Chapter 41
Clara left the office even though her workday wasn’t over yet. She was still completely fed up with what had happened earlier. Her face clearly showed that she was in a terrible mood. Clara decided to calm down at a café, enjoying a cup of coffee and watching the traffic go by near the window. “Oh, my God.” Clara let out a long sigh. “I really hate today. Peter had the nerve to humiliate me. He acted like some kind of savior, when really he was just getting back at me. My father didn’t even hesitate to get down on his knees and beg him.”“Is it true that Ryan and his family have bad intentions? I haven’t seen anything suspicious about them so far. Ryan and his family have treated me very well.”“If it’s true that Ryan just wants to take advantage of my family and me, I... I... honestly don’t know what to do. My family’s situation is really bad right now. Among all my friends and colleagues, only Peter is willing to help.”“Even though I’m really annoyed to admit it, I regret betrayi

In the end, Peter decided to meet the person. His curiosity far outweighed his fear. Peter followed a man. When he entered the room, someone was already sitting at a table, their face hidden by a hat. “A woman,” Peter muttered. “Sit down now. I don’t have much time,” the woman said as she lifted her hat and took off her glasses. Peter was still standing near the chair. “You... Jennifer Thoman.” Jennifer rolled her eyes. “I already asked you to sit down, didn’t I? Why are you wasting time?”Peter sat down across from Jennifer. “What do you want from me, Miss?”Jennifer let out a long sigh. “I don’t need to tell you who I am because you already know me. I’ll get straight to the point. I know you’re the one who gave me the note during the incident at the restaurant the other day.”Jennifer glanced at her watch. “It took me quite a while to figure out you were the one. I ordered my subordinates to check the CCTV footage before the incident, then scan the voices of all the guests that

Famous singers performed on the large stage, and colorful lights adorned the venue.Unfortunately, Simon, Clara, and Sean were not present. The plan to embarrass Peter had ultimately failed miserably.Mike had been visibly angry from the moment the event began. He kept grumbling and trying to keep badmouthing Peter in front of everyone. However, no one really cared.Peter chose to stay in the car, observing the crowd from a distance. He ordered some of his bodyguards to check on the event and return with a report."Mr. Mike is furious because the plan to embarrass me failed. After all, Simon was the mastermind behind the plan. Since he's out of town, he couldn't attend. Everyone chose to focus on the event.""Besides, most of my classmates chose not to attend. This event is becoming less enjoyable.""Let's go," Peter said to the driver.

Sean opened his eyes. When he regained consciousness, he began to sob uncontrollably.Peter immediately fell silent, swallowing back his words. He watched Sean intently, not moving from his spot.Sean wiped away his tears, though the crying wouldn't stop. He began to pound his body and pull at his hair."You jerk! Why is my life so unlucky?"Sean stopped crying and looked up at the ceiling. "Where am I now? Wasn't I in the car earlier? What...""You look so dumb when you cry, Sean," Peter said."Ah!" Sean was so startled that he fell to the floor. He winced in pain, unable to scream at Peter.Peter remained silent as he watched Sean roll around on the floor. "I won't help you anymore, Sean.""So, you brought me here, Peter?""Not only that. I also paid for your hospital bills."Sean fell silent and sobbed again, his body shaking.Peter felt sorry for him, but he grew irritated as he remembered everything Sean had done to him.Sean was just as much of a jerk as Simon.Peter walked towa

“Ah!” Sean screamed, jumping forward. Unfortunately, his foot caught on the trash can and he fell.The man sitting on the trash can burst out laughing and jumped down. “You’re ridiculous for a thug.”Sean grimaced in pain, forcing himself to get up, but failed after several attempts. He suddenly felt nauseous after accidentally swallowing dirty water.“You don’t look like a thug. You’re… someone who’s just been evicted from their home.”Sean stood, holding onto the edge of the trash can, rubbing his rumbling stomach. He turned to the man, but couldn’t see his face clearly.“Take this!” The man in the black hat tossed him a loaf of bread. “This bread tastes terrible, but it’s better than scavenging for food in the trash.”Sean looked back at the bread and the man. “You didn’t put poison in this bread, did you?”“Huh?” The man laughed. “Why would I put poison in it? What good would it do me if you died?”Sean considered the situation for a moment before finally eating the bread. He vomi

