Chapter 191
William had lost count of how many times he had sighed that night. Sleep refused to come because his mind was crowded with too many thoughts, especially everything Leon had told him. No matter how hard he tried to push those words aside, he kept returning to the same questions.What exactly was the Papillon group trying to accomplish? William was convinced they had some enormous objective behind all the crimes they committed. They were not simply making money. They seemed to deliberately create crime and disorder wherever they operated, as if the chaos itself served a greater purpose.Could William really defeat an organization like that? The more he learned about them, the more he realized that their influence and resources were far greater than he had originally imagined.For the first time in a long while, William felt genuinely worried.[You have the system, master][You also have the fairy king’s ring, you can use that ring for good purposes]William frowned slightly before takin

That morning, William woke up feeling surprisingly refreshed. His mind was still crowded with everything that had happened recently, but somehow, he managed to get out of bed early and still felt good. For once, he did not wake up feeling exhausted or weighed down by his thoughts.It was only around six in the morning, and the mansion was still quiet.William went downstairs to the kitchen because he wanted to prepare the meat-filled tofu he had bought with Jake the previous day. Unfortunately, there was not much left for him to work with. Leon had taken most of it when he visited the penthouse, leaving William with only a small portion.He started by frying the tofu until the outside turned a beautiful golden brown and the center became slightly flatter. Once the tofu was done, William placed it aside to cool while he prepared the filling.He had shrimp, lobster, and chicken available, so he combined all three types of meat and ground them together. He added mushrooms he had bought f

William looked around the rooftop once more before turning back to Celine.“Why are we eating here? We could eat somewhere better,” said William.As promised, William had agreed to have breakfast with Celine that morning. What he had not expected was for her to take him all the way to the rooftop of the Hayper building. The rooftop had been transformed into a small garden, complete with flowers, trees, and several benches. Celine had chosen a quiet spot beneath a bougainvillea tree, whose branches stretched over the fence and were covered with bright flowers.There was nothing wrong with the place itself. In fact, it was quite beautiful. The problem was that they were completely alone. The rooftop was unusually quiet, and Celine had even used her own key to open the door so no one else would come up.“This is the best place, William! Try the sandwich I made, it’s an egg sandwich, I tried my best to make this for you,” said Celine.She picked up the sandwich she had prepared herself an

When William opened his eyes, the first thing he noticed was the familiar ceiling of his bedroom in the mansion. He immediately pushed himself upright and called out, hoping someone nearby could explain how he had ended up there.It turned out that Trent was the only person close enough to hear him.“Why am I here? What time is it?” William asked frantically.“Jake brought you here about an hour ago. It’s ten in the morning now. Go back to sleep if you’re not feeling well,” said Trent, who looked genuinely concerned about him.William suddenly tried to get out of bed, but Trent quickly spoke again.“You can go back to sleep,” said Trent.“No, I… I should be at…”The memory of that morning suddenly came back to William. He remembered having breakfast with Celine, drinking the strange beverage, and then falling asleep after Athena neutralized the stimulant and replaced its effects with a sleeping pill.William’s head began to spin as soon as he remembered everything.“You can sleep agai

William felt as though he were briefly looking back at the life he had once lived, a time when he was willing to take almost any job as long as it paid. He had worked in dirty places without complaining and accepted jobs that most people would have avoided. As long as the work was legal and he could earn enough money to survive, William had never been picky.There had been days when finding money was so difficult that he ignored his hunger and exhaustion just to keep going. Even earning a single dollar had sometimes felt like a struggle, and there were moments when he wondered whether things would ever become easier.Now, however, something as simple as sharing food with workers reminded William of those days. Seeing their faces brighten because someone had given them free food and raincoats so they would not have to walk home soaked made him genuinely happy. It was a small gesture, but to people who had very little, that small gesture meant a lot.William did not stop with the worker

