My Dreamy Old Husband

However, all they got in return was a long period of silence. The two ladies lowered their heads as they heard the sound of high heels walking toward them, and they held their breaths with their heads hung low as the real Lucile stood right in front of them. Amidst the pin-drop silence, they could hear the sound of Lucile sipping on her coffee before placing her cup down onto its saucer. “Why did you stop talking?” she finally asked.

To their surprise, she didn’t speak in English… Instead, she spoke in pure Cethosian and even sounded like a native speaker. Both Abbie and the fake Lucile lifted their heads up at the same time to see a face that they hadn’t been expecting. They both gasped in surprise.

…

After dealing with Abbie and the fake Lucile, Sophia stepped out of the café and got into the car before she took her Dragon Eye 7 out to make a call. “Hey, Stan. How are things going at your end?”

That cracked Sophia up. “Alright, alright; you’re nearing your thirties! Can you stop acting so childishly?!” she sneered in a joking manner.

“We’re in the online gaming industry, so it’s important that we possess the hearts of a high-schooler! Oh, by the way, how are things going at your end?” Stanley asked.

“I’ve done everything I’m supposed to do. The decision hasn’t been made, but even if it has, I’m not about to give up just yet. I heard some news about the agency’s agreement. Apparently, the Michel Group has the right to end the agreement if the selected agency fails to hit their sales target.” Their conversation surrounded the topic of becoming the chosen agency—it was too amazing of an opportunity to give up on. Furthermore, it was a huge stepping stone in Sophia’s journey to get involved with the Michel Group, so they had to succeed!

While she was at it, she also tried her best to defeat any of the opponents that came in her way. However, Stanley didn’t show any progress in his work, and Sophia found herself mentally drained from all the scheming. Fortunately, the trap that she had set up went just as she

of her team once they got in. “Sarah, you’ll handle Dana. Sean and Stanley, I want you guys to hold the Edwards back and distract them. We can ignore the Mitchells as they’re about to wreck themselves. I’ll focus on dealing with Alice.” Everyone gradually approached their own targets once they

was Dana, the daughter of an elder in the Winston Family. The elder was the one who was in charge of the elders’ council, and he often went against Harry’s opinions. The elder also held a lot of power in the Winston Group’s Board of Directors, and he often expressed his dissatisfaction toward Harry. However, ever since Harry forged his own path to success at the young age of 19, his position remained secure for the past 20 years. The elder hoped for some issue to surface, but there hadn’t been a chance for him to create any trouble in the past 20 years. Now, his daughter, Dana, seemed to share the same goals as his. Sarah was determined not to let Dana become the chosen agent. If Dana were to be chosen, she wouldn’t just enjoy all the countless benefits of the agreement; she’d also form a partnership with the Michel Group. In that case, the elder would gain more power

With his high scores, he enrolled himself into Bayside University. He thought he was invincible back then, but he soon realized that none of his classmates even bothered to glance at him. Furthermore, he even got physically punished by his instructor just three days after he joined the military training program.
