As Scott returned to the table where Daniel and his family were seated, the other diners in the restaurant couldn’t help but stare, their gazes filled with curiosity.

"Did you hear what he just said? Who is this guy, really? Is he actually that wealthy?"

"He looks the part, sure. But if he’s really some big-shot tycoon, wouldn’t we know who he is? At the very least, we should’ve seen him around."

"As far as I know, there are only four top-tier families in this city: the Winterbournes, the Beaumonts, the Valderhelms, and the Ravenwoods. I doubt this guy belongs to any of them."

"Or maybe he's from one of the richest families in another city? Like the capital?"

These were just some of the whispers that filled the room. Scott heard them all but paid them no mind.

Status and recognition from these people meant nothing to him. He kept walking forward. Reaching Luisa’s fallen chair, he bent down to set it upright.

"Scott, what are you doing? Why did you throw away that jewelry set?" Luisa

    The attention of everyone in the restaurant turned back to the table occupied by Daniel's family.Luisa froze, staring at Scott and the waitress with wide eyes. She couldn't believe what she had just heard.Daniel and his family looked confused. Unlike Luisa, however, they stared at Scott with judgmental eyes."What did you say?" Scott asked after wiping the leftover wine off his face with a napkin."Don't play dumb, you motherfucker! A month ago, you took me to a hotel and slept with me when I was drunk. Then you just left, leaving a bit of money for me. Do you think I'm some kind of prostitute?!" the waitress accused angrily.Scott looked at her in bewilderment. He had no idea who this woman was. He had never met her before, so how could he have done what she claimed?"Are you sure you have the right person?" Scott asked, annoyed."The right person? You're a real piece of work! You just wanted to enjoy my body, didn't you? Now you're trying to weasel out of it when I demand you take

    Realizing that the person before her was the new owner of the restaurant where she worked, Agnes, the director of The Silver Crescent, was about to bow respectfully to Scott. However, Scott quickly signaled for her not to do that.Agnes furrowed her brow and looked at Scott, confused, but then she gave a slight nod. She understood—there were important people who didn't want their identities revealed. Scott was clearly one of them."Don't listen to him! He's my ex-fiancé, and I know exactly what he's like. He’s a jerk. This poor waitress is just one of his many victims," Lisa said.Agnes shot Lisa a disdainful look. How dare she call her new boss a jerk! Should she shove a stack of tissues into Lisa's mouth?For now, Agnes chose to hold back. After all, she didn’t yet know what kind of person her new boss was. It was possible that he disliked employees who couldn’t maintain their professionalism.At this point, she noticed that Scott's suit and shirt were slightly damp and stained red.

    The two security guards nodded, doing as Agnes had instructed.Jasmine struggled and hurled the vilest curses at Lisa as the guards dragged her away roughly.Lisa glared back at her with hatred. Her chest was heaving, and her hair was disheveled.“Now, I hope there won’t be any more disturbances at this table. If there’s another incident, I’ll have to ask you and the others to leave,” Agnes said, giving Lisa a cold stare.Lisa stared back at Agnes, panting. If there had been a mirror in front of her, she would have seen how terrible she looked.Agnes glanced at Scott, looking for a signal from her new boss. Scott nodded. Agnes understood it as appreciation for handling the recent trouble. She turned around and went back to her office.After Agnes left, the atmosphere at the table was awkward.Lisa slowly sat down, trying to fix her hair as best as she could. Daniel lowered his head, rubbing his temples.They were all trapped in an uncomfortable silence. Meanwhile, Scott continued to e

