<h4>Chapter 118: I''ll go to prison</h4>


    Ryder stepped out of the car and walked towards the club.


    The guards recognized him and allowed him entry without any trouble.


    Even though the guards didn’t say anything, another person was there that did. Mark went to Ryder as soon as he saw him.


    "You! What did you do to mest time? I don’t remember anything after I met you and people said that I was behaving like a child!" he said.


    "Me? What could I have done? I saw you behave strangely and thought that you were drunk. I left," Ryder said with a wry smile on his face.


    "Anyway, I’m here to meet your boss. I’ll talk to youter," he added as he walked towards Esmi’s room and left Mark behind.


    Mark stood there, confused as he watched Ryder’s back.


    Ryder knocked on the door of Esmi’s office.


    Esmi called out from the other side of the door.


    "Come in,"


    Ryder opened the door and entered.


    "It’s you. I must say, I like this surprise," Esmi smiled as she stood up.


    Ryder walked closer to her and sat on the table, right in front of her.


    "Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about something,"


    "You already know, you can ask me anything," Esmi told Ryder as she sat down as well.


    "Would you be interested in going out with me? Tomorrow is Sunday, and I wanted to take you out," Ryder informed her.


    "You mean you want me to go on a date with you? I ept," Esmi replied without even taking a second to think about it.


    "That’s great. I’ll send you the detailster," Ryder let out as he stood up and turned back to leave, but Esmi stopped him.


    "Hey, are you going to leave just like that? Not even going to kiss me?" Esmi called out.


    Ryder stopped as he turned back. He walked towards Esmi and bent forward as he gave her a light kiss.


    "See you tomorrow," he said, smiling. Ryder left her office.


    "See you tomorrow, darling," Esmi muttered as she got back to her work.


    Ryder left the Club. He was walking towards his car when he saw another car stop near his car.


    A man came out of the car, dressed in a luxurious ck coat. A woman also stepped out of the car as well.


    The man was the same person that had met Ryder when he was meeting Shu. He insulted Shu, and it resulted in him losing his position. Even to this day, he didn’t understand what he did wrong.


    "That bastard fatty. What does he have that I don’t? Why did the management demote me and give my position of General Manager of the Marketing Division to the fatty," Jason cursed as he stepped out of the Car.


    "Calm down, babe. I’m sure you will get your position back. There should be no one more suited for that position other than you," the Girlforted him.


    "I hope so," Jason muttered. He walked towards the club when he noticed Rydering towards him.


    "Hey, Ryder. You missed the Reunion again. I must tell you that you’re stupid. Never be friends with someone like a fatty. They eat jobs of deserving candidates like me," Jasonined.


    Ryder ignored him and walked towards his car.


    "You dare ignore me?! First, that fatty became the GM and acted all smug, and now you?! Don’t be arrogant! You’re nothing. I can bring you to ruins. You have a sister as well, right? If you don’t lose some of that arrogance, you both might regret it. Listen to my advice and control that arrogance of yours. It only suits people like me," Jason said to him.


    Ryder stopped in his tracks and looked back.


    "I warned youst time, didn’t I?" Ryder muttered as he walked towards him.


    Jason just stared at him when Ryder kicked him in the guts, making him drop down to his knees.


    "I’m not your servant, so I won’t listen to your insults. Stop thinking that you’re some big shit before you lose your life," Ryder told him as he looked down at him.


    "You hit me!" Jason eximed as he touched his stomach that was hurting like crazy.


    "Oh, right. I think I know people like you quite well, so let me teach you in a manner in which you’ll understand," Ryder let out as he brought his gun out and pointed towards Jason.


    As soon as the gun was pointed at him, Jason started sweating like crazy. His shivering became uncontroble as his face lost all his color.


    "Next time you see me, stay away from me. I don’t want you within 500-meter proximity of my family and me; otherwise, I’ll go to jail, and you’ll go to God," Ryder said to the man before he stood up.


    He looked towards the girl that was with Jason.


    "I know he’s rich, but you can find a better man," he told the girl before he walked away.


    Ryder entered his car and drove away.


    It was 2 in the afternoon when Ryder got back home. He walked back to his room.


    "Tomorrow’s Sunday; I canplete my mission for the date with Esmi. Then I canplete the second Quest by making that girl apologize when the university opens on Monday. It sucks to get so many Missions at the same time. There will be two more missions left after that, but I can at least take my time doing those," he muttered.


    "The only worrisome thing is finding someone from a cultivation family. I’ve searched every corner of the inte, but the only thing I found about the cultivation families is those fantasy stories," Ryder muttered as he threw the phone on the bed. He himselfid down on the bed as he closed his eyes.


    He didn’t do anything for the next hour and just rested in the silence of the room before he ultimately fell asleep.


    As he was sleeping, his mind was showing him a really nice dream where he was married to Alice. They even had a son, and Ryder taught him baseball.


    He woke up at the sound of knocking on the door.


    "Such a sweet dream," Ryder muttered as he opened his eyes. He sat up as he walked up to the door.


    Opening the door, he saw Alice standing outside.


    "Were you sleeping? The dinner is ready," Alice told him.


    "Right. Let’s have dinner," Ryder smiled as he stepped out of his room and closed the door behind him.


    On the dinner table, they ate in silence before Alice asked him a question.


    "Do you still use Hades in all your games?"


    "Yeah," Ryder said as he smiled wryly.
