Arnold opened his mouth and was about to explain, but the supervisor interrupted him.“Shut up! I don’t need your explanation!” The woman glared at Arnold. She approached Daisy and pulled her hand. “Come on Daisy, bring your food! You can eat it later after this event is over!” she ordered.Daisy had no words to defend herself; instead she was following the supervisor’s orders. She felt guilty for leaving work to have lunch with Arnold. However, Daisy dared to leave her work for a moment because the number of staff on duty was more than needed, so she thought a short lunch would not lead her to a trouble.She left there with her gaze looking at Arnold. A smile played on her lips.Arnold stared at Daisy’s departure while sighing heavily. With a bad mood, he finished his food.After lunch, Arnold continued his activities to look at the objects in the exhibition; who knows if there was something that caught his attention that made him want to buy it?He walked around the exhibition with
The middle-aged man with an elegant appearance walked towards Arnold. His hand touched Arnold’s shoulder while giving him a reassuring smile, as if hinting Arnold not to worry about this matter.“Mr. Felix, do you know this man?” Massimo asked in disbelief.Massimo and his daughter were VIP customers of Haute Couture Boutique, so they knew Felix Thomson well.Felix’s gaze shifted to Massimo, then he nodded in acknowledgement. “Yes, I know him very well. I saw you were angry with him; is there a problem?” He asked in a calm but firm voice.Massimo’s expression turned angry as he began his explanation. “He has molested my daughter! He deliberately looked at her chest and acted like it was nothing bad. I don’t care if he is close to you, sir, but I think you are a wise man to be able to judge who is at fault here.”With a calm face, Felix looked at Arnold. Before he could ask, Arnold had spoken first.“Mr. Felix, I swear that I didn’t mean to look at her chest. I was just surprised to se
Arnold was taken aback upon hearing Felix's explanation. If the Pink Star Diamond ring really belonged to his late father, then not only Felix was ambitious to get it, but Arnold had the same determination. "We must get the ring, sir!" Arnold said excitedly. A man in his early 50s came out of a room and stood next to the box where the diamond ring was placed. When he came there, the guards around him immediately bowed their bodies to salute him. Judging from his aura and the behavior of the people around him, he was definitely a big shot. The man was Morgan Roussel, a conglomerate who loved collecting luxury goods. There were many collections of vintage and rare items with fantastic value from him. At this event, he gave the opportunity for rich people to have the Pink Star Diamond ring that he had owned for the past 25 years. "Wow, that is Morgan Roussel! I didn't expect to meet him here. This event is indeed extraordinary; even someone like him is holding an auction here." "The
Arnold waited in front of the auction section while Felix made his way to Morgan’s room. Before Felix entered, Arnold offered Felix to take his card, but Felix refused. Arnold planned to offer back 300 million dollars to replace Felix’s money after he officially got the diamond ring.A female staff with the Pink Star Diamond ring in her hand walked in front of Morgan and Felix to escort them to the room. She opened the door and gestured her hands politely towards two chairs. She placed the diamond ring on the table, then pulled the chairs for the two men, then she stood in front of them.A bright smile played on Morgan’s face because he had gotten the right bidder for his diamond ring, which was so precious to him. For Morgan, not only was money a requirement for bidders for his valuables, but he also wanted his collection to fall into the right hands. That was why he had rejected Arnold from the start, because he didn’t want people with unclear origins to get the chance to transact w
Arnold was taken aback. Three hundred million dollars was not a small amount, so he insisted on returning the money to Felix.“Oh sir, but that is a big sum, and you don’t even have the ring. So please let me return it to you,” Arnold insisted.Just like Arnold, Felix also insisted on his decision. “No, Arnold! I really didn’t ask for the money!” he spoke in a firm voice.Arnold sighed then smiled touched by Felix’s kindness. “Thank you very much, Mr. Felix. You have spent a lot of money just to help me.” Not only did he give the ring for free to Arnold, but Felix had also previously issued a 100,000-dollar shopping voucher to be given to Alexia Bianchi as a form of apology on Arnold’s behalf.A smile formed on Felix’s lips. He placed his hand on Arnold’s shoulder as he spoke. “Arnold, that money is nothing compared to all your father’s kindness to me. He was a hero to the Thomson family. If I am rich now, it is because of his help. I owe to him.” Felix’s voice trailed off at the last
Daisy frowned. “Work somewhere else? But where? I’ve applied to many companies, but until now I haven’t received a single interview call.” She paused, then with a slight look down, she continued. “And I also didn’t finish college because of financial reasons.” She hid the sadness in her eyes behind her lowered face. Arnold understood how it felt to have difficulty getting a job because of a lack education. Even though many people who were not highly educated had adequate skills, people would still doubt them. That was what Arnold felt when the bastard Aderwin family didn’t want him to get a decent education. Arnold had to live a miserable life doing manual labor all his life. “It doesn’t matter, Daisy!” he said encouragingly. Daisy looked up with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.“I’ll help you get the job. If you didn't finish college, I even didn't finish my junior high school,” he chuckled slightly. “Seriously?” Daisy was taken aback. A hint of disbelief played on her face. Arnold
Daisy’s jaw dropped, but she still couldn’t believe the information she heard. It felt like a dream to her when a manager from a big company suddenly contacted her and told her that she had officially become a hotel manager.She slapped her cheeks to wake herself up if she was dreaming, but in fact this was reality.With a doubtful but respectful tone, Daisy spoke. “Ms. Hayes, I think you must have the wrong person. I have never applied for a job at a hotel, let alone applying as a manager.”Daisy was aware of who she was and her background. Let alone applying for a high-ranking job in companies under The Winster Group; she didn’t even have the courage to apply as a cleaner there.Isabella shook her head, although Daisy couldn’t see her gesture directly. She had made sure that the number she called was correct according to Arnold’s instructions, so there was no way she had called the wrong person.“No, Ms. Daisy. I didn’t call the wrong person. According to the order of our master, th
The next day, Daisy hailed a cab to The Wins Royal Hotel. She wore a blazer top with a knee-length skirt in the same color. She looked very beautiful with her hair loose to her shoulders. Her appearance this time looked different.Daisy's family was surprised to see Daisy's different appearance than usual. But Daisy did not tell them about what really happened. She planned to make this a surprise after she was officially appointed as a manager.In the middle of the way, there was a little doubt that enveloped her. She doubted if she would really get a job as a manager this easily.She remembered the incident a few months ago, where she was deceived by Amancio Connor, who promised her a position as a secretary at Blackpearl Luxury Realty. But after arriving there, she was forced to serve his lust.Luckily Arnold came just in time to save her. "Everything will be fine. Arnold would never do something bad to me," she muttered to herself as she rubbed her chest.The cab had stopped. Daisy
