Despite being retired from all business work, he still enjoyed his time with my mom and pursued his hobbies. But as the major shareholder of Fame Foods, his presence at the launch was expected. I approached my parents' table, with Rose by my side. "Mom, Dad!" I greeted them with a smile. Rose joined in, politely addressing them, "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Jones." My mom's face lit up with excitement. "Oh my! So, you're Rose! I've been dying to see you since..." I quickly cleared my throat, realizing that my parents' enthusiasm could sometimes be overwhelming. "Since I found out that you'll be working on the ad campaign for our new product. You're just as beautiful as described." Rose seemed a bit taken aback. "As described?" I chimed in, trying to diffuse the situation. "By Mark," I added, gesturing to my little man who was eagerly holding Rose's hand. "He told me you're amazing and I've also heard he always listens to you." mom said, Rose nodded gently squeezing Mark's hand. Mom nodded, beaming. "Oh, yes! He is such a sweet kid. He always listens to me." Dad playfully interjected, his eyes twinkling. "You're not talking about this guy right here, are you? He's a little devil." He pointed at Mark, leaving Rose momentarily confused. It was true that Mark listened to her, but the same couldn't be said for the rest of us.

"He's just like how Joseph was when he was a kid," Dad continued, teasingly. "He never listened to me, but always listened to what his mom told him to do." I inwardly groaned. Wow, they were being a bit too direct with their comparisons. I should have reminded them not to bring up my childhood antics before coming here. Trying to change the subject, I spoke up. "Mom, could you look after Mark for a while? Make sure he doesn't wander off too far." I motioned for the bodyguards to keep an eye on Mark. "I'll take Rose with me." Mom nodded, understanding my request, and I guided Rose to my friends' table. It was filled with all my close friends, except for Victor. I let out a sigh of relief, realizing that Victor's absence meant I wouldn't have to worry about him immediately starting to flirt with Rose. I needed to have a talk with him and make it clear that he should back off. As we settled in, surrounded by laughter and friendly banter, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the light-hearted atmosphere. It was a much-needed break from the intensity of the situation. Little did I know that the night was about to get even more interesting with unexpected twists and turns, but for now, I savored the humorous moments and the company of good friends. I spotted Victor chatting with the chairman of Fame Foods and his father Mr. Kent, behind the stage. I greeted both of them with a smile. "Joseph, I was hoping to talk to you. I owe you an apology for what happened in the meeting that day. But I'm quite happy with the work you've don't with Rose," Mr. Kent said, his tone apologetic. "You've seen it?" I asked, feeling a mix of relief and curiosity. "Sarah was once my loyal employee too," he replied, and I nodded, acknowledging Sarah's reputation for being trustworthy. "I also heard about the commotion that happened in the office today. Do you need my help with that brat? You know how much Randy owes me," Mr. Kent offered, concern evident in his voice. "Don't worry, I'll handle it myself," I reassured him, appreciating his willingness to support me. Then my attention turned to Victor. "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Sure. Excuse us, Dad," Victor said, following me as we moved to the side. I leaned in, adopting a more conspiratorial tone. "Dude..." Victor's eyes wandered and he pointed discreetly, asking, "Is that Rose?" His face lit up. "She looks so different. She looks beautiful." I grinned mischievously. "That's what I want to talk about. I don't want any misunderstandings between us. I'm asking you to leave her alone." Victor raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity in his expression. "Why? Do you like her or something?" I nodded, unable to suppress a sheepish smile. "Yes." His eyes widened, intrigued. "Are you two dating?" I shook my head. "No." A mischievous glint sparked in Victor's eyes. "Then, you two are not together. It means she doesn't like you yet." I chuckled, appreciating his logic. "Yes." Victor crossed his arms, ready to debate. "Then we are equal. We both have the same chance with her. So why do I need to back off?" I chuckled again, playfully nudging him. "Because I'll kick your balls if you try to hurt her. Judging by your track record, you will. And let me tell you, she isn't the type to date people for fun. And neither am I." Victor mockingly clutched his chest, feigning sincerity. "I can be serious for such a beauty, I promise." I grinned, enjoying our banter. "So you're not backing off?" Victor flashed a competitive smirk. "I'm feeling a little competitive." I shrugged, a twinkle of amusement in my eyes. "Fine, but don't come crying when you lose. You know why? Because I'm the one she sees every day. Not you. Close to sight is close to the heart. So, my friend, prepare to lose gracefully." Victor laughed, realizing the lightheartedness of our conversation. "Alright, challenge accepted. Let the best man win." We both chuckled, knowing that our playful rivalry wouldn't affect our friendship. It was all in good fun, and deep down, we both wanted what was best for