Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 268

268 Willing To Lose

Ben carefully examined the photographs in the newspaper. His face turned pale as he recognized a few of the big shots on them.

His brother persisted in questioning him, "Hey! What on earth are you doing? I've already told you that those small companies will not pose threats to us! So, you don't have to make things difficult for them!"

Ben then said, somewhat awkwardly, "I'm so sorry! | had no idea Anna knew so many famous people! Ada told me that she was just Wayne's ex-girlfriend. So, | thought she was just an ordinary woman."

Surprised, Ben's brother looked at him and inquired, "Ada? Are you still seeing that actress? Jesus Christ! Are you f*****g. insane?!"

Ben's brother interrupted his defense by saying, "Ben, you don't come to work these days. You should reflect on what you've done!"’

The man then exited the office, slamming the office door shut behind him.

Furious, Ben ripped the newspaper into pieces and threw it in the trash can. At that moment, his phone rang.

When he saw who was calling, his face darkened, and he answered it immediately.

He asked impatiently, "Have you not seen the news, Ada? Why do you still have the nerves to call me?"

Ada froze for a moment before saying sweetly, "Don't be so

mad at me! You see, you now know who is supporting your competitor. Actually, | believe this is a good thing.”

Ben grunted before saying, "What? Do you believe this is good? Don't be ridiculous! For God's sake, I'm not that stupid! My brother yelled the s**t out of me just now!"

"Well, you shouldn't get mad about that! See, you're scolding me right now, but I'm still cheering you up, aren’t I?"

Ben froze when he heard her words, and then smiled as he was delighted.

He apologized to her by saying, "Sorry, | was in a bad mood just now. Ada, where are you now? I'll pick you up later.”

“I'm ina bar close to your office. Don't worry, | already have a booth reserved for us. I'll sit here and wait for you, okay?"

Ben was beaming as they hung up their phone call. He was totally different from when he was enraged and upset moments before.

Ben then grabbed his jacket and walked out of his office.

Ada's great strength was knowing exactly what she had to say.

Plus, she could make men smile with just a few words. And she was extremely good at coaxing men into doing what she wanted. Ben had taken a loss this time, but he was glad to do it because he was doing it for her.

After the press conference, Ryan sacked the few traitors in the company, including Oscar, for Anna.

Although this shambles had already sparked heated debate over the city, it was only the beginning.

Anna invited everyone who had helped her to dinner at a

nearby restaurant in the evening. After dinner, Anna dropped Selina home.

On the way, Selina expressed concern for her and said, "So, if you want to solve the problems of the Gabriel group, you can do as you like. | know I can't stop you no matter how much I don't want you to. But, | have to make it clear to you that the Gabriel Group is now like a worm- eaten tree, and the senior staff are pure evil. So, | believe the first thing you should do is fire all of them."
