Steven has good body reflexes. That's certainly Arnold's knowledge. So he was not surprised when his shot was successfully avoided. But due to the loud noise, lure people who live a few meters from there to visit their location. There were some loud voices asking and also running footsteps.
Arnold looked at Steven who was now back on his feet with dangerous lightning. Teddy quickly shifted and stood in front of Arnold as he brandished his weapon back. Then, Sam and Bob also stood in rows. Makes Arnold snort cynically.
"We'll definitely meet again, I don't like to dirty my hands. Very lucky with those fools protecting you" said Arnold coldly.
Arnold's entourage left quickly before the citizens arrived. Leaving chaos there. Panicked dragons came running but in different directions. He seems afraid to follow Arnold back.
"We have to go, too" Teddy said.
The four of them got into their cars as people started arriving with tense and confused faces. Don't let them get attacked by questions and get out of there.
.
Arriving at the apartment they bought, Steven settles down on the sofa followed by his friends who sit watching him. As if waiting for an explanation of what they heard earlier.
"Steve ...."
Bobby stopped his speech because Steven was the one who gestured the hand to be quiet. Don't want to be disturbed. They looked at each other in silence. Can only wait.
"I'll get a drink" said Sam, and passing by to the refrigerator in the kitchen, he returned with four bottles in his hand.
Steven immediately sat down and grabbed a can of coca cola. Gulp it in half and put the can back on the table. He reached into his pocket to pick up a cell phone and contact someone.
"Team ... send me the entire CCTV footage of the headquarters back then within a week. Have you investigated it?"
Steven silently listened to his interlocutor, his sharp eyes staring straight at the wall behind Sam sitting before him.
"Is that? I'll check it out myself then."
Steven turned off the international phone and gave a faint grin.
"The team betrayed me" he murmured.
His sharp eyes looked at his friend one by one before leaning back with his hands in his folds and legs crossed.
"Who's Tim?" ask Teddy.
"Someone I used to pay for receiving some CCTV footage files illegally. He's a hacker. So far he's still loyal, but for this one he betrayed me."
"Where are you sure he's betrayed?" ask Bobby. Produces a slow flutter in the back of his head. The culprit was Teddy who was sitting next to him.
"Steven can tell more lies than anyone, you fool!"
"Then ... You told the team to what?" ask Sam again.
"Checking CCTV headquarters. All this time I had no interest in taking care of Arnold's sister's death. It's nobody and it's not important. But her brother's misunderstanding makes me sick."
"So.. who caused you to move here was not because of the death of his brother who was crazy about you? I think because of her, I mean I think you guys do have a little close relationship...."
Sam stopped his words as he caught Steven's eye telling him to stop.
"You know nothing interested me. I didn't even feel lust when I saw her naked in front of me. My decision was to leave because I was sick of life there. The death of Arnold's sister was certainly not desirable. Even though I don't like it, Arnold is still my friend. I appreciate it for helping me. Anyway ... My dark world is there with regards to them. They're my pawns."
"That means someone's trying to destroy you? by killing his sister and making you look like a doer?" ask Teddy.
"Well ... What exactly is your side job? you're not a member of the mafia, are you?" accuse Sam in an unpleasant tone.
As mischievous as his friends, Steven knew they were just home-grown children who always followed his directions and orders.
"I own some business, sometimes .. it involves the dark world because some of them try to intrude."
"Bis-business? Whoa ... Steve's! we're still in High School and what did you say? Some? That means not just one?" and Sam who had risen from his seat. Staring at Steven was in disbelief. While the other two were just staring at him gawking.
"I own some shares in various companies, so far only you know. You know I don't like a lot of attention. That's why I always use other people. Someone worked for me until I was done with this sickening education. Right now ... I'm building my own empire here, I'll make the center of my business empire here because this country is easier to control."
His friends stared at Steven with faces of overwhelming shock. They know Steven is a genius. They did not even doubt how genius a brain he possessed. But do not expect that their friend has built his future long ago. Where they still ask their parents like other normal children.
"Steve .." murmured Teddy in a choked voice.
"Because it's ..it's not that hard to get rid of Arnold, it's just. .. he's so annoying because I want a normal school life." Steven continued.
"Steve ..." It was Bobby's mutterings who couldn't speak anymore.
