Speechlessness was Joey's only reaction.She shoved Zachary away and continued coldly, "You always break your promises, Zachary. I'm sick of you. Can you leave me alone?"Zachary paid her protest no mind. Right when he wanted to chase after her, Lawrence and Cyrus came over. The former gave him a look that suggested going after Joey wasn't a good idea.Seeing that the men did not follow her, Joey was relieved.However, she quickly found herself in another predicament. A drunk man got in her way before she could reach her seat. The man was inebriated and looked at her inappropriately.Disgusted, she frowned and wanted to walk away. But the drunk man grabbed her by her wrist and said, "What are you doing here, hottie? Want to drink with us?""Let go of me, or I'll call the police!" Joey swatted the man's hand away. The force almost threw the man off balance, and he became visibly angered."Bitch, what is a hooker like you doing here in a bar if not trying to find a client? Get off

Joey listened in silence and changed into the slippers.Next to her, Kenneth whispered, "Stay out of this. Let Hanson handle it."Joey grunted affirmatively and walked inside with him.Selena changed into the slippers too and pouted. "Is your mom always this scary?"Emily heaved and turned to Selena. "What if I am? Do you think you can save Emmen by marrying my son? In your dreams, missy."As soon as she finished her sentence, Selena wrapped her arms around Hanson's neck."Your mom doesn't like me. What did I do? We should keep work and our personal lives separate, right? Is she trying to assert dominance here?"Joey observed Yvonne's reaction in secret. She was glad to see that her face was as sour as vinegar.Hanson patted Selena's back and said, "It's okay. Why don't I bring you to my study? It has computers and whatnot. You and Joey can have fun there.""Joey and Kenneth can visit your study. I want to visit your bedroom." Selena's goal was to annoy Emily and Yvonne, so sh

"Besides, Selena is a successful entrepreneur. She runs Emmen and oversees its purchases and contracts. If she isn't good enough, who else is?" Hanson explained patiently to his mother."I don't care. You can't date her!" Emily squealed once again.Hanson sighed. "I'm really disappointed that you refuse to let go of your prejudice."Then, he left the wide-eyed Emily alone and went upstairs.Moments later, Emily went looking for Yvonne again, clasping her necklace. "He is disappointed? I am the biggest victim here. He knows I hate Emmen, yet he is dating Selena. He wants to tear this family apart, I swear."Yvonne patted her chest and said, "Selena and Hanson have barely just met. Hanson is into her, but she might not be. In fact, it feels like she is dating Hanson for another reason."Emily already knew that, of course. But Hanson was so love-struck that it was impossible to tell him otherwise."When is Dad coming back?" asked Yvonne suddenly."His work abroad won't end this so

"Work with me." Zachary revealed the purpose of why he came there."Anyone can buy Emmen's shares but you," declined Joey right away."I know you turned me down because of my grandmother. I can assure you that within a month, she will no longer have any right to meddle in my affairs," said Zachary confidently."You say that all the time but you never deliver, Zachary. Can you walk the talk for once?" growled Joey impatiently.In front, Henry brought up the soundproof panel in silence.Zachary knew Joey was annoyed. He kept quiet for a while before continuing, "I am often a man of my word in many settings. But for some reason, it doesn't work when it's you.""And you sound so proud of it," condemned Joey."Think about my offer. I don't need Emmen's shares. For the financial details, you can turn to Lawrence or Cyrus." Zachary leaned back lazily."No need." Joey would rather take out a bank loan than accept his help.However, what he said today did enlighten her. Emmen could not

After Melvin hung up, he called out to Zachary grouchily, "Hurry up. She's waiting for her clothes."Zachary gave the beige dress to the staff member. "This one, too."Once they were done with their shopping, Melvin couldn't help but complain, "Your taste is so bad. Joey is a designer. She's not going to like what you bought her.""Why didn't you tell me just now?" Zachary glanced at him.Melvin scoffed. "Would it have changed anything? You didn't like anything I picked. You're just jealous."Zachary ignored him and shoved the bag of dresses in his arms. "Get these to her. Your car is safe for now.""What do you mean for now? Hey!" Melvin stomped his feet.Zachary ignored him and blended into the crowd. Melvin cursed at him for a while then immediately drove back to bring Joey her clothes.…Joey was appalled when she saw the dresses. They were cliché—puffy sleeves, V-neck, and a cinch made of creases.A lot of feminine brands were making this kind of dress. They were average
