And once again, Xandrova reassured her husband. However, it was clear from her gaze that Viktor couldn't believe her.A summer breeze entered the Konstantin family's dining room through the wide-open windows. The warm rays of the morning sun greeted Viktor's snow-white skin just like Xandrova's beautiful, well-groomed skin. The couple lived under the same roof in the Konstantin family's luxurious mansion. It's a classically designed mansion that showcases the decorative side of the past."Get on with it, Viktor, and don't beat around the bush like this!" Davidoff exclaimed to his son-in-law who was never considered."I'm sorry if you all waited so long for my decision. Because to be honest... this is really difficult for me."'If I make the wrong decision, Papa and Mama will blame me for what happened to their daughter, right?' Viktor thought hard about this. Viktor was confident in his assumption just now."Because I don't want you and Mama Galana to blame me for what will happen to
Viktor was sitting across from his wife. He openly talks about his concerns over Xandrova's decision to return to education. The couple were silent as well as staring at each other. "All right, Viktor. I understand and agree to all the terms you said earlier." Viktor smiled and was relieved to hear Xandrova say so. "Okay, Zoya. I'll have Andriy take care of all your college preparations." Xandrova nodded in agreement. "Yes, Viktor. I'll be waiting for good news from you." Viktor rubbed the top of Xandrova's head, then walked to the balcony of her room. He walks while playing with his smartphone. Viktor: Andriy, take care of Zoya's paperwork and make sure she's treated well at college! That's Viktor. Just sending a short one-sentence message without any further ado. *** Today is Viktor's first day of work at the Konstantin family company located in the Moskovsky district of St Petersburg, Russia. He went to the office with Gennadius as well as three other men, one of whom was
Viktor stood in the corner of the office on the 7th floor. Yes, the same floor as Gennadius. He gazed at the beautiful view visible from his room. In the man's hand, there was a document that Gennadius had given him earlier. And, he wasn't alone."Mr. Viktor, is there anything you don't understand about the document in your hand?Viktor let out a long breath. It wasn't long before he turned around."Andriy, there are so many things I don't understand."Viktor walks over to the desk. He sits down across from Andriy."Do you know someone who can track?"Andriy tries to understand Viktor's question. However, in the end he asked to avoid misunderstanding his master."Tracking?"Viktor nodded decisively at the assistant. "Yes. I want someone trustworthy and an expert in tracking."Viktor watched Andriy fall silent. Deep down, he would love to have tracking skills."Is it like a detective?"Viktor shakes his head. "It doesn't have to be like a detective. The criteria I need is someone who h
"Please, come in!"Viktor shouted from inside his room. He glanced at his watch which showed 12:48pm local time."Excuse me, Mr. Viktor.A man walked into Viktor's office with Andriy. The man greeted Viktor, then followed Andriy to Viktor's desk."What is going on, Yuri?"The man named Yuri Gorbachev had been Gennadius' right-hand man for a long time. And of course, Viktor knew this."Mr. Gennadius asked me to pick you up for lunch with the relations right now.""Oh, Yuri. As Grandfather's confidant, I'd like to ask you something."Yuri looked at Viktor suspiciously. "Yes, Sir?"Viktor thought for a moment about the consequences of asking a right-hand man of Gennadius."Ah, I think I'll ask Grandfather directly."To cover up his curiosity, Viktor quickly diverted his attention. He stood up and straightened his coat.***Viktor left with Gennadius and their two assistants. Caleb was tasked with watching them from a distance.As the son-in-law of the number one richest family in St Pete
Gennadius' voice broke Viktor's reverie. Viktor was also nervous. Not nervous because he doesn't know or doesn't understand what Gennadius is talking about. However, because Viktor's mind was remembering something. Yes, that's right! Recalling the pieces of the past left in his mind."That's right, Mr. Viktor."Maksim joined the conversation. He glanced at Gennadius for a moment before continuing his words. Meanwhile, Viktor just fell silent, with his face beginning to blanch."In addition to musical performances, you can read books or magazines in Russian as well as foreign languages available on the bookshelf on the right, right behind you. The Grand Hotel Art Accent makes visitors feel comfortable."Maksim pointed to the bookshelf that was behind Viktor. However, Viktor didn't respond at all. Instead, he was busy playing with his thoughts.'I think I have to go to the bathroom right now,' Viktor thought, looking at Gennadius. He felt his head hurt."Grandpa and Mr. Maksim, I'm gonna
At the same time, Maksim came with his handsome face tense. He heard a little of Viktor and Gennadius' conversation."Excuse me. We are delivering orders for table number 7."Two waitresses came to greet Viktor and the others. They brought lunch orders and arranged them neatly on the table."Please enjoy!" "Please enjoy!"After bowing, the two waitresses left.Viktor looked at the many food menus served on the table."Please enjoy, Mr. Maksim!"Gennadius tries to melt Maksim's heart. He didn't want Maksim to be hurt, so he canceled the cooperation contract between the Romanov family company and the Konstantin family company."There's no need to be so formal like that, Mr. Gennadius. After all, I'm your granddaughter's former fiancée.Viktor saw Maksim force a smile to his lips. However, Viktor was pleased to see Maksim being respectful towards Gennadius."What does Grandpa want to eat? This man is at your service."And yes, Viktor volunteered as usual."Mr Maksim, you should try the
Maksim opened his eyes wide and stared at the series of sentences written on worksheet 2."If the 2nd party unilaterally cancels the cooperation contract, then the 2nd party must pay a penalty of 10 times the loss incurred."Viktor heard Maksim read the striking sentence that stunned everyone, including Gennadius."Yes, that's right."Viktor confirmed the sentence Maksim had just read. His calm demeanor always fooled the opponent."By what is written in the document, you as the second party must pay a penalty if you break the cooperation contract with Konstantin Co."Gennadius patted Viktor's left shoulder after his grandson-in-law explained to Maksim."Viktor, wasn't that sentence not in our agreement when we signed the document?"Gennadius whispered in Viktor's ear. He was anxious because he didn't want to lose the opportunity and trust of a giant company like RHC."Maybe you forgot, Grandpa."Viktor tried to avoid eye contact with Maksim as well as Feliks. Because he didn't want th
"Mr. Gennadius, I'm sorry if I presumptuously interrupted your conversation with Mr. Viktor. But in my opinion, what Mr. Viktor did was correct.Andriy spoke up in defense of his master."As a businessman, Mr. Viktor was simply anticipating things that might happen in the future. Considering that the relationship between the two families, the Konstantins and the Romanovs, has been strained by the breakup of Miss Zoya's engagement to Mr. Maksim."Andriy tried to clear up the misunderstanding between Gennadius and Viktor."And in my opinion, Mr. Viktor is perfectly suited to hold the position of a legal team or similar, Mr. Gennadius."'Yes, I like the position of company attorney better than Grandpa's assistant. I hope you'll listen to Andriy's advice.'Viktor thought to himself as he hoped that Gennadius would grant his wish."Let's go back to the office!"Gennadius didn't respond to Andriy's suggestion. Yuri handed Gennadius his cane. Viktor helped the great lord to his feet.***Vik
