Andrius rolled his eyes at the girl. He said, “You can take pictures of me, but keep them to yourself. Don’t simply go around and announce my identity.” “Huh?” Rainbow froze for a few seconds before she stared at Andrius confusedly with her crystal-clear eyes. “Why?” “I don’t want other people finding out my identity.” “Oh…” Rainbow understood the importance of secrecy. After all, the Wolf King’s name was the only thing known about him; there was almost no other personal information circulating around the world. She could not just expose her cousin-in-law’s identity just because she wanted to brag. If she admired the Wolf King, she had to respect him. “Aye, aye, sir!” Rainbow saluted Andrius as if she was a soldier and said, “I will not leak a single word about your identity to anyone. I will only keep the pictures to myself!” Andrius laughed. She sure was an interesting one. After giving her affirmation, Rainbow thought of something and continued to ask, “Andrius, do
Having the Wolf King as a boyfriend was probably the coolest thing! After Andrius came out of the building, he scanned one of the rental electric bikes and headed to Noir’s place. “Andy, here. I have two pints ready.” Noir prepared the beer as soon as he arrived. A while later, Noir’s phone buzzed. He had a glance and said, “Andy, Simon-Tooke’s chairman, Dean Mitchell, is here in Sumeria. He’s probably here about what happened the other day. “He knows that Celestial Enterprise had military support, yet he still set foot in the city. I think there’s more than meets the eye.” Andrius was not concerned. He had a gulp of beer and sighed satisfyingly before he said, “Whatever comes our way, we will deal with it. I don’t care how persistent or vengeful he is, as long as he’s here to give us money, there’s no point in not accepting it.” Noir giggled mischievously. In the past, he enjoyed killing their enemies back in the Western Frontline. However, now that he had moved into t
On the next day, due to excessive drinking last night, Andrius woke up a little later than usual. He went to work, but when he walked into Team Five’s office, he spotted a sour look on everyone’s faces. “What’s wrong? Where’s Fatty Frank?” Andrius simply asked, wondering what could have made them sulk. “He’s in the meeting room. Team Five is doomed now!” Angel sighed and said sadly, “This morning, Simon-Tooke launched a fell-fledged sanction on our company. “Our clients and suppliers who got the news bailed on us when they got the news. All the executives believed it was Team Five’s fault for beating Mr. Longman up the other day. That’s why he must have done this to get back to us. They are coming for the company, and…” A hint of anger flashed on Angel’s expression. Andrius asked with furrowed brows, “And what?” “And the executives want all of us in Team Five to apologize to Simon-Tooke in person.” Angel clenched her teeth and said, “If we can’t get Mr. Longman to forgive u
“If we can get an investment from Celestial Enterprise, New Moon Corporation’s cash flow will be able to be self-sustainable, and it will also help the company to expand further.” It was Andrius’ original plan. Through a collaboration between the two companies, he would share a portion of the assets he got from the Millers and the Crestfalls with New Moon Corporation. “How naive!” “Cheap!” “You’re dreaming!” “Are you out of your mind?” As soon as Andrius’ words subsided, all the executives teased and mocked him. Harman looked at Andrius with contempt, as if he were an idiot. "Do you think Celestial Enterprise is a charity? Why would they share with us what they have already gained? Do you really think that you own Celestial Enterprise? That you can do whatever you want?" He was right. Andrius grinned. He looked at the executives with a ridiculing gaze and said, “If I can get the investment, what are you guys going to do about it?” “Impossible!” “There’s no way.”
Andrius brought Fatty Frank to an eatery beside the road. Beer was served on the table, and they started an early grilled meat session. Andrius gobbled up the food, but Fatty Frank was not in the mood. “Go on, have some.” Andrius put a piece of innards on his plate. “I thought your kidneys are weak. This grilled kidney here is the bomb. You are what you eat, so it’s definitely going to strengthen your kidneys.” “I…” Fatty Frank put the pig kidney aside and said helplessly, “Boss, how do you have the appetite to eat now? If we don’t get the investment, Team Five is doomed! Even though the salary is nothing to me, I don’t want to drag every one of our comrades down. I feel bad. I don’t feel like eating.”He put his fork down and looked away. Despite being the leader of the Trust Fund Kids, Fatty Frank was loyal and companionable. Andrius laughed. He continued to chew on his grilled meat and consoled Fatty Frank, "Don't worry. Since when have I failed? We will get the investm
It was time to clock off at New Moon Corporation when Harman and the other executives were summoned to the meeting room. “Ms. Crestfall called us to the meeting room at this hour. What happened?” “I have no idea.” “What the hell? It’s time to go home. Why can’t she wait until tomorrow? How annoying.” “That’s what women are.” The executives were complaining about the last-minute meeting, voicing out their displeasure. “I heard our company got an investment,” someone said but it made everyone else laugh. “Hahaha!” “Come on, Jack! You really believe that?” “It’s only one day, and those two little pricks got the investment?” “Yeah. What about the appointment, the meeting, the negotiation and all the details, the contract-signing? The entire process will take weeks, if not a month.” “Just you wait. There’s no way they can get the investment.” The executives were not bothered at all as they strongly believed Andrius and Fatty Frank would fail the assignment. Clack!
Luna looked at the numbers on the contract. She also spotted Sonia’s signature and the official stamp of Celestial Enterprise. Her jaw dropped. In just a few hours, Fatty Frank and Andrius got an investment from Celestial Enterprise! A billion-dollar investment! It was unbelievable! It felt like a dream. “It’s fake! The contract is fake!” Harman refused to believe it. He looked at Andrius and Fatty Frank suspiciously and then scoffed, “These two must have falsified the contract! Or else, why would Celestial Enterprise have agreed to invest in our company after your visit?” The other executives soon resonated with his claims. “Yeah. The contract is fake!” “Celestial Enterprise isn’t their father’s company, so why would they invest in our company?” “Yeah. It must be false!” “They forged a contract?! New Moon Corporation has no place for people like you!” The executives came up with all kinds of excuses to criticize Andrius and Fatty Frank. “Ms. Crestfall…” It wa
Harman and the others continued. “You are not the one who did it, why must we hold on to the deal?” “You should be grateful that we didn’t dissolve Team Five!” “Yeah. Deduct our salary? Know your place!” The group of executives was furious when Andrius mentioned the salary deduction, and some of them even gave Andrius the side eye. “Enough!” Luna stopped the executives with a serious look. She said coldly, “All of you are the seniors of the company. I expect all of you to keep your promises. You lost, and that’s a fact. I will tell Finance to deduct your salary accordingly, and no one is to mention dissolving Team Five!” She had run the company for a long time now. She still had the power to contain the executives with her words whenever she got angry. The executives were silenced, and no one dared to continue the topic. Half a year’s salary was not too much to be considered significant, but not that minute that they could ignore it either. Fortunately, there was stil
