All Chapters of My Target Invades My Everyday Life: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I took a bite of toast and replied while munching, "There's nothing for us to discuss.""Must you turn everything into an ugly spectacle?" Jenny raised her voice, making the nearby housekeeper shrink backward. "I'm the one who built up the company, but you're trying to take it away from me just like that?""You built up the company?" I repeated. After setting down the piece of toast, I wiped my mouth with a napkin and chuckled. "It's my name, not yours, that's listed as the founder of Nova Tech. You're just a highly paid employee. Why is it an issue for your boss to fire you?""Why, you!" Jenny shot to her feet, the chair scraping sharply against the floor.Aaron quickly grabbed her arm before looking at me reproachfully. "Why are you being so unreasonable, Nathan? Jenny has poured her heart and soul into the company. You can't treat her like this.""And in what capacity are you lecturing me, Mr. Fuller?" I lifted my cup of coffee and took a sip, my gaze deliberately landing on th

But when she inadvertently glanced up and saw my face, her phone clattered onto the front desk. She shot to her feet, her jaw dropped.Startled, the other young woman got up, and the two stood there, gawking at me.I ignored them and strode toward the elevator reserved for senior executives. Everyone in the lobby fell into a restrained silence after I passed, only to erupt into urgent whispers moments later.It'd been so long since I last came to the company, long enough that everyone had assumed the company now belonged to Jenny.When I arrived at the chairman's office on the top floor, Liam had already parked the car and was standing there, waiting for me. He was one of the employees my father had left to me, and loyalty never wavered."Mr. Burke, everyone has arrived and is waiting in Conference Room 3," he said, handing me a document folder. "This is a summary of all the company's investments over the past two years. A few of the fund allocations are unaccounted for."I took

It was a unanimous vote.Jenny stared blankly at the sea of raised hands, all strength draining from her body. She slumped limply into Aaron's arms."N-No… T-This can't be happening…" she mumbled, her gaze hollow. "This is my company… It's mine…"I stood up and straightened my collar, saying, "See them out, Mr. Chase. Also, inform security that from this moment onward, Jenny Green, Aaron Fuller, and all of their lackeys are not allowed to set foot into Nova Tower."Without sparing another glance at the pair who'd just fallen from grace, I marched right out of the conference room.Back in my office, I poured myself a glass of whiskey. The golden liquid swirled in the glass, reflecting my relaxed expression.My phone buzzed with a message from Hugo. All he sent was a meme of someone sitting on the throne with a scornful expression.I took a gulp of whiskey, the searing liquid burning as it went down my throat, warming up my chest. I relished this sensation. It made me feel clear-h

Aaron collapsed onto the floor, his face as pale as a sheet.Ignoring him, I said to the frozen housekeeper, "Throw out Mr. Fuller and all of his belongings. From now on, he's not allowed to enter this house again."As if given a lifeline, the housekeeper immediately summoned two security guards and had them haul out the dazed Aaron."Nathan! You can't do this to me! Jenny! Help me, Jenny!" His cries faded with distance until the closing door cut them off completely.Ryan and I were the only ones left in the living room now. He stood frozen, his small figure trembling. I couldn't tell whether it was out of fear or anger.I walked over and crouched down to meet him at eye level. "Now, do you still think he's a nice man?"Ryan bit his lip and refused to speak, his tears streaming down his cheeks. I reached out to wipe them, but he flinched away, his eyes wide with terror.My hand froze midair. His reaction made sense. To him, I was probably even scarier than a murderer.I withdre

"Pretty much." I went to the minibar in the room and poured myself some whiskey. "She was hugging me and sobbing her heart out, saying she'd made a mistake. She begged me not to get a divorce."Following three seconds of silence, Hugo burst into riotous laughter."Oh, my god. I'm going to need a full minute to laugh about this. She's all maxed out on regret, huh? Does she plan on spending the rest of her life in regret, then? "Well, what happened next? Did you feel completely moved and decide to forgive her? Are you going to spend the rest of your life with your rash-infested wife now?""I basically told her to get lost." I took a swig of whiskey. The spicy burn relaxed my nerves."Good for you!" Now that Hugo was done laughing, he finally got back on track. "But seriously, after what you did, she must've had an emotional breakdown. "My system almost had a panic attack, saying that if the target's emotional state is unstable, it would affect the power to supply the journey home
