“How could that happen?” Terrence slumped onto the ground as he grew despondent. He did not
expect Roderick Brooks, his boss, to be the subject of his wrath yesterday. Not only was he fired, but
he also dragged his uncle down with him as they got kicked out of thepany.
“You brat! What are you standing there for? Come with me to apologize to Mr. Brooks now! The man
grabbed Terrence by the hair and violently dragged him out. The whole time, a cowering Terrence didn’t
utter even a single word of protest.
“What?” Julie’s jaw dropped to the ground at the sight of it. It was hard to fathom how Terrence had
fallen from a ce of authority and honor to one of shame.
“He totally deserved that! It was his fault for acting like a thug!” Cole scoffed and disappeared into his
office.
“Your dear Terrence can’t even save himself,” Dustin remarked with amusement.
“It’s all because of you and your stupid predictions! He wouldn’t have been fired if it weren’t for you!”
Julie started to lose it.
“How do you even pin that on me? You’re unbelievable.” Dustin shook his head, thinking that Terrence
deserved everything that had happened. One could see iting because of Terrence’s impudence,
which was fueled by his faith in his uncle’s power and backing.
“That’s enough. Can both of you shut up for a moment? Our top priority is to figure out a solution to that
challenge!” Dahlia reminded them of the matter at hand.
“Dahlia, I think we have no choice but to get back and brainstorm. Terrence is fired, and Mr. Suzman
isn’t going to budge.” Sighing. Julie decided that this was her unlucky day, suffering one loss after
another.
“What’s the point of heading back when we’ve already made our way here? Isn’t it just a business
deal? Leave it to me,” Dustin remarked.
“You?” Julie scanned him from head to toe with a disdainful look. “Who do you think you are? Do you
think you could do whatever Terrence failed to do? Stop kidding me!”
“He failed to help, but that doesn’t mean I’ll fail too.” Dustin smiled at her. “I’m acquainted with Roderick
Brooks. This shouldn’t be too difficult.”
“You? How could you be a friend of Roderick Brooks? You’re a fool.” Julie did not believe any words
that came from him. Roderick Brooks was the top business magnate in Millsburg. A man of his wealth
and power was godlike and out of reach for the average citizen.
“You don’t believe me? I’ll call him up.” Instead of exining further, Dustin immediately went into
action.
“Hello? Mr. Brooks; I have a favor to ask of you. A friend of mine wanted to coborate with Brooks
Corporation. I hope you’ll consider her proposal.”
“Mr. Rhys, don’t mention It! A business deal is just a small matter! I can even hand thepany over to
you if that makes you happy. Where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up.” Roderick sounded very
friendly.
“It’s alright. I’m at the Sales Department of Brooks Corporation. Just send a word and get Mr. Suzman
to
assist me.” Dustin replied,
“No problem! On it!”
“Thanks.” After exchanging some formalities, Dustin hung up and turned around. “It’s done. We can
sign the business contract soon.”
“That’s some good acting. Do you really think that someone will agree on a 500 million dor megadeal
over a phone call? Stop daydreaming!” Julie smirked.
“Oh well. Let’s head home now. We’ll talk about the business deal tomorrow.” Dahlia gave Julle a soft
shake of the head. They were at the center of attention at that moment, and with each second they
stayed there, they’d only humiliate themselves more. She did not take Dustin’s words seriously,
thinking that he was only putting on the act for his ego.

“What’s the rush? We’ll get it done if we wait for a little while.” Dustin reassured them.
“Are you telling me to wait here?” Julie snickered. “Even if you kneel here for a day, you will not get the
attention of Mr. Suzman.”
