagining all kinds of worst possible future lines that awaited the Goodheart family.A few moments later, Delma came to meet Benson.Weber took Felicia away, which Felicia didn’t like, but she had no command over Weber, so there was nothing she could do.“What brought you here so early in the morning?” Delma asked.“You know why,” Benson replied.“Did your daughters beg you to br

A few days later.Felica was talking with Davis. “I asked Ms. Delma, and she told me she’d make you the CEO of a company.”“What?” Davis was so shocked, he dropped the mobile in his hand and got up from the chair. “Really?”“Haha, yeah,” Felicia said. “And she said you can pick among the list of the companies she’ll refer to. Once you become a CEO of a big company, you are going to receive calls from millionaire families, wanting to marry their daughter to you.”Davis was overjoyed but for a different reason. “Mom, I already have a girl that I like.”Felicia frowned. “Prisha told me. The Blake family’s girl is too much for you. She’s in a different league. I think you should give up.”“You think she won’t look at me even after I become a CEO?” Davis asked.“She’ll still be so much richer than us even after you become a CEO, so why would she look at you any differently?” Felicia asked him back.Her words took the gas out of Davis’ hopes.Felicia patted his shoulder. “There are plenty o

Delma came home with bruises here and there. Her left thumb lost its fingernail.She applied cooling, healing oil to it, then covered it with a bandage that didn’t stand out.She didn’t want her grandfather to notice that injury and worry about her.It was night time.As she was heading to meet Elmond and tell him about the systems she had taken from Dera and Lily, one of the nurses came rushing to her and said, “Mr. Jake is awake.”Delma immediately rushed over to the right wing to check on him.Jake’s eyes were open, and he was conscious.He still wasn’t able to move a finger, though.“In the process of de-crystallization, we thought you’d lose your eyelids, ears and your private part, but luck was on your side,” the doctor told Jake. “The procedure went smoother, and we were able to keep those things intact. It will take a month or two for you to get your skin back. Until then, you should rest. It’s better if you are put in the liquid tank to speed up the healing process. What do y
CHAPTER 65
Later that night.Trisha came home, bleeding from her right arm.Lily and Dera quickly rushed over to her. “Sis, did you get our systems back? Did you kill her?”“No, she was well-prepared,” Trisha frowned. “I will get her next time. Until then, be patient.” Saying that she went upstairs.Lily and Dera looked at each other. “If Big Sis can’t help us, should we ask our dad or brother?”“Brother Melvyn locked himself in his room,” Dera said. “He’s not letting anyone except Big Sister inside.”“Let’s tell this to our dad then. If he talks with the Hamiltons, they will give our systems back!” Lily strongly believed.Trisha went to her room and took a few pills which accelerated her healing process.“The super strength or super power system or whatever it is… just what are its limits? I couldn’t push Delma to her limits. I can’t let such a nasty woman become my sister-in-law. This was the perfect time for me. I should have gotten rid of her.”She punched the mirror and broke it.“But it’s
CHAPTER 64
Later that evening.In the southern mountains of Salem city.Delma was standing at the mountain top, staring at the sunset.A helicopter was flying by. Trisha jumped down and plummeted through the air like a falcon and stomped down onto Delma.Delma lifted her forearm and blocked the vicious kick. “Krgh,” Delma ground her teeth.The ground beneath her cracked and caved in, creating a big crater around her.From a distance, it looked like a part of the mountain top dented.“You are so angry because I bullied your sisters a little bit,” Delma forcibly pushed Trisha back with brute force. “Then how much more angry should I be for what your brother and sisters did to my fiance?”“You equate my sisters with some random low life trash?” Trisha floated in the sky above Delma.“He’s not trash. You know that he removed your brother’s hair, don’t you?” Delma retorted in a cold voice.Trisha’s eyes slightly widened. “I see. So, it was that bastard on the wanted poster who dealt such a blow to my
CHAPTER 63
At Cavil Insurance company.Lily Blake was talking with a big client. Her voice convinced the clients to take insurance for their upcoming casino projects.After the clients paid her with a check and left, Lily was kissing the check. “10 million dollars… this is just the start. I’ll suck more from you guys in the future.”The door opened, and an unexpected person entered the room.“D-Delma?” Lily was surprised. “What are you doing here? Did you finally come here to get insurance for your Ordinance Park?”“Why did you revoke the fire insurance for Better Biscuits?” Delma asked.Lily frowned in a bit of anger. “It’s none of your business, though.”“I won’t ask you a third time,” Delma said, her voice turning hoarse. “Why did you do it?”“You think I am afraid of you?” Lily uttered in a commanding tone. “Get lost from my room!”Her voice created hypnotizing sound waves, which could easily control the people’s minds, but Delma just dashed forth and grabbed Lily’s throat and lifted her up.
