Melvis slammed the man's hand down so hard that the man in front of him took a few steps back. One of his feet entered the puddle, splashing water onto the car's body.
The man widened his eyes to see his car was dirty. His eyes glared at Melvis. "You bastard! You've made my luxury car dirty! You have to compensate me 1000 dollars because you crossed suddenly. The body of my car was scuffed against the curb."Melvis smiled faintly while rolling his eyes. "It's just an ugly car, such an exaggeration. It's only a little dirty, anyway. It's not scratched at all. It's a cheap car."Melvis had been looking through car catalogs for a while, wanting to take Liona to the car sales. He had saved up some money, planning to buy a car to take his girlfriend out. But Liona betrayed him instead. So, he knew that the vehicle in front of him was no more than two million dollars, and according to Melvis, who was now a rich man, it was a bargain compared to the car he had taken to the bank."What did you say? Cheap? Can you even afford it? Your pride alone wouldn't be enough to buy this car, damn it! How dare you insult me like that." The man was annoyed, not accepting Melvis' words.Melvis responded casually. "Yes, I've seen a car catalog, and the price of your car is still classified as a cheap car."The man pointed his index finger at Melvis' face. "You really are a piece of shit! I will make your life difficult, and you'll regret everything you said!"The man returned to his car, then came out with a baseball bat. He lifted the bat up, about to beat Melvis with it. Just as the baseball bat was about to hit Melvis, Quen came to block it with his hand.The man frowned, getting more and more annoyed at failing to hit Melvis. "Who are you? What are you doing? Get lost! Strangers shouldn't interfere in our business!"Quen snatched the baseball bat from the man's hand roughly. "If my Master is in danger, I should interfere. I'll keep him safe.""Where is your master?" The man laughed while scrunching his waist. He looked around, not seeing what Master Quen was referring to. With such fine clothes Quen wore, the man thought that Quen's Master must be extraordinary. Not just anybody. "If you want to protect that Master of yours, just go to your Master! Why are you bothering me? Damn it!""This Mr. Melvis is my master." Quen stared intently at the man while brandishing a baseball bat in front of him. "If you dare to hurt my master, I'll break those bones of yours!"The rough man grinned as he took in Melvis' appearance from head to toe. "There's no way this man is your Master. You must be putting on an act." He gyrated his waist while pointing his index finger at Melvis' face. "Hey, you should still compensate me for getting my car scuffed and dirty!""I don't want to!" Melvis looked sharply at the man.The rude man did not accept Melvis' words. "Damn it!" He raised his hand, about to punch Melvis, but Quen managed to block the man's hand again and hit the man's face first with his left hand.Quen's punch was more painful than a baseball bat. The tip of his fist was blunt and powerful. He has even been dubbed the iron fist in his martial arts school. Hence, he was appointed the most excellent and best bodyguard.The man grimaced in pain as he stroked the corner of his lip where it hurt. He pointed an index finger at Quen's face. "Insolent! How dare you hit me. I'll report you to the police." You have to compensate me for the car and the wound on my face!"Melvis chuckled while looking sarcastically at the man. "You are at fault. You're the one who should be compensated and blamed because you dropped my bread and almost hit me."The rude man pointed his index finger back at Melvis. "You who has no eyes, crossing carelessly! You made me brake so suddenly that I slammed into the side of the road. Look at the scuff on my luxury car because of you, damn it!" He ruffled his waist while raising his face haughtily. "Anyway, you have to compensate!""Alright, then. I know how to compensate for my ten minutes of precious time wasted because of you. Of course, my time will be worth a lot of money." Melvis raised his hand to Quen. "Give me that baseball bat."Quen gave it to Melvis. The man looked panicked when Melvis started approaching his car. "Hey, what are you going to do?"Melvis ignored the man, then hit the hood of the man's car repeatedly and hard with the baseball bat. Everyone around them screamed hysterically, including the man. He tried to block Melvis from destroying his car, but Quen kept him quiet."No. What are you doing? My fancy car!" The man shouted, trying to break free from Quen's grip, but Quen's grip was too firm.Melvis continued to smash the car. The shattering of the car's glass rang loudly in the ears, especially since everyone there was silent, and the atmosphere became quiet. Only the sound of glass shattering and Melvis' punches dominated."Damn it! Why did you smash my car? It's an expensive car!" The man was hysterical because it took him a long time to buy the car, and now it was being destroyed in front of his eyes.Hearing the man's cursing, Melvis' anger grew to the top of his head. His jaw hardened to the point where the veins in his neck stood out. Melvis shifted position, smashing the left side of the car. The glass immediately shattered and almost hit him.After it shattered, Melvis threw the baseball bat right by the man's feet. He reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a 100-dollar bill. Melvis placed the money on the hood of the destroyed car. "This is the same amount of compensation, 100 dollars, for my toast that fell because of you." He stared intently at the man. "You're the one who ruined your own life."Melvis walked away. Quen