"Fine, two tickets it is. I''m easy to please," Jack conceded.


    After reaching Canraville, Jack was furious to learn that Ster Group''s executives had made a surprise visit to the Avesburgh office. He had to rush back by train, as entertaining the executives that evening was non-negotiable.


    At New Glory''s luxury real estate office, only a few sales agents were with clients, as such high-end properties naturally drew limited customers. Just as thest clients left, a sharp p echoed through the office, drawing everyone''s attention. "Ms. Martinez, w-why did you hit me?" Michelle Smith asked in disbelief, holding her cheek.


    "Why? You worthless bitch! I lost a vi sale because you offended my clients. Tell me- don''t you deserve that p?" Julia Martinez snapped.


    Michelle fought back tears as she defended herself, "They tried to get handsy, and I didn''t even say anything-I just walked away! How is it my fault if they won''t buy?"


    Julia pointed at Michelle angrily, her eyes burning with rage. "Oh, still talking back?"


    Then, she raised her hand for another p while the other agents looked on with mixed expressions. Even so, none none stepped forward. After all, Julia was their top seller, someone even their manager would not even cross.


    As Michelle closed her eyes in fear, the expected pain never came. She opened her eyes to find a young man holding Julia''s wrist.

    "No authorization? Well, I insist on having her sell me a vi. Is that going to be a problem?


    Julia fumed. She was the undisputed queen of this office, and even the sales manager did not dare cross her. Looking Felix over more carefully now, she decided he could not possibly afford their 50 million-dor vis. He was probably just some nobody trying to impress Michelle.


    Julia crossed her arms arrogantly and stated, "Let me be clear-nothing happens here without my say-so. Besides, do you even have the means? We require a financial check before showing our vis."
