Jerome's Mixed Emotions
Watching Lucy's retreating figure, Adam smiled quietly to himself and didn't pay it much mind.Jerome, however, was a bit speechless: "I didn't expect Lucy to work here too. Won't we have to deal with her humiliating us every day?"Adam paused briefly, then smiled slightly: "Just ignore her. Besides, who knows who'll be humiliating whom."He had already discussed all the arrangements for Jerome's position and salary with Robert. Jerome's role would be the recently vacated Human Resources Director position. Not that he would need to do much—just sit back and relax."Are we here to be security guards?" Jerome asked again.Adam scratched his head: "I don't know either. Let's wait and see what they arrange once we get inside."Jerome was doubtful. The two entered the gate and headed upstairs. Soon, they reached the sixth floor, standing before a door marked "General Manager's Office.""Oh my god," Jerome said, terrified. "What kind of job requires the general manager himself to handle thi
Can't Afford the House?
With a top-tier financial team at his disposal, Adam wasn't worried about Robert trying any financial tricks.As Adam was thinking this over, he reached the ground floor entrance. Several people were busy there, putting up a photograph in the "Owner" section.Adam glanced at it as he passed, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.He didn't linger. He walked outside, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the apartment complex.Around this time, F and Vera should be back. It would be a good chance to ask them exactly what the mission entailed.Just as Adam was leaving, the HR department at United Logistics was busy.Robert walked in with Jerome and clapped his hands: "Everyone, put down what you're doing for a moment."Everyone in the company now knew that the company had been fully acquired and that Robert had gone from owner to employee. Still, everyone respected Robert.Lucy, sitting at her desk, looked up and saw Jerome standing next to Robert. She was momentarily stunned."Isn
Boss's Photo
There was no way Dolores could catch Adam.She didn't believe Adam could afford an apartment in this complex. She thought his reappearance in the neighborhood was likely to get revenge on her and her daughter. So she chased him inside, ran a few steps, realized she couldn't catch him—and that Adam hadn't entered the building where she lived, but had walked into another building entirely.She breathed a small sigh of relief and curled her lip: "Useless."Adam couldn't be bothered with Dolores. He was grateful to Thomas Sr. deep down. But given what he had endured over these three years, not taking revenge on this mother and daughter was already the limit of his restraint. If it were the old him—He entered the elevator and went back to Vera and F's apartment.When he opened the door, a delicious aroma greeted him."Ooh, I get to eat Dr. Winter's cooking again," Adam said cheerfully. "I haven't had it in three years. I've missed it."Vera Winter, besides being a brilliant doctor, was al
The Top Floor Of The Hotel
Lucy shook her head: "Nothing. Actually... I'm not feeling well. I won't go to lunch with you. I want to go upstairs and rest.""Not feeling well?" the male coworker said quickly. "Where does it hurt? Should we see a doctor?"Lucy shook her head, ignored her coworker, and turned to walk back upstairs.She felt like this day had been incredibly unlucky. It had completely turned her worldview upside down.At the apartment complex, after eating, F and Vera went to their rooms to sleep.Adam lay on the sofa scrolling through his phone for a while when his phone suddenly rang.He picked it up and saw an unfamiliar number."Hello?""Hello, Mr. Walker? This is Richard Winthrop." Richard's voice on the other end was somewhat excited.Before Adam could respond, he quickly added, "I got your number from New York Bank's Ms. Sinclair. I gave you my business card yesterday, and you never called me, so I asked Ms. Sinclair for it. Please don't be upset."Adam thought for a moment—oh yes, that had h
Playing Matchmaker
The elevator fell silent.Chloe and Ethan, who had been mocking Adam, thought they had seen wrong. They blinked, confirming that Adam had pressed the highest floor.Then, their mouths slowly opened, their eyes filled with disbelief.This was the top floor of the Four Seasons—not open to the public at all. Only those with the closest connections, the absolute top tier of New York society, had the privilege of going there.Not even Grace or Marcus had ever been up there."Ding—"After a moment, the elevator stopped. The doors opened, and two uniformed servers at the entrance greeted them with sweet smiles: "Welcome to the Four Seasons Hotel Top Floor."The four were still somewhat dazed.Adam smiled: "Are you getting off?"Only then did the four snap out of it. Ethan swallowed hard.Marcus, however, wore a mocking smile: "Looks like after yesterday, you made quite an impression on Viola Sinclair. She introduced you to other people, huh?"His implication—Adam was once again hired help, a
