Could the person whose humility was previously mocked be the important person his uncle mentioned?“I’ve offended an important person... for the past few days, the only person I’ve been bothering was Richard. Turns out... turns out that person was him?!”“Hahahaha!” Elvan laughed in despair, his whole body shaking violently.Had he known it would come to this, he would never have tried to insult and belittle Richard. If he had known who Richard really was, he would never have pursued Dharia.Dharia, Dharia. It’s all over for you! It’s all over for the Nelsons family!The former husband you called a parasite and useless is now highly respected by a CEO of LandMark! Someone who can buy an expensive villa with just one word!When they arrived at Villa Number 8, they both went inside immediately.“No wonder it’s so expensive. This house is located on such a prime piece of land! No wonder the price is so high,” Aurora murmured as she surveyed the entire house.Richard was slightly taken ab
“For the past three years, he hasn’t been able to make any money at all. There’s no way he could buy a villa! Aurora is also quite shameless! Just like her mother, who loves to flirt with others. A bastard like her doesn’t deserve to celebrate her birthday!”After saying this, she took out her phone and said, “Mom, I’m calling my friends and inviting them to my birthday party. I want everyone to know that Aurora and Richard are having an affair so they can see just how cunning that woman is.”“Yes! That’s right! Just invite all your friends so they can see who Aurora really is. Luckily, you’re now being courted by the Diamond Group manager! Let them be envious of you!” Carmen replied.The Nelsons family confidently believed that Raylon was interested in Dharia because they thought that was why he had booked the Underwater Hotel for her. However, what they didn’t know was that the hotel was booked for the bastard child they so despised!Meanwhile, it was Richard, their former son-in-la
“One more thing, send an interview invitation to Aurora right away. No decisions should be made until she arrives. This is an order!”The firm command came from Richard. He didn’t want to see Dharia seated as the project manager there.Didn’t Dharia say that Richard was like trash? That Richard couldn’t give her what she wanted?“I heard you mention Dharia’s name earlier. Did she call you?” Aurora suddenly asked from the second floor, looking down at Richard, who was standing near the kitchen.Richard’s face looked far from happy. The man seemed to be suppressing his anger.Aurora assumed that Richard was still unable to forget the failure of his marriage, so she tried to comfort him. “I can tell that she still has feelings for you deep down in her heart. Otherwise, she wouldn’t still be thinking about you even after the divorce.”Hearing this, Richard laughed briefly and replied, “There’s no place for me in her heart anymore, only money, a villa, and luxury cars. That’s all. I couldn
The loud voice immediately made people rush toward its source. A man dressed casually, with both hands in his pockets, appeared. He didn’t seem afraid of whoever he was facing. Beside him stood a woman in more formal attire. Her legs were slender, and her skin was smooth and pale. Her face looked very beautiful with elegant, light makeup.“Richard?! What are you doing?” Dharia asked, her brow furrowed, and her expression filled with disgust.People noticed Dharia’s expression and quickly began guessing who the man was.“Maybe he’s the son-in-law of the Nelsons family. A useless son-in-law. Look at his clothes!”“Who’s the woman beside him? She’s so beautiful. Why isn’t she a model instead?”Richard ignored the comments from those around him and didn’t answer Dharia’s question. He directly led Aurora to the interview location.Dharia blocked Richard’s path and asked again, “Hey, I asked you, what are you doing here?”Richard remained silent, but Aurora took the initiative to answer. “
As soon as she reached the door, Dharia confidently pushed it open and walked into the interview room. She thought that this session would be just a formality and that she wouldn’t fail.“Hello, Sir! I’m Dharia Nelsons!” Dharia said, extending her hand.The interviewer was a middle-aged man, around 40 years old. He wore a suit and glasses. His expression was very serious with sharp, piercing eyes.“Oh… Dharia Nelsons?!” the man said upon hearing Dharia’s voice.Dharia lifted her head and turned around. “Yes, I’m Dharia Nelsons. I’m here for the interview regarding the project manager position. I...”Before Dharia could finish her sentence, the man cut her off. “You can leave now!”Dharia was stunned. She couldn’t believe what the man had just said. She asked, “Do you mean I should leave now and that the interview is over?”The middle-aged man frowned and looked at Dharia with an ironic gaze. “Over? Who said your interview was successful? I mean, you failed the interview!”“Do you unde
“Diamond Group wants to expand into Rio Dio Country soon.”“But the market in Rio Dio Country has been monopolized by Skyler Group, which is in the top 10 largest companies in the country.”“This month, on the 15th, there will be a cooperation negotiation with the head of Skyler Group.”“Skyler Group’s profit margin is 35%, while Diamond Group’s is 15%. What can I offer here? I can make Skyler Group give up another 5% to us by the 15th.”“Please don’t doubt me, because I can do it!”At that moment, Aurora stood directly in front of the interviewer. A brief silence fell over the room. Light emanated from Aurora’s two eyes in the midst of a fairly bright room.At that moment, anyone would be captivated by the enchanting light in Aurora’s eyes, even overshadowing her own beauty.In such a situation, it seemed Aurora no longer needed Richard’s assistance. She could fight on her own for the project manager position.Soon, the middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically. He raised his
As the secretary walked towards them, Richard laughed insincerely and said, “Yes, I’m very poor, I can’t even rent a single room at the Underwater Hotel. Let’s see what your birthday will be like on the 18th!”“Aurora, let’s go!” Richard said, grabbing Aurora’s hand, while Dharia still looked at them with a disgusted expression.“You and your close friend are requested to attend the Underwater Hotel,” the secretary told Dharia.Initially, Dharia wasn’t quite sure if the Underwater Hotel was really booked for her or not. But now it seemed it was indeed for her. If not, why was she being asked to go there?“Alright, tell Mr. Raylon I will definitely come,” Dharia said with great joy and a hint of arrogance, as if she were already superior to the secretary.Dharia couldn’t wait for the 18th to arrive. She and Aurora shared the same birthday, and she would be staying at the luxurious nine-star Underwater Hotel, attended by all the top officials in Ligos city. Meanwhile, Aurora? She might
On the other side, Richard took Aurora out of Diamond Group and then looked for a place to eat.However, Aurora’s phone suddenly rang. It was Carmen, speaking loudly over the phone, “Aurora, do you have time? Come home for dinner.”Usually, Carmen never invites her to meals. Why the sudden invitation?Aurora knew the reason without needing to guess. She immediately declined, “No need, Aunt. If you have something to say, just say it directly. I know you hate me, so why pretend to be nice by inviting me for dinner?”Carmen was enraged. What did that child mean?Had she become bold enough to defy her now?Carmen showed her true colors, “Why are you speaking like that? You ungrateful child!”“Now that you’re a project manager at Diamond Group, the Nelsons family has a project. Hurry up and take it so we can work together.”From Carmen’s tone, it was clear this was an order, not a negotiation.Before Aurora could respond, Richard glanced at her and reminded, “Don’t forget how the Nelsons f
