Anthony delightedly glanced around the sleek phone and nosily captured an object. His eyes flew open wide, and he gasped, shocked. “Wow! The camera is so luminous just as she has said,” he said, almost loudly, clearly impressed.He placed it aside after some minutes to explore the laptop. Pressing the power button, the screen fluttered to life, displaying a blue wallpaper. Anthony's finger moved on the touchpad as he navigated through the laptop slowly. Not long, he paused, his face twisting into a little frown. “Hadn't operated it before. I still need to learn it, and with time, I'll get used to it.” He said, shutting it down and placing it on the table gently.He reached out for his old phone and did a quick transfer of his SIM card to his device. He slowly began to explore more about the phone with a pleasing smile. As he was checking things out, a thought walked into his mind—to call his parents. “It's been long since I last heard from them both. Let me check how they're doing

Meanwhile, still driving on the road with both parties quiet except for the hum of the car. Georgina finally broke the silence in the car, her voice calm but polite. “I'd like to drop off in a few minutes. We're just a few drives away from where I stay.” She saidAnthony nodded, taking note. “So, you live around this street?” He asked, glancing around.Georgina replied. “Yes.” “Are you living with someone….your boyfriend? Or do you live alone?” “Boyfriend?” Georgina chuckled softly, shaking his head. “No, I'm living alone.” Anthony glanced back at her briefly before focusing on the road ahead. “That means you don't have a boyfriend?”Georgina's cheeks flushed with shyness. “Not, I don't,” she answered, her voice dripping with resentment. “I once had a guy I was crushing on before he traveled outside the country. He's back now, though, but I don't want to have anything to do with him ever again.”Anthony raised an eyebrow. “But why? He asked, observing her reaction from the rearview

“Please, stop it, Harry,” Charlotte said softly, letting the bundle keys slip from her palm. Harry stared down at her, blinking in confusion. “What is it, Charlotte?” He asked, concern evident in his voice. Picking up the keys, Harry took a seat beside her. “You wanted a car and now you are rejecting it? Why?” He continued, slightly annoyed. Charlotte looked at him, a glimmer of frustration in her expression. Taking a deep breath, she replied. “The car is no longer important to me, Harry. A contract with Almighty Anthony's Empire is all I want. I can get any car that I want once I'm working with them.” Harry stared at her and he sighed. Leaning forward, he started, “Charlotte, I thought we agreed we would be going together to see the chairman this time?” He asked. “Why are you feeling worried now?” He reached out her hand, squeezing it reassuringly. “Everything will be ok and we'll get the contract, trust me!” But Charlotte pulled her hand back, shaking her head, clearly disp

Anthony turned to look at her and he smiled gently, his expression unreadable. Georgina didn't let him reply when she started again. “You guys must really love each other,” she said, her voice calm and warm, trying to mask her envious voice. Still smiling gently, Anthony sighed and shook his head. “Sarah is just a friend. There's nothing between us,” he clarified gently, before shifting his focus to the car. He initiated it, drove gently out of the place, and then launched it onto the road. Georgina swallowed hard, and she felt a surge of relief washed over her. Taking a deep breath, she leaned forward, curiosity raised. “Does that mean you aren't in any relationship?” Anthony gave her a sharp side glance, his hand steady on the steering wheel. “Huh?” He murmured, pretending not to understand her question. Georgina shifted slightly and repeated. “I mean, you don't have any girlfriend?” She asked though she felt like the question was a bit odd. Anthony glanced at her throug

Anthony smirked lightly. “Yeah, it's mine,” he replied, his voice casual. Then he opened the front door, placed the items in his hand on the leather seat close to the driver's seat, and shut the door.Turning over, Anthony glanced at Georgina with a reassuring but harmless smile, gesturing for her to enter the car. “Move in and have let's go,” he said Without waiting for her response, Anthony slid in, taking his seat in the driver's seat. Georgina swallowed hard, a flicker of fear tried to kick into her heart, not believing this young could be this wealthy. After a brief reluctance, she finally nodded, opened the passenger door, and slipped herself inside. The moment when she entered, the interior sent a wave of shock down her spine.The interior was stunning, and the faint new smell of what seemed like a newly bought car sliced through the air softly.A flicker of disbelief crossed her eyes as she sat on the soft leather, her eyes glancing around as if inspecting it. Her fingers m

The staff member's face burned from the slap. His eyes widened as he raised an eyebrow, confusion, and surprise plastered on his face.The manager continued, visibly furious. “Do you have any idea who that guy is? You think he's someone just ordinary? You must be clueless! And that's why I'm going to forgive you and not punish you.”He wasn't done yet. He went on, his voice softening slightly, as he started to explain, making sure the staff member got it clear. “That guy you saw,” he turned his gaze, pointing toward Anthony outside, “he's rich. The day I finished dining at Saffron and Sage restaurant earlier, I met him right at the counter when I was just about to make payment. He was also there to pay his bill as well, and do you have any idea of what he paid without blinking? $20,000! And you think he can't settle $3k?”His soft voice changed and he pointed his finger at the staff member, angered, his sight triggering it. “Next time you dare try to pursue a potential client away wi
