The man, Jeremy, was the head of the dormitory and Belinda's cousin.William still couldn't guess what Jeremy's purpose was in greeting him.When he arrived, William asked, "What's wrong?" William's eyes were full of curiosity.Jeremy looked annoyed. "Do you think this dormitory is your private apartment, so you can come and go as you please?" he said in a sharp tone.William was surprised and astonished. He didn't expect to be confronted with a question like this."But I always get home before closing time, don't I?" he retorted, trying to defend himself. He did often go home at night, but always made sure to return before the dormitory closing time.Jeremy snorted, unsatisfied with William's answer. "Closing time? You think that's the problem?" he said, crossing his arms over his chest.William was confused, he didn't know what exactly was the problem. He felt like he was walking on thin ice, afraid of making the wrong move.Jeremy continued, "It's not just about closing time or any
The morning sun began to rise, giving a golden color to the blue sky and campus park. Some students seemed to be busy walking to and fro, some carrying books, some were engrossed in conversation. In the middle of the crowd, two figures were seen standing under a large tree, enjoying the fresh morning air. Belinda's hair was tied in a ponytail, making her look beautiful.Meanwhile, Jeremy looked different. His face was upset, his eyes were bulging and his lips were moving quickly, indicating that he was talking about something that made him angry. The topic this time was not far from William."You know, he's shamelessly wrapping food for the dorm kids, after just showing off with me getting out of a fancy car," Jeremy complained, his voice sounding furious.Belinda couldn't help but laugh at Jeremy's story. "Geez, Jer. You're too serious," she said, still laughing. Jeremy looked at Belinda with a puzzled expression. "You should have seen who was driving him," Belinda continued. Jeremy
William's cell phone rang. The young man's eyes fell on his phone screen, which showed the name "Evan". He reached for his phone, and quickly swiped the screen to pick up the call."Hello, Sir," Evan said in his distinctive voice, clearly audible on the other side. "I'm on my way to deliver a suit for you. Where can I find you?""Deliver a suit?" William questioned He was still confused that Evan would suddenly deliver a suit. "What for?"Evan explained, "The Withman family is having a banquet at the Grand Galaxy Hotel. You know, they are in the process of collaborating with your grandfather's business."William was confused. "Aren't they going bankrupt?" He remembered hearing news about the financial difficulties faced by the Withman family."Yes, they have been acquired. However, the Withmans are only helping to run the management," Evan explained.William was surprised to hear Evan's explanation. He had not expected that the Withmans were now under the control of the Anderson famil
Soon the sky began to change color, from bright blue to red orange, a sign that the sun was beginning to set. Evan drove a striking red Ferrari, speeding down the road towards the campus gate. The clock on the dashboard read 6pm.Although the car was quite conspicuous, Evan always knew how to hide it. He chose a rather dark spot on the side of the gate, a place that was quite hidden from the crowd of students walking by. It was quite sheltered by the lush trees and the shadows of the tall buildings around it.Evan parked his car carefully, making sure that it was not clearly visible from the main road. He turned off the engine, then looked back, checking if anyone had seen them. Calmly, he looked at the crowd of students walking by, waiting for William to arrive.As the campus crowds began to die down, Evan sat quietly in his luxury car, waiting for the right moment to start his next stunt. He knew that in this world of attention, solitude and secrecy were precious.In the distance, W
William turned his head, looking for the source of the voice. His eyes then met a familiar figure. Apparently, it was Merida, his ex-girlfriend who left him to be with Jordan.William looked around, trying to figure out why Merida was here alone. Where was Jordan?Merida, who noticed William's gaze, immediately solved the confusion. "Jordan went to the toilet," she explained with her chin up. "Well, it's a surprise that I met you."William just shrugged, then said yes. He didn't need to explain further. To him, perhaps it was meant to be. They met that night, in the same place, and in the same situation. Perhaps, this was the universe's way of telling William that he should always be aware of wherever enemies might appear.William noticed Merida. That night, Merida was wearing a black dress that accentuated her fair skin, with a fitted cut that showed off her beautiful curves.The details of the dress, such as the small sparkling sequins and the delicate pleated accents on the skirt,
"William wait!" Tania planned to call out to William more forcefully. However, the woman suddenly stopped her steps for a moment, then she held her voice.Tania clearly remembered the command Evan had given her. They were not to show that they knew William.The order echoed in her head, reminding her how important it was to keep this secret.Tania had a better plan. Instead of showing that she knew William, she would play the role of a good woman. A woman who was smart and protective of William.That way, Tania could gain William's trust. That way, she could approach William more deeply.Tania watched William from a distance, he was trying to choose a seat at an event. Some of the people there seemed to be ignoring him, as if they didn't care or even realize William's presence.Tania felt a little annoyed. "Too bad they don't know William," she muttered to herself. If only they knew who William was, they would probably scramble to find the best place for him.While William was busy lo
William was surprised when two women suddenly sat next to him. They were Loisa and Angela who seemed very eager to approach him. William watched them for a moment. Angela, who was right next to him, waved and said, "Good evening, Mr. Anderson, we meet again."Meanwhile, Loisa smiled as she pulled Angela's hand and said, "Good evening too, remember me, right?"William, who looked stiff, replied, "Good evening, Ladies. It's nice to see you again." Although his reply sounded stiff, the two women were still eager to approach William.Meanwhile, Tania, who was watching them, just stared sarcastically. She felt lucky that she managed to approach William before the two women.William refocused on the ongoing banquet.The MC of the banquet was preparing the order of events and started introducing the Withman and Montgomery families who were rumored to be working together. Angela looked confused and asked, "I wonder, why is Montgomery's name mentioned? Isn't this cooperation related to the And
That night, the atmosphere in the room was full of excitement and anticipation. The MC excitedly hosted the event, his voice booming through the room, spurring everyone's heart rate. "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen," he said with a big smile. "We are very grateful to have you all here tonight. We have an exciting agenda that we have prepared especially for you."After a few announcements and introductions, the MC finally called the Withman family representatives to the stage. "Now it's time for us to hear from the Withman family themselves. Please give a warm welcome to Stanley Withman!"Stanley, standing tall with an aura that exuded confidence, took the stage. He looked at the crowd and smiled, searching for familiar faces. In the crowd, his son, Daniel, stood proudly. He felt proud to see his father standing on stage, representing their family. His friends chuckled, mesmerized by Stanley's aura.He delivered his speech quite well. Talking about the development of their family b
