CIV. Rivalry and Teamwork
Leal Vêtement, that's how Geovensia decided to call her shop, and Essi approved of it. This shop became famous in the Pierre Shopping Center. Even other salespersons would like to visit and see what this shop has that turns into a distinct yet catchy one. The sought-out customer, whom they were never able to identify as Oneil, keeps on returning to that shop.
In the shop of Steffan Pingris, Jacques and Dahlia are brainstorming where they might get the direction of their sales wrong. Jacques thought of visiting Leal Vêtement without another disguise.
The shop owner still welcomed him. To his surprise, it was Essi who helped the owner to talk with the clients.
"Essi?" Jacques has the same reaction as Oneil.
The woman beamed while looking at his attire. The shop logo is on the side of his suit, pinned fashionably. Instead of earning a surprise reaction from her, Essi even welcomed him and promoted the items to him.
"Why are you trying to s

Geovensia finally accepted the ever eluded invitation of having dinner again with the Doltos. She will meet Corrine again. But it doesn't matter. This meeting has something to do with Oneil. This is how she can help Essi. Since her friend endured it for her business, Geovensia has to pay back by enduring it for Essi's feelings."You're the owner of Leal Vetement," Oneil said when they got away from the dinner."And the closest friend to Essi," she added. "You know what? I don't want to waste my time on this kind of dinner. But I wanted to do this to ask you something."Oneil glanced at her. "It must be about Essi.""Do you hate Essi so much that you have to make it hard for her?""Why does it concern you?""She's my friend. And you're trying to make another engagement with my half-sister. I'm in between but I choose to side with my friend," Geovensia replied. "And how rude to hear a response from you like that. You must be unprepared for thi
Look At Me, Oneil CVI. Business and Personal Matters
Oneil has been wrapped up on monitoring the progress of the branches and the strategies implemented by the companies under the Mercator Group. As if his time has been fully extended beyond industrial purposes, his grandfather didn't forget about bargaining Oneil's time to uncover about Jacques' career direction. He cannot even plead to Grant to give him another time because of his ordeal with Essi."Don't wait for me to know it by my own, Oneil," his grandfather warned.Oneil pined before resorting to telling the truth. In his mind, it is too bad for Grant to have a grandson that is almost the same as him. He will insist what is in his mind. "Grandpa, will you really make that company suffer?" he asked but the old man didn't respond. "Jacques entered a small shop and became the sales manager. If that shop will suffer because of us, I'm afraid of the backlash that we might earn."Grant scoffed before smirking. Jacques surely knows how to make his way smart. This
Look At Me, Oneil CVII. Unconsciously Chasing
Many of the target entrepreneur participants already reached out to the Mercator Group for their confirmation to join its anniversary celebration. But there is only one shop that has not responded to the invitation yet. The other committee officials are persuading Oneil to drop the chances for that shop to join them."You know that they are the leading apparel shop. Do you really think that it is worth losing them?" Oneil challenged."But sir, we are the Mercator Group. It is disdain to our image if we will go down to their level just to drag them with us. They should be the one chasing our company.""No matter how great we are, we are still bound to wait for others. Just tell me if you don't want to wait for them. I will do it on your behalf." Oneil knows that they are getting idle on this important aspect of the anniversary. But none of them would respond to him. "Let's not waste our time. I will follow up our invitation to Leal Vêtement."The mee
Look At Me, Oneil CVIII. Gentle Gaze
Oneil has finally met the man that is always at the mercy of Estella Ingrid Paulsson. Just as Jillian tipped him, Victor has that long face that could intimidate others. His posture leads others to think that he must be Essi's bodyguard. He was wearing his cold expression. But when he heard Essi calling him, he smiled and immediately walked towards her."Did I make you wait for too long?" Essi asked."Just so-so," Victor replied while volunteering himself to help Essi with her bag and coat. Jillian nudged him that he should not do it since Oneil is around.Oneil waited for Victor to give over Essi's stuff to him. But Victor insisted on holding it. He is in a pose to affirm his authority yet, Victor just passed by him."I don't think he would like that," Victor replied while covering Essi with his arm. It is a clear sign that Oneil shall not reign tonight for Essi's attention.Notwithstanding, Oneil planned of pulling the chair for Essi within the g
Look At Me, Oneil CIX. Looking For Her
Oneil committed himself to the tasks of supervising the progress of the anniversary preparation. All changes on the designs that he expected to be made throughout the week are visible. What he liked the most is the main entrance of the Grand Pavillon Mercator. The decorations are already set to enthrall and amaze the guests even just by passing through the halls of the conference dome. Walking past the halls, the large floor showcases the partner apparel shops that are almost on their completion stage of structuring their exhibition designs.Two weeks had already passed and Oneil couldn't deny expecting that Essi must have returned to help her friend. During these past few days, Oneil has placed his attention on nothing but to get the venue of the anniversary prepared more than ever. It is already on his priority list but his employees could notice how he wanted to accelerate the preparation. In their eyes, it must be because the chairman wanted Oneil to present how far he we
Look At Me, Oneil CX. A Punchline in the Corazon
Essi has returned. She must have taken his challenge seriously that Essi went back to Bordeaux the next day. Oneil found this news out from Gwyneth when she was talking to Essi via phone. He didn't react when Gwyneth continued talking with Essi under the pergola where he also stayed for a coffee break. What made him almost fall out from his seat was upon knowing that Essi is not returning alone but will be with the debate team winner. It is Paco and his teammates, a group of learners from the Philippines who are honed to practice law and social research. Since the debate has many private sponsors, the team will enjoy great prizes and even a trip to Europe. They will enjoy Bordeaux for three days before heading to Venice.Gwyneth is excited to meet Paco again. She pleads for Essi to bring her with them even just for the second-day trip. Essi reminded that the team had hired a tour guide but Gwyneth insisted on at least joining them.Oneil intended to sit right next to G
Look At Me, Oneil CXI. Hoping for Created Coincidences
Coincidences are but a hair's width in rarity to happen within the cosmos. With only Geovensia asking if Essi intended to send her staff to be part of Leal Vêtement”, Essi is in a space of no escape to admit it."I was trying to check if he would be annoyed by it," Essi's reason was rather on playing the waters to see if any of her moves would still make Oneil annoyed. But upon receiving the news on how Oneil got strict towards Leal Vêtement, her calculations are right. Whether she did something to Oneil or not, Oneil will still show up with a lot of questions towards her. "I have no choice. Wherever I go, he still reacts like that. I might as well just become more cooperative in these remaining days before the opening of the celebration."Geovensia nodded knowingly while looking at how Essi paints her ideas for the clothes. It is just the two of them inside the exhibition booth. Rain is outside to buy coffee for them. They may seem idle today but it

It is here, the most awaited event that Oneil has worked double-time with his team to prepare. He keeps on smiling with confidence. Along the seat of esteem arises his nervousness. It is not because of fright that he feels this way but rather on excitement. His grandfather has great expectations for the 50th-anniversary celebration of the Mercator Group. Oneil also values the event the most.He looks at his reflection with one of the great armors he has. It is a dark blue velvet suit specially designed by Mansha Amyrgia Santifaller for him. The lapel of his suit is shark fin grey. Wearing clothes as this has always allowed Oneil to live in the hall of the respected and the esteemed.It is typical for people to make way for him when he is around with this armor. But when he wore the same type last night after a meeting, it made one of Gwyneth's friends stunned to see Oneil. The boy seemed to know him well but Gwyneth stopped him from interacting too much with a busy per
