A Loser Will Only Be A Loser

After the party ended, the Daltons were driven home by a driver from Davidson. But Agler and Pooja didn't come with them. They live at Davidson's house.

“My dear grandson, tonight is the happiest night for me because I can meet you and introduce you to everyone. Now, you and your wife should rest because tomorrow will be a very busy day for you. Ghani will show your room to you both. Have a nice dream tonight!” Davidson said to his grandson.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Agler and Pooja said in unison while lowering their heads.

After that they both followed Ghani to a room. Arriving in front of the room, Ghani said, “Master, Madam, this is your room. I've provided everything you need inside, but if you still need anything else, you can tell me."

"Thank you very much, Ghani. I think its all enough.”

"You are welcome."

Ghani leaves them both. Now, Agler and Pooja enter the room. They were astonished to see the room was so spacious. The furniture in it looks so luxurious and complete. "Oh my God! Is this really going to be my room? I never imagined having a room as luxurious as this. In fact, this room is three times larger than our previous room, Agler,” Pooja said.

"It's like a hotel room for a honeymoon couple," Agler replied.

“How do you know what a hotel room looks like for a honeymoon couple? You never even took me on a honeymoon at a hotel.”

"Ha ha. I often see it on television.” Agler puts his hand on Pooja's shoulder. "I'm sorry because from the beginning of our marriage, I never took you on a honeymoon. So, may I redeem it now?”

Pooja smiled as she looked at her husband's face. "Did you forget Mr Davidson told you to get some rest?" Pooja raises her eyebrows.

“Ah, he won't know what we're doing in this room? So, let's make this night being a long night, Honey!” Agler lifted his wife's body onto the bed.

In the morning, after taking a bath together in a comfortable bathtub, Pooja helped her husband put on a suit. She said, “It's like I don't know you when I see you wearing a suit like this. You look so handsome.”

"I've been handsome since I was born."

Pooja smiles.

“Pooja, actually I feel really nervous right now. Mr Davidson asked me to manage his huge business. I don't have any experience about business. What's more, your family always says that I'm stupid, I'm just a loser."

Pooja turns her head towards her husband. “You know, I never asked you to be the perfect husband. I just want to see you to try to be a better person. If you're successful, I won't demand much money from you. I just want to see you appreciated by everyone. You know, I'm really sad to see you being looked down upon by other people. It hurt me,” Pooja said with teary eyes.

Agler was saddened and touched by his wife's words, but he tried not to cry. “I will try again to be a good husband. Do you still want to give me a chance?”

“I always give you a chance, Agler. I never stopped doing that.”

"Oh, you're so kind. May I hug you?" Agler spreads his arms.

Pooja looked into her husband's eyes, no matter how angry she was with Agler, she never hated Agler because she loved Agler so much. So Pooja hugs Agler.

After that they came out of the room and had breakfast with Mr. Davidson.

“Pooja, are you going to accompany Agler today?” Mr Davidson asks Pooja.

"No, Grandpa. I have to work today.”

"Oh yeah? Where do you work?”

“I was an elementary school teacher.”

"Oh, nice! Teaching is a very noble profession. I'll ask my driver to drop you off later."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

After breakfast, Pooja leaves for the school where she teaches. Meanwhile Mr Davidson brought Agler to his company.

“Agler, this is the Elzio Company, the company that I have been building since fifty years ago. This company is engaged in jewelry. You know, we always produce jewelry every day. And the biggest jewelry store in town is owned by the Elzio Company. Now I will give this company to you, my dear grandson. You will manage this business in the future. Because now you are the CEO of Elzio Company.” Mr Davidson explained his business to Agler while taking Agler on a tour of the Elzio Company.

“Oh, this is really a big surprise for me, Grandpa. I'm actually really nervous right now. I don't have any business experience and now you've directly appointed me as CEO of Elzio Company,” Agler replied.

"Don't be pessimistic, Agler. You are a descendant of Davidson, you are my grandson. I'm sure you'll be able to learn everything quickly. You don't have to worry, everyone in this company will help you. Even you can ask for my help directly.”

Agler smiled, he began to feel relieved, then he said, “I will try to do my best, Grandpa. I promise, I won't let you down."

"Good. A leader must have an optimistic spirit.”

Suddenly, Xavier approached them. He greeted Mr. Davidson. “Good Morning, Uncle!”

"Good morning too, Xavier. Anyway, Agler, I have to introduce Xavier to you. He is the general manager of this company. He is also my nephew. He is Lucas' son."

"Lucas?" Agler frowned upon hearing the name. He remembered that Lucas was the one he talked to at the party last night, even Lucas had threatened him. Agler understood that he also had to be careful with Xavier.

"Do you know Lucas?" Davidson asked Agler.

"Yeah, I met him at the party last night."

"Good. He is my brother. So, you can call Xavier as Uncle."

"Oh I see. Nice to meet you, Uncle!” Agler bowed his head to Xavier.

Xavier replied with a faint smile. “Nice to meet you too.”

“Then Xavier will explain about this business to you. You know, I'm not strong if I stand for too long," Davidson said later.

“You can rest, Uncle. I will accompany Agler.”

"Thank you, Xavier!"

Davidson rested in his room, while Xavier accompanied Agler to tour the company. "What was your previous job?" Xavier asked Agler.

"Hmm?" Agler looked confused to answer the question.

"You never work, do you?"

Agler remained silent. Then Xavier smirked. “From the start, I suspected that Mr Davidson's decision to appoint you as CEO of Elzio Company was a foolish decision. I'm sure he'll regret it later."

“What do you mean talk like that? Are you underestimating me?”

"Of course. Being a CEO and leading a company as big as the Elzio Company is tough. Even people who have studied business science still find it difficult to lead this company, especially people who have never had a higher education like you.”

Agler seemed to sigh. He was used to being looked down upon by others from a young age. But then, Agler began to have the courage to fight back. He turned his body to face Xavier. "You're right, I'm not highly educated. But that doesn't mean I'm stupid. Managing a big business is something new to me, I have no experience in this field, but I will try to learn it. After all, I have the right to run this business according to my own ideas.”

“Do you have any ideas for the Elzio Company? Do you understand about jewelry quality? In fact, I'm sure you've never owned jewelry since you were a child.”

Agler smiled sarcastically. “I've never had jewelry since I was a kid, but I hope you don't forget that all the jewelry in the Elzio Company is mine right now. At first I thought you were different from your father. I wish you better than him. But now I understand, you and your father are two people I have to watch out for. Are you so jealous of me? Do you want to dominate the Elzio Company? Unfortunately, you and your father will never be able to get that.”

Having said that, Agler left Xavier there. This of course made Xavier very upset. “You can be arrogant now. But I will drop you. I will prove that you are not the real Davidson's grandson. You don't deserve to be the CEO of Elzio Company. A loser will only be a loser.”
