Daniel smiled bitterly at Claude's question. He shouldn't have to ask that. From the first time Claude looked at him, he should have known that they were the ones who were more suitable to be a leader in the company. Daniel let out his breath. He chuckled. "Everyone knows that we are experts. We've been in the Dracena Group for a dozen years and almost twenty. Of course no one should doubt us about this." Daniel said it with confidence. Of the fifteen people there, Daniel and Adam were the ones who were much older than all of them. As Daniel had said earlier, if they had worked there for almost twenty years, the two men felt they should be the company's new leaders. And not a young man they barely knew. "We regret very much why this company should be held and led by a young man who I don't think knows anything about the Dracaena Group." Adam chimed in with his opinion. There, Daniel glanced at him until they made eye contact. "You're right, Mr. Adam. An expert like us should be th
Hearing Claude's words made the two men smile confidently. Claude should have known this from the start and recognized them as great people. "You are right, Mr. Claude. Of course, we are great people and have a lot of experience. Of course, that's because we've been with this company for so long." Daniel said that with his chest puffed out. His eyes seemed different, and he looked much more arrogant this time.Adam also straightened his body. He looked at Claude's face and spoke, "You shouldn't doubt us. Even as an experienced person, we can help you learn about the company and how to run it. I know it will be tough for you, who has just joined the company." Adam said this with a very frivolous look on Claude's face.Daniel leaned forward. His hands were currently on the table. But he immediately moved his other hand to straighten his suit. "As I said, many companies also want us, but of course, we don't want to leave Dracena Group. And our vast experience and knowledge will make it e
Daniel's chest was still pounding. He was upset that Claude had secretly found out so much about him. The fear and tension had not disappeared, but Claude had asked a new question."And I heard that your son was just released from the law," Claude spoke again. Claude now had his hands on either side of the chair and was staring at Daniel's face sternly. Of course, he wanted the answer from the man who always acted arrogantly.Daniel sighed. He tried to get rid of his nerves and dared to look at Claude's face. "You shouldn't have to ask about this, Mr. Claude," Daniel spoke firmly.His body was still leaning on the table. And it could be seen that his hands were still clenched tightly. The legal noose that his son had gotten was long and heavy. And, of course, he would do anything to release his son."Mr. Claude, this is a big company. And, of course, I can do that. And about my son-" Daniel paused his sentence for a moment. He sighed and straightened up. "You are a rich man and even t
The meeting shouldn't have taken two hours, but a little problem made them all waste a lot of time just because of Daniel and Adam. After the meeting was over, Claude immediately left the room and walked out, leaving the people who were still in the room.Claude walked casually out of the room. He also played on his cell phone and replied to several messages that had previously been received, but Claude's eyes were on Olivia, who was waiting for him. Olivia immediately got up and walked over to Claude.Olivia smiled and looked closer at Claude. "Claude, how was your meeting? Did everything go well?" Olivia asked with a serious look in her eyes.Claude put his cell phone in his pocket. He nodded slowly and spoke, "Yes, everything went well. It's quite fun, although there are a few boring things." Claude replied in a soft voice.Of course, the boring part was when he had to deal with Daniel and Adam, so he had to spend a lot of time in the meeting room, even though Claude had managed to
Claude had just met his grandfather. They were having lunch together, just the two of them. Meanwhile, there was a lot of food that had been served to both of them.There was also Bruce, who was about to serve food to Claude, but Claude immediately moved his hand to stop Bruce. "I'll get it myself." Claude's words made the old man move back and let his master take the food there.They had faced their food. Eating quietly, then for a few moments, Smith looked into his grandson's face. "How are things at the office? Are you comfortable being a leader there?" Smith asked in a soft voice.Claude stopped the movement of his hand that was about to spoon the food into his mouth. "Grandpa, I'm finding things uncomfortable at the office," Claude said as it was.He lowered the spoon containing the food. Then, he looked at his grandfather's face more seriously. "I feel as if a terror is threatening."Meanwhile, Smith, who heard that, sighed. He swallowed his food by pushing it with drinking wate
The next day, Anne was ready with her things. They had just left the house and were walking to the car. But there was Anne, whose face looked glum, which made Olivia frown. Olivia, who realized something strange about her mother, immediately held her mother's hand until when Anne turned her head, she immediately asked. "What's wrong, mom? Didn't you ask for a vacation here? So why is your face gloomy? You don't even seem to like us being on vacation today. Isn't that your wish?" Olivia looked at her with a furrowed brow.Anne let go of Olivia's hand, then shook her head and looked annoyed. "Yes, I want a vacation. But you have to disguise yourselves like this? I want to take a vacation quietly and like a normal person." Anne looked at the faces of her daughter and son-in-law. Both wore hats and sunglasses, and even Claude seemed to be wearing a mask. Of course, this made Anne unhappy. "We're like fugitives." she snorted in annoyance. Olivia let out her breath. She turned to Claude
"You are the one who is not polite. I made you a very generous offer, but you refused it. And this is very stupid." Rico was still holding Olivia's hand tightly.Olivia tried to remove her hand from Rico's grip. But the grip was too strong that it even made her wrist very painful. "Let go of me. Didn't I say I'm swamped? And I don't have much time to deal with this gak." Olivia gave an affirmation. She was very annoyed with the man who kept forcing her.Right now, Olivia was a little regretful for rejecting Claude, who would accompany her until she had to deal with a bold man.Without letting go of her hand, Rico looked at the woman who had spoken rudely. He was distraught, but of course, Rico didn't just let Olivia go. He was sure that Olivia would become a famous model, so it would make Rico a lot of money this time."You are foolish. Don't say anything anymore. And hurry up and come with me!" Rico immediately pulled Olivia's hand and took her to the back of the room. And there were
Ivy approached Olivia. She laughed there and thought something bad of Olivia. She even noticed Olivia's appearance with the up-and-down movement of her eyeballs. "I know that you're just making excuses. I also know that you want to run away from here because you feel inferior to me. You must not have the ability like me, and that's why you insist on not wanting to be in this place to compete with me."Ivy smiled confidently. She shook her long hair. But that made Olivia frown. "What do you mean? Of course, I'm not inferior to you. "Olivia challenged Ivy's words. Olivia said it was true that she left because she hated Rico for asking her to do a photo shoot. Meanwhile, she was sure that Claude was waiting for her right now. And all these things had taken up a lot of her time.Ivy folded her hands in front of Olivia. She was still very confident. Then she smiled wryly. "I am the only beautiful woman here." Ivy moved one step.Ivy let Olivia look at her more closely to make Olivia feel m
