The head of security and his two subordinates immediately approached Felix with meaningful smiles on their faces; this made Felix wary as he realized something wrong was about to happen to him.
"Hey, do you know who you just hit?" the head of security asked.
"What's your problem? Why are you meddling in my business with him?" Felix raised his eyebrows.
The head of security laughed, then said, "Of course I need to interfere when the one you just hit is a VIP customer of this bar."
"That's right, don't expect you to get away with it after messing up here. Hahaha, after all this time, there's finally a fool who doesn't think about the consequences of his actions."
The two subordinates of the head of security said that with clenched fists, as if they couldn’t wait to beat Felix up for what he had just done.
"Hey, loser. Do you know how respected I am here? I don't even need to intervene myself because the guards here would be willing to take my place to do that," Vector said with a sardonic smile.
"That's right, Mr. Vector. We'll do anything for you as long as you're happy and not disappointed," said the head of security.
Vector is a well-known customer who does not hesitate to spend a lot of money every time he drinks at the bar. This makes every worker there get directions to treat him as well as possible, including the security.
"Now have you realized your stupidity, loser? Don't you think you can get off easy after daring to hit me with your dirty hands?" said Vector.
Felix looked at Vector sharply. He had known for a long time that Vector was an asshole, and this was one of the proofs.
"Are you afraid to face me? That's why you made them do it for you, right?" Felix asked angrily.
Hearing this, Vector laughed. He clearly realized there was something Felix was trying to do with his words, and he refused to be influenced or provoked by Felix's provocation.
"Loser, do you think your words will change the situation? I'm not some idiot who's going to get angry over something like that; after all, even if I beat you up, you'll still end up the same as when they did it." Vector pointed at the head of security and his two subordinates.
The head of security and his two subordinates immediately nodded in agreement. Vector was notoriously tough for an ordinary student, and they recognized that.
"Mr. Vector, we are honored that you are willing to entrust this kind of thing to us," said the head of security.
"That's right, Mr. Vector. The next time you experience something like this, don't hesitate to ask for our help."
"Exactly. We'll be happy to take your place for that. The same goes for Mr. Reynard; if you don't mind, please convey this to him as well if the opportunity arises."
The head of security and his two subordinates respected Vector not only because he was a VIP customer, but also because he was known to be close to Reynard, the young master of the Filbert family.
The Filbert family's influence could be said to be quite large in the city of Aberfoth, evident from how Vector could get this kind of treatment just for being close to one of their young masters.
Vector immediately smiled in satisfaction at how the head of security and two of his subordinates tried to lick him; this made him feel even bigger in front of Felix, who was a nobody.
"Now you realize the difference between us, right, loser?" asked Vector proudly.
Felix was silent; the only thing he could realize about Vector was how pathetic he was. What's even more pathetic is when Vector feels proud just because he's getting special treatment that's indirectly only because of Reynard.
It's even more ironic when the fact that Vector's closeness to Reynard isn't because they're friends or anything like that, but rather a boss and a pet, means that Vector can be discarded at any time by Reynard.
"Why are you silent? Do you now feel regret for having the nerve to mess with me?" asked Vector.
Unable to stand Vector's ramblings, Felix finally said, "The only thing I regret now is that I have to keep listening to your ramblings."
"Hahaha, this loser is tired of living," said Vector as he signaled the head of security to get ready.
"Tell us what to do, Mr. Vector. We'll carry out your orders to the best of our ability," said the head of security.
"Make him sorry, so sorry that he has to kneel before me to beg for mercy." Vector gave his orders.
The head of security and his two subordinates moved at once; they approached Felix, who seemed to be wary of their arrival.
"Don't blame us too much for this; blame your own stupidity, loser!" the head of security exclaimed.
Felix clenched his fists tightly, ready to fight even though he knew he would lose.
The head of security and his two subordinates were much bigger than Felix. Not to mention, they were already familiar with fighting, so the chances of Felix winning were almost nonexistent.
Vector, who had the same assumption, was just enjoying everything that was going to happen from his desk. He sat back and relaxed with a glass of wine in his hand.
