LOGINIf it weren’t for the fact that her daughter already had a child, she would have long wanted her daughter to divorce this coward.
Seeing that he couldn’t avoid Natalie, Sean said, “I came here to borrow money.”
“Sean… Sean, do you even look at what kind of place this is? The red carpet at the entrance is worth more than your life. How could you possibly borrow money from here? You really have no self-awareness!” Natalie snorted coldly.
Natalie was the deputy manager of Arizona Company. Over the past few days, she had been discussing a cooperation project with Rhys Company. After leaving the hospital, she came straight here.
However, she couldn’t enter Martaguna Company, which made her extremely irritated. Naturally, her mood was terrible. Coincidentally, she saw Sean and vented all her frustration on him.
“Trash! My sister has to work and take care of Andin, and you come here to fool around under the excuse of borrowing money. Are you even a man?” Her sister-in-law, Jennie, looked at Sean with anger.
Only then did Sean notice that Jennie was standing behind Natalie. And behind Natalie stood a young man. This young man was named Fikri, Jennie’s college friend.
“Jennie, is this the useless brother-in-law you mentioned? Your sister’s eyesight is really bad. This guy is no different from a farmer at all,” Fikri said as he evaluated Sean with a disdainful gaze.
He had once been fortunate enough to chat with the director of Martaguna Company at an event. Later, he heard that Natalie was negotiating a major cooperation deal.
Therefore, he took it upon himself to bring Natalie to meet the director of Martaguna Company, hoping to help Natalie Margaretha secure this cooperation. However, the director did not give him any face, which made him feel humiliated.
Now that he saw Jennie and her mother belittling Sean, he was also ready to add a few more words to vent his anger.
“Yes, I really don’t know what my sister saw in him to marry someone so useless. The most important thing is that this person is completely irresponsible,” Jennie sneered.
“A man may not have money for a while, but at the very least, he should have a sense of responsibility,” Fikri said with a smile.
Sean looked at the three of them, said nothing, and then turned around and walked into Martaguna Company.
“What are you doing coming here? Hurry back and take care of Andin!” Seeing Sean walk inside, Natalie frowned and scolded him.
“I’m going to look for Roby to discuss something,” Sean said.
“What? You want to look for that rich man Roby? Are you trying to get kicked out like a dog?” Natalie instantly became irritated and reached out to stop Sean.
Sean was just a lowly security guard. If he got thrown out, it would greatly embarrass his mother-in-law.
“Let go, Mom. I really have something important to discuss with Roby!” Sean said, frowning as Natalie grabbed his arm.
“Do you want to become a joke in there? Roby is the richest person in Bandung City. You’re just a lowly security guard, are you even qualified to meet him?” Jennie mocked.
“You shouldn’t say that. Maybe your brother-in-law feels that they share the same surname and were family five hundred years ago! Hahaha…” Fikri said sarcastically.
Sean felt slightly annoyed. “Have they all gone crazy together today?”
But he couldn’t afford to get angry at Natalie Margaretha. He could only take out his phone and call Roby, asking him to come down and meet him.
At that moment, a woman with a perfect figure, dressed in a formal suit, walked over. Seeing the beautiful woman arrive, Natalie released her grip on Sean. Suspicion appeared on her face.
“She’s Mr. Roby’s personal secretary,” Jennie said.
“Maybe they’ve changed their attitude and came to call us back. Aunt Natalie, congratulations, you’re about to secure this cooperation,” Fikri said respectfully.
“Are they really coming to look for us to discuss it again?” Natalie was somewhat doubtful, but a hint of delight appeared on her face.
“Of course! We’re the only ones here. Besides, we already spoke with them. They must be coming to find us,” Fikri said confidently, nodding.
“Earlier, we couldn’t talk with CEO Ardy, but now Mr. Roby’s personal secretary has come looking for us. It must be Mr. Roby who sent her. Mom, it looks like this cooperation will succeed!” Jennie said excitedly.
If the cooperation succeeded, her mother would share a large commission with her. Thinking it over, Natalie also felt that it made sense. Mr. Roby’s personal secretary must be coming for them, it was impossible that she came for Sean.
With that thought, Natalie smiled and went to greet the woman. “Good afternoon, you came…”
Before Natalie could finish speaking, her smile froze stiff on her face. She could only watch as the beautiful secretary ignored her completely and walked straight past her, heading directly toward Sean.
