"People say that after marriage fortune will flow more smoothly. But what is this? Not only is there no fortune, but my life is becoming more miserable by the day!" Arista, Felix's wife, washes the dishes so roughly that it makes a loud noise.

"I'm sick of living like this! Having a husband is completely useless. Working from morning to evening, being exposed to heat and rain, even getting ugly, but still not earning anything!" Arista continued to speak angrily. Her loud voice went along with the clinking of the plates on the shelf with a slight stomp. Even the running water splashed everywhere. "My life is unlucky! Bad husband, can't make any money, the house is like a pigsty, ah, how horrible life is!"

Felix, who was eating, could no longer stand Arista's ramblings. He took the last bite of his cracker and raised his gaze to stare at the back of the woman who was his wife. "Arista, can't you do the work without talking?"

"No!" snapped Arista as she rubbed the pot vigorously, making random loud noises.

Felix closed his eyes for a moment and stood up. "I've worked hard enough so far, but why are you never satisfied? Every day you just keep blabbering and calling me incompetent. Aren't you embarrassed to have your words heard by the neighbors?"

With that, Arista put down the pot she was holding threw down the dishwashing sponge, and turned around. She looked at Felix with angry eyes. "Working hard? Felix, I'm telling you, working hard isn't enough! You also have to rely on your brain to make more money! Look, you work until you're blue in the face, but what's the result? Nothing!"

"I'm not at all embarrassed if the neighbors hear my words. After all, that's the truth. Why, are you embarrassed?" Arista was getting worse and worse. She did not look like she was talking to a husband.

"At least we can eat our fill," said Felix, who was still trying to contain his emotions. He didn't want any fuss on such an early day. "You know yourself, finding a job is hard. We're lucky enough to have a house and never lack for rice."

"But that's not enough!" cried Arista. She took a step forward, stared at Felix with a glare, and then pointed boldly at his face. "Do you think life is just about eating and sleeping? No! I also need vacations, fancy jewelry, and cars. Felix, if I'd known you'd end up like this, I wouldn't have wanted to marry you!"

"Enough, Arista!" snapped Felix. His face was flushed with his jaw hardened to the point that the veins in his neck were visible.

With clenched fists, he said, "I'll pretend I never heard anything from you today. Just like before."

After that, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen after picking up the brown hat that lay on the dining table.

Seeing him leave so casually, Arista became even more furious. She ran after him and shouted, "I hate you! A husband who is incapable of making his wife happy! In your little brain, you only know how to eat and sleep, and that doesn't reflect the attitude of a responsible man! If I could turn back time, I would never want to know and marry you, poor Felix!"

But Felix didn't care at all. He put on his hat and walked out of the house. And when he reached the terrace, he found the neighbors already standing in his yard.

His gaze became cold.

He looked at them warningly.

The gossiping mothers immediately dispersed when they saw Felix's terrifying figure. But before leaving, they still had time to whisper to each other to make fun of Felix.

"If you have enough free time, I will voluntarily teach you what it means to whisper and how to do it," Felix said flatly.

With that, everyone no longer dared to be outside. They immediately entered their respective houses and closed the doors tightly.

"You bastards," muttered Felix as he casually walked away.

After being laid off five years ago due to the bankruptcy of the company he worked for, he had been working odd jobs.

Anything, as long as he could make money, Felix accepted.

And now, there happened to be a project in one of the big housing estates. He worked there as a manual laborer.

The location was not too far away, but it took about 20 minutes to reach by foot.

After a while of walking, accompanied by the condescending looks of the people around him who knew him, Felix finally arrived at his workplace.

"Wow, our manual laborer has finally arrived!" A man sitting at the back of a barstool freight car greeted Felix's arrival.

Several other men immediately turned their heads when they heard this. They laughed with a scornful look.

"Woi, Felix, quickly go to your place! We've been waiting for you for a long time! If this keeps up, this project will take forever to finish!" shouted a man standing on top of a half-finished building.

Felix looked up and nodded, then took a small jog towards the equipment storage area.

A man approached Felix, who was wearing a safety helmet. He tapped him on the shoulder and said seriously. "You should buy a vehicle so you can get to work quickly. There is no need to live too frugally. You should make yourself happy with your hard work once in a while."

"Right," said a man who had just arrived. He pretended to tidy up a pile of workers' safety vests and when he saw Felix about to leave, he quickly followed. "If you don't have enough money, you can borrow some from us. There's no need to be shy, we're friends. Of course, if you don't have money, you can come to us."

There was nothing strange about the words, but their tone was insulting.

Felix spontaneously stopped his steps and looked at the two men on his right and left. "Thank you for the offer. However, I'd rather not buy anything if it's borrowed."

With that, he resumed his steps at a slightly faster pace. Reluctant to engage those who loved to bring up the same topic, money.

He had lived this kind of life for a long time, so he was no longer affected by such things.

So what if you don't have a lot of money? Does that sound embarrassing?

Do they think Felix doesn't want money? Felix wanted to. He wanted to be rich, but there was no power, he was only given this.

"Sigh, what's the point of being so arrogant?" The man on the right clucked sarcastically and walked away.

As for the other man, he was annoyed by Felix's arrogance, which he found very annoying. So he shouted, "Felix, you're poor enough as it is, don't be so pretentious! There's nothing wrong with borrowing money as long as you don't look too pathetic!"

This brought laughter from some of the workers.

Felix was not bothered at all.

