Zack smiled and said, "Yes, Chief."He stepped out of the office, closing the door behind him with reverence. As the door shut, the elevator opened, and Isabelle and Serena stepped out. Seeing Zack, they immediately greeted him with practiced smiles."Mr. Larson!"Zack glanced at them and headed toward his office. "Let's discuss this in my office. The chairman is resting, so please keep your voices down."Isabelle nodded quickly and stole a glance. Her eyes widened in shock when she noticed the "Chairman's Office" sign on the door. When did the Lormford Chamber of Commerce have a chairman?She exchanged a look with Serena, who also appeared surprised.Zack turned back and frowned at them. "Ms. Barton?"Both women flinched and quickly followed Zack, reluctantly pulling their eyes away from the office.This was the office of the chairman of the Lormford Chamber of Commerce, a position of far greater prestige than Zack's. Even catching a glimpse of him would be a great honor, let

Zack took a sip of coffee, shook his head, and said, "Sorry, Ms. Barton, I'm not authorized to mention the chairman's name."Isabelle's face went pale, shocked by Zack's statement. Zack was a major figure, the richest man in Lormford City, and among the highest-ranking individuals. Yet, he spoke so humbly, saying he wasn't qualified to mention the chairman's name.Serena was also startled. She quickly grabbed Isabelle's sleeve and whispered urgently, "Don't ask further. The chairman's identity is not something we are allowed to know!"Isabelle bit her lip, finally managing a forced smile at Zack. "I understand, Mr. Larson. I apologize for my presumptuousness."Taking a deep breath, she stood up and said, "Mr. Larson, we don't have any other business here, so we'll take our leave."Zack waved his hand with a faint smile. "Goodbye, Ms. Barton."As Isabelle and Serena left the office, her heart was still racing. Zack's words had hit her like a sledgehammer. If even Zack was so hum

Isabelle bit her lip and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh right, isn't Harry an employee at Lormford Chamber of Commerce? Maybe he can find out for us!"That could work. I'll contact him right away."Isabelle pulled out her phone and called her cousin, Harry Wagner. Soon, the call connected. "Hello?"Isabelle quickly responded with a smile. "Hi, Harry, it's me, Isabelle!""Oh, Isabelle! What's up? Why are you calling me?"Isabelle replied, "I need a favor, Harry.""What is it?"With a gleam in her eyes, she asked, "Do you know anything about a new chairman at the Lormford Chamber of Commerce?"Harry was taken aback and sounded confused. "A chairman? I didn't know about that. What's going on?"A bit disappointed, Isabelle sighed and said, "Never mind if you don't know. Could you keep an eye out for who this chairman is? I visited the Lormford Chamber of Commerce today and saw an office labeled 'Chairman's Office.' I'm hoping to find a way to connect with this chairman."Harry chuckle

Cora rubbed her worn hands and said, "Timothy, listen to me. Return the furniture. These old pieces are still good. We don't need to waste money on new ones!"Timothy was touched. His parents had lived in poverty all their lives, and now that he had money, he couldn't bear to let them suffer even a little bit.He shook his head and said, "Mom, Dad, just trust me. I've got everything arranged. You'll be able to move right in!"Without giving them a chance to argue, he led his parents and Tiana out of the small courtyard. They flagged down a cab, and all four of them got in.The cab driver looked at Cora and Joseph, who were dirty from cleaning their home, and frowned disdainfully. "Where to?"Timothy replied, "Dragoncrest Manor District."The driver blinked in confusion, staring at Timothy. "Are you joking? Where do you want to go?"Timothy repeated, "Dragoncrest Manor District. Do you not understand?"The driver's expression turned odd as he looked over the backseat passengers.

With a smile, Timothy said, "Mom, we haven't come to the wrong place. It's right here."Joseph, unable to hold back, asked with a tremor in his voice, "Timothy, this place must cost tens of thousands per square foot, right? Are you renting or buying?"Timothy chuckled softly. The Dragoncrest Manor District was the most expensive place in Lormford City, with prices reaching over 200,000 per square foot. That figure was beyond his parents' imagination. He shook his head and said, "No, the price here is only a few thousand per square foot.""A few thousand per square foot?" The elderly couple looked at Timothy with suspicion. Tiana, too, puffed out her cheeks, her face full of surprise. "The price here is only a few thousand per square foot? I thought it would be tens of thousands!"Timothy laughed and didn't say more. "Dad, Mom, Tiana, let's go in. I'll show you around."Joseph still had some reservations. "Timothy, are you sure your house is really in here? I don't feel like th

Timothy glanced around and was about to speak when a young saleswoman approached them. Sporting a bun, a cute black hair clip, and high heels, she appeared to be in her early 20s. Smiling, she asked, "Hello, sir. May I have your name?"Timothy raised an eyebrow and looked at her name tag, which read Lilian Lovelace. He returned the polite smile and said, "I'm here to see William Dawson.""Mr. Dawson?" The saleswoman seemed surprised and momentarily puzzled.At that moment, the clacking of high heels approached, followed by an irritated voice. "Lilian, you're supposed to be receiving our clients during work hours."An attractive woman in a tight black skirt appeared. Her face was one of clear disdain and irritation. She glanced at Timothy and his group, quickly covering her nose with her hand and frowning as she said, "Where did these smelly beggars come from? This isn't a place for people like you! Get out!"Seeing Tiana's difficulty walking, the woman's disdain deepened. She to

Timothy waited for a while, growing increasingly impatient as there was still no news. During this time, Lilian brought each of them a glass of water.Timothy had a good impression of Lilian, but after waiting a bit longer with no updates, his patience wore thin. His parents grew restless, repeatedly trying to leave. They were clearly uncomfortable in the upscale environment, especially with the occasional disdainful glances from others.Timothy, losing his patience, noticed Jane in the lobby chatting with other clients, wearing a full, flattering smile. She continued to ignore them, so Timothy called out loudly, "Ms. Ziegler, what did William say?"That interrupted her conversation with her client. Hence, her expression darkened. After a few more words and a few smiles to the client, she approached Timothy looking irritated.Crossing her arms, she said sharply, "Mr. Dawson isn't here. Ms. Wallace is in charge now, and she says you need to leave immediately! If you don't, I'll ha
Too Late for Regrets Chapter 127
Inside the office, a woman was lying on the desk, her legs draped over the shoulders of a man standing in front of her. The woman, with her hair tied up and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, had flushed cheeks and was breathing heavily. Her long, black-stocking-clad legs lifted over the man's shoulders as she wriggled her hips seductively. Her ample bosom swayed with each movement as she clung to the man's neck with one hand and braced herself on the desk with the other.She leaned into his ear, whispering breathlessly, "Mr. Kent, we agreed that the contract for that property should be signed this month—"Fred Kent leered, "No problem, sweetheart. You're doing such a great job. I'll make sure it happens even if you didn't ask."He gave her rear a firm slap, eliciting a loud moan from her. She smiled seductively, "Then, Mr. Kent, make sure to introduce any friends of yours who are looking to buy houses to me.""Sure thing, darling! You're so dedicated. It's no wonder you're the top sal
