“Milani’s family, of course.” Alessandra explained, “Her

mother, Melody, had come to me directly to invite me

to a celebratory dinner, as her daughter had been

promoted. She was so enthusiastic about the prospect

that I could not refuse, especially since I knew that

Melody would call me petty if I did not accept the

invitation.”

Emmanuel rolled his eyes.

Mom is naive. It is obvious that Milani’s family is up to

no good. Nevertheless, I had gone on a blind date with

Milani before and worked alongside her on a project.

Now that the project is complete, it would be

inappropriate for me to refuse to attend a party she’s

holding to celebrate. Mom has agreed to be there,

anyway. I don’t want to go against her wishes.

At that moment, Beatrix and Lexi were seized by a

sense of panic in the office of Terence Group.

To their horror, they discovered a mistake in the

strategic warehouse’s logo!

One of the details was supposed to have four

horizontal lines, but only three lines were present.

This discrepancy did not abide by the initial design,

making it an unacceptable error.

“How could Cloud Construction make such a stupid

mistake?” Beatrix demanded angrily.

When Beatrix began her new job, Mackenzie tasked her

with a very important project. She couldn’t believe that

her efforts were foiled by an unforeseen error.

“What is wrong with Cloud Construction? Ms. Quillen

will definitely fly into a rage if she discovers the

mistake!” Lexi was troubled, too.

Cloud Construction is a highly respected and

successful business with a long–standing reputation

for producing quality work. Why would they make such

a crucial mistake?

This mistake would have minimal impact on Terence

Group’s long–term action plan as the logo had little

functionality. However, it would have a significant

effect on their reputation.

The opening ceremony of the strategic warehouse

was scheduled for the second day of the following

month. However, if there was an error in the logo, it

could lead to public humiliation as well as give their

competitors an opportunity to criticize them.

“I know Mackenzie well. If she discovers the logo is

incorrect, she’ll definitely yell at me. What should we

do?” Beatrix was about to lose her mind.

Despite their close bond, she couldn’t shake her fear of

Mackenzie.

Everyone in Terence Group feared and admired

Mackenzie.

“Ms. Beatrix, this has nothing to do with you. I’ll go find

Emmanuel and solve the problem as soon as

possible,” Lexi comforted her.

Ms. Beatrix might be my superior, but she doesn’t have

experience in handling such matters. I’ll have to take

the matter into my own hands.

“Thanks, Lexi!” Beatrix sighed.

She wanted nothing more than to punish the person

who made the mistake at Cloud Construction, but they

still had no idea who it was.

Meanwhile, Milani was blissfully unaware that she had

made a serious blunder. She was ecstatic to have

received Walter’s verbal promise.

She wanted everyone to be aware of the fantastic

news that she was to receive a substantial bonus of

three hundred thousand and her promotion to a senior

executive position in Cloud Construction with a yearly

salary of three hundred thousand.

The Zimmerman family felt proud of her achievements,

too. In Yeringham, the average annual salary was

seventy thousand, so Milani’s success was an

impressive feat.

At seven sharp, Emmanuel, Alessandra, and Roselynn

arrived at the restaurant to attend the dinner.

They were well–dressed to show their respect for the

occasion.

At the door of the VIP room, they discovered that the

Zimmerman family had invited over thirty guests to

join the celebration.

People started talking when Emmanuel’s family of

three showed up.

They mostly talked about him being Milani’s blind date

and that he earned eighty thousand annually.

After the blind date fell through, his entire family made

the trip to Milani’s family’s home in an attempt to ask

for her hand in marriage but was unfortunately

rejected.

Emmanuel’s brows knitted when he heard them gossip

about him. It looks like Milani has set up a trap for me

tonight.

Indeed, Milani led Emmanuel’s family to a table in the

corner adjacent to the restroom.
