I Really Didn’t Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

After a few hours of hustle, the two of them walked out of No. 1 Fly

Headquarters side by side.

Looking back, the magnificent and vast buildings still stood in the setting sun.

The golden glow shone down, reflecting the shimmering waves of the adjacent

bay.

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Harrison Clark waved the paper in his hand – a contract made up of three

pages.

The contract was light, but it felt mysteriously heavy.

Harrison knew that for him, this opened the door to wealth, but that was about

1. But for Carrie Thomas, it represented her official entry into a journey that could lead her straight to the top of the music world.

“Do you think our song will be popular?”

Carrie asked casually while waiting for the car.

Harrison was puzzled, “Why are you worrying again when everything is

settled?”

Carrie shook her head, “It’s not that I’m worried, I just suddenly wanted to hear

your blind confidence.”

“Alright, trust me, it will definitely be a hit, okay?”

The two originally planned to stay in Abertawe for three days and two nights,

but they didn’t expect to finish their business the next day.

After checking out of the hotel and changing their plane tickets, they hurried

back to Oxfordshire late that night.

When Harrison arrived home, he finally felt at ease.

Every night in Abertawe, the price of £488 was really expensive. Even though

Harrison wasn’t as short on money now, he still felt anxious.

Poverty had made him afraid.

Early the next morning, Harrison got up early, washed, and went out for a

morning run.

The issue of “Boring” was settled, and they were only waiting for the official release next week to see the results.

His next focus was to finalize “Deep in the Night” and “A Dull Life” as soon as possible, so Carrie wouldn’t have the chance to write them herself.

In any case, he’d taken three days of forced sick leave from the company, and he still had two days left. Harrison decided to go into hiding and not go home.

He wanted to hide from Carrie, while pretending to go out for inspiration.

When he returned, he would present her with a new song, not giving her the chance to discuss things with him.

What if Carrie suddenly knocked on his door and said, “I’ve started writing

songs too, here’s a melody, have a listen.”

Wouldn’t that be a tragedy?

Since there was nowhere else to go, and it was not convenient to go home, he simply found an internet cafe near Weston Apartments, and got a private room.

For the next two days, apart from going to the hotel to sleep, he planned to

stay in the internet cafe.

He intended to continue studying the basics of songwriting, especially

electronic music production techniques.

There’s no harm in learning more skills, the more knowledge you have, the

better.

Unexpectedly, at nine o’clock that night, as Harrison got up to leave the private room to go to the hotel, he ran into some acquaintances passing by in the internet cafe corridor.

By the time he thought of hiding, it was already too late.

“Huh? Harrison, aren’t you on sick leave?”

A 27 or 28-year-old man wearing glasses raised an eyebrow, looking at him playfully, “You’re still thinking about coming to the internet cafe to play games even when you’re sick. You’re really not leaving the front line with a light injury.”

Harrison’s brow furrowed.

How unlucky, running into this guy.

This young man with glasses was called David Mitchell, a colleague of

Harrison’s at Chesterton Apartment.

The two of them had always been at odds, disliking each other.

David’s friends were also with him, all on his side.

If they met at the internet cafe, it would be hard to avoid being gossiped about

by David at work.

“None of your fucking business.”

Since they were already on bad terms, Harrison didn’t want to waste his breath, so he swore at him and brushed past without looking back.

After walking out the door, he shrugged and spat a couple of times on the ground next to him, “Bad luck.

Early the next morning, he was called to the company by his direct superior,

Linden Brown.

“Weren’t you on sick leave? Why did David Mitchell see you in the internet cafe

last night?”

Inside the High-tech Zone regional manager’s office, Mr. Brown’s face was

gloomy, and he spoke angrily.

It felt like the air pressure in the office had dropped.

David was Mr. Brown’s confidant, and the two of them were basically birds of a feather. Harrison was not at all surprised by his current predicament.

Having worked in the company for more than half a year, Harrison had already seen through these things.That was exactly why he hadn’t had a chance to get promoted so far.

