Bab 42: Archer

Now, the four men were at a cafe close to the city park. Steve, Terry, and Ben chose a more private place to chat.

The 4 cups of strong coffee with the slices of bread on the plate look so tempting, it will increase the appetite of anyone who sees it.

However, this was not the case for the four of them. Because, in fact, Steve, Terry, and Ben were staring at the man with suspicious eyes.

"So, can you explain who you are?" asked Steve to open the conversation after a long silence.

The person who had met him at the city park at 5.53 started to open the hood that was blocking his face.

As soon as the hood he was wearing was completely open, a brown-haired man in a navy blue shirt, paired with long black pants, appeared.

That person had almond-shaped eyes and tan skin that looked so exotic. Most strikingly, the man was wearing bright yellow glasses that contrasted with his appearance.

The man nodded his head. He immediately touched the coffee cup in front of him and took

The chatter of workers passing by was a common sight in the office he had set up. Coincidentally, Barbara was visiting Rosemary's downtown headquarters.His face looked so flat. His eyes looked very sharp, as if they were about to tear into prey. His lips formed a straight line, making it hard to smile. In his right hand, Barbara carried a black briefcase containing several important documents. Coincidentally, there were some investors who wanted to invest in his company. Therefore, he, who was used to working at home, immediately came here to hold a meeting."Good morning, sir." As he walked to his office, Barbara could hear his employees trying to greet him.However, Barbara chose to ignore them and kept walking to his room, which was only a few steps away.Once in front of the dark brown teak door, Barbara reached out his hand to grab th

He looked at the dark, purple-haired man with an intense gaze. His facial expression looked so serious, with a straight lip line. Terry rested his chin on the back of his hand like a detective questioning a suspect."What pattern are you referring to, Steve?" asked Terry in a serious tone."Can you explain it to me? Because I don't see the correlation between the things you just mentioned," Terry added as he swallowed the remaining bread in his mouth.Steve smiled a little at that. No wonder Terry looked confused like that. Indeed, it would be quite difficult to find the pattern of HK 0908 if one couldn't read what game was being played.Steve leaned towards Terry, who had moved his seat from the side to face him, so that the distance between them was quite close. The expression on his face

    Chapter 45: Run!Steve, Terry, and Ben sped straight to Rosemary's main office in the city center after the call was disconnected. The three of them took a taxi to get there.Inside the car, Steve didn't say much. He chose to look out the window, taking in every building they passed. He was thinking hard about how to save his father.Even though Barbara didn't recognize him as a son, Steve couldn't just leave the man alone. Steve just didn't want to get into trouble with Aleena. He didn't want to be labeled a bad boy for putting his parents in danger.Terry and Ben were speechless. They themselves were shocked by the news. This incident was not unusual, especially since Barbara had often been terrorized worse than this.But if the culprit was HK 0908, who was the mastermind of all the recent riots, it made the three of them feel anxious. They were afraid that he might do something to Barbara.In no time at all, the trio had arrived at Rosemary's office in just 10 minutes. They had to

The whistle in his hand even fell to the floor.This was also not much different from the workers who were filming the scene. In an instant, there was silence. No one made a sound after Jessy said that.Jessy chuckled as she felt that she had won this little debate. Her lips pulled up, curving into a smile that looked so beautiful. "Oh, you guys have realized with-""Hahaha,"Jessy stopped her words as everyone in the room laughed. The sound of laughter from the people who were recording this incident could be heard echoing all the way down the hall.Jessy raised her eyebrows. She looked confused by the current situation. Her eyes glanced at Steve, who was currently clenching his fists. The man was trying to hold back a huge emotion.Jessy even saw that between Steve's fingers, she could see blood dripping from there.

Many people shouted because they couldn't believe this news."What? This is impossible!"We guess that was the cry of the employees, who were too shocked by the news they got. Barbara smiled a little at the reaction of his employees. This was exactly what HK 0908 had expected."No matter how much you object, it won't change the fact that he is my son," Barbara continued his short speech, making the boisterous atmosphere instantly turn into silence in just a few seconds. "I hope you will respect him, because he will be the one to continue Rosemary's company."After the short speech, Barbara dragged Steve into his office, pulling him roughly by the arm. "Dad. Slow down. My hand hurts," Steve said with a grimace.Barbara paid no attention to the protests and whining that came out of her son's mouth. Onc

