They started the morning with some exercise. First, they jogged around the neighborhood, then spent some time at the gym before returning to the apartment for breakfast. William boiled several eggs, and the two of them sat down together to eat. “Are you very busy today, William?” asked Sean, who was already full despite having eaten only two boiled eggs. William, who was halfway through his fifth egg, swallowed before answering. “Today I’m going to Little Heaven, I’m also going to check on the construction of the restaurant that will start today.” “The restaurant from yesterday?” asked Sean. William nodded. “Yes, after the number of restaurant visitors increased, we couldn’t continue using that small restaurant. So, the restaurant will move once the branding is strong.” Sean nodded slowly, staring at William as if he were trying to understand how the young man managed to handle so many things at once. William was genuinely dedicated to his work, and Sean could now understand why

“Let me open the door.” Sean immediately headed toward the entrance, leaving William behind as he caught his breath after being attacked with the sofa cushion. [Your first mission today is to find the identity of the person who has been terrorizing Sean with death threats] [That person is at the door] [You must hurry! An attractive reward awaits you] [If you fail, you will regret it] The moment William saw the system’s warning, he rushed out of the room. Sean had already opened the door, but there was nobody outside. Fortunately, the person William was looking for had not gone far. He spotted a figure heading toward the emergency staircase, clearly trying to escape without being noticed. William immediately chased after him. If he hadn’t jumped down several steps and grabbed the person before he reached the next floor, he might have lost him. “Where are you going? Come with me now!” William whispered as he dragged the person back toward his apartment. Sean had already stepped o

William had an exhausting schedule that day. He started at Little Heaven, then spent some time at his office before leaving again after lunch. His next stop was a vacant piece of land near the Arcelia River, where he met Jayden and the architect who would be responsible for designing their new restaurant. They wanted to settle the design before construction began so they wouldn’t have to make unnecessary changes later. “I like classic designs that give a luxurious impression… so that visitors who come feel like they are kings or nobles as soon as they enter the restaurant. I like that kind of impression,” said Jayden. The architect listened carefully before nodding. “I think I have some ideas for that. I’ll make the design right away, then I’ll contact you,” said the architect. Coincidentally, the architect was a woman, and Jayden seemed quite pleased about that. According to him, considering all the details he had described, a female architect would probably understand the kind of

“Come on, if you want this problem to be solved quickly, you have to help me find David.” Deva looked genuinely frustrated by William’s suggestion. “But I don’t want to contact Vicky! Are you crazy?” William clicked his tongue and leaned against the wall behind him, clearly growing impatient with Deva’s hesitation. It was around seven in the evening, and they had gone back to Jayden’s restaurant for dinner. This time, the group included William, Sean, Deva, and Travis. Arvin had also become interested in the restaurant after seeing the posts made by the three young celebrities, so he had decided to join them. While everyone else was busy eating, William quietly pulled Deva outside. He wanted Deva to contact Vicky and find out where David was so they could confront him and hopefully get answers. Deva was nervous, especially because William had initially said that he wanted to handle everything alone. Dealing with David wouldn’t be easy, and Deva couldn’t shake the feeling that som

Cherry Liquid was the same nightclub where William had once seen Trent and Selene together. It was one of the most popular nightclubs among young people, especially those who enjoyed spending their evenings in luxurious surroundings. The place was expensive, crowded, and well known for attracting wealthy customers. “Oh, there’s Deva! I’m going to go over to him, have fun without me, okay?” Vicky said as soon as she spotted Deva sitting alone near the bar. She quickly made her way toward him, leaving David to find a seat of his own. David looked around before approaching the bar and taking an empty seat. “What are the most expensive drinks here? I’ll order a few, please give me your recommendations,” David said to the bartender. “Do you want something expensive or something delicious, sir?” asked the bartender. David grinned. “Are the expensive ones not delicious? Give me the best!” The bartender took that as a challenge and immediately began preparing one of the finest drinks av

