60 An Unexpected Encounter
Emma made an impromptu visit to Warren’s company, accompanied by her team. The unannounced
inspection took Warren by surprise during a crucial meeting about their partnership. Emma’s presence
signified the importance of this evaluation; success meant a partnership, but failure would spell the
end.
Warren was on edge, unsure of Emma’s intentions. He watched nervously as she scrutinized every
detail of his office, even inspecting the potted plants. Once settled, Emma bypassed discussions about
the partnership, instead casually inquiring about Warren’s recent activities,
Warren shared his experiences, recalling a past encounter with Emma’s brothers that had left a lasting
impression. He respected and feared Emma’s influence,
Anxiously, Warren sought direct feedback, “If there’s anything unsatisfactory, please let me know. I
can take it.”
Emma reassured him, “The partnership stands. I’m here to assess firsthand. You’re smaller
compared to our usual partners, but I see potential. Impress not just me but my discerning team. If you
can satisfy them, our partnership is set.”
Warren, understanding the rarity of this opportunity, prepared to face the scrutiny head–on.
After the meeting, Emma stepped outside to call Maxwell. They had learned that Alex was also
interested in partnering with Warren. Emma wasn’t about to let Alex win without a challenge, partly
driven by a desire to make things difficult for him after the tumultuous past few years.
With Jada arriving late, carrying documents from Bruce, Emma learned she needed to oversee an
inspection at a mall, featuring a promotional event by Maxwell.
The mall was buzzing with excitement, a stark contrast to its usual amblance, due to Maxwell‘
popularity.
“Imagine this at a stadium,” Jada remarked, amazed by the fan turnout.
Emma, accustomed to her brother’s fame, still marveled at the affection he commanded.

performance the other night at the lounge bar. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“I saw you sing Maxwell’s songs! Can I have your contact?” the girl, Lorna, asked excitedly.
Emma, pleasantly surprised, exchanged numbers with Lorna.
“If you’re here for the event, it might be too late. But there’s a good spot for photos over there,” Emma
advised, pointing Lorna towards a prime location.
This unexpected encounter highlighted Emma’s growing recognition, a testament to her impact beyond
her immediate circle.
