When the lady pointed her finger at Mia, accusing of carrying the drugs, Jeremy felt like his head would explode; he couldn't believe what the lady just said. His fists got so tight, his knuckles started turning white.“How dare you point at my little girl and accused her of such an nonsense!, you claim to be a professional but you're just an amateur,”he said, feeling his blood boiling. He could feel his heart beating super fast in his chest wanting to smack the lady so badly, that made his heartbeat fast like a drum.However the lady wasn't moved by Jeremy's words.She kept talking. She had a mean smile on her face, and her eyes were small and cruel.“Oh you're now angry because I finally caught you in your plans, You thought I wouldn't know?”she said, sticking out her chin. She tapped her name tag with her short red fingernails. “Tap, tap, tap.”“I have been doing this job for many, many years. I know when something is wrong! and everything about all of you, just confirmed to me
Upon hearing what the lady just said. saying the picture and everything she had just showed her were fake, she couldn't believe it. At that moment, Avery's eyes grew huge like saucers. Her face got even redder than a tomato. Her hands started shaking so hard that almost made her dropped her phone. “What did you just say?” she yelled, slamming her hand on the desk again with a BANG!. “How dare you say these are Photoshopped! These are real documents! you didn't even check or try to confirm, yet you opened your mouth to say they are fake.” At that moment Avery gaze becomes very intense. “ Do I or my husband look like people who would be playing games” Her heart was beating so fast she could hear it in her ears. Jeremy at that moment didn't say a word, he knows what he's going do, but his gaze was still on his watch and his mind was divided, not wanting to be late for the meeting and same time he wants to deal with the lady so badly, but then his eyes was still on
One of the bystanders who had gathered at the scene, a woman with a sour look on her face, spoke up. "Who knows what kind of abuse this poor girl has suffered? Those crazy people might be using her to sell drugs," she speculated, casting a judgmental eye on Mia. Avery, was quick to defend her child. "Don't you dare say such things about my child!" she said, her voice rising in anger. "Just because you would use your own children for something like that, doesn't mean I would." Avery, her face flushed with anger, turned back to confront the lady. "The only reason I haven't slapped you silly is because you work for the government," she snapped, her voice trembling with rage. The woman, with a smirk on her face, faced the crowd and continued her tirade. "You can all see how violent she is! It's further proof that she's involved in drugs. I know I'm right about this," she declared, her smugness almost obvious. Avery, her patience fraying at the edges, retorted with a sharp tongue. "
Jeremy and the rest of the people in the room turned their heads to look at the door. A group of men had just walked in, led by one man who was clearly the boss. He was wearing expensive clothes and looked very rich.The man in the middle of the group walked slowly into the room, his eyes scanning the room with a cold, calculated gaze.The man's presence filled the room, commanding attention even without a single word. His expensive cologne lingered in the air, and his demeanor was that of someone used to being in charge. Despite his seemingly rushed entrance, he exuded an air of power and confidence that made it clear he was not someone to be trifled with.The moment the lady spotted him, she hurried out from behind her table and rushed towards him. She quickly bowed her head in respect."Good day, boss," she stammered. "I had no idea you were in the city or coming to today."The onlookers murmured amongst themselves. "He must be the owner of this place," one of them speculated. "She
As soon as Avery pointed at the woman, the woman quickly dropped to her knees and began to apologize to Avery and Jeremy. "I'm so sorry for my behavior! I didn't know you were telling the truth," the woman pleaded, her voice filled with regret.Avery's anger was clear as she scolded the woman, her voice full of frustration and disgust. "Listen to yourself! You accused innocent people of lying just to feed your own ego," Avery snapped, her words sharp and unforgiving. "You don't deserve my forgiveness and I wish I could punish you and this nosy crowd who don't know how to mind their own business," Avery yelled, pointing her finger at the crowd, who looked scared and started to disperse, fearing that Jeremy might punish them too.The Boss approached Jeremy with a look of remorse on his face. "Please accept my deepest apologies for the behavior of my staff. It will never happen again," he said, bowing his head in contrition.Avery's anger remained unabated. "The fact that it happened at
After finally arriving in the United Kingdom, Jeremy headed for the meeting with the foreign clients because he couldn't miss it. He asked the person who was sent by Jefferson to take his family to the hotel while he rushed off to the meeting. He was late because of a delay at the airport, and he didn't like being late or having problems because of other people's mistakes. That was why he let Avery punish the woman who caused the delay.Jeremy was already two hours late for the meeting, so he knew he had to hurry. Jeremy understood that the foreign client had likely tried to reach him during the flight, but his phone was turned off due to the flight regulations.As the car came to a stop in the parking lot of an impressive skyscraper, Jeremy could deduce that the foreign clients were likely one of the most important companies in the United Kingdom, based on the prominence of their building.As soon as he stepped out of the car, a man who seemed to have been waiting for Jeremy's arri
"Now, Mr. Nathaniel, you need to give us good reasons why we should keep working with you. If you can't, we'll have to go with Mr. James," The CEO said.Mr. James gave a small laugh. "I've been in this business for a long time, and I'm very good at what I do," he said to Jeremy. He was indirectly telling Jeremy that he was better than him.Jeremy felt insulted by the men's attempts to belittle his abilities. The fact that Blue Silver wouldn't be affected by losing these partners made him even angrier. The only reason he was willing to endure their insults was for his father. He didn't want his father to be upset when he got better and found out that one of his oldest partners had left."I understand your hesitation," he said, his voice firm but respectful. "But I can assure you that Blue Silver is not only the most experienced in this industry, but also the most innovative. We are always on the forefront of new technologies, which means we can offer you the best solutions for your b
“This was not our agreement!” The boardroom erupted in commotion as Mr. James pounded the table with his fists, venting his rage with every crash. The CEO, visibly irritated by the outburst, spoke with a thunderous tone. "I don't understand. What was our agreement?" he demanded, his voice resounding throughout the room. Mr. James shouted, his voice quivering with indignation. "You promised me that you would be partnering with my company! That's why I canceled all of my other agreements with other companies. You lied to me!" The CEO sighed in exasperation, his expression turning dark with annoyance. "No, I never told you that," he countered, his voice steady and firm. "I clearly stated that we had multiple partners and that we would choose the best among them. You must have misunderstood me." The conversation quickly devolved into a heated argument, with Mr. James continuing to press the CEO for answers, while the rest of the board watched on with mounting tension. "You're trying to
