Freddy glared at Gerald, wondering what about him was making the head of security guards disobey his own orders.“Oh, I see. This old head security guard must think you're some important guests because of your bodyguards, right?”Amara pointed at the head security guard with rising anger.“Are you really gonna risk your job for this lying loser?! Once I sign into this agency, my authority here will be unquestionable. Even the CEO would have no choice but to negotiate every demand with me. Are you sure protecting this orphan loser is worth offending me?!” Amara had just been messed with by Gerald and Juliet back at that restaurant on campus earlier today. Thus, she couldn't stand that the head security guard was openly ruining her chance at revenge.How on earth is she and her boyfriend supposed to humiliate Gerald in front of so many guests without the head security guard’s cooperation?This part was what made the couple so mad at the head security guard.Amara turned to Freddy, wra

The head security guard, Howard Thomas, quickly shook his head at this particular junction of thought he had arrived at.Staring at Gerald, he began to wonder: Could this really be the new chairman? It couldn't be possible, right? How can the new owner of PTA be such a young man? Gathering what Howard had heard from Freddy and Amara, Gerald was also a student of Westbridge University. So how can an undergrad be the new chairman of PTA?Howard Thomas had so many doubts, and thus, dispelled his suspicion about Gerald.In the meantime, Freddy's associate, Nigel, was still getting beaten up in public at the hands……or rather, at the fists of Head Bodyguard Kevin.Head Bodyguard Kevin was already done serving the corrupt authority figure of PTA the first ten slaps, as per Gerald's command. Now, he proceeded to serve Nigel the remaining five punches, as Gerald had also commanded.By the time Kevin was done, Nigel's face was swollen and bloody.Amara and her friends were truly shocked by th

Amara glanced around at the audience watching the scene. She tried thinking of ways to get out of this situation. The CEO’s P.A. had just ordered her to be detained along with her friends and boyfriend. This was definitely an act of humiliation on her first day at this place. Even if she does eventually get signed by PTA, she'll forever be reminded of this day by the people here.As an upcoming celebrity, she was very informed on the importance placed on many medieval social etiquettes that still thrive immensely within the entertainment circles.One of these old social rules concerns how well a first-timer is treated at an establishment. If the newcomer is treated well, the person would see this as the company showing how important the newcomer is to them. Naturally, the company's staff will have to be respectful to this newcomer.On the other hand, if the newcomer is treated like some trashy criminal, it is expected that the people who work at this headquarters would see this as a

Not expecting that the CEO would suddenly speak to him, Howard quickly tilted his head forward in a show of respect.“Mr. Gregory, I'm Howard Thomas, the head of the lower security guards in this building.”He wanted to demand what a lower security guard was doing here, but he quickly remembered that this man had followed Gerald and his crew into this office.As if reading her older brother's mind, the P.A. quickly confirmed his assumption.“Big bro, the chairman permitted him to come up here as well. I don't know why though.”Since this old head of security was brought here by the new chairman, he wanted to interrogate someone else, but he knew that it was too late, as he had already begun interrogating the man. Thus, he could only continue, hoping that the fearsome chairman wouldn't be pissed off. To decrease the probability of this happening, the CEO spoke to Howard Thomas with respect.“Mr. Thomas, right? Tell me, what exactly happened?”As the head security guard began giving a

Gerald ignored everyone's shocked gaze on him, simply focusing on Howard with a calm smile.“You heard me perfectly, Mr. Thomas. Today, you showed an impressive level of diligence in your duty despite the fact that your career was on the line. Honestly, I wouldn't have blamed you if you had eventually succumbed to the pressure from that scumbag employee, Nigel.”He chuckled with a nod of his head as he recounted the old man's righteous actions.“Yet, you actually kept your heart steady, standing up for me in the face of danger. For that, I see no other person fit to lead the elite team of security guards. Tell me, Head Security Guard Howard Thomas, do you accept this new position?”On his knees, Howard felt like the sky was being pressed down on his shoulders as he felt the weight of everyone's gaze on him. The CEO’s office is filled with very important people he could only dream of being acknowledged by. Yet, they were all now giving him their undivided attention, waiting for his r
