Riches in Disguise

Well, that was just it nowadays. People would take advantage of the kind ones. Instead of being grateful, they would exploit, bully, and look down on them.

But if one were irritable and fierce, many people wouldn't find them annoying. Instead, they would fear them and treat them with courtesy.noveldrama

Still, people shouldn't live just for those kinds of people. They must find like- minded individuals, make friends with them, and stand firm on their principles.

I had been keeping my identity hidden from Benjamin, Liam, Matthew, and Felicia for their sake. As for Louis, Zack, and Joshua, they could do whatever they wanted.

After saying goodbye to the boss, I took all the documents and returned to the bar. As soon as I entered, the woman from earlier blocked me again.

"You brat, why are you back? Didn't I tell you that you're not welcome here? Get out of here! Just seeing you brings bad luck!"

I chuckled. "I'm not welcome here? Then who is? You?"

She pointed at me furiously. "You must be insane. This place would welcome a dog before it welcomes you. Get out, now!"

I felt that she had a poor attitude. Anyone would think she owned the place. I pulled out a newly printed copy of the transfer agreement and held it up to her face.

"Open your damn eyes and see for yourself who is welcome here."

She froze for a moment and snatched the document to scrutinize it. Her face instantly turned pale with fright.

At that moment, the boss walked in. When she saw the woman, she said immediately, "Hazel, call everyone into the office right now. I'll introduce you to the new boss."

As she spoke, she patted me on the shoulder. This gesture irritated me because it seemed like a gang leader patting a subordinate's shoulder.

The woman stared at me, completely dumbfounded. "The new boss? Him?"

The boss smiled. "Yes, him. Surprising, isn't it? Don't let his young age fool you. He's mature. You had better behave yourselves and listen to him.

"I will stay here for a month to help him get familiar with all the processes and work. After a month, William will manage this place fully."

The document fell to the ground, and Hazel was utterly stunned. I bent down to pick up the document before flashing her a cold smile. Then, I walked into the office with the boss.

The handover went smoothly,

except for Hazel. After everyone else left, she clung to my leg, desperately begging me not to fire her. But

couldn't tolerate a supervisor who abused their authority and had no respect for employees.

Besides, I noticed that none of the other employees spoke up on her behalf, which showed that she must have offended many people and didn't have a good rapport with them What was the point of keeping someone like that around? With a cold expression, I dismissed her.

The boss folded her arms, watching as Hazel left in tears. Then, she turned to me

and gave me a thumbs-up.

"To be honest, I've wanted to fire her

for a long time. But whenever

something happens, she kneels, cries, and begs. It's such a

headache. I didn't think someone as

young as you had such decisiveness

and authority. You're really

promising, kid."

I was momentarily speechless. "You don't look that much older than me. Why are

you talking like an elder?"

The owner simply laughed in response.