"You people! Be a good and useful child to me. You can be my business partner later." he continued without caring about his friends who were still in shock.
"Re-Mechanan what! We'll probably be your mother!" sam said innocently. Makes Steven chuckle softly.
"You are my friends, not my babes." Steven insisted before gulping the cola to the end.
"What did you do to him?" ask Teddy.
Seteven did not reply, he only displayed a frightening grin. Makes his friends shudder in horror.
"I'm hungry, Sam! You are good at cooking so cook something. I take a shower first" said Steven and got up. But the sound of his phone stopped his steps. Dad called.
"Yes, dad?"
"How long?"
Steven took a breath of it for a moment before muttering.
"Then be careful. Don't push yourself too much. My money is still enough no need to add any more to the account. Hm ... See you soon." The connection is closed and Steven puts his phone on the table.
"Your father has another match?" ask Teddy. Only Teddy was there because Sam and Bobby were in the kitchen.
"Yes, to Kuala Lumpur. Friendly matches he said."
"That means your house is empty? stay tomorrow?" teddy who retorted lazy.
"Come ... Your house is comfortable and I love the garden. We're barbeque there,"
"Guild," he said and passed to the bathroom.
The doorbell of the apartment rang a few minutes later, leaving Teddy wondering who had come. They never told anyone about his address. When the door opened, Teddy was surprised by several store clerks carrying dozens of paper bags. Some even seem to have trouble carrying several at once. Someone shouted among them and bowed respectfully.
"We came with Mr. Steven's order. He said all this stuff should be laid out in his room."
Teddy was obviously surprised and confused. But he let the men in and showed me Steven's private room in their apartment.
"You guys from a different store?" ask Teddy again. Sam, who also saw them from the kitchen, approached. Leaving Bobby yamg busy frying.
"We're from a different store but everything still belongs to Mr. Steven" replied the man who seemed to be the other's superior.
"Mr Steven owns several boutiques, as well as a company that I currently manage. Even though he never came." replied the grown man, there was a hint of protest in his voice.
"If you're done quickly return, if Mr. Steven sees you, then you can immediately fire! hurry up!" the man said to the whole staff.
Everyone rushed out of the room and out of the apartment except for the man who was now standing in front of the bathroom door. Prepare to welcome his master. Teddy and Sam sat on the side of the bed in confusion.
When Steven came out with his towel, the man immediately picked up a dry towel on the bed and gave it to Steven to dry his hair.
"Your clothes have been tidied up, sir, I have also prepared the clothes that you will wear" said the man.
Steven did not reply, he simply glanced at the clothes on the bed before staring at the three people there.
"Thank you Yuno .. and you guys can get out" he said flatly.
"good. I'm sorry Sir!" said the man called Yuno.
"Why haven't I seen him as your accomplice all this time?" ask Teddy.
"He was the one who ran my business here when I was in Singapore."
"Well .. this is crazy. I've been friends with you for 3 years but I don't know anything" Ted picked up and passed out with a sour face.
"Know rich why don't you hire a chef instead tell me to cook," murmured Sam who was also upset.
Steven paid no heed, he started wearing his clothes and tidying up his performance. He exited the room and found Yuno still faithfully waiting for him at the door.
"What are you doing?" asked Steven coldly. But it did not discourage the adoring look Yuno gave her.
"I've only heard your orders over the phone, I only once saw your face during a call before you moved here. You really have incredible charisma!"
Steven had no interest in hearing the ravings of worshipping Yuno. Once you see Steven already knew Yuno from the beginning very idolize him like an idol. What's more when he was given the answer and the power to regulate the company under his direct control. Makes Yuno feel honored as a right hand. Yuno knows Steven's identity and his football in the business world.
His name is no stranger among the largest shareholders. It's just that his figure isn't much to know because Steven hasn't opened up yet and only Yuno or his other right hand represents him.
"Go back to work, do not be negligent and make the company lose, send today's report immediately to my email."
"Okay Sir!" answer Yuno.
Steven left her to the dining room. His stomach has been asking for stuff since. Yuno also immediately left and returned to the company that she now led for a while.
So obviously, Steven's move has its own goals even though it looks like he ran away from the case that made him seem to be a suspect in the murder of Arnold's sister. One of his friends from the dark world.
