Anthony Curtis was shocked to hear the door of his office being slammed open.When he saw who it was, his face immediately turned red with anger."MARK FERRO! What does this mean?""Did you call me, Manager Curtis?"Anthony was taken aback by Mark's sarcastic tone and attacked with words, "What is a mere employee, of the lowest rank, doing with such an arrogant attitude?""Manager Curtis, my time is precious," Mark replied, leaving the door open, "Let's address what happened."Anthony was a bit confused, but continued to speak angrily, "Yes, let's talk about what happened! How dare you barge into my office and take Miss Vasconcelos, one of our most esteemed collaborators?"Where did you take her? We have CCTV footage showing you taking her by the arm to I don't know where!"You better tell me now what you did with her or where she is, or I'll fire you and report you to the police for kidnapping Miss Vasconcelos!"Mark was not shaken by the words.He shook his head slowly, feeling disg
Anthony Curtis was catatonic for a few seconds. He couldn't believe what his ears had just heard.Him, fired?He was about to fire the troublemaker janitor!How is that possible? What did he do wrong?Anthony shook his head and questioned, "Gene, today is not April Fool's Day. Stop with the prank!"Gene rolled his eyes and signaled to someone, "Manager Curtis, this is not a joke. We received strict orders for your position to be terminated today.""Gene, I demand that you give me an explanation—"Anthony was even more shocked to realize that Gene had hung up on him.João, Mary Ellen, and the other employees were in shock, not knowing what to say. Did they hear correctly?"Manager Curtis, why are you reacting as if YOU were the one being fired?""Didn't you explain to HR that it's janitor Mark who has made our company an impossible place to work?" João asks scandalously, entering the office.Mark, glancing disdainfully, warned João, "Careful, idiot. You never know when HR is in a bad m
Mark was smiling at the entrance of Glamour, waiting for Briana to take him to her family's house.Some employees, like Mary Ellen, kept their distance from Mark, with an inexplicable fear.Suddenly, Briana's luxurious car stopped and Mark quickly got in."Mark, why are you smiling?""Let's just say things are falling into place," Mark replied, fastening his seatbelt."OK. Now we need to introduce you to my family," Briana replied and added, "Are you okay with that?""I'm fine." Mark turned to her with a reassuring smile."I know it seems sudden." Briana thought it would be good to explain, "But there's a banquet happening today and I need to attend."So I thought it would be a great opportunity to introduce you to them as my husband."Mark needed no motivation for this."Understood. I just need to go to my apartment to dress up.""Yes, I understand. Let's go then." Briana smiled in relief, "Thank you so much, Mark."Mark nodded, and Briana headed to his old apartment.'Briana, you wi
Mark continued to observe the scene unfolding in the dining room of the Vasconcelos mansion.He had expected a harmonious banquet with decent people, just like Briana was.After all, if Briana was a good girl, it must have been due to the upbringing her family had given her, right?But with their reaction to the marriage, Mark changed his mind.What he had said about Briana needing to get married after being drugged and having relations with him had proven true once again.If Briana were to say that she had lost her virginity without Mark by her side, she would be torn apart by her family!But it seems that Briana is receiving the same treatment even after introducing her husband to them."I'm waiting, Briana!" her grandmother impatiently shouted, "Who is this young man?""His name is Mark Ferro," Briana respectfully replied, although inside she was outraged."I've never heard of him, so just stating his name is unnecessary!" her grandmother replied arrogantly, "What does he do?"Bria
At this point, it's unclear whether the Vasconcelos family had gathered to celebrate a family member's birthday or to have fun at the expense of Mark and Briana.However, this was the result after Briana futilely presented Mark as her husband.Mark's final remark made the others laugh until they couldn't anymore."He, he, he! I didn't know janitors had access to confidential company information!" Katrina exclaimed mockingly."It looks like the Glamour hierarchy is revolutionizing, huh? Now even the lowest-ranking members know about contracts and corporate collaborations!" James joined in the mockery.Gilson felt uncomfortable for having such a lowlife visitor on his birthday and decided to join in, "Young man, bragging is a bad habit, you know?"Didn't Briana tell us that you worked in janitorial? Did you happen to overhear classified conversations when you entered the office to sweep the floor?"Katrina shook her head in disdain, "No, Dad. This guy is probably a spy, listening to oth
Everyone laughed so hard that they were practically gasping for breath, leaning this way and that.A poor loser bragging about booking the Aurelia Cathedral?Who did he think he was?!The Cathedral of Aurelia was famous for its medieval-style construction, which had been preserved and renovated by the government over all these years, maintaining its original appearance.As a result, the venue had been one of the most famous points in the kingdom of Aurelia.And only the privileged elite are eligible to enter.Even their family — the Vasconcelos family, weren't qualified.So how could someone like Mark, a mere working-class janitor, qualify?Truly laughable!Mark, on the other hand, remained completely unaffected.Wasn't it clear in his own mind whether he was qualified or not?If he wasn't qualified, then hardly anyone in this world would be!With indifference, he observed first-hand how a bunch of snobs behaved."Oh my God! Briana, where did you find this husband of yours? At some st
Briana couldn't bear it anymore.She thought she could at least have some tolerance from her family.She'd understand that her family would feel some weirdness that she brought a completely unknown man into their house, especially introducing him as her husband.But she didn't even have a chance to explain how things unfolded.The Vasconcelos family showered her and Mark with insults and mockery.Even worse, she received no support from her parents, who only knew how to bow their heads or blame her for the embarrassment.Listening to her cousin and her fiancé talk about a bet was the height of absurdity for her.She stood up and spoke with wounded dignity, "OK, I see that my husband is causing discomfort to you all. Mark, let's go."Mark looked at her calmly and asked, "Are you worried about them, dear? It's me who is uncomfortable!"The Vasconcelos family was filled with rage at Mark's statement.Is HE uncomfortable? How dare he?"You're quite arrogant, aren't you, poor man?" James s
Sandro and Nadir looked at Briana imploringly.Would their daughter consider it this time?However, Briana slowly shook her head. "No, I won't divorce my husband.""Enough! I've heard enough!" Althea gestured with both hands, "Sandro, Nadir, you're both also expelled from here!""WHAT?" Nadir widened her eyes, "But why do we have to pay for our daughter's mistakes?"Althea looked at her daughter-in-law and eldest son with extreme disappointment.She desired to slap them both, but she felt they didn't even deserve that.Her eldest son didn't have the same business acumen as his father and was relegated to a position lower than Gilson.Gilson was Althea's favorite son. That explained even more why she felt extreme anger at Briana for interrupting his birthday party by bringing Mark."The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." That was Althea's response."No, Mother, for God's sake!" Sandro tried to grab Althea's hands, but she quickly pulled hers away, scowling."I've decided. The punis
