Chapter 623
“What do you think, Darling? Based on our discussion, I think you''re more than capable of handling
the job. This shouldn''t be a problem for you, right?”
Donald nced at Jennifer and said, “This is an ordinary coborative project. Aren''t you overdoing
it by asking me, the vice president, to do it?”
“How would people know you''re the vice president if you remain silent about it? Besides, this project
isn''t as simple as you think. As Group promised to give us another one hundred million deal if
they are satisfied with our service. Darling, you have to put effort into this project. I have high hopes
for you.”
Donald heard of As Group before. It was a real estatepany. Nevertheless, he had never
expected As Group to be so wealthy that they would willingly invest one hundred million just for
the renovation works.
“By the way, you don''t have to do anything there. The person in charge of this project is Amelia
Ellis. Your job is merely to give her some bits of advice. It''s a simple job for you.”
At that, Donald heaved a sigh of relief.
“All right. I''ll go over tomorrow.”
The next morning, Jennifer headed to the office just to pass Donald''s approved proposal to the
company''s renovation team. She needed them tomence work on the mansion as soon as
possible.
After buying breakfast at the entrance, Donald took the bus to his destination to supervise the As
Project.

The bus was crowded with people during peak hour.
Donald wanted to experience the feeling of being an ordinary white-cor worker. However, he
regretted it right away after taking the bus.
Ugh! I should have just driven my car to the office! Why am I here to make myself suffer? Forget
about it! There are just a few stops left until I reach the ce.
As the thoughts urred to Donald, he caught a man reaching his hand out and silently
pickpocketing ady by fishing her wallet out of her pocket.
The passengers on the bus saw it too, but none of them attempted to stop the pickpocket.
Just when the pickpocket was about to leave with the wallet, Donald grabbed his hand.
“Why are you grabbing my hand? Let go of me!”
“Take out the wallet that you stole.”
“What are you talking about? When did I steal a wallet?”
Refusing to waste time, Donald pulled the pickpocket and pressed him down.
He took out thedy''s wallet from the pickpocket''s pocket and passed it back to her.
“Check your wallet and see if anything else is missing.”
Thedy quickly thanked Donald and kicked the pickpocket twice.
“Let me go! Do you hear me? I''ll make you regret it!”
The thief made a fuss, yelling at Donald. He looked as though he was about to start a fight with
Donald.
“Since I don''t have to clock in to work today, I''ll send you directly to the police station. Let''s see if
you still have the audacity to act so rudely,” Donald sneered.
He twisted the pickpocket''s arm and got ready to leave the bus. It was at that moment he saw three
men emerging from the crowd. All of them were holding shiny switchdes in their hands.
“Hey, you! Mind your own business. Let go of him now.”
The passengers, who were watching the scene, swiftly left upon seeing the weapons in the men''s
hands. In an instant, the crowded bus turned empty.
All of them had squeezed into the frontpartment, leaving only Donald and thedy behind.
They were afraid to get injured by ident.
Thedy wanted to make a move as well, but she could not, as the three men were ring daggers
at her with knives in their hands.
“Are you guys with him?” Donald asked cidly.
The bald man in the lead snorted. “With him? What do you mean by that? I can''t stand watching you
bully a good man. That''s why I''m asking you to let go of him.”
