Chased By My Demon CEO Chapter 279
Advertisement
Fernando immediately drove his car at high speed when he heard Frank's words that Viona was going to Cecilia's reception party, because he had not allowed Viona to leave. Viona had indeed asked him for permission when they were going to sleep last night, but he was still thinking about whether he would give permission to Viona or not.
Frank and Lucas, the personal driver of Fernando, who sat in the back seat, could only stay still while holding on to the seat belts attached to their bodies, because Fernando looked very serious and emotional at this time.
The trip, which usually took 1 hour 45 minutes via the toll road, only took one hour. Behind Fernando's car, two police cars were seen following, because Fernando was deemed to have crossed the average speed limit on the toll road. The two police cars repeatedly took turns voicing orders to pull over to Fernando, but Fernando did not heed what the policemen said, and instead he accelerated the car even more.
The policemen did not know that the car they were chasing was the car belonging to the city's number one man, Fernando Gray Willan, so they coordinated with the police manning the toll exit. As a result, currently there were four police cars waiting for Fernando to arrive at the exit without Fernando knowing.
"Sir, please slow down your car, look in front, there are police who ask us to stop," said Lucas slowly in panic.
"Fernando, are you deaf huh?!!! Do you want to kill us all? If we die, what are you going to do next?!!" shouted Frank loudly.
Shrieek!
Fernando slammed the brakes so hard that the tires sounded deafening when they stopped suddenly and emitted smoke from the tires that bumped the asphalt.
"Fernando, you bastard!!!!!" shouted Frank loudly.
"Sir, I'm not married yet …" Lucas screamed no less loudly than Frank's shout.
Luckily, Frank and Lucas had already worn their seat belts, so they remained in their position on the seats, not falling forward and hit the front seats. Only Fernando looked relaxed as if nothing had happened, even though he had just drifted by turning the car 360° perfectly. He then took off his seat belt and looked back where his younger brother and driver were still holding the seat belt hard.

"You two are cowards!!" said Fernando coldly, as he looked back where the two people behind him still looked shocked.
"You're really looking for trouble with me, bastard!!" screamed Frank irritably.
He was irritated by being humiliated like this by Fernando.
"When you want to do a drift like that, give us a signal, bastard!!" added Frank, annoyed.
"Hahaha, then it won't be a surprise," Fernando replied innocently without guilt.
"Fuck you!!" said Frank quickly.
Fernando smiled faintly seeing his brother was very angry. He then got out of his car when he heard the sound of the policemen asking him to get out through a loudspeaker.
"The police has no manners at all, apparently," murmured Fernando softly.
He then got out of his car quickly when he again heard the threat of the police who wanted to shoot his car tires if he did not get out of the car. When Fernando got out of the car with both hands raised in the air, the police who managed to recognize Fernando's figure immediately petrified. The one who held the speaker even dropped the device onto the asphalt without realizing it. Their face immediately changed when they saw who was the driver of the car they had been berating and threatening.
"Mr. Willan ..."
"Mr. Fernando Willan."
Bang
Bang
Several shields held by three policemen who had just gotten out of the car immediately fell, when they saw Fernando raising his hands in the air. Seeing what happened to the policemen made Fernando smile faintly. An stupid idea then crossed his mind. He planned to give a little lesson to the frightened policemen.
"Mr. Fernando, sorry, Sir, we did not know that you were driving the car," said a policeman with the rank of an officer, stuttered and tried to approach Fernando and asked Fernando to lower his hands back.
"Put your hands down, Sir," the policeman asked again, trying to reach Fernando's hand which was still above his head.
"How do I lower my hands, you guys were threatening to shoot me if I didn't raise my hands over my head like this," said Fernando again, trying to remind what the police had told him.

