The news of the new CEO had already spread around the company.

Everyone who saw Kevin smile and greeted him, “One needs to leave good impression on the new CEO.”

One of the employees said, smiling wildly

Of course, when they first saw him they felt like his dressing was in contrast to his surroundings

He took an elevator to the CEO office and after entering his office, he sat on the big leather chair and looked at Claire briefly who entered the room with him.

“Do you have anything else to talk to me about?”

He flipped open some of the folders on the table and asked casually as he looked at the contents in the folder.

Kate and Claire looked at each other.

Claire gave Kate a smile to comfort her, she took two steps forward and said,

“Sir, about what happened today… I am really very sorry and about the matter of Kate signing her contract,”

Claire paused before finishing her sentence

Kevin didn’t even raise his head as he chuckled to himself

“Sign her contract?”

“Yes”

Claire awkwardly rep

    Lily was not comfortable going up to the stage so she just decided to stand by her seat, looking slightly uncomfortable.“Actually, it was nothing at all… when I went over that day, I didn’t get to see the president of Williams Media. It was his secretary who brought me the contract and asked me to sign it.”Everyone was astonished to hear this,“What!? They signed a contract right away?”Someone else said,“So just like Drake, she didn’t get to see the new CEO of Williams Media either.”Another one added,“I thought she was very capable. Painfully, she was just lucky cause she went there when the new CEO of Williams Media was in a good mood and that’s why she got the contract.”Drake who was sitting beside Grandma Jones couldn’t help but sneer when he heard the comments from the crowd.He turned his head to see Grandma Jones reaction but he was already coming up with an idea to get even with Lily for making him look badDrake spoke up loudly so that everyone in the room could hear,“

    When Ivy saw Drake’s sapphire card, she couldn’t but look at him differently.Although she was the most prominent member of the Anderson family, she only had about two million in the bank.That’s why she has Deluxe bank gold card which was one grade lower than Drake’s.Although she had previously said that she could double the price to buy her own Dream Lover necklace, she was secretly going to ask her father to pay for it.Seeing Ivy gaze on him even made Drake more excitedHe went on and said,“You can do whatever you want! I’ll pay for everyone tonight. However, that table isn’t included.”The table Drake pointed at was the table Kevin was sitting. Because Kevin hadn’t fully been accepted by the Jones family, very few people were willing to sit at the same table as him.The people who chose to sit with him weren’t as wealthy or popular as the rest of the guest.Drake simply didn’t care if he offended them.He continued to push Kevin’s buttons,“Kevin!

Mr. Collins please don’t hold it against us and don’t worry, we’ll get you the money right away.”After saying that, she turned to the Jones family member who were in the banquet hall,“We can’t let Drake pay all the expenses tonight. Each of you should contribute five thousand dollars, the rest of the money will be paid by Drake and me.”Everyone nodded in agreement.They had no choice but they wanted to look like they were okay with it.However, two of them couldn’t hide their concerned and had very embarrassed exp

Put your card away.”He was going to give Kevin his meal for free.Then he told the hotel manager that Kevin’s meal would be free even in the future.Kevin was stunned and he opened his mouth to speak but Collins immediately understood and quickly changed his offer.“How about I give you a discount? A fifty percent discount!”He turned to the hotel manager and said,“Please go ahead with Mr. Williams bill and bring it back to me.”The hotel manager quickly nodded,“Right aw

    After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr

    "How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra

    "It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd

    "That has to be disappointing. You think you're more handsome than me? Everyone knows that just isn't true." Kevin teased him. "What do you mean by that?" Mike retorted as he slammed his fist on the table. "Don't be angry, Mike. This whole thing really isn't worth it." Lionel tried to persuade his friend. Then Luther tried to calm him down. "Relax, Mike. You're absolutely right. Kevin must be jealous of you. That's why I said there's something wrong with this pill.""You still don't understand, do you? Both you and your father were cheated by someone. This isn't an augmentation pill at all. Kevin told them bluntly. An augmentation pill is more of a light blue color. Plus it contains some floral ingredients which gives it a beautiful fragrance. Take another look at the medicinal pill you just gave our professor." Kevin continued."It's obviously the wrong color and has no fragrance at all." They were all stunned to hear him say this. Even Penny reacted and stared keenly at Kevin. Mike

