Chapter-60

"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.
