Tom was a thief. He committed crimes in New York but ended up serving his sentence in the Virgin Islands due to some blunder by his lawyer. According to the lawyer, it was a great deal, because once he was out, he could easily pocket some cash from the wealthy folks there. His sentence was ten years, and he had already served two. Unlike Tom, who took pride in bragging about his own crimes, Tommy simply stated his charge as murder and left it at that. He had no interest in discussing how he ended up…- 117.3 K • Completed
- Mo Zimu looked up and saw a towering man, easily over 1.9 meters tall, standing before him. His buzz-cut hair and sharp, chiseled features gave him the look of a Russian or perhaps a Northern European. His skin had a warm honey tone, and his exposed biceps were as solid as iron. His prominent brow ridge made his eyes appear deep-set. His broad double eyelids drooped slightly, giving him a naturally mocking expression. At first glance, he looked like trouble, though to women, he might have been…

- Just as Mo Zimu pulled out the chair, Rong Qing’s voice came from behind. "This is how you always are, isn’t it? Just like with Lin Lin. He lived for you and died for you, but when he disappeared, you didn’t even bother to ask. You let him be cut, piece by piece, as if he had never existed in your life." Mo Zimu lowered his head slightly. He took off his glasses, wiped the lenses gently with his slender index finger, and replied, "Lin Lin was different from you." Yes, Lin Lin was different. He…

Chapter 26: The Counterattack Begins Talking about giving a wedding gift—whether or not Shen Hechuan would believe it, even Judy herself didn’t believe it. This was so impulsive. A little scene like this, her boss could settle it with just a twitch of a finger. What was the point of her jumping in? All thanks to that damned wage slave spirit—she just couldn’t stand anyone speaking ill of her boss, her source of food and shelter. Now that things had come this far, she had no choice but…- 182.5 K • Completed
- In the end, there was not a single condition about the president that could change. The sliver of hope that had barely climbed into the positive dropped right back down to zero. Considering the life he’d lived and the environment around him, it was hard to imagine that a twenty-four-year-old just starting out in the world would seem appealing to someone like him. Hakyung let out a deep sigh at the uphill battle that was his love life and stood up. He kept the blanket Muheon had given him tightly…

- Kang Hakyung was acting strange. Well, he’d always been a little weird, but lately, he’d been really strange. Muheon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Hakyung’s back. Even though they ate breakfast together every morning, Hakyung hadn’t looked him in the eye once. And the mouth that used to chatter non-stop was now tightly shut. Muheon wondered if cooking breakfast had become a burden or if something had irritated him, but judging by the feast that was still laid out every morning, that didn’t…

- But unfortunately, Hakyung wasn’t in any state to calmly respond to his grandmother’s interest. Negative thoughts crowded his head, and it felt like tears might spill at any moment. In the end, he could only stammer and try to wrap up the call without giving any real answers. His grandmother, however, didn’t hang up until he promised to call every evening to check in. By the time the long call ended, Hakyung felt completely drained. First, he’d spent all his energy calming her down, then…

- “S-So, how much was it, then? Was it… more than my entire week’s salary?” He already knew the total cost of the clothes he’d bought was exactly double his pay—he’d done the math in his head. But Hakyung pretended not to know, trying to feel the president out. Muheon, after a moment of thoughtful silence, held up two fingers. “Exactly twice as much.” “Wait… what?” That couldn’t be right. Hakyung frowned, mentally calculating the price tags he’d seen at the shop. With…

- “M-Mr.Muheon didn’t punish you at all?” “No… I was so shocked I stood in the rain, and he just dried me off with a towel.” It was true. Although there’d been a minor misunderstanding with the man who thought he was a balding river dolphin, it hadn’t been anything serious. Still, maybe seeing the president like that had actually been a huge accident? Hakyung’s heart pounded with anxiety. Bu Geunrim seemed even more shocked than he was, clutching his chest and trying to catch his…

- Muheon didn’t respond to Hakyung’s comment, merely taking another look at the breakfast laid out before him. No matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t see any part of the side dishes that gleamed or sparkled. Then again, Kang Hakyung being weird wasn’t exactly a new development… Chalk it up to the unpredictable whims of a river dolphin, Muheon quietly picked up his chopsticks. The chopsticks, gripped between his long fingers, moved with flawless precision and elegance. Hakyung had learned…
