Elena rushed to prepare for the office that morning. In the midst of her hurried steps, she was surprised to see Leon, who looked so relaxed.“Leon, didn't you go to work this morning?” Elena asked with a frown."I'll be on shift this afternoon," Leon answered while sipping his cup of hot chocolate."Okay." Elena put on her jacket while talking. “You know, today the heir will come to visit the office. Everyone is excited for his arrival.”"Oh really?" Leon responded.Elena nodded. "Yes, of course. They are very happy that the heir wants to visit the office because he has never visited them before. It seems the heir is only focused on working in Auckland.”Leon was silent when he heard Elena's words. He thought not to meet Elena there.Seeing that there was no response from her husband, Elena walked towards the door."Okay, dear, I have to go now. See you later!" said Elena while waving her hand without looking at Leon.“See you, my dear, be careful!” Leon replied while waving his hand
The flash camera caught Elora, who was posing while holding several brand products belonging to Anastasia Braun that were soon to be launched. She was the brand's ambassador."Okay, done!" said the cameraman while lowering the camera. Elora sighed as she took off her 10 cm high heels, which made her feet red and sore. She walked over to the shooting team to see her photos.“How's the photo? Is it good?" Elora asked.“Yes, it's totally great! I'm sure Miss Anastasia will be very happy to have you as a brand ambassador," they praised Elora."I hope so," said Elora, smiling proudly.Elora's assistant approached and whispered to Elora. "Miss Elora, the photo shoot is finished now, right?" she asked.Elora nodded. "Yes, everything is finished," she answered as she stepped away from the team.Elora's assistant had received a message from Edward saying that he was waiting at the hotel where Elora would be staying tonight. Edward had prepared a surprise there. Therefore, Elora's assistant wa
Quincy walked towards the employee dining room, and he heard a woman exclaiming and calling his name."Quincy, wait!"Quincy recognized the woman's voice. He stopped and turned to Elena, who rushed over to him."Quincy, how are you today?" Elena asked as they continued their steps.“I'm fine, and you?” Quincy responded.“I'm fine too. How about yesterday's event? Did you manage to meet the heir?” Elena looked at Quincy with a curious gaze."Yesterday's event went well, and the heir liked our welcome," Quincy answered."So, have you met him?"Quincy nodded. "Of course." But Quicny's expression didn't seem to show any joy. He was still thinking about the heir's face, which was so similar to Elena's husband's. They exactly looked like the same person.Seeing Quincy's strange expression, Elena frowned. "Are you okay?""Yeah, I'm okay," said Quincy with a reassuring smile. "Hmm, Elena, may I know what your husband does?" Quincy asked hesitantly.“He works in a restaurant as a waiter; somet
The shopkeeper approached the supervisor and stopped the action. "Sir, but I don't think you should be careless in calling the police before he is proven to have stolen," she said.The supervisor lowered his cell phone from his ear with a sigh. He looked at the shopkeeper in annoyance. "Didn't you see that he was proven to have stolen the ring?""Yes, I see, sir. But we can check the CCTV footage to see whether he actually stole it or not.”“Yeah, you're right. We'd better check the CCTV first," another shopkeeper chimed in.The supervisor wanted to prevent them from checking the CCTV, but all the shopkeepers present agreed to the decision. He was silent and let them check the CCTV footage. “What are they going to do with the CCTV? Besides, I also turned it off earlier," the supervisor muttered, grinning.Leon didn't feel guilty at all because he didn't steal the ring. Two shopkeepers watched him so he wouldn't run away.Not long after, the shopkeeper on duty, checking CCTV footage, r
"Welcome, Mr. Alessandro.”Leon turned his body to face them. He believed the man the employees referred to as Mr. Alessandro was an important person in this shop. He walked over to him."Excuse me."Leon's voice made Alessandro turn his head to look at him. He saw Leon carrying a paper bag with the shop's brand name on it, so he immediately identified Leon as a customer. Alessandro smiled friendly at Leon."Is there anything we can do to help, sir?"Leon glanced at the supervisor, and the man looked uneasy looking at Leon.“This is my first time going to this shop, but I got very bad service. While I was shopping, suddenly he deliberately put a ring in my bag. He also deliberately turned off the CCTV camera," said Leon while pointing at the supervisor.Alessandro looked confused when he heard Leon's accusation. "Sorry, sir, but he is the supervisor at this shop. He couldn't have put the ring in your bag," he responded.Leon snorted. “But the truth is, he actually did it. He has a gru
Edward and Elora were at a restaurant having lunch while discussing their wedding. Elora's gaze seemed fixated on her iPad."Edward, what do you think if I choose this theme?" Elora asked while showing a picture of the venue on her iPad.Edward looked at the picture, then responded, "I don't think it's suitable, but if you like it, we can choose it."Elora's expression suddenly turned sullen. She sighed as she went back to choosing other themes."I told you if you like it, we can choose it," said Edward."I'd better look for something you like better," replied Elora.Max came to the restaurant to meet Edward. Wilhelm asked Max to talk to Edward about the company's new project.Seeing Max's arrival, Edward and Elora looked up at him."Sorry if I disturb you, but Uncle asked me to meet you," said Max with a small smile."You can sit down, Max," Edward ordered.Max took his seat between Edward and Elora. The atmosphere became a little awkward after Max arrived. Seeing that Elora was busy
Edward pulled a chair and sat in it, but his eyes were still glued to Chelsea's table.Elora noticed Edward looking at another woman, then rebuked him.“Ehem! Can't you just stop looking at her for a second?” Elora quipped.Edward immediately turned his gaze to Elora in panic. "I'm sorry, I just—" He looked confused, and his mind suddenly went blank.“Elora, I—”Elora rolled her eyes as she looked away from Edward. She was angry with her fiancé.“You're really annoying!” Elora complained.Max turned towards Chelsea's table to see the face of the woman who made Edward keep staring at her."I think Elora is prettier than her," Max muttered, then his gaze returned to Edward.“Elora, please forgive me. I saw her by accident, but I don't know who she is.” Edward continued to persuade Elora, but the woman didn't want to hear it.A man wearing dark glasses, a polo shirt, and matching color trousers stepped into the restaurant. He was a tall guy with an athletic body. His arrival immediately
Leon nodded his head, confirming Alessandro's question.Alessandro bowed his body and smiled at Leon, not caring that the man didn't look according to the dress code. He was very happy to see that Leon was willing to attend his birthday party.“Welcome to my party, Master. I've been waiting for you for a long time, and now I'm very happy to see you here," said Alessandro, showing his gratitude toward Leon.“But I don't want to take off my mask. If you mind, then I'll leave right away," said Leon, giving him two options."Sir, you can wear whatever you want; my party is still open for you," replied Alessandro with a smile."Thank you, Alessandro."Leon stepped into the ballroom. His arrival, walking side by side with Alessandro, immediately caught the attention of the people there. Seeing Alessandro being so respectful towards him, they could conclude that he must be a very important guest. There were many guests from high society at the party tonight, but they didn't see Alessandro gr
