CHAPTER 201
The atmosphere in the private room became awkward once again. As one person pushed the door open, another turned on the bright overhead light, banishing the previous dim ambiance and illuminating the space clearly.Zach quickly glanced over. The expert friend really did look just like in the photos-quite photogenic, with no significant difference at all."What's going on? I heard you wanted to see me about something," the newcomer said, surveying the situation and clearly sensing that it wasn't a pleasant one. The boss stepped forward, chuckling a bit."I'm really sorry about today. I was hoping you'd come over for some good tea, but we've had a little incident in this room. One of our employees had her necklace damaged, and she claims it's worth 400,000."Upon hearing this, the woman looked around, then couldn't help but let out a cold laugh."Not to be rude, but I didn't realize your employees were hiding such treasures. A necklace worth 400,000? Really? I assume you just want me to
CHAPTER 200
Zach stood up abruptly, suddenly realizing that the woman was calling his name-not in the familiar way he was used to, but with a tone that ignited his anger. He couldn't believe he was being played by a woman he considered a gold digger. So, she wanted to play games, huh? Well, he would see if she had what it took."Harry, what's going on here? Who are these people? How dare they act so boldly in front of me?" he snapped, his irritation boiling over. He kicked the coffee table hard, sending drinks crashing to the floor. The room fell silent, the atmosphere thick with tension and embarrassment. Everyone around them froze, and Harry let out a cold laugh. This was a setup designed just for him. Now that he washere, there was no way he would leave without a fight. He could flaunt his bravado all he wanted, but soon enough, he would face the consequences."What's going on here? This isn't how things were supposed to go. Miss Betty, I called you here to keep Jack company, not to stir up t
CHAPTER 199
"Wow, you can really hold your liquor. Looks like your boss found a good one this time. She may look innocent, but she's quite the fiery girl." He certainly didn't believe there were anypure, innocent students in this bar; they were all just putting on an act. So, while he saw through her facade, he didn't take her seriously. The girl, however, wasn't offended at all. Instead, she smiled playfully as she set her drink down beside her and began to drawcircles on his chest with her finger, pretending to be delicate and shy."Since l've already had a drink, doesn't that mean Zach should have one too? Just to show some sincerity.""Sure! I'm more than happy to drink with a beautiful girl today," he replied with a grin. He picked up his whiskey glass again, but this time he poured a large amount of beerinstead. The glass was filled to the brim, with foam spilling over the top. The girl watched, her lips twitching in disbelief. What was he trying to do? Get himself drunk and act reckless
CHAPTER 198
He knew that if those guys were going to book a private room, they would usually reserve their usual spot. So he quietly climbed the stairs, brushing past some people, especially those stunning girls with amazing figures. He could feel a thrill of excitement building inside him. It had been a while since he had been in aplace like this, especially after the gambling incident. Today, he was determined to have a good time. As he pushed the door open, he noticed that the private room was surprisingly quiet, as if they were all waiting for him to arrive. The moment he stepped in, everyone turned to look at him, momentarily stunned, before they all sprang into action, greeting him with enthusiasm. Leading the charge was Harry."Zach! Finally, you made it! We've been waiting so long that we didn't dare to make a move without you. Come on, come on, take a seat in the middle! Let's fill up Zach's drink, fill it to the brim!" Zach felt a wave of nostalgia wash over him at their flattering wor
CHAPTER 197
Lawrence sat in his car, opening the two emails he had received on his phone, both from Miss Hutton. He quickly scanned the contents and found the identity information he needed. At least she was efficient in her work.Today, Lawrence felt that he had already said too much and didn't want to argue with that woman. It seemed like he had unintentionally revealed more than he intended, and now he was feeling a bit irritated. He figured he could take out some of that frustration on the personresponsible.After going through the emails, he realized that Thomas' wife came from a rather troublesome family. Her cousins sounded like a bunch of troublemakers-definitely not the kind of people you'd want to mess with. If he wanted to make a move. He divided the information and planned to head to the hotel, where he still had some business to attend to. Just as he was about to arrive, he received a response from the other party. Upon further investigation, he discovered that a few of these indivi
CHAPTER 196
In the elevator from the top floor, thereThere were only two people: Lawrence and Miss Hutton. After a few seconds of silence, it was Miss Hutton who broke the ice. "What's going on with you lately? I saw your mood just now, and it seems like you're upset with me. When did we become so distant? If there's somethingon your mind, let's just talk about it openly instead of keeping it bottled up." Miss Hutton had noticed the change in Lawrence's demeanor. Their previous relationship had always felt like she was leaning on him, but now that she was the boss's secretary, the dynamic had shifted. Sometimes, it even felt like she had the upper hand, which made Lawrence uncomfortable. But Miss Hutton wanted to preserve their relationship. After all, Lawrence had helped her a lot in the past, and she had relied on him as her safety net. Now that she had climbed to a higher position, there was no way she would want to go back down."Lawrence, don't give me that speech. You know exactly what l'
