Chapter 4: Steve and Tony
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Do you think he'll agree to it?" Steve
inquired."Absolutely. It's an enticing deal. Why would he pass on it?" Tony confidently responded.
Steve furrowed his brow slightly and asked, "Couldn't we have chosen a more impressive location for the meeting?"
"Jeremy rarely leaves his house, so I thought an enchanting evening at an art exhibition would be a refreshing change for him," explained Tony.
"Refreshing?" Steve scoffed. "How is an art exhibition refreshing? It's just a gathering of pretentious individuals staring at paintings, trying to decipher abstract concepts that nobody truly comprehends."
"Just because it may not be your cup of tea, Steve, doesn't mean others won't find it engaging," Tony retorted, his attention focused on navigating the road. They were en route to Jeremy's Estate on the outskirts of the city.
Steve and Tony were among the handful of close friends Jeremy had. Steve possessed an exuberant and outgoing personality, while Tony emanated a calm and composed demeanor. Together, they made a dynamic duo, particularly with Steve's knack for livening up any occasion.
Entering the house, they discovered Jeremy comfortably seated on the sofa, fixated on the glass of Scotch in his hand.
"Hey, man," Steve greeted.Jeremy wearily turned his gaze towards them, then back to the glass of Scotch.
"You didn't inform me of your visit," he mumbled."I assumed we were always welcome," Tony interjected as he took a seat. Meanwhile, Steve wasted no time pouring himself a glass of Scotch.
Jeremy despised when these two made themselves too comfortable in his home.
"I never explicitly stated that," Jeremy replied, his frown deepening.
"Well, you didn't need to. Your warm nature speaks volumes," Steve sarcastically quipped, relishing in riling up Jeremy. The amusement on Steve's face at that moment was priceless.
Ignoring Steve's antics, Jeremy turned his attention to Tony.
"We're here regarding the partnership with Razor Tech. All the details have been finalized, but they would like to meet you in person before returning to Singapore. I took the liberty of arranging a suitable meeting place," Tony explained.
"And where might this meeting place be?" Jeremy inquired.
"It's an exclusive art exhibition party," Steve chimed in.
Disregarding Steve's remark, Tony sought to provide a more enticing explanation.
"It's the highly anticipated annual Arts Exhibition Program. The artwork on display is both exquisite and valuable, with pieces imported from around the world. If you're interested, you could even consider purchasing a piece. Trust me, it promises to be an enchanting evening."
Tony urged, hoping to persuade Jeremy. Before he could elaborate further, he heard Steve yawning and remarking, "Boring... it'll be a snooze fest."
"Well, what do you suggest, Steve? A meeting at a lavish strip club?" Tony retorted, his annoyance evident. He couldn't help but lament having such a friend who never seemed to know when to be serious.
"Yeah, now that sounds like a blast. Let's do that instead," Steve jested, raising his glass of Scotch in jest.
Tony simply shook his head, feeling a sense of disappointment in himself for keeping a friend like Steve.

Melissa had everything ready for the party, thanks to the helpful staff members Sasha had hired. It seemed that the woman didn't dislike her as much as she initially thought. Just as Melissa was immersed in her preparations, her phone vibrated in her pocket. She retrieved it and saw Nicky's name on the caller ID. Curious, she answered the call. "Hey Nicky, what's up?" Melissa greeted her friend. "Where are you??" Nicky's voice came urgently from the other end of the line. "I'm at work, as I told you this morning. You know I have to make sure everything is ready before tonight's party." "Yeah, I know that, and that's why I'm calling. Remember, you were supposed to meet me and Sam to pick out a dress for the party," Nicole reminded her, excitement evident in her voice. "Well, just pick one for me. I still have to supervise some things over here." "Alright, but don't blame me if I choose something you don't like," Nicky giggled mischievously. Before Melissa could say anything else,

"Alright then, I'll get everything ready for you." *****Jeremy settled into the passenger seat of the sleek black Rolls Royce Phantom parked in front of the estate. Dressed in a splendid royal blue suit that perfectly showcased his physique, he was ready for the party. "How long will this take?" Jeremy asked, his voice tinged with impatience. "Probably a couple of hours, maybe three," Tony replied. "Three whole hours? God, that'll be torture," Steve groaned as he opened the other door of the Rolls Royce. "What are you doing?" Jeremy asked, his tone casual. "I'm getting in," Steve replied, momentarily puzzled by the question. "Get out," Jeremy stated ma

"Oh no," Steve lamented, reaching for his glass of brandy and taking a sip. "It seems the unfortunate waiter has fallen into the clutches of none other than the city's notorious diva, Diana Woods. "Poor guy." Jeremy was no stranger to Miss Woods.

Melissa stepped out of the hotel, needing a breath of fresh air to clear her mind after the intense confrontation. She berated herself for the impulsive decision to involve herself in the world of the wealthy once again, having learned the hard way from past experiences. Rich people never made empty threats, and now she found herself questioning the consequences she might face. "What have I gotten myself into?" she cursed under her breath. However, after reflecting for a moment, she resolved to return inside and salvage what was left of the evening, determined not to let fear dictate her actions. "I believe it's time for me to make my exit," Jeremy announced, standing up from his seat. He had grown weary of the social gathering, preferring the solace of his office to these extravagant events. "Thank you for taking the time to meet with us," Mr Quin politely acknowledged. "Certainly," Jeremy replied, shaking hands with Mr. Quin before making his way out of the hotel. As he wal
JEREMY NOBODY Chapter 11: Diana Woods
Chapter 11: Diana Woods Diana paced restlessly in her opulent bedroom, her mind consumed by the aftermath of the party. Social media had erupted with criticism, painting her as the villain while glorifying Melissa as the courageous heroine who had come to the rescue of the poor waiter. Normally, Diana wouldn't care about such trivial matters, but the fact that Melissa had stood up to her in front of everyone wounded her pride deeply. She was determined to make Melissa pay for daring to challenge her. With that in mind, she had already enlisted the help of a private investigator to dig up personal information about her nemesis. Diana knew she had to be cautious, as she didn't want to unknowingly provoke someone of higher status than herself. Imagine her shock when she discovered that Melissa was a mere nobody. Just a 26-year-old girl from a middle-class background, who had grown up in Brooklyn and moved to New York after her release from prison last year. Diana couldn't hel

"I still can't believe you met Jeremy Nobody," Nicole exclaimed, her eyes filled with excitement. "Yeah, I did. And you know what? I think he actually liked my painting," Melissa replied with a sense of wonder. "Wow, that's amazing," Sam chimed in. "Did you tell him it was yours? You know, with the whole made-up artist name and everything," Nicole asked, rolling her eyes playfully. Melissa paused for a moment, contemplating her response. "Well, I didn't think it was relevant," she admitted. Nicole scoffed. "Are you kidding? God, you should have told him." "What's the use of telling him? We'll probably never meet again, so..." Melissa trailed off. "Because then he would know he was talking to a goddamn freaking amazing artist. You never take credit for anything, and you're crazy talented," Nicole insisted, her enthusiasm unwavering. Melissa couldn't help but smile at her friends' unwavering support. "How could I have remembered when the moment I looked up at him, I almost forgot
