At that moment, seeing that all eyes were now on him, Master George knew he couldn’t lie anymore. His heart was beating fast, and his forehead started to sweat a little. He looked at Sophia, and the way she stared at him… he knew she could catch any lie he tried to say from now on.

He slowly let out a breath and looked down for a second.

Then, in a low voice, he said to him, “It’s better to take a little bit of shame… than to fall miserably.”

People in the hall started looking at each other. Some were already nodding, waiting to hear what he was going to say next.

At that moment without wasting any more time, Master George looked up and spoke clearly.

“Well… now I can confirm it,” he said slowly. “The old man… he is okay.”

A small gasp came from the crowd.

Master George continued. “The disease… it’s gone. The sickness that was inside him has been cleared. He is no longer sick.”

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.

    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

    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

    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

    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
