William had indeed finished his business at the old office and also returned to Grand Street Commercial. However, at home he didn't explain anything to Vera.
"Will, aren't you going to work?" Vera, who was serving breakfast, was suspicious of her husband not being prepared.
William grinned. "Nope."
"You got fired?" Vera was completely shocked.
"I'm not fired, Ver." William asked his wife to calm down. "I just changed jobs."
Vera was suddenly dizzy. "If you don't work, how can we save money, Will?" she asked dizzily. "After all, you're challenging Sarah and my mom."
William relaxed
The next day, while William was still at home, Evan informed him that he had finalized the building and decorations. They would be working on it soon."Sir, regarding the décor that you requested, is there anything you want to change or is it fixed according to the previous concept you gave?" Evan asked to make sure."I think it's just right." William had no plans to change or add. He asked for the building to be decorated with lots of flowers dominated by white. For everything else, the warm colors matched Vera's expectations.William prepared this all as a surprise. That's why he couldn't invite Vera to discuss further about how the building would be decorated. Now all William could do was guess what his wife's taste was and hopefully, what he did would match Vera's expectations."Very well, Sir." Evan had gotten clarity about the decorations. "Sir, I would also like to remind you about the designer Liam Vincenzo, he is ready to make the dress in 9 days. Today, Mr. Vincenzo requeste
"We'll have to keep waiting until this is over, Sarah," Amanda said in an annoyed tone. "But after this, I'm going to talk to Vera. I want to know where William got the money for all this. It's not a simple thing." Sarah, Jaiden, and Amanda then sat back down at their table, still in a state of shock. They saw William and Vera walking in the center of the room, talking and laughing with the important guests. They looked happy and confident, as if this was something they did every day. They waited curiously for the party to end. When the party ended, Amanda immediately looked for Vera. She wanted to get answers to all the questions that were on her mind. How could William, whom she had always thought of as an ordinary person, throw such a big party? "I don't feel well," Sarah said, feeling her head spin. "I need to use the restroom." With permission, she got up from the table and walked towards the toilet, leaving Amanda and Jaiden still sitting in astonishment and confusion. In the
"Now, let's give the bride and groom a round of applause!" an emcee exclaimed, breaking Jaiden's reverie. The audience clapped, flooding the room with roars and cheers. "Kiss, let's kiss!" shouted one of the guests, making the atmosphere even more boisterous. Vera's face turned red with embarrassment, while William could only scratch the back of his head. They both looked shy, but also very happy. The emcee saw the situation and decided to add a little spice to the show. "For the finale, let's see just one more moment of intimacy from the couple in front of everyone," the host said, getting the audience even more excited. With a distinctive voice, the MC again requested, "Don't be shy, William and Vera! We're all here to celebrate your love!" The remark was immediately met with applause and cheers from the audience, marking the culmination of the happiness felt by everyone in the room. William, who seemed to have gathered courage, slowly took Vera's arm. He looked at Vera with a ga
That morning, Vera was busy checking files at her desk. Suddenly, someone placed a cup of hot tea in front of her. Vera turned around and only managed to say "Thank you-" thinking that it was an office boy. However, she was surprised to see that it was Jhonas, Vera's own boss."Mr. Rivery?" Vera asked with furrowed brows, surprised. "Why are you giving me this tea?"Jhonas didn't answer Vera's question. Instead, he sat down in front of her without asking permission and started talking. "Vera, why didn't you invite me to your big party last week?" asked Jhonas, his voice full of disappointment.Vera was surprised to hear the question. She felt bad and honestly replied, "I didn't expect such a big party, Sir. I didn't think it would be such a big party."Jhonas seemed to understand, but he still felt disappointed."I'm sorry again, Sir," Vera said, her voice full of regret. "I'll be honest, I didn't expect William to throw such a big party. I thought he was just joking."Vera sighed, fe
William waited outside the office building in his car. When he saw Vera coming out of the door, he immediately opened the car door for her. Vera got in with a somber-looking face, different from her usual."Is your boss bothering you again?" William asked, trying to understand Vera's mood. He knew that Vera sometimes felt pressured by Jhonas' rather annoying attitude."No," Vera replied, staring out the window. "I'm fine, it's nothing." Her voice was flat, trying to mask her anxiety.William watched Vera. He knew that something was bothering Vera, even though she didn't want to admit it. "If you're fine, why do you look so glum?" he asked again, this time in a more serious tone.Vera sighed, then turned to look at William. "I'm just feeling a little tired, William, that's all. There are some things in the office that make me feel uncomfortable, but it's no big deal. I can handle it."Actually, it was the staff in her office about the branded bags. Vera really didn't mind, but she coul
"Beautiful flowers, for the most beautiful woman." William said those romantic words as Vera was getting into the car.Vera looked surprised. She received the flowers filled with happiness."Happy Anniversary, Sweetheart." William congratulated Vera on their third year of marriage."Do you remember this is our wedding anniversary?" Vera sat up. She hadn't fastened her seatbelt yet because she was first busy inhaling the scent of the flowers William had given her."Someone marked it on the calendar. There's no way I can't remember." William rolled his eyes. He should have known because Vera didn't seem to want this moment to pass."I did that on purpose." Vera admitted it because she knew most men would forget important moments.William just smiled."Like the flowers I gave you?" William asked hopefully as he watched Vera"I like them." Vera admits it and she doesn't get tired of inhaling the fresh scent of the roses.The first surprise had worked. It was just a matter of waiting for t
Jaiden, with a face full of anger, smiled sarcastically, "Alright, William. I'll prove to you that I can meet Sean Montgomery. And when that happens, I hope you're ready with your embarrassment!"William only showed a calm smile. "I will wait patiently, Jaiden."The tension in the room was growing. Sarah spoke up. "William, you're just getting carried away. You have the nerve to challenge Jaiden. Watch out, you'll embarrass yourself and Vera."William tugged at the corner of his lips. "I was going to say, prepare yourselves mentally!"Amanda was also annoyed at her son-in-law's attitude. "William, behave yourself!"William looked at his mother-in-law. "Mrs. Lyn, if you intend to move your business forward, you should entrust everything to your son."Amanda just snorted. Ever since Vera decided to reject many good men just to choose William, Amanda had been very disappointed with her ever since. "There's no need to talk about Sean Montgomery anymore," Amanda said, ending the argument
At first, Vera was skeptical, not believing that Sean, a man who had been known to be quite difficult to conquer, would take the conversation in a serious direction. She had always seen Sean as authoritative, assertive, and a little mysterious.However, her doubts were soon dispelled when they entered Sean's office. The room, which was usually filled with a relaxed and warm atmosphere, now turned into a serious arena for business discussions. In the center of the room, the Grand Street Commercial logo was displayed.They sat across from each other, on the large mahogany table that Sean usually used to confer. The discussion was in full swing, with Vera demonstrating her in-depth knowledge of the business and Sean making what seemed to be a very lucrative offer.Sean offered a contract with a fantastic value, reaching 500 million dollars. Hearing the figure, Vera suddenly panicked. ***William, as usual, picked Vera up in his favorite car. Along the way, Vera couldn't hide the big smi
