Fiona's gaze became colder. "Please, don't cause trouble at my workplace, Samuel." she bowed her head, holding back tears and hoping that Samuel would leave the office soon. For the first time, she was really very disappointed with Samuel. 

Samuel remained calm. "I just want you to rethink that decision."

Anthonio couldn't contain himself for too long. Samuel's arrival would only have a bad influence. And that would be the same as doubting all his decisions and work so far. 

"Stop being a smartass here." His voice was hard and full of emphasis. Anthonio's eyes flashed as they locked eyes. "You don't know anything. No one will listen to you, including your wife, but you're so stubborn."

Anthonio's gaze shifted to Fiona. The woman's face had turned red. He knew she was holding back the shame of her husband's actions. 

"You should have left a useless man like him long ago." Anthonio deliberately burned Fiona. On this occasion, it would be easy to influence Fiona. "He doesn't even benefit you in any way. Instead, he'll drown you."

"Everyone knows that you're a smart woman. And you shouldn't have to put up with a man like him." He stopped his sentence momentarily, looked at Samuel, and continued. "He will only make you ashamed and suffer for the rest of your life."

Everyone joined him in urging hi, on. Meanwhile, Samuel stood calmly. All the insults did not affect him; he just wanted to remind Fiona to be careful when taking action. But Samuel knew that Fiona doubted him. 

Elsewhere, Adam had just gotten out of his car. Looking at the clock on his hand, he felt anxious. "It seems that I'm already too late to meet with Master Samuel. Is he okay now?"

Without straightening his suit, he quickly walked into the building. He headed to the Lotus room. But he did not find Samuel there. 

"Did Master Samuel get lost?" Adam regretted himself. He should have escorted Samuel to the room before leaving him. 

Adam turned around and looked elsewhere. But just as he got out of the elevator by accident, he saw a crowd of people. Of course, this piqued his curiosity. "What's going on over there?"

He could see that everyone standing around was tense. "Is Master Samuel there?"

Adam came closer, but he was shocked. Not only did he see Samuel there, but everyone was treating him so badly. 

"Quickly drag him away from here. His arrival only brings trouble!" Anthony's loud voice made Adam's anger flare up even more. 

"How dare you do something like that to him." Adam shouted with rage. He felt his blood flowing rapidly. No one should have humiliated Samuel so severely. 

Everyone turned around. Those who were there noticed Adam's appearance. He was well dressed and neat, believing he was an important man. But they didn't know who Adam was. And he shouldn't be meddling in their affairs either. 

Anthonio looked at Adam, catching his rapid breathing. "He's just a poor man. He's not part of this company either. Let him be thrown out of Medco.inc."

It was strange that the well-groomed man showed such anger. He even stood beside Samuel in support. "Stop that stupid stuff. You all know nothing!"

After that shout, Anthonio fell silent. He took one more look at Adam's appearance. All the clothes on his body were branded, and even the shoes he wore had a price tag of at least ten million dollars. He was even more convinced that Adam was no ordinary person. 

"Mr. Samuel is the owner of Lezzen Company." Adam said that to everyone. 

This was very surprising. Lezzen Company was a large company that Medco. Inc. had been looking to work with. Lezzen Company was bigger and more potent than Medco. Inc., and those who work at Medco. Inc. are not necessarily able to work there. 

This doesn't make sense. And how could such a big company be led by a man like Samuel? Not only is he poor, but he has no experience. He doesn't even deserve to be a gardener there. 

Anthonio shook his head. "It's all impossible." He refused firmly. 

Fiona immediately wondered if her husband might have been playing a trick. She wanted to stop this immediately, not wanting things to get worse. "Samuel, stop all this nonsense. And tell me the truth."

Fiona urged Samuel. She took hold of Samuel's dull sleeve. Then, he shook his arm. "Don't talk nonsense, or it will get you into even bigger trouble. Don't embarrass me."

Fiona was on the verge of tears. She didn't expect her husband to get her into trouble. 

Samuel calmed her down. He held her hand gently. "But he said the right thing. I am the leader of the new Lezzen Company."

"Fiona you have to believe me." Samuel emphasized. He even looked into Fiona's eyes. Wanting Fiona to get rid of her doubts. "I said everything correctly."

