"Do you want to die? Such greed!" Jeannie poked Ricard’s forehead with her finger. "But seriously, it's your first day as a business executive, and you've negotiated such a big order. It's a record. From now on, you will be responsible for that training program. Contact Secretary Croes directly if you need anything.""No problem at all," Ricard gave an OK sign.Back at Demneri Group, Jeannie hurried to handle business, having secured the hospital project. The plans would keep her busy for a while.Ricard was heading to the Business Department when his phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, Ricard’s lips curved up. It was Liam.Ricard felt genuinely apologetic towards the tough policewoman."Hello, Liam..." Ricard answered, only to be interrupted by a shout."Ricard, get to the Night Butterfly bar now! I’m about to be hacked to death!"Ricard’s face changed. He told her to wait for him and hung up, rushing to the Night Butterfly bar.For a long time, Night Butterfly bar had been a major foc

"Kid, I’m giving you a chance. Come with my young friend here, and I’ll spare your life. How about it?" the buzz-cut man’s lewd voice rang out.Bloom’s eyes roamed over Liam, licking his lips."Choose how you die," Kelsey said calmly."Huh?" the buzz-cut man raised his eyebrows, looking at Kelsey. "Kid, are you talking to me?""Yes," Kelsey nodded. "Choose how you die, and I’ll fulfill it.""I didn’t hear you," the buzz-cut man looked at Kelsey as if he’d seen a ghost. "Say it again."Kelsey turned to Danny behind him. "Did I speak Mandarin?""Yes," Danny nodded."Loud enough?""Loud enough.""Then he heard it. Since he won’t choose, you choose for him," Kelsey gestured to Danny."Understood," Danny’s expression didn’t change. She took a step forward, and a cold light flashed. In that flash, ten fingers flew into the air.The buzz-cut man’s hands were immediately drenched in blood.The sudden scene left everyone stunned.The buzz-cut man screamed like a slaughtered pig.

"If we encounter her, any delay in reporting might let her escape.""Let her escape. Do not engage!" Flora repeated."Why?" Ron asked.Flora glanced around. "Because I don’t want to see unnecessary casualties."Ron’s face showed displeasure. "Captain Flora, I don’t understand. While we may not match Ron, we are still elites. Your remark about unnecessary casualties is excessive."Flora apologized, smiling. "I’m always straightforward. Sorry."Flora then gestured to Ivy, who changed the image again. This time, scenes of devastation appeared: smoke-filled ruins, deep craters, raging fires, severed limbs, scattered heavy weapons, even two destroyed tanks.Flora explained, "This is a private armed area in the Golden Triangle, home to about four hundred armed mercenaries, all killers. Inside were two armed tanks. In one and a half hours, it was destroyed by one person, the same woman you saw. Do you still question my warning about unnecessary casualties?"Everyone in the room was stunned,

The Demneri Group building's lock could be opened from the inside, and Jeannie didn’t bother to question how Ricard got in.Nicklas’s car was parked in the lot. When he saw Jeannie and Ricard walking out together, he wasn’t surprised at all, simply greeting them as usual.Jeannie got into the car, her face slightly flushed, the recent events a personal secret.When someone develops feelings for another, it often happens unconsciously, through small actions and moments that eventually form a bond.That night passed quietly.The next morning, Jeannie woke up an hour earlier than usual. She had decided the previous morning that after going through so much with Ricard, she couldn’t let him handle all the housework alone anymore.Jeannie, wearing a loose sky-blue nightgown, didn’t see Ricard anywhere in the room, her face showing confusion.Outside, she heard rhythmic sounds.Jeannie frowned and went out, finding Ricard in the yard, punching a tree. He wore only shorts, his bare skin shini

"What else can we do?" Chairman Mann rolled his eyes. "Follow the Young Master's instructions and sign the contract."Seeing Chairman Mann’s stance, the Demneri elite team outwardly showed no reaction, but internally they were full of admiration for Ricard.Ricard is truly impressive!After handling this matter, Ricard returned to the company just in time for lunch. He went to the cafeteria for a meal and then waited for the afternoon work hours. When the afternoon shift started, Ricard entered the Business Department once more.As he entered, Ricard recalled that the department director had been looking for him earlier in the morning.He walked to the director’s office door and knocked. After waiting for a while with no response, he decided to check elsewhere."Ricard, where were you this morning?" Kristy appeared in front of him, looking displeased."Running an errand," Ricard replied nonchalantly.Kristy’s face darkened in disappointment. A new employee, only on his second day, was

"Cheers!" Naccy clapped first, sparking a round of applause.Everyone raised their glasses.Roth and Naccy’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction.Though Ricard knew their deceit, he didn’t expose them immediately. If he were running the Demneri Group, these two wouldn’t see the light of day, but now he couldn’t handle it his way.The Business Department was newly established and needed stability. If Ricard ruined this deal, it would cause headaches for Jeannie and disappointment for the staff.The department staff, unaware of the deceit, had poured their hearts into this negotiation.Ricard raised his glass with a smile.Drink after drink, the atmosphere grew livelier. The Frenchmen became more audacious, groping the marketing girls, who skillfully dodged their advances."Let’s open more bottles and drink to our hearts’ content," Naccy stood up, grabbing two bottles.As Naccy opened the bottles, Ricard noticed her hand lingering on the bottle's mouth. Her actions made Ricard’s eyes turn co

