Smith turned his cold gaze toward Zaha, who immediately understood what he wanted and reached for the gun hidden beneath his jacket. “Give me the gun,” Smith ordered, his voice carrying a dangerous calmness as the guards tightened their grip on Scott. At the same time, they continued trying to force the cigarette toward Scott’s mouth, determined to humiliate him before finishing what they had started.Zaha struggled harder to hold Scott down, but Scott suddenly jerked his head forward with such force that Zaha lost his balance for a moment.Zaha nostrils began bleeding, yet instead of showing weakness, he spat directly into Smith’s face, leaving the room silent for a brief second. Smith slowly wiped his face with the back of his hand, his expression twisting with fury as he took the gun from Zaha.“You should have learned your lesson by now,” Smith growled, raising the weapon toward Scott. Scott stared at the barrel for a moment before a familiar mission screen suddenly appeared befo

Scott's pupils contracted. Without any warning, four men charged at him simultaneously.With barely any space to retreat, Scott grabbed the meal tray from the table and swung it forward with all his strength.BANG!The metal tray smashed directly into the first man's face. The man stumbled backward, blood immediately trickling from his nose.Scott didn't give him time to recover. He stepped forward and drove his fist into the man's stomach.THUD!The attacker doubled over, gasping for air. Scott grabbed the back of his uniform and slammed his head against the wall.The man collapsed onto the floor, completely dazed. Scott barely had time to turn before another attacker swung a powerful punch toward his face.Scott ducked beneath it. The fist passed over his head, he immediately drove his elbow into the man's ribs.CRACK!The attacker staggered sideways. Scott followed with a knee straight into his abdomen, lifting him slightly off the ground before sending him crashing into the dining

Scott stood up without wasting much time.“Thank you, Richard. If you get the rest of the information, don't hesitate to reach out to me.”“Alright, Scott,” Richard muttered as he picked up his bag. The two of them then made their way out of the café.Outside the café, Spike immediately noticed them approaching and grabbed the car door, holding it open for Scott.“Richard, please input your account number in the space below,” Scott said, handing him his phone.At first, Richard was surprised, but he had no reason to complain. He simply obeyed and entered his account number. A moment later, a notification sound rang from his phone.Ding!Richard immediately checked his notification. His eyes widened when he saw the amount.“Five hundred dollars?” he exclaimed. “Thank you so much, Scott!”“That’s nothing. It’s not a huge amount. Use it for the night,” Scott replied with a smile.He then turned toward Spike and signaled for him to start the car. The day had not been a waste. He had alrea

Her face was drained of color. A few employees covered their mouths, while someone at the back let out a short laugh. The command and embarrassment were on another level, especially standing before the camera while being recorded.Her eyes became glassy. She lowered her head, unable to withstand the eyes surrounding her. A few people laughed quietly, while others grumbled, shocked by the sudden humiliation.The same hall where she had once stood confidently now felt like the loneliest place in the world. Without much delay, she stepped out of the room and headed toward the company's entrance. She walked so fast, overwhelmed by unbearable shame, that within a minute, no one could see her anymore.After that, Scott, still standing in front of the employees, adjusted his necktie and ordered everyone to get back to work. He then turned to Mr. Danny and Rutherford. “Both of you can still work here if you want, and Rhoda is the head of the managerial board.”They were stunned by his speech.

With roughly eight minutes already spent, Mr. Rutherford slammed his palm against the table.“What is still holding the transaction, Mr. Bruce?” His voice echoed across the room. “If you can't complete it within the next two minutes, the deal is canceled. And after that, I will never want to see you here again.”Scott's fingers tightened around his phone. The screen seemed to blur before his eyes. His arms suddenly felt heavier than they had moments ago, and a thin layer of sweat formed across his forehead.The entire room was silent watching.Even Lucy, who had been watching him with a faint smile, remained silent. Scott stared at his phone.Scott still standing in doubt started murmuring to himself.‘Could the system have been corrupted?. Was everything I've seen until now fake?. He lowered his head and whispered.’“Hey, System.”[Hey, Host!]Scott's eyes widened.The familiar blue interface appeared before him.[Balance: $1,800,000,000][Body: 50][Mind: 50][Super Point: 10][Skil

The buyout payment and the allowances will be used to replace the debt she owed the company”Mr. Danny smiled at his colleague “Wow that's a nice ide. Moreover her stake is is the smallest”Scott who had been seated there for long refuse to make himself known then chip in still.“How much is the buyout clause?”Everyone of them look towards Scott who had just voiced out.“My buyout payment is $2,000.00. for terminating my contracting here. You people must give me else I'm not leaving” she said loud and ruthlessBefore everyone's eyes, Rhoda brought out a book containing debtors name and Lucy's name was found. “She is owing the company $3,000.00” Rhoda muttered.Mr. Danny and Rutherford looked at Rohda. “How did she get all this money?”“Boss she threatened to sack Miss J
