What nonsense did you just say?" Granny yelled at Tony's father, who didn't seem offended by the question but looked ready to explain his point if given the chance.The other members of the family couldn't look Granny in the eyes now because she was so upset, which made her face turn into that of a lion. The anger was all over her face, causing them all to gaze at the floor.Tony's heart skipped a beat; he didn't want any other problems to come from his father again. The one on the ground hadn't been cleared yet, and it was a very tough one. For that, he was quite worried."Do you even know what you're saying at all?" Granny asked again angrily and hissed irritably."Besides, how dare you mention that loser's name in this kind of atmosphere?" Granny was even more furious as she spoke.Tony's father never thought his suggestion would upset Granny so much. He only said that because he thought it would be helpful. Now that Granny found it disrespectful and senseless, he would need to pro
Diana and her mother returned to their apartment after leaving Granny's living room. Diana, at that moment, was already boiling with anger. She was so enraged that she could do something unexpected.Why would her mother place such an impossible task on her shoulders? It's only asking for her to face embarrassing situations from the biggest company in Glover city.Even if her mother wanted her to try, she should have asked for her consent first. Instead, announcing it publicly based on her own opinion.Now that Granny had approved her to go for the submission, she had no excuse but to carry out the assignment.Diana was heading to her room with heavy footsteps, showing her anger before her mother blocked her way."My daughter, why are you so upset?" she asked calmly, staring into her eyes.Diana wanted to say something but paused, crossed her arms over her chest, and ignored her mother."My beloved, talk to me, I'm your mother," she said again, trying to hear from her daughter."But y
David was in his room, dressed in a new suit and expensive shoes. He stood in front of the mirror, admiring himself. He smiled at the mirror and couldn't resist complimenting himself."Damn! I look so good."He turned away from the mirror and checked the time on his new phone. The time was 8:03 AM.He had woken up early because he wanted to visit his company. There were some important things he needed to take care of.Firstly, he had ordered the bodyguards to take Huston and Susan to Camilla's office and they should all wait there until he arrived.He also called Camilla to make arrangements on how Mr. Scott would be in her office before his arrival.David had made a perfect plan. Today is the day! The day he would give his final judgment.Another reason why he needed to visit Tutfold PLC is because he wanted to have a business talk with Camilla about their two billion dollar project that would begin today.Just then, he remembered the available balance in his bank account wasn't up t
Camilla opened her mouth in awe as the deep secret behind the crime she had been investigating for a long time was fully revealed to her in just a second.'How can someone be so heartless and secretive!' This statement echoed in Camilla's head as she remained dumbstruck.Susan, who had been a secret lover with Huston for a long time, was also shocked. Despite their closeness, Huston had never mentioned anything about the fraudulent activity to her.Some time ago, she had been quite surprised by how lavishly he spent because she knew the amount he earned as a salary.How does he get all the money he squanders on her?As for Huston, he had been a womanizer all his life. Due to his love for women, he didn't mind spending his last bit of cash just to please them.He had won countless women's hearts in the past with his extravagant lifestyle. Since he loved to spend on women, he needed to find another source of income aside from his salary to please them.That's where his fraudulent idea b
"Make sure none of them ever get a new job in this city," David declared to Camilla, with so much anger evident in his voice."Consider it done right away, sir," Camilla bowed.She was still surprised by David's friendly judgment of the criminals. She had expected him to send them to jail. Embezzlers deserve to rot in jail.Fortunately, the Young Master was so kind with his judgment on them. He only instructed the bodyguards to take them out of his sight.The peak of what the bodyguards will do to them is to beat them to a stupor and leave them. Is that enough? No! It's not!They have caused a lot of damage to the company in the past. People like them are supposed to live all their lives in pain.The only thing the Young Master added was that he instructed her to make sure they never get a new job, which is the easiest thing for her to do."How is the preparation for the project going?" David inquired with a calm tone.He had cleared the previous dramas from his head so fast. They nee
Diana's face went cold as she saw the receptionist's facial expression change drastically. She cast a disdainful look at Diana before speaking harshly."Tutfold PLC doesn't want to see any Wendy Group members now or in the future."Upon hearing this, Diana's eyes went dizzy as she almost fainted. She first thought her ears were lying to her, maybe she didn't hear what was said correctly. She was trying to comprehend what she had just heard, but it was so difficult."Please leave immediately!" the receptionist's voice was more audible and stern than before.Diana heard loud mocking laughter behind her at that instant, and she nearly peed on herself.Damn! What an embarrassment! The previous happiness on her face had completely disappeared. She felt so mortified and wouldn't hesitate to crawl into a hole if she found one at the moment.She cast her gaze to the floor, feeling too ashamed to look the receptionist in the eyes again. She didn't even want to argue with her; the sincerity in
Diana alighted in front of their villa and walked briskly. She was very confused about where to go first. The number of things running around her head at that moment was uncountable. All she knew was that she needed to get things done. In fact, she needed to get things done really fast.What she was expected to do instantly was to go straight to Granny and give her the report of where she was sent and inquire about the scary news that reached her.With the last statement Granny made, it was very obvious that she is the cause of the sudden news.But Diana had a different target. She's the type that doesn't easily let things go. Even in this very terrible moment for her family, she just wanted to fulfill her target.What was the target?She had in mind to have a war of words with her mother for deceiving her. She had insisted not to go for the submission but her mother was the one who remained adamant with her decision. She had also supported the decision with enough persuasion to make
Hastily, Diana and her mother reported to the large living room of Granny. Fear had gripped their hearts since the maid had delivered the message.They both rushed close to Granny whose gaze was fixed on the floor, lost in thought. They halted at a bit of a distance from her and were quite worried about the mood they found her in.Tony and other members of the family were in the living room too. Their eyes were on the duo, who looked so confused and clueless about what was going on.Elena and her daughter were bewildered by the dead silence in the living room. Even a graveyard wouldn't be that quiet.Elena had tried to assume what had happened before their arrival or what they might have discussed before their arrival, but she couldn't come to any conclusion.She shifted her gaze to the left side and her eyes caught a horrifying face. A face filled with horrible and screaming irritation. A face that glared at her, with daggers, swords, and other sharp objects in the world.It was Tony