    "I'm busy tonight. Let's talk tomorrow. Meet me at Crystal Belle Bridal around 1 PM."[Understood, General.]Scott ended the call and placed his phone on the car's dashboard."What is it, Scott? Is there a problem?" Luisa asked, looking at Scott with concern."Nothing," Scott said, shaking his head with a smile."You sure?""Yeah."Luisa eyed Scott suspiciously. He smiled again and turned his gaze back to the road. In his mind, he tried to guess what sensitive information Zach would share tomorrow.There were many people he had killed while avenging his grandfather's death. Among them, some had families or relatives whom Scott hadn't eliminated for one reason or another.Scott suspected the sensitive information Zach mentioned was related to one of those people.And of course, Luisa shouldn’t know anything about this. Scott had to keep everything related to his past away from her....The next day, just after lunchtime...Scott and Luisa had just arrived at Crystal Belle Bridal, one o

    Matt tumbled backward, blood streaming from his nose.Ursula screamed hysterically. Luisa and the store clerk gasped, covering their mouths with their hands."How dare you call my fiancée a 'whore'! Say it again, and I'll rip your tongue out!" Scott threatened.Matt gasped. For some reason, Scott seemed terrifying right now, even appearing larger than life."Matt, are you okay?"Ursula rushed to Matt, squatting down to give him a handkerchief, instructing him to press it against his nose.Then she glared at Scott with rage, saying, "Do you know who you just punched, huh?! He's the son of an active military general!"Hearing Ursula mention his father, Matt shook off his earlier sense of inferiority. He wiped the blood from his nose and mouth with the handkerchief and said,"Yeah, my father is a high-ranking, strategic military general. I'll call him and have his men come here to teach you a lesson. You're dead, son-of-a-bitch!"Scott remained silent, staring at Matt without blinking. U

    As the commander of the strongest battalion in Mildenbrough, Zach was both feared and respected by the high-ranking military officers in the city’s other battalions, including Teddy Buckmann.Rumors abounded that Zach was a strict and unwavering leader, known for his ruthless treatment of those who crossed him.Teddy Buckmann wasn’t about to risk his flourishing military career. In moments like these, he needed to be clever. Refusing Zach’s demands was not an option.“Understood, Lieutenant General Zach. I’ll cancel the credit card my son uses. I’ll also block his access to my wealth. Hopefully, this will earn your forgiveness for my earlier insolence,” Teddy said.[Good. Do it now.]“Yes, sir.”Zach ended the call and tossed the phone back to its owner.Matt leaned forward slightly to retrieve his phone, disappointment etched on his face as he missed the chance to ask his father what had transpired. He now stared at Zach with apprehension.“What else do you have to boast about, you b

    “What the hell are you waiting for, you bastards?! Shoot this phony soldier now!” Matt shouted, hoping he could incite the soldiers his father had sent.“Captain, your orders?!” the soldier next to Ernest demanded.Ernest and Zach had been locked in a stare for nearly a minute. He knew he had to make a decision now.“Lower your weapons! We’re leaving!” Ernest finally commanded.The soldier next to him and the others looked shocked, but they obeyed Ernest without question.Without another word, Ernest turned on his heel and left the room. The other soldiers followed him.Matt stood there, dumbfounded, unable to believe that his father’s men had just ignored him. This was the first time one of his commands had been disobeyed, and it left him shaken.“Y-y-you...” he stammered.He was so shaken that it was all he could manage to say.“So, what now? Got any more tricks up your sleeve?” Zach mocked, flashing Matt a condescending smile.Matt stared at Zach, his mouth open and his hands tremb

    Scott had completed the purchase of the $55 million wedding dress. Now, he was sitting on the sofa in the room, waiting for Luisa, who was trying on the wedding dress. If the fit was slightly off, the boutique staffs would take care of it.There were no issues with the purchase process itself, but the behavior of the saleswoman made him frown.Earlier, several times, the ponytailed woman seemed to lean in deliberately and, for some reason, she had left the top three buttons of her uniform shirt undone.Scott could see the saleswoman’s cleavage, though he quickly averted his gaze. He remembered that when Matt and Ursula were around, the saleswoman had only left the top button of her uniform undone.Not wanting to dwell on it, Scott picked up a fashion magazine from the table and flipped through the pages, hoping to find something to read.Before he could start, the ponytailed woman approached him.“Mr. Scott, would you like me to get you some coffee or tea?” she asked.Scott turned to

