Chapter 452
“Mdm. Jones is still so young. She looks exactly the same as the time when she first became the CEO of Jones Corporation ten years ago. Her every move makes me envious.”
“Women like us will never be able to learn Mdm. Jones’ harsh methods. But why is she here right now?”
“Yeah, the Jones family didn’t manage to collaborate with Elitos, right?”
“Could it be…”
Everyone kept switching gazes between Zhenny and Adina.

The man on the stage, Earley, was the host who had organized the banquet. He walked down the stage and calmly said, “Mdm. Jones, it’s an honor for Elitos Corporation to have you take some time out of your day to attend this banquet. Someone, please get some wine for Mdm. Jones.”
Zhenny’s gaze was unfriendly, and she responded indifferently. “Don’t beat around the bush. I came today because I wanted to ask you something, Mr. Wynters. Did Elitos really decide to hire Ms. Daugherty as the chief chip designer for the project?” Earley’s voice was cold. “Elitos has made the announcement, so it’s official.”
“Good! Great!”
Zhenny did not get angry. Instead, she laughed and showed a contemptuous expression. Everyone in the hall seemed lost. They did not know what her aim was. “Ms. Daugherty, she’s come here to deal with you,” Trent moved close to Adina’s ear and softly said. It looked like he was watching a show. Adina took a sip of champagne without a care. “I don’t think I have anything to do with this.”
She relied on her own abilities to submit the bid and win it.
Mdm. Jones came to look for trouble in a public place after everything had been finalized. That would only lower her corporation’s image.
