"You know Mr.Jas?" Alice seed slightly taken aback, then she looked at Irving with disdain, "I advise you not to cause trouble here, or it will be embarrassing when you get kicked out!"
Alice knew Irving quite well. Irving's parents had died in a car accident years earlier, leaving him a house in the city center.
Without this house, Alice probably wouldn't even glance at him.
To her, Irving was just an average Joe, soone who could never cross paths with Mr.Jas.
"And what was that you were saying about a pregnancy test...? I don't understand But now I'm pregnant, and the child inside is yours." Alice continued in a lowered voice, threatening, "I know where you live. If you dare to run, my brother won't let you get away!"
Charles?
A flicker of coldness flashed in Irving's deep eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that he was busy with the ga recently, he would have taught this pair of siblings a lesson a long ti ago.
Now, less than four hours remained before the first catastrophe in the ga... Irving really didn't have the ti to deal with Alice. He walked straight towards the elevator.
"Security! Co quickly!"
Alice was enraged.
On one hand, she was confused about Irving's attitude. She didn't understand how the Irving who used to be like an ass-kisser to her seed to have changed entirely. On the other hand, as the company's receptionist, it was her responsibility if a stranger made it upstairs.
Alice began to shout in the direction of the entrance.
Soon, several burly security guards ca running in, again stopping Irving: "Sir, I'm sorry. You can't go up without an appointnt."
One of the guards stared coldly at Irving, issuing a final warning: "Please leave imdiately, or we'll be forced to remove you!"
Seeing this, Alice felt a wave of satisfaction, crossing her arms and watching with cold eyes.
At that mont, the nearby elevator doors suddenly opened.
Jas rushed out as if there was so urgent matter, just in ti to see the security guards about to forcefully remove Irving. His face instantly turned sour: "What are you doing?!"
"Mr.Jas...why are you here?" Alice was surprised.
She quickly walked over to Jas, sycophantically saying, "Mr.Jas, if you need anything in the future, just call the front desk. I can run errands for you, like fetching docunts or delivering ssages..."
She dreamt of making a good impression in front of Jas!
"Who told you to stop him?" Jas glared at Irving, questioning.
The guards seed to sense sothing from his tone. They looked at Irving with complex expressions and quickly let go of him.
However, Alice didn't notice this at all.
More accurately, she refused to believe that a loser like Irving could have any connection with a high-profile figure like Jas.
"It was !" Alice didn't want to miss this opportunity to shine. "Mr.Jas, this man insisted on going upstairs to see you and claid to know you. How ridiculous! The Green Ivy Group isn't a place that any Tom, Dick or Harry can just waltz into."
While speaking, she even gave Irving a sideways glance.
"Just anybody?" Jas was taken aback. He knew better than anyone the strength of Irving. He glared fiercely at Alice and shouted, "Shut up! Listen to carefully. I invited Mr. Irving! He is a distinguished guest of our Green Vine Group.
Apologize, apologize to Mr. Irving right now!"
Gasp.
At this mont, all the people present couldn't help but gasp.
The smile on Alice's face instantly froze, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Irving was full of disbelief: "How... how is this possible!"
Irving just smiled faintly. He didn't say a word from beginning to end, as if he was an outsider.
"Didn't you hear asking you to apologize?" Jas said sternly.
"Sorry, sorry..." In the end, Alice had to compromise. She gritted her teeth and bowed deeply to Irving.
As for the security guards, they were inford by Jas that even without an appointnt, Irving could freely enter and exit Green Vine Group in the future.
"And you." Jas' gaze fell on Alice again,. In fact, he had noticed this enthusiastic receptionist a long ti ago, but he just didn't look up to this kind of stuff. "This ti it's fine. Dare to have next ti, you can imdiately go to HR to resign, and one more thing, know your place! You just need to do your job as a receptionist, as for helping send docunts and issue notices..."
"You are not qualified!"
Alice stood in place like a wooden chicken. Until Jas and Irving entered the elevator, she still hadn't recovered from the shock. A bitter feeling surged in her heart, and tears of grievance were about to fall: "Isn't he a loser? How could this happen... Did he hide it from before?"
...
On the other side, in the office at the top of Green Vine Group.
"Mr. Irving, I'm really sorry about just now." Jas said, his face showing a bit of apology.
Then, he gave the collected wood and stones to Irving: "These basic materials each have 7,000 pieces. If you need more in the future, just let know."
Irving nodded, relying on Jas' network of resources could indeed save him a lot of ti.
After putting those basic materials into the bag, Irving asked Jas: "What is the surprise you ntioned?"
If it weren't for Jas insisting that he had a surprise for him, he wouldn't have bothered to co. And if he hadn't co, he wouldn't have encountered that bitch Alice.
"I believe you will be interested in this." As he spoke, Jas took out an item that looked like a scroll.
Irving's gaze fell on it, and a virtual interface appeared before his eyes.
[Item Information: "Swamp Trap" Blueprint]
[Item Introduction: Using this blueprint, you can set up a swamp area outside the shelter. Whether it's alien beasts or other players, once they enter this area they will be trapped and unable to escape, and it also has a poisoning attribute.]
"A trap?"
After reading the introduction, Irving was a bit surprised, but more excited.
He knew very well that the first wave of disaster was about to co, player shelters were being attacked by a large number of alien beasts. Such traps could play a large protective role.
"Thanks to your help at the park last ti. My sister and I owe our lives to you. Please accept this blueprint of the trap as a token of my gratitude." said Jas, afraid that Irving would refuse.
This blueprint was a sincere offering!
Without any hesitation, Irving accepted the[blueprint of the Swamp Trap]and said slowly, "I don't like to owe people."
Having said that, Irving took out the equipnt he had obtained from killing the Wind Demonic Wolves in the mine. There were twenty-five pieces in total. Vicky had chosen three, leaving twenty-two, which he placed in front of Jas.
The quality of this equipnt ranged from ordinary to top-tier, with a minimum of one star and a maximum of five stars.
Jas was stunned.
Even though he was the general manager of the Green Ivy Group and had ford a guild, he had never seen so many pieces of equipnt at once!
Even more astonishing was the fact that all of these pieces had co from a single person!
He paused for a mont before asking, "Mr. Irving, what do you an by this?"
"Consider these as paynt for your help gathering materials and for the trap blueprint." Irving said nonchalantly.
There were twenty-three pieces of equipnt in total. Even if they were sold on the market, they would be worth millions of dollars!
However, to Irving, these pieces of equipnt were like a white elephant. After leaving them, he rose to leave.
He wanted to return and continue upgrading his shelter before the first wave of disaster hit, preferably setting up the[blueprint of the Swamp Trap]as well.
"Wait..." Jas quickly stood up. "Mr. Irving, please wait. Actually, I have another matter to discuss with you."
"What is it?" Irving asked, puzzled.
"I would like to invite you to join our Green Ivy Guild." Jas said sincerely.
Ever since the Other world Ga appeared, he realized that there would be a major reshuffling of power in the country. This could be both a blessing and a curse for the Green Ivy Group...
If the Green Ivy Group could seize this opportunity, they might beco more prosperous. If not, they could fall from grace, even facing life-threatening danger.
If the incident at the park had sparked Jas's interest in Irving, the sight of twenty-plus pieces of equipnt had solidified his resolution...
No matter the cost, he had to win Irving over!