    At the Battalion I military headquarters in downtown Mildenbrough....In his office, Zach couldn't sit still. He repeatedly stood up, sat down, and stood up again, also pacing back and forth. He was made anxious by Scott's mobile number that suddenly couldn't be reached.'What happened? Maybe his phone ran out of battery? But surely it hasn't been charged for hours? Or maybe he blocked my number? But, why would he do that? Did I do something wrong?'For years, being Scott's right-hand man and trusted person, Zach had always been able to contact him, in the sense that his phone calls always connected and his chat messages always went through. But this time, neither happened. It was only natural that Zach would be restless.This morning, he tried to contact Scott to report the latest situation about their counterattack against Lisa, the mastermind behind the misleading rumors that had caused Scott and him so much trouble. Initially, he tried to call, but his call didn't go through. He t

    I Want To Call Someone

    It took a few seconds for Lisa to regain her composure and finally dare to ask, "W-what do you mean, Dad?"Lisa's gaze at this time was a combination of confusion and anxiety. Her brothers also looked confused, although they didn't look anxious."Did you not hear my words clearly? I said starting today you are no longer part of this family. You are no longer my daughter," Daniel said.Lisa was no longer as stunned as before, but she was still very shocked. Her eyes blinked while her mouth was open. She couldn't believe her father was making such a painful decision for her, so quickly."B-but, Dad..."Before Lisa could finish what she wanted to say, Daniel suddenly stood up. With his gesture showing that he was the leader among them, he looked at each of his sons one by one and said,"I agree with you. We do have to formulate a plan to deal with this situation, but we'll talk about it tonight at home. Now let's just focus on our work tasks for the whole day. Imprint in your minds that

    It's Getting Worse For Lisa

    As agreed, Scott got out of the car not far from the Dominion Group office. He let Luisa drive his black McLaren, while he himself would take a taxi home later.On the sidewalk where people were passing by, Scott stood watching his black McLaren head towards and enter the Dominion Group office area. After making sure everything was safe, he turned his face, and also his body, towards the road. He felt like he was pretty hungry.Scott was about to look for a cafe or restaurant in the area through his phone, and it was only at this point that he realized his phone wasn't in his pants pocket.'Where's my phone? Did it fall in the car?' he thought.He tried to remember if maybe his phone had fallen out of his pants pocket while he was driving earlier, or when he got out of the car, but he couldn't get a clear picture of either.He then thought, maybe his phone was left at the motel, but he didn't remember if he had put his phone on the bedside table or in another place in the motel room h

    Something Beyond Normal

    Luisa was startled by Lisa's raspy voice, as if she had just been crying all night. But she was even more surprised by what Lisa said. Even though she didn't see Lisa's facial expression and the look in her eyes, she could feel the towering anger that was controlling Lisa.Hearing those words of threat made Luisa uncomfortable. Her hands suddenly trembled and her chest pounded. Finally, she decided to end the call. And, because she was worried that Lisa would call again, she decided to block Lisa's number.Right at that moment, Scott woke up. Slowly, his eyelids opened. Luisa quickly put Scott's phone on the floor, right next to Scott."Luisa? Why are you here?" Scott asked after blinking."Actually, I should be asking you that," Luisa said, smiling wryly. "Come on in. Continue your sleep inside."Luisa stood up first, gesturing for Scott to get up and follow her into the room.Scott quickly got to his feet, worried that Luisa would close the room door like a few hours ago.

