Roland and Stacey looked at each other as they saw Janine waiting outside of the villa's gate.
She was wearing sports attire and had her short hair tied ssily with a clip. Right at this mont, she was doing stretches, as if she was about to go for a long and tiring run.
"You're going for a run too?" Roland asked as he and Stacey walked towards her.
Janine smiled and nodded her head, continuing with her warm-up exercises.
This was the first ti that Roland had seen Janine wake up early to jog, so he was a little surprised by this developnt.
For soone who already decided to change his life-style, soone who can commit to doing daily exercise was always a plus point.
The workers of the villa were relatively free and had the freedom to do anything they wanted as long as they were already finished with their cores.
Roland has never been strict towards them, an action that earned the gratitude of the villa's workers.
Seeing Janine finally deciding to take a morning jog made him happy as both a friend and a 'boss'. He wouldn't want his workers to be solely focused on working so that they would neglect their basic health at all.
Roland nodded his head at Janine and said, "Co with us then. And by the way, it's better if warm-up this way..."
Janine's cheeks turned red as Roland proceeded to demonstrate to her the proper warm-up that he would always do. What she did earlier was just straight up twisting her arms here and there.
Stacey secretly smiled at their interaction as she proceeded to copy Roland's movents as well.
After a few minutes, they finally started to jog. However, because Stacey and Janine had never been athletic people, they were not able to hold for long as they decided to take a rest because they were already out of breath.
Roland on the other hand has a 'quota' to et, so he leaves the two of them behind as he goes for laps after laps around the villa.
"His stamina is terrifying," Janine muttered as she struggled to breath alongside Stacey.
Stacey smiled mysteriously and said, "Indeed."
A certain scene that was better left unsaid lingered on her mind as she looked at Roland's departing figure.
...
Almost twenty minutes later, the three of them returned to the villa with Janine and Stacey having sweat all over their bodies with Roland barely breaking a sweat from the 10 kiloter run he just went through.
Leveling up to 3 made it possible for him to endure a continuous 10 kiloter run with just barely breaking a sweat at the end of it. Roland has nothing to say about this either as he thought that it is what it is. He thought that he would need to do a lot of hardcore exercise if he truly wanted to let off so sweat.
After washing together with Stacey in the shower, and after another doing a light 'exercise' in the shower with Stacey, the two of them went to have breakfast together with Janine and the others.
The breakfast was ample to say the least. At this point, Gordon and the others were already more or less aware of Roland's appetite. Mr. Frank and Miss Stella would even remind him everyday to prepare a lot of food for Roland.
Gordon has beco so busy that he would wake up at dawn to start cooking everyone's breakfast. Fortunately, he has a lot of kitchen assistants so his work was more or less at the easier and lighter side compared to the gardeners. Even more so, Gordon loved his work so much that he doesn't care if he got worked to death or not.
The chicken recipe he received from Roland was so valuable that he didn't know how to pay for it. So, the least thing he could do was to cook for him everyday and satisfy his taste buds as repaynt.
At the sa ti, he knew that Roland was cook that was a level higher than him, and Gordon wanted to sort of gain his recognition through his cooking.
Anyways, after eating, Roland proceeded to send Stacey at the Sparkling Buds. His class was still a few hours away so he planned to take his ti and accompany Stacey at the Sparkling Buds. At the sa ti, he also wanted to make sure that everything was already alright.
The event yesterday was still fresh on everyone's mind. It was fortunate that Roland managed to resolve the situation in a short period of ti. If not, who knows how many losses the Sparkling Buds would ensure.
Two parked the Veloz in the Sparkling Buds parking space. He opened the door for Stacey as they walked inside the Sparkling Buds.
At this mont, one of the two guards was already there. Gustav was also inside already and he was the one who opened the store so early in the morning.
Everyone of them greeted Roland and Stacey with a smile as they proceeded to prepare for later.
At the sa mont, outside the Sparkling Buds, a lot of people had slowly queued up as well. The viral post was still a hot thing, and each of this new custors were looking alternatively at their phone and then to the Sparkling Buds, as if they were confirming sothing through it.
Roland obviously know that they were trying to confirm if they were on the right place so he smiled as he looked at their growing numbers.
At the sa ti, he could not help but think of that post that went viral yesterday. The promotion it brought to the Sparkling Buds was enormous. This was such a huge favor to the Sparkling Buds who were still starting.
After thinking about it, he decided to tell Stacey about this matter.
"No, problem. Actually, I have also thought of rewarding the publisher of that viral post after seeing such an unprecedented result. Don't worry about it, I'll handle it," she said with a confident smile to Roland.
It was a gratitude that they must pay, even if the post owner doesn't want it.
Knowing that Stacey would not fail him, Roland smiled at her as he went outside of her office.
Not long later, the store finally opened for the day. The line was already started to form a crowd, the two guards assisted each other as they guided the custors with a vibrant smile on their face.
Inside, the employees greeted the custors as well as they made their orders.
The new custors who had not experienced this kind of wam service before felt overwheld by the employees attitude towards them. They already felt satisfied even though they had still not eaten the well-known fried chicken of heaven yet.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Roland could finally feel a little at ease. Of course, the real tumor that was Bryan was still not dealt with, so there was still a little bit of unease inside him.
He could have dealt with Bryan in a ruthless way, but Roland wanted to avoid that kind of developnt for now. It may sound satisfying to ultimately get rid of this tumor, but he knew that the satisfaction would double if he was able to destroy him ntally first.
The mind was such a double-edge sword. It could bring you to greater height, but at the sa ti, it might also be the cause of your downfall one day.
Roland doesn't plan on letting Bryan off the hook that easily. And as for Anna, it goes without saying already that she was also an accomplice of Bryan.
After so ti, Roland bid farewell to Stacey and left with One to handle other important matters. The other guards were left behind to protect Stacey secretly.
The security company that was still waiting to be claid by him was just sitting around the corner. Now, he finally thought that it was the ti for him to claim this reward and proceed with his next course of action.
The security company was located downtown of Fore City. This was only a branch and the main headquarters was at Bridge City, another G-Grade City of Pearl Province.
The system inford him that the main branch manager had already made their way to Fore City's branch and was now on standby to et him in person to discuss the company's matters.
It just so happens that Roland was free in the morning so he decided to go there.
One drove the veloz for a for almost twenty minutes before they arrived at their destination.
It was a huge building that was nad as Tray Tower. Apparently, the security company was located on the third floor of this building.
Roland and One went inside and told the receptionist that they wanted to go to the Protect Life Security company. The receptionist was surprised but told them the way regardless.
Arriving at the designated floor, Roland and One walk for two minutes before they arrive at the largest room of the floor.
Above the door leading to the room was a plaque that read Protect Life Security Company.
One rang the doorbell and a mont later, a buff man opened the door with a gloomy expression and said, "Sorry, we don't entertain guests for the ti being."
