Xiever and Viola's eyeballs felt like they were going to jump out. Both of their mouths were gaping like fish deprived of oxygen.

It was different with Gennifer. More and more, there was something wrong with her husband. After this event was over, she had to have a serious talk, she had to.

Gennifer couldn't stop glancing at her husband's movements. It seemed like tonight was the culmination of all the weirdness she had experienced after her husband got out of prison.

Meanwhile, Jesslyn was nervous beyond belief. She was still asking herself, was the phone call just now really true? Not a hoax and a trick?

However, Jesslyn couldn't hide her happiness. Although it was only the interview stage, at least the news had been a breath of fresh air for her for years.

"Prepare yourself well, Jesslyn. The owner of Rockxill doesn't like arrogant people. Therefore, when you meet Mr Zavier, you should try to be humble and not make unnecessary appearances," Marvin said with a warm smile.

    "Hello Mr Marvin Rock, how are you?" greeted Ethelyne, standing right next to Marvin. She didn't care that Gennifer was nearby.Although the gossip between the two of them wasn't warm anymore, everyone couldn't possibly forget. And when Ethelyne Wilmer approached Marvin tonight, everyone was taken aback.Calvin's voice was ignored by all the reunion participants as their eyes were fixed on the owner of the red dress. Admiration, lust, wonder, all mixed together.Marvin didn't look Ethelyne in the eye, but answered her greeting simply. "Okay."Ethelyne pushed Jesslyn. "You move to the seat next to him, I'll be right next to Mr Rock."As usual, Jessyln didn't make much noise. She moved and complied with Miss Conglomerate's wishes. By this time, Jessyln was very self-conscious. She mostly kept her head down and was busy playing with her mobile phone.What is there to be proud of in Jessyln? Family? Possessions? Profession? Except for a few achievements. All of which are obviously pointle

    Calvin sat right next to Xiever. Because he felt like an important and respected person, he deserved to sit at the same table with Miss Wilmer. He was trying to get attention."The red dress you're wearing is really beautiful, Miss Wilmer. I think you are the most beautiful and charming person today," he praised.Ethelyne was not the least bit impressed by the cheap compliment. Although the position of manager in this hotel was something Calvin was proud of, it meant nothing to Ethelyne.At this reunion event, her main goal was to win the heart of Marvin Rock, both for romantic and business purposes.However, it seems that Ethelyne's plan did not go well and the results did not match her expectations.What a disappointment.His praise unappreciated, Calvin turned his attention to Marvin. "Hey Rocky, did you ever enjoy the food menu here when you were in prison?"Marvin didn't need any defence from anyone. He answered for himself. "Never. Good food like this doesn't exist in prison."I

    While in the car, Gennifer kept urging her husband to explain everything without keeping anything secret. This time Gennifer did not play around. She could not hold back the curiosity that exploded in her heart."Marvin, speak up!"Marvin's fingers gripped the steering wheel harder and harder. Between focusing on driving and finding the right way, how to explain everything properly to his wife. If he said the wrong thing, it could all go wrong. Marvin remained unmoved.When they reached home and were about to rest, Marvin brought his body closer to Gennifer on the bed. He wrapped his arms around Gennifer's body. After gathering the right words in his head, he spoke as he was."Under my family's land are billions of tonnes of Glorisium rock. If it was all cashed out, it would amount to trillions of dollars, which is a lot."Gennifer immediately leaned back in astonishment. "Not many people know about it?"Marvin nodded. "Yes, not many people know. If Glorisium is turned into MR-25, its

    A sunny Sunday morning.Marvin kept running while keeping an eye on the trees and flowers surrounding the Rock Gloriston Family's residence. Because he had been jogging for more than thirty minutes, his breathing was a bit labored even though his body was still fit.While Gennifer was at the back, limping along while regulating her heavy breathing. "Honey, take a break!" she screeched, standing by the roadside as she rested her palms on her hips. Her hair fell down.Marvin stopped and turned her around, "We've had a long break from sports. Do you want your body to expand like a teddy bear?"Gennifer grinned beautifully. "If I'm fat and even obese, would you still want me?""I'll never turn away." Marvin went back to running. One of Marvin's favourite sports was jogging, because it was the simplest, just run. Other than that, there are many others, such as workout, gym, football, basketball, karate, boxing. But because he is too busy in the library and laboratory, he sometimes forgets

