"Sophie, is everything okay?""Yes, your face is suddenly pale. Did something go wrong at work?"Grace and Lady were getting curious. They knew Sophie was a confident person. For a question that could end in a compliment, why was Sophie suddenly 'worried'?"Sophie, we've been friends since college. Just tell me if something is bothering you. We usually share our problems, right? Seeing you like this makes us worried. Did David forbid you from working? Did he ask you to resign so you can stay at home when you get married?"Sophie shook her head. "No, no, he's happy that I'm doing well." She tried to smile."So?" Her three friends asked in unison.A breath escaped Sophie’s mouth. It seemed like she could no longer hide the big problem she was having."Guys, as bad as what happened to Lady and Mary last night, it's still worse what happened to me. I can't cry anymore because my tears are running out."Lady, Mary, and Grace frowned. They wondered even more, what could be worse than being
The opulent Greenroad Villa estate appeared absolutely breathtaking. An exquisite and masterful villa, enveloped by sprawling gardens abundant with colorful blooms and fragrant fruit trees. Its grandeur was a vision to behold, captivating and enchanting all who laid eyes on it.At night, the lights that adorn the villa make the view even more beautiful. In fact, because of the many lights installed, Greenroad Villa is also known as the 'Garden of a Million Lights'.The one word that best describes the luxurious estate is perfect!Everyone in the city and even in the country would love to have a taste of life at Greenroad Villa. However, they won't be able to even if they hand over suitcases of money. The reason is that the villa is not for rent. Mr. Tom Roodenburg built the place specifically for the Roodenburg family and charity events only.The charity night itself was not attended by just anyone. Those who came received special invitations because they were recorded as having a lo
Jack's jaw hardened as he turned to the voice of the troublemaker. 'Damn!' he muttered to himself in annoyance.Jack looked away for a moment. It wasn't David's cursing that upset him, but the presence of those people that could threaten tonight's beautiful moment. 'Why did they have to come now?’Swearing to anything, Jack was immune to any kind of cursing. He had become accustomed to it long before he even knew his true identity. However, tonight was different. He had invited Audrey to accompany him, and he couldn't help but wonder if she had dressed up all pretty and elegant just to subject herself to the insults of those people.Despite his usual immunity, Jack felt uneasy as he led Audrey into the gathering. He couldn't understand why he had to meet with those annoying people again, especially when they were all gathered in full force, making it all the more of a nuisance."Jack, we can go if you want. And if it needed, we can run!" Audrey tried to give a solution after seeing
"You don't believe me?!" David was apoplectic at the sight of Jack. "Look, one little scratch you cause on this car can cost a lot of money to fix at the car repair shop. That's why you should never put your smelly back on a car that doesn't belong to you! Even if you work for the rest of your life, you won't be able to buy a rearview mirror from this car.""Wow!" Jack held his head. In his heart he continued, 'You'd faint if you knew this car was mine!David came closer to Jack. He grabbed the man by the collar before whispering, "Even though you're close to Mr. Matthew, don't think you can do anything. Look, Mr. Matthew is just a subordinate of Young Master Roodenburg. Wait until I meet the Young Master. I swear I'll make you beg at my feet for daring to humiliate and work me the other day. You piece of trash!"David pushed Jack still with bulging eyes. Then, he pointed his index finger, "Watch out! Don't you dare cause trouble at this charity event, or I'll make Young Master Rooden
The charity event at Greenroad Villa was held in the grand auditorium. A large stage was at the very front, looking stunning with an elegant design. The dominance of gold color further enhanced the luxurious impression. Moreover, premium red cushioned chairs were lined up neatly in tiers.All the guests were mesmerized by the beauty of the auditorium at Greenroad Villa! It was one of the best auditoriums in the country.David, Sophie and their friends sat side by side in the same row of seats. It was quite far from the stage. Jack smiled before pointing, "Over there!" With the help of the guards, it wasn't difficult for Jack to find David, Sophie, and their friends' entourage among the many guests attending the event.Audrey nodded. She and Jack walked quickly to the group of troublemakers."Hey! You can't sit here! Go and sit somewhere else!" Lady ambushed with a scolding when she saw Jack and Audrey sitting right behind her.No less surprised at Jack and Audrey's presence, Mary re
Seeing an opportunity to embarrass Jack, Sophie didn't want to waste it. During her time as his girlfriend, she had never seen Jack play the piano.This was no cheap instrument!Let alone buying a piano, Jack didn't even have enough money to take piano lessons. So, was he dreaming and talking out of his mind?'All he can do is deliver pizzas. There's no way he can play the piano. You want to be stylish and impress your girlfriend? You're making a big mistake bragging around me!'Sophie was 1000 percent sure that Jack was lying!So, after the applause stopped to signal the end of the little pianist's performance, she prepared to raise her hand in case the host invited guests to showcase their musical talents.And she was right!Sophie's prediction was totally right!The host did exactly what she thought she would.So, Sophie quickly took action. Not only did she raise her hand, she also stood up to make sure the host could see her clearly."Yes, that pretty lady over there!" The woman
The guests began to whisper about Jack not soon playing the piano. This made Audrey even more uneasy. She bit her lip. She wanted to stand up and come forward to pat Jack on the shoulder and ask him to come down, telling him not to push himself.Not only Audrey, but even Matthew looked nervous. He didn't stop looking at Jack, wanting to come to him too. However, it was obviously impossible because he still had to maintain Jack's identity.'Young Master.' That was all Matthew could say. Even that was without a voice.Ting!Jack finally pressed a key."Hahaha, that's all he can do. A cat can even make more sounds if it walks on the piano keys. I'm pretty sure the next one will be funnier!" David mocked again and got a happy smile from Sophie and her friends.They all had the same desire, to humiliate Jack! Seeing Jack being laughed at would definitely be the most beautiful and exciting sight.'Young Master, I beg you, don't push yourself,' Audrey thought to herself as she clasped her ha
"That's right. I work at King Pizza. Have you ever been there?""People say the food and drinks are good there, but I've never been.""Please bring your son along. We pride ourselves in providing the best service to our customers, wouldn't you agree, Mr. Steve Shatner?" Jack wanted to show his appreciation to Stave for doing his job well by kicking James out of King Pizza so pleasantly, and making Claire to be the manager.Steve Shatner who was sitting among the other invited guests immediately stood up. He bowed very low and said emotionally, "Thank you, thank you."Steve obviously didn't expect that Young Master Roodenburg would still be so kind to him after what happened before. He felt very happy that his shop was promoted in front of the invited guests. It was a great gift that would definitely have a great impact on his business."Hahaha, Mr. Steve it seems like your courier ran the promotion very well." The host's words made people laugh. "I wonder how Young Master Roodenburg r
