“One month. You have exactly 30 days to earn 43 million dollars,” Brielle said with a raised voice. “If you are short on even a single dollar, then you will sign the divorce papers and hand them over to me.”“I will,” Kevin did not drag things out with her. “Can we eat now?”“You can, but you don’t get to feed my daughter in the mouth. She’s not a kid!” Brielle snorted.“He’s just being loving, Mom,” Cecilia voiced her mind.“Hmph, what good is that love when it only gives you small pleasures but fails when it matters the most?” Brielle said right where it hurt Kevin.He got up from the chair.Cecilia told him to sit, but he said he lost his appetite and then went to his room.“Mom, couldn’t you have even let him eat in peace?” Cecilia frustratedly said.“All it took is a few words for me to ruin his mood and make him stop eating,” Brielle coldly said. “You think a guy like that is capable of earning 43 million dollars let alone be your husband? I don’t think so. He’s only good for be

Even after the call ended, Kevin kept thinking about his mothers and some of the sweet and sour memories they shared together.Before talking with his mother, he wasn’t feeling good because of his little quarrel with Brielle.But now, he felt better.“I’m not as patient or great as you think, Mom. I just challenged my mother-in-law. It felt like something I had to do back then, but now… it feels like I was arrogant back then.“You are right, Mom. I can make them respect me without having to shout at them or challenge them. I just have to succeed in business. I have been trying to do the same thing to prove myself, but they never gave me enough room to grow.“But now that I have the showman system with me, I can grow. I will grow… to heights that will shock them.”He kept remembering his mother’s words: You can’t have both your dad and the bread at the same time.By the time Kevin was born, his parents were already rich. There was no need for his mom to say such words, but still, she b

The next morning.Kevin woke up a bit late because he couldn’t sleep well last night. He kept thinking about his future with Cecilia, and all the possibilities that could happen didn’t allow him to sleep peacefully.Thanks to that, Kevin was really motivated in the morning.After bathing, he came downstairs.Everybody almost finished eating breakfast.Kevin went straight to Cecilia and put his hand on her shoulder.This was the first time he touched her like that in a long time. When was the last time?On the wedding day!Naturally, Cecilia’s heart fluttered for a second.But she did not expect what would happen next.Kevin leaned closer and planted a kiss on her right cheek.Cecilia’s heart melted from that kiss. It completely took her by surprise and froze her in her chair.The O’Brian family members had their eyes widened very much.Brielle ground her teeth and was about to shout, but Kevin said, “The thirty day challenge starts from today. I will kiss you again after I succeed.”B

Kevin stopped the car outside the community hall.It was a pretty spacious building.Kevin and Ethan got out of the car and approached the entrance, but two tall men acting as guards stopped them.“Do you have passes?” they asked. “We only allow those who have registered for the classes. If you don’t have the ID, then go back. Register for the classes online and then come.”“Let me register for both of us now,” Ethan told Kevin and took his mobile out.The two guards snickered. “Someone’s really eager for the touch,” they whispered among themselves.Ethan didn’t hear them, but Kevin did.“Are you two gay?” Kevin asked them.“What?” the guards got angry. “What did you just say?”“You were giving off that vibe, so I asked. Don’t take it the wrong way,” Kevin was saying, and one of the guards threw his fist at him.Kevin dodged easily and slapped him with the back of his hand.The guard spun twice before pathetically crashing and hugging the floor like a dead frog.The second guard was s

The music hadn’t even started and the dance instructor, Master Brago, was already smirking like he’d swallowed the moon.His arm was half-extended toward Cecilia as if he was expressing his wish to dance with her after he quickly dealt with Kevin.And this upset Kevin.“I was a bit hesitant, but screw that…” Kevin stepped forward. “You are begging to be embarrassed, so I’ll do just that.”A heartbeat of silence.Then the room exploded in laughter once again.Ravier clutched his stomach, the dance students gasping between giggles.“You look like you struggle to walk in a straight line,” Brago openly mocked him. “And you want to beat me in my own playground? There’s a limit to how high a worm can look! Get ready to be crushed under my boots1”Kevin did not argue.He simply raised a brow.Inside his mind, a voice rang.[Skipping beginner, intermediate, advanced, and master dance levels.][Grandmaster dance mode unlocked.][Showman System is in full dance mode activation.][Activation in
