Everyone, there was shocked, especially Karina, because she didn't feel like she had applied for a job or registered for the competition to get cooperation with Kenderick's company. William and Karina's other cousins shook their heads in disbelief at Albert's decision.They looked at Karina sharply. "Why her? She's not fit to get this cooperation. She's not even working, how could she get the project?"Steve snorted in annoyance. "Isn't this the wrong decision? The project won't work if one of the parties doesn't own the company. You seem to be mistaken." He didn't accept that Karina had just arrived and was immediately singled out."Yes, that's right. Perhaps you are wrong, sir." Karina's other cousin chimed in and doubted Albert's decision.Albert raised both hands up in a gesture ordering them to be quiet. "My decision is absolute and inviolable. Besides, I didn't just choose. Miss Karina's abilities are better than all of you.""What? How can that be?" They were all surprised to h
Dustin and Karina were shocked. Their car had stopped with a puff of smoke in front of the hood. Karina coughed, waving her hand in front of her face. Their foreheads were slightly injured from the violent impact. Dustin looked back through the glass above his head. The car that hit from behind had also experienced the same thing. There was even more black smoke than the hood of the vehicle.Dustin got out of the car, followed by Karina. Both of their legs felt weak. At the same time, the car door that hit them opened. There was a child from another prominent family, the Peterson family. The man who appeared was Enzo Peterson.Enzo coughed while waving his hands in the air. He staggered to his feet. "Hey, can't you drive well? Why are you going so slow? You're blocking my way to crash like this!"Karina approached with a furrowed brow, trying to recognize the figure in front of her due to the large amount of smoke around them. "Are you okay?"Seeing that it was Karina, Enzo, who had b
All the people who came separated them. "Stop fighting already! You'll cause a traffic jam if you continue!"Enzo did not accept this. His anger was still high. He threw away some of the people's hands that were holding him. "Let go! He's a lousy guy who drives slowly. People like him endanger others. That's why he should compensate. Look at how my car got damaged because of him. Oh, or do you not want to pay for it because you don't have any money?"Enzo, who kept looking for a defense for the citizens, annoyed Dustin. Dustin looked at Enzo sarcastically while chuckling. "Such an ugly car, of course, I can replace it easily."Enzo snorted in annoyance while rolling his eyes. "How pretentious. I can't believe it. You definitely don't have the money to compensate, right? Someone like you wouldn't be able to replace my luxurious car. Even your two months' salary at Cloa won't cover the loss. You're such a lousy person! Poor and useless! You'll be like that forever!"Dustin reached into
The party for Karina's new home, a luxury apartment in an elite neighborhood, had finally arrived. Eri and Jake were very busy preparing for the party. They even prepared the decorations, organized the room, and bought the necessary party supplies. They were so excited to welcome today's party, especially at the reaction of the Grayson family and all the people who used to always insult them. Of course, the party needed help to be separated from Dustin's intervention in providing funds and other assistance.Eri was contacting another arisan friend who had just arrived this morning from overseas. She looked happy. Even her tone of voice sounded friendly. "Yes, you should come here soon. I'm telling you that my party today is going to be extraordinary. Therefore, you must come, even if only temporarily."Many servants were helping to prepare for the party as well. Of course, they were none other than Dustin's servants, only Dustin pretended not to know them, and he told his parents-in-l
Early in the morning, Karina woke up to a flurry of notifications and messages on her phone. She reached for her phone on the nightstand and swiped at the screen. Many messages congratulated her on her new place. One of them was from Vera. Her best friend couldn't come to the event yesterday because she was out of town. Reading the message from her best friend who would come to the house today, made Karina feel happy.Karina left the room, stepping into the kitchen to make breakfast. Ten minutes later, the toast was served. Karina ate her food quietly. She looked at the door of her parents' room, which was still tightly closed. "Looks like they're still sleeping. Maybe they're tired from last night's event."After finishing breakfast, Karina played with her cell phone in the living room. At the same time, there was a knock on the door from outside. Karina immediately opened the door and it turned out to be Vera. "You're finally here. Come in!"Vera walked into Karina's new apartment.
Vera, who had apparently been waiting for Dustin to come out, immediately stepped on the gas of her car to follow Dustin. "I want to know what he's really doing. I have to follow him wherever he goes, so I can prove to Karina who her husband is."Vera deliberately kept her distance behind Dustin's car. Unknown to her, Dustin realized that Vera was following him. Dustin grinned, gradually taking another lane opposite the direction of the office. Vera followed behind until. Finally, Dustin arrived at a large mall in an elite area usually only visited by rich people.Vera's brow furrowed. She parked her car in the parking lot near Dustin's. "Why is he here? There must be some business to be done here. I have to follow him."Vera got out of the car and walked quickly, quietly approaching Dustin, who was walking alone in the parking lot towards the mall's main entrance. "Oh, what a coincidence that we meet here again. Regarding the matter earlier, I apologize for going too far. I just want
Vera was already distraught and tried to grab the waitress's body. The other salesgirl tried to restrain Vera from approaching Dustin's servant. The commotion attracted attention, causing other shop customers to leave. Only then did Dustin reveal himself, coming to them?Vera smiled happily. Vera pointed at Dustin with sparkling eyes as if seeing a guardian angel. "He'll be the witness that I didn't steal the jewelry. Even if I have to compensate him for something I didn't do, he's the one who'll compensate me because we're lovers."Dustin frowned, starting to get into the action. "What? You can't say that carelessly." Dustin glanced around, looking at everyone. "We're not lovers. She's just my wife's best friend who we met here by accident." Dustin looked back at Vera sarcastically. "You can't make up stories. If you're guilty, admit it. Don't bring other people's names into it.""What? But I didn't steal that jewelry, Dustin. Please help me." Vera pleaded with Dustin. But Dustin wal
Karina's eyes widened perfectly. She shook her head at Vera's words. "No, Dustin wouldn't do that." She had been trapped by Vera's words about Dustin. This time she didn't want to be trapped again. Vera must have done something like yesterday, Karina thought.Karina's words just now caught the attention of everyone there. They seemed to look unhappy with Karina's words. "It's clear that we saw that man sexually harassing this woman. He should just admit it instead of blaming and accusing randomly. What a disgusting man.""Hey, Miss." One of the heavyset women lifted her chin haughtily. "If that man is your husband, you should be ashamed and feel sad that your best friend is being abused by him. Instead of defending that shameful man!""That's right. Don't you have any empathy for your own best friend? What a heartless woman!" The others mocked Karina. Of course, this made Vera happy, getting defense from many people.Vera went back into action, pretending to cry and acting like she wa
