"Mr. Jethro, how could I dare to deceive you? This bracelet won't appear in our store because not long ago, CEO Lee told us to prepare a valuable item that he may need." Vivian reluctantly nodded. "Is Mr. Lee planning to take it?" Jethro became furious. "Well." Vivian nodded again. "If it's for Mr. Lee, why bother showing it to me!" Jethro was angry. Vivian didn't expect it to be broken like this! "CEO Lee didn't say when he needed it or specify what it was. I saw your mother wanted an expensive item, thinking that if she liked it, I would prepare something else for Mr. Lee, but I didn't expect..." Vivian admitted, wanting a more significant commission. This item was worth millions of dollars, and she was unlikely to sell it in a year. But selling one item would be better than half a year's salary! Jethro was stunned by the price. Eight million USD! He lost a lot of money! Jethro glared at Xenia as if to say: "Why didn't you pay attention?" He wouldn't have looked at it for
Then, Conal looked in another direction and took a bank card from his wallet, saying: “I’ll pay for that broken bracelet.” “Director Lee, I...” Vivian seemed hesitant, still worried that Conal would be upset. “Quickly put your hand up, and I’ll pay for the bracelet. Also, order another precious piece of jewelry for me. It must be more luxurious than this bracelet. I’ll pick it up tomorrow. If anything else happens, I think this management position should be replaced.” Despite Conal being quite harsh, that was already very merciful. Vivian quickly thanked him and took the card. Suddenly, Conal asked: “Earlier, why did the bracelet break?” “This matter...” Vivian didn’t dare to hide anything, quickly recounting the whole incident. After learning the truth, Conal narrowed his eyes and said softly: “Extract the exclusive video footage of the incident for me. I’ll take it with me.” ... In a tea shop. Jonathan sat in front of a laptop, the screen replaying the scene of Milcah bein
However, there is no plan to allocate funds for repairs, and the school leaders plan to wait another two years to build a new school instead. Building a new school is not an easy task. Even if planning begins now, it will take at least two to three years to complete. The school leaders were worried and organized a fundraising party to persuade teachers to convince former students to contribute some money to repair the school. This is a normal thing for other teachers, but for Kieran, this is the last time he can contribute a little effort to the school. This time, he called the Jonathan group here, actually, to discuss this matter. He thought that if Jonathan knew Conal, he could say a few words to him and see if this wealthy businessman could contribute more. To his surprise, Jonathan told him that he and Conal only had a slight acquaintance. Kieran feeling disappointed… "I'll donate $5,000! Oh, teacher, I may not be rich, but I'm willing to support my old school!" Jessica imm
After thinking it over, Jonathan explained: “Because of business, I will spend most of my time there next year." He didn't explain any further. An ordinary girl like Jessica would be better off not knowing about power struggles in the underworld. "Oh.” Jessica didn't suspect anything and suddenly became curious: “So what do you do for a living? It seems like you have a big business. Rowena messaged our class chat, saying you will attend a fundraiser and resolve millions of dollars in school repair costs! What does that have to do with Rowena? Why did she bring it up?" Jessica felt angry at Jonathan. Everything was normal as long as they all donated to the school. But Rowena made such a statement, and if Jonathan couldn't deliver, he would become a laughingstock. How will he hold his head up in front of his old classmates? Jonathan also found it difficult to understand: “Show me your phone." Jonathan didn't participate in the group chat with his high school classmates, feeling i
Seeing someone coming in, all eyes were on Jonathan. “Are you the one who wants to discuss a business deal with Jethro? You have even so young, and you’re already imitating someone else’s business. What family do you belong to?” A guy wearing a gold chain around his neck stood up and asked. “Ha ha ha...” The whole room burst into laughter. Jethro was sitting in the middle, with two girls hugging him. He was holding a cigar, and he was not interested in Jonathan because he was a stranger. He thought that the person who the club’s receptionist had called him about must be someone terrifying. It’s okay to meet him for a while. What if there is a big business deal? He didn’t expect it to be just a young man. Jethro didn’t know Jonathan, but Jonathan knew Jethro. He was the person on the surveillance screen at Lady-Q’s shop. Jonathan approached Jethro step by step and said gently: “Actually, I’m not here to discuss a business deal.” “...Are you playing with me?” Jethro squinted hi
***Because I mistakenly posted the same two chapters 139. So I'll revise it to chapters 139 (1) and 139 (2). It's in chapters 138 and 139, so won't affect the progress of the story. I'll post longer chapters 140 and 141 to apologize. Sincere apologies, and hope you will continue to support my book.---After dealing with Jethro, Jonathan considered that he had gotten rid of anger about Milcah's the incident at Lady-Q's jewelry store.The main play would take place tomorrow.Jonathan paced along Slab street before calling Milcah on his phone."Jonathan?""Where are you?" Jonathan asked."I'm at home waiting for my wedding day." Milcah replied.Jonathan nodded slightly and said: "I already knew what happened to you at Lady-Q's jewelry store, and I have taken care of Jethro, so consider it revenge for you.""..."Milcah was stunned for a moment before expressing concern: "Jonathan, why did you meet him? Do you know what kind of person Jethro is?"Jethro was a thug who only did dirty de
"Chairman Roger attending my wedding is truly an immense honor! I am truly blessed..." Jethro raises his hands to shake hands.However, Roger coldly glances at him, leaving Jethro stunned."Miss Milcah, it's just a small token of appreciation, nothing much." Roger ignores Jethro, treating him as invisible. Roger walks up to Milcah and hands her the prepared gift.The gift is inside a box. No one knows what's inside. But it's not cheap when someone of Roger's status gives a gift."Is it for me? Me?" Milcah stammers, not daring to believe it."Yes, this is a gift that this lowly person dedicates to you, hoping you will accept it." Only in front of Milcah does Roger smile warmly."Thank Chairman Roger quickly!" Jethro scolds loudly, but Roger reprimands him, making him frightened again.At this moment, Conal rushes over and presents his prepared gift.Since Milcah had already received a gift from Roger, she must also receive Conal's gift.Derek's eyes light up like car headlights. No mat
“Day after tomorrow, I plan to attend my school’s charity party, then we can leave for San Francisco.” Jonathan said calmly as he lit a cigarette.“Everyone will follow your arrangements.” Roger naturally had no objections.Jonathan continued: “Right, use the name of Rise & Shine real estate to donate ten million dollars to Slab’s S-II school. Also, put my name in, and I want to be a representative!”He had agreed with Kieran to attend the party, so he couldn’t let his teacher lose face.“This is simple. I will do it right away.” Roger replied hesitantly.“Okay.”Jonathan didn’t pay much attention, and he knew that his assigned tasks were small and Roger would handle them satisfactorily. What he was apprehensive about was something else.Suddenly, Jonathan looked up and asked with a smile: “Roger, how do you think I should handle the matter at my house?”Roger didn’t expect his employer to ask him that question. But since Jonathan asked, he must answer.This time, when he came to Slab