    Chapter 48: Father and Son (2)Currently, Steve and Barbara were at a clothing store a short distance from the office. As a father who served as CEO, Barbara was uncomfortable when he saw Steve's clothes, which looked very shabby. No wonder the man was chased by security because he thought Steve was a beggar.Currently, Barbara was sitting on one of the sofas in the corner of the room in the store. He wanted to make the most of his time working while he waited for Steve to finish choosing the clothes he would wear.The man massaged his head, which felt a little throbbing. The work seemed to be piling up, and he was exhausted. Barbara needed to be able to train Steve as quickly as possible so that he could rest. He also hoped that his son would bring great changes to the company he had worked so hard to start."Ah, this is exhausting," Barbara muttered to himself as he put away the cell phone in front of his eyes. He kept it on the table. The man occasionally closed his eyes, which w

His hand was stretched out on the table with a big smile etched on his face."Oh, you know my name?" The blond-haired man asked Steve. His free hand corrected the asymmetry of his tie.Steve nodded his head quickly. His eyes seemed to sparkle with a bright luster, full of curiosity."Yeah, I've seen you on TV," Steve replied with a faint smile etched on his lips. "Oh really?" asked Kai in response to Steve's words. "You saw me on TV? On which broadcast?"Steve seemed to think for a while while remembering the name of Chanel that he watched a month ago. He frowned while clenching his fists. However, not a single memory flashed through his head. "I forgot the name of the channel. But I saw you on TV when you just arrived from the airport. Then-,"Barbara cleared his throat softly as Steve spoke. The man also glanced at Steve's hand, giving his son the code. This made S

In her hand, there was a tray filled with food and fruit and a carton of milk.Hesitantly, Jessy turned the door handle. Looking around, she could see that the room was very small and stuffy. The dim lights hanging from the ceiling of the room looked so terrible, giving the impression of horror and also being tense.As soon as Jessy entered, the person in the room immediately turned her body from a lying position to facing Jessy. Her eyes were glassy, and she unconsciously shed tears again. The body shook violently. A soft sob filled the small room. Jessy sighed, then immediately approached the person and patted her shoulder lightly."Hey," Jessy called in a hesitant tone. Her low voice might not have been heard because the woman's sobs dominated the quiet room. "It's time for lunch. Eat a little so that your body is ener

The autopsy was announced in court, as was prosecuting Minji, who was the suspect in this incident.Steve sat in the chair as a witness. He had left everything to the lawyer hired by Kai. After all, this was the final battle between him and Minji to prove whether she was guilty or not.Behind him, there were many people who came to see the trial. In addition, many of the media were allowed to record this incident since it was an open trial. They were filming this event because Rosemary was one of the most influential figures in the business world (and growing in Steve's hands).Steve felt his heart beating very hard. He hoped that Minji would not appeal the verdict. After the clerk announced the verdict, a 40-year-old woman who represented the forensic doctor, who autopsied the bodies of her father and mother, entered."I am Fela, the forensic doctor who will bear witness to the truth of t

How could the culprit have been found? What evidence has been found? The thoughts kept spinning in his head endlessly, making him dizzy himself.Terry turned his attention to Ben, who was now frowning. The man with heterochromia eyes looked silent, as if he were analyzing the situation in this house.“What do you mean, sir?” asked Ben quickly, representing Terry’s question, who was about to ask the same question.The detective smiled faintly at Terry and Ben. “Yes, the culprit has been found. I just need additional evidence to support it.”“That fast?” asked Steve in an incredulous tone. He rounded his eyes, unable to believe what he had just heard.His heart seemed to stop beating as his face paled. Was the detective in front of him playing games with him? Or was he telling the truth? Because, as he rememb

They stared at each other before finally turning their faces the other way."You want me to be the father of the child inside your stomach?" Steve asked to be sure.Minji nodded her head quickly. Her eyes were sparkling, and her gaze was full of pleading. She looked at Steve with her hands clasped in front of her chest."Yes, I beg you. Please be the father of my child. Let's go back to the way we used to be, Steve. I've always dreamed of us being a family again, like-""Stop it there." Steve stopped Minji's words, which were too ridiculous for his ears. He put on a frivolous smile with a sardonic look in his eyes."After you left with another man and are now pregnant, you're asking to get back with me? Have you lost your mind?"Minji's smile now faded, turning into a sad face. Tears now flowed from her eyes again, much more heavily than before. Her sobs sounded so soft and heart-

