I continued, "But there was a breach of contract, and I regret that. However, Ms. Eleanor handled the aftermath exceptionally well. She assured me that if needed, she would go all out to coordinate with the leading distributors and act as a bridge for us. "After all, I made it clear that this involved construction materials. Although the breach disrupted our plans, fortunately, it didn't result in any losses." Of course, Andrea wasn't buying it. She played hardball, saying, "The villain has finally got a chance to turn things around, right?""Mrs. Andrea, it's not about me turning things around. It's about you losing the best opportunity!" I stared at her, confidently stating, "Otherwise, Surface Solutions would’ve been the supplier for the entire new Bourdamun project. Unfortunately, you messed up a good hand."I directly shifted the blame to Andrea, making Vernon regret deeply and exposing Andrea's true colors."After that incident, your friend Liora used it to propagate again

Arriving at the restaurant, I finally called Atlas. It turned out he was also having dinner with some guests. Surprised by the quick end of my meeting, he asked, "Why so soon?"With a triumphant tone, I replied, "It didn't go well. I just wanted to stand up for Eleanor, and she vented the anger that has been building up all these years.""Oh! Impressive! You messed up the meeting, yet you're still so happy. Should I come over? I'll have Dylan pick you up," he asked tenderly, his tone filled with indulgence.Eleanor looked at us with envy."No, thanks. Eleanor and I are at the seafood restaurant. We're in the mood for fish. Once you're ready, come and pick me up. We'll be waiting here," I told him."Alright, see you later," he said before we hung up.We ordered the fish we each wanted, chatting about the earlier events while enjoying the unique seafood. It was a delightful time.As we were about to finish, an unexpected incident disrupted our peace. Suddenly, a person appeared in

One of the guys closest to him suddenly made a move, saying, "Who the hell are you? How dare you stick your nose in our business?”To everyone's surprise, Arton swiftly caught the punch coming at him before he twisted and pushed him down the aisle. The guy ended up colliding with Kimberly.She staggered but steadied herself quickly. Infuriated, she roared, "Why are you afraid of him? Attack him together! That’ll teach him how not to meddle in other people’s business.”A few rough-looking guys rushed toward Arton.The restaurant was in chaos. Diners who were closer scattered hurriedly, forgetting about their meals.I took advantage of the chaos to pull Eleanor close to me.It was impossible to leave at this point, and I couldn't do that anyway.Eleanor was scared stiff, her face pale. "I'm fine, Chlo. Stay away and don't get involved."The men grappled with Arton, but they were no match for him. He had grown up fighting brawls and was fearless.Soon, the men were all on the gro

Just then, my phone rang. I quickly answered when I saw it was Ivanna. "Hey.""How are you?" Ivanna exclaimed, "You scared me!""How did you know?""How could I not know? It's all over TikTok!" She exclaimed, "What happened? Where are you now?""I’m fine now. I'm at home," I said calmly. "I ran into Kimberly, then Atlas came.""Oh my goodness. The Terrell family should all be locked up. They’re all so full of themselves!" Ivanna rambled on the phone, and I heard Lauren’s voice faintly in the background."It's alright. Don't worry," I reassured her. "I'm fine now, thanks to Charlie’s dad. He saved me before Atlas arrived."As I spoke, I glanced at Atlas. He was holding me and gently touching my face.After I hung up, Atlas called Dylan to remove some things from the internet. It seemed that someone had taken the opportunity to leak some information about what had happened.My phone kept on buzzing. I could tell everyone was concerned about my safety.The next day, I bought a f

I scrutinized her carefully. Honestly, she was beautiful, but there was a hint of naivety about her. She had a subtle lack of sharpness that I couldn't quite put my finger on.Her answer was affirmative. I gestured and said, "Let's go to my office."Carol quickly brought us another glass of water when she saw us return.I gestured for the girl to sit while I took a seat on the sofa.I looked at her and asked, "Why are you here to see me?""Ms. Chloe, Ms. Trinity asked me to tell you that she and Ms. Stella are visiting the Avila family," she informed me."The Avila family? What else did she say?" I asked urgently. "When did she tell you that, and why didn't she call me directly?""She didn't say anything else, and she couldn't call you directly," the girl replied calmly. "If there's any new information, I'll come see you. Also, she gave you this as evidence for the trial."As she finished speaking, she handed me a tiny USB flash drive.I quickly took it, laying it in my palm t
