Roseanna couldn't stop grinning as Dana took some steps away from the entrance.

"Dana," Roseanna called,

"Don't forget to kneel," she reminded before walking into the hall with Ethan, causing Dana to boil.

"Eric!!!! What kind of humiliation is this?" She asked, furiously.

"Calm down, Dana; I'm trying to sort things out," he informed.

"Why is it taking time for you to sort things out? Can you do it immediately!" She said.

Seeing that speaking with the security captain was useless, Eric took his phone out of his pocket and dialed his boss number.

"Who are you calling?" Dana was being impatient.

"My boss. He can sort the matter," he responded.

"Hello, Mr. Will Port," Eric said as soon as the man answered the call.

Will Port owns 5% of Secret Company's shares, and Eric has been bribing him for the longest time now.

"I need your help. I'm at the commercial dinner party, and I'm outside the entrance. The guards wouldn't let me in," Eric explained.

"And why is that?" Will Port asked.

"Well, the company gave out a supreme invite to someone we know..."

"The invite is fake, Eric; don't forget to add that," Dana cut in.

"Isn't that Dana?" Will port, asked.

"Yes, she's outside the entrance with me. Unfortunately, we were both kicked out," he informed.

"Wow. That's surprising." He paused, letting Eric assume the worst before saying,

"I can help you,"

Will Port was aware that Secret Company's mysterious heir would be coming today, and over the years now, he has noticed something odd.

In every meeting that the company has, Lilian, the CEO, would bring in impromptu information from the boss of the secret company that would always be of benefit to Dana's company, and finally this year, he had decided to go into business with her and make her one of his strongest partners in business.

Everyone was already clear that Dana was in favor of the mysterious heir, so hearing that the matter involved her and Eric, who happens to be her very good friends, he was sure that the power of the supreme badge invite could be bypassed.

After ending the call with his boss, he grinned, turning to the captain; he gazed at him triumphantly.

Suddenly, the security captain's phone started buzzing in his pocket; he took the phone out and answered the call.

"Hello,"

"Security captain! Why were the senior manager and Dana kicked out?" Will asked.

"It was the power exercised by the supreme badge, sir. You know the conduct and policy of the company," the captain said.

"You're not the one to tell me about the conduct and policy of the company; let the senior manager and Dana into the dinner hall," he ordered.

"Okay, sir," the captain said, hesitating.

After ending the call with Will, he turned to the security guard and said, "Let them in."

Dana grinned. "You're very lucky that you didn't lose your job," she threatened.

As they got into the hall, their eyes immediately fell on Ethan and Roseanna. Dana triumphantly walked to where they stood and flashed a smile of mockery on her face.

Roseanna was stunned to see both of them.

"Surprised? Do you really think you could play God because you have the supreme badge with you? And by the way, I'm really sure it's fake," she said, causing Roseanna to narrow her eyes.

"Yeah, you've gotten in, but I'm certain that the cooperation you so desperately want won't be given to you." She threatened, causing Dana to pause for a second before bursting into a fit of laughter.

"Oh, you're just so funny," Dana remarked in between her laughter.

"You'll see. You won't get the cooperation opportunity."

She paused, finally deciding to be serious. "And you think so because? Don't tell me it's because you have the supreme badge. You think you can walk up to the CEO and flash the card in front of her, saying, "Hello, CEO of Secret company, I have the supreme badge, and I want to exercise the power of the invite by removing Dana from your list of business partners? Just like that?" Dana asked, arching her brows.

"I can't do that, but I'm certain of what I said," Roseanna informed calmly, causing Dana to sneer.

"There's no way that can happen because Eric is the company's senior manager, and his boss owns 5% of Secret company, which is not even comparable to the badge you have, so I'd advise that before you start speaking gibberish, you should think again!"

"Besides, the badge that you both have might be fake, or you guys might have stolen it, but either way, the truth always comes out, and you both will soon be exposed and kicked out of the party," Dana added.

"Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Secret Company's commercial dinner party." The host said from the stage, causing Dana and Roseanna to shift their attention to her.

"I'm glad that everyone here could make it to this commercial dinner party." She added before opening a fancy gold-lined paper,

"This company was founded years ago, and most esteemed guests present here have taken part in the growth of the company." She paused,

"Today, I have two great news for everyone. Firstly, I want us to give a toast to the founder of this great company," she said, taking her glass of wine up, raising it to the air.

"To the founder of this great company."

"To the founder of this great company," everyone chorused, mimicking her action.

"The first news on my list is that this year, Secret Company has decided to cooperate with 10 companies, and their names would be announced soon." She paused. Letting the applause fill the air of the room.

