Chapter 844 Peter the Fraud
Peter was Penny's boyfriend and Penny happened to be Sasha's best friend. Upon her return from abroad, Penny
and him were joined at the hip and she wouldn't stop bragging about him when she met up with Sasha.
Back then, he had wanted to leave a good impression on Sasha, which was why he had spun several lies in the
process. One of which was his claim that he was an executive working in Carlson Group and that he was a
resident at the Grand Pavilion.
However, the perfect image he had created for himself crumbled when it was revealed that he was a foreign
tutor working in a bilingual kindergarten under Carlson Group. As soon as the truth broke out, Penny couldn't
dump him fast enough.
Presently, she leaned against Peter and beamed as she asked smugly, "So, Tate, what do you think of this fish
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthat | caught? An excellent candidate for your future brother-in-law, right?"
Tate appraised Peter with admiration as he replied approvingly, "Not bad at all. He's definitely a hundred times
better than that loser!"
Minerva knew that Tate was referring to Matthew, and she grew even more triumphant as she quipped, "Well of
course! | mean, look at me. As if that wretched woman could ever compete within the first place-she and
that loser are a perfect match if you ask me!"
Tate guffawed and turned to look at Peter in askance. "Peter, | hear that you're part of the management in
Wayne Group?"
Peter nodded with a hint of arrogance. "That's right and | just returned from abroad. Wayne Group first hired me
as an honorary advisor, but they promotedto the position of project manager soon after that. At this rate, |
could very well make it as a general manager next month! As you know, Mr. Wayne and | are close associates
outside of work."
Tate was ecstatic to hear this. As he was back for a while now, he liked to think that he had a good grasp of the
dynamics of Eastcliff's upper-crust society. From what he knew, Timothy Wayne was a formidable figure in
Eastcliff; he was probably only second to Billy Newman. No family in the Ten Greatest Families of Eastcliff could
even hope to compete with Timothy's wealth and power.
Naturally, there was a gap between Leanna and Timothy in terms of their social standing as well. Tate had been
holding a grudge against her ever since she had taken it upon herself to teach him a hard lesson, but he knew
that he was not powerful enough to seek revenge against her.
However, now that he was associating himself with Peter, he began to feel a twinge of hope. If he had Wayne
Group to back him up, his revenge against Leanna would becfeasible.
At the thought of this, Tate suppressed the urge to grin like a maniac. He inched forward in his seat and asked
Peter at a closer distance, "Do you think | could get into Wayne Group, Peter?"
Upon hearing this, Peter faltered slightly. He was only a fraud, so it wasn't like he could actually decide on Wayne
Group's human resources. However, he quickly regained his composure and answered softly, "With your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcredentials from abroad, Tate, | think you can enter Wayne Group without any problem. There's no question when
it comes to your capabilities."
An elated Tate pressed, "So, do you think you could pull sstrings and getinto the company?"
Peter shook his head ruefully. "I'm sorry, Tate, but | don't have the privilege to do that for you right now. As you
know, I'm just a project manager at the moment, and if | were to get you into the group, you would probably just
end up as my assistant..." He paused, feigning pensiveness before adding, "However, maybe when | am
promoted to a general manager next month, | could bring you in as the new project manager. Do you get what |
mean?"
As he was overjoyed by this information, Tate was practically kissing up to the other man as he replied, "Yes, |
get it. You really do have things planned out, Peter!" He couldn't begin to describe how happy he was. If he could
becthe project manager at Wayne Group, the money that could cfrom it would surely surpass the
fortune his father had amassed!
Peter, on the other hand, let out a quiet breath of relief. Thank goodness Tate isn't a very bright guy. If he had
insisted that | get him into the company, then I'd have exposed myself! He took a sip of wine to calm his nerves
before he casually asked, "Your sister mentioned that you guys are still staying at the Grand Garden, is that
right?"
