"Where are you right now? Why didn't I see you at the boss's house?" Dean asked over the phone.Zayn stared at the Griscouvs' mansion, he was still sitting in the car when Amanda and Oriaga were at the Griscouvs' house. "I'll give you 100$ if you can guess, Dean.""You're trying to make fun of me, huh? You must be in Gregorious' office."Zayn smiled wryly. "Of course not, I can even send you the location right now if you have any doubts.""Then where is it, huh? Give me that 100$.""I'm in front of Miss Amanda's parents' house.""Bastard! Is that true? Don't hallucinate, Zayn. You must be alone because I'm not sure the boss will—""The boss is with me." Zayn grinned even more, happy to discuss all the absurdities about Oriaga with Dean. "You still don't believe me?""Wait a minute. Is Miss Amanda there too?""Of course, they had their first visit after getting married three months ago. Isn't it very romantic? Give me your 100$, Dean.""Hey! I didn't ask you to bet, brat.""But, you're
"I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my parents, especially my father. I'm sorry if any of his words may have offended or even hurt you, believe me, he didn't know anything." Amanda had a wide range of feelings to say this, which she had dared to express to her husband since returning from the Griscouv family home.The four wheels of the car were still moving, but they would soon arrive at the mansion, since entering the car—there was no conversation whatsoever, Oriaga and Amanda were thinking about the burden in their heads. Meanwhile, Zayn was busy guessing the next plot.Before visiting Amanda's parents' house, they were still able to taunt and warn each other, but after leaving that place, their moods became quite chaotic, especially Oriaga. He just didn't show it to anyone.Amanda felt very reluctant to face Oriaga, she couldn't forbid Mateo to stop saying anything, didn't almost all fathers want the best happiness if their daughter married a man and took her away from
"I'm so glad to know that Mr. Oriaga took his wife to visit your parents' house, Miss," Aunt Rosemary said as she served breakfast this morning, she hadn't had a chance to ask Amanda yesterday because Oriaga's wife hadn't come downstairs since returning from her parents' house."Yes. I'm confused too, what got into her to be so generous, I thought he would never do that."Aunt Rosemary smiled, she dared to say it directly to Amanda because they had become very close since Oriaga's wife invited her to exchange ideas. Something no other servant could have done."But, I can't feel relieved after all this, Auntie. I don't know why, my mind is pressing like that.""Mr. Oriaga does change easily, then revert to his original character.""Maybe it's because he met Nadine, my sister, that his way of thinking has become different. Whatever it is is a little better, I even forgot to thank him.""You can do that when Mr. Oriaga comes back to visit the mansion."Amanda nodded. "Thank you for the f
The man got out of the car with a big smile, he was carrying a shopping bag that he wanted to share with Amanda, then Jeff walked down the yard, but an irregularity was seen when Jeff found that Amanda's porch light was on, while it was already noon, the light should have been extinguished.Not only that, but the dust had accumulated there, and when Jeff picked up his shoes, his footprints were imprinted on the floor, leaving the owner even more confused. He wasn't too surprised that the window blinds or doors were closed tightly during the day, depending on the homeowner's convenience.Jeff knocked on the door, calling Amanda and Pamela's names, but there was no answer, so he turned to Amanda's bedroom window, knocking again.Someone cleared their throat.Jeff turned around to find a middle-aged man standing on the sidewalk, watching the stranger."Ah. I can ask you a question." He smiled awkwardly as he approached the old man. "Sorry, Uncle. My name is Jeff, I'd like to—""Are you l
"GUEST!!!" Joana looked panicked after returning from the restroom, while they enjoyed lunch at a restaurant in the center of Moscow after submitting evidence of Elia Pinot's crimes to the police station in the city.Oriaga not only dragged Elia, but also the media that had spread bad news about him, although the news had been deleted long ago, he still kept a lot of evidence to support his report.Oriaga frowned at Joana's panicked voice. "What happened to make your face look like that, huh?"Joana tried to regulate her breathing, and she sat down opposite Oriaga, they had met a lawyer in this place, but the man left early because he had to take care of another case."Alright, calm yourself down." Oriaga held out a glass of water for Joana to take a sip."Thank you very much, sir."The man waited patiently for Joana to calm down and be able to explain something."So, what's wrong? Why the panic after returning from the restroom? Did you lose something?""No, sir. That's not it." Her
As predicted, the situation at Gregorious had become quite chaotic, especially when their CEO was not in the office, making some people assume wildly and corner Kathryn, fortunately, the woman immediately secured herself after a friend told her about a video from a local brand's website that used her design.Although the man's body was certainly tired, he didn't feel comfortable resting now, Oriaga refused Joana's request for his boss to return home for two or three hours, and the man insisted that he had to meet Kathryn to solve the problem.There had never been any leakage or theft of designs on Gregorious, so the case that occurred was enough to convince Oriaga that anyone must be against him, making the man very upset because he felt played."Where is Kathryn? Can I see that woman now, huh?" The muscles on his face were clearly defined, Oriaga's thick eyebrows almost drew together, and he couldn't look at others with friendliness, he was like a male lion observing an enemy from a
"Bastard! Someone became a traitor in my place, huh!" Oriaga was furious after checking all the CCTV footage and realizing that someone had deleted the activity footage from the CCTV that was taken for three days on a certain date and month, enough to prove that anyone was acting with caution.Kathryn's workspace was attached to another designer's cubicle, as they were working as a team, so the work area was very open and anyone could see it without having to look at the CCTV footage, but if the theft did happen must have taken place during a quiet time.However, there was no footage showing anyone else except team members around Kathryn's cubicle. Fortunately, they noticed the irregularities on certain dates that didn't show any CCTV footage, while everyone was confident that it was functioning properly.Kathryn also didn't know the exact day the theft took place, leaving everyone even more confused."Are you lying to me, huh!" Burning with emotion, Oriaga lost control, grabbing Kath
"How is it, Joana? Did they give you an answer yet?" Two questions quickly escaped Oriaga's lips when Joana visited the hospital after office hours, the man had woken up from his sleep about fifteen minutes ago, and he asked Dean to pick Joana up and bring her to the hospital.The woman hadn't even opened her mouth to greet Oriaga, but she had to understand that her boss kept thinking about office matters while lying weak like this.Joana smiled faintly, she tried to hide her anxiety, but she realized that even if she admitted it—Oriaga probably wouldn't care, or invite her to discuss other matters.Joana shook her head. "Not yet, sir."Oriaga chuckled. "It's crazy, are they deliberately ignoring me, huh? This is the most subtle way we can talk about it without resorting to demands, or even magnifying the issue at hand.""Sir." Joana snorted, she was saddened to see the condition of her boss—who was still very fit this morning, then suddenly lay helpless on the same day, making Joana
