While travelling home in the car, Gennifer asked her husband, "How did you know, Marvin?""I followed you. Because I was worried about you, honey.""Do you believe that I'm loyal to you?""I always do. I'm stalking you, not because I don't trust you, but because I don't want anything to happen to you." In fact, Marvin knew all the contents of their conversation just now, it was just that Marvin pretended not to know."Don't get angry."Marvin smiled slightly and replied, "I'll never be mad at you. But I am angry with your family. They've gone too far with you, dear." When he thought about the rest of the Winston Family, Marvin was very upset. Until now, they still had the heart to treat Gennifer inappropriately.Meanwhile, Gennifer bit her own lip while thinking hard. He remembered the figure of "Mr Rock" from abroad whose business reached trillions of dollars.Out of curiosity, he asked, "Honey, is there a relative of yours overseas who is very successful? I heard that he is building
"I don't think my wife could say it because she was so excited." Marvin turned his gaze towards his father-in-law and said, "Father, if Winsoil gets a full year's worth of crude oil from Rockxill tomorrow and also gets permission from the government, then Gennifer should immediately be appointed secretary or better yet director, so that she can supervise incompetent subordinates."The problem lodged inside Roderick's skull was now being aggravated by the tirade of this babbling son-in-law. He leaned back again to calm the contents of his head that was about to burst.His black heart and the tangled threads in his head had blurred his eyes to see the bright light. Marvin's talk was like a light that would illuminate the darkness of the Winston Family.Currently, Winsoil also had a severe financial problem even though they had nothing to do with the bank, the reason being that the bank was also unwilling to lend them funds, especially in large amounts.Marvin is still waiting for Derick
"You're incompetent!" cursed Marvin on his mobile phone. "You said you wanted to invest! Liar! You're embarrassing your father's business, Demian!" Marvin giggled.In the meeting room, all eyes were on Demian. Awkwardly, he said very quietly, "I'm sorry.""We? You alone are at fault! Your father and your family business are not at fault. So, blame yourself!""Alright, I'm at fault, Mr Rock.""Seriously, so you cancelled the fifty EM investment? Your mouth is big like a girl, and your courage is small like a sissy. If you're really a man, prove it, will you?"Demian shuddered and cold sweat slowly poured out of his body. Not satisfied that he had received the news that the G10 Enterprise was loose, now he was extremely embarrassed. His face felt like it wanted to fall to the floor."But, fortunately your father is kind and smart. G10 Enterprise will invest that much money. You're a fool, a company worth a hundred, but you invested half of it. Do you often play online gambling?""Hm, I'
In the living room, Russell gave vent to his excitement. "Mr Zavier has sent two Rockxill men to see me. We had a long conversation about co-operation."Feeling successful, Russel finally asked his father to be appointed to the company's board of directors.However, his father had not yet agreed. "Your sister, Gennifer, went to Rockxill's office this morning to meet Mr Zavier in person, it was because of your sister's efforts that Rockxill was willing to send that large supply of oil."Having just found out, Russel was quite surprised. "Did father send her to the Rockxill office? Why don't I know that information?""No, it wasn't. It was Marvin who told her to go to Rockxill's office to see Mr Zavier. You were still at the office yesterday afternoon, Russell, so you didn't know about our conversation."Therefore, Derick had not been able to shift Russel's current position to a higher position. Instead, Derick had given Gennifer a strategic position as Winsoil's secretary.Russel's for
Marvin cheered, "Honey, congratulations on your success in saving your family business. As we all expected, you'll succeed." Marvin glanced at Russel who was still scowling.At this moment, Derick and Elena did not dare to comment. They both also realised the truth of Marvin's words. If it was one time, it might be a coincidence, but this was the umpteenth time, and there was no way it could be called a coincidence anymore.Marvin looked at his father-in-law and said, "How was the magic I performed, Father? But I wouldn't call it magic or a coincidence, but rather faith, trust, hard work, gratitude, and of course being patient. Right, brother-in-law?"Derick certainly did not want the happiness on this day to be eroded because of an argument with his son-in-law. Although in his heart there was a renewed sense of trust, his mouth was unable to say it.Neither could his wife. When she heard the enlightenment from Gennifer, slowly but surely the trust grew, but the other part of her hear
This morning at the function hall of the Chemisland Central Government Office, in the capital city of Gloriston.More than three hundred seminar participants attended, ranging from student representatives, campus officials, the government itself, as well as well-known business people.A man who works on the staff of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources delivered the content of the seminar on the topic of "The adverse effects of coal use". There were several important points in the delivery:Firstly, burning coal is one of the causes of global warming. Power plants using coal release more greenhouse gases such as CO2 and N20 than other power plants.Second, it causes air pollution and acid rain. The combustion also produces SO2 and NO, if these two harmful compounds react with water and oxygen, acid rain will form.Third, it causes pollution of soil and water sources. Hazardous substances from coal waste that remain in the soil degrade soil quality. In addition, coal-fired powe