Rose. I returned to where Rose was seated, expecting to find her alone. However, to my surprise, Mark had taken my place and was calmly holding her hand while engaged in a conversation with Chad. There was something about the way they interacted that made it seem like they belonged together. Mark treated her with respect and care, despite their relatively short acquaintance. And Rose, she appeared at ease with Mark, as if they had known each other for a lifetime. I couldn't deny that I had feelings for Rose, and a part of it was influenced by the bond she shared with Mark. I had always hoped to find someone whom Mark could love and respect, and seeing that possibility right before my eyes made my heart both hopeful and conflicted. Lost in my thoughts, Rose's voice broke through. "What are you thinking?" she asked, her gaze fixed on my face. I snapped back to reality and mustered a smile. "Nothing, just listening to you guys." She seemed to sense there was more to it, her eyes searching mine. "Joseph," she called, and I hummed in response. "Can you stay with Mark for a second? I need to make a quick trip to the powder room. He's not feeling comfortable here." "He's not very good with strangers," I admitted, understanding her concern. "Mark, come on, let's get you something to drink." He nodded eagerly, and together we made our way to the refreshment area. As Mark happily sipped his juice, Mr. Kent and Victor took the stage, capturing the attention of the audience. Victor proceeded to greet everyone and make an exciting announcement about the launch of a new supermarket and two manufacturing factories for Fame Foods. He handed the microphone to his father, Mr. Kent, who began speaking. He stood tall on the stage, commanding the attention of the gathered audience. A hush fell over the room as he cleared his throat and began to speak. "Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests, thank you all for joining us tonight. It is a momentous occasion for Fame Foods, as we not only celebrate our success but also embark on an exciting new chapter." A round of applause echoed throughout the venue, signalling the enthusiasm of the crowd. "I stand before you today as a man who has dedicated his life to this company, alongside my esteemed colleague, Mr. Jones. We have faced numerous challenges and overcome countless obstacles, but our unwavering commitment has propelled Fame Foods to its position of prominence in the industry." The crowd nodded in agreement, recognizing the tireless efforts that had brought Fame Foods to its current standing. "Throughout my journey, I have worked diligently, often sacrificing personal pursuits for the greater good of the company. I have been blessed with success, but I must admit that I haven't had the chance to fully enjoy the fruits of my labor." A knowing smile crossed Mr. Kent's face, eliciting sympathetic chuckles from the audience. "However, life is a tapestry of seasons, and now the time has come for me to embark on a new adventure. I have decided to retire and embark on a well-deserved journey with my beloved wife, to cherish the moments we have longed for." The audience erupted into applause, showing their appreciation for Mr. Kent's years of dedication and understanding his desire for a fulfilling retirement. "But fret not, my dear friends, for Fame Foods will continue to flourish under the capable leadership of one who is capable. those who have proven themselves time and again, displaying an unwavering commitment and a remarkable ability to navigate the intricacies of this industry." Proud smiles spread across the faces of those who knew Victor, acknowledging his accomplishments. "Therefore, in the spirit of transparency and fairness, I declare that a board meeting will be held next week to officially vote on Victor or Joseph to assign one of the for assuming the responsibilities of the chairman. I have full confidence in their abilities, and I trust that you, the shareholders, will support them as well." A murmur of agreement resonated throughout the venue, acknowledging the need for a smooth transition of power. "In closing, I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. Without your unwavering support and trust, Fame Foods would not be the thriving company it is today. I implore you all to savor this evening, revel in the joyous atmosphere, and know that the future of Fame Foods is bright." The applause thundered through the room, a testament to the appreciation and respect the audience held for Mr. Kent and the legacy he had built. As Mr. Kent stepped down from the stage, a sense of anticipation filled the air. The future of Fame Foods now lay in the capable hands of Victor, and the upcoming board meeting would shape the path ahead. Excitement and celebration mingled, creating an electric atmosphere within the venue. As he made his way towards me, Mr. Kent asked, "Where is Rose? I heard she's here. I need to talk to her." I quickly scanned the area, but Rose hadn't returned yet. "She was just here. I'll find her for you," I assured him and swiftly made my way to the ladies' room, hoping to locate her. The bustling venue only added to the challenge of finding her, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. The search took an unexpected turn as I stumbled upon a group of people huddled near a hidden corner. Curiosity got the better of me, and I discreetly approached, listening to their whispered conversation.
