Sarah and the rest of her friends had a faint smile on their faces now. It seemed their goal had already been quickly accomplished.They had expected Elena to argue the matter further with them. But Elena quickly gave up on it, as it was about to get her embarrassed.Elena is the kind of person who is so full of pride that she can't give anyone the chance to embarrass her.Elena is ready to safeguard her pride with her last breath, irrespective of whatever damage it will cause."Since I have announced it myself, what are your next plans?" Elena asked her friends shamelessly, with a touch of anger in her voice.She can't afford to allow them to shame the shameless. But Sarah and the rest were already relieved now, as their goal had been accomplished.Their faces only widened more in mocking smiles.Their goal was to embarrass Elena publicly at all costs, and they had already achieved it.What Elena didn't know was that her friends had intentionally invited her to the Cicada Hotel dinne
After Elena's friends had mocked her to their satisfaction, they made sure her mood was intensely ruined before they left.They aimed to leave a memory of a grave embarrassment in her mind like she had done to them, which they had successfully done.Later on, Elena forced herself to swallow some of the anger burning in her heart and then decided to leave for their villa.Diana and her mother were on their way home while Elena continuously hummed in frustration. She hadn't healed from the disgrace she was served today.She was getting more agitated and furious for keeping such bad friends for a very long time."I can't believe my friends could keep a grudge in mind for a very long time like that. It's just so bad." She muttered, dumped in bafflement.What surprised Elena more was that they embarrassed her because of a happening that occurred a long time ago at their company's anniversary celebration.The same anniversary celebration that was the root of their problem till this day.She
"Don't tell me you're still here to display your arrogance, do you?" Tony fired back at him, his eyes red as fire.Then Alfred butted in, saying, "You know I don't give a damn about you right from the start. I'll advise you to compose yourself right away, or I'll deal with you myself." Alfred rolled up his sleeves and clenched his fist. He had already lost his patience.He was angered by how disrespectful David was before them, expecting him to be at least respectful in front of Lady Wendy.But it was to his surprise that he didn't give the old woman any regard at all.Elena was only watching the trio. She didn't say anything about the matter, as she hadn't healed from the pain in her wrist. She didn't want to be so unfortunate as to offend David again, probably ending up in more severe pain this time.Not that Elena was ready to believe that David had anything extra in him now. All she had at the back of her mind was that David's palm had become rough and tough due to the hard jobs h
They all had frowning faces, and their minds were as bitter as a lemon.They had frowning faces, for a loser like David was using the life of their mother as a threat to them.What rubbish?!Also, they didn't feel good about the matter because wouldn't it be a shame for them to even disclose to David that their company had already collapsed?But all that shouldn't matter at the moment, as Granny had already made a promise and she should be ready to fulfill it.Although David was aware of their difficulty, he only wanted to see how they handled their matter in this situation.There was an agreement between them, and they should be ready to fulfill it.Out of rage, Tony fired back at him and said, "How dare you say such a thing from your silly mouth? Are you trying to curse our grandmother?"David understood his game, and then he asked, "Do you think it's a curse? Hurry up and give me my share, then." He sat more confidently on the seat after saying this.Granny wanted to interfere in t
Later in the evening, David was seen in a very calm and stunning atmosphere at his home.He sat on a couch, serving himself a warm cup of coffee with his face looking very bright with happiness. Then, he sipped his tea before resting his back gently.Then the slight smile on his face suddenly became wider, with a hint of satisfaction spreading through.David cleared his throat before he muttered in a mid-tone, "I think I have been able to achieve some number of goals." A glimmer of fulfillment widened in his heart.Taking a thought about all the goals, David was quite stunned by the wealth he had made within just a short period."I have $50 billion already, and there is still more to come." David was so lost in joy that he was talking aloud to himself.Making $5 million used to be an illusion to him in his past life. He had only heard of people who owned such an amount of money, but to him, it was more like a dream.Even if the dream might eventually come to life, it could only happen
David concluded that acquiring a lot of power in Glover City would help him reach the peak of his next pursuit quickly.He understood that it would be very difficult for the Wendy family to believe that he had now become a big deal within a short period.But as soon as he acquired a lot of power, even if they were still doubting him, none of them would ever want to offend him.The Wendy family was quite stunned when they saw Don Clinton and his boys groveling before David today, but it all looked like it was staged to them.The truth was that the Wendy family was just confused by the situation. At least, they had no idea how wealthy David was now, and they wondered where he would get so much money to pay Don Clinton.No matter the situation, they dared not belittle Don Clinton's class nor deny how powerful he was in the city.Wasn't that enough for them to have a second thought about who David was at this time?The Wendy family would have had the thought, but the fact that they believ
Eventually, he found out about the main purpose of the system now that the information had just been revealed to him.After the system had helped him become wealthy and own the biggest company in the city, the opportunity he had been longing for a long time ago was also brought to his fingertips with the help of the system.David was able to understand that the system had found him to help him meet his parents.Not that he didn't find the other benefits the system had provided for him important, but meeting his parents was much more important to him.David felt more elated when the robotic voice mentioned the third piece of information. He had always tried his best in the past to find out who his parents were, but it was all unsuccessful."I have thought I would live my whole life without knowing my parents. It seems there's hope for a turn of things now." David's eyes glittered with expectancy.Even though David had no idea how his expectations would come to life, his belief was very
Later in the day, Diana got to William's apartment and pushed the door wide open before she stomped in."William! William!! Where are you?" she yelled at the top of her voice.Diana was agitated because what she was hearing in response was just her voice. Her mind was filled with worries, and then she muttered, "Does he want to pretend not to hear me?"Then she yelled again, "William, I need to talk with you. Come over right now; I know you can hear me."Why didn't Diana check around the house to find him or go straight to his room instead of straining her voice in the sitting room?But hadn't Diana sworn never to visit William's house forever in her life? What was she doing here now?Just then, Diana began to peer around the sitting room and noticed some strange changes there.But her brain couldn't process things at the moment because her mind was damn messed up.She was in the middle of confusion before she saw Belinda, William's maid.Diana's face tightened in hatred upon setting
