Chapter 115 – The Aggressive Interviewers
*****At the same time, the contrast between Benny's current appearance and his usual shameless confidence only made the entire situation even more hilarious.Earlier, he had proudly introduced himself as a legendary ladies' man.Now he sat with his head lowered, his round face burning crimson, looking like a child who had accidentally set the classroom on fire and was hoping nobody would notice the smoke.For perhaps the first time since he had met Nicholas, Fatty Benny genuinely wished he could disappear.‘If the ground could kindly crack open right now,’ he silently begged, ‘I promise I'll never complain about earthquakes again.’Unfortunately, the floor showed absolutely no intention of cooperating.Meanwhile, the applicants had absolutely no intention of sparing him either.One joke followed another, and one burst of laughter followed the next.Eventually, several people's attention shifted from Benny toward Nicholas."Tsk... what an unlucky fellow," someone sighed dramatically w
Chapter 114 – Fatty Benny’s Embarrassment
*****Following the interviewer’s voice, the waiting area fell into absolute silence… so much so that if a single pin had slipped from someone's hand and struck the polished floor right now, the sound would have echoed throughout the entire room.Nobody spoke or reacted.If anything, every applicant sat frozen where they were, staring blankly for a long second.Then, almost as though they were sharing the exact same thought, several of them slowly turned to look at one another."What... just happened?" one applicant muttered uncertainly, finally breaking the suffocating silence."Why did... why did the interviewer suddenly sound so angry?" another whispered, still unable to understand what they had just heard.The question instantly spread through the room like wildfire. Almost instinctively, everyone's heads turned in perfect unison toward Nicholas.‘Did he offend them before?’‘Every other applicant was called in lazily... why did they suddenly sound furious when it was his turn?’‘
Chapter 1570 – The Silverware Vendor’s Horror II
*****Back then... long before the silverware vendor mastered elaborate scams and learned how to squeeze every last coin from frightened victims with practiced ease, she had been nothing more than an ordinary drifter with nowhere to call home, no stable source of income, and no future worth looking forward to.Life had beaten her down without mercy.She slept wherever she could find shelter from the rain, often going to bed with an empty stomach while her children cried themselves to sleep beside her.Every sunrise brought the same desperate question… would they eat today, or would hunger win again?She had survived by doing whatever work the marketplace threw at her.From dawn until dusk, she labored like a beast of burden.When trucks arrived loaded with merchandise, people called for her to unload them.When customers bought bulky goods, she was summoned to carry them.She scrubbed filthy stalls, swept rubbish from the walkways, hauled construction materials for workers renovating
Chapter 1569 – The Silverware Vendor’s Horror
*****The bustling marketplace that had been filled with bargaining voices, footsteps, laughter, and endless chatter only moments ago wasn’t merely silent again.It had become unnaturally still, so much so that it now resembled an abandoned street.The silence was so profound that if a blind person had wandered into the area, they might have genuinely believed there wasn't another soul within hundreds of meters.Everyone... the passersby, market patrons, nearby vendors, Grace, and even Little Lola herself, just stood rooted to the ground, their eyes fixed ahead in utter disbelief.For what felt like an eternity, not a single person managed to process what they had just witnessed.Just one heartbeat ago, the silverware stall had been standing perfectly intact.But now… it had been reduced to complete devastation; it looked as though a bulldozer had plowed straight through it without slowing down.Broken shelves lay scattered across the ground, twisted metal frames were bent into unnatu
Chapter 1568 – Xavier’s Unexpected Action
*****The Silverware Vendor remembered Madam Tush’s fate, the woman who had once been one of the most feared vendors in the marketplace and who had also made the catastrophic mistake of crossing Little Lola.Madam Tush had fallen, her influence had vanished, and her husband had been dismissed by the Myron family.Their entire household had gone from being untouchable to being practically disgraced overnight.And now she had unknowingly stepped into the exact same pit.Her stomach churned.“I…” She finally turned toward Xavier.The smugness that had previously made her look unbearable was nowhere to be found.Instead, she forced an awkward smile onto her face, but the expression was so bitter and unnatural that it looked more like she was trying to smile while swallowing poison.“I didn’t know it was you, sir,” she stammered. “And I… I didn’t know Little Lola was with you.”The change was so dramatic that it was almost comical.This was the same woman who had just been threatening a six
Chapter 1567 – An Exaggerated Story
*****For a long moment, several people remained completely lost in their thoughts, their gazes fixed on Little Lola as they struggled to reconcile the fragile, miserable child they remembered with the beautiful and well-dressed little girl currently resting safely in Grace’s arms.The more they thought about it, the more impossible the comparison seemed.Yet, little by little, realization began to creep across their faces, until one person after another looked as though they had just been struck by lightning.“How?” Several mouths fell open. “Wasn’t she always dirty, malnourished, and practically homeless?”“I remember her! She was so filthy that most parents wouldn’t even let her stand near their children.”“She was always covered in dust, and her clothes were practically falling apart.”“No one even wanted to associate with her.”The words spilled out in bewilderment as people tried to process what they were seeing, their memories colliding violently with the sight before them.It w