    Marvin, who was still standing, rubbed his chin and said, "Freya, you'll slip in a letter of recommendation from Winsoil's General Manager, the Honourable Mr Russel Winston. We're sure the letter will be taken into consideration."The more he was praised, the bigger Russel's skull became. "Now that's a good idea, ex-convict. I thought your brain was a hundred per cent gone, but it's still useful. Alright, I'll make the letter. There's no way Mr Zavier won't take it into account.""I will. Your name is too big, Brother-in-law!" raised Marvin again.Gennifer couldn't stand it. She waltzed away to who knows where, but he definitely wanted to release the laughter that had exploded in his stomach.Freya who didn't know Zavier's figure could only nod. "I hope I can get hired tomorrow. I can't wait."The thing that was in Russell's mind was that if Freya was really accepted later, especially as a manager, it would certainly make it easier to lobby from Winsoil to Rockxill in the future.So f

    Marvin, my brother-in-law. Please have some more tea. I still need more ideas from you. Especially about the concept of my wedding," said Russel while pretending to think."How's your friend Raymond? He should be at your wedding, brother-in-law. Prove that you don't need an arrogant rich guy like him!" Marvin said seriously, but his heart wanted to laugh.Little by little, the door to Russel's heart began to open and accept the light of truth. The heart that was dirty and black slowly began to turn white and clean.In the process of thinking hard and deeply, Russel finally began to realise his ridiculousness. He felt foolish to want to be under the Harvard Family's armpit, even to the point of sacrificing his own younger sibling.And the more time passed, the more he realised that his brother-in-law's words were indeed true. Raymond was an antagonist who only used him.If Raymond was so kind, why would Winsoil beg for him? It was as simple as that. Fortunately, at this time Russel was

    Jesslyn approached Marvin and greeted, "How are you? What are you doing here, Marvin?"Receiving such a surprising greeting, Marvin was not fazed. He smiled and replied, "I'm doing well. I just wanted to meet someone in Rockxill. You, I'm guessing, will be the new secretary today at Rockxill, Jesslyn."Jesslyn straightened her white shirt and black blazer. "Do I look good in a short skirt or trousers like this?" she asked with a twinkle in her eye.Marvin also scanned Jesslyn's white body, at first glance her body was similar to his wife's body shape, the hair was equally black. However, Jesslyn had a face shape that tended to be rather round and cute, while Gennifer was more gaunt and firm."In my opinion, you should wear trousers like this. He said that the owner of this company prefers women whose clothes tend to be covered, rather than clothes that are too revealing. And one more thing, he doesn't like women who dress up and groom themselves. Dress up and look the part. Don't be l

    Freya stared in surprise, her eyebrows twitching. "Jesslyn, what are you doing here? Don't tell me you want to apply for a job at Rockxill!"Freya knew enough about Jessyln from the stories told by Gennifer.When she saw the presence of the woman who was always rejected in Rockxill, Freya was naturally provoked to make fun of her. "Let me guess, you want to apply as a gardener, or maybe a janitor. You know that the income is bigger than at the shop where you work now, right?"Marvin stood up and looked at Freya, then said, "Sis Freya, we didn't expect to meet here. Prepare yourself as best you can. Mr Zavier will be calling you soon." She tried to divert the issue. If Freya was allowed to continue babbling, Jesslyn could get down.For a long time, Freya stares at Marvin and Jesslyn in turn. She knew of their unsanctioned closeness. "I don't know what your interests are here, Marvin. But one thing's for sure, I hope you get away from that weak woman immediately. If I report it to your

    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
