2024-10-29 19:42:56Everyone, there was surprised to hear what he had to say. They had been waiting for the arrival of the CEO of the Marcos family company for a long time. Especially, Roselyn, she looked for him everywhere but didn't find him at all. Especially with everyone wearing masks, and she also didn't know what the CEO looked like. But he appeared suddenly and saved her. Right in front of her eyes.
Tradlor chuckled. "You think I believe what you're saying?"
"Why not?"
"You're wearing a mask! You could be pretending right now and lying to all of us."
"I'm not lying," he insisted, "I'm the son of the Marcos family. I am the CEO."
Tradlor's laughter grew louder along with his mockery. "I am also a son of the Marcos family! I'm a CEO!" he exclaimed. "Everyone can make claims."
He chuckled in annoyance. "Is this your nature? So pathetic...."
"Look, I don't believe you, and don't be a jerk!"
"Robert!" he shouted. And he came over to Edward.
"Yes, Young Master?" He bowed his head in salute to Edward. And everyone there widened their eyes in surprise, including Tradlor.
"Take him out of this party. I don't want to see his face here," Edward insisted.
Tradlor's face paled. He screamed, loudly, as he was forcibly dragged away by the guards. And that proved that he was the real CEO.
Roselyn thanked him once again and she was grateful that he had helped her. But she had been feeling uneasy because his voice was so similar to Edward's.
She shook her head. There was no way that Edward was from the Marcos family. Obviously, it was impossible because they were two different people. This man was from a rich family and Edward was from a poor family. He couldn't even afford the hospital fees, let alone a party this lavish.
He was the heir to the Marcos family throne that Edward was talking about. And this was the only chance for him to talk about cooperation.
"Uh, sorry, but do you have time to talk to me?" asked Roselyn. “There are a few things I want to talk to you about. I've been looking for you since earlier."
"Oh, you were looking for me? I didn't know that. Sorry. I just arrived and greeted the guests. And happened to see you being harassed by that guy," he said.
That's right. Their voices were the same. But this one was more authoritative and gentle.
Roselyn shook her head. "No, it's fine."
"So, what did you want to talk to me about? Want to go somewhere more comfortable...."
"No, we can talk here," Roselyn said quickly. She was still afraid that what happened to her earlier would happen again. It was safer to talk in a place where there were many people like now.
"Alright. I'm listening."
Roselyn took a deep breath before speaking. "It's about cooperation. I heard that your company is looking for a construction company. And I happen to own a construction company and am interested in cooperating with your company."
"Oh. Yes, I am indeed looking for one!"
Roselyn smiled widely. "Is there still a chance for me to get that cooperation? Because I really want to get it because it will help my company get through its crisis."
Just then, her cousin came in her beautiful dress, looking beautiful and hot. All eyes were on her. And one of the guests talked about her beauty and intelligence.
"If it's about intelligence, I think she's much smarter and deserves the deal."
"Yes, it wouldn't be fair if you just gave the deal to her. It's better to give it to her cousin since she's much more talented."
"Right. If you give the deal to Roselyn, you'll end up losing instead of gaining."
Everyone was more likely to defend Roselyn's cousin than her. And Roselyn felt cornered, but she was not afraid of her cousin.
Roselyn’s cousin grinned in satisfaction at how people were more interested in her and not Roselyn. She walked with her beautiful body toward Edward.
"What they say is true. You better give the deal to me. I am sure you will not regret it," Roselyn's cousin said. She looked at Edward with a seductive gaze. Making Edward shudder in horror at her annoying attitude.
Roselyn made an annoyed face. Moreover, she was pushed by her cousin intentionally so that now she was standing behind her cousin. But she hurriedly nudged her cousin's shoulder and they stood side by side.
Cousin Roselyn gave her a sharp glance. "You wouldn't give the deal to her, would you? She has no experience in the business world. And I'm not sure she can do her job well. She's just a spoiled woman."
"I'm not a spoiled woman and I know what my capacity is. I wouldn't have come here asking for cooperation if I didn't know how good I am at my job," Roselyn said. But her cousin snorted in annoyance. She mocked her.
"Even taking care of your husband is incompetent. Let alone taking care of a company," she taunted.
Roselyn clenched her hands into fists. She felt offended by her cousin's words. Where did she come from and destroy the opportunity she had been waiting for? And everything was ruined just because of her arrival.
Roselyn looked at Edward who was silent. She couldn't read his thoughts from his face because he was wearing a mask. And he looked very mysterious.
"Sir, you're not going to give him the cooperation, are you? I asked you first," said Roselyn not to be outdone.
"Hey!" snapped Roselyn's cousin. She wasn't having it and she wasn't about to lose to him either. She would do anything to get her cooperation, even by devious means!
"Enough," said Edward, breaking up the two. "I will not give this partnership easily to either of you. But in exchange. I want you to prepare a proposal for me to see who deserves this partnership!"

