The evening at the Barlow mansion was calm, but there was so much tension around the table as the family sat down for dinner.“Grandpa,” Catherine said, barely able to contain her excitement.“What is so important that you can't wait for dinner to be over? Can't you see that father is eating?” Dana, Chloe's mother said, glaring at Catherine.Gazing at Dana and her daughter, Rome faintly smiled when he saw the rage in their expression.It was clear to him that Mr. Jeffrey had turned Chloe down and given the contract back to his wife.“I just wanted to tell grandfather that Mr. Jeffrey came to my office today, and we signed the contract for the five million dollars projects,” Catherine mumbled, sighing softly.The fork fell from Mr. Barlow's hand and he gazed at his granddaughter, smiling with his eyes.“But how? He sounded so mad yesterday when he called me.” Mr. Barlow mumbled.&l

The taxi stopped at the old railway on lane street, and Rome got out of the car. Then he waited for the driver to drive off before he approached the black Land Rover Defender and got in. “Good morning, young master.” Mr. Orlando said, gazing at Rome from the front seat. “Morning,” Rome absentmindedly replied because his entire thought was on getting Catherine those accounts and figuring out a way to go about it. The driver drove off, and a few minutes later, they made a stop at “Entourage Men Wear,” and Mr. Orlando and Rome headed into the building. The clerk rushed over to them and slightly bowed. Then he raised his head and said, “Your father had already made a call to us. Your outfit is in the VIP room. Please follow me, sir.” “This is Jerry. He has been responsible for master wearing for a long time, including yours, when you were little.” Mr. Orlando said, staring at Rome. “I can remember.” He replied, smiling at Jerry. Th

The smile on Catherine's face kept widening as she and Mr. Ford engaged in further discussions while Rome stood by, maintaining his silence.“What is going on here?” Mr. Barlow calmly asked with a hint of anger in his tone when he met up with Catherine and Rome. The instant her gaze met with her grandfather's angry eyes, Catherine's self-confidence dropped back to zero and panic was the only thing she felt.Inside, Rome was enrage, seeing traces of fear in his wife's expression, yet he kept a calm face.The rest of the Barlow family met up with Mr. Barlow, and when Chloe's and Catherine's eyes met, she threw her cousin a hard look then slyly smiled.None of them said a word as they waited eagerly for Madam Rosey and Mr. Barlow to lash out and humiliate the couple.But as Mr. Barlow moved his lips to utter a word, his eyes rested on Mr. Ford cold stare,  and his entire expression softened. Then he focused his attention

 “What's going on?” Madam Rosey mumbled, gazing in Carmen and Rome's direction.Then she stared at her husband, and he seemed concerned as he watched his granddaughter, chatting happily with four of the biggest chairmen in the business circle.“What do you think they are talking about?” Elijah asked with a frown.“We wouldn't know until we meet them. Let's go.” Mr. Barlow said, sitting his wine glass on the table.Excitement was the only emotion Catherine felt as she gazed at the chairmen's lively faces, knowing that her potential was getting the spotlight it's deserved.Over the past years, she had struggled so many times to showcase her talent, yet she kept messing up for unknown reasons. However, now that she stood in the midst of the top-notches in the business world, she was sure that her past mistakes weren't due to her fault.“Bill, Elon, Francis, Benjamin, what could my gran

“Good morning. What are you working on?” Rome mumbled as he stared at Catherine, concentrating on her laptop.For a moment, she focused on the screen. Then she gazed at him and said, “It took three weeks, but I'm finally finished with my final soft copy for the plans for the ‘Fine wine’ project, and I just send it to the team members.”A smile crept on Rome’s lips as he got out of bed and approached Catherine. Then he squatted in front of her and softly intoned, “You have been working so hard. I'm proud of you, wife.”“Really?” Catherine whispered, gazing into his eyes.For the past week, she had been doubting herself every step of the way, knowing how many people are expecting her to fail, and Rome knew it, even though he didn't talk about it with her.As he slowly ran his fingers through her hair, he nodded and said, “Yes. How about you take a day off, and we can go out for d
