Right at that moment, Sharon Edward was being halted by traffic police, and it appeared that she was in an
argument with them.
Zeke chuckled to himself. “She didn’t break any traffic laws again, did she? These female drivers...”
By then, Sharon had also noticed Zeke too.
She ignored the traffics cops and darted out to see him. “Mr. Williams, you’re here just in time!”
“Could you do me a favor and get my driving license back?” she said in her usual expressionless and aloof self.
Zeke couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. “I say, Ms. Edward. Shouldn’t you look a little more sincere when you’re
asking for a favor?”
“You look like you’re giving me an order right now.”
Sharon hesitated and squeezed out a tight smile. “Mr. Williams, can you please help me? I’m in a rush...”
Zeke waved his hands dismissively at her. “Just forget it. Please don’t smile. You look worse when you smile. What
happened this time?”
“I... went over the speed limit.”
“So you sped? Then just pay the fine. You’re the president of a company, I’m sure you don’t mind a little fine.”
Sharon looked at him sheepishly. “I went over the speed limit by too much, so they want to fine me one thousand.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI... I don’t have that much money on me.”
He knew Sharon’s entertainment company wasn’t doing well, but he hadn’t expected her to not be able to even fish
out one thousand.
That was practically the same as being bankrupt!
Sharon could see Zeke’s bewilderment, so she gave a little sigh and explained, “For some reason, all the employees
resigned today.”
“The little bit of funds we could touch were all used on their salaries and other allowances, so I only have a few
hundred left on me now.”
Zeke sighed. This is literally a princess to pauper story.
“Even if I helped you pay the fine, your company would still be in trouble. What are you going to do about that in
the future?”
Sharon answered, “Do you know Nutel Entertainment? They’ve been owing me money for the past two-three
months.”
“I’m on the way there now. If I can get my money back, then it’ll be enough for my company to rise from the
ashes.”
Nutel Entertainment?
Isn’t that mine?
“Alright, let’s go. I’ll go with you to get your money.”
“You?” Sharon exclaimed surprised. “That’s not necessary. I don’t want to get you in trouble.”
“Get me in trouble? What do you mean?”
Sharon took a deep breath. “I’ll be honest with you.”
“The director of Nutel Entertainment gave me a call earlier and told me that their company had a new boss. This
new boss is going to make an appearance today and they want to give him a grand welcome.”
“It’s likely not going to bode well with me going to ask for my owed money on the day they get a new boss. I might
even offend a few people along the way.”
“But the director told me that as long as I make this new boss happy, I’ll be able to get my money back today
itself.”
“The director’s intentions are very obvious. He wants me to entertain this new boss.”
“So if I bring a man with me, it will definitely piss them off. Then, not only will I not get my money back, but you
might get in trouble too.”
Zeke furrowed his eyebrows tightly together.
I am this new boss, so why didn’t I hear anything about a grand welcoming? And they have even arranged for this

Hmm... Looks like this company has some shady sides to it.
But now, there’s even more reason for me to go. At the very least I need to get rid of a few rotten apples.
Zeke asked, “So you’re willing to compromise to get your money? You’re ready to have drinks with this new boss
and entertain him?”
Sharon shook her head. “Me? Compromising for lousy money? Of course not!”
“I’ve thought things through. I’ll toast him once out of courtesy. If they want to force me to drink more, then I’ll
chew their heads off, even if that means I don’t get my money and my company goes bankrupt.”
“Don’t worry. I doubt things will get to that stage. Maybe this new boss will be an upright person, and he’ll take the
initiative to pay off his debts to you,” assured Zeke.
Sharon smiled bitterly. “You must be dreaming then.”
“The entertainment business is very shady. All the bosses in this industry are perverts, and the only thing they have
on their minds is their own pleasures. There’s not one good person among them.”
“Especially this new boss at Nutel Entertainment. I’ve heard from others that he’s a complete slime bag. He’s fat,
ugly, and has a huge, flat nose...”
