Miles glared at the average-height middle-aged man right behind his wife. “Why the heck would you bring your boss with you?”Lola, a beautiful young woman, stood before her husband with slight confusion. "Oh, my boss offered to drive me here after I requested a leave." She glanced at the man behind her with a warm smile. "I wouldn't have gotten here this fast without him."“No need to thank me, I’m just helping out the most lovely woman in my department.” Mr. Porsche shamelessly placed his hand on Lola’s waist while staring at Mile with a shrewd gaze. He clearly wanted to piss Miles off, and by the furious expression on Mile’s face, it had worked. Edmund Porsche is the Director of Styleon Group's Sales Department. Though this man portrayed a calm and jovial attitude to the public, he was actually a deeply conceited man who has coveted Lola ever since she joined the company under his guidance. Once Miles explained their daughter’s situation to his wife, he openly showed his disconten

While waiting for the male receptionist, Miles heard the voice of someone softly pleading with a female receptionist to let them see the CEO as they had a business proposal for him. He was shocked when he found that it was Fiona Blaine, his wife’s mother, doing this. Behind her is Lesley Blaine, Lola’s younger sister and Miles’ sister-in-law.There was also a man, around Lesley’s age, with them and he suddenly took over the conversation with that female receptionist. "You should know who I am. My name is Lucas Jerald. My father knows the important people at this company, so I'll advise you to let us in, or you might find yourself in deep trouble in the future."The female receptionist was completely unfazed by the man’s threat. “I’m sorry, but I can’t let any of you up that elevator unless you have a legit appointment with the CEO.”Miles soon understood what was going on. His mother-in-law and sister-in-law wanted to initiate a meeting with the CEO, but they couldn’t since they were

“Young Master, it is your duty as the best candidate in the family to carry on the empire’s legacy.” Butler Dorian replied immediately. “I know you left the family after the horrible death of your mother, but you need to understand that your father is not the culprit here. It is unfair for you to keep punishing him for this.”“It doesn’t matter however you put it, Dorian. My father is still somehow involved in the death of my mother, and for that, I don’t want anything to do with him.” Miles retorted heatedly.Dorian took in a deep breath. “Young Master Miles, I am in no position to tell you what to do.” He sat back down on the couch and he extended the inheritance contract file in his hands to the young man. “But you need to realize that your father is not the only one in the creek family. Refusing to do your rightful duty means you’re also throwing away decades of efforts and achievements.”Miles could only huff in silence as he turned his gaze away. He saw reason in what the old ma

Miles had arrived at Styleon Group in a sullen mood. He felt mentally drained as he couldn’t help but replay the horrible fight he had with his wife.After all he had gone through; he was done pretending to be something he wasn't. He was the farthest thing from a poverty-stricken man. He was the heir to one of the wealthiest empires in the world, and it was high time he acted like it. This was why had decided to quit his job.Once he arrived at the Styleon Group building, he was immediately confronted by his fellow security men. He could see the haughty expressions on their faces.Miles didn't pay any mind to this though. He had never been close with any of these workers anyway. "Hey, guys. I'd like to see the head of security."“Why are you asking us? If you want to see him, go look for him yourself.”“He must think we’re his errand boys or something.”The security officers began mocking Miles right in his face but Miles remained passive. He could tell that these guys weren’t going t

A woman spoke through the phone in an angry voice. "Are you deaf or something, General Manager?! The board of directors has just informed me that Eckre Empire has strictly demanded that Styleon Group Corporation be stripped of its value." There was a strong sense of impatience in this woman's voice. "Have you not seen that our stocks are plummeting? How dare you call yourself a capable general manager?"“I’m so sorry, Ma’am.” Fisher quickly sat down and furiously typed away at his laptop until he saw the chart and his body froze. “Ma’am, how is this possible?”“That was what I wondered as well. We’re just a mid-tier corporation that merely started a few years ago.” The woman allowed a moment of brooding silence. “But then I got tipped off that you had recently fired someone from your company, someone by the name……..”The woman didn’t get to finish before Fisher called out the name himself. “Miles Creek.” His body froze as an intense shiver ran down his spine. He recalled the special c
