Later that day.Rob sat down in a park not far from Serenity company.He waited for more than an hour.“I thought he’d come, but I’ve waited enough…” Rob was getting up, but then he saw a man in a hat and goggles entering the park.Smiling, he sat down.The man in the hat came straight to him and sat down next to him.“;How did it go?” Kevin asked.“I won’t call it a failure, but I didn’t succeed, either,” Rob said, acting like he was reading a newspaper. “He wants to meet you. Face to face.”“What’s your opinion on him?”“My opinion?”“Aren’t you an aura user?” Kevin said.Rob was quite surprised. “Since when did you know?”“I guessed it when you said you’ll meet Jim Draknor. Now that I met you in person, I can tell.”“Huh, you must have gotten hold of some strange systemic power,” Rob laughed. “I don’t sense any abnormal aura from you, so it must be some crazy system.”“Well… we can talk about ourselves later, so tell me about this Jim Draknor. Is he worth meeting?” Kevin asked.“To

At the dining table.Venessa was smiling as she looked at all the family members.“It’s been a while since we all ate together like this,” Venessa said.Cecilia was seated right next to her grandmother.Venessa put a small box in front of her granddaughter, puzzling others. “Don’t open it. It’s a gift for your husband.”“For Kevin?”“Give it to your husband,” Venessa stated.Cecilia smiled. “Okay.”Brielle couldn’t even force out a smile. “Aunt, when are you leaving? Do you need me to arrange flights? Just tell me.”“You don’t have to worry about my flight trips anymore, Brielle,” Venessa laughed. “I’m staying here for a while. I’m not leaving until I see Serenity get back to its feet.”“That’s…” Brielle was not expecting this.If Venessa were to stay here, it would be highly inconvenient for her.Brielle looked at her daughter-in-laws for help.“Grandma,” Naomi showered a beautiful smile. “I’m going to a flower park this evening. Will you come with me?”“Oh, I would love to, but I th

Like a deer that would freeze in extreme winters, Kevin’s body froze against his will.He managed to generate heat and break free before he got frozen deeper.His opponent Gabe, however, didn’t seem the least surprised.Kevin, on the other hand, was huffing and puffing. He tried to talk with the system, but it wasn’t responding. It went utterly silent as if it didn’t exist.Kevin looked at Gabe who looked like he worked out once or twice a month. How can such a guy exude such powerful chilling energy?Just standing in front of him was making it difficult to breathe.“H-How can there be such a gap between us?” Gritting his teeth, Kevin lunged forth and threw his fist. “Silver Fire Fist!”His fist burned through the air and zoomed onto his opponent’s face.Gabe blocked it with a single finger.Kevin’s eyes froze in disbelief.“The ability to turn your body into steel…” Gabe uttered. “Is it one of the abilities your showman system granted you?”Kevin’s eyes enlarged to the max. “H-How do

Orland’s hands shivered as they approached the ties tying the toilet tools around his waist. “Y-You cannot do this to me, the great Orland O’Brian!”“You better remove that only if you’re gonna clean, Uncle,” Kevin warned. “Otherwise, I will take you and leave you in a pig farm. You’re gonna sleep with the pigs for a few days and nights so you’ll grow grounded.”Orland’s hands stopped.He couldn’t remove the ties around his waist anymore.“Good choice. I heard that pig shit smells much worse than chicken shit,” Kevin said. “So, you did the right thing. Now, go and clean the toilet. I didn’t even apply sauce, so all you gotta do is clean it. I’m giving you a relatively simpler task, so do it and impress your son and daughter-in-law who are watching you. Show them what you can do.”“Fuck you,” Orland uttered and then started walking toward the toilet.Dabby and Naomi couldn’t believe that Orland was actually willing to clean the toilet.Orland was somebody who wouldn’t listen to anybody

In the evening, Cecilia and her grandmother came to a wedding party.They also brought Emma and Max along to lift up their spirits.What Cecilia loved about her grandmother was that she always tried to be cheerful and kept the people around her feeling the same, especially those she liked.Cecilia still remembered all the times she went with her grandmother to many parties. It brought back all those memories to her.But right now, the reason for coming to the wedding was more than just to greet the wedding couple.It was to find investors for Serenity company.Cecilia had already tried calling Jordan Wang, but Jordan Wang did not even want to talk about the deal unless Kevin came off clean.She tried some other businessmen as well, but none of them came forward to support.She could use her own money, but that wouldn’t do much for the company’s image. It would do a lot more good if some big investor were to turn toward their company.This was why Venessa brought Cecilia to the party.
