Chapter 29
All the crew members who were focused on their work were startled by Poppy's action, which she had never done before. She always respected her guests and treated them well, but the friendliness on her face disappeared as if an evil spirit possessed her."Sir, what do we do?" a cameraman whispered to Finley."Wait until Poppy gives the sign to end this broadcast," Finley replied casually, making the crew exchange confused looks.There's no way that money-grubber Finley would ruin this show for personal reasons. He would have to pay Mia a huge fine, and his credibility would drop because of today's incident.Mia stood from her seat along with Nolan, their faces turning cold. They did not know Poppy was the daughter of Aurora Channel's owner, so they dared to fight back."Didn't your parents teach you manners? I guess because you're from the middle class, you can't act polite," Mia criticized, aware the broadcast was still running. She had to show the viewers that she was not afraid to f

The last thing Bradley wanted was for the Overlord to be mad at him. He thought Halston called him to renew their partnership contract, which is why he looked so happy. All this time, Dominion Capital had never filed any complaints about any broadcasts Aurora aired.This was the first time Halston protested, and he sounded serious. Cold sweat ran down Bradley's temples as he answered, "L-Lord, forgive my stupid brain that can't understand your words. Did I do something to offend you?""Shouldn't you follow my orders first? Instead, you question them like I'm talking nonsense," Halston replied sharply."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to! Heidy, call Broadcast Operations and tell them to stop the interview with anyone right now!"Heidy frowned at her boss's order. "But Chairman, we'll have to compensate the star guest if the show ends suddenly.""You think I don't know that? Call the people in charge now!"Because Bradley looked so anxious and scared, Heidy realized this was not her boss's re
Chapter 27
Halston purposely visited the restaurant where Kyra worked to get closer to her. The customers did not come as much as usual because of the fight between Halston and the thugs. Those who ate here now probably had no choice since the prices were more affordable than elsewhere."Did you come here to pick up an order?" Kyra greeted Halston warmly as usual."I lost my job," Halston replied, quickly explaining when Kyra's smile faded. "Don't worry, because I can find a new job. Mia framed me to the company, which caused me to get fired."Worry was still on Kyra's face even though Halston looked fine. This man had saved her from a marriage she did not want, not to mention protecting her from those gang members. She wanted to repay his kindness even if it was just a little."That's not fair to you! While you're looking for a job, how about working here? This area often gets visited by thugs from different organizations, and the guard here just resigned."Halston's eyes lit up when he heard t
Chapter 26
Halston raised an eyebrow, examining the nine masked men before him. For someone who had faced many assassination attempts, they looked like amateurs. But it was clear they were mid-level members of one of the well-known underground organizations.On the black suits they wore was a skull brooch with two red fangs dripping blood. Halston knew which organization the symbol belonged to. "So, you're from the Red Syndicate. Did you come here to take revenge for your friends I beat to a pulp?" he said calmly, but it triggered the hitmen's anger.They felt insulted when they found out their target was the man once called the useless son-in-law of the Brown family. Victor explained that Halston was not an ordinary man since he managed to defeat Tom's team. Even so, it was hard for them to accept that because they were used to killing worthy targets."Let's just finish this bastard quickly," the first hitman who appeared pulled out a gun and aimed it at Halston. "Tom was too arrogant and stupi
Chapter 25
Halston instantly fell silent, recalling memories with his coworkers. They reminded him of himself when his family first cast him out. Everyone looked down on him, and only a few treated him like a human being.He took a deep breath, held it for a moment, then let it out slowly to calm the turmoil in his chest. His family had treated him like trash, so he would not go back unless his father came to beg him.Mia misunderstood Halston's expression, thinking he was upset about being fired. "Don't worry if you can't get a new job. I already told you, you could work as a servant for rich people," she said in a fake caring tone."You can work in one of my family's mansions if you want," Nolan added, holding back his laughter."I bet this loser will go crying to Mr. Rowan." Mia's eyes narrowed as a mocking grin spread across her face. "But I'm sure a respectable man like him won't help someone negligent at his job!"Halston ignored all the mockery and spoke to Adrian. "I was already planning
Chapter 24
Halston kept working as a food deliveryman because his job actually gave him some advantages. For example, he once delivered food to a penthouse where the children of wealthy families were having a party. He overheard one of them saying their parents were misusing investments from Dominion Capital, which was a major violation.Because of that, Halston was able to catch the culprit and get a huge compensation. People constantly insulted him or spoke without a filter around him, thinking he was just some lowlife who could not do anything."Bro, are you okay?" Colin, Halston's coworker, greeted him with concern. He had already heard about Halston's divorce because rumors were spreading that Mia would get married again.Everyone in town was happy to hear that a great woman like Mia had finally found a man who deserved her. But Colin disagreed, since he had seen how hard Halston had been working all this time.Halston smiled while patting Colin's shoulder. "If I were sick, I wouldn't come