He made his way to the cement mixer and set about his task diligently. However, while digging in the sand, he noticed something shiny. Out of curiosity, he put down his tools and picked it up, which turned out to be a ring with a ruby-red stone.

  • The System Tree

    “Austin, what are you talking about?” Felix slowly stood up, trying to suppress the anxiety in his heart.“Have you found the secret room? Why so suddenly? Do you know who told you?” Austin’s rapid-fire questions only made Felix look around even more.However, there were no surveillance cameras there.Besides dust and spider webs, the walls of the square room were clean, with no traces of anything.It seemed to be used solely for storing that rusty machine.“You don’t need to look for me anymore. I’m in the room, still at my place.” And as if sensing Felix’s movements, Austin spoke again.But this only made things feel more suspicious.Everything the boy said sounded like he knew everything, as if he were in a hidden corner of the room.“How did you know?” Felix finally spoke in a cold voice.“You should have come to me first. Clarita knows nothing. Even though she was the oldest before you came, she’s still just a spoiled girl who only knows how to have fun,” Austin said like a matur

  • Is Austin A Spy?

    Mr. Oswin stood on the porch of his house, gazing at the dark and empty night sky, with not a single star shining, making the sky appear even darker and more distant.“I wonder if he succeeded or not. I hope he can get rid of it soon.” There was a moment of silence after Mr. Oswin spoke these words with a tone full of hope. “Everything should have been revealed and proceeded as it should.” He took a deep breath and continued, “Regardless, he is the only one I can rely on.” One of his neighbors noticed him standing in the darkness of the night without any light from his house and squinted to see him more clearly.“Is that really Oswin? That’s unusual. Why is he out here?” Without hesitation, she began to walk away from her yard. “Oswin!” she shouted in surprise. However, Mr. Oswin seemed calm, not at all surprised. “Why did you suddenly come out of the house? What’s the matter?” asked the neighbor, standing next to Mr. Oswin and looking up at the sky.Upon seeing the emptines

    Feliz remained silent where he stood. Meanwhile, the figure resembling his father continued to wear a broad smile that gradually began to look eerie.“Felix, how are you?”The question came out of nowhere, and Felix chose to ignore it.His feet moved again, carrying him into the library, toward the back row of bookshelves.Thick dust had covered the floor and everything inside the room.Even the sturdy wooden shelves were filled with dust. The smell was so strong, very characteristic of a room that had been abandoned for a long time.“Why didn’t you greet me? Don’t you miss me? We haven’t seen each other in a long time. Felix, why have you become so ungrateful? I am your father. Look at me!”“Felix, look at me!” The voice sounded urgent. “I never taught you to be an ungrateful child. Even the Pratama family always reminded you to remain devoted to your parents.”“I’ve only been gone for a short time, but you’ve changed so much. Felix, don’t you miss me? I’m your father. Just look at m

  • The Family Library

    "They treated him like a tissue that they threw away after they no longer needed him. The young man was very unfortunate. He came with the hope of having a family, but in reality, he was hurt by his own hopes," continued Mr. Oswin.His expression changed between anger and disappointment as he said this.“If he hadn’t accepted the adoption and refused like his two siblings, maybe none of this would have happened.”Felix took the photo and stared intently at the figure of Zay Pratama.Then he put it back down and looked straight ahead. “So, where is he now?”Instead of answering, Mr. Oswin burst into laughter.Felix looked at him expressionlessly, but in his sharp eyes, there was great confusion.“You’re really asking this? Felix, I didn’t know you were this hypocritical. You’re a core member of the Pratama family; you’re even the head of the Pratama family now. Yet for an issue like this, you’re still asking me? Are you joking?” Mr. Oswin’s words were as sharp as a knife.Zay Pratama w

    Secretary Jorell looked into the house hesitantly. His face looked scared.However, just as he was about to suggest that they wait outside, Felix had already stepped inside, causing him to panic."Sir," he called out as quietly as possible. "Sir.""Sir, wait a minute. Don't go in yet. Sir." Secretary Jorell continued to call out, waving his hands, trying to grab Felix's hand to stop him from entering.But Felix seemed deaf. He continued to walk slowly but steadily.As soon as his master's body disappeared behind the door, Secretary Jorell was overcome with panic.He wanted to follow, but he was afraid. But if he didn't go in immediately, what if something happened to his master?No one knew for sure what the situation was inside. After struggling with his fear, Secretary Jorell finally decided to enter. He took a deep breath and began to take steps with his body hunched over and his hands clenched in front of him, staying alert. Unfortunately, when he reached the door, it slamme

  • Ashern Village

    The village of Ashern is located on the outskirts of Neosvara. It is very far away. It takes at least five to six hours to get there without stopping.Felix didn't mind at all. However, Secretary Jorell, who was driving, repeatedly advised him to postpone the trip.The words of a cunning criminal like Ray Pratama should not be trusted.But for Felix, it was nothing more than an attempt to delay the journey.“Are you colluding with them?” Felix accused.His gaze on Secretary Jorell was unfamiliar, suspicious, and wary.Secretary Jorell instinctively looked at the rearview mirror and was startled by his gaze. “Sir.”“Instead of stalling, you’d better give me an explanation,” Felix continued. “Mr. Felix.” This moment and the string of words… Secretary Jorell felt his heart ache. He never imagined he’d end up in this situation. He swallowed to moisten his suddenly dry throat and looked ahead. “I’m sorry, sir.”The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became tense.Felix, with his arms c
