It was early in the morning when Henry and Lily were packing. They ended the trip earlier than they should have to prepare for the emerald group's mega project meeting."Honey, I'm sorry if my work made our vacation end early."Henry shook his head softly. A faint smile was etched on his face, with his arms wrapped tightly around Lily's waist, Henry said that he didn't mind it."We can continue our vacation another time, dear. After this project is over, we can go somewhere more interesting than Paradise Island."Lily smiled fondly; in recent times, her husband had always given her wonderful surprises.Seeing his wife being so cute, Henry couldn't help but pull Lily into his arms.Some moment later, the two of them exited from the hotel. The bodyguard that Oliver Wood had assigned was waiting in the lobby. Upon seeing Henry and Lily's arrival, the bodyguard bowed and opened the car door."Please come in, Sir and Madam."Henry smiled and nodded and explained to Lily that the person who
The woman's arrival made Henry and Lily ignore Johan as if he was not there. Henry greeted her arrival with a faint smile while Lily looked so enthusiastic that she put her arm around the girl’s shoulders."My sweet lady, I've been looking for you." Lily put her arms around the woman, looking from head to toe. "You look different from the last time we met."The woman smiled sweetly. The twinkle in her eyes suggested that she was very happy to see Lily. "Miss, how are you? Did you have a good vacation?""Very, very nice! My husband can make me smile every time. It's just that..." Lily's face suddenly changed. It went from being very happy to looking annoyed."It's just what, Miss?" the woman asked curiously."It's just that there are some annoying flies and mites that annoy me. You know, it's really annoying."The woman clasped Lily's hands together as she said, "Miss, there's no need to ignore their annoying presence. Look... there is a husband who is always willing to give you happin
Finally, Lily and the girl agreed to keep quiet and let Henry take care of the problem with Johan Morris. Johan, who was still angry, vented everything to Henry, with the aim of bringing Henry's pride down as hard as possible."Besides being poor, you are also an idiot. I'm sure you're the most pathetic of all the Wilson family's sons-in-law!"Henry smiled slightly. "Maybe in your eyes I am very pitiful. However, do you know, in my eyes you are more pathetic than me. Do you know why?"Johan narrowed his eyes, while Henry's smile grew wider. "Because with your high status you still have trouble finding your true love, losing to me who you think is pathetic. Seems there are no women who want to be with you? Perhaps you have a problem with yours."Johan had just opened his mouth but before he could speak, Karen had already arrived with a man named Harris, the manager."Mr. Harris, this is Mr. Johan who would like to complain."Harris nodded in understanding and again ignored Karen before
Henry released his embrace from Lily and called Harris over in a commanding tone, "Harris, come here, please."Harris, who had learned to respect Henry, didn't feel uncomfortable with the way he was addressed and immediately bowed in acknowledgment."What do you need, Mr. Henry?" Harris asked respectfully."I'd like to treat everyone to lunch today," Henry announced.Harris grew nervous upon hearing Henry's words. "I'm sorry, Mr. Henry, but the food bill may be quite large. For your own benefit, I don't think it's wise to do so.""Don't worry about the bill," Henry reassured him. "I'll cover the cost for everyone here, except for Johan Morris, of course, ha ha ha."Some of the passengers on the yacht cheered up when they heard Henry's plan to pay their entire food bill."Mr. Henry, don't forget about the wine!""Ah yes, doesn't the restaurant on this ship have high quality wine?!"Henry laughed again then shouted loudly to everyone, "Alright, let's drink together to celebrate Johan Mo
Henry woke up early in the morning and noticed his hand was sore from being used as a pillow by Lily all night. Despite this, he couldn't bear to move her head and gazed at her innocent sleeping face. Eventually, he gave her a sweet peck on the cheek."Um... Honey ...." Lily mumbled with her eyes closed."Time to get up. You have work this morning, remember?" Henry continued to kiss his wife's soft scent. "There's a meeting at the Emerald Group."Lily slowly opened her eyes. "Ah... It's morning already? Why does time fly by so quickly?" she complained, hissing and wishing she could still curl up on Henry's body.Lily who was still in Henry's arms got a peck on the lips from her husband."Good morning, honey.""Morning."Henry pulled back the blanket that covered both of their bodies. Fighting hard against laziness, both of them got up to shower and get ready. It was going to be Lily's first day meeting with the Emerald Group's top ranks, of course, Lily couldn't make the fatal mistake
Roggie smiled wryly and replied to Henry's ramblings. "It's precisely because a person with my capacity requires extraordinary effort to buy house here, it's certain that a person like you won't be able to buy a house from Seven Star real estate even if you've saved your money for a lifetime.""You're saying that because your abilities are very limited. Stop showing off how pathetic you are or people will make fun of you!" Henry retorted, grinning widely at Roggie.In the end, the commotion between Henry and Roggie was heard inside the Seven Star Real Estate marketing office and attracted the attention of several people.A young man in a neat suit came out because he was curious toward this commotion. He met the two. When he saw one of the people making a scene, he was so surprised. He then greeted one of that people he knew well – Roggie."Hey Roggie, I hear you've been promoted to be manager at your company, huh? Ah, I can't believe I have a potential customer today!"He was Derry,
"Buying the most expensive house from Seven Star Real Estate? Ha ha, looks like that guy is going crazy!"Henry's words made Roggie laugh out loud. He couldn't understand why a poor man like Henry kept thinking himself capable of doing things beyond his limits. Was it because he had been bullied so much by the Wilson family that Henry was now experiencing symptoms of insanity?Or, did Henry have some kind of accident before he came to this place?"Henry, before you came to this place did you hit your head on an electric pole? Or was your mind short-circuited from being submerged in flood water? How can you mindlessly say that you can afford the most expensive property, even for the cheapest property price in here, you won't be able to buy even if you have saved for a lifetime!"Before Henry could answer Roggie’s humiliation, Derry came forward and tapped Anthony on the shoulder. "Hey, Anthony, do you know why your career is slow and your commissions are always low? Ha ha, it's because
Henry shook his head slowly after hearing Anthony's explanation. Henry thought that the house that had just been offered isn’t fit to his expectation.The people who were watching them both shook their heads slowly. The house Anthony had just offered was one of the cheapest houses in Seven Star real estate."He's not interested because he doesn't have the money to buy it."Anthony who saw Henry's response was also quite surprised. 'Does Mr. Henry not have enough money? Ah what a fool I am.'Therefore, Anthony immediately made another offer in the form of discounted prices for several types of cheap houses. Actually, there were no discounts for the houses mentioned by Anthony because they were already priced quite low for Seven Star Real Estate. However, in order to get sales, Anthony was willing to budget 50% of his commission bonus to be used as a discount if Henry was willing to accept his offer."Are you interesting to these discounted houses, Mr. Henry?" asked Anthony after he had
