"Do I have to congratulate you too?" Jane asks casually, leaning back. She adjusts the chair she's sitting in to make her back a little more comfortable.
"No," Fabian laughs. "I've been getting that congratulations since two days ago."
"Your event is quite successful for the opening of this branch." Jane smiles faintly. "Compared to when you opened a branch in Hills Flower, I think the public's interest is more towards Long Island."
"You should understand that Long Island is not just a stop before entering other cities in this Western part."
Jane understands that. Long Island is also known as a tourist destination with many unique and interesting attractions. This makes tourists always decide to stop for a while and enjoy the day here.
Although not a fashion center like in other big cities, Jane believes that Fabian has his own calculations for why the SEO boutique is here. Looking at the collection sold specifically in Long Island, it's somewhat d

"Should I congratulate you too, huh?" Jane asks, leaning back. She adjusts the chair she's sitting on to make her back a little more comfortable."Nah," Fabian laughs. "I've been getting those wishes since two days ago.""Your event was quite a success for the opening of this branch," Jane smiles thinly. "Compared to when you opened the branch in Hills Flower, I think the community's more into Long Island.""You should understand Long Island isn't just a stopover before entering other cities in the West," Fabian remarks.Jane gets it. Long Island is also known as a tourist destination with lots of unique and interesting attractions. That's why tourists always decide to stop by and enjoy their day here. Even though it's not a fashion hub like in other big cities, Jane believes Fabian has his own calculations for why the SEO boutique is here.

Calysta waves her hand over her face. Repeating it again. Just to get rid of the heat and anger that's been haunting her. The feeling doesn't diminish even though she's tried to divert it."Damn it!" Calysta throws the glass she used to enjoy her favorite wine. This is the third glass, but her anger still hasn't subsided. Making her engulfed in an edgeless irritation. "Watch out, Jane!"She breathes heavily out of emotion. "And you too, Giselle. Especially you, Kate!" She clenches her fists. "Damn it! Damn it!"She then collapses onto the soft couch available. Leaning back while supporting her head there and letting her eyes stare at the ceiling of the room. The shadow of the dinner earlier comes back. Especially when the words of a Jane Oliver, made anyone at the table silenced."Don't you think? When your marriage spread throughout the country, where previously Austin had just divorced his unworthy wife, didn't your status become a question? Were you pr

"You're not sleeping yet, Sula."Ursula scowls in annoyance. The man she's been waiting for finally appears at the door. His face looks tired but the mischief in his eyes is still there. Even so, Ursula is very relieved and actually very happy to see him. At the dinner party earlier, they couldn't really chat freely."You took too long, Rich. Does your boss really can't handle his own work?" She covers the joy in her heart with harsh words."Don't you want to ask me in first? I've been struggling with numbers and endless reports," Richard complains with his shoulders slumping weakly. Intentionally. Baiting Ursula with a mournful face is his specialty."You're exaggerating." But then, Ursula opens her room door wide. "Come in. I didn't make coffee if that's what you want right now."Richard chuckles. "No. I need to sleep early. What time is our flight?""Are you really able to take time off?" Ursula asks, surprised. "I'm not doubting you, but

The journey back from Long Island, for some reason, makes Kate's smile not want to leave. Even though she only met Jane during the dinner, at least she made sure firsthand what the woman was up to. And how those around Jane accepted her. Kate is truly grateful for what happened.She doesn't care much about Calysta. Her son's new fiancée is just following for the sake of profit. And sure enough, Calysta really took advantage of that position perfectly, even though... ah, if Kate could laugh freely, she might have done it since the dinner.Jane is starting to show her fangs."You look happy, Mrs.," one of the guards says. After making sure the lady is comfortably seated in the car picking her up at the airport. He's tasked with accompanying the great Don William's wife while she's away from her home."Yes, you're right," Kate smiles thinly. "I'm feeling happy."The car speeds through the road towards the airport exit. Heading straight to her r

"I've talked to the journalist you're supposed to meet," Hans says after placing his report on Fabian's desk. After yesterday's inauguration event, almost all layers of the SEO staff were at their busiest. There was a lot to be done, especially in the marketing and publicity division. Two big SEO events that were almost back-to-back significantly contributed to increasing sales turnover.Hans has been overtime countless times due to the workload and emails from Fabian."When can I meet them?" the boss asks without looking at his interlocutor. His hands and eyes are busy examining and reading the report that Irena sent via email."In a week. I've also heard about their reputation; they're very good at twisting facts."Fabian's hand movement stops briefly. Then a chuckle escapes uncontrollably. "Isn't that good?""Um, but, Boss, I think you also need to know one thing. He's too extreme in writing news. Many say he's an ambitious journalist who wants

"Uncle, how's it going over there?" Calysta asks while enjoying the freshly squeezed apple juice she just made. It hasn't been long since Austin left his unit to go back to work. The short vacation to Long Island, which Calysta found annoying, is over. Nevertheless, she has a specific mission to fulfill. She won't let everyone who underestimates her feel happiness."No problem. The folks from Goojoo Enterprise visited yesterday as you suspected. But we were prepared here. Don't worry about the reports that will reach your future husband." Marcel laughs over there.Calysta heaves a relieved sigh. "Thank goodness if you've anticipated it, Uncle. We have to go about it this way until Austin appoints me to replace Kate Don William as one of the commissioners. It's not something quick, but I think Austin will definitely do it."Marcel's laughter is still audible from there. "You're really playing the role very well, Calysta. Uncle is proud of you."Calysta's s

"I didn't expect Austin to trust that easily," Samantha couldn't hide her excitement as she and Calysta were at Jills Boutique. Occasionally, she asked the counter staff to showcase the latest collections. As usual, both Calysta and Samantha weren't too keen on listening to explanations about the items. For them, if it's limited edition, not many people have it yet, and it's unique with its own characteristics, that's more than enough to make a purchase. Then it would be used when the time is right; among a group of women or wives of conglomerates who never run out of ways to flaunt their wealth."I'm glad Sams Group is back on its feet," Calysta smiles thinly, weighing which bag she should take with her. "I think Austin should've done that, right?""Well... even though a few times people from Austin visited and conducted surveys. But it's okay, I've been prepared all this time."Calysta turns and gives a fleeting glance, but then looks back at the bags to see w

Fabian named his car Merry. Jane didn't want to ask where it came from. But what always piques her interest every time she sits in the passenger seat next to Fabian is a longish display box with a ship inside it. It sways along with the car's sometimes unstable motion.The screen on the ship unfolds with a skull symbol wearing a straw hat."We'll be there soon," Fabian informs. "Are you tired?""If you'd asked when we were still in the lobby, would you have stopped your desire to take me to meet someone?""No," Fabian responds with a grin."Why do you ask?" Jane chooses to tease while giving him a sideways glance. "You are quite the selfish boss.""Tomorrow and the day after, you're free from me during the daytime, Olive. I promise that. I'm busy for the next two days.""I don't trust your words, Fabian. You're more often off track than actually sticking to your words."Fabian chuckles. He steers his car to the shoulder of the