immediately let go of the man's hand and followed behind Melvis. The man's whole body felt weak. Even his knees could not support his body, causing him to fall sitting on the dirty, muddy ground."My car." The man looked down weakly, crying at the condition of his car. That had been damaged like it had just been hit by a big truck.Everyone there was surprised that the man's car was so lovely. They looked at him with compassionate gazes. "What a pity. That car is costly, and not just anyone can buy it.""Look, even now, it doesn't look valuable. It's like a junk car in a garbage dump." Other people also commented on the state of the man's car.The man's heart sank even further when the other comments started coming in. His breathing was so labored that he couldn't even speak. The man could only cry and mourn. Now, he didn't know what to take home.Melvis got into the car, cleaning his clothes that had been splintered by the windshield. He looked at Quen, who was still outside the vehicle. "Buy me some more toast."Quen bowed his head respectfully. "Yes, sir. I will buy it immediately."Quen walked away from Melvis, went to the toast shop, and ordered the same toast Melvis had bought. He watched the rough man, still sitting limply, looking at the wrecked car. Then not long after, the smell of toast wafted into her nostrils. He turned hia head to where the scent was coming from. Quen was standing right before him while holding out a toast similar to the one from earlier.Quen bowed his head respectfully. "This is bread for Master. I have bought some more."Melvis smiled. Happily, Quen was more than just reliable. He took the toast in Quen's hand. "Thank you."Quen bowed respectfully while nodding his head. "No problem, sir. I am at your service."Melvis took his time to go shopping at a large shopping center. He was enjoying his time as a newly rich man. Melvis was happy and loved it because he had never spent so much money like this. With the card given to her by Alex, Melvis could buy all the things she used to admire and could never afford.Melvis looked in the mirror in the dressing room to see himself in a shiny luxury suit. He smiled as he smoothed the collar of her suit. "This is amazing. I really do look like someone who was born into a rich family."After being satisfied with his appearance, Melvis changed into a luxurious suit with simple clothes. He went to the cashier to pay for his purchases. Since Melvis was paying with a black card, the waiters were confused because the clothes Melvis wore didn't look like a rich person who deserved to use the black card. However, they didn't dare to speak, let alone insult.Melvis went back around and entered the following few shops. The items he bought were relatively small an
The two beautiful girls were transfixed where they stood as they stared at the shiny back of the super-rare sports car that they couldn't even guess the price."Is that your ex-Melvis? Is it possible that he's juggling a million-dollar junker?" Anna giggled while not blinking for a while as she watched the car's shadow grow smaller and smaller."M-million? You're crazy! That's a brand-new car. Only a few people worldwide can own it. Charles once showed me a catalog of cars. That poor guy, he can't even afford that car." Liona said in a raised tone as if she was yelling at Anna. "How much is zero?" Liona recalled a car catalog similar to the one used by Melvis, she was sure that the price of the car used by Melvis in the tens of millions of dollars range was precisely the same as the catalog she had seen.Anna only glanced at her reluctantly, she was bound to hear Leona's nonsense again. She prepared to cover her ears to avoid the heat.Whereas Liona beside her was holding the heat in
After adjusting the sapphire brooch on his collar, two women nudged Melvis' shoulders, causing him to make an annoyed grunt. Melvis turned to stare at the two elegant women who made no graceful faces. But then her focus was shattered when she heard a commotion in the other corner of the room. Ignoring the two women who had bumped into Melvis, the man visited the noise source. He halted his steps behind a crowd of other men holding their partners. From a slit, he stared intently at a woman who, despite wearing a mask, did not conceal an aura of incomparable beauty. The woman stood up and turned away from Melvis as the man saw that the back of the woman's dress had a spot of red wine on it. Melvis then gazed at the two women standing not far from the woman wearing the blue mask with white trim and a few fine feathers on the right corner of the mask. "Isn't she Taylor Haris?" one of the visitors asked in a whisper. Melvis' ears instantly became sensitive and picked up a strange vibe
He was Hudson Danborg, an entrepreneur who owned the largest dock and ship business in Orlan County. Not only did Hudson own dozens of cargo ships, containers, and tankers, but he also ventured into the industrial industry, where he introduced one of the largest cruise ships in the Orlan area for the wealthy to enjoy the appeal of touring on the sea worldwide. That evening, Hudson had an appointment with his important client, Melvis Tucker, to discuss their new business of exporting and importing to a broader and larger audience. Hudson didn't know his client's face yet as he was negotiating over the phone. But due to an unexpected problem, he arrived a little later than the time they had agreed. "How's this?" Hudson spoke to himself as he looked at the watch he had just taken out. "They're not done yet?" whispered one of the guests who passed Hudson. "She's a notoriously rude woman. With the influence of her friend's family, she's acting even worse." The guest's friend replied.
