Like your father
"Alvina," Ariana called softly as she reached for Alvina's hand. "Lower your tone. He's our father, you can't yell at him like that. Besides, isn't it good that your achievements are public knowledge? Your name could become more famous. This is a good opportunity.""A good opportunity? Maybe it would be if it happened to you, but I'm different. I don't like this kind of thing at all. Sis, you know very well how I am. Since the beginning of the company, I would rather be recognised, not acknowledged," Alvina retorted, pulling her hand roughly."Isn't that the same thing? This way, people will know your greatness and acknowledge it. In a trivial matter like this that clearly doesn't harm you at all, you shouldn't be angry. Even if you don't want to say thank you, at least there's no need to blame Father," replied Ariana, who was still full of tenderness.Her figure like this made her aura as the eldest sister who would become the leader of the family look even more outstanding.There wa

Sincere?
Ethan turned his gaze to Zinnia, who ran a little towards him. The girl wearing a pink floral dress with a large bow in her hair immediately hugged Ethan tightly while crying dramatically. "We've just been reunited after so long apart, but you're already leaving me for good. Do you hate me so much that you don't want to see me anymore?""As long as you want to stay, I'm willing to keep my distance from you and won't bother you. One meter, how about that? Is that enough? Come back, Ethan. Don't leave me. If you leave, then who will be my hero?"Hazel stared at Zinnia in shock while butler Eamon was already looking down with laughter.Ethan, uncomfortable with Zinnia's attitude, pushed her forcefully but without violence. "If you're crazy, go to a mental hospital, not bother me!"Instead of feeling angry at his words, Zinnia looked at him with brightly rounded eyes. Both her hands cupped Ethan's face for her to look at carefully. "Ethan? This is real, right? You're still alive?""Do you

Evidence
A few days later, Zenith Corp released an announcement that the news that was being circulated due to Daran's live streaming was a lie. This kind of defamation will be given a warning according to the law, as well as the people who have spread bad comments to Ethan.In addition, Ethan also revealed about his relationship with Daran, which was severed a long time ago and is now never in contact again. Everything that happened and what he said had absolutely nothing to do with him.If something similar still happens, Zenith Corp will take strict action against anyone, without exception.Meanwhile, Ethan is at the police station to meet the head of the Leader who kidnapped Mr Leif and his wife a few days ago. In the company of Hazel, of course."Liar!" Once in the special guest room, the Leader immediately ran to the glass divider and stared at Ethan with angry, bulging eyes. "You're a liar! Damn bastard, I'll kill you right now!""Go ahead if you want to stay here forever," Ethan said,

We Are Family
"Hazel, you're going back to the office with them," Ethan said after reaching the car he was in."Where are you going?" asked Hazel."I still have to take care of something that's been pending for some time. This car, I'll take it." Then Ethan told the driver to get down to him. "Give me the keys.""Wait, sir. Do you want to take it yourself?" Hazel swiftly held back the driver's hand that was about to hand over the keys he was holding. "You've just recovered from a stab wound, you can't drive the vehicle yourself.""But this is my business. I can't let anyone else come with me," Ethan, who still looked calm, said."Why?"Instantly, Ethan's gaze became flat. It wasn't that he was annoyed with Hazel for continuing to ask, but he didn't like that what he was doing was a personal matter that he felt should be covered.About Delilah and Daran, he didn't want anyone else to know how they treated him because it was very embarrassing."Never mind. You just obey. I can take care of myself." W

Signature
A check for 2,000,000 USD lay in the center of the table.Delilah and Daran, who initially looked confused, were wide-eyed with surprise as they bent down to see the paper more clearly."I have counted all the money I used, including the food you gave me, without missing anything. Even though it doesn't make me happy, I feel somewhat grateful that you accepted my presence at that time, so consider the money to repay my gratitude," Ethan explained.Delilah's hands became trembling as she grabbed the paper and lifted it carefully. "Two million. It's indeed two million dollars. I didn't see it wrong.""The total of all the expenses you gave me was very little, not even half of that money. You're not going to pretend you forgot, right?" Ethan replied sarcastically."How could I forget it when I gave it to you myself?" Delilah muttered with her eyes, not leaving the paper in her hand.But a moment later, she fell silent with a smile that slowly disappeared.She looked at Ethan slowly and b

