The students were in the basketball hall, a spacious room with hardwood floors. Bright lights adorned the ceiling, providing ample illumination for the entire room. On both sides of the room, there were stands large enough to accommodate spectators.Jordan and Robert were not there. William was quite relieved to see that. However, there was something that made his heart race, making him feel tense.Vera was there. William was shocked to see his girlfriend there too. He didn't expect Vera to come to this place.Vera was sitting in the stands with her friends. She looked cheerful, laughing and joking with her friends. She didn't realize that William was there too.William was on the opposite side to Vera, standing in the middle of a crowd of other students. He felt confused and didn't know what to do. He saw Vera, but Vera seemed oblivious to his presence.William whispered to Sebastian, his best friend who was standing next to him. His face looked worried, as if something was bothering

William turned around and found Sebastian greeting him."Vera can't go out with you. I think you should go with us." He looked happy that William's date had failed.William tugged at the corner of his lips. "It's great, isn't it, I get to go with you guys."Sebastian laughed, he put his arm around William. "Come on, come with us. There's a free meal for all of us and there are beautiful girls waiting for us."William couldn't believe Sebastian could think of something like this.William just went along with him this time. They went to a place where they were partying. Neon lights flickered, music echoed in his ears, and the atmosphere was full of energy. They got a table in the corner, far enough away from the crowd that they could talk without having to shout.The party was filled with all kinds of delicious and interesting food and drinks. There was a long buffet table, filled with various foods from different countries. There was sushi from Japan, pasta from Italy, tacos from Mexic

As the bar started to heat up, people began to gather around the long table in the center. The challenge was about to begin. The contestants, including Andrew and Sebastian, took their places, each with a line of beer glasses in front of them. The atmosphere grew louder with excitement and anticipation.William, who was never interested from the start, watched from a distance, a glass of juice in his hand. Sonya, secretly intrigued by their competition, wondered if they could really handle their drink.Jim, who acted as the host, stood at the head of the table. He raised his glass high, signaling for silence. The chatter subsided, and all eyes were on him."Ladies and gentlemen!" Jim began, his voice echoing through the bar. "Our brave contestants have accepted the challenge to drink as much beer as possible in five minutes. The winner can ask anything of the loser. Are you ready?"Cheers erupted from the crowd, anticipation palpable. The contestants glanced at each other, some with d

As the competition progressed, Sebastian continued to encourage his friend who was about to lose the match."Andrew, come on, you're a giant! Don't want to lose to Josh!" Sebastian encouraged his friend.Josh was still strong enough to drink. His gaze was mocking as he watched Andrew begin to bloat his stomach. He may have a big body, but as an active sportsman, Andrew certainly didn't drink much. They had to maintain their health.Josh's gesture and Sebastian's encouragement got Andrew's spirits back up. Although at the beginning he felt like he was going to lose because he wasn't prepared, now he was able to convince himself to stay strong enough to finish all the cans of beer in front of him.

"Berta, wait!" William couldn't take Sonya with him. Why did Berta just leave like that?"Will, how is it?" Andy asked as he was about to get into Jim's car. William looked at the others, who seemed to have gotten their allotment to take their currently stoned friend home. If he was going to leave Sonya like that, it was going to be bad. "You can go." William said flatly. "I have to take Sonya back to her house.""Oh, okay." Andy didn't say much. "If there's anything, just call me.""Take it easy." William was confident enough to handle this on his own.After Andy left. William approached Sonya carefully so as not to startle her. He touched her shoulder. "Get up. I know you're not too drunk yet. You should still be able to lift yourself up."Sonya pinched inwardly, that William was quite cruel. He didn't even help Sonya to get up, instead throwing accusations like that.However, what else could it be? It was true that Sonya wasn't too drunk because she also only drank a little. The

Vera asked William to have lunch with her at her house. She plans to make a special lunch. Today she plans to make macaroni pasta and cream soup. William agrees to the invitation and he will be there.Meanwhile, the weekend at the boys' dormitory ...."Let's get a burger at our favorite place!" Sebastian was ready with his cell phone, as he asked his friend what they wanted to order."Me, potatoes, a jumbo burger, and a large soda too," Andrew mentioned his order.Andy had no idea what he wanted to order. "Just match mine with Andrew's.""Then I'll do the same with you guys." Sebastian followed suit. It was William's turn. "What do you want?" Sebastian asked."I'm not having lunch with you guys," William said."Well, where will you be going today?" Sebastian was curious. "Well, I'm going to Vera's house. She invited me to have lunch with her.""Lucky someone who has a beautiful and kind girlfriend!" Sebastian teased.Andy said, "That's why you should be careful falling in love with