"Watch your language Miss Grocky! He is my important guest tonight. If you don't apologize to my client, I can throw you out of this building right now!" Hudson snapped, instantly making everyone hold their tongue. He stood before Alice and Maudi, his trembling forefinger almost piercing the woman's eyes. Alice froze instantly, she held her breath. It was the first time she had heard herself yelled at in such a way, let alone the first time she had seen Hudson Danborg get angry in front of a crowd. "Did you see that?" whispered one of the middle-aged women who covered her mouth with a hand wrapped in a lace glove. "I was surprised to see Hudson Danborg so angry and defending someone so much. Is that person really that important? Who is he?" asked another woman wearing a tiny hat and lace that partially covered her face. Everyone was now wondering who Melvis was that Hudson was defending so fiercely. Meanwhile, Alice and Maudi seemed to be electrified by Hudson's threat. Deali
In a special room, Melvis and Hudson came out. Hudson came out smiling, while Melvis showed a happy and confident face beside him. Although it was invisible, he felt proud to be standing in a place he had never imagined. Hudson then shook Melvis' hand as they exited the room. "Thank you very much, Mr. Melvis. It's been an honor working with you." Hudson said as they shook hands. Melvis calmly returned the handshake. "I'm happy to be a part of this great project," Melvis replied. After they had talked a bit, Hudson escorted Melvis down the hallway to the exit with a polite gesture. How could he not? After the agreement and Melvis's considerable investment, Hudson respected him. As they walked to the end of the hallway, a girl in a blue dress turned her back on them. It was Taylor who had taken off her mask. The two men were still unaware of the figure waiting for them while their backs were in the hallway. Meanwhile, Melvis began to notice the details of the wall they passed. "I
Hot rumors began to spread throughout Orlan. Rumors about how the Santos family had managed to amaze everyone. While Berth Santos had just finished taking a call from his friend, He had only heard the rumors that morning. "Bro! Did you hear the rumors? Looks like your drunken ramblings were overheard by someone who knows you and spread to the ends of Orlan!" A man enthusiastically babbled from the other end of the line. Berth, who knew nothing about it, remained silent momentarily before asking his best friend what rumor he was referring to. "Yes, it is! Do you remember? Your rant about how you managed to get a big stake in Danborg's business! Is it really 700 million dollars bro?" Asked his friend. When he heard the question of the amount, Berth Santos' reaction was only one, He was shocked. He had never invested that much, "but why the rumor?" Berth thought to himself. "Bro?" Called his friend, who had been waiting for an answer from Berth for a few minutes had passed. "Ah.
Melvis and Quen wanted to return to the car to ignore Berth Santos. But then the man cursed them even more than before. Just then, Melvis and Quen turned around and were about to leave Berth Santos, but suddenly, a light came out. Melvis turned around and saw the light beam from the man's cell phone. "What are you doing?" Asked Melvis, who covered the light with his hand as it stabbed his eyes. Instead of answering, Berth Santos burst out laughing. "Hey guys! He is the poor fool who made me crash my car. You should see his ugly face!" Berth exclaimed, highlighting the faces of Melvis and Quen in turn. Melvis blocked the light from Berth's smartphone flash. Quen, who saw that, immediately stopped Berth's camera, he wanted to grab it and let himself be exposed rather than let his master be uncomfortable. "Hey damn it! Stop playing around!" Quen snapped threateningly. Hearing Quen's threat, Berth got annoyed and pushed her while staggering. He ran towards Melvis' sports car and sta
