The Wolf of Wall Street... System Chapter 2

Asher treated the dog very well.

Premium beef, foie gras, fish—everything was on the menu.

Not being a corporate slave and just being a dog was actually quite happy.

I planned to enjoy the good life for a while, finish the mission, and run.

But good times don't last.

Asher got kicked out of the family home by his brother.

The reason was that Blake lost something important and suspected Asher hid it.

Asher didn't say a word. He packed his bags and left.

Seriously?

Is this how the world treats depressed people?

The System said: [Of course. He has the 'Gloomy Male Lead Rise to Revenge' script. Later, a heroine will come to heal his emotional wounds.]

[Then he becomes the Wolf of Wall Street and takes back the family empire.]

I was excited: "So I have the 'Redemption Heroine' script?"

The System rolled its eyes at me: [Didn't you die from food poisoning after eating a sketchy discount meal at the start?]

Me: ...Right.

Asher moved into a rental. During the move, his psychosomatic symptoms flared up, and he couldn't stop shaking.

I trotted over with his medicine in my mouth.

He stared at me, tears streaming down his face.

"Baby, you should go. I can't afford you anymore."

"No more steak or bird's nest soup for you."

"No more soft, fragrant bed."

"Maybe I'm just a failure. No one will ever like me."

In that moment, my heart squeezed.

Asher really seemed to have only me in his life.

In that family, his father didn't care, and his mother didn't love him.

He could only confide in a dog—

Like how he was actually an illegitimate child, a half-brother to Blake.

Like how all the bullying he suffered after middle school was allowed by the family.

Like how if he didn't move out, the next one to die would definitely be him.
