Zane confidently stood amidst the bustling crowd at the car exhibition, accompanied by two stunning women, Emma and Cecilia. Despite the envious stares and whispers surrounding him, Zane maintained his cool demeanor.His composure was put to the test when Daniel, a rival in both business and love, approached him with a sneer."Well, well, if it isn't Zane Gardner. I must say, you're braver than I gave you credit for," Daniel taunted. "First, you pursue the crown princess of the Scott family, and now you're here with these lovely ladies. Quite the player, aren't you?"Zane refused to engage in Daniel's petty games, knowing it would only give him satisfaction. Instead, he chose to ignore the malicious undertones in Daniel's words.The crowd surrounding them observed the tense exchange, with some of them being Zane's colleagues from Scott Company.One employee leaned in to whisper to her friend, "Do you see that man over there? He's Mr. Gardner, the general manager from my department. Ru
Zane lifted the black card from his pocket. The crowd around him fell into a hushed silence, their eyes fixed on the mysterious object in his hand. It was as if they were all holding their breath, waiting for the revelation that was about to unfold.A collective gasp rippled through the onlookers as Zane unveiled the card. Whispers filled the air, their voices tinged with awe and admiration. The onlookers could hardly believe their eyes - a black card, the rarest and most coveted possession anyone could have."Wait, is that a black card?" One spectator exclaimed, his eyes wide with astonishment.Another chimed in, "It's the ultimate symbol of luxury and wealth. Only the elite few are privileged enough to have one."As the crowd murmured in awe, a sense of regret began to creep in among those who had initially doubted Zane. They watched him with silent acknowledgment, realizing that their assumptions had been hasty."Does this mean we're in for an interesting spectacle?" Someone quippe
Zane had won the bet, leaving Daniel in a tricky situation. The crowd was demanding that Daniel face the consequences of his loss, and he was desperately looking for a way out.But then, Daniel's face lit up with a mischievous smile as he spotted a gap in the crowd. Could he slip away and avoid the humiliation that awaited him? His heart raced with hope.However, his momentary triumph was short-lived. One keen-eyed member of the audience had caught onto his sneaky tactics. Just as Daniel was about to make a run for it, a strong hand grabbed his shirt and pulled him down to the ground.“Where do you think you're going?” The man's voice boomed, shocking everyone around. “You're a coward!”“Do you really think you can escape this?” Another voice joined in, dripping with disdain. The crowd began to jeer, eagerly anticipating the spectacle that was about to unfold. Laughter filled the air as people relished the downfall of someone who had been so arrogant just moments ago.“Don't let him g
The Marcus Scott Company lobby was abuzz with activity on a sunny morning as a sleek red luxury car pulled up to the entrance. From the passenger seat emerged Zane Gardner, exuding an air of confidence in his impeccably tailored black executive suit. In his hand, he held a sleek leather briefcase, adding to his professional appearance.As he stepped out of the car, the employees couldn't help but turn their heads towards him. The women, in particular, were captivated by the charismatic newcomer and couldn't resist stealing glances at him."Look, it's Mr. Gardner and his new car," one of the employees whispered excitedly to her colleague, unable to contain her admiration."Ah, he looks even more dashing and handsome in that car. It must have cost a fortune," another woman chimed in, her voice filled with awe."Did you know? He just bought it yesterday at the luxury car show held by the Scott Company," a well-informed employee shared, proud of her insider knowledge."Really? I didn't kn
The morning meeting at Marcus Scott Company took an unexpected turn when Zane revealed shocking information. It was concrete evidence that Daniel had been manipulating financial data for his own personal gain.However, instead of admitting to his wrongdoing, Daniel's face twisted with defiance as he vehemently denied Zane's claims. He even went as far as to stand up from his chair, pointing an accusing finger at Zane."Nonsense!" he bellowed, his voice resonating through the room. "You're new here and I have more seniority. You clearly don't understand the complexities of this company like I do!"His words carried weight and many of the other directors murmured in agreement, seemingly in support of Daniel. "Zane Gardner, you're still new here. Your audacity is uncalled for," one of the directors cautioned.Another chimed in, offering advice to Zane, "Young man, your career is just beginning. It would be wise to learn from your seniors and avoid arrogance. It will only lead to trouble
Zane's swift and precise maneuver left Daniel sprawled on the floor, drawing the attention of everyone in the room. The sudden turn of events triggered a collective murmur that rippled through the room, as onlookers tried to make sense of what had just happened.Confusion and awe mingled in the air as the witnesses exchanged observations in hushed tones. A group of people near the door clustered together, their faces filled with shock and amazement.One of them whispered incredulously, "I saw Mr. Miller about to attack Mr. Gardner from behind, but with one powerful move, Mr. Gardner managed to block and reverse the situation. How could he be so strong? Did anyone else see that?"Another bystander, squinting in thought, replied, "I didn't see it clearly, but I think you're right. Mr. Gardner must possess some incredible power to pull off such a feat."A third voice chimed in, adding to the growing admiration. "Yeah, I saw it too. And did you see how he caught a tissue block precisely w
Zane's day had been filled with exciting developments. He had experienced a significant increase in his cultivation level, thanks to an act of "face slapping" that the system deemed impressive. This accomplishment left him feeling elated and fulfilled, a tangible sign that his journey in cultivation was bearing fruit.Lost in contemplation, Zane was jolted back to reality by the piercing ring of his phone. He picked up the receiver and was greeted by the warm and professional voice of his secretary."Mr. Gardner, Ms. Claire is here and will be heading to your room," she informed him with a respectful yet familiar tone."Thank you," Zane replied, his curiosity piqued. He wondered what could have prompted Claire to visit him at his office today.Moments later, there was a soft knock on his door, and Claire entered with a cheerful smile. "Hi, Zane," she greeted him warmly."Hello, Claire. Please come in," Zane welcomed her, his tone friendly and inviting.Claire always managed to exude e
High above the bustling city, the restaurant perched atop a high-rise building, offering a breathtaking view of the city skyline. The lights of the city twinkled like stars below, creating a magical atmosphere.As Zane and Claire arrived at the rooftop, they walked towards a corner table that Claire had reserved. She intentionally chose this secluded and quiet spot away from the bustling noise of other diners.Zane gracefully pulled out Claire's chair for her."Thank you, Zane," she said with a warm smile.Then, in a slightly teasing tone, she added, "I'm curious, do you always act like this towards all women? Because I might misunderstand all your good attitudes."Zane flashed her a charming smile and replied, "Hmm...I'm not sure about that. I just want to do what I want to do."His answer was genuine and reflected his simple philosophy of acting according to his instincts.As they settled into their seats, Zane took a moment to observe their surroundings. The rooftop atmosphere was
