Prologue

'My name is Abel Bernard, I'm 40 years old, and I've been working for 20 years as a delivery agent in a real estate company. I have a law degree. Like all men in my age, I have a family consisting of my wife Betta, my mother Diana who suffers from paralysis and cannot walk or speak, and my three-year-old daughter Léa.'

"Abel! Come here and help me carry this chair, my back hurts!"

"That's Rafa, my senior, and the exact definition of a 'jerk'. Every day, he forces me to move furniture even though he knows it's not my job. I'm a driver, not a mover, but I can't argue because he helped me get this position due to his connections. It was back when I was starving, trying to feed my mother and wife at home. Little did I know, he offered me this job not out of generosity but to turn me into his personal slave."

"Okay, Rafa! I'm coming," I replied.

"Hey Abel, it's been 20 years since you started working with me, but you've never invited me for a drink or a meal. So tonight, you're obliged to invite me to your place for dinner. I won't accept refusal, do you hear me, Abel?"

'What a bastard! Are you my wife for me to invite you for a meal or a drink? You filthy idiot!' I screamed within myself.

"Of course, senpai! It's an honor for me to invite you to my humble abode, hahaha," I said to ease the tension.

"Very well! Hahahahaha! I didn't expect anything less from you, my dear friend Abel! I'm sure your wife cooks well."

'If you weren't the HR director's cousin, I would rip your heart out and make you eat it.' murmured Abel deep within.

"Oh, damn! What am I saying again? Is it because of stress and fatigue? But I'm starting to have dark thoughts," Abel reassured himself.

But poor Abel didn't know that this dinner would shake all his beliefs.
