You wanted a position at Golden Tower, and here it is.”Edwin’s glare at Devon was so intense that if looks could kill, Devon would have been six feet under. “This is not what I wanted, you son of a bitch!! Are you all playing some sick joke on me?! Why in the world would Travis assign me to such a menial role when I held the position of Assistant General Manager at Golden Tower?! Absolutely not! This is unacceptable!”“It’s an order from higher up, Edwin. Now, the choice is yours: accept it or reject it,” Devon replied coolly, offering him a form.Edwin snatched the form and tore it to shreds in a fit of fury. “Accept what? I’ll never succumb to this disg

Travis received a call from General Manager Marshall, who provided an update on the construction project’s progress, with a particular emphasis on Joanna’s exceptional performance. It was evident that she was pouring her heart and soul into the project, which accounted for her busy schedule.To alleviate Joanna’s workload and improve his daughter’s daily commute to school, Travis decided it was time to purchase a car. It wasn’t just for her home, but for his daughter too. This wasn’t only for the sake of Joanna’s commute but also for the benefit of his daughter. With a car, he could simplify the process of getting his daughter to school and back home.Unbeknownst to Travis, trouble was approaching in the form of William, who was still raging over the Green Empire incident.

Mae, one of the salesgirls, found herself eyeing Travis with a sense of disbelief as she posed her probing question. It was hard for her to gauge whether Travis was genuinely interested in buying a car or if he was simply playing a prank.William responded with a scoff upon hearing Mae's question. "Are you actually entertaining him? Trust me, it's a lost cause. You will only be expending your efforts in vain. I know this man all too well, and I can attest that he's utterly broke! He's nothing but a destitute ne’er-do-well!”Sara, one of the saleswomen who had previously exhibited skepticism, chimed in with a hearty laugh, shaking her head in a gesture of dismissiveness. She chuckled and shook her head. "Mae, dear, you ought not to concern yourself. By entertaining his whims, you are merely subjecting yourself to unnecessary agitation. It would be prudent to allow him to gallivant as he pleases.”However, Mae's curiosity got the best of her. Travis seemed oddly sincere about purchasing

Sara looked at William with a sense of wonder. "Is it really true that he doesn't have a job?"William, with an air of confidence, nonchalantly responded, "From what I know, he's unemployed. Even if he manages to buy a car, I'm almost certain he'll come begging me to cover the expenses. Whatever he's up to, it's probably a ruse to deceive that poor girl. She'll soon find out that the card he handed her is worthless.”While William had no intention of assisting Travis out of any predicament, it didn't stop him from boasting in front of attractive women. Travis was undoubtedly stirring up trouble, and William was determined to make matters even more difficult for him.Sara chuckled, giving William an admiring smile. “You’re quite the generous young master, aren’t you?”William shook his head, wearing a proud smirk. "You see, this is just the tip of the iceberg. My family owns a highly successful company, and we have a solid partnership with Danforth Group. Trust me, that guy is utterly

Travis found himself deeply absorbed in thoughts about the mysterious message from Diane Monez. He could recall her clearly, and he knew that after his mother’s death, she suddenly retired from her work and was nowhere to be found.Back then, Travis hadn’t dwelled on the reasons behind her sudden departure; he was too young to comprehend the intricacies of the situation. All he had been certain of was that his mother’s passing had been far from ordinary. He had hoped that confiding in his father about his suspicions would provide answers, but he had been met with disbelief. Fueled by anger and a feeling of his father’s indifference to his mother’s memory, he stormed out of the house, deeming his father utterly stupid and feeling like he never actually loved his mother.He arrived at Golden Tower, getting the information from General Marshall that Joanna was present to deliver progress reports to him. Travis decided it was an opportune moment to surprise her by picking her up.Travis p

Joanna returned home to find a new car parked in the driveway, her face displaying clear astonishment. She entered the house, her bewilderment urging her to seek answers about the unfamiliar vehicle parked outside.As she stepped inside, before she could inquire with Travis about the car, Maya rushed toward her with excitement. "Mommy! Daddy bought a car! He picked me up today in a big car, it's out there!" Maya exclaimed, jumping up and down as she embraced her mother.Joanna couldn't help but smile at her daughter's enthusiasm, all the while casting a curious glance at Travis, who stood before her in contemplation. She knelt down to Maya's level, questioning, "So, is that true? Did your dad really get a car?"Maya eagerly nodded. "Yes, Mommy, it's right outside!"Joanna wore a warm smile as she approached Travis, a lingering sense of curiosity in her eyes. "So, you bought a car?"Travis affirmed with a nod. "I did."This prompted Joanna to ask, "How did you manage that?" Wondering a

It held crucial information about his mother’s death, and Travis was eager to learn the truth.Before heading to Mainville, Travis decided to visit the Golden Tower and have a conversation with his father. He held Maya in his arms as he took her outside to meet Joanna, who would drive her to school. While observing Joanna, he noticed she was on the phone, her demeanor seemingly unprofessional. She was smiling and speaking in a shy manner, leaning against the car.Travis sighed, trying not to dwell on it too much. He knew that mistrust wouldn't benefit their marriage. He shifted his attention back to his daughter and said, "Come on, sweetheart, Mommy will take you to school."Maya nodded enthusiastically, and Travis carried her towards the car. As he approached, he noticed Joanna swiftly ending her call and coming over just as he helped Maya into the car."I'm leaving
