Lady Margarita had been getting flooded with calls from eager customers inquiring about the availability of the new Rovers Luxuria at Summers Luxury Automobiles."We will have it soon. Just give us until the end of the day," she assured one caller."But I saw that you are not listed as a distributor in the news?" another caller questioned."That was a serious oversight. You know Summers Luxury Automobiles. We are always at the forefront of luxury cars," Lady Margarita replied confidently, masking her concern."Great. I will call you back at the end of the day then. Please reserve one for me," the caller requested eagerly, reassured by Lady Margarita's response.Lady Margarita was left feeling frustrated as Andre continued to ignore her calls, leaving her uncertain about how to handle inquiries regarding the availability of the luxury car. Despite her uncertainty, she reassured callers that Summers Luxury Automobiles would have the car by the end of the day.Puzzled by her company's re
Ralph had finished updating Giant Gerald on the story of his life, from his departure from the slums of Vernice to the present, yet Gerald still couldn't grasp why Ralph was concealing his newfound status—a status many would willingly flaunt."I need to prepare myself for public life. It’s not a lifestyle I'm accustomed to. Besides, I want to address my in-laws for treating me like trash all these years. It hasn't been easy living under their roof with my poor condition," Ralph explained, addressing Gerald's lingering question."I see. You have a supportive wife," Gerald remarked."Yes, but sometimes, she's torn between loyalty to her family and her love for me. I want to provide her with everything, but gradually. Let’s see how well she'll do with her new contract.""She's beautiful. She'd make a good model," Giant Gerald commended Diana's beauty."I know, right. Now, let’s talk about you. Have you been able to come up with any business ideas?" Ralph redirected the conversation to Ge
It was now evident to every member of the Summers family that the company’s name had been intentionally removed from the list of exclusive distributors of the new luxury car, disproving Lady Margarita's claim of oversight. A document delivered by a mail delivery man and also sent to the company’s email address confirmed this, further stating that Rovers Group would cease business with any Summers enterprise until further notice. Lady Margarita stared angrily at the document as if she could vent all her anger on it.“But the company will do business with Diana. How? Is she not a Summers?” She asked no one in particular. She hadn’t expected that to be the kind of contract Diana would get. Her frustration was palpable as she looked from one person to the other seeking explanation. Her family had gathered at the dining table at her summon. Obviously, Lady Margarita loved calling emergency meetings in times of trouble especially if it was bigger than her.Bridget, Wade, Bony, Wendell, Liam
“Fine. I signed the agreement in my vulnerable moment, and I have learned my lesson,” Diana admitted.“Good girl! Get the contract right away,” Lady Margarita said.The others marveled at how Lady Margarita eventually won the argument. She smiled mischievously, forgetting the bigger reason she had called the meeting. West was near tears. Her hope for a better rank in the family was about to be dashed. For once, she regretted pressuring her daughter into making such a decision.“On one condition…” Diana declared.Ralph smiled knowingly. Soon, his grandmother-in-law would have no choice but to ask him questions. The others were eager to hear the condition.“Condition? There’s no other condition attached to the agreement,” Lady Margarita clarified.“If Andre cannot keep to his vow, I have no reason to give him the contract,” Diana announced.“Andre? Vow? What vow?” Bridget asked.“Ask Ralph!” Diana replied.Lady Margarita turned to Ralph, who did not budge. She was confused about Diana’s
Two days later, Diana arrived at the headquarters of Rovers Group to submit the signed contract. Richard Anderson welcomed her into his office, where the other directors were already seated. As Diana entered, Victor couldn't conceal his contemptuous glare at Richard. He couldn't shake off the feeling that he should have been the one addressing the other directors, not Richard. Secretly, he yearned to uncover why Richard was chosen over him by Mr. R.R."I present to you the latest and the most beautiful model in town, Ms. Diana Summers," announced Richard.The others clapped, some willingly, some reluctantly. No one dared to question the criteria used in selecting Diana, who hadn't even applied for modeling at Rovers. They clapped, unsure if the anonymous boss was observing their reactions from his secret office."Emily, ensure she models the latest designs from Rovers Fashion and have the publicity team feature her pictures in the news as the newest addition to our models. In fact, pr
"What does she want?" Gerald asked."She's investigating, and she’s serious with it for her to come all the way down here on a work day. I didn't expect her to come here," Ralph replied."She's quite persistent. What's our next move?" Gerald inquired."We need to postpone the delivery. It must not arrive while she's here, or she'll put one and two together and realize the two Ralph Ross is the same person," Ralph instructed, dialing the bicycle shop's number on his phone."I won't be available to receive the delivery. Please reschedule it for another time," he informed the person on the other end before hanging up.The doorbell rang again."Is she going to stay there indefinitely?" Gerald wondered."It seems likely. She's determined, and I doubt she'll leave until she either sees someone or gives up," Ralph replied."So, we're stuck here until she leaves," Gerald concluded."Yes, she's now aware of you, and she's suspicious of me. I can't risk her discovering my true identity. I'll ne
Summers Luxury Automobiles was anything but serene as Bridget drove onto the premises. Determined to reach Andre through one of the workers who had been relaying messages, she felt the weight of Lady Margarita's ultimatum hanging over her. “If that boy doesn't show his face in this mansion within 48 hours, he can kiss his position goodbye. I'll reinstate a more competent Summers to deal with the mess we're in!” Lady Margarita's threat rang in Bridget's ears, urging her to find Andre at any cost. She couldn't bear the thought of Lionel or Liam taking Andre's place. Despite her efforts to track his whereabouts, Andre remained elusive. He ignored her calls and even hung up when she tried calling from a hidden number. She was not aware of any girlfriend of his. Sometimes, she wondered if he would never bring a girl home. He seemed determined to remain hidden. Frustrated, Bridget muttered to herself, “That boy is as stubborn as his useless father,” as she hurried out of her car to invest
Diana was recounting her first day at Rovers Fashion to Ralph when West stormed in as usual. “Mom, can you please stop barging into our room like this? It’s an invasion of our privacy,” Diana complained. “I can’t enter my daughter’s room now? Is that what you’re saying?” West countered. “This isn’t just my room, it’s my husband’s and mine. There should be boundaries,” Diana insisted. “I see why you’re talking to me like that. You’re the boss now, fine. But don’t forget to buy me the Elysian Diamond Necklace you got for your grandmother when you receive your first paycheck. It’s my turn to enjoy,” West said. “Mom, are you even sure her first paycheck will be enough for such an expensive necklace?If you are not careful, you will make her broke again.” Ralph interjected. “Is it your money? I’m speaking to my daughter, not you. And Diana, you have to deal with that little loser in your tummy before Lady Margarita exposes you as she promised today. Please don’t let them win. We can’t
