Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 78: Intimidating Aura
“MISS WESTMANCER,” Charles greeted in an authoritative tone, but confusion was also evident on his face. “Why are you here? You have another project to take care of, am I right?”“Yes, sir,” Katie nodded as she immediately went in front and quickly set up the PowerPoint. “I apologize for my tardiness. This will never happen again.”Katie Westmancer is the project manager of the Remington Corporation’s strategy department and Myra’s boss. She’s a forty-two-year-old woman who looked mischievous and pretentious at the same time.One of the reasons why August didn’t choose the Strategy Department in the first place was because of her. He wouldn’t get a rock and hammer it into his head.&n
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 79: Confrontation!
“KATIE,” August called as soon as he reached her position, making Katie raise a brow.She looks at the person in front of her with annoyance and dismay at the same time.‘First name basis? Without honorifics? Did he think that we’re close enough?’ Katie’s lips parted as those thoughts filled her mind. ‘Our age gap is huge! How rude!’August, on the other hand, didn’t mind at all. For him, respect is earned and not given just because they were older, or they were powerful in some organization.And seeing how Katie crossed her arms as she looked at August from head to toe— obviously mocking and judging him by her looks— tells him that s
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 80: Can You Trust Me This Time?
MEANWHILE, MYRA was on the rooftop, feeling the cold wind burying deep onto her skin. Her eyes were already red because of her nonstop crying, but still, tears continued falling down her cheeks.She didn’t leave even if Katie kicked her out of their department earlier after stealing the proposal from her.After all the things she endured just for the internship, she couldn’t leave that easily.'She just didn't steal my proposal, but failed me on my evaluation…' said Myra at the back of her mind as she heaved a sigh in dismay.It was her hard work! Even if she couldn't go back as a Remington Corporation intern, she should take the credit for her proposal, at least!
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 81: Emergency Meeting
MYRA WASN’T able to answer immediately. She stared at August for a long time, her lips parted as she was about to say something, only to shut it as fear consumed her. Since Samantha left them, she realized that even her own family could hurt her that much, so what more if it was strangers? She would be disappointed, but not shocked. “I… I don’t know,” Myra finally had the guts to say after a few seconds. She bowed her head in embarrassment because of two things. First, because she let her emotions overtake her, and second, despite August helping her earlier, she couldn’t trust him this time. She expected August to be mad, but she flinched a bit when she felt his hand patting her head. When she raised her head, she saw August smiling at her— genuinely. “Go home for now. You look tired,” said August with pure sincerity. His smile never left his lips, making Myra dumbfounded. However, as she doesn’t have the energy to argue anymore, she just nodded before walking onto the rooftop d
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 82: Leave That To Me
“THE REASON why all of us are here is to brainstorm, and you’ll leave early because you’re going to think of a solution alone?” Sapphire raised a brow. “Sit down, and if you have something to say, say it here— in front of everyone.”‘She isn’t in the mood.’ That’s the conclusion August had in mind. ‘Maybe this problem took a toll on the marketing department as well.’August felt amused and afraid at the same time. Sapphire’s voice was authoritative to the point that Katie couldn’t do anything but went back onto her seat, and bit her lower lip.‘This adopted bitch!’ Katie clenched her fists under the table. She composed herself to think about something, but she couldn’t have any ideas since she wasn’t the one who was generating ideas about her submitted proposals in the first place.Katie’s eyes flickered on the room. Everyone was also trying to think of a solution, but she knew that everyone was waiting for her to speak. It’s because she’s the project manager of the strategy departme
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 83: Sapphire's Task
IN THE REMINGTON MANSION, August has finished clicking the send button on his keyboard— which makes the proposal to be sent to Katie’s email.“Easy as pie,” he stated as he extended his arms and snapped his neck, lightly stretching it.For him, the proposal he made was a piece of cake since he had an idea about the main problem already.And he was certain that there would be another problem incoming that was just lying below the surface.He told Katie earlier that he’ll send the proposal at eleven o’clock, but he managed to finish everything at ten. Maybe he had overestimated the problem too much.Or maybe, he just had knowledge of something others didn’t know about, and that’s why he found everything easy.'With power and connections, I was able to do anything I wanted,' he said at the back of his mind.After a minute, Katie replied.Katie: I always have a hunch whether a proposal is good or not. That’s my talent. And I think this is one of them!A sly smirk showed on August’s face a
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 84: Black Velvet Box
AS SOON AS she recovered from her shock, Sapphire suddenly took her burner phone, which she hides in her cabinet, and called one of her people— Theo, her private investigator.After a few rings, the man on the other line answered.“Greetings, young mistress.”Theo is a middle-aged man who worked with Sapphire in exchange for the protection Sapphire was giving him. He is wanted all over the country for a crime he didn’t even do. With Sapphire’s help and influence, he was able to fake his own death, create a new identity, and live his life to the fullest.That’s why he’ll always feel indebted to Sapphire, and he’ll follow her commands, no matter what that is.Without him knowing, Sapphire was indebted to him, too. Because of him, Sapphire now knew where to focus her attention— Who was the real oppressor, and who was just framed up."The email you sent me." Sapphire looked again at the photos attached to the email. For a moment, she couldn't believe her eyes. "Is this true?""Of course,
Rise of Power: Return of The Pathetic Commoner Chapter 85: The Mausoleum
AS AUGUST and Charles ended their conversation, the time went fast, and it was already seven o’clock in the morning. Sapphire was continually banging on his door, telling him to prepare faster as she needed to leave early because she had tons of things to do, especially the problem with the product recall.If only Sapphire could leave early to work, she would. But Charles made it a habit for the Remington family members to go to the company together. She found that habit weird, especially when it’s the rule maker— Charles— who disobeys that rule sometimes. There are times that Charles leaves early in the morning without her knowing.However, she couldn’t complain. At least, not with Charles.“Aren’t you done preparing?” Sapphire asked, slightly annoyed while standing in front of his door. “I need to leave! Father and I are waiting!”“Sorry,” August apologized sincerely. “Wait for me for a minute.”As he was done preparing, he stared at his large vertical mirror for the last time. Hi
