The person standing beside Winter looked uneasy and then spoke to Winter. "Miss Winter, that male model you're with seems to be being bullied by Mr. Alden. Aren't you going to do him a favor?" the staffer glanced repeatedly at Joshua. They were only 30 feet away.

Winter glanced over, and then she shrugged her shoulders lazily. "No need to worry about him."

The staffer was startled by Winter's words and then spoke again. "Miss Winter, you should know the rumors about Mr. Alden. That man often emphasizes to new models about his status, and also, he often makes others give up immediately." The staff had a heavy voice. It was not only her who thought that way because others also nodded their heads.

Winter chose to sit down to let her make-up artist quickly fix her hair. "You guys don't know her. I know she has a terrible ability." Winter smiled instead while touching her lips with her index finger.

At the same time, Alden felt angry. He withdrew his hand repeatedly but found it difficult

It was a place that was rarely visited by ordinary people because people who ate at this place would usually make reservations a month in advance.But with Winter's position, she could make a reservation as soon as possible, even when they had just arrived.The two people had only half eaten their food. And Joshua stopped his meal. "This is going to be something dangerous. Your position is in an unpleasant state, Winter."The people who had business with them focused more on Winter. The figure of the heiress of the Western family was not heard of at all. There were many rumors about it happening.Winter looked at Joshua. He looked relaxed. "Yes, I know about that, but it doesn't matter. Are you underestimating me, Joshua?" she even put both hands under her chin, watching Joshua, who immediately shook his head. She was calm..."Be careful." Joshua had received very important documents regarding the file that Winter had given hi

    Victor was so surprised by what Joshua said. He didn't expect such a sentence to come out of his saviour's mouth, so his eyes didn't blink at Joshua. "Are you seriously saying something like that?"Joshua, who was sitting casually in front of him, nodded once slowly. "Absolutely. There is something I want to do." His eyes were filled with a conviction that made Victor realize that this was not just a joke."You are free to do whatever you want, I will protect you from behind." Victor finally spoke as he bowed respectfully to Joshua in front of him.Joshua nodded once regarding that. Now, he wanted to take place quietly, and regarding the figure, he wanted to meet immediately. Not long after, at night, he had worn the clothes of a servant here, using a black vest and a white shirt.His goal was to see his enemy for himself, he was going to approach his enemy. Now he put down the alcoholic drink and was just ordered by Julian Gerall. The man looked so enthusiastic in playing the cards i

    Someone stopped Joshua's footsteps when he was just about to enter a restaurant, and that someone was Charles, a man he had met at a party he went to.Look for a smile. "I didn't expect to meet you, the one who had a conflict with Ramon." he greeted with a quite friendly version. She extended her handWhile Joshua, who was beside her then, welcomed the hand. "Yes. How come you're here?" He spoke calmly in reply to his interlocutor's words.Charles looked to his right side. "Of course, there's some business here. I'm meeting with a client. How about you?" He was really being friendly, different from the other people.Since he had been watching Joshua, although his eyes looked calm from top to bottom, he had known that Joshua could afford to wear expensive things. Being in this restaurant also showed that he had money to spend, but something was bothering him about the information of the man in front of him. So he wanted to get closer and know more."I want to go there." Joshua headed t

    A person who feels weak will find ways to emphasize that he is strong, so he will always raise his voice and say nonsense. Especially if he is a person who believes he is at the top. Too much praise can make a person complacent and forget the truth, so they do something strange.As Melani did now, she did not accept the statement said by Joshua. She was still so angry even though she had done something she wanted earlier. "I'm not stupid at all. You're the one who can't think properly about who I am. I've given you the advantage, but you ignored it." The woman emphasized her sentence repeatedlyShe really wanted to get an award from this man in front of her, if she couldn't get a man she wanted, she felt uncomfortable about it."This shirt you wet is worth 2 million dollars, and you ruined it. So replace it." Joshua, who spoke back, looked at the woman with a cold, piercing look. The words that came from Joshua's mouth stirred the woman's heart.Two million dollars was so much money a

"That's how it should be; the men will treat me gently because they know I'm a beautiful woman." Melani was still agonizing over what had just happened to her.She touched her cheeks, then forced herself to smile. "Yeah, I don't need to think about it because it'll only make me unlucky later." Melani tried to forget the previous incident.She stepped with a smile to thicken the charm that would make others like her even more, and then one of her professors appeared in front of her.

