Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 304

Cordelia froze, feeling embarrassed, as she listened to the comments around her.

Donald rolled his eyes arrogantly as he spoke. His assistants made way for him, and he rushed for the door.

When they left, an assistant ran into Cordelia. It was unknown whether that was intentional. Cordelia lost her balance and nearly fell, dropping the interview equipment in her hands.

“Hey, what are you doing?!” Her cameraman was angry for her.

Cordelia stopped him. “Forget it…”

“Wahl Street elite? This is the kind of people Wahl Street has?”

“Alright, let’s not argue with them here,” Cordelia said softly. “We won’t get anything out of the crowd here. We’ll only be embarrassing ourselves if we keep making a fuss. Would you want to get scolded by the chief editor?

“I heard you have a finance talk here, Mr. West,” Janine answered flatly. “So I’m here to learn!”

“You must be joking, Madam Baker! What are my petty skills before you?”

Janine removed her sunglasses. Her gaze was indecipherable as she wore a smirk like she was angry but not. The impact of her presence made it too scary for one to act boldly in front of her.

“You’re too humble!” Janine looked at him. “An elite back from Wahl Street. Your experience in investing must be a lot more than ours.”

“You’re flattering me…”