Roselyn was feeling very nervous after she met with the CEO of Marcosta Company. She had to prepare the best proposal she could so that the president would like her and give the partnership to her and not her cousin. And she would do what she could.The next morning, she immediately told Edward about the good news. But she also felt scared and anxious if she didn't get the project."So, did you meet with the president of Marcosta Company?" asked Edward with a big smile on his face."Yes, and today I will be coming to their company for a presentation," Roselyn informed. She touched her chest which felt rumbling. "But I feel uneasy if I can't win this project.""I'm very grateful to hear that and I'm sure you can get the project. You are very talented and smart. And the president can see how talented you are.""But still... I will also do my best to be recognized," Roselyn said."Don't worry. You will do well. I will pray for your success. And you will get what you want. Trust me.""Um,

"Young Master, when would you like to begin the presentation?" Robert asked Edward. "Has your wife's cousin arrived and where is your wife?""She is in the toilet. That's why I can come here," he replied, "I want you to go to the meeting room and be the examiner for them. And make sure you put a camera there so I can check the presentation from my office," he ordered."Yes, Young Master. I've already sent someone to do that because I know you're unlikely to come to the presentation considering you don't want anyone to know about your identity."Edward smiled. "Good job, Robert. You are indeed reliable.""Is there anything else I should do, Young Master?""Yes, it's about their presentation. Make sure that Roselyn gets the contract, and not her cousin. Because I know Roselyn much better than her cousin," he replied with a long sigh. "From the beginning, I wanted to give the contract to her, but her cousin screwed up and we had to have a presentation battle like this. It's annoying that

"What do you mean by talking like that?!" shouted Lily, sounding thunderous from the other end of the line. "You can't talk nonsense, Rubbish!"Edward swallowed hard. Remaining patient with everything his mother-in-law said. "I'm not talking nonsense, Mom. She's not here."If Edward was currently in the presence of Lily, his mother-in-law, perhaps he could see how red Lily's face was at this moment, holding back the anger that was exploding within her."I will find her," he said then."That's the way it should be. Besides being a loser you're also a useless husband!"Edward's ears were still ringing after hearing Lily's voice continue to shout, even though their conversation was only over the phone.Edward hurriedly searched for Roselyn. The only place he remembered was the restroom, because Roselyn had said that she would go to the restroom first before carrying out the presentation."She must be in the restroom," muttered Edward as he continued to walk quickly towards the restroom.

Briel froze where she stood with her eyes reddened, staring at the doorway. Roselyn had suddenly appeared there.In the end Edward managed to find Roselyn. As expected, Roselyn looked chaotic and unconscious in room number three.He was even willing to do a little violence to the male security who had previously blocked her. Luckily Roselyn soon came to her senses. She immediately hugged Edward."Welcome, Miss Roselyn?" Robert seemed to stand up while looking at Roselyn who was still standing in the doorway.He did not see any Edward behind Roselyn. It seemed that Edward had already returned to his room and would be monitoring the presentation through the monitors available in his room."Thank you, Mr. Robert."She stepped into the meeting room, approaching Briel who was still standing in his place.Roselyn who was standing right beside Briel instantly whispered, "I never thought that you could act that evil towards me.

A sedan car was traveling at a moderate speed on the city streets. Roselyn, who was sitting in it with Edward, had a glow on her face."Are you happy, Roselyn?" asked Edward."Of course, Edward. If you had not told me about Marcosta's company advertisement, perhaps this day would never have arrived for me. I feel that my life is much better. Thank you, Edward.""Of course."Roselyn forgot about her divorce plans with Edward. Right now her focus was on her success in securing Marcosta's cooperation and company.All the family members had gathered back in the hall. They were waiting for the arrival of Roselyn and Briel to bring the good news about the cooperation with the Marcosta company.They were anxious because neither Roselyn nor Briel had provided any information about the partnership."It's definitely Briel who got the deal," Carol, Briel's mother, said proudly, giving Lily a condescending look.Currently feeling anxious about her daughter's news.

