“No need to ask them,” a voice could be heard from outside.As I looked toward the source, I found Robert Lancaster with his arrogant face approaching Michelle, who quickly grabbed his arm.“Although I cannot promise Lancaster can secure you a loan, as we are also repaying the Morgans, I can help you get a loan from Eden Bank,” he said, his tone dripping with condescension. “My father has a good connection with Kim Jiso, the CEO of Eden Bank. Don’t you worry.”I laughed. “I will never believe you can get money from Eden Bank.”“You!” Robert's face turned red with anger. “My father has already been talking to Eden Bank about a $200 million loan. We will get the money in the next two days as everything is already cleared.”“Really?” Grandma Lee said.“Can we get a $200 million loan too? We can cover our loans with the Morgans with that much money,” she asked.“Grandma Lee,” Robert added, “Sure, I can help. But I want you to kick out this lowly human. He hit me last night and caused a lo
“The Lee family own a robust agriculture and canned food distribution business. Recently, they have expanded into manufacturing with a new instant noodle factory among other ventures.” Kim Jiso explained on the third-floor secret meeting room.“Meanwhile, the Lancaster family excel in household electronic equipment, producing items such as refrigerators and electric ovens. Beyond electronics, their business portfolio includes in golf field and hotel resorts.”“However, their main source of income remains deeply rooted in their primary businesses, which are significantly more profitable than their other ventures.”“Lancester and Lee family still use their main business as collateral when asking for a loan from Morgan Bank.” Kim Jisoo continued.“Currently, we know Morgan face a cashflow problem: they want the Lancester and Lee family to repay what is originally a ten-year loan within a single month. There are both legal and illegal methods to approach this, depending largely on how far
As I walked to the top of the third year's building, I reflected on my past choices.I had always walked the 'right path,' the good path that all humans are supposed to tread. Yet, the one path I had never explored was that of the villain.Upon opening the iron door, I declared, "I have died once, what is there to fear anymore if I want to be villain enjoying my life?"Inside, I found Hendric and about five of his third-year friends.A few months ago, the former third years who had held all the school's power graduated, leaving a vacuum for the new third years.Each of them was eager to seize control of the school, and Hendric appeared to be one of those vying to show how important that power was."Alex, I never liked you in the basketball club. I order you to get out from the basketball club," Hendric said arrogantly."If you don't like me," I replied as I approached them, "why don't you leave the basketball club? Then you won't have to see me."I looked at dawn on the horizon, what
In 1999, there were no online shops, but I had the whole shop. All it took was a phone call, and they would send all the best items."You cannot do this here," a long hair woman named Dahlia protested to me."Why? I am a member of your flower club. And I help with the club accessories," I said nonchalantly, my gaze fixed on the couch that filled the club room.I settled myself comfortably.The club room, formerly a storage area, was spacious—akin to three classrooms merged into one.I had purchased four large couches."But this isn't a necessity for the club," protested Rose, another club member."Don't worry, I use my personal money. And I have bought all the pots and all the flower seeds, the best fertilizers," I said, waving my hands dismissively. "They will arrive this afternoon. So, let’s say I am helping with the club."I walked out without care about what they thought. It would be my new place, like it or not.So, my daily activity after school would be at the top of the third-
When I looked at my table again, there were fifteen love letters.So many love letters, so many people who love me, yet all of them asked me to dedicate my life only to one of them.That is an impossible thing. I grabbed all the love letters and moved to the Gardening Club during break time.I entered the club where five girls who seemed like best friends—Dahlia, Jasmine, Rose, Lily, and Daisy—were gathered.Rose, the most beautiful among them, was still cold to me, and I didn’t care. Only Daisy, smiling like sunshine, welcomed me warmly."Thank you, we have received a lot of pots and seeds," she said cheerfully."No worries," I replied, while moving to the back and slumping onto one of the couches. This place would become my perfect spot for taking rest.Not long after, two girls entered from the front with shy expressions. "I am a new student, can I join the gardening club?" one asked timidly.I smiled; the basketball club was not open to all girls to join, but the gardening club wa
On Saturday, I received a full report for my company. Bruno called me in a panic."Sir, Alex. We have a problem here on the gold mining.""What problem?" I asked. "Is it still about the mining equipment?""No, that's already handled, and all the equipment has been delivered to the mining site. Caterpillar has given us 100% support since we allowed them to use our place to gather data for them," he explained."So, what is it?""Local people from environment activities have started to demonstrate and block the road," Bruno said. "They claim it's illegal mining and will cause climate change.""What a bullshit, We have all the permits in order, right?" I asked him."Yes, we have all the permits, and there are no issues with the government." Bruno agreed.I answered, "Of course, I paid $1 million for the permits and later a few percent for the taxes. So, who are they?""I believe Ivanov's people have paid the locals and climate activists to prevent us from mining. They are blocking all the
When the school break arrived, I moved to the Gardening Club, as usual. This time, however, there were about 12 girls, including the 5 who were there before.I walked past the girls, who smiled at me, and I headed to my usual spot just to sleep without talking to them.If I speak with each of them, I'll run out of time, so I better just smile back and answer with a short sentence when they ask. It would save me time.Even so, I could feel some of the girls secretly gazing at me with admiring looks. It was enough for me to know that my popularity continued to rise as I took my nap.As the second break began, I noticed Olga joining the Gardening Club. "It seems she's really wants to save time to efficiently complete her work," I mused.To kill me."I never knew you were here. You're one of my classmates, right?" Olga approached my couch. Pretending we just meet by accident.I opened my eyes and looked at her while remaining reclined. "Просто говорите по-русски," I said in Russian, causi
As I had known, there was no way people could resist the allure of the Casanova title, which unleashed desires that were impossible to resist.She began to kiss me deeply, her hands exploring fervently.It was forbidden to make love at school, and for that special occasion, I had prepared for my long-held fantasy that had never been fulfilled before—to make love in a car.I had modified my car, making the back as comfortable as a bed.I brought Olga to the back of my car, where she continued to kiss me passionately, her hands still searching, this time grasping a knife and attempting to stab me."Damn, girl, are you here to make love or to kill me?" I exclaimed.Olga grabbed my head and yelled, "Stop talking, just kiss me!"I began to remove her clothes, and she tried her best to do the same with mine. I had never realized how long her legs were until I grasped her beautiful legs and positioned them by my sides.She had large breasts and was as horny as a wild beast, yet as dangerous
