With a nod, the adviser set about carrying out his orders, doing his best to keep his demeanor composed despite the dread bubbling in his stomach.Over the next few days, he made a series of questionable purchases, using Avery's company card. From a yacht rental to a trip to a remote island, he ensured that the receipts would paint a damning picture when presented to the board of directors.At the same time, Raphael was working behind the scenes, discreetly planting rumors and whispers about Avery's misuse of company funds.The whispers spread like wildfire, causing the flames of discontent within the company. The board of directors began to take notice, and soon, rumors of Avery's imminent removal began circulating.In the midst of all this, Avery was unaware as she was so focused on her work and plans on how to bring back the company's glory once Blue Silver Entertainment Company pays her for emerging their winner, she trusted the adviser to handle the welcome party preparations as
During the board meeting the following day, Avery suggested the idea of joining the Female CEO association, which gathered mixed reactions from the team.Raphael, with his trademark mockery, derided Avery’s suggestion. "How can someone afraid of making decisions lead this company?" he scoffed.Avery, unmoved by his remark, calmly retorted, "I never said I was afraid of making decisions. I'm a leader, not a boss.Raphael's face reddened, his body tensing with anger at Avery's cutting remark. "You're not fit to lead," he hissed through gritted teeth, glaring at her with venomous eyes.But Avery, to the amazement of her staff, remained composed and unflustered. She gave a small smile, and continued, "But I'm doing it perfectly already,"As Avery maintained her confident demeanor, Raphael seethed internally. "We shall soon see what a leader can be reduced to, bastard," he muttered under his breath, venom dripping from every word.With that, he stood up and left the boardroom while the mee
At precisely noon, Jeremy's Uber pulled up to the company's front door, and Avery stepped out to join him looking more relaxed. "I'd love to eat a traditional dish today. I miss spicy food and there's a newly opened fancy restaurant down the street," Avery said calmly.As the Uber sped through the city streets, Jeremy smiled at Avery's suggestion, eager to please his wife. "Any dish for the world's best CEO," he said, delight dancing in his eyes. "Spicy and traditional sounds perfect."Avery smiled back, her mood lifted by her husband's playfulness. "You know how to charm a girl, don't you, Mr. Jeremy?" she teased.The Uber driver, silently observing the love and respect between the couple in his rearview mirror, couldn't help but think to himself, "They're a perfect match, these two."As the Uber pulled into the parking lot of the traditional eatery, Avery and Jeremy stepped out. A trail of sleek, high-end cars rolled into the parking lot, turning heads and drawing admiring glances
Avery was lost in thought as they walked out of the eatery and boarded an Uber, "I don't know what possessed me to make such a bold claim to Cynthia," Avery snorted with self-deprecating humor. "How am I supposed to come up with the funds for an expensive car by this weekend? It's impossible!"Jeremy sending her worries, placed his hands on hers, with a reassuring smile playing on his face, "I'm sure we can figure out something before then,"Avery took a deep breath, the weight of the situation pressing down on her. "Noah and Steve's money won't be enough to buy an expensive car, and even if it was, it would be foolish to waste that kind of money just to impress people who never fail to find fault with me," she said, rolling her eyes. "The money from Blue Silver Entertainment is vital for the company's revival, and I won't jeopardize that for something as shallow as pride."As Jeremy sat in the backseat of the Uber, his thoughts were consumed with finding a way to solve his wife's ca
The moment Jeremy left Alaxin company, he headed to Blue Silver Entertainment Company, there was no need to disguise himself with a Mask since he wasn't going for an official meeting.As Jefferson turned away from his computer, he was surprised to see Jeremy standing in his office. "Good day, sir," he said, recovering quickly. "You could have called if you needed to speak with me. There was no need to come all this way.""I wanted to talk in person," Jeremy replied, his tone suggesting that this was not a casual visit. He took a seat opposite Jefferson, his gaze unwavering.Jefferson leaned forward in his chair, the curiosity on his face now mixed with a touch of concern. "Is everything alright, sir? Is there something urgent we need to discuss?"Jeremy nodded. "It's about the A-X9 from Alaxin. I need it delivered to The new CEO of the Williams company within 48 hours. I understand that might be difficult, but I'm willing to compensate the company for its trouble."Jefferson's express
The deal day came for the Female CEO association get-together, As Avery boarded her Taxi heading for the Venue, Jeremy could see the sadness in her eyes even though she was trying so hard not to let it show and be optimistic about the future. Jeremy, eager to buy time for the manufacturing company had failed to deliver as promised due to importation delays and tried to dissuade his wife Avery from attending the lavish party. "Babe, you don't need to go," he urged. "We can join them when we're financially stable. We don't need to impress those scumbags." Avery smiled at her husband's concern, unaware of his motives. "I'll be fine, honey," she replied with confidence. "I'm going to the party for the company's sake, not to show off. "Besides," Avery added, her chin held high, "if anyone dares cross my path, I'm strong enough to give them a piece of my mind." Jeremy nodded, appreciating her determination but still feeling uneasy about the situation. "Just be careful, okay? Cynthia a
As Avery smiled and was ready to bounce on the two lovers with her words, she saw Jeremy who had just walked in across the room. He was looking at her, his eyes filled with pride and admiration, She quickly replaced her fury with a calm smile, "I'm sorry if my success and happiness offend you," she said, straightening her shoulders and meeting the gazes of the two lovers. "But if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go and enjoy the party with my husband.""I guessed he came here with another Taxi and a borrowed suit to make you feel important," Cynthia mocked loudly, still seething from the insult Avery had given her. Avery gave her a last stare, mockingly shook her head with a smile playing on her lips, and without saying a word, walked to where her husband was.Cynthia who felt so insulted by Avery's action, hurriedly walked to the podium ready to make Avery and her husband a public ridicule, Snatching the microphone from the startled M.C., she addressed the room, her voice brimming w
"This car model isn't even released yet!" one of the onlookers exclaimed, his words ignited whispers and murmurs throughout the hall.Avery's mind was racing as she tried to make sense of everything. The Alaxin A-X9 was a highly exclusive car that had been generating news in the automotive world for months, and yet here it was, sitting in the parking lot, gleaming under the lights. How had Jeremy managed to acquire such a car?Jeremy was already anticipating Avery's question and had prepared himself for it as usual, he turned to her with a smile and whispered, "Blue Silver Entertainment Company added it to the rewards you were getting from them. They had arrived a few minutes after you left the house to deliver it and since you were not around, I had accepted it on your behalf," Jeremy explained."I thought it would be best to drive it down here to shame your enemies," He said in a humorous tone That left Avery's mouth wide in surprise, and at the same time she was so excited. "They o
