Eventually, the board meeting ended with Mikayla's victory. Shawn stormed out, his face dark with anger.

"Mr. Salvatore, Mikayla's business acumen is just like yours back in the day!" Gavin complimented.

"She's still too arrogant and needs more training," Jorge replied, though he couldn't hide his proud smile. Seeing

Shawn, who had becless respectful in recent years, look so frustrated gave Jorge immense satisfaction. He

was pleasantly surprised Mikayla had managed to put Shawn in his place.

"Absolutely! Listening to Mikayla's passionate speech tookback to my own ambitious youth, Gavin agreed

with a laugh.

"There's nothing else to do today. You can get off work carly, Mikayla said, handing the documents to Quinnlyn.

She picked up her phone and headed for the elevator in the corner. "Wait fordownstairs," she said.

Juliet parked the car outside the building. Seeing Mikayla, she rolled down the window and waved

"How was your

ur first day at work?" Juliet looked at Mikayla, who sat in the back seat with a tired face.

Not bad, Mikayla replied, relaxing in front of Juliet. She leaned back, rolling her shoulders to relieve the tension.

"Seeing your ravaged look, | thought you had gone to the battlefield, Juliet joked.

"Almost. Let's grab sfood first," Mikayla said weakly. She hadn't felt hungry while busy, but now her

stomach growled.

"Okay. Let's go to our usual spot. After dinner, I'll take you to a spa and maybe buy you a new outfit. How's

that?" Juliet suggested.

Seeing Juliet's playful smile, Mikayla mumbled, "Why do I feel like I'm about to be sold?"

"Look at what you're wearing! I'll take you somewhere fun later, Juliet said, glancing at Mikayla's business suit in

the rearview mirror with a hint of disdain.

bright and colorful, and the real night had just begun.

"Where are you taking me?" Mikayla asked. They stood outside a seven-story building, loud music blasting from

inside. Juliet grabbed her arm and raised an eyebrow. "I did sresearch. There's something fun in here!"

Mikayla had never been to a place like this. She had gone to bars with Juliet before, but she had heard about this

place. It throbbed with strong drumbeats, crowded with noisy people, sexy dancers, and wild young men.

Dazzling lights flashed everywhere, mingling with the scent of alcohol, the sound of clinking glasses, and scenes

teetering on the edge of chaos.

Septem Nightclub was the biggest and most luxurious club in Xosa. The first floor was a bar open to everyone.

Floors two through six were for VIPS, and the seventh floor was exclusive to VVIPS. Being on the seventh floor

symbolized not only wealth but also status.

As Juliet led her effortlessly to the seventh floor, Mikayla asked, "So, do you chere often?"

"No way, | wouldn't dare. | chere just once when | was in a really bad mood," Juliet said, holding up one

finger with an

apologetic smile. Mikayla was like a best friend and older sister to her. Unlike with her family, Juliet always

listened to Mikayla.

eager yet nervous look, she suspected Juliet had something exciting and maybe a bit scary planned.
