Everyone else soon arrived. Rex glared at Dona, and the latter shivered as she kept whistling at handsome men and gorgeous ladies in the hall. Winnifred was an enigma, Sahara kept glaring hard at Lynn and Bruce, and Hilda's head was lowered with her eyes glued to her phone. From time to time, she would chat with Sonnia. None of them were getting along with each other. Teresa arrived on the dot. As she stood in the center of the platform, the competing vendors and reporters all turned their gazes to her. Teresa didn't waste any time as she gave a brief explanation about the Jordan phone budget and the high end ranges' launch in Taadi, explaining her requests for the vendors at the same time. At last, it was time for the most important part. "Jordan phone is one of the oldest and most successful cell phone brands in the world. Ever since I took over, our market share has been on the rise. This will be our first time selling our phones in the Taadi market, and we've received many love
B mobile was indeed the leading company in the global mid to low end phone markets, it was also the most popular imported phone in Taadi. Now that Winnifred was working with B mobile, this combination would definitely be the largest competitor that Hilda, as the new agent of Jordan phone, would have to go against. Hilda's team was now the only licensed agent of Jordan low end phones in the whole of Taadi, after all. Soon, Plum Technology met up with Teresa to sign the official documents. After this was done, Hilda immediately launched her agency's business. She started her own project team and formed a number of work departments, she ended up taking a few floors in the entire office building. The job as Jordan phone's agent became one of the core focuses of Plum Technology, and Hilda began to recruit new members for her company. They would often have meetings that went on until midnight, and the team quickly bonded with one another. As the sole agent in Taadi, their first step woul
As expected, Solomon had already accepted the offer to be the spokesperson of B mobile, and he was just waiting for his contract with Jordan phone to be ended. He proceeded to become the spokesperson for B mobile right after he posted all the negative reviews about Jordan phones' quality. What a typical example of someone who uses others to his own benefit, Hilda thought. I'd never fancied Solomon as an individual, and I'd always wanted to cut him off and get a new spokesperson. That was the perfect chance for us to do it. Both the B mobile and Jordan phones were placed together for side by side comparisons once again. B mobile was known to be the best on the market, and Jordan phone was a brand new competitor. However, Jordan phone was utterly defeated by B mobile before it could even be sold on the market, all the ghostwriters flooded the comment and review sections with their negative criticisms. Both B mobile and its spokesperson took the opportunity to advance themselves by s
Lily preferred to live at Hilda's, her house was spacious, had clean air, and there were more people around. Hilda's house had practically turned into a mini version of a family Residence. A number of individuals who depended on Connie had moved in, including Bruce, Lynn, Johnathan, Francis, and a few others. Connie, as the leader of this branch of Family, was therefore excited to hear about Lily's pregnancy. Now that Lily was in her forties, it was hard for her to get pregnant. Both Johnathan and Nathan acted as if they were preparing for a war as they hurriedly increased the number of helpers that surrounded Lily. However, Lily was still as energetic as a child, she ran all over the place with the level of excitement that was equivalent to three huskies'. Connie couldn't help but recall the past whenever she glanced at Lily. Although both Hilda and Lily had lost their memories after the ZF Organization used their brainwashing techniques on them, Lily was still as innocent as a y
A bout of spring rain soaked the entire Taadi City, and a cold moon appeared soon after that. It fitted well with the damp air in the city. Teresa got out of the car at the back door of the Aebasa Residence before walking toward her own living quarters. There was a short walk she had to take to get to her own room, and she passed through a little garden on the way in. Hilda was the one who had filled it with various plants and flowers, the stems of some plants now curled up around the supporting pillars. Under the guidance of a professional florist, they shaped the growth of the plants so that it formed an archway. There were colorful lights that lit the garden up, which made it seem especially dreamy. Recently, Samuel had been traveling between the Mountain and down town, but he mostly resided in Aebasa Residence. Right then, he was walking in front of Teresa, he was going against the direction of the strong wind as the breeze struck his robe, filling the air with the scent of tea
Apart from these contracts, there were also several slave contracts that highlighted the unequal treatment of various artists. One artist was required to spend a specified number of nights drinking and sleeping with others. The contract even specified, in black and white, the number of days that a female artist would get to take a leave during that time of the month! There was even a list of prices for how much each artist received after sleeping with others, all of it was listed on paper! There were clauses that mentioned an increase in rates if the artists performed well in bed with others! It was shocking, horrifying, and appalling! This wasn't an entertainment company, it was practically a prostitution center! Soon enough, the tax department received a large number of reports, and they eventually launched an investigation on the issue of tax evasion suspected in both Damien International and Damien Entertainment. The public security department also received reports and finally
