Chapter 27

Jenny POV:

As I scrolled through my phone, I saw the trending video of Mr. Alex Grande and me staring at each other. The staff gathered around, their eyes wide with excitement.

"I know this person," Tyla said, her voice filled with awe. "He's the richest billionaire in the country, and he owns Grande's Groups."

My dad's eyes narrowed. "Billionaire? Is he the one who told that lady to pay you one million dollars for slapping you, Jenny?"

I nodded, feeling a mix of emotions. "Yes."

The staff started buzzing, their comments overlapping. "Jenny met him? That's amazing!" "One million dollars? That's incredible!" "He must have been impressed by her!"

I shook my head, trying to clarify. "He doesn't like me. He just did it because I'm friends with his sister, Annie, and I had saved her once."

Judy, who had been quiet until now, spoke up in shock. "You're friends with Annie?"
