However, how could Zayn possibly forgive him? He immediately kicked Adam away from him.Despite being kicked, Adam still wanted to get back up and grovel once more, but Zayn immediately scared him away by saying, “Touch me again, and I’ll make sure that you won’t even be able to survive in this country anymore!”This time, Adam was thoroughly horrified and did not dare to approach Zayn again. He was completely broken emotionally and finally cried out loudly. When the crowd on set saw this scene, they were all shocked and felt that it was all very surreal.Soon after Zayn and Bobby left, personnel from both Black Athens and Violet Vision arrived. They fired Adam on the spot by sidelining him and writing him off from all future projects.Then, a new male protagonist was immediately brought in as a replacement. Furthermore, Annabelle decided to cancel her contract because of this incident as well.Following this incident, Zayn managed to burn an impression in everyone’s heads, especi
It was impossible that Zayn did not know what the intermediary was implying, but he did not mind it much. ‘I’ve been misunderstood so many times now that I’ve grown numb to it.’Then, the intermediary did not say anything further apart from mumbling a few words. ‘Well, the customer is king, so I guess I should do as he says.’“The best villa district within Waltz City would be in Barrow Cove, where the prices of the properties there are around 1.5 million dollars on average. However, the cream of the crop is priced higher than 4.6 million dollars.”On the journey there, the more the intermediary introduced more properties, the more he felt that Zayn was not a wealthy person.This was because Zayn’s reply would always be very simple and concise. All he would do was nod his head and say, “Alright, let’s go and have a look.”In fact, Barrows Cove was indeed the best villa district and was well-known within Waltz City. Not only were the properties in the neighborhood decent, but the f
“Let’s have a look at the most expensive villa in Barrows Cove,” said Zayn with a frown after he was unable to find a place that he was satisfied with despite having seen a few villas.The intermediary had a listless expression on his face as he said, “In order to deter some incapable people who can’t afford to purchase a villa yet would deliberately come up with an excuse of wanting to look at houses, the real estate agents here have set a rule. Anyone who would like to have a look at the most expensive villa in Barrows Cove must pay a deposit of 30 thousand dollars. Anyone unable to fork out this deposit will not be able to check out the villa.”“Does a rule like that actually exist?” asked Zayn with a frown on his face. ‘I’ve been living in Waltz City for so long now, and I’ve never heard of a scenario whereby a deposit has to be paid in advance to have a look at a certain piece of property. Plus, the deposit is a total amount of 30 thousand dollars… That’s just too much.’When t
Ruby had been feeling very troubled lately because Stella had been rather smug for the past few days. Stella claimed that her precious daughter, Skye, was dating a young, rich boyfriend who was a founder of a web hosting company that made three to four million dollars in annual profits. The profit margin of his company was even higher than the Carters’ Neotech Lighting Co. Moreover, he was going to purchase a villa that cost over one million dollars in Barrow Cove as a gift to Skye after they got married so that they could live together comfortably.Stella Harrison was the wife of Waine’s younger brother, Alan Carter. She was also Skye’s mother and she socialized with Ruby on most days. Ruby was sensitive about her own reputation, hearing Stella’s show off so shamelessly made her sick to her stomach. At least her daughter was the chairman of Neotech Co. now, so losing to Stella was unbearable. As a result, she immediately agreed to join Stella when Stella invited her to view the prope
Skye was stumped by Ruby’s remark. They were genuinely planning on taking out a mortgage on the house. After all, one million dollars was nothing to sneeze at. Even her boyfriend Roman Reed was incapable of handing over such a large amount of money so easily. Of course, she could not possibly allow herself to say something like that. She was determined to put up a fight to defend her honor!Everyone in the Carter family was initially suppressed by Faye when she first became the chairman of Neotech Co. a while back. At the time, Ruby was constantly flaunting her prowess to the, and now after a great deal of effort, she managed to find a rich boyfriend who was willing to spoil her. Both Skye and her mother wanted to improve their reputation with such a useful advantage. As a result, she immediately threw a knowing glance at Roman. Upon receiving his approval, she put on a scornful expression and spoke even louder, “Heh-heh, what? A mortgage? I’ve never heard of something more pathet
Skye noticed Roman’s unending gaze and his inability to take his eyes off Faye. She pulled a long face at once and gave Roman a hard pinch. She scolded furiously, “Watch where you’re looking!”Roman was jolted back to reality from the pain. He jumped to explain himself to Skye, yet he still could not restrain himself from taking in the sight of Faye’s body. He could not resist it—Faye was truly a work of art. As one of the three prettiest women in Waltz City, her beauty was undisputed. It had become even more obvious after she was promoted. Her chairman status added to her beauty exponentially, and that made her appear even more attractive to men. Roman was considered a rather successful entrepreneur. He had no lack of experiencing mingling with beautiful women. However, he had never mingled with a woman of Faye’s status, so he was quickly enchanted by her feminine charm.Faye walked over to her mother and said, “Mom, how did you come up with the idea of getting a villa in Barrow C
There was no need to describe how awful Ruby felt in her heart upon hearing that. However, Faye’s gaze rendered her too fearful to act rashly. However, Skye’s next remark crushed her straightforwardly. “That is of course. Even though Faye’s a chairman, she’s still driving around her old, run-down Volkswagen. She’s nothing compared to my boyfriend Roman. He’s been driving a Bentley forever, heh-heh.”Ruby was infuriated at once. She stepped forward and said aloud, “Why do you have to be so sarcastic huh! Who’s to say that Fifi can’t afford a villa in Barrow Cove? We’re only trying not to hurt your feelings! Since you’ve already made your point, we shall make payment today and get those two villas then!”Stella and Skye were both astounded for a moment. They did not expect that Ruby would be bold enough to stake such a claim at this point. They could not help feeling a little guilty. Could it be that Faye was truly capable of paying over a million dollars for villa yet she was just p
Instantly, Stella and Skye were stunned for a moment. It was apparent that they did not expect that they would bump into Zayn here. One should know that Barrow Cove was a location for the rich and famous while Zayn, he was no one but a useless deadbeat. At the same time, Faye, Ruby and Waine saw Zayn as well. The atmosphere was becoming slightly awkward. “Zayn?” Stella called out at once, “How did you end up in Barrow Cove as well.”All this time, Stella and her family members looked down upon Zayn very much. Zayn was but the embodiment of a deadbeat and coward in their perception. They despised Zayn deep into their bones. Even after they learned that it was Zayn who placed 15 million dollars of capital injection in Neotech and made Faye into the chair sometime ago, they still despised Zayn because they did not think that Zayn was capable of having so much money. They were certain that it was Faye who latched on to Violet Vision’s chairman and made Violet Vision’s chairman inves
