The morning meeting at Marcus Scott Company took an unexpected turn when Zane revealed shocking information. It was concrete evidence that Daniel had been manipulating financial data for his own personal gain.However, instead of admitting to his wrongdoing, Daniel's face twisted with defiance as he vehemently denied Zane's claims. He even went as far as to stand up from his chair, pointing an accusing finger at Zane."Nonsense!" he bellowed, his voice resonating through the room. "You're new here and I have more seniority. You clearly don't understand the complexities of this company like I do!"His words carried weight and many of the other directors murmured in agreement, seemingly in support of Daniel. "Zane Gardner, you're still new here. Your audacity is uncalled for," one of the directors cautioned.Another chimed in, offering advice to Zane, "Young man, your career is just beginning. It would be wise to learn from your seniors and avoid arrogance. It will only lead to trouble

Zane's day had been filled with exciting developments. He had experienced a significant increase in his cultivation level, thanks to an act of "face slapping" that the system deemed impressive. This accomplishment left him feeling elated and fulfilled, a tangible sign that his journey in cultivation was bearing fruit.Lost in contemplation, Zane was jolted back to reality by the piercing ring of his phone. He picked up the receiver and was greeted by the warm and professional voice of his secretary."Mr. Gardner, Ms. Claire is here and will be heading to your room," she informed him with a respectful yet familiar tone."Thank you," Zane replied, his curiosity piqued. He wondered what could have prompted Claire to visit him at his office today.Moments later, there was a soft knock on his door, and Claire entered with a cheerful smile. "Hi, Zane," she greeted him warmly."Hello, Claire. Please come in," Zane welcomed her, his tone friendly and inviting.Claire always managed to exude e

Zane's day at the office had been long and draining, the clock's hands finally granting him freedom as they struck six. With a weary sigh, he gathered his belongings and embarked on his journey home.At that very moment, Zane received a voice note from his assistant, Cecilia."Hey Boss, do you have dinner plans for tonight? Are you going to eat at home or out?" she asked.Zane tapped the reply button on his phone and responded, "I'll be having dinner at home, Cecil." He wanted to unwind after a long day at work."Alright, Boss, I'll make sure to prepare your favorite dish then," Cecilia replied. "Just make sure to drive safely, Boss."The sky was painted in hues of orange and purple as the sun began its descent, casting a serene glow over the city. Zane's mind wandered to the comfort of his couch and the warmth of a home-cooked meal, a stark contrast to the stark fluorescent lights and the incessant hum of computers that filled his workday.His reverie was abruptly shattered by a roar

In the wake of the stunning race at the arena, Felix Donn's anger boiled over. His face contorted with rage, he confronted Zane Gardner, accusing him of cheating."You couldn't have won! You must have cheated!" Felix shouted, his voice echoing through the arena, drawing the attention of everyone around.Zane, still catching his breath from the race, looked at Felix with a mixture of surprise and disappointment. "I won fair and square, Felix. There was no cheating," he replied calmly, trying to diffuse the tension.The crowd, already buzzing with excitement from the race, was taken aback by Felix's outburst. Whispers and murmurs rippled through the spectators, many of whom were shocked at Felix's accusation."Did he really cheat?" Some wondered aloud, while others defended Zane, "He raced honestly, it was clear to see!"But Felix, consumed by his fury, was not in a mood to listen. In a sudden move, driven by his anger, he lunged at Zane. The crowd gasped in shock. Felix, known among th

As David Brown's booming laughter and condescending remarks filled the room, Zane sat calmly in his chair, unfazed by the judgment and ridicule he had grown accustomed to receiving. He had faced similar treatment from others who knew of his past as the former son-in-law of the wealthy Amber family. And David was no exception."Ha, you may not know me personally," David sneered, a smirk playing on his lips. "But you're quite the talk among Mr. Amber's employees. The son-in-law who was just a hitchhiker! Ha ha ha."Zane remained silent, maintaining his composure despite David's rude remarks. It was clear that David's perception of him was heavily influenced by Amber's version of events. The condescending tone and derogatory comments made it clear that David held a deep-seated disdain for Zane.But David was not done yet. "I can't believe I'm actually meeting you here, after your divorce from Mrs. Nora Amber," he continued, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "What brings you here? Looking
