"I feel that today's discussion and meeting have been more than sufficient. If there's a need for revisions or additions later on, we can reschedule to discuss them in the next meeting. Certainly, Akasia has conveyed standards that are no longer negotiable." "In that case, we, the Velfare team, agree with what has been decided. We hope that it can now proceed to the process of signing the collaboration agreement." Randy then stood up. Extending his hand, he invited his business associate to shake hands before parting ways. Kennedy was also present. They chatted for a few moments, then chose to go their separate ways. "Do you want to ride with me or what?" Kennedy asked Randy before leaving the restaurant. "I brought my own car, Ken. You go ahead. Besides, I have to pick up Ghea first." "Okay, then I'll head back first. Send my regards to Ghea." 

"How about it? Are you still mad at me?" Ghea shook her head. She smiled faintly, then took another spoonful of the big-size Gelato ice cream in front of her. She thought her husband would 'kidnap' her and take her to some unknown place. Instead of being taken to the mall, a shopping center, or an expensive restaurant, Randy brought Ghea to one of his favorite ice cream shops. Whether it was a coincidence or the result of gathering information from someone close to her, after being overwhelmed by anger earlier, Ghea's emotions were gradually fading. Every time she felt angry, irritated, or overwhelmed by emotions, Ghea had an effective way to calm herself down: eating ice cream or going to sleep. These two methods had always been her go-to, even into adulthood. "For this time, Uncle, I forgive you. But don't think that if you make a mistake again tomorrow or anytime in the future, I'll forgive you ju

Darwin and Kennedy stared incredulously at Randy. For the past fifteen minutes, the two of them had been sitting in a coffee shop, only to find their cousin behaving like a lunatic. From the moment he arrived until now, his lips were unmistakably curved in a perpetual, unending smile. In reality, Darwin and Kennedy shouldn't have been surprised. It wasn't the first time Randy had acted randomly or annoying. Occasionally, out of the blue, their youngest male cousin liked to invite them to meet as if there was something important to discuss. And when they gathered, instead of talking, Randy would spend time in silence, not uttering a single word. "Ran... if there's nothing important, Kennedy and I might as well head back. We don't have time to wait for you to come up with something to say or a story," Darwin stated. Kennedy, seated next to Darwin, nodded. Even she, who was busy with her phone, intended to go home if Randy

"Ran, do you remember the schedule for later this evening, right? There's a dinner invitation from Mr. Prasodjo and his associates." Randy, who was busy reading a report at his desk, immediately looked up. A moment later, he nodded, responding to Stella's question. "Yeah, I remember that invitation," he replied casually. "I've been reminded to attend that event for quite some time now." Stella then took a step forward, closing the distance between herself and Randy, who was still seated at his desk. "I'll be going to the event too. Luckily, Max and Ferdinand also got invitations. Want to go together as usual? I can pick you up if you agree. Plus, after the event, Ferdinand wants us all to relax for a bit at HollyShow." Randy smiled, shook his head after a moment, politely signaling his refusal to Stella. He certainly didn't forget that last night, before going to bed, he had trie

Mario: Don't forget to come. Mom and Dad are definitely waiting for you, Ghe. Your sister has already called Randy to make time to accompany you tonight. Ghea sighed deeply while reading the short message sent by Mario. Tonight, there's a celebration party for her step-parents' 30th wedding anniversary. Actually, Ghea is really reluctant to attend the event. She believes that her stepmother wouldn't want to see her there, especially at a wedding anniversary party that is always considered sacred. Ghea is self-aware. She never forgets that her late mother was once a thorn in the side of her stepmother's marriage. And because of this event, she has always been the scapegoat for that mistake. Moreover, last night Ghea already went to an unpleasant party, meeting someone who ruined her mood. That's why, to attend again tonight, it feels like she has to think twice. "Why don't you go,
