Dylan sighed as he knew that he could not truly extend the launch ceremony date again.

He looked at Bright Kingston's face and said, "That's fine. You can leave my office. I will be there tomorrow at the hotel used for the launch ceremony."

"Alright, boss," Bright replied, and he exited Dylan's office.

Bright knew that all was not well with his boss, but he couldn't ask Dylan about it, so he left and went back to his own office. He remembered that Dylan hadn't even concluded on the driver yet that he had found for Dylan.

Bright stared at the man waiting for him in his office, as he had other clients to meet with. He told the man that was in casual outfit, "You will be contacted to resume by Monday, but first give your contact details to my secretary.

    Rosie sighed out in relief after she heard what Dylan said. She relaxed her back on the couch and asked him, "What time is the event?""This afternoon by 12 PM," Dylan replied, as he also relaxed on the couch.

How I wish that I was the true owner of this house."Rosie frowned, and Dylan met her gaze and said, "Oh! I don't know why it's taking Jessica so long to call the maid.
