Stanley doesn't say much. He has gotten more than enough from Mister Gibney, and now he has the strong alliance of Anne Gibney. After the meeting, he leaves, and Mister Gibney returns to his party, so as not to raise any suspicions. More expensive wine is brought and poured to the guests, and the VIPs who saw Stanley embarrass him will be forced to sign non-disclosure agreements before the end of the night. He might have fooled everyone, but not his highly intelligent daughter, Anne. She stands in the corner, sipping her wine and ignoring the lusting millionaire bachelors that comes to pull her into small talks. No, her eyes are on her father, and him alone, and once he goes into another private room to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief, she sneaks in like a thief. "Oh my God, you nearly scared me to death!" He jumps. "I thought you had gone back to your penthouse apartment, Anne?" "Because I need to talk to you," she pushes her eyebrows together. "What trouble did you get you

For the next three weeks, she buries herself deep into the to see this project that Lord Snow put into her hands, come to life. It's not easy, there are times that she has to drink so much coffee, and if not for Paris bringing her meals every now and then, she would practically starve herself, but at the end of the three weeks has come, and the product is ready to launch, the numbers are very promising. She is standing in front of the boardroom, while members of her team stand up and clap their hands together for her. "Wow, Mrs Adkins, you have seriously accomplished this at a record time!" "Where have you been all this time? You are definitely Lord Snow's greatest asset!"

Seven is not going with Stanley, because he has been send on an errand to a different country, and so Stanley goes alone. It's a huge fuzz all over the world, but for Stanley, who is even going to be honored, he calmly takes two suits with him, and uses his private jets. "Sir, I have made the reservation at the Burj Khalifa for you. This is very convenient, because the Dinner meeting is taking place in the same building," Paris says over the phone. "Splendid, Paris. Thank you," "I'm also looking into hiring at least fifty guards to keep you protected since Seven is not with you –" "There is no reason for that, Paris. I will be fine being all on my own," Stanley corrects her. She is stunned at the other end, she has never understood how her boss lives such a calm an anonymous life when he has the money to turn the world upside down.

The kids look at each other with amusement written all over their faces. They have honestly become terrors to the city, but until now, no one has ever thought to discipline them like the way Stanley is about to do. "Young man, you must be silly." "You think that we are going to be scared of you because you are using the private elevator?" Stanley, hands deep in his pocket and being as cool as a cucumber, he looks the boys deep in their eyes. "I'm saying that this rude behavior is the biggest mistake of your lives, and I am going to make sure that you boys learn a lesson or two." Faith is beyond surprised, but because she is one who works with big clients, she knows that his luggage is just as expensive as he claims. To be honest, she starts to feel sorry for them only because they look almost the same age as her junior brother. So, even though they look so far from being sorry, she turns to Stanley and gives him a very deep bow. "Sir, please don't punish them. As soon as you

A weight of shame falls on Prince Nabal as he turns to his sons. Even their mum has been so busy, and their caregivers never thought to report the bad behaviors. The boys succeeded in convincing everyone that they are indispensable, and that if the workers report to their parents, they are the ones to get into trouble. So, everyone has kept their mouth shut, because they don't want to lose their jobs. "Boys, is this true?!" Prince Nabal breathes out fire. "I do not think you have a good enough reason to destroy my friend's property!" "Baba, it was a mistake," the youngest steps forward. "He indeed told us he is not to be messed with, but... We thought he was kidding." Prince Nabal raises his hand and gives the boys each a nasty slap over the back of their ears. This is the highest embarrassment, and to think that he has spent so much on private tutoring to give his sons a better education. "I see that you boys have allowed our family wealth to get into your head, and you are se