“That man is dangerous. I mustn’t let him influence me.”Sean ran as fast as he could, through narrow alleys and up small staircases, until he finally reached a fairly open area.“I suspected he was a drug dealer. My life is bad enough as it is. I don’t want to make things even harder for myself by getting caught by the police and ending up in jail as a prisoner.”Sean wiped the sweat from his brow and clutched his rumbling stomach. “That bread gave me a stomachache. Damn it, I’m starving and have no idea how to get food. There’s no way anyone would just suddenly give me free food.”“I can give you as much delicious food as you want, Sean,” said Seno, standing atop the building.“What?” Sean was so startled he took a few steps back. He was sure he’d run as fast as he could to get away from Seno.“I’m interested in making you my partner, Sean. But why did you suddenly run away like that?”“I-I don’t want to be a drug dealer. If you want to help me, you have to give me a good job.”“I’m

News of Sean’s expulsion spread throughout the class. Some of his friends laughed at him instead of helping him. It was as if they had forgotten that they had once shared stories and fun with Sean.After hearing the news, Simon decided to go to sleep. However, he was given a new task that required him to leave the cramped dorm to buy a few things.Clara was holed up in her room after a huge argument within her extended family. The family business was once again facing major problems due to the actions of Ryan Johnson and his family, which had caused a rift within the extended family.Clara wept uncontrollably as she recalled her college life not long ago. Back then, she had been a cheerful and happy girl, not the gloomy, stressed-out girl she was now.At the same time, Cindy was lost in thought at her desk, staring in disbelief at a string of messages from her classmates about the news regarding Simon, Sean, and Clara.“Everything Peter said the other day has come true.”Cindy slumped

Peter watched the cityscape from the car window. His attention was suddenly drawn to several workers who had just gotten off the bus. The workers looked so exhausted that some of them stumbled and bumped into one another.Peter was suddenly reminded of his own misfortunes during his time at university. In addition to studying to keep his scholarship and maintain his grades, he also had to make ends meet by delivering food at a small eatery. The pay wasn’t much, but he learned a lot about life.“If I hadn’t gained this ability and met a man named Patrick, I would surely have ended up just like those workers. Intelligence isn’t enough to survive in this crazy world. In the end, relationships and family play a very important role.”Peter closed his eyes and fell asleep. As the car drove down a deserted street, several people suddenly appeared and blocked the road.“What’s going on?” Peter asked when he realized the car had stopped moving.“Some thugs are blocking the car, sir. The others

Peter went on vacation after working quite hard the past week. He spent his time surfing and diving in the ocean, hiking up hills, visiting interesting places, and doing some shopping.Peter handed over his office duties to his trusted staff. Following the instructions in an ancient book, he became even more dedicated to physical training and strengthening his mind and spirit.Peter stopped searching for Sean after getting no results. Instead, he had already figured out who was behind the attack the other day.Peter was relaxing on the beach while enjoying some fruit and a drink. A gentle breeze blew, followed by the soft crash of the waves.“Thomas was the one who ordered the thugs to attack me. He said he was very angry with me. After I met him at that dinner, those thugs attacked me on my way home.”“I met with some masked thugs to look into their pasts. As a result, I was able to see their pasts clearly.”“There are a few possibilities. First, my abilities have improved along with

“I don’t know what gift I want yet, sir,” said Peter, “Can I tell you once I know what I want?”Jeremy smiled. “That’s a wise choice. I don’t mind waiting to find out at all.”Jeremy handed him a business card. “You can call that number if you come up with an interesting wish. I’ll do my best to grant it.”“Thank you, sir.” Peter slipped the business card into his jacket pocket. “I’ll make the most of this opportunity.”“Jennifer mentioned that you were on the cruise ship during the shooting incident involving one of my colleagues. Is that true?”“Yes, that’s true. I was in my cabin when the shooting and the riot broke out. Unfortunately, one of my friends got caught in the middle of the panicking crowd, so she was injured and lost consciousness.”“Do you think it’s possible that the shooter on the cruise ship is part of the same group as the people who tried to harm me at the restaurant?”“I’m not really sure, sir. It’s just that some anonymous users on a forum said they’re likely pa
