“I don’t know if the Skyspring Wolfendens will still target me, but you can fight, so stay here with me. The second room on the right upstairs is yours.”This place was not too far from Noella’s place, and Kayson found the arrangement alright, so he did not say much.Sadie took her suitcase and told him, “I’ll wash up and take you out to shop for clothes.”‘Take me?’ Kayson looked bewildered, but Sadie did not say more. She went upstairs to take a shower, leaving Kayson to wait downstairs.A little over ten minutes later, the doorbell rang.Kayson opened the door to see that it was Chelsea, Sadie’s secretary, when she was in Clouspring. The latter froze when she saw Kayson, her jaw dropping to form an “O” with her mouth, and looked utterly surprised.Kayson knew that sh*t had hit the ceiling upon taking in the situation.Both of them stared at each other—Kayson stayed silent while Chelsea was stupefied.It was still Kayson who broke the silence afterward. “Ms. Hayes, come in an
Guests bustled in the hall of the dinner event.Wolfenden Corp. was not exactly famous. Its fame was only prominent locally. Of course, it took Skyriv by surprise previously when it rose up the rank by acquiring the Gillete Group. In addition to Apex Investment Partners’ support, Wolfenden Corp. had actually made itself known to many Skyriv businesses and entrepreneurs within a short period.Even then, Wolfenden Corp. did not enter the market of Skyspring formally. Dickinson International was going to be an opportunity.Wolfenden Corp. was not famous enough, but Sadie was gorgeous. She was at least one of the top three among all the women present tonight.Those who were able to attend this event were businessmen worth over billions of dollars, bringing along their rich, graceful wives, beautiful girlfriends, or youthful mistresses. No matter how striking their partners were, though, they could never compare to Sadie with her light makeup.Once she entered, she attracted a lot of a
“You’re still as annoying,” Sadie commented with a straight face and planned to ignore her and take Kayson elsewhere.Yolanda mocked her upon seeing she was leaving, “Feeling insecure, Sadie? Answer me if you have the guts!“You wouldn’t dare, would you? I think you snuck yourself in! The general manager of Wolfenden Corp. snuck into the high society’s event without an invitation…“Say, if this were to be the headline tomorrow, wouldn’t it be interesting?“Our old friends would laugh their ass off if they learned you did something so embarrassing. Gosh, I cringe just thinking about it!”Sadie turned around with an icy gaze. “Are you trying to accuse me?”“So what if I am?” Yolanda retorted proudly. “My boyfriend’s company runs social media accounts and manages many influencers!“As long as I make a request, the accounts will publish what I want them to by tomorrow. Just a word from me, and I’ll ruin you.”Sadie kept a straight face, but it was undeniable that she was beginning
Juneau was startled, not understanding what Kayson meant. While Yolanda was also confused, she knew that it was not something good. She pointed at Kayson and huffed. “You’re just an employee under Sadie. This isn’t your place to speak!“There are so many high-profile individuals here, yet someone like you managed to sneak in. Infuriating!“Sadie Wolfenden, don’t drag us down just because you don’t mind lowering your status!”Juneau scowled as well. “Any Tom, Dick, and Harry think they can just waltz in! And to boast at me. You say I’m going to be doomed. I’d like to know how that’s going to work.”“Me too.”It was then a tall young man, about 1.8 meters in height, walked over with a sexy woman. He wore a scoff as he glanced at Sadie before taunting, “Sadie Wolfenden, it’s been a while. Didn’t expect you to be so shameless.“Do you know who’s hosting this dinner tonight? The richest man in Skyriv, Royce Shore!“If he learns of what happened tonight, I’m certain Wolfenden Corp. wi
Yolanda wanted to say more but suddenly felt a suffocating sense of pressure coming at her and making her teeth clatter.Juneau was shocked by Kayson’s gaze as well and cried, “Security! Where’s the security? There are two trespassers here!“What are you guys doing? Waiting for Mr. Shore to question and punish you?!”The security guards hurried over, looking panicky, while the security guard chief wore an aggressive scowl.“You! Leave right now! Don’t blame me for being harsh otherwise!”Sadie quickly answered, “We’ll leave now—”Kayson, on the other hand, looked at the security chief calmly. “You’ll probably end up worse if we leave.”The security chief was enraged. He would be doomed if the other bigshots were upset! His gaze turned sharp as he ordered, “Chase them out!”The moment his order left his mouth, the other security guards wanted to shove Kayson and Sadie out with their batons.Sadie quickly got up to yank Kayson’s arm and said shakily, “Don’t do anything. We’ll le
Juneau was in disbelief. “You! Are you crazy!?”Judging by Kayson’s tone, he didn’t even care about the Osborns!Kayson could not be bothered as he asked aloud, “Where are the Osborns? Get your asses here!”Juneau’s legs nearly gave out on him. ‘Goodness, the man has really lost his mind!’Sadie felt like her head was going to explode, feeling a loud buzz as she looked at Kayson. She only had one thought in her mind. ‘Wolfenden Corp.’s plan to enter the Skyspring market is foiled!’In a room upstairs of the dinner event venue…A fat middle-aged man pushed the door open and entered anxiously to go to another middle-aged man who was talking to someone. He took a deep breath and announced with a wince, “Mr. Osborn, something happened!”Mr. Osborn frowned and asked, “What is it?”“There’s a fight at the outdoor area, and someone’s yelling to have the Osborns get their asses over there. He’s absolutely brazen!”Mr. Osborn glowered while the middle-aged man seated across him arched
Kayson said, “Apologize to Ms. Wolfenden.”Without saying anything, Paxton walked up to Sadie and made a bow at her. “I apologize for my misbehavior, Ms. Wolfenden. I hope you can forgive me.”Sadie forced herself to calm down and said,”It… It’s okay…”However, Kayson was not going to let them go so easily. He remembered very clearly that Yolanda had said she could easily destroy Sadie’s reputation with just a few words.“Paxton, is he your friend?”Paxton’s face was stern as he said, “I know his father.”“I see!” Kayson nodded and said, “He has a lot of social media resources?”“Yeah. He works in the social media industry… so he has a lot of resources regarding social media.”Kayson nodded. “I want his company.”Juneau’s face turned pale as he shouted, “No way!”Paxton slapped him across the face again. “Shut up!”“Uncle Paxton…” Juneau looked at Paxton in disbelief.Paxton’s face was dark as he said, “Okay. I’ll have the share transfer agreement of his company delivered t
It was not hard to imagine what would happen to Yolanda. Kayson was certain that Juneau wouldn’t let her off the hook so easily.Sadie still couldn’t quite come around to her senses yet. She had assumed this was the end for her, and she would have to stay in Clouspring for the rest of her life.She did not expect things to turn out this way at all!Just when she was going to ask Kayson, a panicked man rushed toward them. He was the captain of the security guards.The captain dropped to his knees despite everyone watching him. “Sir, I’ve made a mistake! Please, don’t tell Ms. Shore about it…”Kayson thought for a while and said, “Fine. I’ll forgive you this time.”The captain couldn’t be happier when he heard what Kayson said. After all, it was everyone’s dream to work for the richest man in Skyriv, and he did not want to lose his job.“Thank you very much, Sir! Thank you!” The captain thanked Kayson and went away, feeling grateful that he could keep his job.Sadie took a deep
