Karaoke Annihilation Over a Petty Fee Chapter 8
"All that would've achieved was allowing you to keep latching onto me for life," I declared. "You were already in college by then. There were plenty of ways you could've stopped your parents from forcing you to drop out. If you'd asked for help, countless people would've readily stepped in to help you."But what did you do? Not only did you not try to cut ties with your family, but you even turned your family background into a sob story that you can use to look for suckers who'd pity you because of it."I'm warning you—stay away from me. You were at the police station just now, so you know who I am. I'm not someone you can try to cling to. If you do, I'll seek legal avenues to reclaim the money I donated to you back in high school. Don't forget that we signed an agreement."At the time, I wasn't the one who wanted to sign an agreement about the money. After all, it was just tens of thousands of dollars, and the money didn't matter much to me. But Cindy had insisted on signing an agr

Despite everything, I remained quiet and didn't give any explanation. My silence convinced Owen that I was getting scared, so he sauntered up to me, cockier than ever."It's too late to beg me now, Alex! The truth is, no matter how good your grades are, once you're out in the real world, money is the only thing that matters. You've got no money, so you're destined to be beneath me for the rest of your life!"He even rudely patted me on the cheek and was about to continue his spiel when the door suddenly opened. Jacob came striding in, but his steady footsteps faltered the moment he saw my face."Mr. Lewis! What are you doing here?"Howard and Owen had both moved forward eagerly to greet Jacob, but he didn't even look at them. He came up to me with a warm smile and asked, "I heard that someone was brought in for causing trouble, Mr. Lewis. Were you affected as well?"After shaking my head in response, I glanced at Owen's ashen face before slowly explaining, "He hired me for the des

The police officers had to pause for a moment.After all, I was the one who'd reported Diamond Club for being involved in prostitution. How had it suddenly turned into an assault case?Still, they did their job and brought everyone back to the police station. On the way, Owen kept swearing at the top of his lungs that he'd get me thrown in prison—that he had a thousand ways to ruin my life."Officers, he's threatening me. I suspect he has ties with criminal organizations."After I said that, Owen finally regained a bit of sense and stopped yelling. Nevertheless, throughout the ride, he kept making calls, trying to pull strings.At the station, Owen refused to cooperate with the investigation."I'm not saying anything. I'm friends with the chief of police, you know. You'd better let me go right this minute! Also, this man, Alex Lewis, pissed me off, so I need you to keep him locked up for at least two weeks to teach him a lesson."Having greased the right palms beforehand, Owen m

I had some impression of Howard. Lately, he'd made several attempts to see me, saying he wanted to collaborate on some business project. However, I'd looked into him and had the feeling that all of his businesses operated in legal gray areas, so I hadn't agreed to a meeting with him.Howard stepped forward enthusiastically and grabbed my hand. "I've been trying to pay you a visit, Mr. Lewis, but you haven't been able to make the time. Who would've thought I'd run into you here today? Are you here for some fun?"I own this place. You know what? Everything's on me today. You can have as much fun as you want! In fact, we just got a new batch in, you know—all untouched. I'm sure you'll be satisfied!"Owen stared in shock as Howard repeatedly addressed me as "Mr. Lewis". Scowling, he yanked me aside before saying, "Mr. Atkins, you've got it wrong. He's just a gig driver. How could he be the Mr. Lewis you're talking about?"Don't let him fool you. He was my high school classmate, and he

Before I could even finish making the call, Owen had a conniption. His fleshy jowls quivered as he jabbed a finger at me and snarled, "Alex Lewis! What the hell are you saying? Tell the police right now that you just made a false report, or I'll make you regret it!"Still on the phone, I added, "Please come as soon as possible. Someone is threatening to harm me."Owen charged at me like a madman and knocked my phone out of my hand. Cindy also stepped forward to berate me."Apologize to Owen now, Alex! Don't you know that he's a businessman now? He knows many important people—including Mr. Lewis, the richest man in the city! You can't afford to offend Owen. If you do, no one in this city will dare to hire you. You'll be ruined for life!"Once again, the viewers couldn't resist sharing their thoughts in the comment section."LOL! Which Mr. Lewis is she talking about? It's definitely the one who's streaming right now.""Aren't they his former classmates? Why haven't they made the co

I easily dealt with the security guards with a few quick moves."What the heck? Is the streamer really a businessman? He seems more like an expert fighter to me. I didn't even get to see what he did. How did he manage to knock them all down already?""I thought he'd be useless in a fight, but it turns out he's basically a champ at it!""I think I'm in love. Wouldn't it be great to have kids with a man as strong as him? Our son would be a world-class fighter!"Thanks to the cutting-edge technology built into the smart glasses I wore, I could see the live stream comments.I said in a low voice, "Don't worry. I'll get back the money I earned, and I'll make him pay for scorning the poor like that."Someone in the chat questioned whether I was rich, too, and whether I'd really take their side."Practically every person in existence descended from a family of farmers. Money isn't the standard for judging a person's character," I replied before striding into the club.Aside from the s