Because We're In The Same Boat
However, instead of heading to Zenith Corp, Ethan made a U-turn towards Pasaraya.On his way to his room, Hazel called with concern. "Sir, do you really not need a bodyguard?""No, I don't. I'm on other business and probably won't be back there. You can take care of it, right? If there's something really important and you can't take care of it anymore, you can call me," Ethan replied without breaking his stride."I understand. However, may I know your current whereabouts?""I'm fine. You don't have to worry," Ethan said with a faint smile. "If there's nothing more to talk about, I'll close it.""Yes, sir, good afternoon. Please take care of yourself."Ethan only replied with a brief nod before disconnecting the call. While putting his cell phone in his coat pocket, he turned his gaze around and found the Velvet Vault bustling with shoppers.His expression suddenly turned sour as Mrs. Bernita's annoyed face suddenly came to mind.If that woman saw the current situation in the Velvet Va

Having No Answer
"What is this?" The Great Mistress Celeste, relaxing in her reading room while playing with her cell phone, instantly straightened up with wide-eyed surprise.She zoomed in on the photo she had just received and couldn't contain her shock. "Bernita? Why is she there? And why is the store so crowded? What's really going on?""Isla, come here!" she shouted and called out to the maid assigned to be with her.But the middle-aged woman did not come, making Great Mistress Celeste turn her head towards the door angrily. "Isla! Didn't you hear me? If you don't come on the count of three, I'll throw you into the village! Isla!""Argh! Where is she exactly?" Then, Great Mistress Celeste stood up and walked hurriedly out of the reading room. "Just watch after I find you, I'll beat your legs to a pulp!"Just as she was about to turn towards the living room, Isla's figure suddenly appeared with a panicked face, making Great Mistress Celeste startled and almost toppled over."Damn it! Are you going

Powers of the President Director
"What?" Mrs. Bernita stared at Joshua in disbelief, then she pushed him roughly. "Hey, who do you think you are? Does a lowly manager like you deserve to speak to me in that tone? Look at me and correct your speech before I throw you out!""Madam, today our store is very busy. But since you were looking for me, I left all the work for a while. I'm sorry if I've displeased you," Joshua said calmly and politely.The people around who had been talking about Mrs. Bernita instantly raised their voices, saying she was being arbitrary and bullying others who clearly had no fault."Are you going to continue like that, barking like dogs? This is my problem with the manager, and none of you understand this, so stop blabbing!" After scolding the people, Mrs. Bernita looked back at Joshua. "Explain to me about what happened!""What do you mean, Madam?""Don't act stupid in front of me! Explain everything, or I'll fire you!" shouted Mrs. Bernita.Joshua instantly smiled faintly. "Madam, you seem t

Be In One Place
"What?" Mr. Celeste, Mrs. Bernita, and Ariana were all shocked beyond belief upon hearing this.They looked at each other in confusion before Mrs. Bernita shouted angrily at Joshua. "What are you saying, damn it? Since when is my father no longer the Pasaraya Director? I'm his daughter, and even if he no longer holds this place, it should be given to me. You dare to talk nonsense like this. Have you thought about the consequences?""In this lifetime, I have never said anything meaningless. Madam, to me, facts are everything, so there's no way I would just speak like this, especially in front of you," said Joshua, who was still calm.In front of the three powerful people, he may have looked like a lamb ready to be slaughtered, but he was actually a wolf with very sharp fangs."You!" Mrs. Bernita was left speechless as her anger reached its peak.At the shop opposite, which sold branded perfumes, Delilah and Daran were busy wandering around with their hands full of shopping bags.They k
