Chapter 101
She had never, not even once, been in the presence of Director Josephine before.The woman was like a ghost in high places, rarely seen, rarely heard from directly. Even when she called on the phone earlier today, it had already been a surprise. But now? Seeing her walk into the hall in person, calmly and without warning, was something the manager was not used to.Her body stiffened. Her heart skipped. She stepped slightly to the side, almost by reflex.And she wasn’t the only one, the rest of the guests in the hall, all froze for a moment as Director Josephine stepped in.She wasn’t wearing anything loud or flashy. Just a simple, elegant suit and a pair of small glasses. But there was something about her presence. Something silent… yet strong.Anyone didn't need to be told she was important. You could just feel it.Without being told, anyone watching could tell that something was definitely going on. The air had changed. Even the light in the hall somehow felt different.However, Lon

Hearing Director Josephine words London's mouth opened slightly, but no sound came out. His heart skipped.Then Josephine took one step forward, her eyes locked on him. “Who gave you the right to act in my place? To decide who belongs and who doesn’t in a company under my care”Immediately London's face dropped.Immediately, without being told, he bowed his head. His proud shoulders slowly lowered, and his confidence started to shake.“I-I’m sorry, Director,” he stammered. “I was just… I was just trying to help. I didn’t want you to stress yourself because of… because of a nobody. Because of trash like this.”At that moment, London wanted to continue speaking. His lips had already parted, ready to explain more, wanting to say something worse, when—“SLAP!!”The sound echoed through the hall like a gunshot.Director Josephine’s hand landed hard across London’s face, and the force of it made his head snap sharply to the right.Everyone in the room froze.The assistants, the manager, the

Knowing fully well that Tyler and his mother would be severely punished, the manager stood frozen, her heart thudding hard against her chest.She had seen scenes like this before. In this kind of business world, people like Tyler and his mother people without a known name or strong connections didn't survive after upsetting someone like Director Josephine.Even if they were right, even if they did nothing wrong, power had its own rules.The moment the last guest left and the heavy doors closed, the manager’s hands began to tremble. She took one step forward, ready to whisper to Tyler and his mother—“Leave now. Please, just go. Before it gets worse.”But then… she saw something that stopped her in her tracks, Ssomething that made her eyes stretch wide in disbelief.Director Josephine… was bowing.Not slightly. Not as a formality, she genuinely lowered her head in front of Tyler and his mother, her posture calm and full of deep respect.The manager’s lips parted, but she couldn’t speak

She would then continue, her voice calm but firm, looking directly at Director Josephine,“You didn’t do anything wrong,. The person who was actually making mockery of us… trying to humiliate us in front of everyone… he has already been dealt with.”She gave a small sigh and shook her head gently. “So, I don’t have any issue. Please don’t feel bad.”Her words were honest and warm, but Director Josephine still kept her head slightly lowered out of respect.Then Tyler spoke up, his voice cool and collected, but respectful.“Well,” he said, glancing at his mother and then back at the director, “just like my mum said, we don’t have any issue with you.”He folded his arms gently in front of him and continued, “Since you’re here now, I believe we can just go straight to business.”Without wasting anymore time he pointed toward the digital board behind them where the image of the property was still displayed brightly.“We actually came here for the property showing on that big board over the

At that moment, hearing what Director Josephine just said, Tyler’s mother turned to her with a warm and genuine smile.“Thank you so much for the help,” she said softly, her voice calm and full of appreciation. “I’m truly grateful.”But before she could say another word, Director Josephine immediately lowered her head again, bowing slightly but respectfully.“No, please don’t thank me,” she said sincerely, her tone gentle and honest. “I should be the one thanking you… for how swiftly everything went.”She lifted her head slowly, her eyes holding a quiet shine.“I’m very, very grateful for everything,” she continued. “And I truly hope… that one day, we’ll work together again.”She paused, her smile deepening. “And I hope this relationship we just started today… continues.”Tyler’s mother nodded her head slowly, accepting the words with a kind look in her eyes, there was no more need for long speeches. The moment spoke clearly on its own.Then, at that moment, Tyler and his mother quiet