Adam, who was there, nodded his head. "Miss Fiona, you don't need to doubt your husband."

Fiona was silent as she watched Adam closely. She didn't know why Adam was so serious about it. Great doubts were still lodged in her heart. 

Samuel held her hand tightly. "You have to listen to me, Fiona."

"Corporindo's stock is really bad, and it caused the stock price in Medco. inc. to drop." he exhaled this time. Then he continued, "You can see it on the internet. All that news has probably spread slowly by now."

Fiona didn't say anything, but a strong urge in her heart made her take out her cell phone and look into the truth. At this moment, she was surprised to find out that everything Samuel said was true.

She should have seen some news spread.

They were about the corporation's declining performance and rumors that went against the law. Although they were not specific, they were true, as Samuel said that they would affect his company. 

"Undo that partnership, or things will end up worse." Samuel's voice made her raise her head. 

"Medco.inc cannot cooperate with Corporindo. Besides, Medco.inc will soon be cooperating with Lezzen Company."

Everyone was amazed to hear that question. One of them became excited. "Lezzen Company, that's an amazing company. It's certainly much better than Corporindo."

Anthonio couldn't believe it. Knowing that everything was just a trick. A man like Samuel would never be able to become a leader in a big company. He was confident that Samuel was far beneath him. 

"How can you believe that trash talk? It's certainly not possible."

"Don't forget that he is a useless husband and lives like a parasite." he pressured Samuel to do so. 

At the same time, someone appeared. He was the director of Medco. Inc. and immediately came to confront Adam. "Mr. Adam, are you here? You should have come to my office."

"Even if you said you were coming beforehand, I will make you welcome." The Director was being very polite. He even put his hands together with a slight bow. 

Anthonio was astonished. He looked at the Director with confusion. "Actually, who is he, sir? Since earlier, he's been meddling in this affair."

The Director glanced at him coldly. "He is an important person from Lezzen Company."

Adam glanced at Anthonio coldly, then spoke to the Director. "This man has been disrespectful to me and the leader of Lezzen Company."

The Director's eyes rounded at Adam's use of the word leader. "Leader? Where is the leader of Lezzen Company?" It was a great honor to know that the leader of Lezzen Company was willing to set foot in this place. 

Adam immediately pointed at Samuel. "He is the leader of Lezzen Company."

Unexpectedly, the Director immediately bowed low before Samuel. "Welcome, sir. We're glad to know that you're here. We should have prepared a lavish welcome." He greeted him kindly. 

But Samuel's face was cold, and his gaze was piercing. "Are you not going to do anything about that man's behavior?"

Samuel's words made him tremble. He didn't want one mistake from Anthonio to ruin everything. With an angry look, he shouted at Anthonio, "What are you waiting for? Quickly apologize to the leader of Lezzen Company."

Anthonio was sweating. He hadn't expected the situation to turn out so badly for him., but he had no choice. With his head bowed, he said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Samuel." His lips trembled as he spoke. 

Samuel didn't want to look at him. He chose to leave and was followed by Adam in silence. 

While Fiona was there, she immediately ran to catch up with her husband. "Samuel, wait." she quickly caught her husband's hand. She smiled widely. She could not hide her admiration at the moment. "Samuel this is really amazing. But how did this happen?"

    The woman seemed so scared that her body was shaking a little, she even felt her palms wet with cold sweat and then with fear the woman spoke. “I—I… I didn’t see Mr. Samuel’s name on the list of important guests,” Then the woman looked at the security guard and said, “Maybe Mr. Samuel didn’t tell me correctly!” The security guard felt very annoyed with the receptionist, as if his eyes were wide open. “How could you say something like that? I’ve even asked you to check it several times and you said that there was no Samuel’s name listed there! And that’s why I strictly forbid Mr. Samuel from entering this company.” “I’ve even told you about Mr. Samuel and why are you making excuses now?” The security guard looked annoyed with the receptionist. How could the woman deny it when she had been caught red-handed. Moreover, the receptionist’s excuse could endanger him while he as a security guard was only doing his job. It is true, his job as a guard is only to receive guests