"You shouldn't talk to me that rudely, I'm not your slave!" Sonya folded her arms when William refuted her words. "Indeed, you are not my slave. But, you promised today that you would help me. You suck!""Never mind, stop talking." William was reluctant to argue now. "What should I do?" Sonya handed him the car keys. "Take my stuff from that car." She pointed to a Mini Cooper that was in the parking lot not far from their position. "There's only one bag in there, just take it. It's mine and don't you dare open it, or I'll accuse you of being a thief."Reluctantly, William walked towards the Mini Cooper that Sonya had pointed out. After a few minutes, he returned with the bag Sonya was referring to in his hand."Here's the bag," William said as he handed the bag to Sonya. Sonya accepted the bag quickly. "Now, come with me," she ordered, leading William towards the Theater Building.They walked in silence, William following Sonya obediently. Once inside, Sonya pointed to a number of

Sonya smiled to herself as she thought about how stupid William had been when he was pranked earlier. William was so obedient, even when Sonya told him to peel the fruit for her, he did just that."Huh!" Sonya sighed. "It's been revealed that William isn't as rich as I thought. If William was a rich man, there's no way he would willingly do such things. Rich people usually have high self-esteem, they wouldn't want to be treated like that," she thought to herself.Sonya felt like a fool for thinking that William would be richer than Errick. Fortunately, she found out first and was able to prove what a loser she was.Errick was at her house that night. They spent an intimate date, watching their favorite TV series, while sitting back on the couch, eating fries.Errick realized that Sonya had not been focused on the TV series they were watching, instead she seemed to have been engrossed in her own thoughts. Just now Erric realized that Sonya was smiling to herself."Sonya, why are you sm

"Divorce my husband?""That's right, Vera," Sarah continued. "You're so heartless to stay married to a husband who has already displaced your mother from her former position."William smiled at that. He said, "Sarah, my mother-in-law got a higher position if you must know. Anyway, I did it because I thought it was time for JL. CORP to do better and for my mother-in-law to rest and enjoy the

Amanda went limp, she was unsteady. Fortunately, Vera caught her before she fell."Mom, are you okay?"Amanda just shook her head slowly. She looked at William, thinking that he was useless and also just a nuisance to Vera. Lately he had given Amanda a lot of evidence, but she was still reluctant to accept that William was not the loser she thought he was.Now he's meeting with the big boss of a business in their country. One of the richest in their country was William's grandfather and it was clearly recognized before his eyes."Welcome to my home, Mrs. Lyn and my granddaughter-in-law." Lucas Anderson welcomed her graciously.Vera was still holding her mother but she couldn't take her eyes off Lucas.Lucas smacked William on the head, scolding him. "I told him to reveal his identity a long time ago, but he deliberately hid it."William grinned. Then he said to Amanda, "Mrs. Lyn, I apologize for only introducing my family to you now. I hope that from today I will be well received. Ple

"Wow! Isn't that the latest Bugatti that costs so much?" Stephani exclaimed as she saw a Bugatti parked in front of her office. A man got out after the car door was opened by the driver."Hey, isn't that Evan Nolan?" Deborah asked as she pointed at the man who had just opened the car door for William.Stephani noticed again from the upper floor where they were watching the handsome man who had just gotten out of the car. "Oh my, isn't that Ms. Vera's husband?" "Ms. Vera's husband?" Deborah asked with her eyebrows knitted together. Then, she chuckled, "Huh, I don't think that's possible. How could Ms. Vera's husband come to the city office in such a nice car. Who does he think he is?""I don't know, but look again," Stephani pointed out the window. "That is indeed Ms. Vera's husband.""Huh, is it really him?" Deborah asked again. "If it is him, what is he doing here?" Stephani shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know. This is bound to be big news."While they were talking about William

The Rolls-Royce that William gave to Vera yesterday was in the name of Grand Street Commercial, not in the name of Vera or William. Meaning, they were using the company's inventory, not their own. That's what Sarah thought.Sarah laughed at that. She almost thought yesterday that they were so rich that they could own a Rolls-Royce."Huh, apparently it's just a company owned car." She poured him a glass of orange juice.Jaiden thanked his wife before he responded to her. "Huh, I expected that. How could an unemployed man like William give such a luxurious gift."Sarah sat in front of her husband, enjoying breakfast as well. "I'm still curious how William was able to get everything so easily. I remember that he gave my grandparents quite an expensive gift and now he can still give Vera a luxurious surprise. I'm quite curious how he was able to capitalize on all that."Jaiden thought about this too. "Hemh, he must be bragging right now and proud that he was able to fool his wife with tho

