The Second Chance Billionaire Chapter 31
Using His Phone?There was an unwritten rule in the culinary world that the chef had the final say in the kitchen. As a matter of fact, it was precisely because of this that Luna had initially agreed to Hayden's request to fire Christopher. After all, Christopher did work under Hayden and therefore Hayden had the right to. However, she did not expect that there was actually more to this situation than met the eye. As for Tina's work experience as the captain in the five-star hotel. Luna reckoned she would need to verify it further now."Ms Sears, I-"Luna's voice was not loud, but it exerted a force against Hayden.He opened his mouth as if trying to explain something, but he was immediately interrupted by her again. She said,"Enough.You don't have to say anymore. After all, the both of you were colleagues who have been working together for three years. There is absolutely no need to step out of bounds, and you should know when to stop. Forget the challenge: let's not stab people in

You're Not Just The Clown,This lottery system seemed pretty similar to the lotteries in many online games. He had reason to believe that there were great things to be drawn in this 'other' area-even the legendary suit that he had used on his character when he used to play online games in college was drawn from a lottery!There is only one chance. Heavens, I ask for your blessing, Christopher silently prayed.Gulping, he pressed the 'draw' button at once.Whoosh!The roulette began to turn and at the same time, Christopher's heart was beating like a drum in his chest. His breathing became rapid and his palms started to sweat.Those few seconds felt like years to Christopher. He swore in his twenty-plus years of living that he had never felt as nervous as he did right then.As the roulette began to slow down, he knew the results were about to come up. In an instant,he held his breath.Please!It was hard to say if it was because Christopher's life seemed too miserable after he was brok

You Better Win!At this point, the crowd fell into a stunned silence. As he used his dazzling Dual Wielding skill which seemed almost like a choreographed performance, everyone thought that Christopher's work should at least be of the same level as Hayden's ice toad. However, that didn't seem to be the case.A feeling, one that was indescribable, began to rise in their chests.Tina, on the other hand, had a look that said 'I knew it' as she watched the current situation unfold. Although she was not a chef nor did she know how to cook, she still at least had some idea of what looked good and what didn't. Dual Wielding my ass; what a joke! She thought.Between the two ice sculptures, one was a perfectly sculpted ice toad with extreme resemblance, while the other was merely a pitted egg without any discernible features-there seemed to be no need for comparisons. The results were obvious.Everyone present, too, felt that there was no longer any need to judge. However, Luna was the excepti

Line CookThis is it. I'm finished. Hayden's expression was grim as he heard Luna's response.Immediately, he knew things were about to go downhill.Hot?How did things turn out this way?Again and again. Hayden continued to question himself.How could this be?!Right. It's all because of Tina! As soon as this thought crossed his mind, he turned to look at Tina at once.His expression was filled with hatred and resentment.If it wasn't for her. Iwouldn't try to provoke Christopher in the first place, and if I didn't provoke him, today's situation would not unfold.And if this didn't happen, I wouldn't be forced to leave The Serenade, this was all because of her!The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. In the next second, he raised his hand and slapped Tina's face hard.Slap! It was loud.The crisp sound of the slap echoed through the room and everyone heard it.Taken aback, Tina froze. The last thing she would have expected was for Hayden to slap her in front of everyone.Aft

Truth Juice"Well, if you don't say anything.I will have no choice but to assume that you've agreed."Seeing that Christopher hadn't responded for a long time, Luna said again,"Well, then, I'll inform the Human Resources department on your behalf .Go get busy!"After saying that, Luna seemed to really have something to deal with. She took out a document from a folder and began scanning through it.Without saying anything further, Christopher left the office after nodding slightly at Luna. He closed the door behind him gently. Once he left. Luna raised her head to double-check. In fact, there were no documents waiting for her to review. At once, she threw aside the documents and took out her mobile phone to make a call."Hi, big sis, what made you call?" As soon as the call connected, an adorable female voice came from the speaker. Judging from her tone, she was young."Big sis?" Hearing how this lady addressed her.she merely let out a chuckle."So I'm big sis to you now?""Well, not

Conflict[Truth Juice allows the consumer to only speak of the truth. Its effect lasts for 30 minutes. With pulps and fruit chunks, it is best consumed chilled."Those words were printed on the alloy can as the introduction of the Truth Juice.]"They even threw in something funny. But why isn't it something that gives you special skills of some sort?"Reading the introduction of the product. Christopher couldn't help but feel disappointed. The prize that he imagined was supposed to be on par with exclusive techniques like Dual Wielding. It's still better than nothing. At least that was how he consoled himself as he bagged the Truth Juice.Arriving at the station, he kept the juice well and put his phone into his pocket before alighting the public transport.The single apartment that he rented was located among a number of low-rise buildings which made up a residential area. In this area,there were all sorts of people, most of whom were in a similar situation as Christopher's; they were

Was He Possessed? "What do you want? Christopher said exasperatedly."Pay!" Sean wore an irritated expression before adding."You must pay back!"'Is he trying to blame it on me now?' Christopher thought to himself as he frowned.He was unsure whether or not he caused the button to fall off, but Versace?You must be joking!Although Christopher didn't have the luxury to wear clothes from that brand, he had seen Luna wearing it various times. Anyone could tell that from the fabric and quality that Sean's shirt was highly likely counterfeit products that were often sold in roadside stalls. 200 bucks was the ceiling price for it. Moreover, people who could afford to wear such luxurious brands wouldn't bother about such petty issues.Unwilling to argue with Sean, Christopher simply brushed past him, wanting to walk away.Just as he attempted to do so, Sean grabbed Christopher's collar before saying,"Hey,are you trying to escape?""Listen up you punk! You must pay me back today. Otherwi