    The next day, Lyla felt her head was very dizzy after thinking about Samuel's changes. "I don't think it's possible. How could he change so quickly?" Lyla exhaled roughly.She walked back and forth and occasionally massaged her head which was starting to hurt. "Where did he get that much money? He's just a servant who has nothing.""Ah no. Why do I have to keep thinking about that man? I think this is a mistake. There's no way he could change that easily." Lyla seemed to convince herself.Lyla took her white bag. She wanted to take her cellphone which was inside there, but her hand accidentally touched a small object and she immediately saw it. It was an access card to a gathering event that was only attended by socialites.Her eyes seemed to move as she studied the card. "Rather than keep thinking about that stupid man, I'd rather spend some time there."Lyla immediately got ready. She wore her best dress and immediately left her house until after an hour of travel, Lyla had arrived

    Samuel stared at Lyla's face coldly. "Oh so it turns out I work with you?" Reynol shifted his feet slightly to look at the two people who were staring at him sharply. Then he spoke again, "Then how come I don't have money when I work for a big family like the Bernard family?"Samuel's question immediately made Lyla and Thomas silent. They became hesitant and afraid to speak again. And at this time, the two people looked around. In fact, the people there, directed their gazes at the two of them"That's because you never paid me." Samuel revealed the fact in front of everyone here. Everyone was currently whispering to each other, even some of them looked at Lyla while shaking their heads. The Bernard family name was not a foreign name to their ears. Until when Samuel said that he was not paid, it shocked everyone.Samuel's hands were in his pockets, his gaze still looked cold. "I'm not a servant. And that man is your lover." Samuel stared sharply at Thomas who was beside Lyla at this ti

    A man's footsteps walked very calmly. While both of his gazes were straight and looked very firm. "Found it."A man with sharp eyes was watching a man who was none other than his wife's lover. At this time, Samuel saw that the man was talking to someone else. But for now, Samuel chose to ignore the man first, because he could not be seen yet.Samuel was at a fundraising event held by an important community there. And Thomas's arrival had actually also been arranged to make a donation at the event. And of course because he wanted to raise his reputation among the people who attended the event.The event was just about to start, suddenly Lyla came who also attended the event. The woman immediately looked for a seat right next to Thomas' body, until now they seemed to be sitting quietly. While without them knowing if secretly, Samuel watched her from a distance not too far away. Samuel looked at her with a cold gaze."Welcome to everyone who has taken the time to attend a fundraising eve

    Inside the narrow room, Samuel stared coldly at the rows of iron bars in front of him and this made him very sick. His annoyance had not disappeared after knowing that Lyla had given him a painful betrayal and now, of course, he would not let this happen just like that.Samuel looked at one of the policemen on guard. The policeman named Jeff had his legs up on the table, while his hands seemed busy playing with a smartphone far from where Jeff was sitting. Samuel looked at him coldly and said, "I want to call someone, can you give me the phone?"Jeff immediately turned his head, staring at Samuel with a sharp gaze. He thought that Samuel had disturbed his fun. But suddenly Jeff laughed loudly. He shook his head while lowering his legs from the table. "Are you kidding? You want to make a call?" He laughed again but in a split second, his face suddenly changed to being very serious. “You should be self-aware. Who are you to dare to borrow a phone? You are nothing more than a troublemake

    “Shouldn’t you clean that up right away!?” A woman was pointing at the spilled water that had just been spilled beside her. More precisely, it was the woman who had intentionally spilled the drink. Lyla looked at the man who had become her husband with a sharp gaze. A gaze full of emphasis and also full of anger. While Samuel who was there nodded his head. He said, “Yes, of course I will clean it up.” Samuel said it softly.Without having to wait long, the man with a tall posture, now immediately moved to take a cloth and with him cleaned up the spilled water as ordered by Lyla.Seeing Gideon who started working, Lyla seemed to smile slyly. She took her drinking water again and very deliberately, she poured the water back in a different place. “Clean this up too.” Lyla gave another order with a satisfied smile.Lyla continued to watch Samuel’s movements. He sat very arrogantly. He saw both of his hands in front of his chest, while his legs were also crossed like a boss who was paying
