LOGIN“Oh, Rosalie and I are a little hungry, Daisy. What did you prepare? Thank you. You’re the best.”River did not usually eat late-night snacks, but he should have some, as his future mother-in-law prepared them.“I know you two don’t really eat late-night snacks because you don’t want to gain weight, so I didn’t prepare much. It’s just a chicken thigh for each of you. The free-range chicken was caught fresh in the countryside by one of our staff. They grow their own chickens.“Consider it a blessing from me to you two.”Rosalie said, “I can’t believe you prepared chicken thighs for us, Mom. I’ll gain weight after eating it.”“How heavy can you get just from eating a chicken thigh. Besides, you’re not fat in the first place.”“They all said eating chicken thighs is a tradition. I specially asked our staff to catch a chicken fresh, so that you two can have the best chicken thighs.”Indeed, it was customary for newlyweds in Solville to eat a chicken thigh each on their wedding day.
River happily took out the diamond ring he prepared and slid it onto her finger. He stood and hugged her, spinning her around several times in excitement.Rosalie was beaming.The crowd could not help but clap. Their vice president was finally getting married. They were surprised that she had chosen to marry the co-owner of their competitor.However, Crest Co. had stopped snatching clients of Summit Group nowadays. There were even indications that the two companies were going to collaborate.This was a result of Rosalie and River being in love. River stopped spinning and gazed at Rosalie tenderly. Then, he kissed the red lips he had desired for a long time.They had known each other for years and understood one another well. Ever since they realized their feelings, the speed at which their relationship developed was unbelievably quick.River had successfully proposed to her within two months.After the proposal, River took Rosalie to have dinner. They also went shopping, w
Rosalie was unaware because her office was on a higher floor.River instructed the employees not to inform Rosalie anything beforehand. He wanted to surprise her.Soon, an hour passed.Half-past five was the time to clock out.When the employees stepped out, they saw the sea of flowers at the company entrance and River looking handsome in a suit with a bouquet in his hand.Was he going to propose to Ms. Lafayette?They all wanted to see how things would unfold. Those who were not in a rush to return home lingered at the company, waiting for Rosalie to come out. The headquarters of Summit Group housed a large number of employees. Soon, the entrance was filled with people wanting to witness River’s proposal.Rosalie had arrived downstairs with a few clients.She had been engaged in a discussion with them the entire evening. Since they finally came to an agreement and signed a contract, her time was not wasted.She had a weird feeling before she walked out of the company.Wh
“Hey, Dr. Levitt, why are you going back on your words? Didn’t we come to an agreement just now?”That store owner never thought Kent would regret his decision as soon as he informed the landlord to come over to sign a new contract. He scolded Kent furiously. He felt Kent was making a fool of him.Kent said apologetically, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I was too impulsive just now.“This street is lively and crowded. I believe you’ll be able to rent it out soon.“I shall take my leave.”Kent left in a hurry.Alex thought, ‘What a coward.’He reported to Serenity that the deal was unsuccessful. Serenity did not care. There was always the next tenant. She never had to worry about renting out stores on that street.Sometimes, stores on other streets would require a long time to find a new tenant once a lease ends.Serenity told Alex to keep the two copies of the contract so that he could help her again when a new tenant was found.Alex returned to the Joneses’ family clinic.S
Serenity did not want to go over for such a small matter. She was meeting a client elsewhere, and it would be inappropriate to get a butler to sign the contract in her stead. Therefore, she had no choice but to seek Alex’s help. Rowan mentioned that Alex had bought a house at Westbrooke Gardens.Her instincts told her that Alex was definitely near Westbrooke Street. “Okay. That’s all. I’m busy, so I have to hang up now.”“Go on with your work. I’ll transfer you the deposit after everything’s settled.”“It’s okay. I’ll just make a note. You can spend that money. Treat it as an allowance from me to get yourself proper nutrients.”Alex said, “I have lots of supplements at home, Serenity. I don’t lack nutrients.”“Don’t you need to renovate your new house? You’ll have to spend a lot of money in the future. There’s no need to transfer the measly deposit back and forth.”Since Serenity said so, Alex stopped arguing with her. As she said, it was only a few thousand dollars. There
That was because all contracts bore the name of one company. It meant every tenant had signed a contract with the same company. They heard the landlord was wealthy and had bought all the stores on a few streets to rent out.With how prosperous Wiltspoon was, a street was already worth a massive amount of money, let alone a few.The rich were truly becoming richer.Kent asked how much it would cost to transfer the store to his name and looked around the store. He felt the size was enough for his clinic and started discussing the price with the owner. He wanted to reduce the cost.Transferring the lease when the contract had not ended meant its expiry date would remain the same. After the discussion, they would have to inform the landlord to sign a new contract. Meanwhile, Alex was unaware of what was happening. He did not even know his love rival had set his sights on him. He and Sheila brought Mike to view his place. He described his renovation plans and said he would pur
