Joshua nodded in silence. For far too long, his humility had been mistaken for weakness, allowing society to trample over him. Little did they know he was powerful and possessed influence capable of bending the rules. Since society was not afraid to play the game, he too was willing to engage in their ruthless tactics. Those who dared to stand in his way would find no mercy.“Consider it done, Mr. Don Cara,” the manager said, his voice dripping with confidence. The look in Joshua's eyes made the manager swallow hard. His decision wasn't satisfactory to him. “S...she won't be able to work in this city,” he quickly added.The sudden smile on Joshua's face made the manager release the breath he had been holding. If Ms. Felicia had upset someone like Don Cara, her reputation and career would have ended. With her sudden firing, no company would willingly take the risk of hiring someone whose past employers questioned her competence.Joshua stood to his feet, then glanced at the manager. “O

Mr. Sottee mirrored his gaze at the lady standing in front of the bank; her frustration was evident. She pressed her phone tightly against her ear as she exchanged a heated conversation with someone on the other end of the line.“Is she an acquaintance of Mark’s?” Mr. Sottee asked.“From the look of things, not anymore,” Joshua replied, his eyes narrowing as he observed the color drain from her face. It was clear that the person she called for help had disappointed her.Anticipating her reaction, Joshua stepped out of his car and straightened his tie before making his way toward her.As he approached, he could hear the whimpering sound that escaped her lips. “Are you crying, Ms. Felicia?”The lady, caught off guard, spun around, and her expression darkened as she realized who it was. “You!” she exclaimed, approaching Joshua with anger.“I wouldn't do that if I were you,” he said calmly. Ms. Felicia's feet rooted to the floor not from the warning, but from the composed demeanor that in

The old man lowered his gaze to the floor, at a loss for words. When he finally realized that Joshua was still in the room, he looked up, and before he could say anything, Joshua spoke first.“I’m coming back, Mr. John,” he said. The man, whose first expression didn't understand what Joshua was getting at, furrowed his brow. “I'm returning to the company,” Joshua repeated. Mr. John, seeing his serious expression, slowly widened his eyes. He turned to Mr. Sottee, who also wore a similar expression, then nodded his head and smiled at him.“It’s about time you did,” he replied, glancing at his daughter. “I didn't tell you this, but I have always prayed for your return, and it saddens me that I won't be here to serve you due to my health,” he paused, his eyes dropping to the floor.Joshua was quiet for a moment, then turned to Julie, who gazed softly at her father. The man she had idolized her entire life, who had wanted nothing but to fulfill the dreams of his children. Though she can'

A frown slowly creased Joshua's forehead. “If you're done, could you please open the gate?” he muttered, irritation lacing his voice.The third officer, surprised by Joshua's tone, stepped closer, his frown deepening into an expression of challenge. “Your ID?” he demanded, crossing his arms.Joshua scoffed. He didn't want any trouble, so he reached into his wallet and pulled out his ID. The officer briefly glanced at it, and Joshua could tell he didn't care about his identification. "Here!" the man said, tossing the ID at him. Joshua stared at the ID on the floor, and a hot breath escaped his lungs. Noticing his reaction, the first officer quickly squatted down to pick it up.“I apologize for my colleague," he said, as Joshua glanced at the policeman, who showed no remorse toward the one apologizing."Can I go now?" Joshua asked, and the man nodded."It seems you're good," he replied.Joshua knew that in an area like this, if you didn't arrive in a flamboyant style, you'd be consider

The girl chuckled, unable to tell if she should be worried, or continued with compliments. “Mr., this is the only piece in the world, and I will tell you a secret: this car is on loan to our company for only one week,” she added.Blake nervously ran his hand through his bald head, letting out a chuckle. “I... Is that so? Then it must truly be one of a kind,” he muttered, glancing at the salesgirl, who nodded with a smile.At that moment, the young salesboy, who had gone to confirm the price, came back. He stopped in front of Joshua, who was lingering in the shadows, observing the interaction. The salesboy cleared his throat. "Sir, I apologize for the delay,” he said, with a bow of respect.Joshua, with a small smile, acknowledged him with a nod. "Are you done with your confirmation?"The salesman nodded his head. “It costs $50,000,000," he replied, leaving the figure hanging in the air.Mr. Blake and the salesgirls turned their heads in the direction of the salesboy before resting the
