“Zayne, was it you that got Mr. Lewis to help us collect our money from Glamorous Designs? Now that they’ve paid us, our company is back on its feet again. My dad said it was all thanks to Mr. Lewis.” Marian looked at him with hopeful eyes.
She was hoping that Zayne would be the one that contacted Tommy. Because if it really were him, then her parents would finally approve of her relationship with him. Besides that, her parents would be impressed by Zayne’s relationship with a formidable figure such as Tommy.
“Mr. Lewis?” Zayne was dumbfounded. But he managed to react quickly and said, “Oh, yes. I did mention the issue to Mr. Lewis. But I didn’t expect him to deal with it with such efficiency. I’m relieved now that the money has been collected.”
“I would’ve never expected you to be an acquaintance of someone like Mr. Lewis! Zayne, you’re incredible!” Maria threw herself into Zayne’s arms as she shouted with excitement. She then kissed him and said, “My mom told me to bring you over for dinner! Let’s see if my dad could still not look up to you after this!”
With happiness written all over her face, Maria held Zayne’s arm as they walked toward the parking lot.
Kai, on the other hand, had just arrived home. Upon his arrival, Hannah asked anxiously, “Kai, how was your interview? Did they give you a job?”
“Mom, the interview was a success. I’m now a salesperson. The benefits aren’t too bad.” Kai flashed a faint smile.
“Oh, that’s great! We owe our gratitude to Maria, then. We should look for an opportunity to go thank them in person. I’m less worried now that you have a proper job.” Hannah was smiling with satisfaction.
Kai couldn’t help but keep silent when he saw how happy his mother was.
“Kai, go and clean yourself up. Mr. Saunders has invited us out for dinner.” Gary was holding his phone when he walked into the house.
“Gary, why did Franklin do that? After what he has done for Kai, we should be buying him dinner instead!” Hannah was puzzled.
“I think it’s because his company received a sum of money owed to them. His company is going to do well again,” Gary answered.
“That’s great! That’s good karma indeed.” Hannah felt happy for Franklin.
Upon hearing that, Kai smiled faintly and went to change.
Kai was meant to call Tommy to follow up. I never expected him to be so efficient! It seems like I should also ask him to collect debt for Sentiment Chemical Limited as well. After all, the money belongs to me.
Meanwhile, Franklin had arrived at Glamor Hotel. He had reserved a table for dinner. It was his first visit in a long time because the food served there was pricey. Furthermore, his company had been in debt for quite a while. He simply couldn’t afford to dine in at that restaurant.
“Wow. This place looks amazing! It’s my first time here!” Maria was very impressed by how grand the Glamor Hotel was.
“Since this belongs to the Sullivan family, maybe I could get a twenty percent discount if I show them my work pass!” Zayne said proudly.
“That’s true! We’re actually contributing to their revenue by dining here!” Maria entered while holding Zayne’s hand.
They arrived at one of the private rooms at the restaurant. When they opened the door, Franklin and Frieda were already seated at the dining table.
“Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Saunders!” Zayne greeted politely.
“Hi!” Frieda stood up hurriedly and said, “Have a seat, Zayne. We’re practically family. Don’t be shy!”
