“I didn’t slam the table in an argument with a customer, but I did say something rather impolite to him in
anger because he was purposefully picking on me.”
Skeptical of my explanation, he pointed out my mistake by saying, “Still, customers are gods. Even if a
customer is making things difficult on purpose, that’s not reason enough to blow up at him, is it?”
It was true that Eric was teasing me, but Richard was also right. All kinds of demands would be raised
by customers and I shouldn’t have argued with a customer just because he was being a little difficult. “I
am really sorry. I have to admit I got it wrong on that case.” I confessed.

the building?”
“That’s right,” he said in confirmation. When he saw that I was tongue-tied with glee, he asked, “I hear
you’re already married!”
“Yes,” I replied dryly and hesitantly, not knowing why he would ask about that.
“Why did a woman as beautiful as you get married so early? It is a shame.”
I found it very strange that my early marriage seemed such a shame to him, and as I was thinking
about it, I saw him approaching me, saying, “Miss Lilian, you look stunning tonight, and you danced so

At this point, he had already leaned over with a smoldering look in his eyes. “The first time I laid eyes
on you, I was already drawn to you because you are the most beautiful woman I have ever met. Dona
Lilian, I have a favor to ask of you. Can we be friends?”
“It would be an honor to be your friend, young master Richard. But…” I stammered, taken aback by his
advances. “But can you please stand a little further away from me when you’re speaking? I’m not used
to talking to people so close.”
“Of course we have to be close to each other to be friends. I feel so far away from you when you’re

you’re mine, I’ll let you design my building and treat her well. You can also come to me whenever you
need something.” He pressed and grabbed my hand as he spoke.
Was that considered a deal? I wasn’t the type of person who would close deals like that, so I pushed
him aside and yelled, “Young Master Richard, what kind of person do you think I am?”