I've Memorized You'After those words rolled off Sean's tongue. he was on the brink of tears.'Why can't I control my own mouth?! Why can't I control it?! Stop spilling the beans!'When Christopher heard Sean's confession about his sexual disease, he couldn't help himself and laughed out loud.It was unexpected that Sean, who seemed educated and refined with his glasses and all, was such a man.It took Christopher a solid two-minute to grudgingly stop laughing. Wiping off the tears at the corner of his eyes, he pointed at Samantha before he continued to ask."What's your relationship with this girl?"At once, Sean thought to himself, I'm doomed.At the same time, his heart dropped. Obviously, he did not want to answer Christopher's question, but it was beyond his control."There's no relationship between us, but Samantha's mother is a patient at our hospital.""Is she very sick?""It's quite severe. She's still in a coma as we speak.""Then can you help her?""No?"“Why?""That's beca

Epilogue. AgendaAtlas had just seen Ella today, how could he have prepared a present in advance when he didn't even know Amelia was going to adopt the child from the orphanage. Just as he was about to think of what to say, the system's robotic voice rang in his head.«Ding!System sense's Host's complicated emotion.

At wits endGarrick Gayle trudged through the rain-soaked streets, his eyes cast down at the pavement. It had been months since his family disowned him, blaming him for his father's death. The pain still lingered, a constant ache in his chest.As he turned a corner, he spotted a familiar figure leaning against a graffiti-covered wall. It was Vex, the leader of the gang Garrick had joined a few weeks ago."Yo, Garrick! What's up, man?" Vex called out, his voice laced with a hint of excitement.Garrick shrugged, approaching Vex. "Just trying to stay dry, I guess."Vex chuckled. "You're always so gloomy, Garrick. Lighten up, man! We've got a score to settle tonight."Garrick raised an eyebrow. "What kind of score?"Vex grinned mischievously. "We're hitting a convenience store on 5th Street. Easy in, easy out. We'll make some quick cash and have some fun."Garrick hesitated, his mind racing with the risks. But Vex's enthusiasm was infectious, and he found himself nodding along."Alright,

La beteOmega sat down in front of Kahn and bowed his head without looking Kahn in the eyes. It felt as if Omega was submitting himself and acknowledging Kahn as it's master. The next moment, Kahn felt a connection towards Omega as of the wolf was an extension of his own body and consciousness.“Do you understand what I'm saying?” Kahn asked Omega to check whether his guess was right.Omega nodded in response and stood back up.“Good. Now go and hunt something I could eat. Not too big and meat shouldn't be too hard to chew.” Kahn commanded Omega. Since je was under the weakened state, he barely had strength to walk and could not go to find something to eat.He thought about having something to eat first because he had no energy left in him and meat was the best source to regain strength.After Omega ran off towards the bushes and completely disappeared out of his sight, Kahn called to the system again.“System, can you help me create fire?” Kahn asked curiously.«What am I, your mothe

ServantKahn heard all the notifications inside his head. He already expected something like this to happen when he killed the red wolf and heard the Ding sound in his head.To his surprise, he not only learned how to activate War Dominance but he also broke through the current threshold of his capacity and already went past his limits to meet the conditions to unlock his War Deity Body. This means he will be twice stronger when he recovered his strength again.The first encounter Kahn had in Vantrea as soon as he entered was a life or death battle and he barely managed to survive. Who knew if eh we ended up dying here, would anyone ever know or care? He would die just a nameless death.. AGAIN.Kahn tried to focus his mind again on the notifications in his mind. There was no system panel or screen board for him to check these notifications in a list or scroll through them one by one.

BattleDerek's new body.. now Kahn.. was something he always dreamt of and wanted to have in his ideal standards of a physical body. He was six-feet and three-inches tall, normal white skin tone same as his previous life. He had an angled but somewhat wider jaw. His face was well proportioned and very handsome. He had bulging muscles and six pack abs. Unlike his previous life, this time his hair color was completely black and not brown. They were smooth, soft, and wavy. His hair was done from the right side from his perspective. They were long but not till his shoulder length long either. His eyes were black, unlike his former life where they were blue. It was not to stand out or being assumed as someone from a particular region because blue eyes were always most noticeable part of particular countries or regions. Black hair and eye color was very universal on the other hand.His built was very balanced. His upper body had wider shoulders and big arms, his chest was big enough to ali

The VoidIn the void of nothingness, where the flow of time itself didn't exist and not even a ray of light could be seen. This place was neither Heaven nor Hell. It was just an infinite space filled with absolute nothing as if the concept of life and death did not exist here.Suddenly, a crack in space appeared out of nowhere, it kept elongating at an extremely fast speed and in an instant, it stretched around ten kilometers and a gigantic figure sitting on a black stone throne which was no less than a size of a mountain itself emerged from the other side of the void.This figure was akin to the height of a couple of mountains, completely clad in majestic black clothes and had a hood on the head almost resembling the Grim Reaper itself. Its face could not be seen as if it didn't exist. It looked around for a moment and waved its right hand and created a space of its own, widening for a dozen kilometers and stabilizing itself like forming a gigantic barrier.An ancient voice, so deep

Suicide“A car accident!?” Derek yelled while rushing out of the door and looking for a cab.“We don't have any fucken car! What the hell happened!?” Derek yelled at the nurse.“I'm sorry, I'm not at liberty to say. The doctors will explain it..” Derek hung up on her.

Cheaters gameIn a palace with clouds as it's flooring and golden pillars, five beings sat on golden thrones looking at a giant screen. "You all are cheating. Zeus, I never thought you'd actually have a secret candidate!" Arkeus, Ren's Celestial god said in anger at Zeus."You think mine is bad? Just look at Orion!" Zeus retorted."Tsk! You're just sore that the only ability you gave to your candidate is a useless photographic memory. No system nor superpower. Are you so tightfisted?"
