At noon, Grace arrived at the NextEra Corp headquarters in a rare edition luxury car, demanding to meet CEO Aiden Handrix.
She didn't even have Justin's private contact number. She had been given only one number, which connected her to his personal assistant, Noah. It was infuriating—but she had to bear it.
When Justin was informed that the daughter of businessman Collin Hartz was there to meet him, he denied the request.
She was told the CEO was busy and that she could book an appointment only if it was for business purposes.
"Do you know who you're talking to?" Grace snapped. "I'm the daughter of the Hartz family—the richest business family in the Eastern country! You dare ask me to wait for an appointment?"
"Ms. Hartz, I'm sorry," the security head, Trevor, responded, calm and firm, "but here, we follow our boss's orders. At this hour, he's unavailable to attend to any guests."