"I'm sure you all are eager to know what the second news is." She said.

"Well. I would waste no time in telling you. The second good news on my list is that the mysterious boss of Secret company will reveal his identity today.”

    "Damn!" Rosanna murmured, recalling that she left her phone in her room. Rosanna had to leave the room and go back to her room, where she left her phone. On her way back to Daniel's room, the butler stopped her, saying, "Hello, ma'am. Your husband said you're not answering his phone and he has asked me to keep an eye on you."Rosanna furrowed her brows confused. "What do you mean? I wasn't answering his call because my phone was not with me, and I haven't even checked to see if I had a missed call," She saidThe butler was quiet, acting as if he didn't hear what she said. "I'll call him back, let him know that I wasn't with my phone and I don't need anyone to keep an eye on me," she said and walked past the butler but inside of him, to go the other direction, he started following her."What do you think you're doing?" She asked, frowning, "I'm following the orders that I was given." He responded, causing Rosanna to chuckle softly, finding it funny.She was tired of all the torture

    Mrs. Darnell was tired of the chatting and argument, so she decided to intervene. "What's this about? A necklace? Is it that you doubt that your brother can't get something original for his wife?" Mrs. Darnell asked, causing a sly smile to appear on his face, seeing that his mom has picked a side. "Thank you, Mother," Daniel said and leaned on his wife's shoulder before placing an impromptu kiss on her shoulder causing Rosanna to flinch, terrified "What's scaring you?" Kelly asked, giving a face because she has been noticing Rosanna's movement. "I'm not scared; I'm just feeling a bit weak," she said, causing Kelly to narrow her eyes. As much as she tried to feel a connection with Rosanna, she had a feeling that something was wrong. "You're just feeling a bit weak?" Kelly gazed at her, suspicious that something was wrong. "From what I heard, you do not leave the house, so how on earth are you weak?" She paused. "I know my brother has servants in his home, so definitely, you do

    Ethan chuckled softly; he noticed how Daniel turned to him, smirking as he refused to show his mom the gift he got for Rosanna until after dinner. "Don't you think that I'm a very thoughtful man? I mean, just 1 percent of men give gifts to their randomly," he said.Ethan glanced his time, getting tired of all the k. "Let's head to the dining table," Mr. Darnell said and turned to his wife."Urge the ladies to come down; we can't have a feast for a full day and not do anything productive," he said as he got to his feet. Mrs. Darnell turned to the stairs, and as their minds were connected, Selena climbed down the stairs with Kelly and Rosanna. Ethan's eyes first fell on Rosanna; she was thinner than the last time he saw her, and she had heavy makeupon. "Can we go now?" Selena asked, and Mr. Darnell responded with a small nod.He gestured for his two daughters to walk towards him; with the smile on his face, one could easily observe that he places high value on both girls.They got to

    After Ethan left the mansion, he got on his phone and made a phone call. "Hello." He said."Ethan, have you changed your mind?" Lorenzo asked over the phone causing Ethan to narrow his eyes, saying,"Look, I called you for a different thing, Lorenzo, and honestly, I don't think there'll be anything that would change my mind." He was stern with his response because the fact that Lorenzo brought it up annoyed him."Why did you call me then?" Lorenzo asked.He was trying to focus on the phone as he answered, "We had an agreement, Lorenzo. Have you forgotten?" He asked. That was not the main reason he called Lorenzo, but he chose to remind him about their initial agreement."What agreement is that, Ethan?" He asked, "because I don't recall you keeping your own side of the bargain."Ethan put the call on speaker and placed the phone on his thigh before resting both his hands on the steering wheel. "Dana gave me a call, and I don't think there's any need for me to meet her in person. I'm no

    A sly smile slowly formed on Ethan's face. "Are you scared of Mr. White?" he asked. Ethan narrowed his eyes and slowly strolled towards the only source of light in the room."I'm not scared of him, but the kind of authority he had, Ethan, and if you're not scared of that, then you don't value your children's lives," Elia said.It took Ethan a moment to respond, "I do." He smiled."But I don't fear Mr. White. There's nothing he can do to my children," he said, looking straight into Ethan's face."You don't fear Mr. Fear? Do you know what to do next? Do you know how to keep your children safe? Because honestly that's very important," she said, but Ethan did not respond.Ethan just turned away from the window back to her and said, "So the man you had a meeting with is one of the men working for Mr. White, right?" Elia just reminded me with a small nod. She was completely surprised that Ethan was nonchalant."I didn't think you were this nonchalant." She said, causing Ethan to chuckle d
