Semua Bab I Married a Beautiful Boss After the Breakup: Bab 101 - Bab 110

Eric was taken aback. 'Uncle Richard lied to me?' Before heading to the village hall from Richard's house, Eric had thanked him sincerely.Meanwhile, Sylvia frowned, saying, "There's a 4-dollar difference per kilogram, adding up to over 3,000 dollars for more than 500 kilograms! And that's only for the pigs. We haven't even talked about the cow and horse!""You sold the cow and horse as well?" Hank asked, "How much did you get for them?""1,200 dollars for the cow and 800 dollars for the horse.""What?" Hank was shocked, "Eric, your uncle clearly swindled you. I've seen your cow and horse. That cow is large, and it has a calf. It could easily fetch at least 1,800 dollars. And where can you buy a horse for 800 dollars these days? Even a strong horse costs around 2,000 dollars. How can your uncle act so shamelessly? First, I'll make out a certificate for you, and then we'll confront him about this!""Or... maybe we should just let it go." Eric shrugged.Settling the matter with R

Hank received a call after resolving the matter between Richard and Eric.Once the call ended, he turned to Eric, saying, "I'm sorry to ask, but could you give me a ride back to the village hall? The survey team is arriving soon."Eric nodded immediately. He would have offered a ride even if Hank hadn't requested it.They passed Hank's house on their way, and Eric pulled over."Why are we stopping here? I need to get to the village hall," Hank inquired.Eric smiled and took out a carton of cigarettes from the trunk. He then said, "Mayor Jenkins, I didn't bring much when I returned, so I have this for you.""I appreciate it, but I can't accept it," Hank declined politely. "It's too kind. Helping you with your matter is part of my job as the mayor. I can't take this."Eric returned the carton to Hank and insisted, "Please, Mayor Jenkins, accept it. There's a difference between personal matters and work matters. When you visited my dad at the hospital, that was personal. It's separ

Upon realizing that their land was short of a unit, Delilah became upset and exclaimed, "The certificate clearly says 3.5 acres! How come you measured one-tenth less? If you shortchange us by a tenth here, think of the land lost in many households. That's a big loss!"Delilah's words led the crowd to protest, saying Miles's measuring tool was faulty.Miles felt helpless and explained, "Folks! We're using satellite tech to measure your plots. This gives accurate measures, and data is safe for confirmation. We can't manipulate the results."But the villagers didn't accept this as they thought the survey team was cheating them.Since they were doubtful, Miles had to show Richard how to use the tool and have him measure himself. It was simple: Richard just had to walk around the plot after pressing a button.Soon, Richard returned from his round. To his surprise, it gave the same result."How's this possible?" Richard was puzzled, scratching his head."What if we measure your other

"W-Who told you this?" Elly asked in surprise. Upon hearing that, Slyvia could tell it was the truth. "Your uncle told us about it," she said.Elly sighed. "After all these years of keeping it a secret, my brother had to find out like this. It's no wonder he reacted this way after learning he's not our parents' biological child."Slyvia nodded and asked, "Why didn't you tell Eric earlier? If you had informed him beforehand, today's incident might have been avoided."Elly shook her head. "Years ago, when our parents worked in Salt City, they found my brother abandoned by the roadside. He was nearly frozen to death. They brought him home out of kindness."Our mother suffered miscarriages, so they chose to raise Eric as their own. When my father returned to our hometown with Eric, he made sure the villagers kept this secret. They didn't want Eric to know the truth. I can't believe my uncle…""Your uncle is truly wicked," Slyvia said. "Not only did he disclose the truth to Eric, but

Sylvia said, "Eric, you used to work for others before, but things have changed. Now, you and your partner own a company."I know you and Andy have a good relationship, but remember, the most important rule in a partnership is to protect your partner's interests. Basically, it's about money. You'll realize this soon enough. For now, you shouldn't be the one giving away the money."Silently, Eric gazed at Sylvia. He hadn't thought as deeply about this as she had. Setting aside Williams Corp. and looking at Sonnex Corp.'s situation, the success of securing the project was mainly due to Eric.While Andy might not mind if Eric wanted to donate 20,000 dollars to his hometown for road repairs, their company operated as a partnership. Giving such a significant amount would definitely affect Andy's interests."Don't look at me like that," Sylvia said. "If you feel uneasy about it, we could each contribute 10,000 dollars. I'll lend the money for you, and you can give it back to me once you'