When the day comes for the private Lord Snow appreciation dinner, no one can dare come late for the meeting, even though all the attendants are very rich themselves. Some are here to show support for the anonymous richest man, and others are here to finally catch a glimpse of him themselves. "Who knows? Maybe it's today that he will finally show his face!" Among the attendees is Meg and Roman Snow. For Roman, he hasn't heard anything from his nephew, and he is desperately trying to get back into his good grace. For Meg, she thinks that this is the time that she will finally see him, and that means that she can discuss that pressing issue that he seems to be investigating. Moreover, if he chooses not to attend, they can be here on his behalf, and it's going to be a huge honour for them. "Are you sure he is not coming?" Meg asks as she enters into the Benz waiting for them, she is adorned with gold from her head to her toes. "Like I told you five times already, Meg, he hasn't s

For a moment, Meg and Roman refuse to accept that the anonymous Lord Snow is actually going to show up. "Is this a sick joke? I will let you know that people who lie to me are severely punished!" Meg gives a strong warning, but the usher laughs sweetly. "Miss, we are all excited that he is coming, but this is a dinner to celebrate him, so why not?" She shrugs. "Please, let me take you to the common seats. I will inform a colleague to bring you a bottle of champagne for all your troubles." ****Stanley knots his own tie as he is kept in a private room, until he is prepared to go to the main hall for the event. No pressure if he is late or whatever. He is the man of the hour, and everyone must wait! He runs his hand over the sleeves of his suit, it's one of the prestigious Tradeux collection, and Martin made it himself. Since Lord Snow is the only person allowed to wear a Tradeux suit in the whole world, he is wearing this as a hint to his status, but he is sure that most of them

A low chuckle leaves Stanley's lips as he looks at his dear step auntie in-law. "Mrs Snow, why do you think I am still lying? Haven't you thought of the possibility that I am your long hidden Nephew?" But Meg shakes her head with a scornful sound. "The earth will turn over before you will be Lord Snow! You can lie to everyone, even Prince Nabal, but not me!" Stanley shakes his head as he runs his hand over his sleeves. "Really? Not even when I am wearing a Tradeux suit? You know it's the most expensive Tailor House, and they exclusively work for Lord Snow!" She waves off. "Lord Snow just gave it to you because he wanted you to deceive people better. You think I am dumb?" Anyway, Stanley just shrugs, because he knows she didn't come all the way here just to confront him. "Why are you here, Mrs Meg?" He asks her, straight to the point. Her hands fold. "Because I don't want Roman to know about this conversation we are having. Mrs Fanny Snow sent me to you." Stanley's stomach is

Lauren's face is stricken with shock. "A Ferrari? Where did you even get the money to buy such an expensive possession?" Stanley just laughs as he pulls her towards the door, where a car is waiting for them. "Don't ask too many questions, let's go already!" It's the same Ferrari that he got from Prince Nabal. Stanley is not one to go after flashy things, but because Lauren has been nothing but a wonderful wife, the car is going to be one of her gifts. Any other wife would be over the mood hearing that she is getting a Ferrari, but Lauren is worrying that he has taken some loans. Stanley takes her hand and kisses it. "Don't worry yourself, darling. There is no con to this gift." After driving for two hours, the driver gets to the government import department. It's already evening, and they are about to ask them not to walk in, but Stanley comes to the rescue once again. The signet, the same one that his ex-wife and everyone else thinks is a fake, he shows it to the security man

Richard Santos looks at Stanley, and a disrespectful chuckle leaves his lips. "Oh, just as I thought. You are married to an ordinary man, who is equally a loser!" He hiss. Mister Deravo's throat tightens with anger. He steps forward, because he can't allow this disrespect aimed at Stanley and his wife anymore. "Richard, stop immediately! How dare you insult this man? Don't you know that he is a very important person?!" Richard snickers without a care in the world. "An important person is my foot! I have never seen him in posters of any important company! Surely, if he is an important man, I would have seen him at one of my father's dinner parties!" Stanley laughs inside of him because Richard doesn't know him, but he knows Richard's family like the back of his hand. Mister Santos, Richard's father, has been sending hundreds of emails to Stanley, trying to strike a friendship and business deal, but Stanley has turned him down. To be honest, Stanley has a tough skin, but he won't
