“What do you mean? Are you looking down on boss?” Jake questioned suddenly. He was suddenly standing beside them and looking at the man in tuxedo. If looks could kill, the man would have been dead already.The man smirked. “He even calls him boss. "What an irony,” he laughed the more.Kevin scoffed. "Then let's hear the price, as she has said. And let's see who loses.”The older salesperson cracked. “I can't wait for this to unfold.”Alexa moved away but soon returned. She had a tablet in her hands.“The clothes on each statue have a trouser and a top each. One has a jacket and an inner blouse. And we have just three Mannequins. So, the total is 300,000 dollars,” she revealed.The older salesperson started laughing again. “Can you hear that? Did you? There's no way you will be able to afford that.”She had already measured them the moment they walked in. This was why she didn't even bother herself with attending to them. It was all going to be a waste of energy. From their clothing, o

It was eight in the night when Jake pulled in front of Perry's villa.“Should I pick you up tomorrow, sir?”Kevin nodded once, even though he wasn't yet sure how tomorrow would be. But then he was sure that he would definitely be leaving home tomorrow.Besides, he still needed to meet and talk to Louis concerning his plans.He walked inside. It was late in the night. So, no one was in the living room.Kevin thought perhaps Mia was even asleep now. Well, if she was. Then, he might have to wait to talk to her the next day.The reason he was intentionally coming late was because of her family anyway.“I thought you were coming early,” a soft voice said suddenly as Kevin started towards one of the maid rooms.Kevin stopped in his tracks and turned towards where the voice came from. Mia was standing by the fridge. She opened it and pulled out a bottle of water.She took a sip and turned to look at Kevin. “I've been waiting for you.”“I had a lot to do.”Mia gathered her brows amazingly.“A

Mia woke up that morning feeling indifferent. She slept late because she was busy thinking about Kevin.But she knew she had to eat with the family that morning, especially since Morris already said he was going to tell the home family what Kevin had been up to.She was already dressed before breakfast. She thought she might also drive Kevin to work. With that, she would be able to monitor Kevin's every movement.Mia looked at Morris as everyone settled down for breakfast.Morris also looked at her, as if silently reminding her what he had promised to do.“Grandmother! Mia has offered Kevin a position in the company.”Everyone turned to look at Mia, as if they couldn't believe what she had done.She expected it, though. She knew the day would come and her family would question her. She made the decision alone anyway.“What?” It was Morris' father that spoke. Even her father looked disappointed, but she wasn't even expecting much to begin with.“What will that useless husband of yours

Mia was half upset and worried. Maybe she should have confronted Kevin about it and made sure he told her the truth before she let her family know.But then, she couldn't control that in some way since it was Morris that actually told her family. And she and Kevin already had a disagreement the night before.Maybe, just maybe they could discuss it at work that day.Also, she wanted to talk to Morris. She wondered why he didn't tell the whole family that he was cheating, or maybe he doesn't even have any evidence to back up his claim.She pulled into the garage, got out of the car, and went inside the company.Her secretary met her in the elevator. “Get Kevin to see me now.”Her secretary bowed and walked out of the elevator before it would close.When Mia got inside her office, she dropped her bag and awaited Kevin. She believed they would need to settle the issue before any work that morning.Though she knew that if she wanted Kevin to continue to work in Euphoric Bio, she wouldn't h

He walked to the secretary desk. “Hi,” he called softly to gain her attention.The secretary ignored him and continued to rummage through her desk for something he had no idea of.“Excuse me?” Kevin called again.The secretary finally looked up, but the dirty stare she sent Kevin was enough to last him for a decade.“Can't you see that I'm busy? I'm looking for something!” She snapped.Kevin was taken aback. How could she be so rude? It was as if she had something against him already.“I don't mean to. I mean, I am here because your boss.“I know! Aren't you Kevin, the boss husband?”Kevin hesitated. “Then you should know why I am here.”"Yes, but you will give me some minutes to get myself sorted out. I didn't come here for you.”Kevin scoffed. He was shocked and disappointed. How could Mia's secretary be talking like this to him?Well, he wasn't really shocked anyway. Mia secretary must have seen the family abusing him. Now, it's not even a big deal to her again.“Are you going to w
