"How's that possible?" Arnold inquired, peering into Grandpa Rogers' phone. Cassie couldn't possibly be telling the truth. It had to be a fabrication—a lie of some sort. "The contract details have been sent via email." Ronan Rogers stated, raising his phone. Everyone in the room froze briefly before turning to face Cassie. They appeared to be too astonished to speak. Arnold quickly got out his phone, and others followed suit. To validate the story, they promptly sought Buddy Industry's official social media account. Surprisingly, the deal information had been disclosed on the company's social media account, and Rogers Corporation was announced to have won the bid for the casino project. The contract was valid. They were also astounded to see that the contract's overall value had been doubled, precisely as Cassie had predicted. How was that even possible?How did Cassie close the sale in such a short time? Several high-profile firms had expressed interest in the project, but Buddy
Arnold quickly rose from his kneeling position. He felt embarrassed by his actions. He’d knelt before Ethan. What a humiliating experience. The whole family had seen him bow at the feet of a loser. That had to be the most terrible thing ever happening to him.Ronan Rogers frowned as he saw his and Ethan's conversation. Arnold had let himself be mocked by the useless live-in son-in-law. He was pretty dissatisfied. He couldn't do anything, though, because it was a bet, and he believed in fairness. Arnold had utterly misjudged Cassie, and this was his retribution."This should serve as a lesson to you, Arnold." I believe you will never doubt any member of this family's ability. I expect you to stop making irresponsible bets like this, especially with Ethan, as of today. It would be beneficial if you could learn to maintain your position as the eldest son in this household. Do not act or speak as if you are a youngster. You have a lot of responsibilities in this family, and one of them i
"What should I do now?" Cassie inquired as they strode away. "How do I invite a man I have never seen or spoken to?""I believe you should contact the Vice-Chairman. She should be able to contact the chairman and request that he attend the banquet. That, I believe, is the correct course of action." Ethan responded sharply.Cassie gave a nod. "Then you should wait here while I dial her number.“"Yes. I'll stay right here."Cassie let out a sigh. "I just hope this works out.""Sure. I think it'll work out, dear." Cassie grinned as Ethan spoke. A tiny smile crept across his lips as he watched her leave the room to call Demi.Everything would be resolved with a single phone call from him to Demi. If only she knew she didn't have to be concerned about anything. He couldn't wait to see her expression when everything came together perfectly, and he revealed his true identity. He dragged his gaze back to the room they’d just left, and his eyes were drawn to Arnold and Grandpa Rogers, who wer
Cassie dashed to the opposite end of the room to take Demi's call. Her pulse was pounding against her chest because the outcome of the phone call would decide whether or not she would be appointed as the director of Rogers company. If the chairman declined the invitation, she would lose her chance to become the director, and vice versa.She spoke into the phone while holding the device with shaky hands. "I wasn't expecting your response so soon, Miss Demi. Have you spoken with the chairman? "I just got off the phone with him, and yes. I told him about the banquet and that he had been invited. He agreed to come.”Cassie almost burst out screaming. She couldn't believe she could persuade the anonymous chairman to attend the banquet. The man rarely attended renowned events, yet he was willing to attend their party. She was overjoyed that he accepted the invitation and, more importantly, that she would be appointed as the company's director. She had done something spectacular and nearly
Cassie and Ethan left the Rogers mansion after the meeting to return to their residence, the guest house. Cassie smiled as they walked out of the mansion."I still can't believe I did it. Did you observe Grandpa Rogers' expression when he learned that the chairman of Buddy Industries will attend the banquet?" She inquired, grinning."Yes. He appeared to be overjoyed. And now he has no choice but to appoint you as the company's director. You have earned it, and I am quite proud of you. You have shown Arnold and others who doubted you that you are superior to them.""It's like a dream. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. The announcement will be made at the banquet, which will be attended by many important people." Cassie elaborated."We should congratulate you on your success. You have accomplished much and deserve to be recognized." Ethan proposed. "I mean, it's not every day one gets to secure a deal with Buddy Industry within an hour.""I concur. What should we do to commemorate this o
The manager laughed as she crossed her arms across her chest. "Who do you believe you are to threaten me? How dare you come in here and speak to me like that?"She turned to face the security guards who had entered the building. "Take him away, and if he resists, bundle him out. I never want to see him here again. Keep that in mind."Mrs. Abby was in an uproar at the store as customers who disagreed with her attitude toward Ethan began to speak up. Others cheered her on and seemed thrilled that she was about to evict him. They were perplexed why a lowly man like him would try to raise a commotion in Ardini Enterprise.The security guards approached Ethan, but he appeared unconcerned. They would never force him to go if he didn't want to. When they arrived, they attempted to lead him out, but he remained immobile in his posture."You have the option to leave willingly without any further embarrassment, or they would be forced to use other measures to take you out." The manager cautione
Enrico kept apologizing for disrespecting Ethan."I apologize. I am your grandfather's best buddy, and if I had known you were his grandchild, this would not have occurred." He pleaded.Ethan looked at him with contempt. He was disgusted that he only perceived the need to be respectful to persons in positions of power in the city. He didn't care about people who didn't possess businesses or millions of money. He knew that if he had been impoverished, he would have thrown him out right away.He enjoyed seeing prideful individuals seek forgiveness for their misdeeds. It was exciting to see them struggle with their egos when they admitted their mistakes. Watching him gave him the same satisfaction he got when Arnold knelt at his feet.He took his phone from his pocket and looked at the time. It was getting late, and he needed to get home as soon as possible. He couldn't stay out for so long, even though he was enjoying this. He cleared his throat and said. “I expected you to come here a
Ethan departed Ardini Jewelry Enterprise, trailed by his entourage. When he walked out of the building, he noticed that people were still gathered outside, waiting for him to depart.They were trying to photograph him while others were videoing him. It prompted a commotion, and numerous individuals tried to push their way past Ethan. Instantly, he felt quite uneasy and urged his bodyguards to disperse the gathering and guarantee that no one continued to photograph him."Archibald, please handle everyone and make sure they stop photographing me. I don't want this to spark a riot on the internet." He spoke to Archibald, who bowed slightly. Archibald immediately asked several bodyguards to assist him in dispersing the gathering as Ethan directed.Although it required much effort, Archibald and the bodyguards soon dispersed the crowd."It's time to go, Sir. Everything has been handled properly.” Archibald told him."All well, then. You may get going. I have another place to go before I re
