Zach left, the Young residence’s living room lay in disarray, with expensive items damaged.
Kevin, trailing behind Zech, had not seen him lose his cool like this in years. Kevin reflected on the old days, realizing that if it had been back then, Yvonne would have faced dire consequences.
The damage inflicted by the bodyguards was a mere trifle for the Young family, yet it sent a clear warning
Kevin thought about Yvonne’s miraculous survival from the plane crash and wondered why she was the only one.
“Won’t this provoke the Young family into slandering Jardin Corporation?” Kevin asked Zach.
Zach, flicking his cigarette away, replied with a dismissive air, “Since when have I feared the Young family? We’re heading to the office.”
Kevin, understanding Zach’s cue, responded, “Yes, Mr. Jardin.”
Meanwhile, at Jardin Corporation, Cecilia, frustrated, ended a call. Then, Blake approached with coffee and said, “Ms. Samford, your coffee. Is there anything else?”
Blake, despite her pending resignation, diligently assisted Cecilia.
“Why haven’t I received Mr. Jardin’s schedule yet?” Cecilia inquired sharply.
Blake explained, “Only Mr. Harrison has access to Mr. Jardin’s schedule. I messaged him yesterday, but no reply. I’ve tried calling, but no luck. Mr. Jardin hasn’t been in the office much lately, often working from home.”
Cecilia mulled over that and then instructed, “Carry on with your tasks. And later, come with me to Zach’s villa. I need his signature.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Blake acknowledged and left, deciding to inform Madelyn about Cecilia’s planned visit.
In the studio, preparing to paint, Madelyn checked her phone and saw a message from Blake, [Madelyn, Cecilia is coming to see Mr. Jardin.]
‘Cecilia is coming? Madelyn thought to herself.
Madelyn replied, [Got it, thanks.]
Blake replied, No problem.]
Margaret entered with a bowl of expensive wagyu beef soup for Madelyn, muttering, “Mr. Jardin spares
stop what you’re doing and drink this. It’s something special today,” Margaret urged.
Madelyn looked at the soup’s rich color, pretty but unappetizing. She instructed Margaret, “If someone
visits later, let the bodyguards handle it. Don’t let anyone in, regardless of who it is. If asked, say Zach
Isn’t here.
Margaret nodded and said, “Yes, Ms. Jent.”
Ms. Jent is becoming more like the mistress of the house now. I wonder who’s coming? A guest maybe?
If it’s someone Ms. Jent doesn’t welcome, that person must be no good.” Margaret thought to herself.
Madelyn tasted the soup. It was refreshing and not greasy. She commented, “Not bad.”
After an hour of sketching. Madelyn noticed a flashy red Lamborghini outside. Cecilia, dressed in a stylish business outfit, was halted by Zach’s bodyguards at the gate.
Madelyn listened to the exchange from the third floor.
The bodyguard said, “Sorry, ma’am, but without prior instruction from Mr. or Mrs. Jardin, no outsiders are.
allowed.”
Cecilia took off her sunglasses and said, “Don’t you know who I am? Do I need permission to enter?”
The bodyguard remained firm, “Sorry, no matter who you are, I can’t let you in without permission from
Mr. or Mrs. Jardin,”
Cecilia, unaccustomed to being denied entry, became enraged. She shouted, “Open your damn eyes! I’m
the Vice President of Jardin Corporation. I come and go as I please. How dare you try to stop me? Move
aside!”
Cecilia attempted to force her way in, only to be pushed back.
The bodyguard warned, “If you keep causing trouble, we’ll call the police.”
Cecilia, livid, raised her hand to slap the defiant bodyguard and threatened, “You’ll regret this! There will be consequences for stopping me.
Blake, aware of Cecilia’s temper/wisely kept her distance, and discreetly informed Kevin of the situation.
At the office, Kevin saw his phone flooded with messages, including several from Blake. After a brief
glance decided to block her number.–
