Edward glanced sharply at the woman's service. There was an ID card hanging from the woman's neck.“So your name is Rose? Really, your words have upset me,” Edward said. “It doesn't match the meaning of your name.”His intention was to buy jewelry, but he was treated badly at night by this waitress named Rose.Suddenly, two security guards entered the store. “Show us who is the person who wants to rob this shop!” screamed a security guard while girdling his waist. “Him!”Fred, a male waiter who had earlier expressed his thoughts about Edward being one of the robbers to Kelly, now stood up and pointed directly at Edward.Edward was surprised to be pointed out directly like that. His eyes narrowed to stare at the male servant. “What do you mean by accusing me like that? I clearly did not come here to rob but to buy jewelry.”Some of the shop's patrons, along with people who happened to be passing by on the street in front of the shop, immediately gathered to watch the incident.“Don't
Five minutes later, right at the entrance of the Glamorous Jewel Gallery, a Bugatti La Voiture Noire suddenly stopped. Then two other cars stopped in front and behind that car. Twelve bodyguards in black suits got out.They held black leather briefcases in their hands. Their muscles were tense, their faces were serious, and they were all cold and deadly, and even the atmosphere around them became terrifying.This scene greatly shocked the entire audience of the Glamorous Jewel Gallery. They immediately whispered.“Where did these big men come from?”“Perhaps the man who looks like a dirty hobo is not lying.”Seeing such a big show, Kelly was also surprised. She said to herself, 'Is that really the person the dirty hobo called? But now that I think about it, how could that be possible?!'Everyone was so shocked that their jaws dropped open when they saw Mr. Robert get out of the Bugatti La Voiture Noire and walk into the Glamorous Jewel Gallery.Kelly immediately got up to greet him, b
Seeing that Edward looked doubtful, Robert immediately said to him, “Young sir, since he intends to give this jewelry freely as an apology to you, please accept it. Otherwise, he will not even be able to sleep at night.”Edward turned to Robert, then nodded gently: “Well, then I will accept your gift. I thank you.”Seeing Edward accept the necklace of pure white gold set with rare red diamonds, Donald immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if he could escape the pursuit of the grim reaper.If Edward did not accept this necklace, he was really afraid that Robert would not let him go. With his power, Robert could easily destroy someone.It was his loyalty to the Marcos family that made him quite respected. Being the number 1 confidant of the Marcos family, besides Miss Emily of course.At this moment, Robert asked Edward, “Young master, would you like me to take you home?”“No.” Edward waved his hand and said, “Where is the back door? I will go through the back door myself.”“
35.Andrew turned his head in the direction of the voice. His eyes immediately sharpened at the sight of the man who was his rival for Roselyn.“You? What are you doing here?” Andrew squinted his eyes, especially since the suit Edward was wearing looked very ordinary. “Aren't you a poor man, how can you be at a high-class banquet like this?”Edward smiled faintly then extended his hand first, shaking hands with Andrew, and said coldly, “I came here to accompany you, Roselyn. I am her husband.”The tension in the air instantly rose in the courtyard in front of Diamond Heights Palace. Andrew's face turned pale at Edward's words. He never expected that Roselyn would choose to marry Edward.Briel leaned toward Alan and pulled him back. “What do you mean by introducing Roselyn to Andrew?”“I wanted to put a strain on Edward and Roselyn's relationship, after all, back in college Andrew had pursued Roselyn and Edward knew about it.” Alan explained in a whisper.Briel's face instantly bright
Inside a special room with luxurious decorations and a large screen inside the Diamond Heights Palace, Jason Falcon was laughing loudly at the opera performance of the lowly people in his eyes.“What a lowly performance,” he muttered.Meanwhile, Kyle, who was also watching the events on the big screen, straightened his back.He said to himself, 'Isn't it Roselyn who got the cooperation with Marcosta's company? But why is Briel the vice chairman of Tarwar Construction Company? There must be an act of sabotage,'As the owner of Diamond Heights Palace, of course Jason Falcon had access to every corner of the hotel, including he who
The crowd of banquet guests seemed to explode in an instant, and no one expected Emily Algren to say such a thing.This sudden change left everyone dumbfounded.“This news is bound to explode. Anything related to the Marcos family always attracts people's attention.”“This is a big disaster for the Jhonson family. They have offended the Marcos family.”“What an interesting show. Let's see how deep they will fall.”The guests again exchanged comments with each other. Lady Senorita's face paled instantly and asked with a feeling like she had just been dropped from a great height, “Dear Miss Emily, what's going on? Is there something in the Jhonson family that has made a mistake?”Today, she invited all the businessmen from all walks of life in the town of Riverside who had a good reputation, hoping to take this opportunity to become famous in the town of Riverside.It was true as the people who were talking said, that today was not happiness for the Jhonson family, but a great disaster
From the moment Roselyn first contacted Miss Emily, she had activated the loudspeaker button so that everyone gathered in the park could listen, especially her family.No one would have guessed that Miss Emily's reply sounded painfulRoselyn furrowed her brow. “But why, Miss? Has my family made a mistake?”“Yes. And what they have done is a fatal mistake,” Miss Emily insisted.“Can you tell me what that was?” asked Roselyn in confusion.“As originally agreed, our chairman awarded the contract to Tarwar Construction Company because he saw you, Miss Jhonson,” said Miss Emily with a sigh. “If in the end the hotel construction project was to be entrusted to someone other than you, Miss Roselyn Jhonson, we should have canceled the contract.”Now Roselyn understood what all the fuss was about. Roselyn turned to her grandmother who had a pleading look on her face.“Miss Emily, my grandmother has changed her decision and I will be promoted to vice chairman of our family-owned company, in charg
At Carol's family home, she was a little overwhelmed by her daughter's attitude, who had been sulking and not even wanting to eat since her cancellation as vice chairman of the company.“Come on, Briel. You're not a child.” Carol was still trying to persuade Briel who didn't want to eat. “At least grandma didn't remove your position. Alan is waiting for you to go to the office together.”“I don't want to, Mom! I'm even sick of looking at his face.” Briel imagined Roselyn sitting in the vice chair with an arrogant style while pointing at her like a street dog. “I want to calm down.”Carol gave up on persuading her foolish daughter for not getting up to retaliate. She left Briel's room to return to the dining room.“What do you think?” asked Roman, Carol's husband. “Does she want to come down here and have breakfast together?” His face looked worried.Carol just shrugged her shoulders and smacked her lips. She didn't want to say anything because she was also upset about everything that h
