Two servants who were standing nearby responded by grabbing the man's arms to help him up.
The man panicked. He struggled to push the servants away and brought his knees back on the floor with a loud bang. It sounded much louder than before, we could faintly hear the sound of his joints cracking.
"No, don't send me away. Mrs. Roberts, I'll talk, I'll tell you everything..."
"Back then, Intelligence Real Estate was getting worse with each passing day under my supervision. Although the employees were working very hard, they could barely maintain the company's daily operations. Then, Mr. Roberts took charge via the Roberts Group. He was very well known to be a swift and decisive leader. Within a month, he had forced me into signing an acquisition contract. The more I thought about it, the more unwilling I was to give in. My good friend gave me the idea to take revenge on Mr. Roberts, to teach him a lesson. I was so overwhelmed with anger at that moment that I bought a bunch of..."
"Shut up!"
The man was abruptly interrupted by Hendrix. Everyone stared at his angry face.

"But..." Agustin then looked at me. He was conflicted for a moment. He couldn't leave nor could he stay. He would either be offending me or Hendrix, so walking down any of those paths would mean the end for him.
Andrea stood up recklessly just as I was about to tell Hendrix to be rational, and that he could lose his temper after allowing Agustin to finish his story.
"Hendrix, what are you afraid of? Let him finish. Everyone is very interested in this. Don't be such a spoil sport."
Love and dislike were easily distinguished from a single glance. The admiration for this young woman had turned into hatred.
She walked over to Agustin's side with a creepy smile on her face. She bent down, revealing her deep cleavage as she watched the fun. She blew into his ear and then said provocatively, "Go ahead, Arianna doesn't mind. Just say it out loud. Tell everyone how this rich woman behaves."