    "Peter," Joshua called out to his servant, who was far from him. Peter looked up at his Master, prepared for whatever orders his Master was about to give."What is it, Master?" His tone was always polite and respectful."I'm going to the docks. You finish the job." Joshua stood up. He quickly grabbed his coat and passed Peter. The servant already knew what Joshua was going to do.Joshua often did something that was not like a normal dock at a certain time. Peter who always received orders from his Master nodded, he did not ask further what his Master did not want to talk about.The man's perch had finally disappeared from Peter's sight. The old man immediately did the work as ordered by his Master. As for Joshua, he drove the car at a moderate speed until he arrived at the dock.The wind was strong enough to touch his skin. He used sunglasses to make the sunlight reflected from the ocean less glaring in his eyes. "It's been a while since I've been here." He strolled towards one of the

    Joshua wasn't affected by Angelica's words at all. She was the one who started the whole thing before him. She was just doing the same thing she did with everyone else she wanted to conflict with.Didn't he have to give back to those ignorant people who tried to bring him down? After all, he knew about his strength and abilities that exceeded those who were trying to bring him down."How can you treat a woman so rudely!? You should act like a gentleman." Angelica hardened her voice, her jaw quite hard due to the emotions exploding within her.Joshua placed his hands on the table, watching the woman in front of him. "Aren't you so weird for thinking I would treat you well when you did something to me badly?" Joshua emphasized his words. He was calm and showed that this was all the beginning because of the woman in front of him.But even though he had said something like that, it didn't make her realize what was going on. Instead, she seemed to be upset and hurt by the words said by the

    Of course, the two men did not accept what had just happened. They wanted justice, and they thought that justice was to fulfill what they said."Can't you understand what I'm saying properly?" Thomas emphasized his words while staring at the servant who came to meet them.But the waiter didn't budge, showing a flat expression in the face of these two shameless people. And that made Angelica finally grin again. "I finally figured out why he's so insolent. It's because all the waiters here are so poorly qualified, they can't serve the customers properly." Angelica emphasized her sentence. She looked at the people who were watching her and tried to influence their minds.Thomas embraced his lover tightly. "What you said is true, dear. I'm pretty sure that if they're stupid waiters who can't do a good job, then the business here will immediately destroy their stupidity."The look in their eyes was quite sharp as they said such things, two people who were still unaware of the status they h

    Joshua stared frantically, worry engulfing him as he paced back and forth in front of the delivery room. He had waited a long time, but labour was taking longer than expected. She had never been this nervous in her entire life, but right now, she couldn't control herself and stay calm.Cold sweat dripped from her forehead, made worse by her heavy breathing. "Why are they taking so long? What exactly are they doing?" He knew that inside, people were busy assisting Winter's labour.Peter, who had also just arrived there about 45 minutes ago with Joshua, watched his boss anxiously but remained calm. "Maybe they will call you sir soon."Right after hearing Peter's words, from inside the operating room came the sound of a baby crying, which made Joshua instantly freeze in place with his retinas fully opened.He immediately looked at Peter. "Did you hear that sound?" he made sure it wasn't his hallucination.Peter nodded, and their gazes shifted to the open door of the operating room, where

    "Hey, you," Joshua called out to the pair that had won first place in last year's rowing race. "I hope you guys won't give up on me. Let's compete fairly," Joshua continued.The pair nodded their heads in unison. They seemed optimistic that they would win this match. Especially when they heard about the fantastic prize offered by the President.The local people who had been gossiping were amazed. Although they had initially underestimated the President and the First Lady, they immediately changed their minds when they heard what Joshua had just said."Did you hear our President clearly? He said three times. Wow, we can be rich in the blink of an eye," said a man with a bald head."I didn't expect our President to be able to diffuse and calm the situation like that. I will register myself and my wife immediately. I don't want to miss this golden opportunity," said a man in a casual suit."Ha? What did the President say? Triple? That means six million dollars? Well, I can't let this pri

It is no mistake that the people of this country want you as their leader," Peter said.It was already the second week after the political troubles that had shaken the kingdom of Eranda."I will raise your salary, Peter," Joshua laughed.They were in the car that would take them to the state Palace because today was a historic day for Joshua as he would be sworn in as president to replace the dethroned Wiliam."You are the best, Master," Peter said proudly with a smile full of happiness.

Those who had problems with Western's family could not move.The number of people supporting Joshua is increasing, and his stock is also growing. As Eranda's nobles wanted, they believed Joshua would replace President William to lead Phrea."Our president turned out to be a cold-blooded killer. How could he say such horrible things? The ministers under him were the same. They have no conscience at all," said one of the people.The people were gathering. They seem to be in a group and are endlessly discussing this issue. Many of them were supportive of Joshua, but some were restraining."We must give full voting rights so that Lord Joshua can immediately take Wiliam's place," said another."I will also do the same. Only Mr. Joshua is capable of leading our country. If Mr. Joshua can reveal the dark case that the political elites have covered up, I believe Mr.

    "Master, you've been in there too long."Joshua opened his eyes when he heard the servant's voice from outside. The man who was soaking in the warm water in the bathtub sighed heavily. Joshua got up. He then washed his burly body and covered it with his usual white bathrobe.Joshua came out of the bathroom, his hair still half-dry, making beads of water drip down his head. The maid quickly handed him a small towel and helped Joshua to dry his hair."Have you prepared everything I asked for?" Joshua asked."That's it, Master."Joshua took over the small towel. He then walked to a sofa directly facing the glass wall that showed the beauty of the outside world.When Joshua was seated on the sofa, the waiter quickly handed him a cup of hot tea. Joshua took a sip of the tea and returned it to the waiter."Give me the tablet," Joshua said, asking for his electronic device."I'm sure you'll like today's hot news, Master." The waiter said confidently as he handed over the 14-inch flat object.