“All right then. I’ll definitely consider Young Master Sean’s suggestion,” Irwan replied while nodding.Although he said that aloud, he was actually placed in a difficult position.Deep inside, he truly wanted to include Erwin’s name on the list for the Champion Company project.“I see. Then thank you for your time, Mr. Irwan. Enjoy your dinner,” Sean said with a nod before walking back toward his car.Meanwhile, after being humiliated by Sean and Irfan earlier, Erwin no longer had the mood to continue the reunion.He apologized briefly to everyone before announcing his departure.The others also no longer felt interested in eating or drinking.Inwardly, many of them were irritated with Sean and Irfan for ruining the atmosphere of the gathering.Soon after, the reunion gradually dispersed.However, Sean’s conversation with Irwan had already been witnessed by the people who had just walked out of the restaurant inside the hotel.Watching Sean chat with Irwan so naturally — almost like
The middle-aged man was none other than Erwin’s superior, Irwan.“Young Master Sean, so you’re having dinner here too?” Irwan greeted Sean warmly.A few days ago, Sean had only invited him to dinner, yet even until now, Irwan still found it hard to believe.This young man, who looked completely ordinary on the surface, was actually the owner of Champion Company.All of Irwan’s superiors treated Sean with exceptional respect, and every department within the company had been instructed to cooperate fully with Champion Company.Treatment on that level was something Irwan had never witnessed before during all his years working there.Of course, everyone understood the reason behind it.After all, the investment poured into Champion Company alone had already surpassed the investment scale of Wijaya Company.The annual tax contribution from Wijaya Company alone exceeded ten trillion rupiah and had allowed them to dominate Bandung’s market for years.And once Champion Company officially bega
Tonight, Erwin had invited Sean and Mega to attend this reunion.Of course, he never had any good intentions toward them from the start.But no one understood why Sean continued allowing Erwin to act however he pleased.“Everyone, please listen for a moment. There’s actually someone shameless here. At a reunion personally hosted by Mr. Erwin, he still dares to say that Mr. Erwin isn’t even worthy of a toast from him,” Yasmin said loudly while pointing directly at Sean, deliberately making sure everyone could hear her.“Hey Sean, since when did you become this embarrassing? Is your monthly income already hundreds of millions or even billions? Why don’t you let your old friends witness your success too?”“Exactly. We’re all old classmates here. Let everyone drink with you.”The mocking voices immediately continued one after another.“If you’re jealous of Mr. Erwin’s success, then just admit it. Why keep pretending to be impressive? Is there anything about the two of you that we don’t al
A mocking look flashed across Yasmin’s eyes, while Erwin instead appeared slightly confused.Had he really been overthinking things all along?Was Sean truly nothing more than someone who happened to know the owner of La Castillo?Davindra shook his head inwardly.Considering his own status, sitting together with someone poor like Sean truly felt like a blow to his dignity.He slowly stood up from his seat, glanced around at everyone, then said loudly, “Everyone, before we start drinking, I think it would be better if we ask Mr. Erwin to give a toast first.”The crowd immediately agreed with Davindra’s suggestion and began urging Erwin to say a few words.“All right then, I’ll say a few words,” Erwin replied without refusing.He rose from his seat while lifting his wine glass.Whether intentional or not, his gaze briefly swept toward Sean, and a trace of pride appeared in his eyes.Yesterday, he had still harbored suspicions regarding Sean’s status.But now, he felt Sean was exactly w
Irfan hesitated for a moment, but quickly brushed that hesitation aside and followed Sean toward the table where Erwin was sitting.There were no empty seats left at the other tables, and it was impossible for them to eat while standing.The moment the others saw the two “poor men” daring to walk toward the main table, displeasure immediately appeared on their faces.Mocking smiles spread across the room.There were still two empty seats left at Erwin’s table, and Sean along with Irfan calmly took them.The people already seated there looked at them strangely.Although there were no official seating arrangements and no rules stating who should sit where, everyone present was already an adult.As long as someone possessed social awareness and enough experience mingling in society, they naturally understood where they should sit during gatherings like this.If you wanted to sit at the main table, then you needed to have status, capability, or influence.Otherwise, in other people’s eyes
The sky had grown darker, and more former classmates gradually arrived.Not long after, the door to the room opened once again.Everyone immediately saw Erwin and Yasmin entering side by side, and at that moment, nearly every gaze inside the room shifted toward Erwin.Even though Yasmin had once been one of the beauties in their class, everyone’s attention was still fixed on Erwin.Because tonight, Erwin was the main figure of the reunion.Erwin came from a very influential family background, and at such a young age, he had already become a department head. Moreover, he was in charge of one of the most important departments within the company.On top of that, his uncle was also a vice director, making his future look even brighter and more promising.“Hello, Chief Erwin!”“Mr. Erwin, this is my business card!”“Come on, Mr. Erwin, it’s been so long since we last met. Tonight we’re not leaving until we’re drunk!”Erwin’s arrival instantly pushed the atmosphere of the reunion to another
The shop owner’s expression shifted slightly. He dared to act this way toward Sean because he was confident Sean was just an ordinary man. But Angga was different. He was a renowned antique collector, with vast connections behind him. Even though the shop owner had some influence himself, he still
“Alright, I’ll let them leave now,” the shop owner sneered as he waved his hand at several people. He wasn’t afraid that Sean would run away as well.“You should just sell the Rolex watch to Mr. Angga, and we can leave together. Wouldn’t that be better?” Mega said in confusion. She felt that Sean m
“Young man, if you had sold that watch to me earlier, things wouldn’t have escalated this far. Now, even if you sell it to me, I won’t buy it anymore. I respect Jefri, because you truly don’t know how to be grateful,” Angga shook his head and walked to the side to sit down. He wanted to see how Sea
“Mom, this is the outfit Dad bought for me yesterday. Is it pretty?” Andin stood in front of Mega, showing off like a child proudly displaying herself.Yesterday, Sean had taken her out to play all day. They were exhausted, so once they got home, she fell asleep right away.“It’s beautiful. My litt
