How dare you hit my son?" Uncle Howard's protest, he can't see his son was hit by this useless son-in-law."I will do anything to protect my wife. I will not let anyone say bad things about her," Nicko replied."Huh! How arrogant you are? Do you know where Josephine could get such a big investment if she didn't seduce the new director. Or maybe this was your idea, because your stupid wife said you suggested coming to the Richmond Group.

The Pride 33. Gift to Armando
With the same dressed style, the hazel-eyed young man entered the Richmond building for the second time. This time, his visit looked different, because the whole office looked respectful to him.It seems that what happened to Laura and the two security guards yesterday was a lesson for them. The employees stopped their activities and stood up and bowed respectfully to Nicko for now. They do this because they don't want to lose their job, or embarrass themselves and make them lose prestige, like Ms. Dean.Actually, Nicko wanted to fire Laura yesterday, but seeing the dedication that has been given to Richmond so far, it is enough for her to get a second chance.

The Pride 35. Why Me?
The blonde woman seemed not excited about her work. Even so, she still tried to be professional.Feelings of resentment led to rage in her mind, every time she saw Damian talking to Grandma. The more often she saw them, the stronger suspicion was that Damian's position had been planned in advance."It sucks," Josephine thought.She still remembers the conversation with her husband last night. How could the man she cares about said that she will no longer need the position of general manager anymoreShe felt disappointed with Nicko, this time.