The two news items displayed on the billboard in the center of the city immediately shocked the entire city. The townspeople were more interested in discussing the Marcos family, who had always been the biggest rulers in the city, as well as the Tarwar Construction Company's good fortune in securing the cooperation of the giant company, rather than just cheap gossip."Steel? Didn't we hear wrong?""So the new chairman of the Marcosta company is named Steel? I'm curious about his true colors.""That name seems familiar to me."Various comments were now even appearing on the Marcosta company's social media pages.Edward, who had returned to the Marcosta company, was now smiling proudly at the flood of positive comments on him."I never expected your appearance to take the whole city by storm," Robert said.Edward chuckled. "Moreover, I never dreamed I would be in this position."Who was Mr. Steel? Is he a young man or perhaps an old man? So far, the name Sarvour Marcos has always been

"I will never accept this decision, Grandma.""Come on, Briel. You should understand." Lady Senorita tried to reassure Briel, her favorite granddaughter. "After all, I never promised that the vice-chairmanship would be given to you. I only said that whoever succeeds in bringing the company out of the crisis will be eligible to become vice chairman of the company."It was actually not an easy matter for Lady Senorita to hand over the post of vice chairman in Tarwar Construction Company to Roselyn, and then announce it in front of the entire family.She was indeed a grandmother who showed favoritism. She had always favored Briel and Alan, Carol's children. While to her other grandchildren, she was mediocre.But now she must be able to act like a knight who keeps his word.Briel approached Roselyn who was still standing in front of the extended family.

The dark-colored sedan seemed to be traveling at a moderate speed on the city streets that were quite deserted because of the late night.Edward, the person driving the car seemed to be focused on the road ahead. While Roselyn, who sat on the left side of the front, and Lily and Javier, her husband, who sat in the back, seemed to be lost in their own thoughts."Hey, rubbish," Lily shrieked at Edward.Edward, who was used to being called that by his mother-in-law, immediately looked back through the center mirror."What did you call me, Mom?""Who else here is a trash like you? I wouldn't even say your name if I didn't have to," snorted Lily.Edward was actually infuriated by his mother-in-law's attitude. Even his father-in-law was sadistic to him sometimes, just not as often as his mother-in-law.If it wasn't for a big plan, and the story about the big enemy of the Marcos family who was targeting him and his wife, Edward might have made his identity public.

A maid was seen walking towards the indoor swimming pool inside the Marcos mansion.“Young lady, here are your bathrobes,” said the maid.“Thank you,” Maria said, and exited the indoor pool.She dried her body, then exited the indoor pool area on the first floor. While walking in the corridor while playing with her cell phone, she accidentally collided with a maid until the maid fell down.“Oh, sorry,” she squealed. But suddenly she was surprised because the maid was crying. “What's wrong with you? Did something happen?”The maid just shook her head while occasionally looking at Maria.

The next morning, a slow drizzle of rain fell, soaking the ground that had been prepared for Salvour Marcos' final resting place. The overcast sky seemed to mourn him, adding to the somber atmosphere that surrounded the morning. A deep sense of loss emanated from every drop of rain, as if nature also felt the departure of such a precious figure. In the midst of this sorrowful atmosphere, Salvour Marcos' body would soon be buried, leaving unforgettable memories for those left behind.Edward was still standing on the balcony of his room when Maria entered. Maria took her brother's hand and rested her head on Edward's shoulder.“Grandpa doesn't need your regrets,” Maria said, trying to revive her brother. “He needs you to stand up and show your strength.

A black sedan darted quickly through the deserted streets of the Town of Riverside. The rain was falling gently, like a whisper of sorrow that enveloped the night. The drops that fell from the sky brought a sense of sadness, as if nature was mourning the passing of Salvour Marcos, the revered patriarch of the Marcos family. Every drizzle that touched the ground was as if it were the sky's tears crying for the departed figure, making the dark night even more somber and silent.Inside the car, there were three women lost in their own thoughts. Lily, who was behind the wheel, tried to remain calm, even though her heart was raging. All she had in mind was a way to reconcile Roselyn and Edward. They must not get divorced.In the slow-moving car, Roselyn sat silently with a blank look, occasionally wiping her face with a tissue, wiping away the tears that continued to flow despite her best efforts to hold them back.

It was Maria.“I called you many times, but the operator always answered,” Maria squealed. “I remembered that you were going to see your wife, so I followed you here.”“But she didn't believe me, Maria.” Edward looked still depressed. “I had to go after her.”“No, Ed! Listen to me!”“No! I must go after Roselyn. She must see this evidence.” Edward's face was red with the pressure-filled frustration of his problems with Roselyn going crazy.“Stop dwelling on your personal problems, Ed!” Maria yelled at the top of her lungs and began to get carried away. “Snap out of it!

Why isn't there an escort for Miss Algren?” Robert asked in a high tone of voice due to emotion.All the security team as well as Miss Algren's bodyguards could only look down because they felt they had failed. Only one of them dared to speak because he was the one who found her lying on the floor of his office covered in blood.“So Alexander did it?” asked Robert.“Yes, sir.” The bodyguard nodded with certainty. “He was seen walking fast and did come out of the emergency exit.