Vector looked like a moviegoer with his favorite popcorn, eagerly awaiting a favorite scene from the movie he was watching.
"Don't hesitate; if necessary, break both his hands so he doesn't dare to hit me again," Vector said with a big smile on his face.
"As you command, Mr. Vector!" said the head of security and his two subordinates in unison.
Felix is furious at Vector's behavior. However, Felix couldn't do anything to counter his arrogant behavior because the head of security and his two subordinates were now getting closer to trying to do something to him.
In the middle of the situation, a man in a neat suit came out of one of the rooms.
The commotion seems to have reached the ears of the man, who is none other than the bar manager.
"What's going on here?" The bar manager asked for an explanation with a displeased expression.
"Mr. Manager, there's a troublemaker who suddenly arrived," said the head of security.
The bar manager raised his eyebrows and asked, "Troublemakers?"
"That's right, Mr. Manager. He has dared to hit Mr. Vector, our bar's VIP customer." The head of security gave an explanation.
The bar manager's expression instantly soured, momentarily turning to Vector to confirm the truth of the remark.
"Manager, long time no see. What your subordinate said is true; that loser had the nerve to hit me here in your bar," said Vector as he approached the bar manager to say hello.
"How dare he? Does he think my bar is a place where people can come to mess around?"
The bar manager immediately ordered the head of security to drag Felix before him, which the head of security did immediately.
Seeing how angry the bar manager was, the smile on Vector's face widened even more. Vector felt that what Felix was going to get from now on was nothing but misery, as the bar manager was notorious for being cruel to people who dared to mess around in his bar, let alone offend his VIP customers.
"You're finished, loser," Vector muttered.
The bar manager looked at Felix sharply, trying to intimidate him. Felix noticed this and immediately realized that the manager must be on Vector's side, which made his situation even more disadvantageous."Hey, is it true what my head of security said?" the bar manager asked.Felix chose to remain silent, knowing that whatever he said would not change the situation."Hahaha, this loser must be pretty desperate right now," Vector said as he watched.Felix's silence made Vector feel even more victorious. This created an urge in Vector to make Felix realize the difference between them."Loser, are you sorry now? If so, kneel down. Maybe I can forgive you if you do that." Vector had a dismissive smile on his face.Felix just stared at Vector wordlessly. Kneeling before someone who had hurt his friends, he would never do that, even in his mind."Mr. Vector, do you want us to force him to kneel to your will?" the bar manager asked.Vector nodded. "Do that."The bar manager immediately told
Felix returned to the dormitory not long after, wanting to check on the condition of his friends and intending to take them to the hospital to receive treatment."Felix, you're finally back. Where did you go?""Felix, you didn't do anything stupid, did you?""I hope he didn't, because our university life would be over if he did."Kody, Eric, and Levin immediately bombarded Felix with questions; they were curious what Felix had just done when he came out."Take it easy; I didn't do anything. You better get ready; we're going to the hospital as soon as possible," Felix said."Going to the hospital? I don't think that's necessary, Felix.""That's right, we're fine."Kody, Eric, and Levin were united in refusing Felix's invitation; the hospital fees were not cheap, and the three of them did not have enough money for that. They told Felix this, hoping he would understand.Felix heard this and could only let out a long sigh. Both Kody, Eric, and Levin were from ordinary families. The three
Felix, who felt that what the security guard was doing was excessive, finally said, "Can you stop treating us like we're troublemakers? We just came to eat, nothing else."Felix didn't want to disappoint his friends by not inviting them to eat there. Not to mention, his friends hardly ever eat at such places, and he wanted to make this a lasting experience for them.Felix now had the money to do that, but it seemed useless just because of the restaurant security guard's bad opinion of him."Felix, never mind. Let's just go back to the dormitory," Kody said, worried that the restaurant security guard would speak ill of Felix again."Felix, what Kody said is true. Our presence here seems to be a nuisance to them," said Eric, realizing that the eyes of the restaurant patrons were starting to look down on them."I agree; after all, we're not so hungry that we have to beg like beggars just to be let in," said Levin.Noticing the disappointed expressions that his three best friends were try
