[Soul. What I want is for you to put your heart and soul into the design. This and the design must reflect Holden Group’s commitment to providing value to the public. I didn’t spend all that money to hire you just for your professional skills but also for the care you put into designing Crescent Building. Don’t try to fool me with this hastily rushed design that looks flawless but has no soul. Moon, I can see that you’re quite proficient in your designing skills, but you’re not taking this project seriously.]

Corinne was stunned, though she agreed with what Jeremy wrote. Indeed, she did not put her heart and soul into the design she sent him. Instead, she relied on her refined technical skills to come up with another soulless design.

‘Jeremy is right. I need to put my heart and soul into this, just like how I did with Crescent Building. Besides, it’s reasonable for him to demand that I come up with a better design since he’s paying a hundred fifty million dollars,’ thought Corinne.

Thus, she replied, [Okay, I understand. Thank you for pointing this out. Please allow me some time to come up with a new design. You have my assurance that you’ll be satisfied with the next design.]

No replies came from Jeremy after this.

Sitting in front of the computer, Corinne rested her chin on her hand and started brainstorming some ideas. The previous draft was completely useless to her since she would need to start all over again. ‘I need to come up with a new design concept for Holden Group’s new building…’

The next morning, Jeremy specifically asked Bowen not to

wake up the slumbering Corinne. He then took his breakfast and went to work.

At that moment, Corinne had not woken up, and unbeknown to her, Sherlyn and her parents had already arrived outside her house.

After Sherlyn got out of the car, she pointed to the mansion and resentfully said, “Mom, Dad, this is the place! I saw Corinne walking into the house like she owned the place last time.”

Marvin and Lilliana were gobsmacked by just how huge the mansion was. They knew it would take more than money alone to be able to own such a huge mansion in the downtown area. Only powerful and prominent families like the Holdens. could get a permit to build a mansion right in the middle of the city.

“Marvin, look at how grand this mansion is! Our daughter would’ve been living there as Jeremy’s wife if it wasn’t for Corinne. We could drop by anytime we want to visit her instead of standing outside like this,” said Lilliana bitterly.

Marvin frowned unhappily. He felt as though he had just lost an opportunity to pocket 15000000 dollars, and it was all Corinne’s fault. Therefore, he was determined to get to the bottom of everything. “Sherlyn, go ring the doorbell.”

Sherlyn nodded and jabbed at the doorbell repeatedly, angrily. However, the gate did not open for them. Instead, an old man’s face appeared on the monitor.

“May I know who you are looking for?” asked the old man kindly.

“We’re looking for Corinne. Is she in?” Sherlyn answered.

Bowen was a little surprised by the discovery, and he immediately grew guarded. “Ah, you’re looking for Ma’am. What business do you have with you?”

Sherlyn could have erupted with fury there and then when she heard Bowen addressing Corinne as ‘Ma’am’. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mom, Dad, you both heard how he addressed Corinne as ‘ma’am’! This just proves that everything Anya told us yesterday is true! Gah! I’m so angry I could strangle someone right now.”

Being more experienced than Sherlyn, Lilliana calmly pushed aside the overly-emotional Sherlyn and said to Bowen, “Hello. We, Corinne’s father, mother, and sister, thought it’d be nice to drop in to visit her for a while. If she’s in, would you be so kind as to open the gate for us?”
