“What?!” Raylon exclaimed, his voice rising in shock.Wasn’t Mario supposed to have failed to acquire the secret order? How could it suddenly be in Richard’s hands?“This secret order is here with me thanks to your nephew. I should be thanking him,” Richard said meaningfully before abruptly ending the call.Raylon furrowed his brow in confusion, the phone still pressed to his ear. “Nephew? Does this mean Elvan managed to get it? Or is Mario playing me? Wow! It looks like Elvan made a good impression on Cap Dwayne! That’s great!” Raylon muttered to himself.“I need to find a chance in a few days to officially introduce Elvan to Cap Dwayne!” Raylon decided with enthusiasm.Richard had just arrived on the eighteenth floor, while Aurora had already gotten there by taking the elevator, due to her high heels and being pressed for time. Her attempt to open the door was interrupted by voices coming from inside the room.“The meeting was supposed to start thirty minutes ago. Where’s our manage

It wasn’t Aurora’s idol, but her friend named Timone from when they were in middle school! Timone spoke up again after noticing Aurora’s displeased gaze, though she remained silent.“The day after tomorrow is Dharia’s birthday. She gave me an invitation yesterday. She said it’s going to be celebrated at the Underwater Hotel! I also heard that her boyfriend is a manager at Diamond Group! Now that’s what you call a real rich person!”“Thank goodness she’s free from that useless husband of hers! Otherwise, she’d probably be miserable for the rest of her life!”“Oh, by the way, Auro. Isn’t your birthday on the same day as hers? What has your boyfriend prepared for you?” Timone asked with a sarcastic tone.The man sitting behind the wheel cast a meaningful look at Aurora. Richard noticed this and only gave a brief glance at Timone’s boyfriend before smiling mockingly and said,“What have I prepared? Whatever she wants, I’ll give it to her! Including the whole world if she desires it! Are y

Timone panicked as she saw the security guard appearing to show respect to Richard. Meanwhile, Richard looked at Timone with a sneer and said to the guard, “Is there a thief entering the villa? Is someone who enters their own home called a thief?”“Sorry, Sir! You are the owner of this villa,” the guard replied nervously.“Miss, you should be careful with your words. You have made accusations indiscriminately,” said the guard to Timone.Timone was utterly stunned now. Her face immediately became a mess of helplessness. She no longer had any means to fight back or even argue. She stood frozen in place, overwhelmed by embarrassment.“This trash really owns this villa!” Timone thought to herself.Aurora sat on the sofa in the villa’s lobby, watching Timone’s distressed face through the open door.Aurora looked delighted at the scene and suddenly burst into laughter, rolling around on her sofa. “Hahahaha! This is so funny, it’s so funny!”“Richard, look! Timone’s usually arrogant face is

With her arms folded across her chest, Aurora said with utmost seriousness, “Who said that the cooperation between Diamond Group and Skyler Group was canceled?”“Their side canceled the visit here; doesn’t that mean the deal has failed?” retorted one of the employees with a disgusted expression.Aurora walked over to the folder she had thrown on the table and picked up a stack of documents from it. She then slapped the documents onto the face of the speaking employee, saying, “Look at this, you fool! Look at this!”What is this?The emotional employee was stunned, trying to recover from the shock of the slap.The next moment, his eyes were fixed on the lines of text in the document.[Cooperation Agreement][Party One: Skyler Group, Ligos city][Party Two: Diamond Group, Almolia city]The text seemed to pierce sharply into his heart. His eyes widened in disbelief. “How is this possible? How could this happen?”“Huh? It’s already signed? How is that possible?”“The person responsible fo

Grandma Nelsons was even more furious upon hearing Aurora’s rejection. “You fool! You have no right to refuse!”Carmen suddenly stood up and said to Aurora, “Aurora, Mr. Jazeel has a nice house and a luxury car. He’s also a manager at a big bank. He’s far better than Richard.”“Anyway, you’ll lose the bet tomorrow. An engagement now or later will be the same.”“Aurora, do you really want to live with that poor Richard, huh?” retorted the others.Aurora turned and glared at Carmen. “Shut your mouth! You’re the last person who has any right to control my life. I still remember how you treated me all these years. Now, it’s time for me to pay you back, bit by bit.”Hearing that, Carmen was shocked and her face flushed with anger.Aurora turned to Grandma and said, “Grandma, Richard is not trash, Richard is not poor. Just wait and see, he’s better than anyone here!”“It’s impossible for me to agree to marry Mr. Jazeel. Absolutely impossible. At first, I thought I was a Nelsons family membe