With a boss like that pressing him down, nobody could rise up.

Harrison Clark wasn’t planning to hang himself on this tree foolishly.

Even before he started daydreaming, he had never stopped sending out resumes, hoping to change jobs.

He had been to many interviews, but the results weren’t great, and the employee benefits of Chesterton Apartment were too big, which made him hesitant to resign actively.

‘Til go to the internet cafe to see how to get well faster.

Usually, Harrison was a very honest person, but in this company, he could lie with a straight face and not even blink.

Even if this lie was ridiculous, and no normal person would believe it, it didn’t matter.

Linden Brown slapped the table, “Nonsense! You just went to play games! This isn’t sick leave, it’s truancy!”

Harrison spread his fingers, “Mr. Brown, I still have seven days of annual leave left this year, and I haven’t used a single one. Also, did you see me playing games? Did David Mitchell take any videos?”

He was determined not to admit it at all.

Linden Brown didn’t really have a way to deal with him.

“What about the cash rent you collected from the tenant the other day? Why

hasn’t it gone into the company account yet?”

Once one plan failed, another was applied. Linden Brown switched angles and attacked again.

Harrison wasn’t panicking.

The fifty thousand had been split between him and Carrie Thomas, with

Harrison still holding over thirty thousand in his bank account.

“Yesterday, before going to the internet cafe, I deposited the cash into my card at the ATM, and I transferred the money last night. It should arrive by noon today at the latest. According to the company’s policy, that’s not overdue, right?”

Harrison’s survival in such a treacherous workplace environment was not just luck.

As a fast-learning slick operator, Harrison would, of course, prepare thoroughly and meticulously.

Seeing that he couldn’t do much about it, Linden Brown waved his hand, “Alright, you can leave. I hope you take your job more seriously in the future. I’ve been watching you these past one or two months.”

Harrison retorted, “Has any tenant complained about me?”

His implication was, what were you nagging about if I hadn’t received any complaints?

Linden Brown:…

“Get out!”

Harrison shrugged, “I’m still on leave today, Mr. Brown. If there’s nothing else,

I’ll head back first.”

“You…”

Linden Brown’s finger hovered in midair, but Harrison had already walked

away.

He really didn’t give any face, he wouldn’t take a single verbal loss.

After a few minutes, David Mitchell sneaked into Linden Brown’s office.

“Boss, what did he say?”

Linden Brown glared at David Mitchell, “Next time, don’t bother me with your hearsay. If you really want to get him, it’s better to catch solid evidence. Get lost!”

David Mitchell looked wronged, “When I came across him, he was already shutting down. There was nothing I could do.”

Linden Brown nodded, “Never mind, I’ll think about how to deal with this scoundrel. I don’t believe I can’t manage him.”

As Harrison passed the company’s reception hall, someone called him from behind.

“Harrison, what did Fat Linden want with you in his office just now?

The person was Sophia Camp, a cute and smart-looking girl, who joined the company around the same time as Harrison.

Whether it was because of their similar age or hiring time, Sophia liked to greet Harrison.

Harrison seriously suspected that David Mitchell’s hatred towards him was mostly because of Sophia.

There was really nothing between the two of them, but the one who was jealous couldn’t be reasoned with.

As they say, beauty brings disaster, and the ancients never lied.

Harrison snorted, “Nothing much, just discussing the philosophy of life with

Fat Linden.”

-Hehe, Harrison, you’re so funny.” Sophia winked, “Are you free tonight? I really want to see ‘Iron Man 3,’ but I’m a little scared to go alone.”

Harrison shook his head decisively, “No, I have something to do.”

He really had something to do.

He was going to show Carrie Thomas ‘Deep in the Night’ and ‘A Dull Life’ tonight.

As his situation became increasingly difficult in the company, he didn’t know when he might have to pack up and leave.

It’s crucial to build oneself up quickly and become rich..