"Master, Ron of Soggetto has completely taken control of Supperazza. All communication devices are tapped, and sensitive information can't be transmitted. We can only contact you like this," a voice came from the darkness."Alright," Ricard nodded. "Speak.""Danny has been exposed. We've received news that Ron has deployed three teams to Supperazza, along with some members of various families," the voice continued."Ha," Ricard chuckled. "No need to worry about Danny. Let her intentionally reveal some of her movements. Some people need to be taught a lesson. Even family members have ulterior motives against us. It seems the major powers are becoming restless."The next morning.On the way to work, Jeannie told Ricard he didn't need to go to the office but to the Traditional Medicine Clinic to handle some teaching-related matters. There were many things that required his personal attention.Ricard, of course, complied with Jeannie's orders without question.He spent the entire morning

"Young lady, women in sales need to know how to protect themselves. You should understand that a partnership between companies is mutually beneficial. We aren't begging them. For people with bad behavior like that, you should use your authority. If anything happens, Chairwoman Demneri will back you up. She won't let her people suffer, got it?"Maria's eyebrows arched as she rubbed her forehead, seeing Ricard's serious face. She nodded, "Got it, Ricard.""Good. Today, you'll follow me, and I'll teach you how to handle sales," Ricard said, his hands in his pockets, striding forward. "Let's go.""Where to?" Maria hurried after Ricard, instinctively asking."We're going to gossip."Supperazza is the capital city of Clio province. Next to the Demneri Group's building is a comprehensive commercial building with numerous companies of various sizes. The scenes inside are quite peculiar: some companies with large offices might only be internet companies, while some tiny offices might handle bu

The sudden incident left Jeannie terrified. Even after the bicycle was hit, she hadn’t recovered.Ricard comforted Jeannie and then angrily walked to the driver's seat of the BMW, shouting, "What kind of driving is this? Didn’t you see the red light?""What's the rush? What's the rush?" The car door opened, and the young man stepped out slowly, "I didn't hit anyone. Just compensate you, right? How much do you want? Three thousand yuan enough?"The young man pulled out three thousand yuan from his pocket and threw it on the car's hood. Before Ricard could respond, he added another three thousand: "If it's not enough, here’s six thousand, okay?"Ricard took a deep breath, "This is not about money. I need your attitude, apologize to us!""Apologize? You must be joking. I didn't hit you. You just want money, right? Fine, here's ten thousand yuan. Is that enough?" The young man threw another stack of money on the hood.He then glanced at Jeannie, trying to gauge her reaction, but she didn'

The staff's words made Jeannie unconsciously look at Ricard.Although they had registered their marriage more than a month ago and even took wedding photos, their relationship had always been lukewarm. Now, suddenly being called Ricard's girlfriend, Jeannie's heart skipped a beat, and even the tension of the impending bungee jump was pushed aside."Hey, man, come here. What are you hiding from? Your girlfriend dares to jump, and you're hiding behind her. Come and hold her tightly." The staff urged, waving at Ricard.Of course, Ricard didn't refuse the staff's suggestion to jump while holding Jeannie, cheerfully running over.Jeannie looked at Ricard in front of her, seeming a bit hesitant: "Didn't we buy two separate tickets? Can't we jump one at a time?""That's right, a couple's ticket. Come here and stand firm, put on the equipment, and don't mess around." The staff said while fitting the equipment on Jeannie and Ricard. The eighty-meter-high jump platform had a hot wind blowing in

“Sure.” Ricard didn't hesitate to hand the Coca-Cola to Jeannie.Jeannie looked at the dark carbonated drink in her hand. There were many things she always wanted to try: singing wildly, acting cute like other girls, playing with social media apps, buying her favorite snacks. But due to her family's strict upbringing, she never did anything too extreme. She never went to karaoke to sing loudly, never bought a pile of snacks, never bought a bunch of cold drinks in the summer. She always maintained a calm and mature demeanor, drinking a hot cup of tea at the company every day. Sometimes she would see others with a cold drink and feel a desire to take a sip, but she feared that doing so would shatter the dignified image she had built in front of her employees. Although she appeared to have many things, she had never experienced things that were easily within reach for ordinary people.Like Coca-Cola. When she was young, her family didn't let her touch these carbonated drinks. As she grew

