My beautiful boss novel Chapter 15

"Boss, we… failed the mission…" The man said trembling over the phone.

"I know you will make it. That's great. Wait... What did you say? You failed the mission? You did what?!" Alfred hadn't expected that they would fail the mission. His joy was replaced by rage within a second. When he jumped to his feet, all eyes in the room turned to him.

"We didn't expect him to be so vigilant. He doesn't seem poisoned at all! He even managed to jump from the third floor and escape!"

"You worthless piece of garbage!" Alfred boomed. "I paid good money for this mission, and you all pissed me over! Pray that I'll never see you again!"

He yelled, ending the conversation.

Alfred was so furious he didn't want to talk to any of his men.

'You're lucky this time, Peter Wang, but trust me that your happy days are running out soon.' Alfred swore as he stormed out of the hall.

--

Peter kept running until he was very far away from the small bathing place, and then he hailed a cab to get a ride home.

'I know you did this, Alfred. But you know I should thank you for keeping my life interesting.' Lost in his thoughts, Peter devised a plan to defeat Alfred.

Peter was new to the city. He didn't have friends yet, but he managed to make a few enemies. Alfred was one of them. Alfred was a very powerful man because of his connections to the local police. This was also why it was easy for Peter to trace the incident back to him.

Exhausted from the day's happenings, Peter entered his home and immediately fell into a deep slumber.

--

Peter hummed a tune as he rode an old electric vehicle to work, the next day. The skies were beautiful and sunny.

Around him, he saw people shifting past each other —some of them in a hurry, some rather lost in their own thoughts. Peter felt happy just seeing so much life around him. Plus, there were a lot of beautiful women too!

Suddenly, an accident occurred!

While in the middle of a fun tune in his head, Peter heard loud gasps from the surrounding crowd. A middle-aged woman passing in front of his vehicle suddenly fell to the ground!

'Fuck!

Is this a modus operandi for a robbery?'

Peter was very confused.

'You've got to be kidding me! I'm riding a used electric bicycle and my clothes are not expensive! I look like a loser! I don't look rich at all! Of all the people she'd try to rob, why me?' This woman must be crazy to try to rob Peter. He had nothing valuable on him!

Seeing that the woman hadn't done anything to validate his suspicions, Peter felt like there was something very, very wrong. Looking closer, Peter realized that she was actually in pain.

Peter's expression changed. 'She needs help!' He immediately got off his vehicle and started massaging her chest with his hands.

'Shit, she's having a heart attack!'

"You idiot! What are you doing? Let my mom go!"

Said a girl from behind him. In her panic, she threw him a kick

Which Peter caught before it could hit him. 'Wow, these are smooth, strong and white legs, ' he couldn't help observing. At the same time, he felt offended.

He was only trying to help, why did this girl immediately think he was up to no good? 'This is why a lot of people would rather just stand on the side than step up and help.'
