Let Him Come
Henry froze in utter shock. He had been ordered to slap a paying customer? Was this serious?“What’s wrong? Don’t you want this job anymore?” Marvin sneered.“No, sir, that’s not it!” Henry said quickly, shaking his head. “I just… I was just surprised by what you asked me to do.”Marvin narrowed his eyes. “Surprised? About what? Was my order not clear enough?”Henry opened his mouth to speak, then hesitated. The look in Marvin’s eyes and the tone of his voice made it perfectly plain—he meant every word.The question now was: would Henry actually do it?He turned to the three of them, his gaze lingering longest on Longham. Longham glared back, furious that he was being stared at like that.“How dare you even think of laying a hand on me?! A nobody like you picking a fight with me?!” Longham roared, his eyes bulging.“Don’t listen to this idiot’s nonsense!” Charlotte snapped. “You don’t want to cross someone like Mr. Longham. He has connections everywhere in this city. You’ll regret it
Slap All Three Of Them!
Marvin glanced at Henry with no expression at all, lifting his chin slightly.“Do you think groveling like this will make me feel sorry for you? If you wanted to apologize, you should have done it back then, not now,” he said coldly.Henry froze stiff. Was it really too late? Was there no way to save himself?“I… I know I’m too late. Just as you said, I should have asked for your forgiveness back then. I was wrong. I made a terrible mistake. I was a fool to speak and act the way I did toward you. But please… give me a chance to make up for it. I will do anything you ask, sir.”Henry spoke in a pleading tone. Rachel frowned—she had never seen him look so pathetic. But she knew this was not her concern; he had made his choice, and now he had to face the consequences.Marvin’s expression remained unchanged, showing no interest in Henry’s pleas. But after thinking it through, he realized he wasn’t actually that angry anymore. Unlike Rachel, Henry had chosen the wrong side, and that had a
The New Owner
“People like me? Hahaha…”Marvin threw his head back and laughed openly. It was so loud that several guests turned to stare, looking annoyed.Rachel noticed this. As manager of The Salted Pearl and Mr. Freign’s trusted assistant, she knew she should have him removed at once. But for some reason, instinct told her to hold back.“I’ve asked you nicely to leave,” Henry warned, stepping closer until he was almost face-to-face with Marvin. “Don’t force me to be rude.”Marvin stopped laughing, though he still wore a faint smile. This square-jawed man looked down on him like he was nothing, yet he now held nearly a billion dollars in his name. It was absurd, almost funny.“I’m here to meet Mr. Freign, the owner. Stop blocking my way and let me see him,” Marvin said calmly.For the second time, both Rachel and Henry fell silent. This stranger had just called Mr. Freign by name. Very few people even knew that Mr. Freign owned The Salted Pearl. What was this about?Marvin pointed straight at Ra
You’ve Come To The Wrong Place
Marvin’s pupils widened instantly. He would receive five times the amount he invested—such an incredibly tempting reward. A faint smile spread across his face.The Salted Pearl was one of the most famous restaurants in Murndale. And according to the system, this seafood restaurant was owned by Mr. Freign, a tycoon with good connection to Calvin Banguard, another younger brother of Alex.Mr. Freign’s uncle, a senior, powerful police officer in the city, frequently held a secret meeting with Calvin Banguard in the VIP room, talking about how to ensure the Banguards remained beyond the reach of the law.Still not clear what Calvin and the Banguards had offered to the police officer for so many years. But one thing was certain: taking over The Salted Pearl meant disrupting the relationship between those three people.Once the takeover was complete, Marvin would try to distance the Murndale city police from the Banguards. Let’s say he succeeded, then this would be a heavy blow for the Bang
I'll Hunt You Down
Marvin turned his gaze toward Gary and let out a low chuckle. Behind the slick-haired man, Charlotte was struggling to keep up with his quick steps, already breathing slightly hard.“Where have you two been? It’s not even break time yet,” Longham said coldly, glaring sharply at Gary.“Ah, we just finished seeing a client out, sir. We came straight up as soon as we made sure they left happy,” Gary lied smoothly. “Right, Charlotte?”“That’s right, Mr. Longham. We took the initiative to escort them to keep our business relationship running smoothly,” Charlotte added quickly.Marvin chuckled again. He didn’t believe a word they said. From how relaxed and unhurried they had looked in the lobby a while ago, it was far more likely that even if they had met a client, they had spent the rest of the time chatting and smoking behind the building.Gary caught the mocking look in Marvin’s eyes. His eyes narrowed, and he pointed rudely at Marvin. “You’d better get out of here right now before secur
Thank You For Firing Me
The next day, around eleven o’clock, Marvin arrived at his old office.He stepped out of the taxi right at the lobby entrance. As he passed through the security check, one of the guards gave him a strange look.“Hey, isn’t he the one who just got fired? Yesterday Mr. Longham was shouting about it in front of everyone. Word is he suddenly sent in his resignation and hasn’t answered a single call from HR.”He spoke the moment Marvin walked past. His slightly shorter partner also turned to watch him, and they began whispering.But Marvin paid them no mind. He walked on with his head held high, completely unbothered by their gossip.Everything they said was true. HR had called him over and over, but he hadn’t picked up once. For him, the resignation letter he had sent yesterday was more than enough. He had come back today only to collect his things.“Hey, Marvin!”Someone called out as he waited for the elevator. He turned to see a slick-haired man glaring at him furiously, with a red-hai