For Ricard, physical endurance wasn’t an issue. Cycling seventy kilometers, even carrying Jeannie, was no problem for him. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, making the time fly by.Two hours passed unnoticed. The midday sun blazed overhead, heating the road. Ricard cycled along the highway, enjoying occasional shade from roadside trees."President Demneri, are you thirsty? I’ll buy us some drinks." Ricard stopped at a roadside stall, buying two cold Coca-Colas."Why Coca-Cola?" Jeannie asked, puzzled.“For the refreshing taste.” Ricard took a gulp, letting out a satisfied “Ah.”“I’ll have water instead.” Jeannie placed the Coke on the counter, opting for a bottle of mineral water.Ricard gallantly opened the bottle for her, and Jeannie took small sips.Ricard could tell Jeannie was very thirsty, but she still drank slowly, a habit from childhood.“Alright, let’s go. Only twenty kilometers left. If I speed up, we can reach Haihu soon and enjoy the afternoon there.”Ricard resume

Ricard heard the cheers and smiled, looking at the woman standing at the microphone with pride. This was his wife, capable and talented! With a few short sentences, she had inspired everyone’s enthusiasm. The employees' attitude towards work could indeed shape the future development of the company.Irena, who had just been fired, had packed her belongings and quietly left through the side entrance of the company. Seeing Maria with a large rose pinned to her chest, standing at the front of the company and receiving praise, made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She had heard everything Jeannie said over the microphone. Five hundred thousand, even split between two, was still two hundred and fifty thousand each! Why should Maria get that money?Irena glared at the company's main entrance with resentment. If it weren’t for Maria and that damned new hire, today’s events wouldn't have involved her!Irena took a deep breath, trying to console herself. Even if Maria got two hundred and fifty

Jeannie chuckled lightly. "In the end, you're still trying to comfort me, but in your own unique way.""Am I? Ha ha." Ricard laughed heartily, ruffling his hair. "Sit down." Jeannie gestured to Ricard.Ricard did not stand on ceremony, sprawling comfortably on the sofa.Jeannie poured him a cup of tea, an unprecedented gesture from her. This act made Ricard feel both pampered and uneasy. "No, no!" Ricard quickly stopped her."What's the matter? Are you mocking me?" Jeannie shot Ricard a sharp look. "A man who can easily get the head of the largest corporation in France to come to Supperazza to sign a contract can’t accept a cup of tea from me?"Ricard gave a wry smile. Initially, he hadn't planned to let Jeannie know about Eugene, but with today's events, including Prince Charles’s presence, there was no way to keep it hidden.After pouring the tea, Jeannie sat down opposite Ricard, lightly rubbing her forehead. "As usual, explain.""Ah… I saved Eugene’s life once, and since then he’s
Spin-off 4: Ricard (117)
When Eugene heard that Jeannie was Ricard's wife, his expression immediately turned respectful. "Lovely lady, forgive me for saying, but you truly are the most beautiful angel I've ever met.""Uncle Eugene is the manager of the Zefiro Group, the largest financial group in France," Prince Charles reintroduced Eugene to Jeannie.Although Prince Charles didn't use flowery language or mention astronomical wealth, saying it was the largest in France was enough for Jeannie to understand the significance of the old man standing before her. A man like this could hardly be someone Ricard found to collude in defrauding the company.Outside the reception room, Naccy and her group waited for the outcome.Jeannie quickly exited the reception room, and they all looked at her, awaiting a response.Jeannie scanned the group and spoke, "Director Naccy, this has been a misunderstanding. Mr. Eugene is indeed the partner Ricard found.""How can that be?" Naccy's first reaction was disbelief. How could so

"Mr. Eugene, please wait. I'll go get Ricard.""No need," Eugene called Maria back. "Ricard entrusted this deal to me. If you don't sign it, I'll refuse to cooperate.""What?""Girl, how your company distributes the bonus between you and Ricard is none of my business. You can discuss it with your boss later. For now, go get the contract."The sudden success of the deal and the enormous bonus were overwhelming for Maria. It took her a while to process it.As Maria left the reception room to get the contract, her face still showed signs of disbelief.Everyone in the business department saw Maria's expression. When she left the reception room, they all started talking."What's wrong? Couldn't close the deal?""She looks like she failed.""She's a rookie trying to handle a deal herself. What did you expect?"Kristy and others showed disdain. "No," Maria waved her hands. "The deal is done. The client agreed to sign the contract.""Signed?" Kristy's eyes widened in disbelief. She knew the v

"Three... hundred thousand?" Maria's eyes glazed over at the number. Her family was ordinary, and her parents had worked hard their whole lives without saving that much money. Three hundred thousand was enough to buy a house in Supperazza, enough for someone unemployed to live comfortably for years, or to buy a BMW. For Maria, three hundred thousand was an unimaginable fortune.Hearing Eugene say that this deal alone could yield a bonus of three hundred thousand made Maria feel like she was dreaming. "Girl, so, will you sign the contract, or do I need to call Ricard?"Maria swallowed hard, stammering, "I... I..."Hearing Maria's response, Eugene felt a bit disappointed. He understood that three hundred thousand might not mean much to him, but it could change an ordinary person's life. With three hundred thousand, they could buy a big house, a luxury car."I... I need to call Ricard and ask him to treat me to a good meal. Three hundred thousand is a lot! Mr. Eugene, please wait a momen
