Noah, recovering from his initial surprise, strode confidently towards the senior officers, his expression shifting into one of charm and pride.

"Wow, what a display of force," he said, his tone smooth and flattering. "The commissioner sent you all here too? I must say, the criminal doesn't worth that much.I assure you, your junior officers are more than up to the task of apprehending him."

Noah, his confidence growing, continued his attempt to charm the senior officers who stood there watching him without uttering a word. "In fact, I'll be sure to call the commissioner and thank him personally for sending such a highly skilled group of men. This is a real honor for me, and I appreciate the extra measures that have been taken to ensure the criminal's capture."

Mr. Williams, his voice swelling with pride and reverence, chimed in to praise Noah. "When I say Noah is the man, I mean it. I am so proud of you, my future son-in-law. Your power and authority in this town are truly formidable

    As they stepped out into the bustling streets, Avery put a gentle but firm hand on Jeremy's arm, her expression now tinged with concern. "Are you sure we should be doing this? This is one of the most expensive malls in the city, and we didn't exactly plan for a shopping spree," she cautioned.Jeremy, his smile unwavering, took her hand in his, their fingers entwining. "My love, don't worry about a thing. Today, we're going to forget about budgets and stress and just enjoy ourselves. Trust me," he said, his voice full of reassurance.Avery, her concern for the future evident in her voice, persisted. "I'm serious, Jeremy. We can't just throw money around like it grows on trees. We should save it for something important, something that will benefit us long-term.

She was feeling many things all at once.Avery couldn't help but wonder if there was something they were doing wrong. Why did they always seem to run into trouble? It seemed like no matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't catch a break. Avery felt like they were stuck in an endless cycle of conflict and misunderstanding. She didn't know what to do or how to make things better.Mr. Snow's voice dripped with venom as he spat out his threat, his face twisted in a mask of menace. "You think you're so smart, huh? If you don't get out of my sight this instant, you'll be without a job before you can blink," he growled.Jeremy, however, stood his ground, his expression a picture of calmness.

    Avery, though taken aback by the exorbitant price tag of the dress Jeremy had selected, had full faith in her husband. In the past 48 hours, she had witnessed firsthand the unfolding of events that had changed her mindset, and she trusted that Jeremy wouldn't have chosen a dress he couldn't afford.As the doubtful onlookers gawked at the extravagant garment, Avery turned to Jeremy, her expression one of calm assurance. She didn't need to question him; she knew, deep in her heart, that they would find a way to cover the cost. Amidst the silent stares of disbelief, Avery and Jeremy's exchange was that of a dance, one directed to perfection. Their subtle nods, discreet eye movements, and faint smiles were enough to communicate their unwavering confidence in one another.As the stunned crowd looked on, Jeremy moved towards the sales assistant, his steps showing a quiet authority that had been absent in the face of Mr. Snow's rant. "We'll take this dress," he said, his tone decisive and

    Jeremy's declaration thundered through the air like a lightning bolt, electrifying the onlookers and silencing the whispers that had been circulating only moments before.The crowd gasped, their collective shock rippling through the store. The cashier, her face a mask of shock, stammered, "A-all of section 56? Sir, are you sure?""I've never been more sure," Jeremy replied, his voice ringing with conviction. "Ring up the purchase," he instructed, his gaze meeting the cashiers. "My wife deserves the best."A hush fell over the crowd, the onlookers staring at Jeremy with a mix of awe and disbelief. But he paid them no mind, his attention focused solely on the task at hand.The crowd buzzed with confusion, their questions reverberating through the store like wildfire. "Has Jeremy lost his mind?" "Does he even know what he's doing?" "How could a taxi driver possibly afford to buy an entire section of high-end clothes? He can't even afford the dress, let alone the whole section!" Thei

    "This man must be insane if he thinks he can use us to further his goals," yelled one of the onlookers. "How can he claim to have such an enormous amount of money and yet act so modestly?"Jeremy, who had just presented the cashier with the credit card, remained unfazed by the crowd's reaction. His expression was calm and collected, exuding a sense of confidence that seemed to mock the onlookers' skepticism.Jeremy's eyes were locked onto the cashier's hands, which trembled slightly as she held the credit card. Clearly, she was the only person in the store besides Jeremy who understood the immense value of the card. Her gaze darted to Jeremy, her face betraying disbelief at the sight of such a simple-looking man possessing such an extraordinary piece of plastic. In her mind, the cashier questioned how a man of such average appearance could have come into possession of such a priceless card. She had only seen one other person with such a card, and he had been a man of great wealth.T

    After several minutes of anxious waiting, the cashier returned, this time accompanied by a woman of distinguished poise and commanding presence. Her immaculately tailored suit and aura of quiet authority marked her as none other than the CEO of the establishment.The crowd quieted down at her arrival, the cashier's presence now eclipsed by the unmistakable authority of the CEO. Her eyes scanned the scene, taking in every detail of the commotion that had unfolded in her store.Before the CEO could utter a word, Mr. Snow, buoyed by the crowd's support, seized the initiative and launched into a swift condemnation of Jeremy. "Good day, madam," he said, addressing the CEO with a formal nod before turning to point an accusatory finger at Jeremy. "This fraudster here came to shop with his wife using an obviously stolen card, and for the betterment of your establishment, I suggest he be investigated thoroughly."The crowd murmured their permission, their whispers lending confidence to Mr. Sn

    The crowd stood frozen in stunned silence, grappling with the revelation. The CEO, her face still an impassive mask, bowed her head in deference to Jeremy, returning his card with a gesture that seemed almost respectful.She knew that the Black Card was not easily acquired. It was the symbol of wealth and power, reserved only for the most influential and powerful families. Jeremy's possession of such a card confirmed her suspicions that he was hiding his true identity. He was, in fact, an offspring of a prominent family, one that held immense power and influence.As the truth settled over the crowd, murmurs of disbelief gave way to whispers of speculation. The store, once filled with the enthusiasm of anger, now buzzed with a different energy. Who was this man, and Why could he afford such an expensive collection?

They were all conspiring against her just to bring her down.And speaking of Mrs. Cherry Lawson, she had never met the woman before. She first met the woman at the grocery store.

Jeremy asked again, his eyes looking convincing as he encouraged the doctor to repeat his words."Yes, I'm very sure and I regret every minute of it," the doctor said with the same certainty and determination.As he thought about everything that had happened, he regretted that he had been a part of it.An evil plan to disgrace a woman in such a way was never something he would normally get involved with, but because of the way they had packaged the story for him, he had thought he was doing the right thing.But now that the truth had come out, he had seen the costly mistake he had made."So you are saying the Senator's wife, Mrs Jesse, who spoke for Mrs Cherry Lawson, had something to do with this?"

I can't believe it," Jeremy said, his heart filled with anger and clear despair."He is evil, Mr Jeremy, and he should never go unpunished. I was deceived and I'm sorry I was ever a part of it, but his involvement is something else entirely and something should be done about it," one of the women said with a snarl, her voice trembling with emotion.The fact that the doctor was involved and looking for a way to remove himself was something that still baffled her."I'm sorry Mr Jeremy, I know you don't trust me or anything, but w

The Lawsons were known to be on their own and do not engage in public fights except when necessary. it was a great disgrace to the family name. Why would anyone do such a thing?"I know most of you doubt what I'm saying, but I'm too big to come in here and lie about her condition,"Doctor John muttered, his eyes narrowing at the other man who claimed to be a doctor.He wondered why a doctor would lie about a patient's medical report when it wasn't true.