"I hope you are always well, Mr Rock," Ethelyne gave a warm smile and ignored Raymond.At this moment, Ethelyne knew about Marvin Rock going to build a big business. And to be sure, Ethelyne was well aware that Marvin was a potential new tycoon.Ethelyne was not the type of woman to harbour hurt feelings. She had already forgotten her disappointment the other day. When it comes to money, she will be professional and competent.When dealing with Marvin Rock, she would not give off an unfriendly impression, let alone utter words and gestures that would offend Marvin.In contrast to Raymond who treats Marvin badly, Ethelyne always maintains her appearance and demeanour. For her, Marvin must get special treatment.Still shocked, Raymond gawked at her. He repeatedly watched Marvin and Ethelyne. He thought, 'What kind of magic is Marvin playing?'"Miss Wilmer, the Wilmer Family's Oxy Electra has the same fate as our family's One Tesla," Raymond said with a grin. "What steps are you going to
"You're so beautiful in that white dress, darling," Marvin Rock said as he handed over a small white expensive bag as well.Gennifer Winston looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled embarrassedly and said, "Even though it's the thousandth time you've said that, I still don't get tired of hearing it."When Gennifer turned her body around, Marvin immediately embraced her tightly. Their hands were clasped together, and even though he couldn't dance, Marvin swayed as much as he could. Before long, he was kissing his wife passionately on the lips.Marvin was dapper in a black shirt and black trousers. Seeing Marvin's good looks, Gennifer gets more and more excited, but Marvin quickly ends this madness before something so time-consuming happens."We have to go now, honey. We can't be late for tonight's reunion which ... is quite lively," said Marvin while wiping his lips which had turned red from being smacked by Gennifer's soft lips.Seeing her husband like a clown, Gennifer chuckled am
At the Rock family home, it was a quiet night.Marvin took another sip of his coffee, then said to Varez, "You're still the most accomplished man at that time. You're number one, man!"Varez looked away and watched the trees from this balcony. "Grades are useless if you don't have skills, experience, and money. I'm just a petrol station worker, and I'm stuck at the head of the shift. I'm not reliable."Varez even went so far as to regret his studies. He thought it was useless to go to school for years and end up as a petrol station worker. What he had learnt so far was a waste.There were many reasons why Varez was not as successful as his classmates, apart from the fact that he had no money and no insiders. Despite being highly intelligent, Varez didn't have great verbal skills. He knows theories and formulas by heart, but when it comes to dealing with big people, he's clumsy and nervous.If asked to speak in public, he would be shy and trembling. Varez tends to work in jobs that don
Flashback on. Once upon a time at Gloriston University. When most of them were eighteen years old.Around the campus park, Varez was picking up the pieces of his broken glasses."You're a geeky guy! You should be at home shooting with your dad," said one of the dark-haired men."We both can't get over the fact that you won't give us money. And what's worse, when we ask you to write down our homework, you violently refuse," chimed in the other blonde."If you had obeyed, we wouldn't have bullied you, you idiot!" the dark-haired man who had picked up Varez's glasses and thrown them, now stomped on them again, shattering them even more.Varez was pushed hard enough that he fell backwards. Thud! His body hit the garden fence. "Aghr!" Varez winced in pain. He didn't dare to retaliate, because if he put up a fight, he would be finished like yesterday.The two bullies had been beating his body all semester. The reason was because Varez was quiet and seemed stiff. Even though Varez sometimes
"You're just a disgraceful ex-con!" Raymond screamed in anger.Harven Rockwell could not contain his emotions. He approached Raymond and grabbed him by the neck. "You've been talking out of your arse. You disrespected the host and the other guests."Before anything untoward happened, the people in the neighbourhood broke it up. Harven was furious. He had been patient. Especially when he recalled that Raymond was the culprit for the slander against his brother.Harven grinned angrily. "You're the accuser! Because of you, my brother is in jail!" Harven struggled from the hugs and embraces of the people.The audience's emotions rose again. A show that shakes emotions, fluctuates.But not for the two extended families. Derick and his in-laws were concerned about the chaos.Russel was also on edge from earlier as he watched Mr Warren pretentiously blabbing away to his heart's content.Only able to surrender, Freya is speechless.Marvin regained control of the stage. "To Mr Warren Harvard a
