Maya immediately invited Thiago's wife and daughter to talk in the black sedan. Dylan agreed to Maya's request as he thought it would be pretty dangerous to talk outside.Dylan entered by sitting in the front seat, while Maya sat in the back passenger seat along with Thiago's wife and six-year-old daughter.The mother and daughter's expressions were distressed, with their breathing ragged and their heads constantly turned to the right and left. Thiago's wife seemed to be ensuring the place was safe, as did Thiago's daughter, who was forced to accept this."You don't need to worry. There's no one here to—"Dylan's eyes narrowed sharply when he looked to the right, precisely to Thiago's neighbour's house, which Dylan had been suspicious of yesterday. Now, someone was coming out of the house with an axe, two people with axes."I knew it. There was something strange in that house," Dylan explained.Maya grabbed her handy talky and called t
Thiago's little family was delighted with the way Dylan had treated them. A new home hoping to escape the Monarch family's threats was now on display before them.Thiago's wife was endlessly grateful for what Dylan had done for her. Dylan smiled broadly. It was the least he could do to save his friend.One unit had already been purchased for $300,000. For Sullivan, that wasn't much money considering the many businesses that were always making money for the family, either from company profits or stock dividends.They walked into the house to find it fully furnished and luxurious, up to date. That's what makes this unit so much higher than the others, the furniture being one of them."From now on, you don't have to return to the house in that place. You can live here and start a new life without the threat of Monarch," Dylan said."This is far beyond what I expected, Mr. Dylan. I don't know how to thank you," Thiago's wife explained."I did al
"What? Quit Monarch?" asked Thiago, surprised to hear such a thing."I'm asking you to do that because I've heard everything from your wife. Tell me honestly, do you know who kidnapped you?" asked Dylan.Thiago gasped with a beating heart, his eyes occasionally looking at his wife, who was currently sitting beside him. Thiago's woman nodded slowly and smiled broadly.It was a sign that she had told Dylan about the kidnapping case yesterday. So, Thiago didn't have to wonder how Dylan knew about yesterday's incident."You don't need to be angry at your wife. It's not a disgrace that you need to cover up. They're after you because they suspect you're in cahoots with the people behind the demonstration," Dylan explained."They di
Dylan and Richard were seen walking down in the elevator, Maya standing between them to make sure. They arrived with the elevator doors open, bringing Robert and Melissa's attention to the elevator.They spontaneously stood up straight, smiling widely in their formal attire; suits and shirts. Richard came to greet them warmly, although the old man already knew the reason for Robert and Melissa's arrival as representatives of the Watson family coming to the place."Sorry to welcome you in casual suits, I didn't expect you to come," Richard responded, smiling broadly with both of the man's eyes fixed on the two people."Previously, people who wanted to meet me always made an appointment first. The Watson family is the first family that always comes unexpectedly," Richard said. The man's harsh words made Maya unable to hide the shock on the woman's face. Maya returned her focus by staring at the two representatives of the Watson family who had come to visit.Dylan himself sat on the lon
Richard returned to the Sullivan residence, leaving Dylan alone with Maya outside the house. Dylan's eyes were still fixed ahead, precisely at Sullivan's compound gates, which had begun to close after being opened to let the Watson family representatives leave."Do you think what I said is a good idea?" asked Dylan.Maya had the capability to analyze well. The woman knew very well what was good and bad for Dylan. The idea of agreeing to Watson's request was one that Maya thought was a good thing to do."I think it's a good idea. With Sullivan allowing this traineeship, their suspicions against us could fade away," Maya replied."Not only that, with the employees being trained by Sully Corp employees, their skills are expected to increase Monarch's revenue," Maya added."With Monarch's reputation on the rise, it will work in your favor when you take their shares completely," Maya continued.Dylan cleared his throat at that. Taking complete ownership of Monarch was his ultimate objectiv
Dylan walked away from the Sullivan residence after saying goodbye to Richard and Louis. Louis initially prevented Dylan from leaving, but Richard allowed him to because Dylan was on important business.In the end, Louis complied with Richard's wishes. The two of them returned to enjoy dinner without Dylan; it had been several days since they had dinner together.The door to the Sullivan residence opened with Dylan walking out, followed by Maya. The woman was quite confused about what Dylan was about to do, considering he had not told her about his plans to leave that night."Where exactly are you going? Wilson? Or Thiago?" asked Maya, curious."Neither," Dylan replied.He continued walking through the Sullivan residence's front yard until the man's footsteps stopped before the closed car garage. He pressed a button on the side of the garage, and it opened, revealing a row of luxury cars, mostly sedans and SUVs.There were only a few luxury sports cars, about four in total. Dylan had
"I'm glad you like it," Dylan said.The man began to stretch his right hand forward, touching the back of Maya's hand, which gave a small vibration in Dylan's body and heart. The eyes of the two people who were in love looked at each other meaningfully, deep affection clearly engraved on the lines of their faces.For some people they had just met and couldn't possibly already have feelings of affection for each other. However, what happened was beyond what anyone could predict. The affection that Dylan shows is like a breaker of many people's predictions about Maya's cold and unbreakable attitude.Dylan, who served as Maya's superior, established his position as the man she loved within a few days of their meeting. Maya had never felt such a loving feeling. She felt like a completely normal woman who wanted to be lo
***The next day.In accordance with Richard's earlier wishes, he and Louis invited Dylan to go to Sully Corp. Not only to introduce Dylan to the employees in the advertising department, but Richard also wanted Dylan to help him select the employees who would become mentors to be sent to Monarch.Dylan was already informed of the schedule. As a result, he looked well-prepared with a black suit and a vest clinging to his clothes, a white shirt with black trousers. Maya arrived at the place around seven in the morning, ready with her long, flowing hair and the black blouse and knee-length skirt she wore.She knocked lightly on Dylan's bedroom door, behaving like an average bodyguard even though the two had had an intimate dinner last night. Dylan looked back precisely at t
