Joe looked at his wife, walking back and forth like a hot iron with steam. The woman stomped on the inn floor, staring at everything like she wanted to crush it. "It can't be like this! It's not fair! We've been living in that unit for so long!" shouted Catherine as she messed up her hair. The image of the beautiful scenery she had been enjoying had to be wiped out because the place was no longer hers.She was upset that she couldn't get the apartment she was used to and now had to stay elsewhere. The view here was not as good as in her old place. Which now belonged to Marco. And Catherine was really upset about that. Maybe she would force Marco to get out of there by dragging him if she could. But she couldn't. Her father-in-law had sold the place for a very high price.Joe then stood up and hugged his wife from behind. At first, she threw him off because she was uncomfortable and angry at the same time. "Let go of me! Don't seduce me because this is all your fault!" Resentment still
Marco noticed the interaction between Thomas and the man who had just arrived. The two seemed very close, with the line between superior and subordinate obvious. Thomas was very respectful of the man whom Marco did not recognise. Even the man bowed respectfully many times, seemingly reluctant and looking away simultaneously.The man who had just arrived was quite tall with a firm jaw. His eyes were dark brown, with a thin moustache adorning the underside of his nose. And most strikingly, there was a mole under his eye of considerable size."Sir, you are here again. You are indeed a remarkable leader," Thomas said with a wide smile. Then the man cleared his throat. "This project will become something extraordinary under your leadership."Thomas then chuckled and looked adoringly at the man who had just arrived. "I'm really happy that you're here to oversee this project. Not every leader would do that, especially in a hot, sweltering place like this."The man with a mole under his eye c
"How dare you say that!" said the man who claimed to be Marco. He was distraught after hearing what Marco said about him. With squinting eyes, the man stared at Marco with a sharp glint. What man would dare say that to him? He certainly wasn't going to stay silent. "You're just a stranger here. You're a nobody. Might as well get out of the way."With a small deheman, the man corrected his slightly tilted tie. "I've been here for a very long time. And, of course, I'm Marco. You don't need to interfere and be a know-it-all."The workers seemed to nod in agreement. This was someone who had been here all along and supervised their work. At first, the workers didn't recognize anything about the man named Marco either. But since the man pointed out that Marco was the biggest shareholder in this place, the workers started to believe him.Especially after all the rumors that Marco was the leader of this big project. All decisions belonged to that man. With the power Marco had, the workers wou
The man, whose identity was unknown, clucked loudly. His gaze became increasingly wide, and seemed to dislike Marco's existence. He felt that Marco's existence was really inconvenient for him. "Why should I bother to take my ID card? You're not an important person to be prioritized like that!""Everyone already knows me. I don't need any validation from you," the man added once more. He was really unhappy with Marco's impudence in wanting to see proof of his identity. She had come this far and didn't want to be ruined in just one day. Especially seeing the workers who had been respecting him and always bowing politely. That was a lot of fun, and he wasn't about to let it go.Marco gave a slight crooked smile. He could read the concern from the man who was trying to avoid the proof. And so, still with his arms crossed over his chest, Marco looked at the workers around him. "But, did you all not hear at all that Mr. Marco is coming to visit today?"At that moment, the workers began to
"Meeting?" asked the fake Marco with a frown on his forehead. The man looked confused by what Marco had said. "What meeting do you mean?" He hadn't heard about the meeting held recently at all. He didn't find out much because he had been busy here. After all, no one was threatening his existence, which was why he was so relaxed. People had trusted him so much that they had never questioned his identity.But now, the workers were looking at her with confusion mixed with doubt. He thought that whatever this man in front of him said was very dangerous and could provoke a reaction from the workers. Just look, those who were originally so obedient and constantly flattered him now had many questions in their eyes.Marco himself raised one eyebrow. "Didn't you know that a meeting was held a few days ago to discuss this project? I think you should attend that important meeting." Yes, a lure to reveal who the wolf was among the sheep here was to put fresh meat in front of him. This would make
At that time, Tom was choosing some fruits to buy and stock in his house. Tom kissed one of the apples before putting it into the shopping cart. But suddenly his cell phone rang, a call from an important person in his office that he had to answer immediately. At the time, Tom didn't suspect anything was wrong with the project. Until the voice on the other end of the line said, "Mr. Marco is ordering you to the project site, now."So, without thinking twice, Tom left his groceries and went outside to get into the car. He drove his car at high speed and traveled for fifteen minutes.When Tom finally arrived at the project site, he felt terrible. "Why is Mr. Marco calling me like this?" he asked as he got down and half ran to get closer to Marco.Tom didn't look at the faces of the two people who were standing there and arguing with each other. As soon as he was in the middle of them, Tom bowed and said, "Sir."One of the men, who was also wearing a suit and was looking the other way, im
The clicking sound of a mouse being pressed repeatedly could be heard coming from a room. People in material shirts and pants were busy working in front of the computer. No one made much noise, just asking about work or what needed to be done. There wasn't even the sound of a coffee machine being turned on. The only odor filling the room was the smell of ink from the photocopiers and printers.The sound of the cooling machine installed at the end of the room was the only loudest and could be heard to the other end. At that time, nothing unusual happened. People were busy with their activities.Until all of a sudden, the calm atmosphere became a bur=yar. Someone ran from outside the office and headed towards his boss's room. "Sir! Sir! We got a huge package!"Hearing this, people immediately became curious and walked over to see the contents of the package. The package was huge, with a cardboard box covered by a wooden box. There was no gap to peek through, making people even more curi
Marco thought that his revenge would make Charlie immobilized. The man should have been self-aware about who he would be against if he played around. But alas, his guess was wrong. Instead of calming down, Charlie became more and more agitated. The man stared harshly at his reflection on the surface of the wall. Charlie's hands were clenched tightly. His mouth growled with a roaring breath. The image of Marco's face as it showed his destroyed building exploded disgusted him. "Damn it!"He yelled before slamming the vase of flowers on the desk. Afterward, he pulled the glass table back and smashed it against the wall until there was a loud shattering sound. The end of the desk had been damaged, with the center glass badly cracked. Not only that, he also walked over to the shards and kicked the edge of the desk with his foot. Over and over again until the desk finally shattered like a vase."Watch out! I'll get back to you!" Charlie shouted back. He continued to vent her emotions towa