Your mission is complete! [Your first mission has also been successfully completed!] [Your reward of one million dollars has been sent to your personal account] [3 points have been added] William smiled faintly before turning his attention back toward the waves rolling toward the shore. The waves were fairly large that day, which explained why several surfers had gathered in the area. The southern side of the beach usually had stronger waves than the eastern side, making it a popular spot for surfing. “William, can you help me make a video and take some selfies for me? I have to do it for social media,” said Sean. William nodded. “Sure, where do you want to take the photos?” Sean handed him his smartphone and began looking around for a suitable place where they could take pictures and record a short video. The best option seemed to be the small hill nearby. It stood roughly fifteen meters above the ground and wasn’t far from where they had been sitting earlier. Wild cosmos flow

“Come on, let’s go downstairs. I want to buy some young coconuts. Did you know that there are young coconuts whose skin is edible?” said Sean. He sounded cheerful again, as though the painful story he had just told William had never happened. “Don’t be silly, it’s impossible to eat young coconut skin, it tastes weird.” “I don’t really believe it either.” William was still holding Sean’s smartphone as they made their way down the hill. He took another picture of Sean just for fun, capturing him as he walked down. Since he already had the phone in his hand, he also took several pictures of the scenery around them. The view from the hill was beautiful, especially with the wild cosmos flowers blooming across the grass, so William photographed those too. Then several notifications appeared on the screen. William intended to return the phone to Sean, but his finger accidentally touched one of the notifications. The screen immediately changed and opened Sean’s social media notification p

“Your story made my head spin, William,” Deva complained. William, who had been busy with his smartphone, looked up at him and chuckled softly. “Are you still thinking about that?” “Were you actually talking about my aunt? I mean, was that story about her?” William laughed when he heard the question and nodded. “Yeah. Why did it take you so long to figure it out? That’s the story I just told you.” Deva’s eyes widened, and his thick eyebrows rose so high that William couldn’t help finding his expression amusing. “Hahaha, why do you look more shocked than me?” “Then… the other man and woman you mentioned are…” “They’re my father and mother. It turns out Sandra got my father drunk. At that time, it seemed like your aunt was dealing with some problem, probably something involving your uncle. While my father was drunk, Sandra slept with him. My father apparently didn’t realize what had happened, or maybe he knew but couldn’t do anything about it. Later, he met my mother, they got mar

William, now disguised as Deva, made his way toward the kitchen, trying to move naturally so nobody would notice anything unusual. Just as he was about to reach the kitchen, a bedroom door opened. William turned and was surprised to see Trent stepping out. “Oh, Deva… why are you out? Is William asleep?” asked Trent. William nodded, suddenly feeling uncomfortable being around Trent while wearing Deva’s face. “Thank goodness he’s asleep. Where are you going?” Trent asked again, already looking interested in following him. “I’m going to the kitchen to make a drink. I feel like having hot chocolate.” “I’ll come with you!” Damn it. William had forgotten how often Trent followed Deva around. Trent rarely bothered Deva only when William himself was already with him. It was incredibly awkward for William to have Trent trailing behind him everywhere. Even if William only got up to take two steps toward the kitchen to grab a spoon, Trent would probably follow him. “Trent, sit there and

The phone suddenly rang, pulling William out of his sleep. He opened his eyes slightly and glanced toward the window. Judging by the light outside, it seemed to be around noon already. Who could be calling him at this time? Still reluctant to get out of bed, William rolled over and slowly sat up. His hand automatically reached for his smartphone. He glanced at the screen, saw Evan’s name, and immediately answered. “Hello, Evan? Hmm… what? What flowers? Oh… what did you say? Okay, see you later.” William stayed quiet for a moment after ending the call, trying to process everything Evan had just told him. Apparently, all the rose seeds Evan had planted were growing extremely well. In fact, they were developing far faster than anyone had expected. It had been less than a month, yet every seed had already grown into a young plant, and some of them had even started producing buds. Evan had spent the morning pruning the roses and taking care of the plants. He also told William that busi