"T- that's not it, Sir, we don't mean that, Sir," the policeman replied back in a voice trembling with fear because Fernando didn't want to lower his hand down.
"Then what do you think I did wrong?" Fernando asked without feeling guilty.
The police officer immediately knelt in front of Fernando when he heard the words of the number one man in the city. Seeing the commander kneeling made the other policemen do the same. They were all afraid that Fernando was angry, because if that happened there was a chance that they could be fired from the police and they would automatically lose their jobs.
"I'm sorry, Sir, we're wrong, Sir .... please forgive us, Sir," said the police officer who knelt in front of Fernando in a trembling voice.
Fernando then lowered his hands when he saw all the police kneeling at him, he felt bad seeing the officers kneeling in front of him.
"Get up, don't be like this. You are a police officer," Fernando said softly while touching the shoulder of the policeman who knelt and asked him to get up.
"But it was my fault, Sir ..."
"Get up or I change my mind!!!" Fernando snapped, cutting the policeman's words in a rising voice.
Hearing Fernando's words, the police officer immediately got up from the asphalt and stood in front of Fernando with a perfect attitude. He then asked his men to stand up as well on Fernando's orders. Soon the whole policemen gathered in front of Fernando with their heads lowered.
"What's your name?" Fernando asked quietly to the police officer who was standing there beside him.
"My name is Keanu, Sir," the police officer replied quickly.
"Keanu, nice name. Okay Keanu, I will not talk at length now. What you did earlier was correct, but it would be better if you talk carefully without having to threaten like that. If the car driver panics because he hears your threats and then he doesn't concentrate in driving his car, it will endanger other drivers, right? Therefore, change the way you handle drivers who exceed the speed limit like that, not by threatening like that," Fernando said in a rising voice, staring one by one at the faces of the young policemen in front of him.
"And ask the reason that person exceeded the speeding limit. At high speed like that, is there an emergency or not? If he is a good driver and not a criminal," Fernando slowly added to his previous words.
"Yes, Sir, it's our mistake. We promise to change the way we work," replied Keanu.
"Come on, don't create a bad image of the police in the society. You protect them so it would be better if you could be closer to the community without making them afraid of you. Distinguish fear and respect, you must gain the trust of the public because you are the protectors of the society," Fernando said again.
"Do you all understand?" Fernando asked the ten policemen, who had been silent.
"Yes, Sir, understand, Sir!!" All the policemen answered in unison.
Fernando smiled at the words of all the policemen. Behind him, Frank and Lucas just smiled dryly seeing what Fernando was doing.
"Too arrogant!!" said Frank softly.
"He is Fernando Gray Willan, Sir, nothing can be against him. The only person who is willing to resign from the election when he is guaranteed to win," said Lucas, praising Fernando.
"Shut up, Lucas, you don't need to remind me that. I already know," Frank said fiercely in irritation.
Lucas just laughed silently at Frank's words. He knew that his employer's younger brother actually admired his brother, but he was too proud to admit the greatness of Fernando Gray Willan.
"Sir, if I may know, what makes you drive your car at high speed like earlier, Sir?" asked Keanu slowly.
Thump!
Fernando, who was relaxed, suddenly remembered his reason for driving at high speed earlier. He immediately grabbed Keanu's shoulder hard.
"My wife, Keanu ... my wife at home!!" shouted Fernando in a rising voice.

Cybernetic Dragon
Idea Seven, or Inter Dimensional Explorer Automaton Unit-7, has had a bit of an accident. Hijacking the egg of a dragon rather than its intended target of a bird egg, it isn't fully in control of its host brain. Rather the two, dragon and cybernetic AI interface, must work together to survive in a hostile world of magic, dungeons, beasts and adventurers. The AI must deal with being a machine from a world of science trying to carry out its mission of exploration, while the dragon, Rex, must deal with being a cyborg living with symbiotic nanotech that sets him apart from other dragons. What adventures await them? Author Note: I tagged this story GameLit because it contains concepts like levels, classes, and dungeon/beast cores. But, it isn't tagged LitRPG because no one has status screens, other than occasionally Idea Seven who likes to organize data into blue boxes. It isn't a natural function of the world to display level ups or skill ups with an announcer voice. I mention this to set expectations, because otherwise I feel like LitRPG fans might be disappointed by my lack of LitRPG elements while others might be turned off thinking I have a lot of LitRPG elements. I think that if you approach the story with an open mind you will appreciate the gradual way in which the main character learns and expands his understanding of how the world works, but the game mechanics aren't meant to take center stage to the actual story.

First earthquakes, then bolts fell from the sky, changing and twisting the things they hit. Steven, stuck in the throes of apathy, had sought shelter out of boredom more than anything else. But when some fellow survivors are separated and trapped by a rampaging moose, an emotion breaks through his apathy. He can’t turn away. Some people say it’s everyone for themselves at the end of the world. Steven disagreed ~<>~<>~ Will update every Sunday and Tuesday at 9:00am, unless the chapter is beefy, then we'll just have one that week.

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace. Note to Reader: I am not of an Asian background, but this work is heavily influenced by Eastern stories and concepts. In saying that, it is an INFLUENCE only. Keep in mind that this is a fantasy work, and any butchering of names, concepts or cultural objects/places/subjects are not meant in any way to offend. With that in mind, Happy Reading! - Jelim
