At that moment, hearing what

Marcus had just said, Master George’s heart pounded with conflict. The weight of integrity warred with the glitter of opportunity.

That contract he knew how long he had been fighting for it, how many nights he’d spent reviewing and adjusting the proposal, hoping someone in Marcus’s father’s company would notice.

It wasn’t just any proposal it was the breakthrough project his team had been banking on to elevate them to the top tier of Medical energy pills production industry. Millions were at stake. Years of groundwork. Endless promises made to his own people.

And now, standing before him, was Marcus the very bridge to that locked door offering him the key.

Immediately his lips pressed into a tight line. The logical part of him screamed it was unethical, but the practical part whispered louder. If Marcus personally handled the review, it meant not only swift approval, but also that the full fund request might actually be granted. Not trimmed. Not negotiat

    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, 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

    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, 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

    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

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.
