"What if I can't make the real estate business grow? What if your business suffers a loss? Aren't you afraid of loss?" Joe asked for further explanation.Although there is a saying that "if you want to succeed, you have to take risks," Joe didn't want to follow that saying. He didn't want to risk losing his current job to start something new because he had to work hard to make his wife happy.It's been quite a few years since he's bothered Jesslyn and stayed home. He needs to rebuild his self-esteem."In the cooperation agreement, there is not a single point that harms you. I will also give you a generous salary according to your current work standard." Lucas took the document he had handed to Joe and then showed the points of the agreement he was explaining."Are you sure?" The doubt that was in his heart did not diminish at all. Now, it was growing."Why? Don't you trust me? I won't trap you or set you up. All the points of the agreement that I wrote there are clearly stated, and we
Joe looked at Aaron with one eyebrow raised, and he was confused by the man's presence, especially when he saw the disrespectful behavior that the man did by entering the CEO's room without knocking on the door first.Moreover, he increasingly needed help understanding the words spoken by Aaron. What wrong had his wife done that they both had to be fired?"What do you mean, what wrong has my wife done?" Joe asked. A cold, flat tone fell from his lips."Has your wife told you anything yet?" Aaron chuckled. He flashed a smile as he saw Jesslyn looking uncomfortable and intimidated by the gaze he was giving her.Joe was silent, his hand clasped even tighter around his wife's hand. His gaze did not move an inch from Aaron's figure, who looked arrogant and haughty."Judging from your expression, it looks like you don't know anything about what your wife has done wrong. Come, I'll tell you everything." Aaron approached the couple and didn't care about the company's CEO, who had been staring
Joe and Jesslyn were silent. Neither of them spoke, and both of them simultaneously kept their mouths shut as they walked towards the company's exit.At this point, Joe was still in complete trust in his wife. He was sure that Jesslyn was not guilty at all.Meanwhile, Jesslyn, who was slandered, her expression looked tangled because her brain had been thinking and looking for a way out of the problems that were currently happening to her."Wow, this couple turned out to be very compact. They were fired at the same time." Rocky made a gesture of covering his mouth with one hand as if to show that he didn't mean it."They're very compatible and destined to be a match. That's why they were always together until they left the company simultaneously." Rizky said. "By the way, you don't need to act like someone who doesn't know anything, Rocky. You should have guessed that both would be fired from this company sooner or later, especially after their dealings with Mr. Oliver."Rizky and Rocky
Joe squeezed his hair roughly after being put into the jail cell. He stared outside, where the police were busy on duty."What should I do now? How do I get out of this place?" Joe muttered in frustration.***Jesslyn stared at her husband's departure bitterly. She was at a loss for what to do, especially now that she didn't have much money to guarantee her husband's freedom.With sluggish steps, Jesslyn returned to the apartment and picked up her charging cell phone on the table."Hello, Mom. How are you?" Jesslyn opened the conversation. She was forced to call her mom for help."What's wrong? It's unusual for you to call your mom. Are you in trouble right now?" Rosetta replied sarcastically. From her daughter's tone, she knew that the other person was currently in big trouble. She could deduce that just by hearing her daughter's style, which sounded listless and desperate."Mmmm," Jesslyn was at a loss for what to say. She knew what her mother's character was like, so she could guess
Joe walked into Lucas's office with a firm step. This time, all the office employees bowed their heads, fearing the same fate as Hudson, the leader's cousin, who was dishonorably discharged for treating the man as he pleased."Mr. Joe, you are awaited by Mr. Lucas in his room." The receptionist, who used to look down and despise Joe, now served the man respectfully."Take me there," Joe replied haughtily. He tried to maintain his attitude not to be underestimated by the people there.Joe has had his fair share of experiences over the years. He was too often insulted for being too weak to make others feel superior and better than him.Therefore, Joe tried to improve himself by creating a new, stronger character so that he would not be easily insulted by people anymore."This is the room, Mr. Joe. Please come in."Joe nodded. He immediately entered the room, the receptionist indicated after knocking on the door.As soon as the door opened, Lucas' figure came into view. The man was sitti
Joe stares at a portrait of himself standing in front of a mirror. He was impressed with his current appearance, wearing a suit and tie from a famous brand. His athletic body also supports his appearance. "Work hard today, Babe. I will always pray for you." Jess straightened the tie her husband wore, which looked a little crooked. She smiled with satisfaction when she saw her husband's appearance, which looked neater than before."You are too much, Jess. It would be best if you hadn't bought me a new suit and shirt like this. Moreover, these clothes are costly.""CK, you don't need to protest. Just think of all that I'm doing as a form of appreciation because you already have a permanent job with a very high position.""Alright," Joe kissed his wife on the forehead. "I will gladly accept this gift."***Joe sat in his chair. It was a unique chair that only the head of the company was allowed to sit in."How do you feel, Mr. Joe? Are you happy and excited about working in this compan
Rizky tapped his finger on the table. He waited patiently in the room. While catching his ragged breath, Rizky reopened some files on his phone containing important information he needed to understand to win this big tender."Of the several companies that have jumped in to compete for this tender, I'm sure I'll win. There isn't a single company that is as big and influential as LizQui Company."Rizky felt he had the upper hand. His heart felt relieved because he was sure that the winner would be the company he worked for. If he managed to win the tender, then it was sure that he would get a promotion."This time, I can beat Rocky. I'll get a promotion if I win this tender, and Mr. Oliver has already vacated the marketing manager position for me if I succeed." Rizky chuckled softly as he remembered the marketing manager's promise.Rizky had nothing to lose by following the man's orders to manipulate Jesslyn, who was having personal problems with her family. He deliberately looked for l
Rizky snorted in annoyance, and he tried to resist the urge to answer Joe's challenge as, by now, several representatives from other companies had also arrived."Let's start this meeting."After that sentence from the chairman of this meeting, all of them, who were representatives of their respective companies, began to explain their greatness.No one gave in, so the competition was taut.This time, it was Rizky's turn to explain some of the tricks he would do and the advantages possessed by the company he worked for if LizQui Company had a chance to win the tender."That's all I can say, thank you." Rizky bowed his head slightly, then sat back on his chair.The applause was thunderous. Everyone who was there was amazed by Rizky's explanation.Joe, who saw that, just smiled sarcastically. He clapped half-heartedly."Enjoy your pleasure now, Riz. Because after this, I will make you cry." Joe thought.When Joe's turn came, the man got up and explained the strategy he would carry out if
