The moment the elevator hit the top floor and its door opened, Rome walked into the corridor along with Mr. Orlando and K. Then he faced his father and said, “You know what to do, right?” “Yeah. But can you handle this end?” Mr. Ford asked with worry in his expression. “Father, I…” “Rome, inside that conference hall, are the top beasts in the business industry, and if you can't tame them, you wouldn't earn their submission.”  “Have a little faith in me. I'm your son after all.” As his expression relaxed, Mr. Ford rested his palm on Rome’s cheek, patted it, and said, “You have my full trust, son. I'm proud of you.” Afterward, he drew his hand to his side and the bodyguard pressed button one. Then the elevator door closed. “Let's go,” Rome mumbled, glancing at Mr. Orlando. The conference room was quiet as everyone anxiously waited, expecting Mr. Ford to walk into the room at any minute.  But when

When Catherine got home by seven o'clock, she walked into the living room and froze as she stared at the faces of everyone in the room. Then her gaze rested on Rome, sitting alone on one of the couches, and when their eyes met, he faintly smiled at her. Without any hesitation, she walked politely to the chair and sat down beside him. “What is this about? Did you do something wrong?” Catherine whispered with worry in her eyes. “This is not about me. I have been at the construction site all day and when I got home, everyone was seated here, so I did the same.” Rome mumbled, resting his palm over the back of her hand. “Oh. Then why are we having a meeting?” “I'm afraid that if I asked, I might get you and me in trouble. So I have kept my silence since I arrived.” “Smart.” Both of them shared a brief smile before focusing on the others. Finally, after waiting for a while, Chloe, Charles, Jeff, and Richard entered th

It suddenly became quiet in the car as Rome glanced at Catherine, then at his phone. For a moment, she waited patiently on him before asking, “Did you hear me?” “Umm, hold that thought for a second. I got to reply to this text quickly. It's from my dad.” Rome mumbled, gazing at the browser on his phone. Then he hastily typed in the search box, “The nearest construction site,” and clicked the search icon. After gazing at the screen for a while, he stared back at Catherine and asked, “What were you saying?” “I was asking about the location of your job site,” Catherine mumbled, keeping her eyes fixed on the road. “It's on the Bell Route.”  “Oh, okay.” When a few minutes had gone by, Catherine sighed heavily and said, “I'm such a terrible wife.” “Why would you say that?” Rome gently asked, fixing his eyes on her. “Well, what kind of wife doesn't know her husband's workplace?” “Well, I didn't tel

The daylight faded naturally, and after having a ten-course meal made by the famous chef, ‘Ramsey’ from a prestigious five-star restaurant, Rome got on a bus and stopped at the bus stop in front of DreamTeam company by six o'clock.When he got to Catherine’s office, she took one look at him, smiled, and said, “You are here.”Then she grabbed her bag, walked over to Rome, and held onto his arm.“Shall we?” Catherine mumbled, lifting her head to meet his gaze.“We shall,” Rome replied with his eyes focused on hers.Then they shared a brief laugh before heading out of her office.A moment later, they were seated in Catherine's vehicle, and after putting the car in gear, she gazed at Rome and asked, “Should we stop at a restaurant and grab a bite?”“But then you would be full when you get home, and Madam Rosey will scold you if you refuse dinner with the family.&rdquo

Without even realizing it, the morning had become noon, and Rome was still stuck on trimming the brushes to perfection. The afternoon sun was hot, and his body was drained with his sweat. But he kept going, and every now and then he would gaze at Catherine, standing a few steps away from him with a water bottle and towel in her hand. “I can't believe she is actually in that blazing heat with him.” Richard said, taking a sip of his tropical juice. Gazing away from the umbrella covering her, Chloe pulled down her shade off her face, stared at the pool before glaring at Rome and Catherine a few distances away from the pool yard. Then she rolled her eyes and said, “That right there is the definition of
