Chapter 150 - 149: Time To Move
After an intense workout session, he was absolutely beat, but still in a good mood.
Seeing him like this, Victor and Kaelan were a bit confused. Today’s routine had been brutal—way tougher than usual—so it didn’t make much sense why their boss looked so... content.
Still panting from the run, Victor exchanged a glance with Kaelan.
"Is it just me," he whispered, "or is Boss actually smiling?"
Kaelan shrugged. "Youth, maybe?"
Neither of them could figure it out, so they dropped it and followed him back without asking.
Back home, Rex took a cold shower, the icy water shocking his sore muscles awake and washing away the fatigue. Refreshed, he slipped into a clean set of casual home clothes—simple trouser and a loose T-shirt—then headed to the kitchen, rolling up his sleeves like he was about to perform a mission.
Today, he felt like treating himself.
He grabbed eggs, cherry tomatoes, a block of cheddar, fresh spinach, and some leftover mushrooms from the fridge.
He made a fluffy omelette—perfectly golden on the outside and packed with sautéed mushrooms, cheese, and a touch of chili flakes for a subtle kick. On the side, he toasted some sourdough bread, rubbed it with a bit of garlic, and drizzled it with olive oil.
To top it off, he brewed himself a proper cup of coffee, the rich aroma filling the kitchen as the machine hissed and steamed. No instant powder nonsense today—he ground the beans himself. He even threw in a few slices of apple with a drizzle of honey for a sweet finish.
