Upon returning to his rented home, Erwin checked the cupboard and began looking for the courier package his parents had sent.
"The packages I receive are always stored in the shoe cabinet, why isn't it there now?" Erwin searched anxiously. Fortunately, he finally found it in the shoe cabinet.
It was a document from JNE Express, thin and lightweight to the touch, but if one felt it carefully, the presence of a card inside was noticeable.
Erwin hurriedly tore open the document bag with eager hands and pulled out the card inside—it was indeed a black gold bank card with a chip.
"Mother wasn't lying to me, this really is a black gold SVIP card." Erwin rejoiced; with this card, he would have ceaseless funds.
With money now in his possession, Erwin's first thought was to reclaim his career.
"Just wait, you lowly Bashan, how dare you fire me; I'll buy the company and then we'll see who gets fired." A slight smile appeared on Erwin's lips.
Previously, Erwin had encountered department manager Bashan Davis mistreating a female subordinate in the restroom. Having witnessed the scene, Erwin struck Bashan directly, resulting in him being fired for assaulting his superior.
Erwin wanted to dispute and explain, but Bashan's uncle, a board director, counteracted fiercely, leading to Erwin's remaining salary being seized as compensation for Bashan's medical expenses, leaving Erwin unable to pay his rent.
Now, with funds in hand, Erwin's first plan was to acquire his company and reclaim his business.
Nevertheless, Erwin remained deeply interested in the cultural and entertainment industry, especially since his fiancee was the well-known celebrity Jocelyn; their careers were interconnected.
Besides regaining his business, he also needed to find a new home, for renting did not give him a sense of ownership.
"I remember there being a luxurious 40 billion Crown Villa in Oak Bay Community; that shall be my choice!" A small smile graced Erwin's face.
"Seems like I'll have to look for my assistant Damon tomorrow."
Thus, Erwin spent his last night in the rental. The next day, after breakfast, he took a cab straight to High Build Group, looking for his assistant, Damon, to help acquire his company and arrange for the luxury villa.
High Build Group was among Bandung City's largest firms, mainly involved in real estate, cultural and entertainment industries, and hospitality and catering.
Yet, this company was merely one of Erwin's father's branches, though in Bandung City, it stood unmatched, showcasing the Smith family's formidable industrial empire.
When Erwin arrived at High Build Group, it was around 10 in the morning, peak working hours, so there were fewer employees entering and leaving the company.
Stepping out of the cab, Erwin walked straight towards the High Build Group's entrance.
Looking around, the decor and staff attire indicated an extraordinary company.
At that moment, Erwin, clad in casual attire, indeed looked like a courier.
"Hey, who are you looking for?" A security guard approached and halted Erwin at the door.
"I'm here to see your General Manager, Damon," Erwin stated unwittingly.
"Do you suppose Mr. Damon is someone you can just meet whenever? Move on, don't hover here, go along." The security guard dismissed him impatiently.
Erwin's brow furrowed; he couldn't enter his own company?
"I am Mr. Damon's esteemed guest, my name is Erwin Smith, and you just need to inform Mr. Damon over the phone." Erwin maintained politeness, remembering the security guard was simply doing his job.
"Esteemed guest?" The guard sized up Erwin's cheap clothes with a trace of disdain. He'd never seen Damon entertain a shabby guest like Erwin during his years of service.
"Better let me in; if General Manager Damon gets upset, there might be little I can do for you," Erwin said, still politely.
"Who do you think you are?!" It wasn't the guard speaking this time but a younger security member, his eyes filled with arrogance as he approached Erwin.
"I want to deal with you, and I won't let you in, what can you do about it?" The young guard conveyed recklessness to Erwin, who returned the reminder with patience.
"I'm giving you one last chance, step aside, or..."
Just then, a young, attractive woman in a sexy outfit and red high heels approached the company entrance.
"What's happening?" The woman frowned, unable to keep from inquiring about the disturbance at the door.
The young guard, drawn like a fly to the beautiful director, responded eagerly.
"Director Abigail, he's just a courier. We didn't let him in, but he started to cause a commotion; don't worry, we'll get rid of him as soon as possible and there won't be any harm to the company's image..."
"Courier?" Director Abigail glanced at Erwin with her beautiful eyes. Without waiting for Erwin to respond, Erwin stepped forward and said aloud,
"You're the courier." Erwin couldn't help but give the young guard a disdainful glance. Such individuals were merely nuisances.
"I'm Mr. Damon's honored guest, please allow me in. I've important matters to convey to him." Erwin turned his attention to the young, attractive director, who, being a director, should understand the proper manners.
"What's your name, and do you have an appointment?" Alice asked lightly, her tone more accommodating than the earlier guard.
"My name's Erwin, no appointment needed, just report my name." Erwin's tone made Alice feel he was too presumptuous, but she managed her temper and spoke softly,
"Alright, I'll call and inquire for you."
She intended to dispatch Erwin swiftly; if he kept causing issues at the entrance, company image could suffer.
Alice pulled out her phone and dialed Damon. The call connected promptly, and to her surprise, Alice's expression shifted to one of astonishment.