Conspiracy
"I know about that," Natalie jumped in. "Ethan has been pursuing Viola for a long time. Yesterday, when Adam appeared as Viola's boyfriend, Ethan was obviously upset."Richard narrowed his eyes: "These second-generation rich kids, most of them are spoiled wastrels. Do you want me to knock him down a peg for you?"Adam shook his head: "Don't worry about it."Richard nodded. He had clearly witnessed the terrifying power this man possessed. An Ethan Blake was indeed nothing."If you need any help in New York, make sure to tell me," Richard said sincerely. "I will do everything in my power to assist you."Adam paused thoughtfully: "Now that you mention it, there is something I'd like to trouble you with.""Oh?" Instead of showing any reluctance, Richard looked excited. "What do you need me to do?"Adam coughed: "It's not a big deal, really. I just hope you could look after United Logistics a bit in terms of business. After all, you're New York's richest man. Just throwing a little busines
Uncle William
Adam sipped his drink while waiting for Natalie to return.Before long, a server walked over: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Adam Walker?"Adam nodded: "Yes.""Ms. Viola Sinclair would like you to come over," the server said with a smile.Adam was slightly surprised—he hadn't expected Viola to be here too. He looked around but didn't see her."Ms. Sinclair is in a private room on the second floor," the server continued.Adam nodded: "Alright, lead the way."The server led Adam upstairs and pushed open a private room door. Adam stepped inside and frowned slightly.The room was quite quiet, with several people sitting inside. The moment Adam walked in, the door was closed behind him, and two large men stood at the entrance with their hands behind their backs.Adam raised an eyebrow and looked around. He didn't see Viola in the room. Instead, he saw Grace, Marcus, Ethan, and Chloe. The others he didn't recognize at all.Inside sat a young man with dreadlocks, smoking a cigarette, looking at Ada
Fake Drunk
"Thud—"In a private room on the second floor of the bar, Danny knelt before Adam with a thud.Ethan and Marcus, each slapped once, sat there in a complete daze.Grace was even more stunned. This Danny, who in the words of Ethan and Marcus feared nothing and ran roughshod over New York, had suddenly knelt before Adam.The stark contrast left her completely dumbfounded.Danny knelt on the ground, a fawning smile on his face, looking up at Adam: "Mr. Walker, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I had no idea you were a friend of Mr. Winthrop. I wouldn't have dared to provoke you even if you'd paid me a hundred times. Please be magnanimous and don't hold this against me."Adam was inwardly amused. He could guess what had happened—after he disappeared, Natalie had contacted Richard, and Richard had made a call to sort things out.Beside him, Grace was even more stunned.Adam was friends with Richard Winthrop? The richest man in New York?Ethan and Marcus's mouths twitched. They couldn't quite figure
The Attack
Dolores stared at Lucy in astonishment, then said dismissively, "How is that possible? Don't we know exactly what Adam is worth? If he could afford to buy your company, he wouldn't have been pulling rickshaws. And our Grace wouldn't have divorced him—she would have been kissing his feet.""It's true, I'm not lying to you," Lucy said worriedly. "And I feel like he's targeting me. Yesterday, my boss argued with him at the door because of me, and then he got fired for no reason.""You're overthinking it. It's probably just someone with the same name," Dolores said dismissively. "Don't borrow trouble."Lucy shook her head: "His photo is on the company's owner wall."Dolores still didn't believe her. She curled her lip: "Are you sick? Are you hallucinating? Let's say, for the sake of argument, you're not wrong—but have you considered that if Adam were this rich, would he have needed to pull a rickshaw on the streets for three years?""So I don't know what's going on either," Lucy said, her
The Maniacs' Assassin
"Tsk tsk, it seems our intelligence was off."A voice came from the living room. Then, with a click, the living room lights came on.On the sofa, a young man with dyed blond hair sat sprawled. A dagger was twirling in his hand. He looked at Adam with a mocking expression."The intel said Natalie Winthrop's bodyguard was useless. But you were able to detect me—clearly, the intel was wrong."Adam said nothing, sizing him up in return."Not bad composure," the young man said with a grin. "Calm in the face of danger. Too bad you're already a dead man.""You?" Adam chuckled softly."Yes, me," the young man said flatly. "Because I am The Maniacs' youngest elite assassin."He paused, a disdainful smile curling his lips: "You've probably never heard of The Maniacs, have you? Of course not. Secret organizations like this aren't something a regular person like you would know about. I already didn't expect you to find me. But... in thirty seconds, you'll be dead. If you have any last words, say