Raymond turned round and squinted, then howled loudly, "My father is right! How can the Rock Family, especially the ones living in Gloriston, own Rockxill with a value of hundreds of billions of dollars. If they've been in debt to us all this time, then how can they own Rockxill? It's impossible!"Now all attention was on the father and son.Mr Warren Harvard was quite distinctive today because of his lively appearance. On all his fingers were a dozen rings, ranging from silver to gold to diamonds. In the middle of the skull motif on the middle finger, there is an expensive stone of hundreds of thousands of dollars that is as colourful as a rainbow.Mr Warren Harvard deliberately crossed his arms over his chest and showed off everything. All the jewellery on his fingers could buy a luxury villa plus everything inside. Mr Warren Harvard proudly stood up and puffed out his chest."Which bank would lend the Rock Family hundreds of billions of dollars?" Mr Warren asked and snorted in disg
Zavier, who had just wanted to sit in a chair at the back, stood up. He was asked to come forward and sit next to Marvin Rock. At this moment, Zavier was very awkward when sitting right next to his boss.As instructed by Marvin, Zavier was not to make much noise during the programme. Zavier must not tell anyone about the owner of Rockxill.That was the reason why Marvin forbade inviting the Wilmer Family here. The people who knew that the owner of Rockxill was Marvin were obviously the Wilmers, like Ethelyne.Russell brought his face closer to the mic again. "He is Mr Zavier! The President Director of Rockxill! He is far more meritorious and deserving of respect than the Harvard Family. Applause for him!"Excitement erupted around the garden.Those who shared the Harvard Family's views were delighted to hear Russel's outburst, especially those who hated the Harvard Family's arrogance.There were whispers among them."We better follow the Winston Family's lead, break away from the Harv
Raymond pointed at him. "Stop talking!" he howled angrily.Russel Winston straightened his shoulders and retorted, "I'm talking facts. Not slander.""You!" Raymond growled angrily."Ladies and gentlemen, you should also know that my brother-in-law, Marvin Rock, is not a terrorist. He was slandered into going to jail. I was one of the people instigated, and the instigator was Raymond Harvard!"Everyone was even more dumbfounded.Whispers among them filled the entire garden.Russel said this because he finally realised that Marvin Rock was innocent. He admitted that he had been wrong all along. In fact, Russel did not know who Marvin Rock really was.What would happen if Russel knew who Marvin really was?Mr Warren Harvard told his son to sit down immediately. Although Mr Warren was currently emotional, he couldn't let his anger out because after all, he was a guest here. Unlike Raymond who couldn't control his emotions, Mr Warren was still calm.Mr Warren thought that it was impossible
All the invited guests stood up, looked back, and searched for the two people in question. All eyes were on the two people.Then Warren Harvard and Raymond were led by two guards dressed all in black to the frontmost special seats. They would sit next to the dignitaries and other important people.From among business people, only the two of them are in the front row. Apart from being special, there will certainly be surprises for the richest family in Chemisland.Before taking their seats, the two of them clapped their hands and twisted their bodies as they leered in all directions, exuding a Harvard charm worthy of anyone's flattery.It wasn't long before two people were carrying metre-long flower arrangements, and two others were carrying sizable gifts. All gifts from the Harvard Family to the bride and groom."We would like to thank Mr Warren Harvard and his son," said Derick with a smile on his lips.Only the gifts from the Harvard Family were deliberately placed on the stage, not
The big day arrived.Russel and Freya became king and queen this Sunday in Gloriston. They both sat on the throne with all the beautiful floral decorations. Russel looked dashing in a black suit and Freya looked elegant in a white dress with a crown on her head.Fortunately, the early winter weather from morning to noon was quite mild. All the guests enjoyed the impressive garden party. The guests were treated to a variety of Chemisland specialities.The most special drink was GN-Wine. The price per bottle is two thousand dollars. Although it is quite cheap for a festive party, the quantity is limited. And specifically at this event, the producer has provided a stock of one hundred bottles.Accompanied by romantic music, the guests enjoyed chatting with each other with a beautiful view of the surrounding garden, while enjoying the food and drinks offered by twenty waiters on each side.Derick Winston stood on the stage and said to all the guests both seated and standing, "Thank you to
All the way from Villa Winston to the Rock Family residence, Gennifer kept grumbling to herself. "It must be Marvin who made her his secretary," she muttered with an annoyed look on her face.Later that evening, Gennifer dragged her husband to his room, leaving Marvin's parents in the dining room.In the room, Gennifer vigorously spewed out the anger that was clotting and choking her chest. "I don't want to know, he has to get out of Rockxill immediately, or I'll reveal all these secrets to my family and I'll report to them that you've been having an affair!" She sat slumped on the bed with a face full of emotion. Her beautiful eyes were swallowed by an explosive rage.Marvin walked around the room and remained calm. He had expected Freya's mouth to open wide, until her cooing reached his wife's ears. "I'll explain it to you, dear.""I don't need an explanation, Marvin! I'd rather let you get close to Ethelyne than that woman. She's secretly seductive. The proof is that you fell for h