“Mr. William?”Brian immediately got to his feet when William suddenly appeared at his house.At the time, Brian had been sitting on the porch, preparing pesticides to spray on the small garden beside his home. The rainy season was always difficult for people who grew plants because insects became more active and caused more damage. The constant rain also left the ground muddy, making it easier for bacteria and other problems to spread through the soil. Brian had even prepared some pesticides for the gardens at William’s mansion.He had not expected William to visit him, especially with Trent.“How are you, Brian?” asked William.“Fine, but why are you here? Especially now that it’s still raining,” said Brian.William smiled and gave Brian a friendly pat on the shoulder.“It’s calmed down a bit, and besides, I want to talk to you about work.”“Oh, in that case, please come in, sir. Wait a minute, let me tidy up the living room first.”Brian hurried inside and quickly gathered Viena’s

“Did you buy those gardens?” asked Evan.That night, Evan arrived at William’s mansion with Jay. They did not have any particular reason for coming. They simply wanted to spend some time together. Jay had also just received a huge amount of chocolate from a cousin who had recently returned from traveling through several countries. There was so much chocolate that Jay knew he would never finish it by himself, so he decided to bring most of it to William’s place.Since Nicho and Sofie were also staying at the mansion, Jay had heard about the little girl William had rescued. He assumed she would be there too, but it turned out that Twaila was taking care of her.“Yup! I bought everything! Now I have a coffee and tea plantation, and the view there is very beautiful! Currently, there is a problem with some of the coffee trees, but it will be resolved soon, so it will definitely recover quickly,” said William, looking quite proud of what he had accomplished that afternoon by purchasing the

Earlier, Trent had said he was going to take a shower. That had been almost an hour ago. He had told William that he would join them once he was done, but an hour had passed and Trent still had not come downstairs.Evan and Jay were already sitting in the living room on the first floor, waiting for him. They had been ready to start another game for a while, but William had noticed that Trent was taking unusually long.William eventually went upstairs to check on him. When he reached the second floor, he knocked on Trent’s door. There was no answer. The door was slightly open, so William pushed it open and stepped inside.“Trent?” asked William as he walked toward him.Trent was sitting quietly on the edge of his bed. He had not even changed after his shower and was still wearing only a towel. William also noticed that the floor around him was wet, with drops of water scattered across it from his freshly showered body.“Trent, what’s wrong?” William asked as he placed a hand on his sho

“I just don’t want to bother you, William,” Trent muttered, turning his face away because he couldn’t bring himself to meet William’s sharp gaze. William had already noticed how much Trent was avoiding him, and his patience finally ran out. He reached forward and held Trent firmly by the shoulders.“I’m not bothered. In fact, if you keep me in the dark and make me worry, I’ll get annoyed, so hurry up and tell me what’s wrong. I can’t sleep because I’m thinking about you. What kind of brother would stay silent when his other brother is in trouble?” said William. His voice carried enough irritation to make it clear that Trent had genuinely upset him, but beneath that irritation was obvious concern. William wasn’t angry because he wanted to pressure Trent. He was angry because he cared.Trent never imagined that he and William would reach a point where they could depend on each other like this. They were brothers, after all, and despite everything that had happened between their families

Trent sighed again, but William’s words did little to reassure him. The worry on his face remained, and he still looked as though he was expecting something terrible to happen.“He’s not afraid of the law at all. I think he has someone who is immune to the law. Because he has been imprisoned several times for killing people… and do you know who he killed? They were people who had dealt with me! I think he also targeted you, but because we now have a good relationship, he changed his mind, but still. It’s possible that Rita’s life is now in danger.”William wasn’t completely convinced that Hansen was truly untouchable. There were people in the world with enough influence to avoid punishment for a long time, but William also knew several powerful people who could fight someone like that. If Hansen really had connections protecting him, William believed he could still find a way to deal with him.“I think you’re worrying too much, Trent, calm down… I’ll make sure he gets the punishment h
