Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon) novel Chapter 273

Shirley was here?

Where?

Could it be that the mysterious Shirley was actually plain and unattractive?

Was that why she had been hiding and too afraid to go up against Janice, whose influence was growing stronger by the day?

Everyone had their thoughts and their agendas. If given the chance, they would definitely go all out to poach Shirley.

Janice, on the other hand, was impossible to recruit. With her rumored relationship with Prosper Stitch Group's chairman practically confirmed, no one dared to try and steal her away.

Seated quietly on the outskirts of the crowd, Louis watched the scene unfold with amusement.

"She really is beautiful," he murmured in genuine admiration.

When they had crossed paths during the international championship, she hadn't looked this radiant. Her complexion had been paler, her energy dimmer.

"Betrayed by her boyfriend, left with almost nothing… and yet she turned around and secured the backing of a massive corporation. All without ever using her looks as a bargaining chip."

Louis was a contradiction.

When he was cruel, he was ruthless. But when he appreciated someone, that appreciation was entirely genuine. A woman like Janice—now that was charisma.

At the center of the room, Celine took charge of the moment. "Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to formally introduce someone to you."

All eyes snapped to her.

Standing beside Janice, Celine smiled. "The woman standing next to me is not only Ms. Janice Smith of Prosper Stitch Group but also the legendary Shirley Olson."

For a long moment, there was absolute silence. Nobody moved. They were too busy processing the shock.

Janice was Shirley?

The same Shirley who had single-handedly revived the declining crochet industry and brought it back into the global spotlight?

So… Janice was with Prosper Stitch Group.
