Cheryl strutted in her high heels and slid into Wasyl's sleek sports car, peeling away from the curb with an air of superiority.
Qemal, with a stoic expression, slipped into his car. He was silent as a ghost and took off down the road.
Sawyer, with Anna in tow, climbed into his vehicle. As he rolled down the window, he shot a look of pure disdain at Celena, who was burdened with an armful of paperwork. "Celena, make sure you handle that. Tidy up those documents and shoota copy, will you? I've got drinks lined up with sbuddies, so we're off," he said calmly.

Back in Wasyl's car, Cheryl lounged in the passenger seat. Wasyl's hand crept up her smooth thigh. Seizing a moment at the red light, he leaned in for a few quick kisses and asked with a grin, "Dear, you seem upset. What's eating you?"
Cheryl shoved his hand away, visibly irked. "It's Celena. She's the lead on this project, and I can't stand the thought of her one-upping me," she snapped.
She turned to face Wasyl, her eyes shooting daggers. "You promised you'd secure the lead position for me, Wasyl. And now it's Celena. Were you just stringingalong?"
Wasyl flashed a sly grin and scooted closer to Cheryl, his voice smooth as silk, "My dear, why would I ever lie to you? Just relax, I've got it all under control. Celena's just a clueless girl, no clout, and no connections. How's she supposed to handle this deal? I've got a heavy hitter from Drunham City's underbelly on board. He'll make sure Celena won't lay her hands on the materials in time. When she misses the deadline and the project stalls, it's going to cost a fortune! You think your grandpa's
gonna let her stay in charge after that? Will Max Group still trust her to handle their business? Just be ready to step in with what's needed, and when the tcomes, you'll swoop in with the supplies. Then, who else but you could be calling the shots?"
Wasyl's voice was calm, but his face twisted into a snarl as if he were ready to tear Celena apart.
Cheryl's frown turned upside down, her face lighting up with a mix of cunning and glee. "For real? Hahaha, I can't wait to see Celena try to outdonow! She thinks she can outshine me? In her dreams!"

Wasyl's breath hitched, his excitement palpable as he blurted out, "Forget the office, let's hit a hotel! You little vixen, I'll show you what's what!"
Elsewhere, Liam and Calum pulled up in a rugged military Jeep in front of a skyscraper that pierced the clouds. They climbed out, one after the other, ready to face the Jerden Group.
The Jerden Group, the crown jewel of Drunham City's enterprises, was the brainchild of none other than Kolten Reath, the city's richest man. It was not just a local sensation; the Jerden Group was a household nacross Willoughby, a titan among businesses.
Liam, with Calum in tow, strode through the Jerden Group's grand entrance. The receptionist at the front desk, clad in a crisp white suit that flattered her figure, greeted them with a practiced smile. "Good morning, sir! Who may I assist you with today?"
