Chapter 85


    Franklin weed Zayne with a smile as well. “Zayne, it’s all thanks to you! Now mypany is safe.


    We should have a few drinks together to celebrate.” Zayne was getting arrogant upon seeing how


    Franklin’s attitude toward him had changed. “It’s just a small matter, Mr. Saunders! As Mrs. Saunders


    said, we’re family now!” Zayne sat down next to Franklin pridefully. Although Zayne knew that he had


    nothing to do with collecting the debt for Franklin, he epted the recognition anyway.

    He had to take the opportunity to make a good impression out of himself. “Zayne, I had no idea you


    knew Mr. Lewis! You should’ve seen the look on the owner of morous Designs’ face when he came


    with my money! He was so scared that he almost kneeled before me. It was so satisfying to watch!”


    Throughout the years, Franklin had never been treated with such respect. “Just let me know if your


    company needs help with anything from now on, Mr. Saunders. Although I’m just a departmental


    manager, there’s nothing I can’t deal with in the whole of Horington,” Zayne gloated shamelessly. He


    wasn’t worried about getting exposed because he knew that no one at the table knew Tommy. “All right.


    From now on, I’ll rely on you for all thepany matters. Since Maria is my only daughter, whatever I


    have now will definitely be passed down to you in the future.” Franklin’s admiration for Zayne had


    grown greatly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Saunders. I’ll love Maria unconditionally!” Zayne nodded excitedly.


    “Enough talking. I’m starving! Could we please have our food now?” Maria pouted. “A while more,


    okay? I’ve invited Mr. Chance and his family as well. They should be here soon!” Franklin eximed.


    “Why would you invite outsiders to our family dinner?”


    Maria’s face turned sullen when she found out that Jared was invited to the dinner. “Silly girl! Mr.


    Chance had saved my life before!” Franklin red at Maria before continuing, “Speaking of which, how


    did Jared’s interview go?” “Mr. Saunders, it was a sess. I worked my magic as the departmental


    manager!” Zayne took credit for Jared’s interview brazenly. “Thank you, Zayne!” Franklin gratefully


    looked at Zayne.


    Suddenly, the door to the room opened, and Jared waltzed in with his family. “We’re sorry for being


    late!” Gary apologized. “It’s fine, Squad Leader! We’ve just arrived too.” Franklin weed them


    warmheartedly. Jared was startled when he saw Zayne present at the dinner.


    However, he didn’t say a word. On the other hand, Zayne stared at him and taunted, “Hey, Jared, we


    meet again! Did you know that Maria and I had to make excuses on your behalf with the staff? All


    because you disobeyed thepany rule.” Upon hearing that, Gary red at Jared and asked,


    “What’s going on, Jared?”


    “Exactly, Jared. What’s going on?” Hannah added. Franklin was equally puzzled as well. “Upon his


    sessful interview, he was supposed to buy everyone dinner! It’s a long-standing departmental


    tradition. Instead, Jared said he had no money, and he just left. It was so embarrassing for Zayne and


    me,” Maria raged.
