What kind of person?

The tension in the room was thick enough to cut with a knife when suddenly, a calm voice broke through the chaos.

"I'll repay the money on Elena's behalf."

Every head turned. Karvel stood in the doorway, his torn clothes and bruised face making him look like a warrior returning from battle.

The table erupted in laughter so loud it could wake the dead.

"Oh my God!" Sarah wheezed, clutching her stomach. "Did that trash just say he'd pay millions?"

"What's he going to use, bottle caps?" Richard cackled. "Or maybe he'll bark at the bank until they give him a loan!"

Patricia shot to her feet, her face red with rage. "Karvel! What are you doing here? You're embarrassing us even more than usual!"

"Sit down and stop making a fool of yourself," Robert hissed. "Haven't you caused enough trouble for one day?"

Even Elena looked mortified. "Karvel, please don't—"

"I'm serious," Karvel said quietly, his eyes focused only on his wife. "I'll handle the money. But right now, I'm here for something more important."

Margaret laughed sharply. "More important? What could possibly be more important than millions of dollars, you delusional flea?"

"Today is our wedding anniversary," Karvel announced, stepping closer to Elena.

 "Since she's not welcome here, I'll be taking my wife somewhere she'll be treated with respect."

"Where?" Vincent sneered. 

"To a soup kitHoward? That's about all your budget can handle, street rat!"

"I've reserved the top-floor restaurant," Karvel said calmly.

 "We'll be celebrating there."

The silence that followed was deafening.

 Then the laughter exploded like a dam bursting.

"THE TOP FLOOR?" Sarah shrieked, tears streaming down her face.

 "He thinks he can access the penthouse level!"

"Someone call animal control!" Richard howled. "This rabid dog has completely lost touch with reality!"

"The top floor costs more per night than you'll make in ten lifetimes, you pathetic worm!" Margaret spat.

Vincent shook his head in mock sympathy.

 "Even my family's wealth couldn't secure the penthouse level. And you think a broke janitor like you could manage it?"

Elena's face burned with shame. "Karvel, please stop. You're just making things worse."

"He's so delusional!" Patricia snarled. "Completely detached from reality!"

"I'm telling the truth," Karvel insisted, his voice steady despite the ridicule raining down on him.

SLAP!

Patricia's hand cracked across his face like a whip. "Get out! Get out before you humiliate us any further! "

Karvel's cheek stung, but he didn't move, for Elena's sake.

"I know it sounds impossible," he said quietly, "but I'm not lying."

"Impossible?" Richard laughed so hard he started choking.

 "It's not impossible, it's insane! You have a better chance of growing wings and flying!"

Just as the mockery reached its crescendo, rapid footsteps echoed from the hallway.

 A man in an expensive suit burst through the doors, his face flushed and panicked.

"Ladies and gentlemen," the hotel manager announced breathlessly, "I sincerely apologize for the interruption, but we need to relocate this event to the second floor immediately."

The laughter died instantly.

"Excuse me?" Margaret's voice was dangerously low.

"A VIP guest has arrived," the manager explained, wringing his hands

. "The entire upper portion of the building needs to be cleared for their use."

Vincent stood up aggressively.

 "Do you know who I am? My family has a significant influence in this city! You can't just—"

"Sir, with all due respect, this is non-negotiable," the manager cut him off firmly. "Please gather your belongings. Security will escort you to your new location."

"This is outrageous!" Richard bellowed. "We paid for the third floor!"

"And you'll receive a full refund plus compensation," the manager replied. "But you must move. Now."

As bewildered guests began filing out, Elena's family noticed something extraordinary happening around them.

 Men in thousand-dollar suits were descending from the upper floors, their faces grim but compliant.

"Is that... is that Senator Williams?" Patricia whispered, pointing at a distinguished older man being escorted down.

"And the Morrison family heir, the first-tier family in the city," Robert gasped.

 "I heard he never leaves his penthouse suite without a security detail!"

"Look at them all," Sarah breathed in amazement. 

"These are people who usually snap their fingers and make problems disappear. But they're all just... leaving?"

Margaret watched in stunned silence as some of the most powerful people in the city quietly evacuated the upper floors like obedient sheep.

"What kind of person," she whispered, "could make all of them move without a single complaint?"

