August came up with a plan. “By the way, have I told you guys that I’m hosting a class reunion party for our college friends? Lola, I am extending a special honors invitation to you. As my past crush who I still think of very dearly, I would like for you to show up as one of my VIP guests.” He had said those unnecessary descriptive words about what Lola meant to him to make Miles jealous, and yet, he still got no evident reaction of jealousy from his target. “Of course, you can bring your husband as your plus one.”This was another clear insult to Miles. Usually, the plus-one spots are reserved for outsiders who show up as an honorary guest of the VIP guest. He openly denies Miles an invitation to the class reunion he was a part of, only allowing him to come as baggage, which August finds reflective of what Miles is to Lola. After all, the man still assumed that Miles was a stay-at-home dad with no single penny to his name. Funny enough, Mark got invited even though he wasn’t part of

“Wait!” Manager Kim suddenly shut August up as he stared at Miles with a little frown. “Oh my goodness!” His eyes suddenly widened as a realization crossed his mind. “Mr. Miles, is that you?!”There was a shocking silence that traveled through the atmosphere surrounding the table. Mark, August, Abigail, and Lola were lost when they heard this man’s words. What was even more shocking was when Manager Kim, in his prestigious outfit, suddenly rushed forward and fell on his knees by Miles’s feet.“Mr. Miles, it’s really you! I am so sorry that it took this long to pay my proper respects! I really had no idea you would be here tonight, especially with Mr. Leonard.”“That’s enough, Manager Kim. You can get up now.” Miles only looked at the man briefly before he turned his gaze back on his beautiful wife, enamored by her great support tonight.Meanwhile, the rest at this table had their mouths wide open while staring at Miles and Manager Kim. They weren’t sure if what they had borne witness

Manager Kim was quite sad before when Miles refused his offers, but now, he felt his mood lighten up. “Very well, Mr. Miles, it’s a deal. I’ll be holding you up on this promise, okay?” After this, he wished everyone a good dinner, instructed one of the waiters to deliver a couple of the restaurant’s most expensive champagne and he left.August was furious as he watched Manager Kim walk away. The fact that this manager didn’t even end up attending to the matter he called him over here for was humiliating and infuriating at the same time.As soon as this was over, Mark and Abigail suddenly scooted their seats over to Miles’s side of the table.“Mr. Miles, you know, now that I think about it, I think a janitorial job at Jettex Industrial Limited is not befitting at all.” Mark had suddenly switched personality so fast that Lola was shocked.Abigail was also smiling at Miles. “Miles, I know we had a little bit of a grudge back in college, and we never resolved it. I’m happy to let you know

Fisher McCall has been getting worried for the past few days now. As the manager of Styleon Group Corporation, he couldn’t help but feel this way. Ever since this company was established, the best contract deal that has been bagged to date is the one with Eckre Empire Headquarters by Sales Director Lola. Ever since she did the impossible and got this deal with the most prominent company in the city, Styleon had begun depending on the huge corporation to rise beyond their imagination. It was because of this that Fisher now felt utterly apprehensive. This is because This is because Eckre Empire Headquarters and Styleon had just started the project of the contract deal that Lola bagged when Eckre Empire Headquarters suddenly announced to the city that it was basically going on an indefinite halt. The issue here wasn’t the almost $2 billion they got from Eckre Empire Headquarters, as that company had no intention of taking their money back. Still, it was important that the project proce

Lucas Jerald had returned to the Styleon Group Corporation building once again. At this point, the gatekeepers were starting to wonder what this man’s deal was. What or who exactly did he come looking for?As soon as Lucas Jerald got to the reception area of the building, he went straight to the receptionist who he had grown familiar with at this point due to his frequent visits.“Mr. Lucas, you’re back. I hope you’re having a much better day today.” The male receptionist smiled professionally at him. “Are you here to check if Miss Lola Blaine is available once again?”“Yes, please,” Lucas spoke with formality. Unfortunately for him, he had not been able to get a meeting with Lola. He wanted to meet this woman so he could beg her to help convince her husband to save The Jerald Shoppers from closing down due to bankruptcy. The awful situation was now affecting his family’s source of income and they know that it was all because of him. Lucas was certain that the kings of the underworld