Now that Teresa had had everything handed over and arranged, she was ready to leave Taadi. Giry reluctantly carried his little backpack on his back while running out to pat the alpaca, the cat, and the dog. After saying goodbye to Luna and Desmond, he sat on the porch, as if waiting for someone. However, it had been quite a few days since the last time that person showed up. Giry had been looking forward to calling the person 'Daddy', but he never came again. Luna comforted him like an adult, saying, "Don't wait anymore. Mr. Psychic has gone back to his hometown. He'll be back when you spend your holiday here next time." In the end, Giry didn't get to see Samuel. After leaving the Aebasa Residence, he and Teresa took a car to the airport to leave the country on a private plane. In the car, Teresa worked using her laptop, whereas Giry pouted his lips without saying a word while playing with the sandalwood bracelet he had brought with him. Once arriving at the airport, Teresa got
There was a public outcry when Sahara spread the news. Gosh, how could there be such a thing? B mobile actually bribed the spokesperson for Jordan phones in secret and threatened him to openly sling mud at Jordan phones! Everything he said about his phone being broken and his important personal information being leaked after hacking were all outright lies! Unexpectedly, their competitors took this opportunity to add insult to injury by releasing a mixture of genuine and false 'leaked data', making a big deal out of this and even drawing the attention of the police and the Taxation Bureau! It was unknown whether these pieces of evidence were released by Sahara's team to save their own skin, nor was it known if these pieces of evidence were obtained by Hilda's team, who didn't know whether Solomon threw mud at Jordan phones of his own free will or at Winnifred's coercion. Still, Jordan phones' reputation had been saved. Sahara really clutched at straws right now to whitewash what sh
Three months later, the five generations of the huge family were gathered happily together in Nathan's Villa of the Imperial. Old Master Clemon, who was still alive and kicking, held in his arms junior Klaus with a broad smile on his face, while Zis was also all smiles as he held the other junior Klaus. Nathan was staring at Klaus hostilely. "Mr. Klaus, pardon me, but I'll make sure to cut you up into pieces if you get any closer to my daughter!" He held a chilly gaze while asserting his presence. All of a sudden, there was a fierceness about him. However, Klaus only gave him a smirk. "Haha, I don't think you have any say in this, Mr. Clemon." On the contrary, Connie seemed to side with Klaus, as she began chiding Nathan. "You should keep your mouth shut! The kids know what they're doing!" Although Nathan seemed to have backed down, he was still glaring at Klaus. Without warning, Zis, who was the eldest of the in laws, put on a stern look on his face while lecturing Connie, "M
Just like that? Why does she sound so nonchalant about it? My daughter was only six years old when she slept with a twenty year old guy! As her mother, shouldn't she have stopped her? "Times have changed. Besides, the kids are all grown up now, so isn't it normal to have desires? Don't you worry, as I gave her detailed guidance beforehand, as well as showed her educational videos to teach her more about sex." Hilda explained. Nathan's face blanched, wanting to just faint once more. However, Hilda went on. "Linux even developed a condom that helps relieve the pain, as well as increase the pleasure one experiences during sexual intercourse. It will also alert the users if it detects a virus. Besides, Klaus did a checkup beforehand to ensure that he was clean." "I also told him to be careful so as to not hurt Luna before I agreed to let them have sex." There was a livid expression on Nathan's already pale face. Has the world undergone so much transformation during the past ten year
Justin stood in a corner in abjection before suddenly laughing in a self deprecating manner. He turned around to look for Anne, only to find her still actively trying to approach Luna in an attempt to strike up a conversation with her. Never in her wildest dreams had she expected the girl to be Luna Clemon, the daughter of a security guard whom she despised. After Klaus entered the venue, he didn't even spare a glance at the other ladies present for the occasion, save for Luna, the girl who was the center of attention. As the main protagonist who made her appearance after everybody else, the ball began after Luna showed up. She led the first dance with Giry, who moved in a coquettish manner throughout the entire dance due to how elated he was. After the first dance, some of the guests left the floor to get some rest, while others continued dancing after switching partners. Giry was forced to let go of Luna after that and wait for the next dance on the sidelines as he shouldn't be