And here he was, in an airport full of people.After getting their suitcase, the three men quickly made their way out. They had missed the country so much. Fun plans were already running through their brains.Steve inhaled the air greedily, with a small smile on his lips. He was very happy to be back in the country, although on the other hand, he felt a little bad that Mr. Kang had to take care of the rest of his work.As he was about to get a taxi, someone suddenly tugged on the hem of his shirt. Steve turned around to see who it was.His eyes were perfectly rounded, as if they were about to pop out of place. In addition, his heart seemed to stop beating, with his body frozen like a statue. He couldn't believe the person in front of him."Hello, Steve." Steve immediately took the body tightly into his arms. He buried his head on her shoulder. Steve's breathi

The three men had no other means of protecting their bodies from the fury of the crazed audience, just because of Daniel's provocative sentence.Once the tomatoes and cakes on the buffet table were gone, the guests stood still, staring at the three men with disgust, cynicism, and hatred. Steve lifted his head from the folds of his hands, protecting his face, and looked at his own body.His body was so dirty, covered in cream and crushed tomatoes. The same thing happened to Terry and Steve. "Get the three of you out of here! A vile person like you doesn't belong with the leaders of the company, Mr. Steve," Alexa said angrily. She clenched her fists with a glare at Steve."Ms. Alexa, I-""Get out of here!" Alexa shouted loudly. She grabbed Steve's hand and pushed him hard, knocking him to the ground. Again, Steve felt a sense of dejavu, just like when he was humiliated by Daniel at Layla'

He felt victorious because he had managed to make the man feel cornered.Daniel picked up the mic again, brought it closer to his mouth, and spoke again to make another provocative sentence."I have proof that Steve did that. Do you want to see it?"Again, there was silence for the second time. The audience was shocked by the words that came out of his mouth. "Don't you believe me? I really have proof." Daniel opened his mouth again. He made his tone persuasive so that the audience would believe what he said.The platinum-haired girl, who had been speaking, fell silent. Her mouth opened, and a look of doubt now overcame her. From that alone, the woman who had been supporting Steve now began to have doubts about what she believed in."You must be joking if you have proof." The platinum-haired woman uttered the

The praise they had just given him seemed to have been taken back. In other words, they are licking their own saliva.Seeing the situation turning against him, Terry gritted his teeth. His jaw clenched so tightly that his neck veins stood out. His hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His eyes were bulging, and a dark, black aura now surrounded his body, making the few people who were there step aside because they couldn't stand the dark aura. Let's not forget the dominant demeanor that was getting thicker and thicker around him, making Terry ten times scarier than before.Beside him, Steve and Ben looked quite panicked to see Terry, who was in alert mode. They were both trying to quell the anger of the red-haired man. Steve and Ben stroked Terry's back gently, trying to calm his hot-blooded heart."Terry,

His eyes shifted in another direction, reluctant to meet Kai, who was currently waiting for a reaction from him.“Who proposed the mission to them?” asked Steve, trying to remain calm. His voice sounded flat, contrary to the state of his heart, which wanted to blame his best friend.Kai sighed. He bit the candy in his mouth until it crumbled and swallowed it slowly. After his mouth was clean, Kai coughed a little. He wanted to create a serious atmosphere between himself and Steve.“Mr. Kang and I planned this,” Kai replied in a low voice. His gaze was still fixed on Steve, though the man was reluctant to look at him.“But why?” Steve massaged the bridge of his throbbing nose, feeling clueless about everything that was happening.“What are you bothering the Griffins for? Didn’t they do anything to the Grayon family and Kang Corp this time?”Kai glared

His mouth was slightly open, but he didn't say anything, as if something were holding his tongue. His heart seemed to stop beating. His mind was suddenly blank, as was the look in his eyes. Feeling something was wrong, Steve gently patted the back of Kai's hand. "Kai?" Steve called out in a slightly louder voice to wake Kai up from his reverie. Apparently, it worked. Kai was stunned and looked at Steve with blinking eyes a few times, gathering the consciousness that had been scattered. "Yes?" He said it spontaneously. "Why are you daydreaming?" asked Steve with a deeply furrowed brow. His tone of voice showed that he was annoyed, which was very different from before, when he was so friendly and warm. "Why are you being quiet? Please answer my question, Kai. I want to know what you're h