    Patricia pulled the door open and saw her daughter standing outside. The evening sun had already started to fade, leaving a golden glow in the sky. Patricia’s focus was only on her daughter.Her face hardened the moment she saw her.“Why do you look so unkept?” Patricia asked, her tone sharp. Her eyes moved over Liza’s wrinkled dress, her scattered hair, and her pale face. She stepped aside, allowing her daughter to come in, but her voice followed like a whip. “Where are you coming from at this time of the day?”Liza walked past her quietly. Her steps were slow, and her shoulders looked tired, like she had been carrying the weight of the world. She dropped her handbag on the chair and turned, her eyes heavy with exhaustion.“Mother, please,” she said softly. “I need to rest.” She turned toward the hallway, eager to escape to her room.But Patricia would not let her leave so easily. She folded her arms and stood in the way.“What’s your problem? How can you be this useless?” Patricia

    Liza’s hands were shaking as she stood in the middle of the room. Her chest rose and fell, her breath sharp and uneven. She could feel her anger boiling, and it was too much to hold inside.“Do you think I will believe you,” she shouted, her voice breaking, “after you slept with my friends?”Her eyes burned with tears, but she refused to let them fall. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palm as she stepped closer to him.“Why did you do that?” she demanded, her words trembling. “Tell me, why, Israellight, why?” Her voice grew louder, almost a scream, raw with pain. She grabbed the collar of his shirt with both hands and shook him, as though shaking him would make him tell the truth.Israellight raised his hands, his face pale. His lips trembled as he tried to form words.“I swear,” he said quickly, “she only came here to see you… and then she left. That’s all. Nothing happened.”His voice was soft, shaky, filled with excuses. But Liza could hear the lie in it. She knew

    Karvel stood close to his grandfather, his eyes bright with excitement.“You don’t have to bother yourself, Grandfather. We can handle this. Look at me now—I’m fine. Nothing is wrong with me anymore,” he said quickly, trying to sound strong.Master folded his arms and gave Karvel a hard stare. His old eyes carried both love and strictness.“Do you know what, Karvel? You just relax and watch me do what I know best,” he said, his voice calm but firm.Karvel sighed and shook his head. “Grandfather, please… it’s just a minor issue. You don’t need to make it a big deal.”Master’s brows shot up, and he leaned forward, his voice sharper now.“Minor issue? Did you just call a kidnapping case a minor issue? Do you even understand what you are saying? Someone took you away, Karvel! Someone dared to lay hands on my grandson. You think that’s something small? No! The people who had the courage to kidnap you are still out there, watching, waiting, and planning. Don’t you understand? You are the on

    Master’s deep laugh echoed in the station. His voice carried a calm authority, the kind that made people stop and listen.“You know I don’t walk alone,” he said, raising his hand slightly. “Look around. There are guards everywhere.”The guards, who had been standing silently along the walls, shifted their weight. Their eyes scanned the room, sharp and watchful. Even without weapons in their hands, their presence alone was enough to remind anyone that Master was not a man to be approached carelessly.Morrison forced a smile. He had faced Master many times, but today felt different. There was something in Master’s tone, something colder, something heavier.“Master,” Morrison said, bowing his head slightly. “Tell me, what brings you here today?”Master’s gaze narrowed. “The thing you and Karvel refused to look into.” His voice dropped low, almost like a growl. “I have been working on it myself. I wanted to know who dared to kidnap my grandson—Karvel.”The words struck Morrison like a bla

    “Run after him! Get him!”The command echoed through the narrow street like thunder. Dozens of men sprang into action, chasing the figure darting ahead of them. Their heavy boots pounded against the ground, the sound mixing with sharp breaths and urgent shouts. The man they were chasing didn’t look back—he just ran, desperate, like an animal caught in a trap.He pushed through the crowd, bumping into people, knocking over baskets from market stalls. A woman screamed as her apples scattered across the road. The man didn’t stop. His shirt was torn, his face was sweaty, and fear burned in his eyes.“Don’t let him escape! get him” one of the policemen shouted. But the man was fast—too fast. He cut corners sharply, slipping into side paths, weaving around carts and children playing. The men chasing him kept shouting, but every turn he took bought him a few more steps of freedom.He reached a wider street, and his legs pumped harder. His chest rose and fell like a drum, his breaths sharp a
