"Excuse me!" Vincent said rather awkwardly."Vin! Come in, what a coincidence," Mr Eduardo invited Vincent into his office."Sir, why are you in such a hurry?" Vincent protested. Let's get straight to the topic. Coincidentally, they were discussing the arranged marriage. Perfect timing for Vincent, he thought.Milea glanced sarcastically at her fiancé-to-be. She had guessed that Vincent would do the same thing as her. Protest loudly. Because the ignorant man must have been annoyed by the sudden news."I don't think it's a rush. I've been planning it for a long time," Mr Eduardo reasoned."But sir... you know that I've been playing with projects lately," Vincent reasoned."Yes, that I know. Have you forgotten, Vin? The condition you have to fulfil for me is to marry my daughter," said Mr Eduardo, reminding Vincent again.Damn! It was true. Vincent was very upset as he recalled his conversation with Mr Eduardo the other day."You can't do that. Why didn't you ask me first?" Milea was st
Ever since Vincent tightened the office rules with his app programme, many employees have been against the new policies. They disagree, feel burdened because they are constantly monitored, uncomfortable working, and so on.There were so many reasons that the employees told Vincent. In essence, they complained."Mr Vice President, you should remove the policy. Because honestly, we feel pressured by your new rules.""That's right, Mr Vice President!""What the hell are you guys doing? Respect your superiors!" scolded Alvin, who was defending Vincent in front of the protesting employees.If it is not stopped, there will be a lot of protests against Vincent at this time. In fact, he made this new breakthrough to increase their productivity at work. Trigger their enthusiasm to be more disciplined about time. In fact, his expectations did not match the reality.Employee complaints have brought down Vincent's current position. Danger. He could be threatened with leaving the company. If their
Early in the morning, Mr Eduardo calls all the employees in the office who were involved in the massive demonstration yesterday. Those who deliberately wanted to bring Vincent down from his position had lined up neatly to face the President Director. They were just waiting to see what punishment Mr Eduardo would give them for their actions.Vincent immediately followed the President Director's room after being told by Alvin that Mr Eduardo would take firm action against the irresponsible elements. It's bad!"Who told you to protest yesterday?" asked Mr Eduardo to one of the fat men.The fat man adjusted his glasses, which had slipped off when Mr Eduardo approached him."Nothing, Mr President," the man said shakily."Just confess. We already have the evidence. You were all paid to bring Vincent down. Isn't that right?" Mr Eduardo confirmed it again as he cornered them one by one. Until the fat man stuttered and broke out in a cold sweat at his temples."It's true, sir. I don't know," t
Vincent is still investigating the secret documents hidden by Mr Eduardo. He didn't expect his benefactor to be directly involved in the unfortunate incident ten years ago that killed his parents.Vincent couldn't understand how the culprit could be Mr Eduardo. His whole body was frozen, weak, and his spirit had faded after learning Mr Eduardo's true identity."Impossible," Vincent thought. "This is crazy!"All this time, Mr Eduardo had been regarded as Vincent's saviour. The middle-aged man had done so much for him. So that he could be as great as he is nowadays. He was devastated to learn the truth.The person Vincent respected most like his own biological father, his future father-in-law, was the prime suspect in the head-on collision that killed both his parents. He pondered. He deeply regretted it now."Stupid!" Vincent blamed himself. "Why did it only come to light now?"So, that's why Mr Eduardo felt fully responsible for Vincent. The old man had unintentionally made Vincent an
Vincent left Mr Eduardo's residence this evening. He immediately drove his luxury car, then went somewhere. Damn! He looked in the rear view mirror, and a black van was following him."Mr Eduardo is still watching me," Vincent growled. He knew that the car was following him. It must be Mr Eduardo's men, he thought.Vincent picked up his wireless earphones. He immediately contacted Alvin even while focusing on driving. "Al, take my place now. They're still watching me.""Yes, sir," Alvin agreed. Vincent and Alvin had worked together before.Alvin, who had been following Vincent, immediately overtook between Vincent's car and Mr Eduardo's men. He tricked him and Vincent managed to escape the pursuit of the men in the car."Bingo!" Vincent accelerated his vehicle. Maximum speed to get to the destination quickly.Vincent was going somewhere. His parents' house was unfit for use, empty, and looked worn out. The house looked like it was about to collapse, the building was fragile as if one
Vincent was a little uncomfortable being approached by Claudia. She kept clinging to Vincent. Edmund watched the two of them. Then, he smiled.Apparently, Claudia really liked Vincent. This was the first time they had met. It was obvious from the girl's behaviour. Good, that was exactly what Edmund was aiming for. He was trying to bring his niece closer to Vincent."Vin, can you take Claudia home? I have some business tonight," Edmund excused himself. He reasoned that Vincent wanted to take his niece to her house."Oh, I see. No problem," Vincent agreed."Won't it trouble you later?" Claudia turned to Vincent."That's fine," Vincent replied.After dinner, they went their separate ways. Now, Vincent had to take Claudia to her house."Come with me!" Vincent called out. Claudia hurriedly followed behind him.Claudia was very happy when Vincent took her home. Along the way, Claudia kept chatting, engaging Vincent in conversation as he drove. There was always something to talk about. Could
"Milea ... I can't forgive your father," Vincent refused."Why?" Milea stared at Vincent, waiting for an explanation from her fiancé."I'm sorry," Vincent regretted.Vincent no longer said much. Milea must have understood because she also heard clearly when Vincent and Mr Eduardo talked face to face that night. Vincent was really disappointed when he found out the big secret Mr Eduardo had been keeping all this time. About the death of his parents.Milea understood that Vincent was hurt by the bitter truth. She also knew that it would be very difficult for her to persuade Vincent to forgive Mr Eduardo's past mistakes. However, she was also worried about herself."Then, what about me? Will our relationship also end?" asked Milea."Sorry ...." regretted Vincent.Vincent could no longer continue his conversation with Milea. Everything was clear, really. They both knew that forgiving Mr Eduardo at this point was impossible for Vincent.Milea lowered her gaze. She already knew Vincent's an
"What do you mean you fired Claudia?" Edmund pretended not to understand the meaning of Vincent's words."Your niece has behaved insolently. She's gone too far and trampled on my pride with her sneaky ways," Vincent sneered.Vincent's tone had changed. What had been formal was now casual in front of Edmund, his investor. Edmund was surprised by the drastic change in attitude Vincent had shown him.It was as if Vincent had now dared to challenge Edmund. Without hesitation, he also warned Edmund for the last time. In an elegant way."Sneaky way?" repeated Edmund.Whether Edmund knew or not, what Claudia had done to Vincent. What is clear is that Vincent still suspects those who are conspiring behind him. In the end, sooner or later Vincent would find out about their deceit."Claudia has stolen a lot of my company's confidential data. She told me that you told her to do it," Vincent said. "Is that true?""Me?" pointed Edmund to himself. He was getting ready to deny it. "I never told her