"Sarah are you taking me home?" Vera asked her cousin who was still stunned from the shock of just hearing William talk about Rolls-Royce."Yeah, sure." Sarah prepared to drive Vera home. Along the way, she only watched Vera who looked happy and nervous at the same time whether her husband really bought a Rolls-Royce.She drove the car at high speed and they arrived faster than William expected.Sarah and Vera finally arrived at the apartment. They got out of the car and walked to the elevator.As soon as the elevator doors opened, they walked to the parking lot. William was already waiting there, smiling broadly. He invited them to walk further into the parking lot.Sarah and Vera's eyes were immediately drawn to an elegantly parked car. It was a shiny black car, with a striking 'RR' logo on the front. It was a Rolls-Royce.Sarah almost froze, unable to believe that there was such a thing as a Rolls-Royce.But that didn't mean it was Vera's, did it?Vera looked happy. She approached

William was checking his work from the apartment. He received some good news, the Rolls-Royce he bought yesterday was ready to be delivered to the apartment, they were on their way.He hasn't said anything to Vera yet, still wanting to keep this as a surprise."Will, I'm going to the salon today, with Sarah. Is that okay?" Vera asked. She wasn't ready because she didn't think William would let her.It wasn't about him being possessive. Rather, it was about Sarah, who would usually tease Vera, making the atmosphere uncomfortable at times."Yes, you may." William agreed without further ado. "Have you chosen a good salon?"Vera mumbled for a while. "Uh, I don't think so. Sarah hasn't said anything about which salon she'll choose either.""Wait here for a moment!" William asked Vera to wait then he sent a message to Evan asking where a good salon was for Vera to get a treatment.Evan replied quickly with the name of a good salon. William checked it out over the Internet and he thought i

Today, William is in his office to find out how their business plan is progressing.Sean Montgomery said that Lucas Anderson also liked the proposal that Vera had made. Every number listed there and what it was used for seemed realistic.Actually, there are other companies that are also good at doing business proposals. However, since William had strongly agreed to propose his wife to get into this company and also they were competing with his own mother-in-law, Lucas sided with William this time and gave his grandson a chance to prove to his in-laws that he could be a good son-in-law."Your grandfather has agreed to this and I've also told your mother-in-law to agree to your request to appoint Vera as director."William smiled. "What did my mother-in-law say when you called her yesterday?"Sean shrugged his shoulders slightly, "She didn't say anything, just went along with what I told her to do."William raised one corner of his lips. That was good, he had expected that his mother-in

Sean Montgomery is ready to say who will be working with Grand Street Commercial. However, he is still holding back his announcement. Sean didn't give a reason why he was still holding back. However, Amanda got an invitation to meet with William."Well, while I was waiting to hear from Sean Montgomery, it was surprising that my son-in-law asked to meet." Amanda said that in a sarcastic tone.Two cups of warm and fragrant lattes were soon served on the table. William, who had just arrived, immediately raised his cup, inviting Amanda to make a toast. Amanda looked at him for a while. She felt it would be rude to refuse, so she raised her cup."Mrs. Lyn, sorry to interrupt your busy time," William said with a serious face.Amanda only responded indifferently, "You should work so you know how to respect time!"William just smiled, unfazed by Amanda's words."Well, drinking a latte to put you in a better mood, I guess borrowing fifteen minutes of your time won't bother you, right?"

Vera has finalized her business proposal she submitted to the Grand Street Commercial company. However, William received other news that was no less surprising."I received two proposals from JL. CORP," Sean said as he called William."Two proposals?" William, who received the news, raised an eyebrow. "Who sent the proposals?""One in the name of Vera Lyn, your wife and the other in the name of Jhonas Rivery as the vice president of the company."William furrowed his brow. Why did Amanda plan this? Hadn't it been agreed that Vera would represent their company in the tender this time.Hemh, it seems that Amanda is secretly trying to cheat William and violate the agreement they have made.Hemh, but this is not a big deal. Because, William is the main character who controls all of this."Then you just accept both of them, during the presentation we will see the proposal that best fits our company's criteria.""Alright, Sir. I will do as you ask."Vera came out of the bathroom. Several ti
