Ken's heart was still beating a little faster.The smile on his face had yet to disappear as his gaze shifted back to the other nine rewards.Until now, all of his attention had been consumed by the System Warehouse. So much so that he had almost forgotten the remaining nine rewards hadn't been properly examined yet."Hopefully there's something decent too."He slid the transparent panels aside one by one.Stamina Recovery Card, Luck Coupon, Skill Upgrade Fragment.Several materials that he had never even seen before.Ken nodded slowly. Although none of them could compare to the Legendary reward, they were all still useful. At the very least, not a single one felt like a waste.His finger continued sliding to the next panel, then his movement suddenly stopped.Ken's eyebrows slowly rose."...Huh?"A light-blue panel was displayed before him.[0.8% Minority Share of Silver Fork Hospitality Group]The room suddenly fell silent once again.Ken simply stared at the words without blinking.

Ken raised his gaze toward the Silver Fork sign, the corner of his lips curling into a faint smile."I'm here to eat."Silence fell, as though every sound around them had vanished for a brief moment.The security guard blinked twice."Eat...?"Ken nodded casually."Yeah, I'm here for lunch."For several seconds, the guard simply stared at Ken's face before his eyes unconsciously drifted down to the delivery jacket he was wearing, his plain trousers, and shoes that were obviously far from expensive.None of it matched the kind of customers who usually came in and out of a luxury restaurant like Silver Fork.Before he could find the right words, a soft chuckle came from the side.Lizzy covered her lips with the tip of her finger as though trying to suppress her laughter. Unfortunately, the slight curve at the corner of her mouth only made the mockery even more obvious."Ken..." She looked at him for a moment before slowly shaking her head. "Do you even know how much a meal costs here?"

"Mr. Ken!"A man in a black suit, around forty years old, hurried out of the restaurant. His strides were long and steady, while a staff member behind him was practically running just to keep up.The moment he reached the entrance, his eyes locked onto Ken.Then his steps slowed.His gaze carefully studied Ken's face, then the delivery jacket he was wearing, his simple pants, and finally returned to his face."You..."His brows furrowed slightly.The night before, headquarters had sent out a notice regarding a new minority shareholder. Along with the notice came a photo and brief profile that every branch manager was instructed to memorize.But...Not even once had he imagined that shareholder would show up wearing a delivery jacket.For a brief moment, he genuinely hesitated.Is this really him?His eyes carefully examined Ken's face once again. Then his pupils widened slightly.There's no mistake, he murmured inwardly.The face was exactly the same as the photo he had seen the previ

Ken leaned back in his chair. He picked up his glass of water again and took a slow sip. His gaze swept across the entire restaurant.At lunchtime like this, nearly every table was occupied. Waiters moved calmly from one table to another, while the aroma of food drifting out of the kitchen occasionally made Ken's stomach rumble again."..."Just then, the sound of slow footsteps came from beside him.Ken turned his head.An elderly man was walking leisurely with the support of his wooden cane. His expression was as flat as ever, but his eyes went straight to Ken's table.Without asking for permission, the old man pulled out the chair across from Ken."Move over."Ken blinked."...Grandpa? How are you here?"The old man snorted softly."What, does this restaurant belong to your father?""..."Ken immediately let out a small laugh."That's not what I meant.""Good, good!" The old man sat down casually. "I eat here all the time.""Oh..."Ken nodded slowly. Judging from the old man's deme

Daniel stood tall beside the table. A faint smile still lingered on his face as his gaze swept over Ken from head to toe, as though he had just stumbled upon an unexpected source of entertainment.To him, an opportunity like this was simply too good to pass up."You used to spend your time sucking up to your superiors. And now..." The corner of his lips curled even higher. "Looks like you've leveled up and started sucking up to rich people instead."He let out a quiet chuckle. His gaze briefly shifted to Adrian and the old man.Several customers who had been enjoying their lunch gradually stopped talking. The clinking of forks and spoons slowly faded. One by one, heads turned toward the source of the commotion.Ken let out a slow breath and placed his glass back on the table. Seeing Daniel arrive with Lizzy, he finally understood why his former supervisor had treated him so poorly the last time they met.Still, it didn't surprise him, considering who Lizzy's boyfriend was now."Mr. D
