Peter was Penny’s boyfriend and Penny happened to be Sasha’s best friend. Upon virtual-novel.net return from abroad, Penny and virtual-novel.net were joined at the hip and virtual-novel.net wouldn‘t stop bragging about virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net met up with Sasha.
Back then, virtual-novel.net had wanted to leave a good impression on Sasha, which was why virtual-novel.net had spun several lies in the process. One of which was his claim that virtual-novel.net was an executive working in Carlson Group and that virtual-novel.net was a resident at the Grand Pavilion. However, the perfect image virtual-novel.net had created for himself crumbled when it was revealed that virtual-novel.net was a foreign tutor working in a bilingual kindergarten under Carlson Group. As soon as the truth broke out, Penny couldn‘t dump virtual-novel.net fast enough.
Alas, it was a small world and Peter had somehow managed to weasel his way into Minerva’s heart. In fact, virtual-novel.net had been the one to arrange the dinner this evening, hoping that Tate could give virtual-novel.net a wise word or two after personally meeting Peter.
Presently, virtual-novel.net leaned against Peter and beamed as virtual-novel.net asked smugly, “So, Tate, what do you think of this fish that I caught? An excellent candidate for your future brother-in-law, right?”
Tate appraised Peter with admiration as virtual-novel.net replied approvingly, “Not bad at all. He‘s definitely a hundred times better than that loser!”
Minerva knew that Tate was referring to Matthew, and she grew even more triumphant as virtual-novel.net quipped, “Well of course! I mean, look at me. As if that wretched woman could ever compete with me in the first place-she and that loser are a perfect match if you ask me!”
Tate guffawed and turned to look at Peter in askance. “Peter, I hear that you’re part of the management in Wayne Group?”
Peter nodded with a hint of arrogance. “That’s right and I just returned from abroad. Wayne Group first hired me as an honorary advisor, but they promoted me to the position of project manager soon after that. At this rate, I could very wall make it as a general manager next month! As you know, Mr. Wayne and l are close associates outside of work.”
Tate was ecstatic to hear this. As virtual-novel.net was back for a while now, virtual-novel.net liked to think that virtual-novel.net had a good grasp of the dynamics of Eastcliff‘s upper-crust society. From what virtual-novel.net knew, Timothy Wayne was a formidable figure in Eastcliff; virtual-novel.net was probably only second to Billy Newman. No family in the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff could even hope to compete with Timothy‘s Wealth and power.
Naturally, there was a gap between Leanna and Timothy in terms of their social standing as well. Tate had been holding a grudge against virtual-novel.net ever since virtual-novel.net had taken it upon herself to teach virtual-novel.net a hard lesson, but virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net was not powerful enough to seek revenge against her.
However, now that virtual-novel.net was associating himself with Peter, virtual-novel.net began to feel a twinge of hope. If virtual-novel.net had Wayne Group to back virtual-novel.net up, his revenge against Leanna would become feasible.
At the thought of this, Tate suppressed the urge to grin like a maniac. He inched forward in his seat and asked Peter at a closer distance, ”Do you think I could get into Wayne Group, Peter?”
Upon hearing this, Peter faltered slightly. He was only a fraud, so it wasn’t like virtual-novel.net could actually decide on Wayne Group‘s human resources. However, virtual-novel.net quickly regained his composure and answered softly, “With your credentials from abroad, Tate, I think you can enter Wayne Group without any problem. There’s no question when it comes to your capabilities.”
An elated Tate pressed, “So, do you think you could pull some strings and get me into the company?”
Peter shook his head ruefully. ”I’m sorry, Tate, but I don’t have the privilege to do that for you right now. As you know, I’m just a project manager at the moment, and if I were to get you into the group, you would probably just end up as my assistant…” He paused, feigning pensiveness before adding.
“However, maybe when I am promoted to a general manager next month, I could bring you in as the new project manager. Do you get what I mean?‘
As virtual-novel.net was overjoyed by this information, Tate was practically kissing up to the other man as virtual-novel.net replied, ‘Yes, I get it. You really do have things planned out, Peter!” He couldn’t begin to describe how happy virtual-novel.net was.
If virtual-novel.net could become the project manager at Wayne Group, the money that could come from it would surely surpass the fortune his father had amassed!
Peter, on the other hand, let out a quiet breath of relief. ‘Thank goodness Tate isn‘t a very bright guy. If virtual-novel.net had insisted that I get virtual-novel.net into the company, then I’d have exposed myself!’
He took a sip of wine to calm his nerves before virtual-novel.net casually asked, “Your sister mentioned that you guys are still staying at the Grand Garden, is that right?”