There were a lot of prestigious people present for the occasion, including male guests who were members of royal families. Klaus Adams, whom Justin didn't manage to meet, would also be there, so he could seize the opportunity to connect to people of status. Luna won't be able to provide me with such an opportunity. He took a sip out of his wine to forget the feelings of bitterness within him while he admitted his defeat. I don't belong to Luna, nor is the opposite possible, as we belong to two different worlds. All of a sudden, there was a commotion in the hall as the hosts from Smith Group showed up. Jerome Bowen and Connie Frimpong were the ones to show up first, whereas Hilda Adams and Linux Jordan followed behind. They're here! The crowd moved in their direction with anticipation in their minds. The main protagonist will be here soon! The girl who has a net worth of hundreds of billions, as well as being the heir of prestigious families including the Damien Family, the Clemon
Anne also received an invitation to attend the ladies' ball, which was something that someone at the bottom of the social pyramid would never get to know and join in on, they practically lived in two different worlds. It wasn't until then that he knew how different they were. While Justin would never eat street food with Luna, her current boyfriend was willing to do so. Gritting his teeth, Justin left without a word, as if having made a decision. This time, he was finally able to leave her behind, even if they met each other again in the future, he would treat her like a stranger. There was a time when he used to want to spend his life with Luna, as he never met someone as intelligent and kind as her. Even if she was no better than other people, she was at least better than Anne in both regards. However, they could never get together. His family would never agree to the match due to the fact that Luna couldn't help his family climb the social ladder like how Anne could. It wasn't
A month later, the military training ended with Giry having bruises all over his face. On the other hand, both Luna and Klaus had a tan when they returned. They had also gotten to the stage of holding hands all the time with each other. As usual, Connie maintained her deathly glare when she met Klaus. She had arranged a group of people to join the military training, hoping that they could teach Klaus a lesson, but all of them wound up being intimidated by him. Geez! That bunch of cowards! Even Connie herself was beginning to acknowledge that she no longer stood a chance against Klaus by now, say less of anybody else. She was getting older, so it was time to hand things over to the next generation. Now, Klaus was the young, determined, and ambitious one, whereas Connie had aged, so she was no longer the former's opponent. Therefore, she could only watch as Klaus dated her granddaughter. After the military training, Luna's eighteenth birthday was approaching fast, which would mark
Jumping with joy, Luna latched herself to Yaa. "Marie! When did you arrive?" Yaa warmed up to Luna upon seeing the latter. "We'll be welcoming the freshers today. They seem to be a little disobedient! How dare a bunch of newbies be so arrogant?" The girls walked away while they chatted, but Yaa didn't speak with Klaus when they saw each other, as they both considered it sufficient as a greeting when they exchanged looks earlier. Therefore, Klaus pushed his bike while walking beside the girls as they spoke, all the while mentally exclaiming on how Yaa had bloomed into her true self by staying with the Cannons, that was where she truly belonged. Yaa was feared among the freshers. Furthermore, Justin Clark had his name called out directly by her earlier, so he almost burst into tears out of his intense fear for her. At that moment, Adwoa appeared out of nowhere to scare him. "Aha! You're done for! The general called for you! Justin, you should be prepared! The following month will b
The moment Connie's words were heard, Luna's reaction was the most intense. "Grandma, what do you mean by that? Why are you talking about him being worthy or otherwise? We're just friends!" Although we... we kissed the other time, neither of us ever brought that day up again. Therefore, they were still at the beautiful stage where things were fuzzy. Hence, Connie's proclamation burst the bubble, making the situation exceedingly awkward. Klaus, who was eating, stilled for a moment, but he said nothing. Upon seeing this, Connie was in seventh heaven. Finally, I've found his Achilles heel! Putting on her authoritative air as an elder, she loftily asserted, "My granddaughter will never marry a man who doesn't even have a high school diploma." All at once, the atmosphere turned awkward, and Luna's face flushed bright red from mortification. At this time, Hilda hurriedly smoothed things over, exclaiming, "What are you saying, mom? What's this about marrying and all?" She should at last l
The old son in law was indeed zealous, for he brought back gifts for everyone, including Jerome, Connie, and Luna's uncles. Despite Connie's staring match with Klaus earlier, she hugged her gift to her chest, reluctant to put it down for even a second. Klaus's gift to her was a handwritten score from her favorite pianist back when she was young, so she truly loved it. Meanwhile, Adwoa got a set of Western European non mainstream fashionable clothes, and she seemed besotted as well. Klaus even had gifts for Luna's friends, including Giry, Dean, and the others. He distributed the gifts one by one. At the end of it, he took out a tiny gift and waved a beckoning hand toward the back of the house. "Kater!" Woof! A husky scampered out in a mad flurry. Then, Klaus unwrapped the gift to reveal an adorable ball. Gratified, Kater left with it in its mouth. "Tangerine! Orange! Lemon! Gordon! Goldstein!" Upon hearing their names, the few orange cats padded over, meowing all the way. Klaus
