Jeffry replied, his voice firm.

“Are you implying our training programs are subpar?”

Glenn was now a titan in the business arena, and his non-threatening demeanor veiled a formidable presence, one that now had Jeffry perspiring under its weight.

“No, no, that’s not what I meant…” Jeffry stammered.

“If you question the integrity of my enterprise, Mr.

Chapman, I believe we have nothing further to discuss.

Please, see yourself out Glenn said, his dismissal accompanied by a nonchalant wave of his hand.

Jeffry was shocked and rooted to the spot.

Moments later, Glenn’s assistant appeared, flanked by security, ready to “assist” Jeffry in making his exit.

Phyllis and Jenna awaited anxiously at the entrance of the mall.

Spotting Jeffry, Phyllis brightened momentarily, hoping for good news.

“Honey, there you are.

Did Mr.

Johns send you to sort things out with the staff here?” Phyllis inquired, a hopeful smile on her face.

“Shut up! This is all your fault!” Jeffry snapped, his temper flaring.

“Had you not stirred up trouble today, Mr.

Johns wouldn’t have cancelled our partnership! Why did you have to accuse his staff?”

Phyllis’s face turned pale at his words, shock overtaking her features.

The thought that a simple accusation could jeopardize significant business dealings seemed unfathomable.

“How can this be? Does Mr.

Johns truly value his employees to such an extent?” she murmured, disbelief and concern etching her voice.

Jeffry was unable to mask his frustration.

“You’re such an idiot! Do you ever think before you act? We need the Johns family far more than they need us!”

His words were sharp, each one echoing the gravity of their missed chance.

Jenna, witnessing the growing tension between her parents, felt a wave of unease.

She interjected softly, hoping to quell th

 

e storm, “Mom, Dad, please stop fighting.

The dance competition is about to start, and I’ll be seeing Ms.

Johns there.

Maybe I can still make things right for us.

Snapped out of her dismay, Phyllis grasped at this new thread of hope.

“Yes, you’re right.

Ms.

Johns, Mr.

Glenn Johns’s sister, might be able to help.

Jenna, if you can speak with her, there might still be a chance to mend things.

Jeffry, his anger subsiding slightly, nodded in agreement.

“Jenna, it seems we have to count on you now.

Jenna reassured them, “With our family facing these challenges, of course, I’ll step in.

Don’t worry, Mom and Dad.

I’ll do everything I can to help.

This reassurance from Jenna lightened Phyllis’s and Jeffry’s spirits.

In Jenna, they saw not just their daughter but a beacon of hope- unlike Madisyn, who had only brought them frustration.

Besides, even if they didn’t get the chance to cooperate with the Johns Group eventually, they still had the support from another group, so they remained optimistic that their business could continue its steady growth.

Inside the bustling mall, Elaine treated Madisyn to an impromptu shopping spree, piling up fashionable clothes that Madisyn couldn’t turn down.

Elaine’s enthusiasm was infectious as she led Madisyn next to a jewelry store.

Elaine’s petite frame belied her zealous energy for shopping, and Madisyn found herself struggling to keep pace.
