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
The party that was originally characterized by the low rumble of laughter and the sound of brindis cups, had now turned into a tense and confused atmosphere. People looked at each other, whispering, trying to understand and digest what had just happened. The light that had danced on happy faces was now reflected in every corner of the uncertain room. Sarah, the woman who had been the magnet of attention, was now the center of gossip. She who previously walked among the guests with a sweet and confident smile, now had to leave with a broken heart. Her cheerful face had been filled with gloom and anxiety. Daniel Withman was the talk of the party. Just as he had revealed his love for Sarah, now another woman was claiming to be pregnant with his child. This news was like a time bomb that exploded in the crowd, turning the party into a battlefield. The guests began to whisper, talking about Sarah's unfortunate fate. Some felt sorry for her, suggesting that she leave Daniel immediately.
Sebastian chose to leave the party, deciding to seek peace in his usually quiet and cozy dorm room. There, he sits alone, calming his mind that's been muddled by the news he just heard. Suddenly, the door to his dorm room opened and Dany, his best friend, walked in. "Are you okay, Seb?" Sebastian looked at Dany, then smiled. "I'm fine, Dany. You don't have to worry," he replied, trying to reassure his friend. Dany patted Sebastian's shoulder, offering encouragement and support. "I know it must be tough, Bro," Dany said, his voice full of sympathy. "I can imagine what it's like to see the woman you love getting attention from another man, and then she accepts and they even get to do an intimate scene." Sebastian smiled again, wider this time. "I'm fine, Dany," he replied again, in a more reassuring tone. "I'm not bothered about Sarah. I'll get over it." Dany was relieved to hear Sebastian's answer. However, Sebastian continued, "Although I feel sorry for Sarah, I won't interfere.
