“What should I do?” John asked. Silence, George just stared blankly. It was almost as if his brain just short-circuited but in reality, he was puzzled, asking questions in his mind. ‘Vanessa is here?’ ‘What the heck is she doing here?’ ‘Did she come here with Harley?’ ‘Definitely not!’ He shook his head. ‘He’s in prison’. Seeing the reaction of his best friend to the information that he just disseminated, John could not help but feel worried. “George, please don’t think too much about it”. “She didn’t come for you; she may have just come to observe your works after seeing your increasing fame on social media”. George inclined his head to look at his friend, and he said nothing. John felt even more worried. “After what happened to Gold Donald, Harley lost everything. Since then, Vanessa was left in the streets”. “No inheritance, no money, no connections, just herself”. “Since then, she’d be struggling,” John grabbed his best friend by the hand and looked into his eyes. “If V
The underwater experience was something that 100% of the VIP ticket holders among the tourists who attended this museum launch had never experienced in all their years of existence.It was so new and novel to them that they won’t forget it in a hurry.To some, it would likely stick with them for life.This was how influential George’s Museum branch launch was to them already, and the reaction of the VIP tourists only proved to validate this.And finally, the first phase of the tour today was over.There was a little break before the second phase would start and Lancelot would lead the tourists of the second phase through the tour.Throughout, Mrs. Hayes and Rita Bates were extremely busy as they coordinated the simultaneous events happening through the 2 launching branches in Oriental City and GoldStep City.Through their newly hired lead tour guide, Mr. Calibri and his assistants there, they were able to get live updates from GoldStep City.Just like here in Oriental City, it was a r
Ring! Ring! {Incoming call from Peculiar Rita!} Click! “Hello beautiful girl, anything wrong?” “Yes boss, a girl is at the boss’ door, she forced her way in here, she claims to be a close acquaintance of the boss”. John’s face changed. “Did she say what her name is?” “Yes, Vanessa”. Silence. With a concerned look now on his face, John turned to look at his best friend, he shook his head but George barely paid attention to him. At this moment, George had a strange smile on his face. John hit a part of his iPhone’s call interface, muting the call. {Call has been muted!} The next moment, he faced his best friend. “George, please don’t do this, letting Vanessa into your life again won’t let you heal”. “Keeping her at a faraway distance is the best way to heal”. “Meeting her alone will remind you of memories that you want to keep buried at the deepest parts of your heart”. “Please don’t do it bro, you’ll regret it”. “And like I told you, she came for your money, not you, she
The aftermath of the double museum launch organized by George’s Jungle Museum could only be described with a simple word, explosive.Social media, news stations, Oriental City, GoldStep City, Crack Town, the United States of Nuspearia as a whole, no one saw it coming as the fever of George’s Jungle Museum swept everything and everyone along in its wake.This time, not just the news broadcasting stations in Crack Town, but bigger and more popular broadcasting news stations carried the information.Between the time range from Saturday evening to Sunday, to Monday morning, there was a new household name, George’s Jungle Museum.“Mom, I told you about the museum”.

The little girl wiped her tears.She cried her heart about. “I wanted to go too mom!”In multiple households, different dramas related to the museum erupted.“Dad, I already bought the

30 minutes later, when it was just 10 minutes to 10:00am, George finally showed up at the venue of the photoshoot.He arrived to see John engaged in an exciting talk with the female professional photographer that was supposed to take them on the photoshoot.“Oh!” John exclaimed as soon as he saw him. “He’s finally here”.He went to shake his best friend even as he glared at him. “I thought you’d take forever before you will finally decide to come for the photoshoot”.George ignored him, flashing a smile at the female photographer. “Hi, the name is George, nice to meet you”.She flashed a smile back at him. “George Churchill, who doesn’t know about you in this region?” She chuckled.“It’s an honor to finally meet you in person, I’ve heard so much about you”.Some more idle talk later, George on his designer’s red suit with shiny designs was finally at the stage, posing for pictures with his best friend.And it was while they posed for pictures that he showed it to him.George showed hi
