Javier’s promotion to the position of vice general manager ruffled Terry’s feathers. It prompted him to snatch the opportunity and show off his hard work and accomplishments, even requesting an increment and better benefits in the process.He believed that everyone at the table shared his sentiment, so he felt that he would definitely have their support. Reality proved that he was right but he had not expected Javier to step up in the final moment and voice out his disagreement.“What right do you have to disagree? You got promoted to vice GM with that meager investment you managed to pull in based on your sh*tty luck. Did you hear us say anything about that?“Ask everyone here today. Which of us hasn’t worked diligently all these years? Which of us hasn’t put in hard work and the merits to show for it? The total contributions from any one of us are greater than yours!“And you want to voice a disagreement? Did you even ask if we agree with you becoming the vice GM?!”Terry’s word

Javier put down the phone in the security booth and turned to see the security guard giving him a thumbs up.“Awesome, man. This is the first time I’m seeing a supplier threatening a purchasing manager. You’re the sh*ts!“What a pity you aren’t a robber. The police would have to run if they see you otherwise because you’re absolutely the sh*ts!”Ignoring the guard’s mocking, Javier left the security booth and found a rock to sit on in the shady area outside of the building. He pulled out his phone to call Ciara.“Ciara, I’ll send you the company’s name. I want their company’s list of tire orders. Don’t disclose my identity…”Javier had no wish to come into contact with his family, for now, so he left it to Ciara. After the call, he pulled out a cigarette and lit it up before puffing on it leisurely, not at all looking remorseful that he had just offended a purchasing manager.The security guard looked at him from afar like he was looking at an idiot, unable to understand which un

Having boasted really loudly but being unable to afford the car was simply embarrassing, but Zack, who was a master of such scenarios, was not at all fazed by an awkward accident like this.“There’s no hurry. One can’t just look at the honor of buying a car. There’s a vibe too. I’ve got to pick one that matches my vibe.”As he tried to pave his way out of the embarrassment, he walked around and browsed through the other cars. Looking at the price tags placed atop the cars, Zack was distraught when he saw none cost less than hundred thousands of dollars. However, refusing to show his distress, he shook his head at the GLS with his fingers clasping his chin.“Nah, I don’t like the 9AT gearbox.”When Zack came to the G500, he put on a deep frown. “What the heck is this? Its corners are so angular that it looks like a coffin. What a bad omen…”The man did not even stop in his tracks when he passed the performance line of the brand, the AMG GLE-class. “I don’t like coupes. Horrible com

The call that Jade had received in the meeting room earlier had been from her mother, Catherine Nance-Odell, who had urged her to return home.The moment Jade opened the door, Catherine hurried up to her and spoke urgently, “Jade, your Uncle Matthew’s here to ask you to get married again…”“I know, mom. You told me on the phone. Don’t worry.”Soothing Catherine, Jade entered the living room and was greeted by Matthew Odell who was sitting on the couch, smoking with one leg crossed over the other.“Uncle Matthew, according to the agreement I’ve made with the family, there’s still two months before the end of the quarter. What are you trying to do by coming to our house and forcing me to get married?”Matthew frowned instantly. “What do you mean forcing you to get married? Am I doing that? This is for your own good. I’m doing this for my niece’s sake!“My elder brother passed away early and left the two of you all alone. I want to find you good in-laws so both of you mother and dau

With his advance being shot down mercilessly, Zack was too embarrassed to keep trying. However, it seemed that they were quite fated as Javier and Ciara went into the room opposite of Zack’s. When Javier turned around, he caught a glimpse of Kendrick who was toying with his phone inside.With a quick ponder, Javier, who had also come from a huge family, understood the situation instantly. The Odells had tried to get some sort of benefit out of arranging a marriage for Jade, but the latter had refused. So Kendrick wanted to find out about Jade’s business direction through Javier, but he had turned the man down.Hence, Kendrick contacted Zack who was decently acquainted with Jade, wishing to find out the same thing through him and secretly sabotage Jade, so she would go along the family’s wishes and get married when she failed to fulfill the quarterly deal.Despicable motive and a shabby move, Javier thought. Their family was not even that influential, what was the point of playing al
