She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 106

Evelyn’s eyes were filled with contempt.

Even if Dominic refused to divorce Melanie, it was only because of her family’s status.

It was Melanie’s father, Nathaniel, and his company that were useful to Dominic, not any charm Melanie herself possessed.

Otherwise, why would Dominic have proactively hired her as a consultant but never once considered promoting Melanie within the company?

Melanie and Evelyn stood face to face.

The two were at a standoff, the atmosphere thick with tension.

After a long moment, Melanie was the first to smile.

“Fine. I’ll go stand in the back.”

With that, she turned and walked away, heading straight for the back row.

Evelyn was taken aback.

She hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly.

Just then, Emilia deliberately approached her.

After the Hale Group went bankrupt, the regular employees were laid off, but the executives were all transferred to the Hale Health Center.

Emilia wasn’t exactly an executive, but through her connection with Evelyn, she had smoothly secured a position at the Hale Health Center as Evelyn’s assistant.

Therefore, she was also attending today's ribbon-cutting ceremony with Evelyn.

“Looks like Melanie knows her place, doesn’t she?”

Evelyn glanced at Emilia without a word, but the smug smile on her face grew wider.

Soon, the ribbon-cutting ceremony officially began.

As the general manager of the Hale Health Center, Dominic naturally stood in the central position.

Beside him was his hard-won partner—Spencer, the head of the Halevy Group.

On Dominic’s other side stood Evelyn.

Seeing Evelyn next to him didn’t strike Dominic as odd.

However, he turned his head and looked around.

For today’s grand opening, the store not only offered a variety of wellness packages for target clients to try but had also hired a chef to prepare a lavish buffet.

Gabriel was in Preston’s office.

“Bro, I gave Spencer a heads-up and asked him to look out for Ms. Royce at the ribbon-cutting. Make sure no one gives her a hard time, especially her husband’s family.”

Preston continued signing documents as he listened to Gabriel’s report, his hand never pausing.

“You have no idea how awful her in-laws are. I saw them at a function once, in the banquet hall across from ours. Every single one of them was picking on Ms. Royce. It makes me angry just thinking about it…”

The pen suddenly stopped, though there were still many documents left to sign.

The atmosphere in the office grew heavy. Gabriel swallowed nervously, looked at Preston, and asked cautiously, “…Bro, did I say something wrong?”