In the middle of Felix's conversation with the old man, the restaurant security guard approached them in a hurry.The security guard, of course, recognized who Felix was talking to—the owner of the restaurant—making the security guard wonder what the owner of the restaurant had to do with Felix."Sir, what's wrong?" asked the security guard, who saw how frantically the restaurant owner tried to catch up with Felix.The restaurant owner looked at the security guard with an unhappy expression. He had noticed from the beginning how the security guard treated Felix.At first, the restaurant owner didn't budge. It wasn't until the restaurant owner recognized that the person who had just been kicked out by his security guard was Felix Garvin that he tried to catch up with him to apologize."Fool, how dare you kick Mr. Felix out of my restaurant?" snapped the restaurant owner."What do you mean, sir?" The security guard was full of questions."Are you still asking? You're so bold, and you do
Around 8 p.m., Felix was sitting on one of the benches in the university park, not far from his dormitory. In his hand, Felix held the gold ring he had just bought. The ring that Felix had fought so hard for over the past few months. He does several part-time jobs in the midst of his busy studies, lives frugally every day, and does many other unpleasant things, all of which Felix considers worth it if it is for someone very special to him. "Anne will be happy," Felix muttered, imagining his girlfriend's happy face. Anne could be said to be the source of Felix's enthusiasm to continue living his university life. Even though it was hard at times, for some reason it would suddenly lighten up if Felix thought of Anne. "Is there something holding her back that she hasn't come yet?" Felix muttered. Felix looked at the clock on his cell phone; it was already past 8 p.m., which meant Anne was more than half an hour late from their original date. Despite feeling a little worried, Felix
Felix rides with Clarita in her luxury sedan. Clarita takes Felix to the large hospital in the center of Aberfoth."Is my grandfather being treated here?" asked Felix when they arrived.Clarita simply nodded, then took Felix to the top floor of the hospital.Felix soon arrived at the hospital's VVIP ward, seeing as how there was only that one room on that floor."Your grandfather is inside, Mr. Felix."Felix immediately entered the room in question before seeing an old man with his pale face closed."Grandpa ...."Felix froze right beside the old man, his eyes staring intently at the face that had once looked dignified but now looked weak and helpless."How could a Dalbert Garvin end up like this?" Felix was full of disbelief.Dalbert Garvin was the leader and founder of the Garvin Group business empire, a well-known name in the city of Aberfoth, and the most influential figure there.Who would have thought that a figure who could make everyone reluctant and even afraid when hearing h
Clarita noticed the change in expression on Felix's face, which made her look up at him and ask, "Is there anything I should do to get them out of your sight, Mr. Felix?"Felix smiled slightly. "No need, just leave it alone."Felix said that only because he didn't want Clarita to be bothered by his troubles, even though he was actually very disturbed by their arrival.Reynard and Anne soon arrived at the table Felix was at, both looking at Felix with a condescending look in their eyes right after."Well, what is this? It hasn't been long since you broke up with Anne, and now you're already dating another woman? This is the first time I've ever been amazed by a loser like you," said Reynard.Felix stood up from his seat, glaring at Reynard, who was now right in front of him."Loser, how dare you stare at my boyfriend like that?" asked Anne unhappily.Felix glanced at Anne for a moment. He let out a long sigh because, as far as he remembered, Anne was not this type of girl."I'm trying
After leaving the cafe, Clarita decided to excuse herself to take care of what she should have taken care of a long time ago.Clarita felt she had to get back to making Felix the main heir as soon as possible, which could no longer be delayed as Felix's grandfather's condition had not improved from his critical condition."Mr. Felix, I will contact you later to report anything you may need to know."Felix simply nodded. Seeing this, Clarita drove away in her luxury sedan.As Clarita was leaving, Felix suddenly received a text message on his cell phone from an unknown number."Have you seen the surprise I've prepared in your dorm, loser?" Felix muttered, reading the message.Receiving such a message, Felix suddenly remembered his three roommates, who were the only ones who had been there for him over the past three years since he left home. This obviously made Felix worry that something bad might happen to them.Felix hurriedly tried to get back to his dorm room. He ran for a while, fi
