Wilna was a little surprised by Thomas's decision—not that there'd be cooperation, of course, but that Helena would be at the meeting and signing the contract between Nakia Group and Intel Corp. Rumor has it that Nakia's CEO has returned from his studies."Is this okay with you, Mr. Thomas?" Wilna asked, looking a bit surprised at what Thomas had just said."You should know how to handle it if this becomes an issue. Don't you think, Wilna?"Dealing with Thomas Edison, who was both good-looking and devilishly annoying, made Wilna very patient. If it weren't for her sense of responsibility and dedication to her work and her friendly relationship with Helena, Wilna would have probably resigned by now. Wilna was tired of having to deal with Thomas and his sometimes cynical, wishy-washy remarks."Alright." Wilna decided to go along with it. "I'll let you know right away if Helena can make it to the meeting tomorrow.""If it's needed..." Thomas rested his chin on his hands. He looked at Wil

"I just found out that Thomas Edison is very handsome," Olivia said, complimenting Tiara on the lunch she organized.Tiara thinks the contract between Intel and Nakia will go smoothly today. To mark the occasion, she invited a number of her social contacts, including the wives of successful young entrepreneurs, to attend. One of them is Olivia Blanket, who's married to Intel Corp's IT manager. Her husband was there this afternoon to sign the contract with Nakia.Tiara, who had just sampled the appetizers, was eager to share her thoughts on Thomas and his palate. But she didn't want to bring up Helena's name. It was none of her business, anyway, right? "You're right. Thomas is definitely a good-looking guy, Mrs. Olivia. But how can you say that when your husband has something to be proud of besides his looks?"Olivia laughed at Tiara's joke. "You're right. While Mr. Thomas is certainly attractive, he is not in a position to cover all my expenses. Am I his wife?"Tiara couldn't help but

Ultimately, Arslan decided to go for the extra point, despite some of his teammates expressing reservations. He said, "I have the best team to get the job done right. Just an additional point won't change the essence of this cooperation contract."And so they signed the contract. Before Helena signed the contract, Arslan noticed the name on it. Was it Helena's name on the contract? Arslan had also remembered Helena's name when they first met, went through some civil procedures after they got married, and she was only a witness, not a recipient, in those cases. Arslan followed his mother's advice and decided not to use Helena's name when it came to the wealth he had accumulated, whether it was property or vehicles."Adelia Helena E ... Oh my God," Arslan muttered, still in disbelief.It was the same name that Arslan knew. However, the title "Helena" was enough to surprise Arslan. So, Helena had a Master's in Economics?"Why is she keeping that a secret?" Arslan thought to himself."You

Arslan put down the glass of wine he'd just finished in one go, rather abruptly. The sound of the glass hitting the table was pretty loud, and it got everyone's attention in the club's VVIP room. His tie was a little loose, and his shirt was rumpled, showing that he was going through a rough time. His reddish eyes, wild and unfocused, scanned the room as if searching for something that wasn't there.This club is a great place to go if you want to get away from it all. It's very private. Arslan found out about this place through Tiara. She told him that as a young businessman, he needed to network outside the office. Maybe this is the place to meet up with business partners and talk strategy, or just unwind with a few bottles of expensive drinks.Andy, the experienced bartender, watched Arslan with a look that said he was worried about him. "You seem to be thinking about something pretty serious," he said in a calm tone as he kept mixing another drink."I don't need your opinion," Arsl

The next morning, there was a real sense of unease in Arslan's office. Tiara and her dad, Deny Jacob, were waiting in the meeting room to talk about the next project with Nakia Group. They were eager to meet with Arslan to discuss a crucial matter that he had decided on without consulting with the Jacob Group."I need to hear a reasonable explanation, Tiara," Deny Jacob said, clenching his fist. He looked at his future son-in-law's study with a bit of an annoyed expression. "If he can't give a clear reason and outline the next steps in this cooperation, it might be time to question Arslan Tan's credibility in leading Intel Corp."Tiara could tell that the man next to her was holding back his anger. Her father wasn't the easiest person to negotiate with if he didn't agree with something. Tiara was also surprised to find that the contract she thought was going to be a breeze had other requirements. While it wasn't a major issue for her, she also needed to consider the sustainability of

"She's having an affair, Arslan."Tiara's words echoed in Arslan's head again. Like a nightmare that haunted Arslan in the last days. He didn't want to remember Helena's whereabouts, but the most reasonable assumption came from Tiara. If Helena was Nakia's CEO and the youngest daughter of the Edison family, why would this woman go to the trouble of hiding her identity? How ridiculous.At a time when many women out there were competing to show off their family status, on what basis would Helena hide that?"She really cheated on me?" Arslan clenched his fists. He was very angry and felt betrayed by Helena's innocence and simplicity all this time. "For status and a guaranteed life after we split up? Oh my!" Arslan tapped him hard on the forehead. It caused pain, but the man ignored it. "Is that why Helena refused my check? Because the amount in it was not comparable to what the President Director of Edison Group gave her?"Arslan laughed sadly, unable to believe that Helena played the ro

"How did the Intel factory inspection go, Wilna?" someone asked. His voice was firm, so Wilna gave a clear and simple explanation that matched the facts."As far as we can tell, the program was processed with high accuracy, and we didn't run into any major issues, Mr. Thomas. "Everything's under control, and I think the extra responsibility Arslan Tan is taking is why we're able to keep such tight control over the chip creation process.""Good, then," he said. "Give me a full report and don't leave anything out.""Yes, sir." Wilna let out a soft sigh. Her workload was increasing day by day, but she was happy to get stuck in. This was part of the job she loved. If you love what you do, it's not work. That's what Wilna believed."Just make sure Helena doesn't talk to that man for too long. I'm still concerned that Arslan might try to contact Helena again."Thomas Edison was very close to his sister. Wilna was certain that Helena's situation was also affecting Thomas's feelings. Thomas'

"Miss Helena, we've arrived," the driver announced as he pulled up to the hotel lobby. The auction was held at a five-star hotel in the city center tonight. It was exactly what Helena expected an auction event to be like—a bunch of people from different businesses. In the past, Helena had gone to events like this with Thomas or with her father to meet with his business partners. But she wasn't looking to stick around and mingle with other people for too long. It wasn't that she didn't like it, but Helena felt there was no sincerity, only a desire to support each other's businesses.Eventually, Helena realized that this is how people who play a big role in the economy operate. They meet, see eye to eye, and form new partnerships. They exchanged greetings and kept an eye on each other. If you're not careful, you'll get overtaken by a company with more authority and a bigger role. And it's all thanks to the connections made at meetings like this."Thanks, Hans.