    "Don't be so modest, Mike. Who is better qualified to be our class leader?" Luther chimed in. The rest of the students just sat there quietly and watched the show that the three of them were putting on. But they didn't want to seem ungrateful. So they were willing to go along with the idea of electing Mike to the position."Since no one has any objections, then how could I decline? But let's just call it a temporary position. If anyone feels that I'm not carrying my weight, just say so." Mike declared as he raised his glass to toast his classmates.Professor Murdock stayed out of the discussion. And quietly observed her students as they drank their wine and socialized with each other. Meanwhile, Penny just sat quietly by the window nursing her glass to mute. Her classmates were too intimidated by her to go up and talk to her.While this was going on, Mike took Lionel aside and asked him to go down to his car and bring back a red gift box that he'd left in the trunk. Lionel came back a

    "Since you think this is just a bus pass, I guess I'll just put it back in my wallet." Kevin said as he started to take it back from the concierge. “Well, since you've already taken it out, why don't we give it a try?" Mike replied. He obviously didn't want to pass up this opportunity to make Kevin look like a fool. So he ran things up and added."Let's see what the hotel staff can do with it." While the crowd was laughing at Kevin, the hotel employees were staring in disbelief. They weren't sure how to defuse the situation. The employee who was holding Kevin's card started to get very nervous when she took a good look at it. During their training, all of the employees of the Whistler Hotel had been required to memorize the appearance of the Supreme VIP card. And that's exactly what Kevin had handed her. Cook had explained to them that there were only five cards like this in all of Veridonia. And they were only given to the hotel's most prestigious clients.The group of students saw t

    "Unfortunately, the Whitsler Hotel's largest room was only available to special guests." Mitchell Cook didn't mind if the largest private rooms remained empty most of the time. It was more important to have them available for his wealthiest clients. Since the staff hadn't been alerted by Cook that there would be a VIP group this evening, they assumed that this bunch of students didn't have the proper reservation."What kind of rule is that? I don't have a membership card, and I'm not from around here. All we need is a room. I don't care how much it costs. I'm willing to cover it." Mike said confidently."I'm sorry, sir. Without a VIP membership card, we won't be able to open the room for you." The concierge replied firmly. "Then can I apply for a membership card right now?" Mike asked. You could tell he was extremely disappointed to see his plans fall apart like this."I'm sorry, sir. Our largest private room is only available for our most exclusive members. Als

    "Please, just say it. You won't hurt my feelings." Kevin exclaimed as he watched the road. "Just look at what happened in the parking lot. Your classmates were all looking down on you because they thought you didn't have a car. It seems that you invite this kind of ridicule, “she said bluntly."If you're too embarrassed to take anything from your wife, then you really should jump at this opportunity." Professor Murdock told him earnestly. "The School for the Healing Arts is the greatest opportunity in your life. Just work hard and focus. If you have any questions, you can always come to me. This is your chance to make a name for yourself.""I understand what you're saying, Professor. I'll definitely work harder from now on," he replied. Kevin stopped at a crosswalk and said to her very sincerely, "But could you please give me my phone back first? I promise I won't take it out during class."“Haven’t you been listening to me?" she snapped at him

    "Mike's absolutely right," Lionel agreed. Kevin, "Professor Murdock really took it easy on you today. That's why you're being allowed to come along to tonight's dinner. Don't put any of your classmates in an embarrassing position. Just take a taxi. If you don't have enough money on you for a cab or to call for a ride on your own, I'll give you a few bucks to cover you. How about $20?" Then he pulled some cash out of his pocket and offered it to Kevin.Everyone around them laughed when they saw him do this. They really thought Kevin was pathetic. Kevin frowned as he looked at the money in Lionel's hand. He wondered what the heck was wrong with these guys. "Aren't you overwhelmed by my generosity?" Lionel grinned as he patted Kevin on the shoulder. "There's no need to thank me. After all, we're classmates.""Did I tell you I needed a ride? “Kevin replied very coolly. "What do you mean? Don't tell me you drove here." Mike sneered."You really drove here, Kevin? Quick, show everyone what