At that moment Tyler eyebrows furrowed when he saw it was Evelyn. Evelyn’s mother. Evelyn’s father. And Sophia.All of them were standing still.All of them were staring at Tyler and his mother watching them step out of the cage-looking house under the bridge.Sophia, at that moment, stood frozen, her eyes couldn’t blink. Her lips parted slightly as she stared at the old wooden structure in front of her.She couldn’t believe what she was seeing, she thought it was a lie. Just some twisted joke that Evelyn and her parents had cooked up to shame Tyler.But now… standing here… seeing it with her own eyes, this house built with weak planks, hiding under the bridge like a forgotten secret, it was all real.Tyler lived here, Tyler the same boy who turned down the offer.The same offer that, by any standard, could’ve changed his life overnight.And she couldn't believe he rejected it, Chose to stay here.In this… place.Sophia’s hands slowly fell to her sides. She was still in shock.She had

At that moment, Tyler slowly turned to face Evelyn, and the sharpness in his eyes made it clear he had reached his limit.His jaw clenched tightly, and his voice came out low, but every word carried weight.“You dare not utter another word, Evelyn,” he said, pointing a firm finger at her. “You’re getting on my nerves now… and let me make this clear, I’m not going to tolerate any more of this.”His voice didn’t need to rise. It was calm, but it hit harder than a shout.Hearing Tyler word's towards her Evelyn blinked, her smug smile faltering for a moment. The air between them tightened, and even Sophia glanced sideways, unsure of what to do or say.Without giving her another glance, Tyler turned back to his mother. His tone immediately softened.“Mum,” he said gently, “you’ve gotten what you came for. There’s no reason to stay here a second longer. Let’s go.”He turned and started to gesture toward the car, the sleek black Maybach waiting by the roadside, its polished body shining bene

The insults hung in the air like smoke.However Tyler said nothing. His fists were clenched, but he didn’t move. He didn’t speak either. His breathing grew heavier, but his eyes remained fixed on Evelyn's father Then, slowly, his mother reached for his hand.Her touch was soft. Her eyes were calm. But her voice, her voice held something deep.“Tyler,” she said gently, “if it were any of them… I would’ve left a long time ago.”She looked ahead, not at Evelyn’s parents, but at the road beyond.“I wouldn’t have even thought twice,” she whispered. “But this… this is different.”She turned to her son, squeezing his hand tightly.“Its the old master.”She paused, voice softening more.“If there’s anything you can do… anything at all… to save him, then do it.”She would continue, her voice trembling slightly, but her words strong and clear.“It’s not because of any of them that I’m standing here and listening, Tyler.”She turned slightly, casting a calm but heavy gaze toward Evelyn’s parent

At that moment, when Evelyn heard the words from Tyler's mom and saw the look on Tyler's face, she started to smile big. She could not stop it. It felt good inside. Now, Tyler and his mom knew what was real. They were back from their dream thoughts. If Tyler and his mom thought they could get in the same car and ride home with them, they were so wrong. People who looked dirty and had no home, like them, did not belong in the car with with.Immediately she said pointing at Tyler.“Now that you have come back to your scenes, good for you, but don't think you will drive on same car with us, it's not even possible.”Right away, Evelyn's mom spoke up. She said, “Yes, Evelyn is right. Tyler and his mom do not get that kind of help. They can walk on their feet or find a taxi.”With no more time to wait, Evelyn's dad took out his wallet from his pocket. He let some one-dollar bills and coins fall to the ground. They made a small sound on the floor. He said, “That is for you. It is enough to p

Without any more wait, Tyler went right to the room. He knew the old man was in there. When he got to the door, he pushed it open. Inside, he saw the whole family. They all stood up. Some were people Tyler knew from when he married Evelyn. But others were new to him. He had not seen them before. They came from far away, maybe. All of them looked sad and worried.Sophia was there too. She stood quiet in the corner. She did not say a word. This made Tyler feel very mad inside. why was she still here? But he hid his anger. He did not show it on his face. He just walked past everyone to the old man.The old man lay on the bed. He looked weak and sick. His face was pale. Before Tyler could open his mouth, the old man's younger brother spoke up. He was a big man with a loud voice. He pointed at Tyler and said, “Who is this good-for-nothing goof they brought here? Is this a turtle or what? What is he doing in this room?”At that moment Everyone turned to look at Tyler. They stared with big