    Had Never Been This Chaotic

    Olivia and her three sons were shocked by what Daniel did. They knew Daniel was temperamental and liked to be rough when he was angry, but they didn't expect him to go that far.After all, the one Daniel had just slapped was Lisa, his own daughter. And the slap he had just delivered was very hard. Lisa even tumbled off the sofa, falling under the table."You're not only useless but also stupid! And because of your stupidity, our family is now on the brink! What do you think will happen if we're all fired from Grandier Corp. and crossed out from the family lineage? Where will we get money from then? How can we meet our needs? Have you ever thought about that before executing this bad plan of yours?!"Daniel berated Lisa while leaning forward and yelling at her. His eyeballs looked like they were going to pop out of their sockets.Lisa didn't give any response. She didn't even raise her head and was busy wiping the blood coming from a small cut on the corner of her lip. Her tears flowed

    Lisa's Punishment

    At Daniel's family residence...Almost an hour had passed since the news broadcast about the sudden press conference held by the Mildenbrough Police Department. Right now, all the family members were gathered in the living room. The atmosphere was tense.'This is bad! This is so fucking bad! What are we going to do now?"Daniel asked that question in a high tone, with a flushed face and wide eyes.No one dared to raise their face, let alone look at Daniel. Even his wife, Olivia, chose to remain silent and turn her face away.And among those people, Lisa was the most visibly tense and scared. It was only natural. The misleading rumor about Scott and everything related to him, which had caused a stir throughout the city in the last 24 hours, was her doing. So when the current situation became like this, the person most to blame was Lisa."Why are you just staying silent like fools! Say something, god damn it!" Daniel cursed, almost yelling.His wife and children flinched. But still, the

    Scott sighed wearily. Problem after problem kept hitting him. The night seemed like it would be very long.Just as Scott was about to leave that room to follow Luisa, Anne suddenly grabbed his hand and held him back. Scott turned, finding Anne giving him a very serious look."Scott, there's no guarantee I'll give you another chance besides this. Are you sure you want to waste it?" Anne asked.Scott shook his hand that Anne was holding, then left without saying anything.Anne took a deep breath while watching Scott's back move away and finally disappear. As she exhaled, she vaguely heard the sound of a police siren."Scott Goodman. An interesting man. One day I will surely conquer you. We'll see," Anne muttered, smiling slyly.Meanwhile, on the second floor of the motel...Scott had just stepped on the last step of the stairs and he saw the door of the room he was staying in slammed shut.Scott quickly approached his room, trying to open the door, but it was locked.Knock! Knock!"Luis

    This Isn't What You Think

    The woman whose hands and feet were tied with ropes to the ends of the bed was Anne. Scott could recognize her that quickly because they had just met this morning."You bastard! You're pretty brave, huh? You think you can push me like that without facing the consequences?"The big-bodied man got to his feet. He snorted while showing off the muscles in his arms, chest, and stomach. It seemed that he was someone who trained in weightlifting quite intensely. Even his wide neck looked stiff and hard.Scott ignored his surprise at seeing Anne there for now. He focused his attention on the big-bodied man and prepared to land a punch on his face.Whoosh!Scott easily dodged the blow, then launched a counterattack, punching the big-bodied man right in the solar plexus."Argh!"The big-bodied man vomited blood, his eyes widened. A moment later, his eyelids closed and he collapsed. Just one punch from Scott was enough to knock him unconscious.Now Scott turned his eyes to the bed, finding Anne

    Luisa came out of the bathroom, wearing a kimono-shaped towel that covered her body up to her thighs. While tying a small towel around her hair, she asked Scott, "What was that just now? I thought I heard a scream.""There was someone screaming," Scott said. "It seems like it's downstairs.""The room renter?""Could be."The woman's scream was heard again. This time it wasn't a scream, actually, it was more like a yell.Neither Scott nor Luisa could hear it clearly. They exchanged glances and seemed to be guessing what the woman was saying, who she was talking to.At this point, the woman screamed again, almost as loud and shrill as before. Scott reflexively stood up. His jaw tightened."Do you want to check downstairs?" Luisa asked.Scott looked at Luisa, asking, "May I?"Luisa rolled her eyes, but then nodded. "Go ahead," she said.Scott then left their room. Luisa sighed. She knew she couldn't stop someone like Scott from staying quiet and pretending not to know when something happ
