“Did they pay you in cash or what?”She was intrigued because she hadn't gotten any money in her bank account because Elijah's salary come through her.Elijah nods his head“Yes, it was in cash.”Jessica shifted her gaze at him as he stretch her hand forward .“Let me have it.”Elijah swiftly grabbed the money envelope from his pocket and presented it to Jessica.“here it is ”Jessica took the money envelope from Elijah; she was about to keep it within her beg, but the weight forced her to open it, and his eyes popped out.“What exactly is this? Is this the percentage you were referring to? How did you get so much money?”Elijah shakes his head.“Yes, this is the percentage I got from the car I sold, and it's $30,000 that was given to me.”Jessica is still unable to believe what she has just heard. Elijah appears to be doing some secret job, which he had kept hidden from her.“You bloody liar, you think I don't know you're working somewhere else; you should have thought of a better
The Bernards were about to depart the house. Except for Elijah, who had just returned from work that evening, every member of the family doesn't have any time for him except Lady Helen who confronted him.“We are leaving the house; make sure nothing gets lost, and make sure my dogs are fed.”Elijah shakes his head.“Okay, I would do that.”Lady Helen look at him disgusted “Leave my sight now, useless man.”As the Bernards left the house, Elijah looks relieved no one is going to insults him for sometime.Terry and Doris do not leave with the family they want to go separately they have their own invitation card with them.“Megan, come, let's go; we're running late.”Doris said while checking her watch.Megan responded.“You're free to go. Damien and I will be coming together.”Megan knows you need an invitation to get in, and Damien doesn't have any, so they can both use hers.Terry eyes squeezed after hearing what Megan had just stated.“You've got to be kidding, right? Who invited th
Damien remembered that he had forgotten to ask Megan for the address of the event.“Megan, what is the address of the event?”Megan too had forgotten to inform him.“Oh sorry, I haven't told you early; it's on Marvin Street, No. G50, to be precise.”Megan smiles a little she would focus are attention on Damien to see if something unusual would happen at the event, and that would confirm her suspicion, this is the reason she allowed Damien to accompany her. Damien was taken aback by how near it was to his mother's mansion.Doris said while looking at Damien.“don't be surprised, you should be thankful to my daughter, who want to allow a useless fool like you to come with us”Damien didn't say anything he kept his cool while driving the car.When visitors arrived at the mansion, they were taken to the open garden, the breathtaking scene. The pathways are lined with brilliant flower beds bursting with colourful blossoms, creating a lovely environment. The scent of lavender and roses f
Everyone was seated, watching what was in front of them. They were taken aback by the design and size of the mansion. Jessica couldn't help but say nice things.“I never knew I would see such a thing; this is just too beautiful.”Lady Helen stated with a big smile on her face.“you can say it again: this is mind-boggling. I'm just glad I get to experience this for once. I now understand why only the top family are always invited to this anniversary; everything appears to be perfect. I'm curious to know how much they spent just organising this.”Jessica replied as she stared at what was in front of her.“It must likely cost a lot from the food alone; it's must be over a million dollars.”Lady Helen stated as she joined Jessica in admiring the place.Sir Bernard said nothing at that time he was lost for words, he never dreamed his family would be invited to such an occasion reserved for the top family. Despite their recent contract been won, these types of occurrences are simply too muc
“The Hernandez family also owned Kaz Mega Store, a well-known boutique specialising in high-end dresses and bags. The Hernandez family had not only offered a platform for designers, but had also been synonymous with flair and refinement in the industry by delivering high-end fashion options.”Collins praised their commitment to excellence and ability to constantly meet the needs of their selective clients he then smile facing Sean“I would love to visit Kaz someday, but when I have grown up like you”he said to Sean once more.Some of the families are beaming, knowing how amusing Collins is; everyone knows him.Sean made the decision to say something. “Don't be afraid about that, Come to Kaz with your girlfriend whenever you're ready. Whatever you get is on me.”Collins bent his head at that point he knows Sean would definitely want to prove a point. The rest of the family didn't mind they know he's definitely going to say something it's not a big deal anyways, but Jessica and Olivia
Sir Bernard never for once thought of his family name would be known to everyone today. He wonders what Collins was going to say about them; he's undoubtedly going to congratulate them for what they've been able to accomplish in such a short period of time that has put the family name on the lips of many, and he hopes they haven't found out about some of the family's secret going-on.Collins finished his remarks.“Last but not the least, this is the first time the family has been invited to the Golden Gate Innovation Anniversary, all thanks to Mr. Noah, who took it upon himself to invite them to this event.”Collins had been given specific instructions. He continued with a slight smile.“I'm sure must of you are intrigued about this family's identity. When I heard the family's name, I became fascinated and wanted to dig into the excellent work they had done.”At that time, the Bernard family members raised their shoulders and smiled broadly as they anticipated how Collins would prese
They couldn't believe what they had just heard. Lady Helen said something to Jessica in hushed tones.“What did he just say? How is that possible? Nobody informed us there would be a gift presentation today”Jessica glance at her mother with surprise all over her face.“This is strange, Mom; nobody informed us about it. How are we going to deal with this situation now?”Lady Helen was lost in thought; she doesn't know what to do at this time.Dennis kept his cool. He knows he's going to be humiliated if he say anything, he said to his mother.“I was only gone for a few days, and you all forgot to buy a gift for this occasion. How can no one remember to buy something?”He gaze at Megan with deadly eyes.“And the smart princess of the family was busy pretending in the hospital and asking for a request to get me out of the family company when she can't do her job properly.”Lady Helen simply wants a solution at this point.Sir Bernard was still shocked by the gift presentation, and it ap
“Good day, everyone! We are aware that Mr. Noah values this anniversary particularly. We took our time to find the ideal gift to present this year because of this, but we were somewhat let down by what we received, I'm not here to complain, but the company that was meant to provide us the gift—you all know what happened to everything luxury, but it wouldn't stop us from presenting our gift” Sean said to Collens.“I need you to open the gift box.”The guests gazed in astonishment as Collen unwrapped the gift while he lowered his head and opened the box.Sean uttered while pointing at the gift.“This expensive wristwatch is made of the best materials and set with precious diamonds.” As some of the guests felt a twinge of jealousy towards the excessive display of wealth, gasps of envy filled the air. Sean was unfazed by their responses and grasped the chance to brag about his family's riches while firmly centering the spotlight on himself.“As you can all see, the wealth of this wrist w
